Today’s Mercury-Uranus square stimulates our senses and can bring on sudden flashes of insight and fresh new ideas. However, there can be mental pressures experienced now. It can be difficult organizing our thoughts or dealing with routine matters under this influence. Tasks may be left undone or interrupted. We may be jumping ahead of ourselves in our communications. New information can surface that upsets the status quo, but it can also stimulate new thinking and perspectives.

A creative aspect between Mars and Chiron suggests gaining an advantage or edge through strategy, focus, and willingness to grow, learn, and think outside the box. The Moon spends the day in the sign of Pisces, pointing to the need for decompressing, winding down, and tapping into our intuition.
