With both Mars and the Sun in Scorpio, today is a day of determination and intensity. Scorpio brings passion, desire, and determination which will assist in helping you focus on your goals and provide you with the determination and resourcefulness needed to overcome challenges. Your intuition and instincts may be heightened, making this a favorable time for delving into deep-seated issues or pursuing important change.

Mars and the Sun form a trine aspect to Neptune bringing a dose of mysticism and spirituality to the day. Neptune is associated with dreams, imagination, and a connection to the ethereal. This alignment may make it easier to tap into your intuition and engage in creative or spiritual pursuits. Open yourself to a sense of inspiration allowing a deeper connection to the deeper levels of yourself and your connection to others.

The Moon in Capricorn today adds a practical and disciplined approach to your emotions. Capricorn energy encourages you to focus on your responsibilities and long-term goals, adding a layer of structure and determination to your emotional responses.

In the early morning hours, Mars forms a conjunction with the Sun, both in Scorpio. Find the house in your natal chart that holds Scorpio. This will tell you the area of your life that will be imbued with potency and passion. This is the start of a year-long cycle of taking action in this area of your life. What needs to begin here?

The Sun and Mars both being in Scorpio create a highly potent and passionate atmosphere. This conjunction amplifies the qualities of Scorpio, including determination, ambition, and intensity. You’ll feel a surge of energy and assertiveness, making it an ideal time to tackle challenges and assert your desires. However, the intensity of this alignment can also bring forth strong emotions, so it’s important to channel this energy constructively and avoid unnecessary power struggles.

The Moon enters Aquarius at 6:28 AM EST, offering a contrasting influence to the passion of the Sun and Mars conjunction. This allows a more detached and intellectual perspective. Aquarius is the fixed air sign associated with innovation and a need for individuality. Even in the midst of the intense Scorpio energy today the Aquarius Moon will help you maintain a rational and objective outlook.

The Moon continues its travels through Aquarius today bringing with it the need for intellectual stimulation as well as a desire for freedom and independence. You may be interested in joining with like-minded folks to explore intellectual solutions to problems in the social fabric of our communities and culture. Stay open for innovative, open-minded, and often unusual perspectives on what impacts all of humanity and beyond. Look for intellectual stimulation, unconventional solutions, and a sense of belonging to a larger community.

At 5:53 PM EST, the Moon forms a challenging square aspect to Uranus. Because Uranus is the co-ruler of Aquarius, this amplifies the already strong Aquarian energy. Uranus is the planet of surprises and sudden change, and when it forms a square with the Moon, it can lead to unexpected emotional responses and events. This aspect often encourages a break from routine and a strong desire for personal freedom.

You may feel a sense of restlessness and a need to break away from constraints. It’s important to stay flexible and open to change, as this square aspect may result in abrupt developments that require adaptation. Look for opportunities for intellectual innovation and be ready to share your most unique ideas and qualities.
