Good afternoon, friends!

Wow, I am super pooped from the weekend! So…I am dragging ass today, LOL. I mowed my front yard and cleaned my house on Saturday in preparation for friends and family coming over on Sunday. Sunday morning, I woke up early to bake French toast for my kids and yummy oat bars for my hosting treat, and clean some more, and I’m happy to say that the visit went well, but, last night, I was tuckered out from a full day and was falling asleep around 8 pm, like a baby. I was not able to go to sleep when my body wanted me to, though, because I have children who need to be tended to and guided in their nighttime routines and tucked into bed yadda yadda, but after that I went to sleep!

I thought I would wake up refreshed, but here I am sitting at my computer, wishing I were sleeping. How about you? How was your weekend?

Anyway…thankfully, there are not a thousand and one transits to report on today, so we should be able to work our way through the horoscope and card reading with ease.

We do have Mercury making a sextile to Jupiter today, and the Moon forming a YOD between herself, Venus/Neptune, and Pluto retrograde to talk about. I have made a short list, not exhaustive, of seven ways in which this YOD may manifest. I hope you find them helpful.

Okay, let’s get into….the astrology

(all times are in Eastern time unless mentioned otherwise)

Today is a transition day when the Moon exits one sign and enters another.
