At 2:42 p.m.: The moon enters Taurus and the moon void of course ends
The cosmic weather is quiet today until the moon enters Taurus, exiting its void of course, which began late last night. We are currently in the dark of the moon in the run-up to tomorrow’s Taurus new moon. There is also a pileup of planets in Taurus (Venus, the sun, Uranus, and Jupiter) that makes this an especially potent time to sit with uncomfortable sensations and emotions. Patience is our forte now. By slowing down, we pay better attention to our surroundings, which makes us a more present participant in our own lives. Until you hit the new moon mark, focus on rest and release so you are prepared to define your next best steps.
In the evening, the moon squares off with Pluto in Aquarius, a volatile influence. As mentioned, we are heading towards the new moon, and conflicts that arise at this time can provide valuable insight into unhealthy habits or toxic relationships that require course correction. Expect impulsive emotions to hijack your better judgment. You might be triggered by another’s comments or actions. How will you respond when you are faced with such challenges? Will you dig in your heels and double down on your position? Will you make a knee-jerk decision in the heat of the moment? Although we may not be immediately capable of self-reflection, assessing our behavior once tensions have subsided will be illuminating.
