Today's astro. Times are for B.S.T
27th ~ We start the day off with a trine to Jupiter at 00:09 which brings a gentle emotional expansion but don't get complacent because within hours all hell is gonna break loose up there in the heavens. 04:30 and we have the quarter Moon and wow, what a chart! The Sun and Moon are caught up in the crossfire with Uranus and Pluto which means that we could see fireworks down here on planet reality.
To make matters worse we have Moon still involved in a yod with Neptune and Mercury. Most of the excess energy is likely to be filtered through Neptune, so escapism will be high on the agenda for a lot of people. The Moon will be edging into a direct opposition with Uranus and a square to Pluto, as the hours pass the morning could be fraught with tension for those who have planets in aspect to the cardinal grand cross. This is not an easy day at all.
These challenging aspects can produce some positive results too ~ such as breakthrough, illumination, strength and a fairer conditions all round. But it's going to take an awful lot of grace to overcome any temptation to hurl fury.
We have a possibility of scapegoating the enemy too, in the chart set for the UK we can see Pluto in the 7th house which says it'll be too easy to see all the bad stuff in everyone else.
On an archetypal level, the battle here is between mother and father or the home versus the state. It is nature versus nurture in its most primordial form. How this will manifest back here in reality is anyone's guess and we have to remember that this fight will be a long one and it will most definitely not be over until the fat lady sings which is a good few years away yet.
The Sun will continue to move closer to direct opposition with Pluto over the coming days and any tension that is building now needs an outlet in order to disperse and deflect any potential external conflict. Neptune is in a supporting role to the Sun which suggests that daydreams, general delusion, drugs & alcohol, the cinema, photography, swimming or sleep can act as safety nets.
Another big event for the day is Venus turning direct at 16:08. This is good news as we can start to direct our attention outwards on the emotional front. The last thing we need right now is to be holding back on sharing our resources. The Moon will be trining Venus for most of the morning and this means that our core values can help us to stay balanced whilst the outer planets are having their spat.
If you want exact times ~
Moon trines Venus @ 07:16
Moon squares Pluto @ 08:42
