The Moon in Aquarius squared Aquarian co-ruler Uranus (retrograde) while we slept (EDT) and goes for a LONG void starting tonight at 5:53PM EDT off an opportunistic sextile to a retrograde Mars making today a good day to roll with any twists and turns that come up/do something new and take action - maybe with Mars retrograde to get something re-invigorated/moving again.
She will be void all day tomorrow, until 5:18PM EDT when she moves into Pisces - making tomorrow not the day to start something new. It's a Sunday. Get some extra rest. Time gets stretchy. Actions won't be very sticky, so stick to routine tasks.
(The unstickiness of void Moon activity should not be discounted - Obama's second term started on a void Moon and Trump's first order of business was the unraveling of it. I once decided to paint my porch floor. Knowing this was not such a routine task - such as sweeping the floor, etc - and knowing the Void Moon wasn't particularly auspicious (having gone void off a square) and my natal Cancer Moon's finickiness during voids, I did give some thought to waiting the void out, but I thought to myself it's just a porch floor and it was a very short void, so I plowed on. First order of business - move everything off the porch. And I had already kind of done this, but there was some heavy wood that still needed to be moved. Thinking myself #clever, #notclever, I moved the heavy pieces under the porch for safe/temporary keeping. I was about to start painting when I realized this under the porch storage was not such a good idea - dripping paint - so I had to move all the heavy wood a second time - this "doing it all over again" lasted almost exactly to the minute the length of the Moon's void. Also I was not happy with the color and repainted the whole freakin' thing a few weeks later. Now I have a natal Moon in Cancer, so my Moon answers to whoever the Moon is answering to - so may be more susceptible to lunar issues than most, but you will find this kind of stuff is common if you started tracking it - which I am not suggesting we do - let's not make ourselves any crazier than 2020 already has - just something to keep in mind for big starts or projects that involve moving hundreds of pounds of wood)
Today's the day Venus moves into her exact smooth trine with Saturn at 25 degrees.
Virgo/Capricorn. Earth. Commitments. There are real solutions here to relationship/financial problems. They will be more practical than sexy, but there is SOMETHING here. We attract what we want by being disciplined/responsible/doing the work. Committing ourselves to small steps that make up the hard slog up the hill. We already know what these steps are.
This is the opposite of the Void Moon's unstickiness - THIS WILL BE STICKY. Think fly paper vs washi paper. And if you have never touched fly paper -and I'm not sure why I have - think of that cricut stuff that can't be unstuck if it touches itself. Something like that. Putting a 'ring on it' now means we will pay hell (and this is Saturn, so I am not really joking here) getting it off. Keep this in mind.
We talked about this in the weekly:
"Venus rules love, money, our values, women, beauty, our self-esteem (Libra and Taurus) and in Virgo, ruler of our 6th house house is currently concerned with our day-to-day activities, our routine, work, co-workers, pets and our health. Saturn rules structure and things that are real and have weight, time, goals, hard work, discipline, fathers, older men and responsibility (Capricorn).
Trines create smooth energy - the brakes are off - the vitality will flow and work together naturally. This trine will apply to our natal Virgo and Capricorn houses and their themes.
Now these houses are always in trine, but today, inhabited by attractive Venus and hard-working Saturn, the vibes are particularly useful.
If Venus and Saturn were people they would be a young, loving,
attractive woman and a serious, responsible older man. You can see how
these two people could bring out the best in each other (not in a sugar-daddy kind of way - Saturn ain't nobody's free ride).
We carry both these archetypes within us - what can we do now to cement their merger?
We could make a commitment (Saturn) within a relationship (Venus) now.
We could make a commitment with our money - maybe to the more responsible handling of it. We could make a commitment to
valuing ourselves. We could commit to the hard work of being more
beautiful (ie Venusian) or birthing something beautiful. We could
beautify (Venus) our career (Saturn). This would be a great time for
cosmetic changes within a business. Spruce ups now will pay off over
time.
Venus/Saturn is not going to be about developing some trendy thingamajig
because with Saturn the payoff comes over time and our trendy
thingamajig will be gathering cobwebs in the corner. For creators this isn't so much about new styles as new methods. Both
form (Venus) AND function (Saturn) will matter here. People will be
drawn to more traditional, quality items that will last. Rewards for past work can also come in now.
Our existing relationships can grow stronger since we can more easily get on the same page. There is a mutual respect here. Relationships between people of different ages started now would likely be long-lasting.
Mentors (Saturn) and muses (Venus) can show up. Take what you want seriously. Maybe you will get it. This has been in play for a couple days, is exact today and spends the next couple days unwinding, but is still in play."
