Tuesday, AUGUST 10

Mercury forms a minor square to Chiron and an opposition to Jupiter today. We can be excited and enthusiastic about our ideas and anxious to share them, but also somewhat sensitive to how they’re received. We need room to explore and create, visualize new solutions to problems, and express ourselves freely. However, we are inclined to exaggerate or to miss the bigger point. It’s best to watch for a strong tendency to overstate or overestimate in our quest for meaning.

Mental anxiety could manifest as we can swing from blind faith to doubt, making it difficult to make good, practical choices. We’re stretching our minds now, and while this is an excellent mental exercise, we should avoid making commitments until we’re more realistic and confident. We should also watch for scattering our energies or taking on too many activities at once–we could be looking so far ahead that we forget the important details or disclaimers. Positively, we might entertain possibilities that we wouldn’t normally consider. The Moon spends the day in the sign of Virgo.
