Lunar position – Leo – Although you have a transforming effect on others, sometimes you feel as if you’re invisible and have little effect at all. It may feel as if no one really cares about you, but over time, you’ve discovered that your self-esteem isn’t reflected in the perceptions of others but in how you see yourself. While this issue may stem from early childhood woundings that seem insurmountable, those difficult experiences have reinforced a level of compassion and intuition in you that provide comfort and support to others. Refer to the current Esoteric Influences for more information regarding today’s influences.
Sign strength – Aries is strongest today signaling motivation, independence, courage, decisiveness, assertive/impulsive, lacking tact

Black Moon Lilith ~ Taurus — remaining in your comfort zone is tempting, but it also signals an unwillingness to take risks toward a better outcome. In the 1st House of self and identity, the risk may involve containing the darker aspects of self and the control of one’s ego that may impact self-expression.
Node influences ~ N Node – Gemini; S Node – Sagittarius describes the need for self-control and a focus on a spiritual perspective. The challenge involves understanding the viewpoints of others as well as expressing your own in a helpful and respectful manner. A conjunct with Mars signals the need to gain some self-reliance and assert yourself more, while a trine between the North Node and Saturn suggests an enthusiastic attitude that can direct you into achievement in many areas, specifically those involving communication (Mercury square The N Node/S Node).

Rays ~ The 1st Ray of will and power shifts into the strongest position today indicating we have plenty of will to assert yourself and manifest the 7th Ray’s influence of ceremonial order and magick.
From there, the 3rd Ray of active intelligence is next suggesting understanding and the expression of ideas are both present and should apply well to the 5th Ray of concrete knowledge and science.
The 2nd Ray of love and wisdom is stronger in its effect than the 6th Ray of devotion and idealism indicating wisdom controls ideology; however, with the 4th Ray of harmony through conflict having significantly less of an impact, coming together in shared understanding may be challenging.
