This current alert period sees a complex and at times turbulent mood period capable of extreme variations. These may swiftly alternate between reserved, flattened, or pessimistic emotions and those of an altogether more aggressive, confrontational, or over assertive manner.

In addition there may be disordered, unusual, or out of character feelings so that minor events may be twisted into the realms of personal crisis.

This is very much an either/or situation where moods inhabit a delicate domain between well intentioned thoughts and inclinations or those of a more malicious or argumentative disposition.

At the same time there may be strong positive energy for on going schemes and ventures, but also a doubtful or hesitant influence to act against more extreme reactions.

Under these circumstances volatile and heightened feelings my easily be contrasted by compassionate, understanding, and more sympathetic emotions. However this is also a mood atmosphere likely to be readily disposed to isolated, escapist, or selfish tendencies that may not relate well to the needs of others.

By contrast there may be a strong need for intimacy and affection, but lacking the warmth of spirit to make the best possible use of it.

All in all this is a mood atmosphere of complex alternatives. On the one hand the carefree element of wider or more unconventional imaginings, and on the other, the caution of that inner voice that casts sober focus on the eventual consequences of ones future actions.

The more positive aspect of this current mood atmosphere is the ability to see and perceive beyond the ordinary, with a zestful, alert, disciplined, and focused outlook. This can help lay down plans for future ideas and expand ones horizons to a considerable extent.

In many respects this is a confused and complex mood period that comes at the height of one of the years most concentrated periods of planetary alignments. Erratic behaviour may alternate with that of supreme rationality, efficiency and productivity. However there may also be a disposition to wandering or daydreaming inclinations eating up time with seemingly little being accomplished.

The most positive aspect of this mood atmosphere is the potential to balance between daring and risky ambitions and those of a more controlled and calculated nature. Both may be apparent, though some will definitely be tempted into a gamble of choices in a mood period that will not be lacking in color and variety.

Alert is 7.5. Moon 64 % illuminated.
