We are now just two or three days away from the next Full Moon and this will lead to agitated and sometimes turbulent emotions with increased nervous restlessness. This will become ever more apparent in the days ahead which will be shaped by a particularly colorful run of Lunar alignments in double quick succession. In every other respect this mood scene is very similar to the previous day, so we reproduce it below as moods have barely changed.

As mentioned in previous alerts we are now at the beginning of a two and a half week alignment between the Sun and Jupiter. This will add significant balance against some of the more strident effects of this Full Moon period.

Likely mood traits include expansive, exaggerated, and overtly emotional mood impulses with more optimistic, good humoured and generous feelings with the risk of careless, reckless, and over confident gestures. In turn this may lead to needless accidents, mishaps, or large financial expenditure on trivial or frivolous gestures that may later be the source of considerable regret. Essentially it means that decisions may be filled with an unreasonably inflated optimism so that major choices may not benefit from the best of consideration.

Also likely are feelings of conceit or false superiority that may lead to serious misjudgements and ill conceived plans and ideas.

We are also just into the start of a seven day alignment involving Mercury and Neptune. This will lead to sensitivity of mental expression with easily disturbed emotions, though also contributing to intuitive, idealistic, and impressionable inclinations.

Less agreeable will be a disposition to confusion and absent-mindedness with vague fears and imaginings.

All in all this is a highly complex mood atmosphere with contrasting emotions and extremes of mood and feeling that will become ever more sharper in the days ahead.

Alert is 8. Moon 81% illuminated.
