Well, everyone seems to have managed yesterday fairly well, keeping the inner control freak in check. Let’s see if we can make it two in a row. Today offers the go and do it energy of the Virgo Moon being sextile Mars while being in opposition to Neptune retrograde early in the afternoon. This confluence makes this an ideal day to act on one’s impulses, which can be a good thing, but Neptune being as it is, this can result in going forward with some harebrained schemes. Deciding to go forward with one’s plans to market a hand knitted cozy for ice cream cones is not a good idea, people. By all means, keep up the good work, but let it amount to something. At least one’s magicks can be put to most any positive work.
