Moon in Libra

enters the Via Combusta (possible loss of morale or inner confusion until early Wednesday when, also, Mercury will turn direct) at 5:07p PT | 8:07p ET | 1:07a(M) UT

Definition is a key. The moon's aspects are bringing out the force of the long-lasting square between Uranus and Pluto (from Aries to Capricorn). This is a force for goals and untiring resolve. Reinhold Ebertin says it can mean "fanatic striving for transformation" and I have seen this in myself and others. No one would believe the time I have spent in astrological research in recent months. To an outsider it would look like a "fanatic"s waste of time; to me it is a struggle to transform the daily astrology I have been working at since about the age of 10 into something better and better. I see it in a friend: He has set himself free from alcoholism and is now setting out on a bold new career path. "Transformation" is the right word. How is that going for you?

I suggested that it is being defined now because also Mercury remains in a sextile with Saturn while "Hermes" will be slowing down, then stationary, then turning direct next Wednesday. This is good for clarity in goals and in communicating that clarity to others when necessary. 

"Indefatigable" is another word for the Uranus-Pluto square. This may be evident today in happy ways because of the accompanying sextile of the moon and Jupiter continuing into late evening. That can be good for camaraderie.

The old tortoise, enduring and contented, makes his way

To a hollow tree covered with moss. Two females of his

Species lurk in its shade. This is interesting! He wants

Both. Old romance resurges while he trusts in Providence.

A mirror reflecting the sun reflects her reflection of

Wise ones she emulates. Paths which go in circles

Intrigue her offspring, who merrily get lost. She is

Watchful for any dangers in their way. Strong mama.

A labyrinth contains clues and counter-clues, 

So that its traverser has to make his own rules,

Laws, mandates. At times he tires, lies down,

Luxuriates, gets fat. Then up again for progress.
