By 7 AM PDT the Moon quincunxes the North Node, squares Juno, and trines Mercury, giving West Coasters a brisk and perhaps challenging start to the day; for everyone, it’s a gauntlet that requires course adjustments and a re-visioning of what makes for empowerment–but at least communication and information will flow. Don’t be so distracted by difficulties that you fail to realize how much you’ve been able to learn; it’s all info that will come in handy in the near future.

From roughly 1 PM to 4:30 PM PDT the Moon joins Vesta and adds Lunar energy to the T of the sacred square the opposition of Sedna and Pallas. This lights up a situation that already exists but suddenly feels in need of attention; simply put our values, home circumstance, and/ or sex life is under stress because we just can’t see what the wise thing to do is. Unfortunate, but if we can step outside ourselves and draw on past experience we may be empowered to deal with things successfully (Juno sextile South Node).

By 6:30 PM the Leo Moon trines Venus, making for a great time to socialize, or to ask for what we want; in general, assertive energies are rewarded, though going overboard in exercising ambition or Will will almost certainly lead us toward delusion (Zeus sesquiquadrate Neptune).

By 11 PM the Moon opposes Neptune and quincunxes Uranus, bringing danger of true emotional confusion that leads to impulsiveness–obviously, sit tight through this if possible. As of 12:30 AM on the 27th the Moon opposes Chiron–we just don’t need to experience this hurt, if we’ll only put our skills to work to employ the energy in our favor.

Void begins 1:59 AM PDT of the 27th, with a Leo Moon that will make no more aspects a great time to retire the ego and abandon the push forward, if only until the Moon enters Virgo at 3:57 AM PDT.
