On FRIDAY, the Moon continues her monthly journey through Taurus, the sign of her exaltation. At 6:14PM EDT she meets up with change-maker Uranus. This is positive energy allowing us to release what needs to go, feel more comfortable with change/the future. Do something different.
This is also the day Pallas, at 24 degrees Taurus, squares a retrograde Saturn in Aquarius. Old rules, responsibilities, commitments, dealings with authority, groups, causes, limits, time constraints might force adjustments to our plans/strategies. We could hear a "no". Saturn is retrograde, so we should have been able to see this coming.
Pallas in Taurus is focused in on practical concerns - what makes the most sense/cents RIGHT NOW, so the square to Saturn in Aqua could bring up challenges/tension/worries about the future.
The Moon's conjunction with Uranus tonight - the modern ruler of Uranus - will help, allows an integration of the now with what's to come. In Taurus we can't be afraid to get our hands dirty.
On SATURDAY, the Moon in Taurus gets busy - squares Saturn at 9:01AM EDT (so repeating what Pallas did yesterday, more concerns about the future, roadblocks, limits, what authority is doing), sextiles Neptune at 10:05AM EDT and goes void off a smooth trine to Pluto at 3:02PM EDT. She is void until 7:13PM EDT when she gets busy in communicative Gemini.
The Moon/Saturn can feel depressing. Old responsibilities/pressures. Old rules. Group tension. Feeling what we don't/can't have. Luckily Luna quickly moves into an opportunistic sextile with Neptune.
Good time for a trip to the ocean/to get into some water. Relax. Rest. Make art/listen to music. For more than a week we've been dealing with these dueling Saturn/Neptune aspects - asking us to deal with these old rules and responsibilities while leaning into a NEW (with its feet in the past) dream.
That closing trine to Pluto feels like - all's well that ends well then we get a few hours to chill before the Moon in Gemini makes our Saturday night into Monday busy with lots of chatter and information. There should be a good flow. The Moon is making good aspects on Sunday, too - looks like a nice weekend, let's enjoy it!
Saturday is also the day Pallas makes her own sextile to Neptune (in step with Luna) and Ceres in Cancer sextiles Uranus.
Uranus/Ceres makes me think of free-range parenting. Or that expression about "if you love something let it go, if it comes back to you ...". Ceres in Cancer tends toward smother-mothering and this opportunistic sextile with freedom-loving Uranus can give everyone a little bit of breathing room. Also something here about forced changes/things we can't control creating opportunities for a simpler/more secure future. The 'out of control' stuff doesn't seem quite so problematic. Taurus/Cancer is comfortable/makes everything feel better.
Neptune/Pallas is reinforcing the Moon/Neptune sextile from Taurus/Pisces. Building the new/not so new dream. Benefiting from our intuition. Pallas in Taurus is smart practical/grounded strategies that make sense/cents and don't we love a double dose of Pisces magic added into the mix
(keep in mind we need to do something with a sextile to make anything happen, fertile dirt AND fairy-dust)!
