2 AM PST on the 11th that tart of an Aquarian Moon (no disrespect meant, native Lunar Aquarians, it’s just that the Aquarius Moon favors the smart, the fashionable, the forward thinking, and that’s a recipe for cheeky!) trines Saturn in Libra, which gently but firmly puts the brakes on Aquarius’ party; it’s a great time, actually, to re-consider the emotional landscape, as it slows things (especially the mind) down just enough to allow pondering, without robbing us of any clarity of sight or acuity of thought.

The Moon moves on to sextile Arian Venus, exact just after 8 AM PST, and for West Coasters starts the day off swimmingly, at least if we are able to make a little effort to get the love out (or to let it in). For everyone else, it marks a pleasant point; time something meaningful for this aspect’s duration to get the most from its ability to deliver what we value.

By 4 PM PST the sassy Moon squares Juno in Taurus, and may run into trouble; emotions conflict with those interested in exerting power over us. We resist, and tantrums or intellectually-rooted arguments are possible, and this may be over possessions or assets (Taurus). At this point there’s a Grand Trine involving Pallas, the Sun/ Uranus, and the South Node, and this suggests wisdom gleaned from the past may serve us well in choosing which parts of the individuality to assert at this time.

We get a long spell to sort out our feelings, and by noon of the 12th the Moon forms a quincunx to the South Node; this indicates that, between the 4 PM aspect to Juno the previous day and noon of the next we are still dealing with personal power and empowerment issues, and the noon quincunx calls us to a final adjustment of attitudes driven by feeling. We may not deal with this actively, but we’ll notice the difference in our perceptions once the quincunx is over, the end result a mini-evolution in both mental and emotional viewpoint.
