The moon is in the early degrees of Leo when the day starts, which usually means that everyone is braver and prouder. There will be a lot of both, don’t get me wrong. Things take a dramatic turn at 12:28 AM ESTwhen the moon lines up directly across from Pluto at 3°.
Of course, any contact between the moon, which is sensitive, and Pluto, which is destructive, will have terrible effects on Earth. Even though it’s only a dwarf planet, it’s strong enough to make up for its small size.
Now that Pluto is in Aquarius, it will throw away a healthy dose of humility every time it opposes the charismatic moon in Leo for the foreseeable future. This will remind us that we are not the center of our universes, but rather part of groups that need our loyalty and duty.
Late at night, the moon forms several hotlines in the early morning. The first is to Mercury at 7° Aries at 9:55 AM, and the second is to Venus at 9° Aries at 12:20 PM.
As long as Venus is still moving backward in the ambitious sign of the ram, people will continue to see beauty, luxury, and romance through a skewed view.
The urge to make a big change to your look, like getting a new tattoo or hair dye from the shop, will probably hit you hard. But you should probably resist the urge to do anything drastic, especially something that can’t be undone.
What do you think the transitions of today will mean for you? Based on your rising sign, read the following prediction.
Aries
The moon is in your fifth house and is in hard opposition to Pluto in your eleventh house. This shows that there are problems between your inner creative world and what other people expect of you. If you have kids, they will probably want your attention more today, and the advice from your wider social network that you didn’t ask for could make you feel like a bad mom. Today, though, you have a lot of power to stand up for yourself and be independent if you feel like too many outside stories and opinions are making you feel stressed. This morning, when the moon trines Mercury into your first house, you’ll be ready to stand your ground. Later, when the moon trines Venus into your first house, your speech will have more charisma and confidence. However, while Venus is still moving backward, try not to make hasty decisions about your body and looks.
Taurus
The moon is in your fourth house and Pluto is in your tenth, which means you’ll be having a hard time balancing your work and personal life today. Everything that isn’t working in your home life will show up at work, and some of you may be dealing with issues that affect your whole family. Pluto is not a cartoonish devil who can destroy everything, even though it may look like your image is ruined for good right now. It will only help you take down and fix the things that aren’t working. Right now, your family ties should be more important to you than ever if you can trust them. When the moon trines Mercury in your twelfth house this morning, you may feel especially stressed out and need to see a therapist. Later, the moon’s trine to Venus in your twelfth house could mean that you hurt yourself without thinking about it. This is a very bad idea right now because Venus is moving backward Staying in the world of logic and order is the best way to get out of a tough situation. Don’t try to escape; instead, stay grounded in it.
Gemini
The moon is in your third house this morning, and Pluto is in your ninth house. This shows how your beliefs have been challenged recently as they have been going through a lot of changes. Even though your community and extended family may want you to keep believing, worshiping, and acting in line with their customs, you’re set on making your own. Many of you are changing your academic path, risking everything for a job change that your family doesn’t like, or going through faith deconstructions. No matter what the reason is, you’re feeling torn between your beliefs and your emotional ties to your community. You can talk to your new friends about what’s on your mind, though, because this morning the moon trines Mercury in your eleventh house, giving you the power to do so. Later, the moon’s trine to Venus in your eleventh house gives you the chance to find financial support and maybe even love within that group. Remember that Venus is still moving backward, so things that seem too good to be true could very well be. Also, don’t leave one group for another; you could be love-bombed right now, and it is always interesting paying for gifts that seem to be free.
Cancer
The moon ends its journey through your second house today, but not before it meets Pluto in your eighth house. This will make you think about your relationship with money, even as you combine it with other things. You might finally have to pay off some big bills you’ve been putting off, or you might have to start sharing your money with a live-in partner. You are becoming more interested in the darker sides of life. You may suddenly want to try sexual experimentation, have an unusual relationship, learn more about the occult, or heal deeply from trauma, even if these are all things that go against the values you were taught. In addition, you may go through this change in public. No matter if you like being in the spotlight or not, you will be put in situations of power. The moon’s trine with Mercury in your tenth house this morning strengthens your communication skills and lets you reach a lot of people. The moon’s trine with Venus in your tenth house brings powerful and wealthy women into your life. But when Venus is in retrograde, you should be very careful in any new relationship, whether it’s work or romantic, because you don’t know what the other person wants.
Leo
As the day begins, the moon is in your first house and Pluto is in your seventh. This forces you out of your comfort zone in relationships and gets rid of bad partners. If you are having trouble in a business relationship or trying to figure out how to end a bad love relationship, the stars may show you a way out today. Right now, take some time to gently care for yourself. Pay less attention to what other people need and choose to love yourself first. It’s likely that you already feel too busy. As you step away from the drama, you may find comfort in your academic, religious, or philosophical interests. This morning, when the moon forms a trine with Mercury in your ninth house, you have the chance to say things that inspire and reassure others. Later, the moon’s trine to Venus, which is also in your ninth house, brings love and money to you from people in your neighborhood. Just be wary of people who make claims that seem too good to be true, like a free scholarship or a flight to Italy for the weekend. Our view is cloudy because Venus is still moving backward.
Virgo
Starting today, the moon is in your twelfth house and Pluto is in your sixth house. This puts you in a position to think about how your mental health has been affecting your body. Because the mind and body aren’t in sync, you may be showing signs of a physical illness. Today is a good day to do a low-impact workout or talk to your doctor about a new diet plan. Today is a good time to take care of your body’s most basic needs. Drink green juice and take your vitamins. The moon’s trine to Mercury in your eighth house this morning shows how much you want to solve any problems in your surroundings that have grown without being talked about. When the moon forms a later trine to Venus in your eighth house, you can connect more deeply with yourself or a partner. This can lead to physical and mental intimacy. But while Venus is still moving backward, it’s not a good idea to sneak back into your ex’s direct messages when you’re feeling weak. Just because the chance is there doesn’t mean it’s the best one to take.
Libra
The moon is in your eleventh house and is in opposition to Pluto in your fifth house. This means that your creative and romantic side and your bigger social circle aren’t getting along very well. Your friends might not like your new casual fling, or you may have lost a lot of friends since you and your partner started hanging out together. If you’re a new parent who is busy and stressed, you might feel a little FOMO as you see your friends who don’t have kids post to Instagram stories right from cocktail hour. The moon will trine Mercury in your seventh house this morning, which is great for making progress in your conversation with your partner. Later, it will also make a trine to Venus in your seventh house. However, Venus is currently moving backward, which could make you feel less sexually and emotionally aligned with your partner. Don’t give up, and enjoy what you can do for each other right now.
Scorpio
The moon is in your tenth house and Pluto is in your fourth house at the start of the day. This puts your personal life and professional image at odds with each other because they both seem to want the same amount of your attention. You may be going through big changes in your home and family life, or you may be getting ready to move because of bad memories in your present home. No matter what, today your emotions will be focused on your public speaking, and you will feel like you have to hide your tears and put on a brave face. This morning, the moon forms a trine to Mercury in your sixth house, which gives you the communication skills to make your most angry coworkers happy. Soon after, the moon forms a trine to Venus in your sixth house, which gives you the charm that could win over your office crush. But keep in mind that any new relationship should be managed with great care while Venus is retrograde.
Sagittarius
The moon is in your ninth house and Pluto is in your third house at the start of the day. This will make it hard to avoid difficult talks as you try to deal with changing family relationships and your connection to the people in your area. You might have to put what you’ve learned in the classroom and theory to the test by using what you’ve learned in real life. If you’ve been stuck in your little world too long, you know how quickly the personal can turn into the political. You are optimistic about learning and growing, which will help you this morning when the moon tries Mercury in your fifth house. This will make it easier for you to talk to creative partners, love partners, and your children (if you have any). Soon after, the moon will make a trine with Venus, which is also in your fifth house. This will make you feel more sexually confident and want to try new things. Venus is still moving backward, though, so it’s not likely that a casual relationship can start. You’re more likely to get back together with an ex or start feeling things for an FWB when the stars are aligned right. Go for it if you like drama. Unless you do, be careful.
Capricorn
As the moon ends its journey through your eighth house, it forms a sharp opposition to Pluto in your second house. This shows that your inner world and your outside resources are very different from each other. If you’ve spent most of your life building your empire, you may be having a hard time getting used to the new rules about shared funds after getting married or moving in with someone. You should see your ego death as a blessing because it will help you understand yourself better in the end. This morning, the moon tries Mercury into your fourth house, making it a safe place to have difficult talks. Later, it also tries Venus in your fourth, making it a romantic space that may help you form stronger bonds and connections. However, it’s important to keep in mind that relationships can and will be tried while Venus is still moving backward Take a break and talk to your friends or family about what to do if things get hot or if you don’t understand each other.
Aquarius
As the day starts, the moon in your seventh house is in opposition to Pluto in your first house. This means that you will have to deal with relationship issues while your sense of who you are changes drastically. You’re probably going through a kind of ego death and may even be dealing with scandals and damage to your image. Now is the time to lean on your closest friends and allies. You should now know who your enemies are, so you can be sure that the people you still care about are in it for the long haul. When the moon trines Mercury in your third house this morning, you’ll feel like you have to speak out about what you care about in the typical Aquarius way. Your words will probably be well received in your neighborhood or within your extended family. When the moon trines Venus into your third house later, you can expect a romantic moment that takes you by surprise or a gift from the world. But since Venus is still moving backward, it might not be free.
Pisces
The moon is in your sixth house today, and Pluto is in your twelfth. This makes it clear how important it is to take care of your physical and mental health. If you’ve been putting one over the other, it should be clear now: when we ignore our bodies and live in our heads too much, we run the dangerous risk of becoming unhealthy and disconnected Be honest with yourself and make sure you’re meeting your most important wants first. The moon forms a trine to Mercury in your second house this morning. This makes you feel more comfortable talking about money, so if you’ve been putting off meeting with your financial advisor, today is a good day to do it. When the moon trines Venus into your second house, you might get good news about your money that surprises you. But keep in mind that not everything that shines is gold while the planet of love and wealth is still moving backwards. Take care of yourself, but don’t go overboard.
