We are entering the deepest, darkest phase of the Moon. We may feel as though our mind is flooded with feelings. It’s actually because our minds have spent too much time over-thinking things - to the point that now the messages are blurred, leaving us feeling uncertain about the future. Watch what you are saying and doing as your unconscious behavior will reveal your underlying motivations. Moon is still in sensitive Cancer – put yourself in the other person’s shoes before speaking your mind.It is however considered a deeply magical time for tuning into your feelings and intuition. Use the next few days to detach from stressful situations and just surrender to your innermost stillness. Yes I know it’s hard, it’s so much easier to sit and stress rather… but try – you will feel a lot better. This period is known as the Balsamic phase of the Moon, when the Moon is at her darkest, tapping into our deep, dark places.
Assertive, aggressive Mars is fueling our need to defend ourselves. He’s red, hot and ready to go… but… he runs into cold, sobering Saturn who is as cold as he is hot. You could find yourself acting rather rashly instead of thinking about your actions first. Take the next few days to think about it rather. You can accomplish quiet a lot with the energy at the moment as you can focus upon your actions. This aspect is exact tomorrow, but we are already feeling its effect.
What you didn’t see before, you’ll see quite clearly over the next few days. You might be faced with some hard nosed decisions but you will realize it was the right thing to do around the time of the New moon.
