We usher in Monday, the 7th of June, PDT as the Aries Moon is moving out of opposition to Zeus, and forming a T-square with the Nodal axis. At least the latter portion of the weekend likely dealt with a reckoning over the ambitions and desire nature of others versus our own feelings on the matter–and no one won, with both sides a wee bit exhausted. The T suggests that the confrontation did tip the balance of power, as well as the direction each party is headed, though in what way we can’t be certain, only that future action will change due to today’s events (Cardinal T). By 6 AM PDT the Moon is sextile the Sun, and so trine Earth, suggesting that we can strike a good mixture of feeling, awareness, and material productivity in this period–this sets the tone for the day, at least on the West Coast.

By 5 PM-ish PDT the Moon is in position for a square to Venus, and a semi-sextile to Sedna. We may bristle at relationship dynamics and feel a bit unrewarded, overall, but the truth is we just won’t see the true state of things, so keep reactions bland and to a minimum–there’s nothing worse than jumping to conclusions that we may find later did not really apply.

The 2 AM hour sees the Moon semi-sextile Mercury and quincunx Saturn–isn’t this just shorthand to keep it to ourselves?  A vow to adjust ourselves to the reality picture, and to stay loose and flexible with the messages we receive (and to keep our own communications to a minimum) should avoid trouble. Speaking out may be more aggressive than we actually intend it to be (Aries placement) and the emotions may spur us to ‘defend’ ourselves when there’s no real attack under way.

5 AM or so PDT the Moon sextiles Neptune–we can trust our feelings at this point only if we have united them firmly with our ideals–otherwise we may smilingly aggress based on deception, an illusion, or confusion. By 7 AM the Moon is trine Ceres and sextile Juno, which themselves are in exact (and I do mean exact) opposition, setting the tone for the day of the 8th: power confrontations or stand-offs, with both sides feeling they are in the right. The odd thing is, they may both be correct in this regard, though successful resolution will require that each recognizes their own appropriate sphere of influence; once this is done, things will sort themselves out easily.
