The Moon is in Virgo now - nurturing us through practicality, organization, dotting our i's and crossing our t's, being of service, cleaning up our act. Our focus could be on paperwork, the details, our daily obligations, our health, our work, our pets.

She will trine (brakes off) change-maker Uranus at 1:16PM EDT and go on to sextile (opportunity) Mercury while opposing Ceres at 2:47PM EDT.

The trine to Uranus incorporates change and that 'one step in front of the other' process Virgo is so good at. Take steps toward something else. Small things create big changes. Things should slide into place. This is where precise meets innovative. It pays off to step outside the box, so step outside the box.

The sextile to Mercury - putting the Moon who rules Cancer and Mercury who rules Virgo in each other signs and strengthening BOTH OF THEM - speaks of comforting words/news. Speak from your heart. Keep it practical.

At the same time the Moon is getting comfy and realistic with Mercury, she is also opposing her girl Ceres (in mystical and unbounded Pisces).

If there is some over-nurturing going on/or our own demands for nurturing are somehow overblown and cannot be sated - an opposition to the Moon in Virgo can mean a step-by-step process to dial this back is needed. Virgo is the 'fixer' and the opposition could be showing us a situation that cannot be fixed and needs to be released. Virgo/Pisces are health signs - so we want to be practicing good self-care now, especially our mental health (remember Ceres in Pisces - she was at the big meeting in January - is one factor in play with the virus, too). Ceres also rules change of life issues and in Pisces can be about letting go. Note - Mercury (in Cancer) will be trining Ceres tomorrow and this is building today - there are ways to communicate that are comforting/soothing. Keep in mind with Mercury in Cancer we need to stop every now and then and ask ourselves, "am I feeling the actual situation or am I feeling my thinking about the situation?".

Also keep in mind anytime we talk about Mercury now, the North Node (our collective way forward) is in Gemini - answering to Mercury, so our words/communications/information can be more powerful/more impactful than we might realize in the moment. Mercury's LONG journey through Cancer this summer has meant we are feeling what people are saying/feeling the information we are absorbing.

Our own words will be impacting other people emotionally, too. Keep this in mind.
