Once again this is mood situation capable of a strong variation of emotion, with very powerful feelings. These may swiftly alternate between tense nervous restlessness, to a sensitive, delicate, and insecure disposition prone to a pessimistic or apprehensive outlook.

At the same time there may be a tendency to more aggressive, irritable or short tempered outbursts that in some circumstances may become especially heated.

All this comes at a time that sees numerous powerful conjunctions come to a peak in one of the years most concentrated periods of planetary alignments. Over the last few weeks this has led to a highly complex series of emotions that for some will have frequently reached crisis level.

Under these circumstances there is a possibility of an insular, detached disposition that will be self absorbed and relate poorly to the needs of others. This can result in a closed and introverted mode of behaviour with poor concentration, or an escapist attitude that will not adapt well to a strictly regulated routine.

One consequence of this may be a confusion of ideas, impressions, and feelings that will be no help in reaching major decisions and choices. In fact there may be a strong aversion for situations requiring a firm element of responsibility and some frustration with a pile up of tasks that may be left for another time.

In many respects this is an atmosphere that will suit those willing and able to relax and take things easy but may seem especially pressured for those with tight deadlines to fulfil.

On the more positive side this period may be ideal for creative and expressional activities with the possibility of inspired and highly original work produced to the highest of standards.

This period may also invoke thoughts and impressions that tend towards spiritual, mystical, or philosophical consciousness and perception. These may not immediately be obvious but the subliminal stamp of this period could open inner pathways to increased future awareness and more rewarding horizons.

There is no doubt this is a mood atmosphere that some will find difficult to contend with, whereas others may revel in its quirky and vibrant atmosphere.

Coming days are likely to see broadly similar moods and emotions, but with a steady decline in intensity towards the latter part of the week. However this will always remain a complex mood situation capable of uncomfortable and unsettling feelings, with widely fluctuating emotions.
