Sunday 28 July
Moon in Aries
That Mars-Pluto explosion waiting to happen? It’s exact at 8.50am Sydney time. Not that the exactness makes that much of a difference, the energy was with us yesterday and will be with us today.
It’s very definitely a count to 10 and repeat as often as it takes kind of day. I’ve been feeling more than a little like the picture.
Happening on the other side of the chart is another tense aspect- a square off between the Sun and Saturn at 5 Leo and Scorpio respectively.
Although relatively quick in nature, this is never an easy transit. On one hand we have the Sun, in Leo, representing ego, self expression, fun and gratification. On the other, we have Saturn representing duty, responsibility, structure, the commitments we’ve made to others and, especially in Scorpio, fears and the things that hold us back.
It’s a little like having to go to work when the sun is shining and everyone else is off partying. Maybe it’s that feeling you get when you’ve committed to a family get together comprising third and fourth removeds that you really couldn’t give two hoots about and something far better has come up. You get the idea. The point is, there’s something (or someone) in the way or stopping you from doing what you really want to be doing.
The weight of the world is on your shoulders and life is so unfair, damn it. Stamp foot.
The thing is, the choices we make are the choices we make, as are the consequences. Deep? Absolutely, but it’s also the truth. Sadly, when we’re feeling lonely and isolated and hard done by and as if the rest of the world has it oh so easy, the last thing that we want to acknowledge is the truth of the matter. Instead we want to look at the person who appears to have it all, but who is probably dealing with their own issues and say ‘it’s ok for you…’ or ‘you wouldn’t understand,’ or ‘you have it so easy.’ Don’t. Trust me, you have no idea what is going on behind their facade.
Yet truth is very likely what the aspects of this weekend are likely to dredge up.
I’m guest “starring” every day this week over at Yasmin Boland’s Moonology. Get your daily stars here. Remember to read for both your Sun sign, and your Rising sign.
