This should be a much more forward looking day than was the case yesterday. Following the early morning eclipse, the Aries Moon is trine Mars and Jupiter, which should set the tone for swift decisions and actions, all of which should bring a note of admiration, which is followed in the afternoon Mars is trine Jupiter, which should goad us all on to achieve even more. The path should be equally clear to engage in most any magickal work, especially that which contributes to one’s material comfort.
