The BIG NEWS today is Mars squares Uranus. I have been asked many times why I use 'Elf' as the example for this aspect. It's because this aspect acts without hesitation or restraint. It has BIG energy and just doesn't know how to contain, curb or curtail its enthusiasm or energy. There is no consideration or thought for easing up on its excitement. SANTA!

Mars squares Uranus reveals a desire for complete freedom to act without hesitation or restraint. It's uncontrollable energy that needs some sort of control, taming or structure. At the same time, it has the ability to light a fire under the ass of others through pure adrenaline, excitement or mistake. What this energy can do for you is make you a leader. It's kind of like playing 'follow the leader', which means if you do it, whatever it is, then others will follow. Just make certain if you play this game on God's playground (the Earth) that you are using this energy for all the right reasons.

This aspect has enormous drive and thrill for action, so just make sure you do not get hot-headed if others are not moving at your pace and end up throwing a temper-tantrum. Again, there is 'Elf'. That kind of behavior is what will get you a ticket or land you in grown-up time-out. Grown-up time-out is basically waiting in a long time, standing still in traffic, sitting in detention or worse, jail. This isn't meant to scare you, instead it's my job to just tell it like it is if you insist on leaving this energy unattended. Moderation in everything should be the goal. This is a difficult aspect for fostering an out-of-control temper. Be aware of this very unattractive tendency and by all means, do not mix it with alcohol. If you smoke weed, then do that instead and CHILL.

There are also two (2) lunar aspects occurring today as the Moon in Aries sextiles Mars in Aquarius at 12:05 PM EDT and the Moon in Aries squares Saturn in Capricorn at 1:45 PM EDT. So you see these two (2) lunar aspects are overlapping each other since they have a 12 to 14 hour 'orb of influence' before and after their exactness.

The Moon sextile Mars reveals the emotional force necessary to get the job done. The Moon rules the emotions and Mars rules our level of aggression. We have some help here to get us up off our rear-ends and put our emotions, desires and plans into action. This is an action-oriented aspect. DO SOMETHING! Don't just talk about what you are gonna do. That's just lip service! This aspect has you busy doing something and making your Life work for you, not you working for your Life. This aspect is all about winning. The energy behind this placement is infectious, contagious and personable. This aspect definitely plays well with others, as it is enthusiastic, which causes people to respond well in return. This pretty much goes well in alignment with the major aspect Mars squares Uranus above and gives it some sort of structure.

The Moon squaring Saturn is pretty much not feelin' the Love. The aspect is the classic inferiority complex, but you don't have to take this energy lying down. While this can make you feel incredibly insecure today (and I mean just today) you can use the excitement of the major aspect Mars squares Uranus and the enthusiasm of the Moon sextile Mars to overcome this emotional cruddy energy. This aspect can easily make you feel emotionally imprisoned unable to make any decision or move in any direction. It's just pitiful energy where you may just feel sorry for yourself. DO NOT TAKE THIS LYING DOWN! Feeling sorry for yourself is not attractive. Besides, the best way to pick yourself up, is to pick someone else up. It's pretty much super-unattractive energy, so my suggestion is SNAP OUT OF IT and do something constructive and meaningful rather than wasting hours of your day spinning in self-pity.
