The Moon and Mars both just entered signs that make them feel stymied and unable to express themselves fully. Mars wants to act on personal impulses. But Libra is demanding that it consider the effect of those actions on others. The Moon wants to feel the full breadth of human emotion, but Capricorn is demanding that it consider the practicality of those emotions.

And now these two uncomfortable planets are squaring each other. We are in this weird space of having to consider many different variables at once. I want to do X, but how will that affect others? Do the ends justify the means? Are the feelings of others important? Are my feelings relevant, or am I navel-gazing?

Meanwhile, the background energy of Venus square Pluto persists. It has been asking us all to transform our relationships from superficial transactions to something deeper and more sustainable.

What does all of this mean in a nutshell? We are all grappling with how to meet others' needs while fulfilling our external goals or societal obligations.

Tarot Card of the Day: King of Cups. The King of Cups is in full emotional integrity. There is no discord between what he says, thinks, feels, and does which is the ultimate goal for all of us. If you are saying or doing one thing, but thinking and feeling another, take time out to evaluate that wobble. Where is the lie hiding? Mercury in Scorpio sextile the Moon in Capricorn will help you figure it out.
