The moon enters Libra, an air sign, near 8am this morning. If you need a chance to sit back and assess the action of this past week, this moon helps us to weigh things out in our mind. Libra is ruled by Venus—adding a more beautiful, romantic and non-confrontational tone to our attitude.
Is real life hard right now? Over the next 3 days, the Leo Sun makes a Quincunx to Neptune. The desire to escape is strong. With Neptune in the mix, there is a risk of being deceived. Use common sense and look for facts. Someone tries to convince you of something that may not be entirely true. Or, we could deceive ourselves. If you feel the need to escape, make safe choices. Be cautious with drugs and alcohol. Lean into Virgo energy to make detailed plans and sane choices.
The Sun is making positive aspects to the transit Lunar Nodes. Our instincts are enlightened. Today helps us focus on what we need to buy, get rid of, and prepare for as we walk into the last third of this year.
This could be a great weekend to clean out your closet. The Moon is in Libra, Mars and Mercury are still in Virgo, and Venus is deep into it’s retrograde cycle.
Go back over what you kept from last fall/winter season, look through what you are currently wearing, and create a more functional and streamlined wardrobe. You may discover some beautiful outfits from the past you had laid aside.
Shopping for new items isn’t always favored during a Venus retrograde, but redoing what you already have could be a good choice as we head into fall. Virgo helps us make a list of what we still need, so we can use our funds wisely when Venus goes direct on September 3rd.
On October 9th, Venus officially leaves it’s shadow. This will be the time to find beautiful items again. Doing the legwork now will help you have a more clear idea of what you need to purchase to put your best foot forward.
The mood around 4:44pm EST is more sombre and subdued. There could be frustration with current situations as the moon makes a quincunx to Saturn. There could be responsibilities getting in the way of your emotional needs. Be patient with loneliness in relationships due to situations outside of your control.
Find a creative outlet. There is still a lot of positivity in the air with a grand trine. Squares from Uranus and Jupiter to the sun and Venus can bring up the vibe with unexpected surprises.
Have a great Saturday.
