• Lunar position ~ Aries – Today’s square between the Moon and Pluto indicates intense emotions with drama around every corner, while the Moon conjunct Mars signals insensitivity toward others. Both may be at the heart of the innovative approach mentioned above and it may be best to step away from the drama and focus on your own needs or creative projects until the tension passes (Moon sextile N Node/trine S Node). Refer to the current Esoteric Influences for more information regarding today’s influences.
• Significant Aspects that may inspire or inform magickal workings: (Refer to the Nodes for further aspects and note the aspects with the Ascendant)

  • Sun (10th/Capricorn) conjunct Mercury (10th/Capricorn) – suggests effective communication, but listening to others is challenging

• Energetic Quality/Mode ~ Cardinal (initiating, motivating) energies are the strongest today.
• Rays ~ The same Ray influences from yesterday continue today with the 1st (will/power), 3rd (active intelligence), and 7th (ceremonial order/magick) Rays having the greatest impact, with all others significantly less so. The 2nd Ray, in particular, is having the least effect signal that love and wisdom are at a minimum today. For further information, this post may be helpful.
