The Moon is now just barely past Uranus, and some of the more unsettling elements of this alignment may still be evident albeit in a very diminished way. This means the potential for emotionally unstable moods and feelings with a high degree of nervous restlessness.

Under these circumstances there may be a strong element of mental insecurity with doubts and poor self confidence. As a result there may be a bleak or pessimistic view of the future with some melancholia or depression. Not surprisingly this may lead to quite notable frustrations with indecision or uncertainty and a poor sense of concentration. In addition there may be trouble making up ones mind and important decisions are best left for a better time.

Some may seek to relieve the tensions of this period through drinking or eating more than usual, but in the case of alcohol this may lead to the release of particularly powerful moods and emotions.

Under the present climate it may feel harder to get going and some will find very little motivation in what they are doing with feelings of futility or a disinterested inclination that will be hard to shake off. To some extent there may be a strong desire for change but little incentive to initiate the necessary changes. Inevitably there may be a strong attraction for escapism in its limitless forms, and happy will be those able to take things at their own pace, with little demand on their time and efforts. In other words this is an atmosphere that may, if anything be very favourable to rest and relaxation, if at all possible.

This may not be the easiest of emotional climates, and some may feel oppressed with a heavy sense of doubt or insecurity, or simply find it hard to gain any sense of satisfaction from anything. However like any other celestially induced mood atmosphere this will soon pass and before long fade away completely.
