in_the_blueIt's a day, isn't it? So many people are unhappy. I want to hug my whole friends list, each and every one of you.
Today, the moon is in Aries. Aries, the ram, ruled by Mars, the god of war. Think bellicose. Think head-butting. Think extremely impulsive. Think rash and reckless and impatient. Think infantile, because Aries as the first sign is the infant of the zodiac. People are going around being very egocentric! It's by the force and example of the moon. Warriors, warrior maidens. Headaches, head injuries, these things abound under an Aries moon because Aries rules the head.
Emotionally we are revved up and stark naked under an Aries moon. We have no patience with others or with ourselves. We want to get things done for the sake of getting them done. We will deal with the consequences of our actions another time but today, we act before we think. And that's okay because we know we're right. We are headstrong. We butt heads over concepts, ideas, actions, inactions. But we can also accomplish great and miraculous things with all that Mars energy! We just have to focus it.
Moon in Aries will not make us diplomats. It will lead us into battles. It also makes us courageous and decisive. It makes us want to take the bull by the horns and rattle sabers. It favors being athletic and it favors brainstorming, but it will sap our patience and thoughtfulness. It's explosive. Literally. Look at what's going on in Oslo today.
Overnight, the moon will move into the sign of Taurus and that will bring with it a whole new set of challenges and delights. The forceful energy of the past few days will mellow and it will be a good time to nest and nestle. Patience will return, and the ability to proceed with diligence. Think of Taurus the bull moving steadily forward on feet that look anything but light. It's ruled by Venus and that brings with it a greater degree of harmony and a sense of beauty. It's a good time to rest and regenerate, to get cozy.
The moon transits each sign for about two, two and a half days. On the 25th, it moves into Gemini and that's a whole new ball of wax, and another, and another. But more as the days progress, if you're interested.
