THE MOON IS IN VIRGO TODAY! Keywords: analytical, health, hygiene, critical, perfection, fitness, routine, in-service, volunteer, co-workers, employees, daily regimen, organization, scheduling, neatness, clean

The Moon in Virgo is moving through your 11th house of friends, groups of people, social acquaintances, former relationships (ex's), organizations, alliances, fraternities, memberships, money from the employer, finances of employer and stock exchanges. It is also about your hopes, wishes and dreams.

This daily horoscope is for everyone. This day may very well feel like walking through sludge. The opposition between the Sun in Taurus at 20 degrees 1 minute and Saturn in Scorpio at 20 degrees 1 minute can feel very tiring and laborious. For this reason alone I would not advise adding more to your plate. Literally, it would be like adding a load of food onto a flimsy paper plate. Seriously folks, do not dive into a conversation or confrontation that is just going to end up leaving you feeling dissatisfied and more frustrated. You may feel like stomping away, slamming the door and screaming your signature foul phrase. The opposition will test your self-control. I mean it folks. Don't make me say, "I told 'ya so" because I will. I'm like that. Some of you will not be able to hold your tongue and will feel the need to get into a tug-of-war. That's what oppositions are between planets, a tug-of-war between opposing forces. In this case it is the Sun Sign of Taurus and Scorpio accompanied by the Sun and Saturn. The Good news about oppositions is that once the conflict is resolved, growth occurs. The resolution will probably not come today but will come once these two planets begin to separate in a 'separating aspect'. You may have had an intuitive feel about this energy for about a week or so because these two planets were in an in an 'applying aspect', meaning they were coming closer together. After today, they will begin to separate. All the same, today is the challenge.

It's so interesting how this works. Saturn represents the father or authority figure type of energy. It is this energy that comes down on us and restricts us or limits us where it is necessary. Maybe you will pull up to an ATM machine today that says, "Temporarily out of order." Well, that could easily be the intended intuitive hit that tells you that you do not need to be spending money today. Folks, when you run into a restriction, look at the situation with your maturity pants on. You are being restricted for a Good reason, not a bad reason. Heck, that doesn't even make sense. The 'uninitiated individual', meaning the one who operates unaware and unenLightened along their path, may end up feeling as though the world is against them and they are always stopped from getting what they want. This energy is restrictive and imposing. Everything seems to be an imposition under this aspect. And if you are having relationship troubles, I would NOT go down that rabbit hole today.

This aspect can also rob you of your confidence because of the restriction (Saturn), you will not let your talents shine (Sun). This is where you may feel beat down and just feel like giving up. If you feel like giving up and giving in, then my advise is give yourself 15 minutes of poor-poor-pitiful-me and then get back to your living your Life. If the day is going to be a challenge, then change direction and do something enjoyable that will take your mind off the obsession of this challenge. I mean it folks, this aspect can feel very tiresome, where the last thing you want to do is put forth any physical energy. Your vim and vigor may feel like they got up and left the building. Confidence is likely to feel pretty low, as you may have felt this over the past week due to the 'applying aspect'. The Sun represents our identity; therefore, some of you may have a hard time deciding on who you are or who you want to be. Some of you may have experienced a crisis in consciousness and feeling it even stronger today.

This aspect is so challenging that you may see challenges where they do not even exist. You may feel the need to be constantly reassured of your self-worth or that you can succeed no matter what setbacks you have experienced. In personal relationships, some of you may be asking your partner if they Love you, needing that constant reassurance. This aspect feels threatening, insecure and worried. Getting approval from others may very well be tough while this aspect is present and might even be tougher getting approval from yourself. In other words, self-approval is low and you may be fishing for compliments.

Now we add a bit of fuel to the fire by throwing in a Void of Course Moon in Virgo as it makes its way to Libra. The Moon in Libra will oppose Venus in Aries making relationships a bit rocky and emotional. Saturday is date night but it would be best not to expect a romantic evening while such insecure energy is present. And did I mention that Mars in Libra will conjunct the Moon in Libra today? A conjunction intensifies the energy of the planets involved. This makes emotions impulsive and sensitive where you could act without thinking. Again, this is not all that great for personal relationships.

Not only is the Moon in Libra opposing Venus in Aries, Mars in Libra is in 'exact' opposition to Venus in Aries at 09 degrees. It's just a mess! This is a tough opposition because Mars naturally rules Aries and Venus naturally rules Libra. Talk about relationship identity crisis! This is what's called a 'mutual reception' aka an 'exchange of signs'. A mutual reception is when two planets are in each other's signs of rulership. Trying to balance a relationship right now is a bit tough but let's look at this a little more closely with a clear and thoughtful brain. Why in the world would Mars need to be in Libra and Venus need to be in Aries? Venus naturally rules both Libra and Taurus, while Mars naturally rules Aries. But Venus and Mars have traded places. Why?!?! Well, maybe, just maybe, Libra needs some fire lit under its butt and Venus needs to schmooze and calm Aries. A mutual reception is 'supposed to be' beneficial so we need to look for the benefit. Libra needs a bit of Aries qualities and Aries needs a bit of Libra qualities. This 'mutual reception' in 'exact opposition' is not meant to be a tug-of-war, it is meant to be the perfect balance. Okay, now that is cool. The problem here is that Mars in Libra is in its 'Detriment' and Venus in Aries is in its 'Detriment'. The 'detrimental' placement is like a fiesty child throwing a temper tantrum in the grocery store. Basically, it acts out inappropriately at the wrong time and wrong place. You may find during this energy that you want to be free, then you want to be together, you want to do your own thing, then you want companionship. Today is a great day to go your separate ways and do your own thing and then come back together later in the day to do something easy that doesn't require a lot of conversation or confrontation, like watching a movie.
