The Day May Start Out Windy, but Tonight is Calm. Moon in Capricorn & the II of Pentacles—Reversed
Daily Horoscope for Tuesday, February 6, 2024
Good afternoon, friends!
The Weekly Forecast is up and so is the video read aloud on YouTube. I forgot to post that earlier, LOL, but it is up now!
We are having a lovely little convo over on the Substack chat so if you aren’t receiving notifications for that and would like to join in, please check your settings. I look forward to getting to know you in the Substack chat realm!
Okay, let’s get into…the astrology
Today the Moon moved into Capricorn this morning at 7:08 am ET. The Moon in Capricorn is goal-oriented, practical, and conservative. The Moon is said to be in her detriment in Capricorn because it is the opposite sign to her home of Cancer and Capricorn, being a winter sign, is cold, dark, and a bit melancholic. The Capricorn Moon can have a sense of humor though, albeit a bit snarky, but still funny…well, to me anyway!
Today actually looks like a pretty good day! Venus has already squared the Nodes as of this newsletter, but she is still within range and so we may be noticing that archetype today and over the next few days. Venus square the Nodes as I said in the Weekly Forecast could be indicative of an event that affects your love life, your relationships, and possibly your finances or things you find valuable. Venus is at the southern bending so this event will most likely be something private or personal.
The next aspect that the Moon in Capricorn will be making is a sesquiquadrate to Uranus in Taurus and this could indicate things getting a bit away from you, routine-wise, today that sort of disrupts your normal rhythm a bit, but don’t worry, it’s a minor delay that will clear relatively quickly. Just pick yourself up and get back in the game wherever you’re at. As the FlyLady says, “You are not behind! I don’t want you to try to catch up; I just want you to jump in where we are. O.K.?” (FlyLady emails, n.d.) That’s the sentiment of this transit. If something happens that throws your day off, it’s alright, just jump back into it!
Later this evening the Sun in Aquarius will form positive aspects to the nodes and this transit will most likely fly right by unnoticed as it’s like driving on an empty freeway, sailing on a calm sea, or floating down a river in a raft with ease—it’s so easy, you hardly notice.
The Moon tonight will also make a couple of harmonious aspects, the first is a sextile to Saturn in Pisces at 7:18 pm ET and the second is a trine to Jupiter in Taurus at 8:40 pm ET. This is super nice and supportive.
The Moon in a sextile to Saturn is like opening a jar with ease, nothing is stuck, you don’t need to ask for any strong person’s help, you just pick up the jar and with a twist of the wrist, it opens! Nice! It could also represent having pleasant experiences with someone older and wiser than yourself. Or it’s like going to work and getting all the things on your to-do list done and the boss telling you “Thanks!” Your committed effort today gets a pat on the back, a high five, or a thumbs up from someone in authority, a parent, or the old guy on the corner, and it feels good.
The Moon in a harmonious trine to Jupiter is even better than a sextile to Saturn, but it’s not a competition. This aspect can feel really good in that you may notice some aid, blessings, or beneficial energy coming your way. You may be the receiver of compliments, encouragement, and smiles. People around you, especially family, seem to be getting along, working together, and having a good time! Love this!
Let’s see what the cards have to say…
What is the guidance for the day?
II of Pentacles—Reversed
On this card, we see a man, juggling two pentacles that are linked by the infinity symbol. In the background, there is a ship, its sail, full of the winds of change, as it stays afloat on the choppy sea. Birds fly in the gales and two feathers grace the man’s cap.
The II of Pentacles is about juggling all of your priorities and when it is reversed it can feel like we are dropping balls left and right. Pentacles have to do with material resources, especially money. So, this card could mean that not only are you trying to manage all of the things going on in your life that you have to do, but you are also trying to manage your finances. In the reversed position this is a sign that something may be amiss and you may need to go back over those accounts or pick up a side gig to make ends meet. With Venus squaring the nodes today and the balsamic moon phase starting which is ending the lunar cycle that started in Capricorn this could very well be about balancing your love life with your work/career/school life, or balancing your income with your expenses.
Do you feel like things are off balance today? Or overwhelming?
Thinking about the flow of transits and how we end our day with such harmony between the Moon, Saturn, and Jupiter, I would think that maybe this afternoon could be a bit challenging, but then by the evening things settle down into a nice smooth flow.
I would love to hear your reflections in the comments!
I hope this is helpful!
Until tomorrow,
