Sunday, OCTOBER 4

The Sun opposes Saturn today, and we can experience a reality check related to our work, responsibilities, or the rules in general. Feelings of doubt, pessimism, or guilt may undermine our confidence until we make corrections. Feeling blocked, encountering obstacles to progress, and inhibitions are all possible under this influence.

While there can be a letdown, our efforts to meet expectations can ultimately increase confidence in our ability to take responsibility for ourselves.

Focusing too much on our feelings may not be very productive right now. This is a time to reevaluate goals and consider the limits of time and energy. It can be a good time to develop real solutions to long-term problems and recognize the meaning behind recent restrictions or limitations.

We may acknowledge the need to adopt a more humble, mature, and cautious approach. We might also need to catch up on neglected duties or responsibilities.

Mercury’s quincunx with Uranus today further complicates energies. With this influence, it can be challenging to gain others’ understanding. Watch for poorly considered decisions, impulsive communication, and disorganization that can lead to misunderstandings. We might also deal with a lack of receptiveness to practical advice.

The Moon continues its transit of protective Cancer until 6:54 PM EDT, when it moves into Leo. The Leo Moon encourages our need to play, express ourselves, and create. We’re enthusiastic and take particular pride in our accomplishments. We can visualize what we want to do as the Moon forms a trine with Neptune.

The void Moon continues today until the Moon enters Leo at 6:54 PM EDT.
