I am working hard on the Weekly Forecast, but I wanted to give you a sneak peek by sharing Monday’s forecast with you now! In the future, the Weekly Forecast will come out on Mondays and cover Tuesday—the Next Monday so that you will have a forecast for a Full Week ahead of time!
Until later this afternoon,

The Moon
On Monday, the Moon will be in Aquarius all day, so there is the tendency to be detached emotionally but still social, intellectual, and rational. I like to think of the Aquarius Moon kind of like Captain Spock from Star Trek—“But Jim, that’s not logical.” Everything needs to make logical and rational sense on Monday and you may find yourself and others coming from this mental space.
Aquarius is also a fixed sign meaning that it has the capacity to execute endurance when required. Steady repetition comes easily when the Moon is in a fixed sign. I like to think of the modes in astrology like riding a bicycle—the signs in the cardinal mode get you going, the signs in a fixed mode keep the pedals pumping, and the signs in the mutable mode apply the breaks and get you ready to get off the bike and do something else. With any fixed sign, the motto is: “Slow and steady wins the race.” With Aquarius, we are dealing with applying our mental intelligence to problems within our communities, our environments, and our relationships, and we are able to analyze the data sets with ease and detached, objective truth. There is a real emotional stability in the Aquarius Moon energy that as a Pisces moon native, I highly admire!
The Transits
A hidden conjunction called an antiscia between Venus and Chiron perfected on Sunday night so there could be some underlying emotional things that are sort of playing in the background on Monday. Maybe there are some areas in life where you are feeling vulnerable or wounded and they may have a lot to do with either Venusian topics like love and money, or Chiron topics, like sacrifice and healing. So, be aware of this going on in the background on Monday and into Tuesday.
The Sun enters Scorpio at 12:20 p.m. Scorpio is a purifying, focused, driven, and emotionally intense sign that embodies the character traits of being ambitious, persistent, determined, and magnetic. Now that the Sun is in this sign, the next month will be focused on the depth of feelings, thoughts, and actions. We are now in the underworld and nature is starting to decay, the leaves are starting to rot, and we are in the falliest of fall. Intense colors of Mars and of blood surround us: reds, oranges, yellows, browns, and blacks.
In the afternoon on Monday, the Moon in Aquarius will perfect a square to Uranus in Taurus retrograde at 3:04 pm symbolizing a sudden unexpected thing that may happen that sends you on a little tailspin. Could involve technology, could involve science; could involve your family, but it is unpredictable, electric, and shocking energy.

At 1:15pm Pacific time, my cat, Jasmine, got to explore outside the van. At 3:00 pm, she was still out there, and not visible or answering my calls. This fits the Uranus transit you mentioned. By 3:15 pm, fortunately, she came out of the crunchy leaves, and jumped back in the van. What a relief!!!

So glad she came back! That Uranus can really throw us some curveballs!
