Monday, January 31st:
Monday, the Moon remains in ambitious, goal-oriented Capricorn and VoC until 4:43am EST. At that time, the Moon moves into freedom-loving, forward-thinking Aquarius, where it will journey until Wednesday morning. The energy of the Aquarian Moon relates to our instinct for improvement. Reactions are more intellectual than emotional and interactions more impersonal than personal. We are likely to have an increased fascination with the new and unusual.
Social gatherings, anything connected with group ideals and goals for the future, brainstorming, new ideas and methods, progress: all these are promoted during the time the Moon moves through Aquarius. Again: we have our eyes on the future -- or on outer space :-) Personal freedom becomes paramount.
Uranus is the ruler of Aquarius -- and this planet is currently moving through Taurus, making these next two days a great time to take a look at our physical connection both to our own body and our finances -- and to what is most important to us on this planet.
It's also a great time to innovate and make changes in our lives around any physical matters that no longer serve us, or that keep us stuck in the past; we need to elevate our thinking if we want our bodies and the planet to vibrate at a higher frequency.
Ask yourself: Do I need to give my body something different to raise it to a higher vibration? When I tune in to myself, what insights does my body provide?
Where in my life have I become too rigid in connection with my body, my physical resources, or my talents? Where have I become too comfortable with those things? What is my connection to the Earth? To Nature? Do I need more physical space? More physical movement?
Also on Monday, Mercury starts to slow down again (“stationing”). It’s getting ready to come to a halt, ending its 3-week Retrograde phase, on Thursday late evening (more on that later this week…).
For the next 6 days (until Feb. 6th), we need to be patient with ourselves and others -- especially if there is a connection with communication or transportation and their associated technologies. As best as you can, give yourself and others a lot of space!
This is not the best time to start anything brand-new, especially if it contains new information that needs to be processed.
We might experience delays or misunderstandings, and things tend to feel "off" or stagnant. It might be a good idea to give yourself some extra time to get ready for travel somewhere -- especially if you intend to use public transportation or drive (for more details on Mercury Shadow Phases and Retrogrades, click here)
