Learning about different creative techniques will be very stimulating today. Inquisitive Mercury is sextile with intuitive Neptune. Reading about painting, creative writing, or handcrafts will inspire you to begin a project of your own. Don’t feel locked into any particular techniques. Treat rules like suggestions and develop your own method. You’ll be pleased with the result.
If you are already adept at a skill like photography, dance, or filmmaking, you might want to teach a class. Your students’ energy and excitement will renew your own enthusiasm. Pretty soon, you’ll be producing more work and becoming more inventive.
Looking ahead, money will be scarce. Everyone will have to be more resourceful with what they’ve got. Mercury’s opposition to Saturn demands we all tighten our belts. Budget accordingly.
The Sun is at 13 degrees Taurus, the Moon is in Pisces, Mercury is in Taurus, Venus is in Taurus and Mars is in Taurus. With this combination of planetary energies try to: Rise to a challenge. Leap a tall building in a single bound. Try not to: Beat a dead horse. Give up, give in or just move on.
Today’s exact aspects and their keywords are:
- Moon Sextile Mercury: Expressing Emotions.

And finally happy birthday to Ben Elton, Christina Hendricks and Christopher Cross.If it’s your birthday today, the year ahead will be one of whimsy and wonder for you. You’ll get spiritual fulfillment from art projects. Set some time aside each day to express your creative side, and don’t let anyone interrupt this interlude. There’s more to life than work and responsibility.
