Mercury Square Jupiter (12 AM)

Now that Mercury is out of retrograde it is striding confidently through the sign of Leo, but overnight this confidence falters as it forms a square aspect with Jupiter. Any confidence that we have built up recently gets knocked down a peg as we doubt ourselves and the motivations of others. Things don’t add up and you are forced re-examine the facts as you know them.

Mars Sextile Moon (8 AM)

Mars leaving retrograde, on the other hand, provides energy and confidence that bolsters us. It forms a sextile with the Moon in dreamy Pisces, snapping us out of our reverie of comfort and pushing us into action.

Moon in Aries (11 AM, lasts the next couple days)

The Moon exits Pisces with the Mars energy to leap into action, and its journey through bold Aries only carries the momentum forward. Projects get a huge energy boost, but be wary– this energy is persistent, even bleeding over into other areas that don’t need such intensity.

Saturn Square Moon (4 PM)

This afternoon you feel overwhelmed by memories of anxiety from the past. You’ve been here before, and the self-doubt causes you to skip a beat. If you focus on the Moon’s bold energy from Aries, you should be able to carry onward and cast those doubts aside!

How to Apply This

I’m a Sagittarius Rising, so an example of how this applies to me is that I feel the tension between what I believe in my spiritual beliefs (9^th House topic) and what my own internal dialogue is saying (1^st House topic). I get energy from my resources (2^nd House topic) that helps me wrap up projects around the house (4^th House topic). I carry this energy into creative projects (5^th House topic), even with doubts about finances (2^nd House topic) hanging over my head.
