The Moon spends the whole day in the sign of Capricorn, and we will be keeping most of emotional responses very much to ourselves today. The Capricorn Moon hates to appear weak or needy, and even if we do require help or assistance we will soldier on to look capable, even if we know that we can't achieve what we are setting out to do just by ourselves. In the same way we will be reticent to show much emotion lest we show our vulnerabilities. We won't ask for emotional support, but actually we will crave it more than you would ever think.
Initially Moon makes a sextile to Neptune and this connection for a little while lightens up our emotions and almost frees them up. We will still have a disciplined approach, but we will be able to marry this up to our imaginations and vision, this is a great aspect for creative or charity work where our we can use the compassion and inspiration within us to best effect.
The Moon moves on to conjunct Pluto and there will be much more intensity in the middle of the day. We will hide our emotions in very much the same way as the Moon in Capricorn does, and yet we will feel every situation very intimately too. We will demand certainty now, and any prevarication or sitting on the fence will not be tolerated. Yes or no, in or out, commit or hold back, black or white. Those are the answers we will appreciate the most.
Just before the day ends, the Moon forms an easier sextile to Jupiter and once again we will be able to loosen up and take things more with a pinch of salt. The feeling we will get now will be one of optimism and adventure, and we will be much more forgiving than we were earlier on. If we were a bit harsh or demanding on other people, we will eventually find it in our hearts to apologise and admit that we were indeed wrong.
Now throughout this day there is a very potent star planet conjunction as Mars makes contact with one of the great stars of the sky, the star Antares that sits in the heart of the constellation of Scorpio. This conjunction mirrors the Moon Pluto one, and it will up the intensity levels to a high pitch. You may find yourself very much on edge, wanting to get things done as quickly as possible with a minimum of fuss. All our desires will be fired up, out tempers will be sharp, our reflexes good and our passions and sexual needs on high alert. This is a life and death connection and the need for survival will be paramount. The overriding emotion will be one of competition, and of winning and losing. It will be one where the survival of the fittest will be the most important factor, so be prepared to fight for what you want and what you want to achieve, and if you want it enough, then victory and the gold medal can indeed be yours.
