The Moon enters Leo at 8:03 AM PDT of the 5th. The quincunx to Neptune is of course immediate and may be a little startling, as it draws our attention away from ourselves and our personal concerns (Leo) and toward our personal Neptune issues, centered in the matters of the House Neptune is currently transiting and/ or the placement of our natal Neptune and what he rules. This can go in so many directions it’s hard to pinpoint; I’d just venture that what we’re concerned with is highly personal and highly meaningful, as this aspect asks us to modify something we feel strongly about in order to shape it more to our ideals–a good influence if we can respond without digging in our heels over minor details (or a major need for change!)

The Moon also squares Jupiter, new in Taurus, at this point. It’s almost like a brief return to junior high–what we have in relation to what everyone else in our circle has suddenly becomes a matter of not just interest but pride. This could trigger foolish spending (with Venus in Taurus and also body of latest degree) or could lead to actual conflict over resources; at the very least it might bring a little primping and strutting for the crowd, while even the most modest of us will want to look good
