Today's Astrology Forecast | Thursday, July 16, 2020 - getting busy, making adjustments to what we call nurturing, staying curious, finding a new way through

The Moon is in multi-tasking/curious/chatty and information hungry Gemini now - there is enough to keep everyone busy like it or not. This late in the lunar month the Moon might have been happier yesterday in slow and comfortable Taurus.

Now, maybe she starts to feel rushed, like she is falling behind somehow.

On the other hand if she (as we) will just roll through this day (stay in the moment and flexible as the pace quickens and shifts), getting this done and that done this can feel very good, too!

The Gemini Moon will sextile Mars at 10:26PM EDT and meet up with Venus at 2:40AM EDT (tomorrow).

In Gemini our focus naturally turns to Gemini themes - information, communication, errands, education, writing, teaching, our siblings, local community, transportation/electronic situations. 

That Moon/Mars sextile from Gemini/Aries is a trigger to be curious. Get out there into your local neighborhood. Make the call. Write the email. Do/think/talk about something NEW.

This is also the day Venus (in Gemini) squares a retrograde Ceres (in Pisces) again. 

Maybe we can see the ways  nurturing without boundaries isn't really nurturing. What/who are we smother mothering with our good (or not so good) intentions? Venus is Gemini likes to keep things light/humorous/curious. Maybe mama Ceres needs to chill out. 

(my daughter obviously tunes out when I talk about "important" things, but when we chat about recipes, quick plans, newsy gossip, etc, and I allow her to decide when a heavier topic can be broached ie wait for her to initiate - my thoughts are more welcomed. And I knew this already, but must have forgotten and have been reminded again lately)

Conversely this might be something about how too much frivolous conversation/flitting from this to that keeps us from really connecting/listening. Ceres in Pisces wants the complete merger. Gulp! 

Ceres also rules season of life issues/things outside our control and Venus in Gemini is about wanting different things/being attractive to and attracting a variety. Maybe something about baby steps toward something else. Be curious.

(Ivanka Trump's - somewhat premature/ill-timed - campaign with business leaders, "find something new" is on target with the North Node in Gemini - should have been announced during the Gemini Moon though instead of comfort/stability-loving Taurus and probably with a Leo Sun! - I have no idea if the actual plans have any meat on their bones or it's just a fluffy headline, but the idea "find something new-ish" is going to be the way through for all of us, sooner or later, unless we want to be just hanging onto everything by our finger nails until they are ripped out, too.)

Ultimately Gemini/Pisces are mutable signs and Venus is the queen of balance and Ceres got what she wanted when she learned to compromise. 

This ain't our first rodeo with this square (we had this on June 8th with Venus retrograde and Ceres direct), so what have we learned?
