The Moon is quickly moving through the sign of Aries while stirring up emotional volatility and excitability. The tendency is to be more impulsive than usual, especially where domestic and family affairs are concerned, and you may perceive any opposition as a direct threat to your goals. However, you’ll defend the family and those with whom you have close emotional relationships, and that strong protective instinct also extends to finances. Situations may require that you engage with legal professionals, professors or physicians, but you might also reject expert opinions, offers of help or guidance, or academic or legal viewpoints. The events that occur will revolve around Aries persons (sun, moon, or rising sign) and those with significant Libra placements.
As I write this post, the candidates are gearing up for the presidential debate and making a bold or very public statement is highlighted as well as actions that please or jolt the collective. Depending on your pick, the objective to attain high position may be motivated by injustices toward those who have no power or a desire to help those who’ve suffered in some way. On the other hand, the seeker of office might possess a dictatorial nature with little regard for the opinions of others and who tries to take or claim power over a community. Self confidence, both in the mundane and in personal matters, is linked to “being chosen” OVER others with lessons reflecting both the positive and negative sides of being the favorite.
This energy places a spotlight on the judicial system and a person in authority who goes against the tide of public thinking or someone who instigates a brush with the legal system, possibly through a violent act. Participation in certain activities or the failure to properly judge connections could lead to criminal involvement. Courtesy of Neptune, intrigue linked to spies, undercover agents and revealing of national secrets also comes to the fore as reflected in Julian Assange’s recent plea deal. In point of fact, this timeframe will feature a person who holds many secrets connected with the lives of others and who wields a power which will cause fear to many of position and reputation. However, the danger is the desire for material advantages that may influence him in the pursuit of his duty.
On a personal level, practicalities and immediate necessities take priority, but excessive worries can cause tension and digestive difficulties in response to changes in working conditions, dietary habits or intellectual, emotional or physical health. In the positive, you’re inspired to take the steps toward a more conscious and healthier lifestyle and to review the work and relationships that affect your health. For some, an intense wish to serve, particularly in a healing profession, brings greater involvement with others or you may be focused on the health of a woman close to you.
Emotional connection to coworkers also increases as a result of changes at work that are complicated, stressful and don’t always necessarily prove beneficial. Pretending that all is well or failing to openly acknowledge your feelings creates the strong likelihood of passive aggressive behavior, tactics of guilt, hyper-criticism and resentment which eventually leads to health problems. In the most negative situations, mental stability is an issue requiring therapy, counseling or consultation.

More positively, decisions will be made concerning promotion or recognition. Career transitions are emphasized for those who work in communication, with language, or in a writing field. There’s the urge to make a statement and you may be seen as a person who has a message, vision or a concept that needs to be shared. The power of communication will not only lie in the words themselves, but the intent and manner in which they are delivered. The focus is also on the poet, the artist or the talented musician. If you’re involved in a writing project, planetary influences suggest this may be a good time to approach a publisher or agent.
Some creative endeavors could involve long-term or difficult projects that require you to work in a more organized or efficient manner. You may have to meet deadlines or large demands where the quality of future tasks will be much higher than initial requirements and you must be disciplined, consistent and practical. You may be highly self-critical of your work as part of the refinement process, and if the output of your labor is not consistent with your ideal, you may wish to improve it. The quest for perfection can become labored and tedious, and you may experience levels of blockage , but ultimately you’re willing to make the extra effort toward the goal of a better end result, and this helps you to realize the fulfillment of a strong belief in your own abilities. Through your efforts you may be someone who devises and works with your own systems or your own methods. As you test your beliefs, those that prove to be well-founded will find practical application. You’re aware that poor preparation can limit your success and weaken your confidence.
For some, adjustments come from learning to accept the differences of others as part of working with cultures foreign to oneself. Perhaps you’re an explorer on a quest to broaden yourself intellectually through engagement with the world at large. If so, the prospect of travel can be interesting and beneficial, especially if it provides exposure to a different lifestyle that comes through foreign travel, living overseas for a period of time or visiting foreign relatives.
You might even be involved in a romance with a foreigner or just someone very different than your attractions in the past. This new love can be seen as an escape or source of excitement, and while very exciting, can be unstable. In some cases, the person of your interest is unreliable because he/she doesn’t want to be tied down, and you may be on-again, off-again because freedom is an issue.
Consequently, a lack of definition will characterize love affairs. You won’t be sure where your relationship is heading and the future is open-ended. You may not even be sure when you’ll see each other again. Real limitations may or may not exist and this can be due to you or your lover away much of the time or previously committed to someone else. Either of you may be confused by the lack of commitment or reservation and a sense of mystery or ambiguity may surround your interaction. One of the problems is the inclination to over-idealize your romantic interest thinking them to be more attractive, attentive or spiritual than they really are. In negative situations, you’re attracted because one of you needs help and expects to be saved.
As a result of these experiences, your belief system may be challenged as you come to realize a major misconception you hold. It will cause you to question the validity of any prejudice, intolerance or belief that has previously guided, misguided or controlled your life. It might be criticism of someone’s religion or eduction or the display of humor used to cloak an attitude that women are “bitchy” or “good for only one thing.”

Even if travel isn’t possible, you ‘re likely to have some contact with different ethnic groups or cultures, and should engage in activities that defy preconceived ideas about culture and beauty. This brings the chance to step outside of your normal experience to push the boundaries that open you to new possibilities. In fact, your “happily ever after” is linked to the greater understanding that comes with travel or involves some type of learning.
Expansion can also arrive through education and this is a favorable period to undertake a course of study. Learning will be enjoyable and relationships to classmates and professors will tend to be warm and sociable. Maybe you struggle with new ideas and concepts, but educational pursuits may support you in the discovery of answers to the problems you face. If you find joy in the novel, you may be embarking on new frontiers in science or knowledge.
On the other hand, it may be collaboration that allows you to initiate, complete a project or fulfill a joint endeavor through an alliance that serves as the catalyst for encouraging you to accomplish a task you may not ordinarily pursue on your own. A cautionary warning is to carefully evaluate friends and partnerships before getting too deeply involved. You’re highly susceptible to the influence of others, and those who don’t have your best interests in mind can create detrimental circumstances.
Conflicts can occur more frequently and may require that you change the ways in which you handle or deal with others. A Thor’s Hammer configuration indicates that someone will be the target of excessive criticism. The war-like temperament of Aries is further stoked by the coupling of Uranus with asteroid Amor indicating upsets, indifference, ruptures and suddenness through relationships, particularly those that involve ongoing conflict. You may feel infuriated by attempts to express your feelings that end in argument or an inability to compromise. This can be an extremely difficult period if you’re involved in a one-to-one relationship that is not working out very well.
This frustration can affect other areas of your life, especially if someone is telling you what to do or who to be. Either of you may have the tendency to reject, disparage or criticize others for their humor, superiority, inability to listen, lack of compassion, intellectual approach to crisis, lack of integrity, lack of perception, candor, and so on and so forth. Manipulative tactics or threats may be intertwined with supposedly positive messages from others if they do not fully approve of your behavior or goal. Gossip, untruths or spiteful comments may be used to undermine your effectiveness. This will push you into a period of acute self-questioning. You may need to stubbornly adhere to your convictions in order to prevail or survive. If you’re learning to deal with anger constructively, this can be a time to clear the air to resolve disputes, but you’ll need to defend your personal rights or disengage from situations where there’s no solution.

Uncomfortable circumstances contribute to a consciousness-expanding experience meant for personal growth in which events force you to examine your beliefs about intimate relationships and why you believe as you do. Problems may be related to the experience of extensive rejection, disloyalty or infidelity that had a crushing impact on esteem. The scrutiny is likely to fall on one relationship in particular to determine whether your connection is still a sound or supportive alliance. Unrealistic expectations about your connection has probably cause some difficulty. Your assessment of the past and why you came together in the first place will either reaffirm your commitment or drive the realization home that the relationship is falling short of your desires. As a consequence, this period may coincide with the end of some partnership.
The catalyst could be either an internal or external threat, real or imagined, that might involve sexual suspicion and complicity, geographical fidelity, or long distance calls or connections that deal with rivalry or rejection. In some cases, situations bring the the potential for legalities due to a lack of loyalty (broken marriage or employment contracts) further intensified by hard aspect to the nodes which rouses disagreements, a lack of harmony, trouble through women, the break up of a romance or the possibility of divorce. Intimate connection also includes the familial and may draw to the surface issues of favoritism or sexism involving grandchildren.
But this aggressive energy also provides the impetus to move forward, to overcome inertia and to change the status quo. Auspicious for travel and for taking medicine, this moon channels the force and power needed to break the hold of illness over the body.
The key word for this cycle is penetrating which may link to someone with great understanding due to a penetrative intellect who may be compelled many times to exert these abilities for the removal of obstacles and formidable enemies. Gifted with much moral bravery and a high sense of duty, this points to the hero whose weapon of both defense and offense is the mind.
