We are now just two or three days short of the Full Moon. As a result moods and emotions will inevitably be tense and on edge with a high degree of nervous restlessness. This will be made even more apparent in the days ahead when the Moon comes into opposition to Mercury. This will create feelings of intense alertness and while this may be very invigorating for some, it could prove highly stressful for others.

Suffice it to say that the next few days will see a huge upsurge in tension and anxiety and as always with the Full Moon this could lead to contentious encounters with the possibility of arguments and volatile expression. Fears and apprehensions will also be in the ascendant and those vulnerable to panic attacks may find the next few days to be highly challenging. For most there will be a testing degree of impatience with irritability and easily aroused passions.

Under these circumstances problems will seem magnified and stressful situations may arise from relatively trivial causes. This may well apply to ones dealings with others as tolerance and patience may be tested to the full.

On the more positive side this period can be utilised to good effect where great effort and determination are required. As well as this there may be added determination and enthusiasm to succeed but efforts may need to be carefully directed and subject to extra discipline as distractions could lead to time wasting activities. Similarly there will be an increased sense of creative ability, though this too needs discipline and perseverance to make the best of it.

Coming days will see yet more tense and nervous emotions with rather more aggressive and confrontational feelings that may need careful management. There will also be more sensitive and vulnerable emotions that could leave one exposed to troubling states of mind.

Alert is 7.5. Moon 95% illuminated.
