The Moon enters Capricorn and spends the morning squaring Saturn in Libra
and then conjuncts Pluto in Capricorn at 1 this afternoon,
which also squares Saturn.
This accentuates the present political crisis of the country,
in which a minority party does everything in its power
to prevent and subvert a majority party from governing.
There is no such thing loyal opposition anymore.
The minority party has allowed itself to become the enemy of democracy.
Fortunately the mood lightens a little this afternoon
when the Moon is optimistically aligned with Jupiter in Pisces,
so there will be smiles and laughter for awhile.
But the underlying conflicts persist, as the Moon is at uncomfortable odds
with Mars in Leo and the Sun in Aquarius throughout the evening.
__________________________________

Aries … With a little self discipline you can keep
your part of the world in good balance and control.
Then you can go about your business,
knowing what your priorities are and fulfilling them.

Taurus … Relax those inner stresses and tensions
and reduce those anxieties and worries.
Let the brain focus on the moment and let the body breathe.
The reinvigoration project has then begun.

Gemini … This is not the day to play with money.
Financial facts have to be faced and figured out.
Once you’ve done that you can turn your imagination loose.
Just don’t let it jump the fence.

Cancer … The Moon is active in your opposite sign,
Capricorn, which tunes you into people.
But today people are being enigmatic and mysterious.
Quietly penetrate these enigmas and mysteries.

Leo … When you find yourself brooding and feeling a bit hypo-chondriacal,
get in touch with someone and get involved.
The brooding will go and the restlessness will pass.

Virgo … Your feelings and passions are good, yet you doubt them.
And before you know it you’re worrying about money.
Get busy instead and focus on your work, forgetting all else.

Libra … Watch out for petty power plays and power trips,
especially those you play on yourself.
Get focused and create your way out of them and have a little fun.
Go out and play a little.

Scorpio … You’re mentally and intellectually highly sensitive,
so it’s important to filter out negative attitudes and thoughts.
Some people don’t know the power of their thoughts, but you do.

Sagittarius … Travel is tricky, so be on defense.
Even though you have a great many practical things to do,
don’t be in a hurry.
There’s plenty of time and some nice leisure time later.

Capricorn … The Moon is active in your stars
and it is conjuncting Pluto (also in your stars).
Pluto is the planet of sex, death and regeneration.
Rise like a phoenix from the ashes of the past.

Aquarius ... Your mood is personal and private,
and at the moment you don't have a clear sense of the future.
So forget that. There's only the present.
The present is the only thing you have to play with,
and play with it you should

Pisces … There are financial matters with which to deal
and deal with them you must.
But deal with them quietly.
Soon it’ll be like playing chess, which is a game;
which financial matters are too.
