ACTION in the PLANETS; MOON ASPECTS VENUS, MARS, NEPTUNE, SATURN, & PLUTO!

 The Moon begins the day in "Visionary" Aquarius & then enters into "Peace-loving" Pisces. Both the Sun & Moon collaborate with Dreamy Neptune in "Intuitive" Pisces enhancing intuition, an active imagination and fantasy-filled thoughts. Mentally, you may feel as if you are in a dream-like state or a bit spacey. Prophetic Dreams are possible. Be careful of over-indulgence during this transit. Fantasy is favored, along with meditation, hopefulness, and prayer. In the wee hours of the morning, the  "Humanitarian" Aquarius Moon forms a divine aspect to Venus in "Charming Libra encouraging peace, love and cooperation in love and relationships of all sorts. By  mid-afternoon, Mars in "Security-Conscious" Capricorn stimulates the Pisces Moon, inspiring you with insightful ideas and motivation for work, career and money-related issues.  Early evening,  Saturn, the Stabilizer, joins the Moon helping you blend imaginative ideas & practical reality. You may have the opportunity to develop creative yet realistic plan to work out a long-existing problem.  Pluto, in the sign of Capricorn, joins the "Perceptive" Pisces Moon, encouraging a desire for change and a need for security both in work/career and on the home front.  influence is overshadowing the day. 

Relationships take on a more serious stance during this time frame due to the Neptune-Pisces influence. You could easily get swept off your feet into a dream-like trance especially if you are in a new relationship. 

Overall, it's a great day to bring out the artist, musician or poet in you. Brainstorming ideas and jotting them down is favorable. You may receive out of the ordinary illuminating insights via art, mediation, reiki, prannic healing, yoga, martial arts, pilates, tai chi, chi gong, feng shui, pottery, music, writing, a walk in nature, or anything that puts you in alignment with the universe and the divine, ultimately allowing you to discover your soul purpose!
