We are now in the midst of a period of particularly complex moods and feelings. This is likely to see clashing emotions with considerable variation and strong nervous restlessness.

As a result there may be frustrating changes of emotional direction with little sense of concentration or overall degree of control. Decisions may be wavering, uncertain, and haphazard in their resolution, and feelings may wander sharply between one state and another. In addition there may be friction or indifference in personal relationships, with the likelihood of an insular and isolated outlook that may not relate well to the needs of others.

At the same time there may be quirky and eccentric tastes and values with an opening to newer mental horizons of a previously unexpected nature. These may invite suggestions to future plans and ideas, but may lack the necessary thrust to carry them forward. However this is also likely to be a seminal period with a storing of impressions that may likely be acted upon at a future date.

In many respects this is a mood atmosphere of immensely challenging proportions. On the one hand a testing, probing, and confusing, emotional situation, and on the other, a time of considerable dilemma in needing to separate ones important needs from a sea of trivial desires that may become all too numerous. For some this may result in a blockage of action, inertia, or stagnation, and a brief period where little appears to get done.

All in all this is a mood situation of intense complexity with sensitive, delicate, and deep emotions contrasted by others of a more bolder nature that on occasions may seem far removed from ones ‘normal’ state of mind. There may also be a strong need for affection and a love of what is good and just, with a heightened appreciation of things that bring joy to the senses.

Challenging, as well as limiting, this mood atmosphere also offers, for the bolder inclined, the possibility to expand ones inner emotional boundaries to a considerable extent.
