Friday, OCTOBER 16

Venus forms a quincunx with Uranus this morning, bringing themes of impulsive spending, peculiar attractions, fear of commitment, and issues around freedom vs. intimacy. We might question whether we need more excitement in our relationships or freedom from them, yet we don’t feel confident enough to rock the boat. Taming rebelliousness makes sense now.

However, we also benefit from a Mars-Saturn trine this morning and a Mars-Pallas trine this evening, helping moderate our energy. Mars forms a trine to Saturn, and we value endurance and perseverance. Carefully picking and choosing our activities comes naturally now. Still, we feel more productive, directed, and purposeful.

A slow, steady, methodical approach works best under this influence. We get the job done, and we’re thorough! This trine favors discipline, moderation, tradition, pacing ourselves, temperance, and realism. A Mars-Pallas trine points to the courage and energy to back up our beliefs. We’re generally in a good place to find wisdom in traditional methods, and we can be bringing structure to our lives and projects. 

The Moon leaves Sagittarius and enters organized, responsible Capricorn at 8:57 AM EDT.

The Moon is void until it enters Capricorn today at 8:57 AM EDT.
