The week begins with a very earthy energy, as Virgo's Moon adds weight to Taurus' Sun. Sunday is an astrologically busy day, and for the most part quite good. Watery emotion creates a malleability which allows for our dreams to manifest, and there's just enough fire and air in the mix to dry and harden our creations. We'll want to look out for friction around 8:00 AM (MDT), a quarter to 5:00, and just after 10:30 PM, and a mental block around 8:00 PM, but none of that should stop us from making the most of what is largely a lucky, opportune energy. The night ends on an agitated note, but that's short-lived as the very early hours of Monday morning bring growth. This too is fleeting, and much of the day is edgy in a raspy, sort of annoying way. Things lighten up around a quarter after 6:00 in the evening when the Moon moves into airy Libra, but this doesn't prevent the evening from feeling a bit disjointed.

The irritation carries into Tuesday morning, but things begin to look up around 5:00 AM when the Libra Moon's atmosphere cools and brings form to Leonine Saturn's molten lava. The rest of the morning and into the early afternoon are a little bumpy, especially on the home front, but a bit of luck comes along around twenty to 2:00 to carry us through into the evening when our emotions lead us to break new ground. It's not all easy, as there are a series of obstacles to be surmounted Wednesday morning, with a dollop of luck around twenty after 2:00 AM to take the edge off, another around 9:30 as we move into a slightly (I do mean slightly) less challenging energy, and one more at about ten 'til 3:00 PM to give us a boost through a somewhat grating evening. It ends on a high note though with the energy warming up and taking a fortunate turn (if we're headed in the appropriate direction to begin with).

Thursday is astrologically very quiet, with the big news being the Moon's entrance into deep, watery Scorpio at 5:26 AM after an agitated beginning to the day. The predominant energies of the day peak during the 4:00 (PM) hour; stubbornness is the standout influence, with life force holding back emotion and communication opposing evolution in our material world. A bit of opportunity arises in the later afternoon and carries us into Friday, which immediately turns it around on itself; release, release, release when things get hinky. The rest of the day is a roller-coaster, never a surprise under Scorpio's Moon. There are several bright spots in the course of the day, specifically 5:00 AM when our words are capable of communicating our dreams, 8:30 AM when our emotions bring them substance, 1:30 PM when those emotions translate into positive action, and 6:30 when critical scrutiny and sustained effort bring it all home. In between there are periods of detachment and grittiness, and after we hit a wall around 7:00 we find it difficult to get back in the groove. It's best tonight to just sit back and observe what we've brought about so far with a bit of dispassion.

Saturday continues in much the same vein, with the morning fluctuating from feeling blocked to feeling stimulated, then descending into agitation which lasts until shortly after noon when things loosen up a bit only to constrict us again just after 1:00. The Moon moves into Sagittarius at 1:57 PM, bringing some warmth and general good fortune to our internal worlds, energy worth basking in until late afternoon when we face a minor blockage followed by a spoonful of luck which is chased off by a feeling of anxiety that carries through the evening. Around 9:00 we have a chance to match our words to our actions and bring about physical change affecting our home environment, and we'll need to hang onto the good feeling it brings about as the energy the rest of the night is rather fractious. Hang in there. The opening note next week will be a welcome change.

As always, take good care folks.

Love,

Peace
