Welcome to another Monday after a weekend which was not, by all indications, the same-old same-old. Here’s to hoping that the quad conjunction New Moon was a rewarding time for all of you. If not transcendental, at the very least gentle in its manifestations. Here’s to hoping that all and each of us have had the opportunity to thank someone for caring about us. Finally, here’s to hoping we each had our piece of chocolate and that none of us overdid it.

As has been the pattern since the lunar nodes transited into Capricorn and Cancer last year, the New Moon is still taking place relatively late in a given sign. This month is no exception, the Sun will ingress Pisces on this coming Thursday or Friday depending on where you are. Today however, the vibe of the Sun-Moon-Neptune-Chiron conjunction is carried forward vividly when the Sun forms a sextile to the galactic center in Sagittarius. There is something sweet and chewy about this aspect.
The collection of rocks, ice cubes and gas balls that orbit the Sun, form our solar system. The Sun, currently in the sign of the collective (Aquarius) is the thing that all these objects have in common. The local collection of stars in this corner of the universe, nearly everything you can see in the night sky, constitute our galaxy. The thing all those stars have in common is the galactic center.
If the New Moon lived up to its potential for you, you may have experienced the combined energies (conjunction) of the your higher self, the Sun, and your feelings the Moon, working to make the implications of the outer planets (longer term trends) more immediate. In addition, the precipitating nature of this lunar event may well have carried over to condensing the foggy nature of our psychic environment (Neptune) allowing us a moment of awareness (Chiron) that will clarify the choices before us.
