Astro Daily: September 3, 2020

Coming off the Pisces Full Moon, emotions may still be running high. We were asked to find empathy and understanding, to feel ourselves in the experiences of others. Whatever suffering we’ve been holding onto can be let go, healed, and redeemed.

Mercury in Virgo also squares the Lunar Nodes today, a reminder that we’re coming up to the midpoint between the eclipses. Anytime something squares the Nodes there’s a sense of fate and destiny or events that feel charged in some way. Mercury square the nodes means that information ideas, and choices may send us in a new direction, one that feels fated or destined in some way.

That said, the Moon rounds its way out of Pisces before entering Aries later today. (Missed my full moon report, read Pisces Full Moon: Practical Magic.) Pisces and Aries are two signs that feel quite different from each other as we move from element water to element fire, from the end of the zodiac to the beginning of the zodiac.

An Aries Moon can be dynamic, action oriented, and in need of movement. It can also be a little hot tempered. And with Mars getting ready to turn retrograde on September 9, the next few days may be a little aggressive and angry. Give Mars a positive outlet through physical exercise and competition.
