8 AM the Moon trines Mercury, and we get the message we’ve been waiting for–now can we translate it? This is necessary as it will be sent and received on an emotional frequency, or we’ll intuit information ‘broadcast’ by another via our emotional connection–in any case, informative, if we can set aside our emotional prejudices and accept the information untainted.
5:30 PM PDT the Moon trines Venus. A Watery trine feels so good! Just don’t let the feeling turn into money or love slipping through your fingers like water, ’cause you’re so blissed out you forget to take others, or priorities, into account. This begins a rather wide Grand Trine connection among the Moon, Venus, and Ceres. This Grand Trine amps up the feeling sensibilities until they may resonate like an enormous tuning fork! I know, a weird analogy, but one that describes the overwhelming intensity of the feeling nature at this time–it’s what I imagine angels singing to sound like! The connection to nature, maternal instincts, and love can be profound–this can be an amazing time for an elevated dining experience, an emotional meeting (especially something like a ‘I’ve been looking for my biological mother and now we’re meeting at Starbucks!’ kind of get-together), or true communion with a loved one.

Gorgeous essence today, Julie. It really captures the feeling. Getting a lot done today and feeling at the other end of accomplishment. We decided to sell our house–and within less than two weeks we busted our buns with reno and tomorrow we have our first showing. Astrologically, I would’ve preferred today for the first showing but I guess there’s not much I can do about that.
Hugs,
MM
Thank you, MM! So glad to hear your move is on track. I think I know what you mean about preferring a first showing today, but tomorrow’s much the same: Moon still in Cancer, encouraging nesting instincts in prospective buyers, but also encouraging so much nostalgia and nurture-yearning that if you’re selling anything short of womb-space they may find it wanting! so if feedback runs along the ‘not home-y enough’ lines you’ll know why (as ‘homey will depend upon their Moon sign)–and Mars is applying by sextile to Saturn, which really is a nice impetus toward change, and toward moving to acquire property, and Merc and Venus meet exact by degree by the 31st/1st, but linger together for some time, before and after–and on the 30th the Moon will enter Capricorn, so there may be some money talk about property on the table at this point–though whether it’s a purchase negotiation it’s hard to guess (though the Moon will sextile Ceres by the next day, suggesting it could be). Just be laid back about any offers or demands that come forward during Dark of the Moon (starting about noon Pacific time on the 23rd)–these will likely have little energy behind them and so can be ignored (unless it’s during a Void–oy! so many possibilities!)
Enough of my unasked for advice!! Have a great one, and much good luck!

Julie,
I adore your unasked for advise. Thank you! Muah!
Haha. I will most certainly update on the situation, as I am hoping for a speedy sell. All of my tarot and oracle readings have pointed to a very speedy sale so I hope that’s the case.
I will take your advice down post haste so as not to forget it.
Lotsa Tuesday Hugs,
MM
You are welcome 🙂
And hugs to you!
