Until around 17:00 GMT the Moon will continue to be in opposition to Mars. This means a firmer more determinative attitude with improved resolve and determination. In addition thoughts may be more enthusiastically inclined with a more optimistic outlook. There will also be a firm sense of like and dislike so that feelings will be very forcefully expressed, conveying passion and easily aroused emotions. On the other hand this atmosphere also relates very well to a vacational setting and will be a perfect accompaniment to those who have time on their hands to take things easy and relax.

Under these circumstances it may feel easier to get going with the possibility of a renewed zest for on going schemes and ventures. Although still around 6 days away the impending Full Moon is just beginning to make its effects noticeable, and in the days ahead this will translate into more forceful and aggressive inclinations. Some of this may already be apparent and before long there will be a definite rise in tension and anxiety.

The current phase of the Moon means there is always the potential for more sedate and balanced emotions but also feelings of doubt and insecurity. This could mean that important decisions could be subject to a hesitant or wavering disposition and there may be a degree of mental confusion in considering the course of ones future actions.

Some may still continue to experience melancholic, reflective or depressive thoughts, but coming days should see these fade away as a more forceful atmosphere takes its place.

All in all this present emotional climate finds itself in a transitional phase between softer and more sedate emotions, and those of a considerably more potent nature that will become all the more apparent in the days ahead.

Alert is 6.5. Moon 75% illuminated.
