Monday, OCTOBER 21

The Moon continues its transit of communicative Gemini until 6:50 PM EDT, after which the Cancer Moon is more insular. We’re connecting with our needs for nurture, roots, safety, and familiarity.

As the day advances, Mercury forms a sesquiquadrate to Neptune and heads toward a trine to Saturn. We might struggle with our expectations or perceptions of reality. It’s crucial to be cautious and avoid perceiving situations impractically or overly optimistically.

Mercury-Neptune can diffuse our concentration and focus, so it’s best to be prepared for potential challenges. But while there can be some confusing elements to later today, particularly in our communications, thought processes, and outlook, the Mercury-Saturn trine coming into play helps ground and center our thoughts and communications. We begin to see the value in simplifying and taking things step by step. Conversations may be spare but instructive.

It’s a good time for systematic thinking and a step-by-step approach to tasks and problems. This transit supports work with details. We’re cautious with our expectations or remind ourselves to keep things moderate.

The Moon is void from 5:01 PM EDT, with the Moon’s last aspect before changing signs (a trine to the Sun), until the Moon enters Cancer at 6:50 PM EDT.
