Restless, In A Good Way
You won't want to sit still today. Point that somewhere rather than resisting it.
Today in one sentence
You won't settle today — give the restlessness a direction instead of treating it as a fault.
Worth doing
- Change the setting; work somewhere else
- Do the thing you've been putting off out of boredom
Worth postponing
- Forcing yourself to sit with it
What already peaked
Today's main contact is already separating: Moon in Aries sextile Uranus in Gemini (1°46′), exact earlier and loosening now. You're reading this on the downslope of it. Also past exact: Mars in Cancer square Saturn retrograde in Aries (1°13′); Sun in Virgo square Uranus in Gemini (1°40′).
What's steady all day
Still tightening: Neptune retrograde in Aries sextile Pluto retrograde in Aquarius (0°10′); Jupiter in Leo trine Saturn retrograde in Aries (0°20′). Saturn, Neptune, Pluto are retrograde — those themes are being revisited rather than begun.
What this asks of your sign
Whole-sign houses, counted from your sun sign: your sign is the 1st, the next along the 2nd, and so on. Aries holds Moon, Gemini holds Uranus.
- Aries — Your own body and face with messages and short trips behind it. You are the one carrying it today; say so before it leaks.
- Taurus — Rest and the inner world with money and belongings behind it. Step back far enough to see the shape of it.
- Gemini — Friends and long-range hopes with your own body and face behind it. One person in your circle already solved this.
- Cancer — Career and public standing with rest and the inner world behind it. The public version and the private one need to match.
- Leo — Study and belief with friends and long-range hopes behind it. What you believe is doing work the facts should do.
- Virgo — Shared money and what stays private with career and public standing behind it. The honest version costs less than the managed one.
- Libra — Partnership with study and belief behind it. Your other half and your plans want different things today.
- Scorpio — Daily work and health with shared money and what stays private behind it. The routine is the lever, not your willpower.
- Sagittarius — Romance and creativity with partnership behind it. Make something badly rather than plan it perfectly.
- Capricorn — Home and family with daily work and health behind it. Someone at home pays for a problem that started elsewhere.
- Aquarius — Messages and short trips with romance and creativity behind it. Answer briefly or not at all.
- Pisces — Money and belongings with home and family behind it. What you own and what you owe are one conversation.
The background
Neptune and Pluto are 0°10′ from an exact sextile. They shift a fraction of a degree a week, so they're the weather of the season and not of your Sunday. Nothing you decide today turns on them.
Tomorrow
The Moon holds Aries through tomorrow. Same weather, one more day of it.
Restlessness is energy that hasn't been given a job.
