Well pumpkins, it was a good run this week, but today we hit the wall. Things don’t go quite as planned, or don’t go at all. It may be best to let ambition fall by the wayside, and just float in an innertube. With the day starting with the Moon in Opposition Venus, one’s mood is dampened. Then, the Sun squares Saturn, making everthing just too much bother. In the evening, the Moon is in opposition to Jupiter and square Mars, making it difficult to focus and everyone more irritable. This is just not a good day for those driven to get anything accomplished. You can use your magicks to re-direct the general malaise towards others, but it won’t make you feel any better, so it’s probably better to work on diminishing the trash in your own life rather than tossing it over someone else’s fence. So, it’s better to calm and center.
