Friday, SEPTEMBER 4

Today’s Aries Moon is typically direct and action-oriented. However, the planetary ruler of Aries, Mars, is forming tense aspects today, and it may not be easy to get in touch with what we desire or where we stand. If we do know what we want, how to get it can be in question. Mercury and the Sun form minor challenging aspects to the fiery planet, and if we’re out of touch with our desires, our expression is choppy or misrepresentative.

Even so, Mercury forms a sextile to Venus, encouraging cooperation and agreement. This transit facilitates compromises, negotiations, and clarification of feelings. We can feel moved to present our ideas or romantic overtures, teach, guide, and make deals. We’re inclined to verbalize or analyze our feelings and relationships.
