FRIDAY JULY 16
(times listed in PT. CT +2, ET + 3)
Moon trine Saturn: 3:33 am
Moon sextile Mars: 10:04 pm
Friday’s skies are both harmonious, and stimulating, book-ended by the amiable Libra Moon forming supportive aspects with astrology’s two “malefic” or most challenging planets.
Saturn represents limitations, blockages, and a need for discipline and discernment that may be frustrating our efforts, but for some deeper long term reason we can’t yet see. The Moon’s early trine with stern Saturn opens up a negotiation with these blockages, and sets the day up for focused work. Since it’s an air trine between the Moon and Saturn, it’s a time for ideas to flow. The Moon is in Saturn’s sign of “exaltation” meaning the Moon is well received by demanding Saturn, symbolizing a perhaps a good day to calmly approach an elder, superior, or any tough minded person in your life, as they may be more amenable than usual to your requests.
Mars represents will, power, initiative, and if need be, confrontation. Mars is in proud and uncompromising Leo these days, so the late night Libra Moon sextile with the planet of battle may be somewhat activating and energizing, but in a way that is easy to harness, and channel. This Moon/Mars aspect hints at bursts of creative activity tonight, and carries the signature of sociablility, fun, and movement. The Moon is in Venus’ sign, on Venus’ Day, so the evening may carry a indulgent, celebratory mood.
