Saturday, AUGUST 2

Mars forms a quincunx with Chiron this morning, and we could be doubting the effectiveness of our assertions or efforts to go after what we want, potentially resulting in passive-aggressive behavior, defensiveness, or frustration. We can find it challenging to be both assertive and sensitive now, seeing-sawing between one and the other.

It can also be difficult to assert ourselves effectively without provoking, annoying, or concerning others. The trick is to find ways to combine both sensitivity and directness instead of narrowing our choices to either/or.

The Moon spends the day in Scorpio, drawing us to transformative and emotionally engaging experiences. We’re deliberate, strategic, perceptive, and emotional.

The Moon’s sextile to Mars tonight heightens our feelings, awakens our impulses, and stirs our passions. We are independent, more in tune with our instincts, and less demanding of others.

The Moon is void from 9:07 PM EDT, with the Moon’s last aspect before changing signs (a sextile to Mars), until the Moon enters Sagittarius the next day, on Sunday, August 3rd, at 2:01 AM EDT.
