Today sees the alignment of the Moon and Saturn, both of which are in opposition to Uranus. With regard to moods and emotions this represents a sharply polarised emotional atmosphere.
The influence of Saturn will incline towards restrained, calculated and disciplined moods and feelings with the possibility of some depressional emotions or lowered self confidence and enthusiasm.
On the other hand the influence of Uranus will dispose to galvanic, unstable, and even extreme mood situations with the potential for upheaval within the family setting. Moon/Uranus conjunctions also instil, unusual, eccentric, or out of character feelings with bizarre or quirky mood traits, with the potential for even perverse modes of expression.
Under these circumstances there may be a strong element of escapist behaviour and feelings will be very powerfully experienced. In reality there will be a cancelling out of influences between Saturn and Uranus, which will ensure that for the most part the most extreme elements of either planet will be rendered less potent.
Another factor of this current alert sequence is that we have now seen the end of the Sun/Venus alignment which at the very least helped to ensure a more affectionate and intimate period of moods over the last six weeks or so. Now this has gone there may be raw feel to emotions with a less sympathetic edge. This will be made all the more evident by the fact that the Sun remains in opposition to Mars, with all its propensity towards, strident, forceful, passionate, and even violent emotions.
It will be seen that this is a highly complex emotional situation with contrasting moods that to some extent will cancel each other out. In the appropriate circumstances however each shade of influence may be apparent according to personal circumstances.
Alert is 8. Moon 90% illuminated.
