We are now just four days short of the Full Moon and inevitably moods and emotions will soon begin to display more stress and tension.

So far this has yet to become too apparent and if anything this atmosphere shows few great highs or lows. However with the proximity of the Full Moon this can change quite suddenly and one should be wary of abrupt mood swings, that may easily turn towards heightened aggression and conflict.

In some respects this atmosphere may be one of restrained and disciplined energy with limited enthusiasm or inspiration. It may feel just a little harder to get going and those on a tight deadline may come to feel especially pressured. On the other hand those able to take things at their own pace may relish the unhurried nature of this atmosphere, which may be conducive to rest and relaxation.

It should be remembered that Saturn remains in long term opposition to Uranus. As mentioned on numerous other occasions this can lead to a contrast of emotions that range from highly ambitious moods to ones of a more depressive nature that show poor self confidence and lack of esteem. This may also involve a pessimistic outlook with a gloomy view of ones future prospects with thoughts of futility or lack of purpose.

For the moment moods may straddle a fine line between those of a rather nondescript emotional atmosphere and those of a considerably more restless and turbulent nature that may soon appear as we move closer to the Full Moon of three to four days time, according to the various time zones.

As mentioned in a previous alert this months Full Moon, as with last months, will be more powerful than usual because it coincides exactly with Lunar Perigee, or the time of the month when the Moon is closest to the Earth, to the extent that it even appears larger than usual.

Alert is 7. Moon 70% illuminated.
