Moon in Leo Opposes Pluto & The Knight of Cups
Daily Horoscope Check-In for Tuesday, April 16, 2024
Good morning, friends!
Well, today the Moon is in gregarious, youthful, and fun-loving Leo. She ingressed into Leo last night and then at 2:22 am ET perfected an opposition to Pluto in Aquarius. This is almost the only transit that is perfecting today. The other transit that is becoming exact is the Moon making a sesquiquadrate to Mars in Pisces, indicating that things we’ve set in motion may experience delays today or we may have to put tasks on the back burner for a moment while we tend to more pressing matters.
But, let’s talk more about the Moon in Leo opposing Pluto in Aquarius. Moon opposite Pluto is a standoff energy between what you are feeling or experiencing in your environment and the deeper issues that are bubbling to the surface. Pluto is an excavator, digging up dirt and turning it out for all to see, so when opposed by the Moon in Leo, emotionally we may all be thinking of ourselves and our own dramas and dealing with coming to terms with what is being brought up—this could lead to dramatic outbursts of feeling, and could be stressful. It may also indicate jealousy, control, and/or emotional abuse. Because Pluto is one of the planets that can symbolize death and rebirth, a health crisis may be indicated when he opposes the Moon, but of course, this would be for a small segment of the population and would rely heavily on the interaction that this transit has with one’s natal chart. The Moon represents our bodies, emotions, and circumstances, as well as women, mothers, and family members. She can also symbolize money and our changing fortunes, so this transit could also indicate a transformation around finances that we have to make a decision about.
So—this is the most influential transit of the day. Tomorrow the Moon in Leo will form harmonious trines to Venus and Mercury, and challenging squares to Jupiter and Uranus, but today, this is it.
The Sun is now at 27°Aries, moving closer and closer to his ingress into Taurus which will be on April 19, 2024, just one day before Jupiter and Uranus conjoin on April 20. This means that as the pressure and strength build up toward this big transit, the Sun will add illumination, and vitality to this event, and I almost feel like a light will be turned on as soon as the Sun moves into Taurus, revealing what Jupiter and Uranus have been planning.
Let’s see what the cards have to say…
What is the guidance for today?
