Monday morning, Mercury moves from its own rule in Gemini to Moon-rule in Cancer. It does so under a Jupiter-ruled Sagittarius Moon heading into trine with Aries Chiron. I guess we’d better get up, get going, and learn something uplifting!

Need to feel capable? The evidence is there if you’re looking deep within and doing the work. Additionally, the Sun sextiles Saturn through Tuesday, so endurance stabilizes the plot.

By nighttime, the Moon moves to solid, Saturn-ruled Capricorn and an opposition to Mercury. The impact of words, of what is sensed, of attitudes and emotional conversations is heavy. It can either weigh you down or it can steady your little boat in the big, big water. Choose wisely. If it goes one way, it can still go another. It’s your story. Don’t give up control too easily, and not without a tangible benefit.

Mercury in Cancer squares Aries Neptune through Wednesday night, so certainty just isn’t a thing. But creative thinking is. So is testing. If you don’t know and you’re not sure you’re getting the truth? Go check. Is it easier to put that off and delude yourself into thinking it will all work out? It sure is.

Tuesday’s Capricorn Moon moves from a square to Neptune into trine with Taurus Mars: a perfect time to walk that talk. Just start moving, even if the destination is unclear. Later the Cap Moon squares Aries Saturn, and if you’re tired from personal effort? It feels a lot better than it will if you’re not. Weary is much better than irritable or stuck.

On Wednesday, the Cap Moon opposes Cancer Venus then goes on to oppose Cancer Jupiter (squaring Aries Chiron overnight). Are you investing your efforts wisely? Even if the answer is yes, nobody’s perfect; and you’re likely to spot, experience, or feel your errors. With Mercury-Neptune culminating, though, you may not catch them right away. Or you might not yet be getting to the truth. What’s the point? Don’t ignore a feeling you’re missing something. Even if you can’t put your finger on it now, fold in your current insights for later.

After Mercury-Neptune peaks, Mercury begins a square to Saturn. Whether or not you’ve got your finger on the true pulse yet, shades of reality are shifting, blending, and bleeding behind the scenes. Be purposeful and methodical in your approach, and try to be precise and responsible in your own communications and calculations. Whatever you’re saying, suggesting or asking, remember how it feels to be on the receiving end. If you’ve got hold of a sensitive subject, take things slowly.

Thursday morning’s Capricorn Moon closes the square to Chiron then heads into Aquarius to trine Uranus: a breath of fresh air! The relief of release is freeing! The Moon goes on to sextile Neptune and conjoin Pluto. Creativity is cleansing, and a mood of intense diffusion doubles its impact.

Friday’s Aquarius Moon sextiles Aries Saturn, squares Taurus Mars, then trines the Gemini Sun by afternoon. The Moon goes on to quincunx Cancer Venus overnight. Airy confidence may stumble on a fixed pace, but keep your eyes on the prize and you’ll get there exhilarated!
