Today is Thursday, June 23, 2011<\/a><\/strong>. The Moon ingresses Aries for the whole day at 4:24 am EDT, and not long after makes a conjunction to Uranus. This is the first image to emerge for the day of a lot of current running through our interactions. Think of it as plugging your emotions into a light socket, which may light the room beautifully or may short the circuit and light a spark. Aries is a fire sign after all, suggesting some extra heat to this aspect. But the Moon moves quickly, so if you can remember to stop, drop and roll if things flare up early in the day, the afternoon may go a bit smoother.<\/p>\n

The Sun in early Cancer is making a semi-sextile to Mars in Gemini. Gary Caton described this as Mars hanging out in the 12th house of the Sun, which suggests to me that our drive and desires may be fueling our ego\/sense of self seemingly from out of nowhere — kind of like it\u2019s coming through the dreams of our ego-presence, if such a thing could dream. Or perhaps you\u2019ll find that as you present your usual self to others, they seem to be picking up on what you really want, what\u2019s really motivating you even if you\u2019re not sure yourself. With Mars in Mercury-ruled Gemini, you can be sure it\u2019s going to be doing some talking.<\/p>\n

Lastly, we have an opposition between Venus in the middle of Gemini and Pholus conjunct the Great Attractor in mid-Sagittarius. The attractive power of Venus — all that lush femininity, sensuality and receptivity (think voluptuous hips, bee-stung lips and languorous sips of nectar) — is pulling against the attraction of the Great Attractor. Eric has written before of this powerful point and its effect of polarization. It\u2019s an opposite kind of attraction to what Venus offers, and here we have it opposed to the planet named for the goddess of love. Add to that Pholus (\u201csmall cause, big effect\u201d) magnifying the polarizing effect of both the GA and the opposition with Venus. <\/p>\n

If you find yourself getting a bit intoxicated with this sense of polarity, chances are it isn\u2019t going to feel like a happy buzz. In fact, despite the word \u201cattractor\u201d in \u201cGreat Attractor,\u201d you could find yourself pushing people away — or vice versa. Like yesterday, the solution may lie in water, but this time you may need to drink some. Stay hydrated like the Sun in Cancer, and use the time while sipping and gulping to feel your way around any tension, dissolving anything that feels toxic so it can be eliminated. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
