The Astrologer Daily: March 11th, 2012
By Kelli Fox, The Astrologer
Today’s a day of divided allegiances. With the Moon in probing Scorpio, you’ll want to get to the heart of the matter. There’s an urge to go below the surface and dig deeper to find hidden truths.
At the same time, there’s a conflicting desire to just take things as they come. Routines feel comfortable and you’re not itching to break out of them. This is because the Moon is making challenging oppositions to two planets in slow and steady Taurus–gracious Venus and expansive Jupiter. Regardless of the path you chart, don’t forget to back up your computer today– Mercury turns retrograde tomorrow.
The Sun is at 21 degrees Pisces, the Moon is in Scorpio, Mercury is in Aries, Venus is in Taurus and Mars is in Virgo. With this combination of planetary energies try to: Play a little tune. Anything can be a musical instrument. Try not to: Avoid a little exercise. Sweat is not a dirty word.
Today’s exact aspects and their keywords are:
– Moon Trine Neptune: Finding the Spirit
– Moon Opposite Venus: Feeling Oversensitive
– Moon Opposite Jupiter: A False Sense of Optimism
– Moon Sextile Pluto: Emotional Compost
– Moon Sextile Mars: Strong Life Force
Mars in Virgo is retrograde until April 13th and Saturn in Libra is retrograde until June 25th.
Happy birthday to Johnny Knoxville, Joel and Benji Madden and Thora Birch.
