For the first time in around a week the intensity of moods and emotions is beginning to fall just a little. This follows the Full Moon of around three days ago and also the lessening of several planetary alignments that have exerted noticeable authority over the last few weeks. Even so there is still need to be wary as the overall mood atmosphere still carries the potential for difficult moods and emotions.

The opposition between the Sun and Uranus is now passed its peak, and in the next few days will fade altogether. For around three weeks this has brought a spate of unusual moods and emotions that will have brought many to the edge of crisis with extreme and dramatic mood shifts that are not easy to control. Added to this there is the tendency for strange, bizarre and unusual tastes and values with out of character thoughts and feelings that at times may seem to come from the mind of a different person.

This period also continues to exert an energetic and zestful degree of enterprise with an appetite for new plans and ambitions with a determined attitude to get things done. However this mood may suffer from unrealistic expectations with an over confident view of ones abilities that could lead to mistakes, accidents, or a reckless expenditure on trivial items that may quickly lose their appeal. In the same way this may be a risky time to make investments as ones sense of judgement is likely to err towards wishful thinking rather than a well thought out plan of action.

Venus, Mercury, and Mars continue to be aligned and for some weeks now this has added urgency and energy to the emotional spectrum with vastly polarised emotions. These range from more agreeable and sympathetic moods generated by Venus and Mercury, to an over anxious and nervous disposition, and also include more aggressive and confrontational moods influenced by Mars. In this current post Full Moon atmosphere these have been heightened quite considerably and still continue to bring powerful moods and feelings that for some may prove to be unsettling and uncomfortable.

All in all this is an atmosphere that is gradually changing away from the very heightened moods of the last week or so. On the other hand this will still remain a complex emotional setting even if the overall impression will be one of a noticeable decline in the intensity of moods and feelings.
