Today we experience four (4) to the Scorpio Moon with a square to Mercury at 2:19 AM EDT, a conjunction to Jupiter at 9:06 AM EDT, a trine to Neptune at 9:33 AM EDT and a sextile to Pluto at 4:11 PM EDT.

Before most of us wake up this morning, the first aspect will have already passed, although we will still feel the effects of it since lunar aspects have a 12 to 14 hour 'orb of influence' before and after their exactness. You probably felt the Moon square Mercury more last night before you went to bed than you will this morning. This caused challenging communication where the emotions and thoughts were not in sync.

As the day progresses, the Moon conjuncts Jupiter and e-x-p-a-n-d-s our emotions because Jupiter expands whatever it touches and this morning it is sitting right on top of the Moon. This will cause your emotions to grow out of proportion to what is really going on. This can easily look like drama or making a mountain out of a molehill. It's not really volatile or argumentative, it's just expanded emotions, and most likely looking for attention. It's the late person who walks in and calls attention to themselves. Nevermind sneaking in so as not to disrupt what is going on, the late person walks in making noise, apologizing profusely and rattling their keys.

The third aspect occurring is the Moon trine Neptune, which makes us all wonder how people tick. We become more interested in the psychological mind of others. Our own mental health becomes more important. Watch for the posts in social media that might have to do with intuition, mental health or 'the vibe' of what is going on. Anytime Neptune is involved, the mental and psychological mind is involved. Since this is a trine, then we experience more intuition than we do crazy. Trust your intuition and tune-in, like a tune-ah-fish, since Neptune is the natural ruler of Pisces, the fish.

The final aspect occurring today is the Moon sextile Pluto, which is called 'emotional power'. Pluto is a very manipulative planet, so make certain you use this energy in THE MOST wonderful way and standing in integrity. This is like be given a stick of clay and you can mold it into anything you want. You can take someone's intention or words and twist it into something completely wrong and distorted just to be difficult, or you can take energy and become more enlightened to what is really going on. This is a sextile, so it is meant to be a positive influence to you. Still, this aspect is like a block of clay. At the end of the day, you will have molded this day to turn out as you intended. It would be wise to remain conscious so you can consciously recognize just what your intentions were.
