Weekly January 2nd

Monday

We start the first full week of 2012 with Aries Moon. It's an action starting sign, and today the Moon is in harmony with Mercury in Sagittarius. We'll want to move, travel, get things accomplished or at least started. Anything that helps avoid boredom will seem like a good idea. Aries is competitive and also likes to have fun, so games and contests will draw lots of participation! It's also a good day to run, exercise and otherwise get physical energy going and boost metabolism if you've overindulged or been feeling sluggish.  Tonight the Moon will shift to Taurus, grounding us in reality, spotlighting goals and steps toward things we want to accomplish.  Build, create and organize, tonight.  Wear green.

Tuesday

The Moon is in Taurus for well thought out decisions and steps toward important goals.  Taurus Moon time helps with long term decisions. Break a habit and form a plan for when you get weak and may fall back. It's also a great day to adopt new habits or routines you hope to stick with! Taurus Moon favors builders and one aspect of the day relates to expansion and adding on. Begin construction or finish the job! Others who work with their hands are also influence positively by Taurus Moon, but it's also a sign of singers and speakers. Prepare something that needs to be rehearsed and performed soon.  Today is meant to be constructive. Tonight can be productive too, but Taurus Moon also values comfort and pleasure and we're likely to be seeking whatever feels good once we can justify that some work is done.  Wear brown.

Wednesday

The Moon stays in Taurus. Our stubborn tendencies can help us persevere with decisions we've made, habits we're trying to break, and New Year's resolutions, if that's the case. Taurus Moon influences a hands-on, how to approach to problems and other work.  The Taurus Moon activates the five senses and being immersed in cooking, cleaning or enjoying the results of that kind of activity.  As we move toward a Full Moon in a few days, it will feel satisfying to see some tangible results of projects or plans we've taken on since December's New Moon.  Routine and familiar surroundings work best for most of us tonight. Wear blue.

Thursday

The Moon moves to Gemini at 5:44 am after squaring Neptune. It could be a day where con artists and manipulators show their skills. Neptune is the planet of illusions so stay sharp and think about anything you're agreeing to! The Moon and Uranus form a sextile which creates fertile conditions for surprises too. We need to think on our feet in these situations. Lots of news, talk & discussion is likely today! Respond carefully to communications. We might tend to speak or write too impulsively.  Tonight is social. Use caution where trust is a potential pitfall. Things may not be as they seem or could move very quickly and out of the blue. Wear yellow.

Friday

The Moon is straightforward in Gemini moving information and news through the proper channels today.  Act on opportunities, pay attention to emails, paperwork, the calendar and generally catch up or keep up. With a Full Moon arriving Sunday overnight into Monday, we may need to tie up loose ends, get ready for announcements and finalize things that are due. Come up with a plan or an answer to a looming question.  Tonight the Moon works with Venus which is great for socializing and fairly good for love and romance.  The Moon is also square to Mars and we may tend to get into discussions that could lead to disagreements.  Try not to let things escalate.  Wear red.

Saturday

The Moon starts out in Gemini and moves to Cancer after a short void of course Moon from 2:52 to 4:05 pm. The zodiac is busy with various Moon and planetary aspects and it's most notable that Mercury engages with the Moon, Saturn and Neptune indicating ideas and decisions, lots of discussion and negotiation, and in some case debates. Structuring our plans and thoughts to bring them to reality is the goal. With a Full Moon in the wee hours of Monday (EST) it's likely that decisions and answers are necessary sooner than later.  Like yesterday pay attention to news, communications, and facts and figures that could be important to your plans. The Cancer Moon is low key in terms of social plans and we may opt for home and family over bigger nights out.  Today's color is silver.

Sunday

The Cancer Moon will be Full over night tonight and our emotional energy is strong! The Full Moon in her home sign is intense and our consscious and subconscious feelings could be over active. Situations could get dramatic and things may be exaggerated so take a breather if conversations get overheated.  Mercury dominates this entire weekend, moving to Capricorn today where the planet of communication is somewhat conservative about announcements and decisions, yet ambitious in nature.  Mercury and Jupiter conspire in a positive way if you're looking for opportunities, want to build something and are willing to put in the effort. Mercury also squares Uranus which can be a curve ball and with the Full Moon this increases the chance of big news, more than likely not what was expected. Avoid arguements as they could spiral out of control.  Home and family matters are ruled by Cancer Moon, so they are likely to peak now with things that have been in progress. The Moon is Full at 2:30 am EST, technically tomorrow.  Wear white.

Weekly December 26th

Thanks for a record year of visits to Robin's Zodiac Zone! Here's to an exciting, happy 2012!

Monday

The Capricorn Moon is void of course from 8:36 am to 12:14 pm EST. Those hours are best for relaxing or doing only the most routine work. The Aquarius Moon moves in then and helps us envision what's next.  The Moon squares Jupiter and we want to trim the fat, take a more global view, and get out of emotionally charged situations.  Aquarius Moon prefers a detached point of view and a perspective on what's good for everyone. Sort things out and take a constructive approach with things this afternoon and tonight.  The Moon and Uranus favor what's new, spontaneous, and innovative.  The Moon moves toward Venus for a very good social evening. Wear turquoise blue.

Tuesday

The Moon and Venus meet helping love and relationship particularly for Leos in long term relationships and Aquarius generally. Libras who are single will appreciate the favorable conditions for meeting someone new and socializing with friends too. It's a day for dates! The Moon works with Mercury in Sagittarius favoring travels and getting out of routines. Plan or take an adventure today or tonight! Keep an open mind as the Moon and planets are urging new experiences so far this week. Wear pink.

Wednesday

The Moon is in Aquarius until 6:46 pm EST. Design and act on plans for now and the future. It's an optimistic Aquarius Moon meeting Neptune and forming a trine with Saturn. This is balanced since Neptune provides tha imagination and magic while Saturn keeps it real and helps us not to get caught up in delusions. The Moon is void of course from 4:31 to 6:45 pm and then in Pisces. Pisces is a much more emotional sign and we tend to personalize things in every way. Fortunately the Moon and Jupiter work together tonight for generosity and understanding and a willingness to compromise and solve problems. It's a creative night too. The Sun approaches Pluto in Capricorn and we'll  have a strong urge to get organized and get any chaos under control. Wear green.

Thursday

The Sun and Pluto meet in Capricorn. It's seriously ambitious and a good time for a business decision. Expect some bold moves this week. Capricorn this is an excellent aspect for you, helping with breakthroughs, self expression and focus.  Cancer, those types of breakthroughs may relate to long term  partnerships and where they should be heading.  Sagittarius, business is your focus at the moment.  The Pisces Moon aspects both Sun and Pluto too, and Pisces it's a time of news, travels, and branding your ideas, starting a blog for example or engaging in a marketing plan or even creating a new resume for future opportunities.  No matter what your sign, consider those things with activity in business like Capricorn and creative, versatile Pisces.  Wear gold.

Friday

The Pisces Moon is void of course for almost the entire day, from 8:37 am until 4:48 am tomorrow.  Our best judgment is better left for tomorrow. It's an ideal vacation day, with relaxation and recreational pastimes most in favor.  The Moon is opposite Mars and square to Mercury so we might have to work to avoid arguments and overly emotional scenes.  The drama potential is a bit high.  Being flexible will help, but keep good boundaries since we can be takne4 advantage of with all this activity in the mutable signs. We may tend to give in too easily to dominant or persevering personalities.  Say no if you want to. Ask forgiveness if you need to. It's not a good day for promises. Stay flexible. Wear blue.

Saturday

The Moon is in Aries meeting Uranus which can make for a wild, surprising New Years Eve. Events and traits will range from fun and inspired to crazy and chaotic. Take precautions in any situation that could  be risky. Keep your head up and watch out for each other. Games will be very competitive and in some cases people will be relentless about winning or getting their way.  Tonight, the Aries Moon squares Pluto in Capricorn and there's a controlling streak. Put effort in to make progress with either personal or business matters.  On this NYE, changing things up, starting new traditions, and making active, outgoing plans is favored. It is truly a party night, but stay safe! We can be impulsive and adventurous to a fault on nights like this. Wear red.

Sunday

Mercury squares Mars in Virgo and the Sun overnight. These squares can put is at odds. Choose your words carefully and pick your battles. Some people will just be nitpicky or nagging. The Aries Moon gets along with Venus in Aquarius as the day goes on. It's a good time to ask or do a favor, get friendly advice, and socialize.  For New Years Day, it's kind of a mixed bag of influences, but that Aries Moon motivates and influences us toward new, groundbreaking actions and breakthroughs of all kinds.  Wear yellow.

Weekly December 19th

Monday

The Moon is in Libra, sign of harmony and balance. That's what we strive for today, and it's compounded by Saturn also in Libra working with the Sun. Saturn practically insists on fairness and even the most independent or detached of us should find a way to fulfill obligations, help someone else out, and even compromise what we really want in the name of doing what's right. Sagittarius and Gemini might take a fresh perspective on something of that nature. Libra is a musical sign and an air sign, full of gracefulness, so music and dance will feel good today.  If legal matters are pending it's a good time to give them attention and maybe even reach settlements. Tonight the Libra Moon is social although business will come first and it's likely to be personal and serious. Pisces and Aries should take financial and partnership decisions very seriously. Wear white.

Tuesday

There's so much going on in the zodiac, consider this a busy and changeable day! Venus, the planet of love and harmony, moves to Aquarius where she's still not in romance mode. Venus in Aquarius helps us detach where we need to, get out of dramatic relationship patterns, give caring advice, and foster friendships and community. The Moon moves to Scorpio at 5:33 am, opposite Jupiter in Taurus, and all this fixed sign energy is persistent but stubborn. Strong personalities, Taurus, Scorpio and others, may have big things to work through today.  We may need to scale down, avoid excess, and allow others their space. It's not a day to push hard or pressure anyone.  It is a good day to plant seeds that can grow, literally or figuratively. Work with focus and if the conditions are right, enjoy the Sun and Neptune's friendly vibes from Sagittarius and Aquarius. They urge us to find some escape and break from the many serious aspects in the heavens this week. Venus and Jupiter form a square and with effort we can achieve better personal relationships tonight. Taurus and Aquarius host that action, and Leo and Scorpio may find this true in love and partnership. Wear pink.

Wednesday

Today is the first day of Hanukkah and the eve of the Solstice. The Scorpio Moon is spiritual and in tune.  It's a day of focus and also strong intuition. Trust your gut.  Venus and Uranus mix it up in Aquarius and Aries, stimulating new friendships and relationships. Unlikely combinations form, between people and in general. Today has an experimental nature.  The Moon and Mars in Virgo activate our practical and analytical sides too. It's a decent day for most tasks, business and other activities.  Get at what needs the most attention. In some time zones, the Solstice is tonight as the Sun enters Capricorn for the official start to winter after midnight EST. Wear red.

Thursday

The Winter Solstice arrives as the Sun moves to Capricorn at 12:30 am. The Sun is in harmony with Jupiter today in the earth signs. This is a mark of fortune and prosperity, favoring and feeling good to Capricorn, Virgo and Taurus, and potentially benefiting Aries, Leo and Sagittarius in terms of money, gifts and other abundance.  Cancer and Scorpio may enjoy this with regard to long term love and family relationships.  For all of us it's meant to be productive, decisive and prosperous so go for that pot of gold.  The Sun also mixes it up with Uranus in Aries for lighting strikes of inspiration and bursts of news and surprises, some of which may require adjustment in ways of dealing or thinking.  It's all in the name of progress, however that doesn't make all surprises easy to deal with at first. Let news settle in before over reacting. The Moon moves into Sagittarius at 7:03 am after a couple of void of course hours.  The day may be somewhat unsettled at the start.  It's a day of exploring and travels and movement in general. We'll break out of stuck places.  Tonight the Moon meets Mercury for planning and educational decisions, and travels.  Wear purple.

Friday

The Sagittarius Moon is moving things along at a fast pace, possibly without a schedule or plan to stick with. It's a "seat of your pants" kind of day, full of change and spontaneity.  The Moon squares Mars in Virgo and we'll be analyzing situations and trying to choose the best solutions to problems or changes that come up without warning. Virgo is a practical place for a very assertive planet, and balancing a Sagittarius carefree attitude with what has to be taken care of is the ideal result today.  Otherwise things we don't see eye to eye on could create confrontations.  Allowing for change is necessary with the action in mutable signs.  Holding someone to a plan may be difficult.  Make adjustments.  Go on a field trip. It's another day of travel and movement and changing minds.  Get ready for a New Moon tomorrow. Wear pink.

Saturday

After 2 hours void of course the Moon moves to Capricorn at 8:47 am EST and reaches New Moon status at 1:06 pm. Last month we had a solar eclipse at New Moon time, so today and the days just ahead vibrate with change, new developments and potentially unexpected news.  The New Moon in Capricorn sets us up for resolutions before New Years.  Making tangible, physical, practical changes, such as lifestyle shifts or business plans makes good sense.  As far as the holidays, Hanukkah and Christmas both, tradition is favored by Capricorn Moon. Create a comfortable, simple atmosphere.  The Moon and Pluto can be a bit dark or mysterious together and those two meet tonight. Deep feelings come up.  New Moon in Capricorn relates to love and friendship for Virgo, a look toward outside or distant opportunities for Taurus, home and family for Libra, and close partnerships and relationships for Cancer.  Today's color is white.

Sunday

The New Moon continues to fuel and initiate changes today. The Moon and Mars work in earth signs for a grounded feeling. Hands on approaches, reorganization, and tradition work well, and we'll be most comfortable with what we're accustomed to. While personal and business changes mark this New Moon time, we won't want to mess with holiday traditions! Pleasures of the senses, the sounds, smells, and feelings associated with the season, will make us happy. Games and movement will feel good as Mars the physical planet is involved with the Capricorn Moon. Wear blue.

Today has a sentimental streak and we'll feel things deeply.  The Moon working with Mars helps with accomplishments and urges helpfulness and service.Virgo and Cancer friends may team up, collaborate and do favors.  Capricorn is likely to feel the pull of bigger and better things or greener pastures and may want to start exploring those options.  This is the last full day of Mercury retrograde so line up new plans to be initiated soon.  Wear black.

Tuesday

The Moon is in Cancer, void of course from 11:05 am to 4:48 pm.  Serious attitudes and matters come up this morning as the Moon squares Jupiter and Saturn. Explore possible, productive solutions and save taking action for when Mercury retrograde ends tonight at 8:43 pm.  The last day of the retrograde is know n for being one of the most confusing or intense, so take today easy and don't be pressured for decisions or your word.  The Leo Moon tonight wants to have fun and shake things up, working in tandem with Uranus in Aries and Mercury as the retrograde ends.  Forward movement is imminent and that feeling something is about to happen is in the air!  Wear purple.

Wednesday

The Leo Moon works with no interference or help from other planets today.  Leo Moon likes activity and action. We tend to be optimistic on days like this. Get something started. It's prime time to get rid of things or situations you don't need while the Leo Moon is waning.  Sports, games, and performing in or attending performaces are well timed with this Leo Moon. If you're a Cancer this could be a good business day. Scorpio, do something good for your image or make a good impression at any kind of public event or presentation. Gemini, it's a day of writing and contacting or being contacted by family and people you can network with, both. Tonight is a social evening out, but Leo Moon time is also good for studies. Today's color is orange.

Thursday

The Moon is in Leo in harmony with the Sagittarius Sun! Learning, exploring, refreshing things, and creativity in general should be at a high point.  Saturn weighs in from Libra reminding us of responsibilities and urging us to keep it fair and structured.  This is a good day for most anything from serious business or test taking to games and general fun. When the Moon is in Leo we need at least some time to goof off. Leo Moon is also a generous time and charitable work or events are favored. Tonight the Moon is opposite Neptune for romance and imagination. But our judgment can be clouded. If trust is an issue err on the side of caution.  It's a music and movie type night. The Leo Moon works with Jupiter for social attitudes and optimism. The Moon is void of course from 8:20 to 10:58 pm. Wear navy blue.

Friday

Find a sense of accomplishment. It's a business day for Aquarius and Leo.

We all need to give attention to the details and correct errors.  Wear black.

Saturday

It's Virgo Moon in the 4th quarter of the lunar cycle. The Moon meets Mars really activating problem solving, planning, and work on tasks large and small. Eliminating what you don't need, from items to distractions or even negative personal connections, is also today's mission.  The Virgo Moon helps us analyze what's needed and what isn't working.  There's a flexible attitude, or if you can muster one up it will be helpful. In fact, we tend to want to ptich in when the Moon is in Virgo, and this is a good day to get someone to volunteer, do a favor, or give some assistance with a job or project.  The Moon works with Venus tonight making it a nice date night, especially for Taurus, Virgo, and Pisces.  The Moon is void of course from 9:29 pm until 3:06 am helping us relax, socialize or even catch up on routine things.  Wear brown.

The Libra Moon strives for peace and balance and a sensible attitude. But Uranus rebels against the norm and inititates events and news. Pluto brings up secrets and things we've tried to hide.  Negotiating these waters and trying to weigh out options and make good decisions is in the forecast for today.  Venus and Saturn especially activate relationship burdens, obligations or disagreements. Cancer and Aries may notice this along with Capricorn and Libra who host that planetary square.  If you can be fair and discriminating, problems might be minimized or solved more easily. Try not to judge too harshly today.  Wear lavender.

Weekly December 5th

Monday

The Moon is in action starting Aries experiencing no interference or influence from other planets. All Aries traits and activities are prominent today. Be careful about selfishness. Enjoy a dose of motivation, inspiration and action. A good game is well timed with Aries Moon. Feeling competitive can be another effect.  Venus and Mars work happily together in earth signs Capricorn and Virgo, helping us work together particularly as couples. Reach a temporary agreement about something that affects both of you. Enjoy time with friends and significant others as that trine favors just getting along and finding common ground. Venus is also favoring decorators, designers, painters and others who create beautiful and functional environments or creations.  Tonight is good for making things or making things happen, but keep Mercury retrograde in mind and leave the right to change your opinion or strategy later if you want to. Wear pink.

Tuesday

The Aries Moon is void of course from 6:13 to 9:34 am. Sometimes that means a slow start or mistakes due to forgetfulness or impulsivity. Slow down and think as you get started today.  Saturn opposed the Moon overnight and we might wake up with fairness on our minds, including situations that are imbalanced where one of us is giving in too much or taking more than a fair share of the work on.  Set something right today. The Moon moves to Taurus and meets Jupiter which is fortunate and makes us feel good generally. The down side is excess. Avoid going too far or indulging too much. Take advantage of the positive work or career asepct if you're an Aries or a Leo, and good feelings in relationships if you're Scorpio or Capricorn, for example. It's a day to try and increase prosperity or create a more favorable situation. Tonight the Moon works with Pluto, helping us solve and resolve things that have been up in the air and needed practical solutions. Wear green.

Wednesday

The Taurus Moon blends well with Mars in Virgo and Venus in Capricorn. As we head for a Saturday Full Moon, the productive, sensible combination of earth sign influences is good! Full Moon deadlines and events may not be helped much by Mercury retrograde and we could be experiencing blocks and delays. Find some temporary plans and solutions to get you through to December 13th when the retrograde ends and more permanent plans will be in better favor.  Relationships are boosted for Scorpio and Cancer among others, and Virgo and Cancer enjoy friends and gatherings mid week.  Tonight, social plans with close friends and small groups, for example dinner with friends or family, are well timed. It can be a decent work night too. Wear brown.

The Moon is in Taurus until 6:39 pm EST. The Taurus Moon is solid, hard working and warm. It's meant to be a day of steady progress and accomplishment and simple pleasures.  The Moon is warming up for Full Moon in Gemini and working toward deadlines or with some pressure will be common through the weekend. Hands on work , building and creative arts are favored today.  Mental work may be more of a challenge. Finding all the information you need may be challenging now with Mercury retrograde and the Moon squaring Neptune which means be careful what or whom you believe. Taht goes for tonight too, especially as the Moon is void of course from 6:39 to 9:52 pm EST.  Be very careful about promises made or gossip or secrets revealed.  Hold information close and don't say more than you need to. The Moon moves to Gemini at 9:52 pm and combines with Uranus in Aries for a very changeable and surprising evening.  Sagittarius will experience this with lovers or friends and Aquarius may find friends unreliable.  Take it easy tonight if you can.

Friday

It's Full Moon time, with the Gemini lunar eclipse and Full Moon at 9:36 am tomorrow morning. The Moon is opposite Mercury really intensifying the retrograde now. A return to old business, attempts to resolve things and find compromise, and the return of faces and places from the past is prominent today and tomorrow. A lunar eclipse will give everything a big push, and we may be asked to do something long before we expected or receive big news. A Gemini Moon relates to our siblings and cousins, to everything we put in writing, and to the vehicles we commute in and communicate with.  Back things up, double check, and be very careful with the written and spoken word. The chance of being misunderstood or misquoted is higher than usual!  The weekend is very likely to be newsworthy, and eclipses usually bring events we didn't acticipate or create conditions where what we expect happens more quickly! Tonight people from the past return to our circles, and Aquarius and Leo experience this with friends while Pisces or Aries may hear from long lost family. The Moon squares Mars in Virgo and attempts at problem solving could seem like wasted energy. Wear yellow.

Saturday

The Moon is Full in Gemini, sign of news, communication of all kinds, brothers and sisters, and travels. This is also a lunar eclipse, bringing drama, eventfulness, possibly conclusions, and as always Full Moon deadlines.  It's a very busy Full Moon, and if you feel frantic, anxious or overworked, that's common with Gemini Full Moon.  Mercury is retrograde and it's not time to act yet. Save decisions and forward momentum for mid week if possible.  Try not to base decisions on high pressure or anxiety.The lunar eclipse relates to women and girls in our lives, and Cancer, Gemini and Sagittarius most prominently.  This is about business, money and employment for Taurus and Scorpio. Sagittarius is most likely to have significant relationship happenings either directly or because of a significant other and developments in his or her life.  Virgo, this is a career Moon and you need to put yourself in the best possible stnading and shine!  This Full Moon is loikely to be tough on our nerves.  Don't subject yourself to unnecessary stress or to dramatic people. Wear silver.

Sunday

The Moon is void of course from 5:24 am to 8:26 am and then moves to Cancer. The emotional nature the Full Moon continues and so does the news. However the Moon in harmony with Jupiter in Taurus helps ground us in reality. Begin to look at real options, forward  movement, and an end to Mercury retrograde delays or hijacks soon. It's a good time to refocus and plan for your next move then see how things look around Wednesday.  That will be a better time to shop, make permanent decisions and have heart to heart talks.  Today may feel like an emotional rollercoaster, but the Cancer Moon does help us get a handle on how we really feel! Cook comfort food, enjoy family dinner and time with those you feel closest to.  Enjoy the arts and performances or engage insome creative work. Mercury retrograde ends Tuesday. Wear white.
