Today sees a five way alignment between the Moon, Mars, Mercury, Venus, and the Earth. This comes just days after the Full Moon at a time that is already rich in planetary alignments. As a result this period will still be full of intense moods and emotions and even if these are not quite as powerful as just a few days ago they still have the potential to cause problems.

Under the current celestial pattern moods associated with zestful energy and restlessness will be very much to the fore. This means plenty of energetic activity with an alert and vivacious mental outlook that will have plenty of plans and ideas. Creative and constructive inclinations will all be well indicated with an enterprising disposition that will find genuine strides forward towards ones desired aims and aspirations. However the influence of Uranus is still very strong and this may result in unnecessary risks with a foolhardy attitude that may not fully weigh up the implications or consequences of ones actions.

As mentioned in numerous previous alerts the Sun still remains in opposition to Uranus and this is creating highly unpredictable moods and circumstances,. In addition there will be eccentric, unstable, rebellious and headstrong gestures that may easily result in friction or upheaval within the family setting. To some extent this possibility may be offset by the alignment between Mercury and Venus which may instil more understanding and harmonious feelings but there will be an inevitable clash between two very polarised attitudes - that of outright confrontation and aggression and a more moderate and tolerant mood pattern. As to which of these predominate will largely depend on personal circumstances, but it means that this period will be subject to widely fluctuating emotions that may turn one way and then another.

Full Moon tensions and restlessness still have the ability to cause worry and apprehension so that problems may appear magnified or acquire undue dimensions. However there will be enough positive energy to turn moods towards constructive answers though feelings of any sort will be intensely experienced and may still be enough to drive some to crisis level.

Alert is 8. Moon 95% illuminated.
