Tuesday, AUGUST 27

Mars is in minor challenging aspect with Pluto this morning and is heading toward a harmonious trine with Uranus today. We recognize the need for change, but we should watch for putting too much pressure on ourselves to make it happen. The other side of this is stubbornly resisting it, and either way can be problematic now. We may feel at battle with ourselves and others, as putting faith and trust in people–and perhaps life itself–can be difficult until later today. There can be a tendency to want to manipulate or connive to get what we want now. It’s better to draw upon self-control and wait things out to gain some perspective.

As the day advances, letting go comes naturally. We’re looking to branch out a little and explore our more adventurous side. It’s far easier to let go of grudges or baggage in the name of progress. The Moon continues its transit of safety-conscious Cancer until 7:53 PM EDT when it enters outgoing Leo.

The Moon is void from 4:55 AM EDT, with the Moon’s last aspect before changing signs (an opposition to Pluto), until the Moon enters Leo at 7:53 PM EDT.
