The big news today is the retrograde turn of Pluto (more on that in a separate post).  Communication and the workings of our mind will go smoothly under a harmonious aspect to Jupiter that will last all day, but Mars is opposing Saturn which can generate a fair amount of push-pull behavior:  resistance that can result in anger and rage.  Coming off the square of Venus to Pluto yesterday, tensions are still strong but are softened by the more positive aspects of the Moon, such as a trine to the Sun this afternoon which peaks at about 5:30 pm. 

The Moon opposes Jupiter early Sunday am at 1:35 EDT which bestows a sense of general good will and our thoughts are peaceful and clear when the Moon trines Mercury at around 4 am on Sunday.  However, later that morning the Moon will form a challenging opposition to both Chiron and Neptune at 10 am and 11:30 am respectively (EDT) which could bring up some emotional issues and create a desire to flee or seek refuge.  

The Moon will be void of course after the opposition to Neptune at 11:30 am until it enters Virgo at 7 pm.  In Virgo the Moon desires order and security – there is a need for personal hygiene and good health, and for an established routine.  The next few days will be an excellent time to finish up your taxes and clean up your office, begin a healthier diet and exercise program, or do to a general spring cleaning of your home and your life!

Neptune just slipped back into Pisces where it will remain until 2025.  Neptune's role in the astrological pantheon is to cause us to question where the physical world ends and a more transcendent reality begins.  It therefore rules our spiritual experience, but it can also be confusing and induce

Sunday inspiration: The Great Nest of Being
"Whenever we moderns pause for a moment, and enter the silence, and listen very carefully, the glimmer of our deepest nature begins to shine forth, and we are introduced to the mysteries of the deep, the call of the within, the infinite radiance of a splendor that time and space forgot - we are intr
