Moon’s first quarter in Taurus
Today, we approach the first Moon quarter, which is represented in astrology by what is called a “square aspect”. It has the reputation to produce a dissonance between the combined energies of any two astral bodies. The Moon in Taurus square Sun in Aquarius will make the natives of these two signs more electric, emotive and vulnerable. The fact that Jupiter intervenes by conjunction with the Sun, increases the solar intensity and, by extension, that of the conflict aspect with the Moon. What will dominate today and tomorrow in the behavior of Taurus and Aquarius, and at a lesser degree Scorpio and Leo, will be a tendency to exaggerate problems or to show too much enthusiasm leading to errors of judgments and other blunders…
Tomorrow Tuesday, some disturbances will occur on the physiological level too. When the Moon forms a square with the Chiron/Neptune conjunction, health disorders resulting from hormonal imbalances and incidents in connections with the respiratory system or the nervous system, could occur. Anyone weakened by an illness will be more particularly concerned.
Weather wise, the energy of the squares Sun/Moon and Moon/Neptune in particular, will express its power. The climate of our planet is currently under pressure because of the transit of Jupiter and Neptune in Aquarius. The Moon will have a detonator effect and, as I write these lines, a cyclone hits the North-eastern coasts of Australia, in the state of Queensland, around Cairns. Torrential rain is likely to produce flash floods…
At the same time, the transit of the Moon will have positive effects in other aspects of our life. These will be noticed through an increase in our capacity of regeneration and our aptitude to fight and win or solve problems. Tomorrow, we will have a greater urge to communicate and share ideas and actions. There will be more effective groups some and will seek to collaborate with those which surround us. There will be exceptions, of course; some of us will make it hard for others, disturbing the good atmosphere by becoming a nuisance, but overall, even if we are not all 100%, we will not show our worries not to bother our entourage.
The luckiest of all signs of the zodiac will certainly be the natives of Capricorn and secondarily of Virgo. If they use the energy intelligently to make an important step or to try their luck, they will find that they are or much more efficient in some important area of their life.
These brief explanations are intended to show you how the Moon progressively influences the rest of the zodiac as it revolves around the Earth. Its energy is often a detonator to other influences already in place and only waiting for an opportunity to show their strength. When the Moon passes over a significant point around a chart, it lights a wick, if I may say, and a few hours or sometimes a few days later, the explosive charge goes off. If it often results in events that don’t attract our attention because they don’t concern us directly (…) it occasionally implies us much more personally. That’s why it is important to monitor the movements of the planets. Whether we recognize them or not, whether we want to know about them or not, their presence around the Sun affects us permanently… One day, when science decides to investigate these phenomena, a great step will be taken to help humanity and to improve life on our planet in an exceptional way. Currently, refusing to understand or admit the influence of the planets (apart from that of the Moon on agriculture and tides) those who “don’t believe in it” are victims and not true actors of their life. Someday, in ten thousand years, perhaps, it will all be different. But for now, we’re still in the dark and, despite technical and scientific progress; many people’s minds still function like they did in the Middle Age!
