Thursday, JANUARY 29

The Moon continues its transit of Gemini until 5:32 PM EST, when it heads into Cancer. With the Gemini Moon, we crave mental stimulation and a variety of interests and things to do or learn.

We’re especially responsive and sensitive to what’s going on around us, and we’re more adaptive than usual.

With the Cancer Moon from 5:32 PM onward, we strive to connect with our past in empowering ways, and we can be more protective and resourceful while trusting our intuition. The Cancer Moon is sensitive, cautious, shrewd, and receptive.

Mercury aligns with Venus this morning, encouraging us to intellectualize or analyze our feelings, leading us to hash things out, compliment one another, see the positives, and enjoy our exchanges.

It’s an excellent time to reach agreements or negotiate with others. This transit is a cooperative influence that stirs our desire for harmony and balance, which can mean we don’t dig too deeply.

Both planets form semi-squares to Neptune, however, which can be distracting. There can be a tendency to gloss over problems or see what we want to see, imagining the best or the worst. Of course, the truth is somewhere in between. We should watch for looking the other way in the face of critical flaws and details.

The Moon is void from 2:57 PM EST, with the Moon’s last aspect before changing signs (a square to Saturn), until the Moon enters Cancer at 5:32 PM EST.
