Accessing Core

Moon in Purva Bhadra + Krishna Saptami (7th)

Today Moon is with Saturn in Aquarius, never really a fun deal there. Moon is our higher connection to Self and Saturn is that which shadows the connection.

As much as that isn’t fun, it gives us an opportunity to look deep within to see that in our core, all the strength we need resides. Use this opportunity that seems to drag you down in a way that lets you access this deep knowing that is already there, awaiting your return.

We’ve got some interesting shifts happening with the faster moving planets.

-Venus moved into Taurus last week, where it has a strong connection in an Earth sign, urging us to root our hearts with our feet into the Earth. Without an Earth holding us, cleaving us to her, we are in deep trouble.

-Sun moved into Gemini and in good dignity, it helps light up our intelligence, lets our ideas come to fruition. It also lit up issues with air travel, which makes sense.

-Next weekend Mars will move from Pisces to Aries which means it will be going through the gandanta/knot. Overall this placement is fine but Mars actually going through the degrees where it changes signs is hard and that happens during the dark/new Moon, so there may be some spiritual battles in the internal landscape but some mundane battles as well.

As always, we are looking to move with nature, not against it. Recognize it for what it is and don’t let yourself fall into victim mentality. It’s always something.

For those tracking the Moon with your own chart (and the other planets), here is today’s sky.
