8/21/22 ✨ Mercury Opposite Neptune
✨ Happy SUN Day!
SUN IN LEO | MOON IN GEMINI
AFFIRMATION OF THE DAY: I allow my creativity to leas the way.
🪐 MAJOR TRANSITS:
♍️ MERCURY OPPOSITE ♓️ NEPTUNE rx (24º) 12:40 AM PT
Our perception is clouded when Mercury in Virgo opposes Neptune in Pisces. Both planets are in their home signs, strengthening their influence, but as they face off against each other, it will be hard to tell fact from fiction. Communication could get blurry and we could leave conversations with more questions than answers. Rather than try to clarify every little detail, use this transit to your advantage by leaning into creative endeavors. Use blurry boundaries to your advantage by letting communication flow from your subconscious. Creative writing, painting, singing, or even acting are all favored under this opposition.

THE MOON:
🌗 WANING CRESCENT MOON IN GEMINI ♊️
The waning moon in Gemini asks us to release through communication. Writing and speaking can help us clear emotions. A journal practice is especially powerful under this lunation. Talking to trusted friends and family can also feel cathartic. Our feelings are processed through out mental mind now.
♊️ MOON SQUARE ♍️ MERCURY AND ♓️ NEPTUNE rx (24º) 6:00 AM PT
The moon comes into a T-square with Mercury and Neptune on Sunday morning, making our emotions the focal point of the day. Rather than trying to sort them our rationally, processing through creative endeavors is aligned now. Let feelings lead the way in any writing, speaking, or creating. This could feel like a confusing battle between our mental mind and our emotional body. Now is not the time for clarity, but rather, release.
♊️ MOON SEXTILE ♌️ SUN (28º) 2:00 PM PT
We’ll feel confident in how we’re expressing ourselves this Sunday afternoon as the moon and sun lock into a supportive sextile. This is a moment of vitality and conscious awareness. Realizations are possible just by showing up and being willing to share how we’re feeling.
VOID MOON FROM 2:00 PM - 5:30 PM PT
The moon is void for a few hours Sunday afternoon, bringing and opportunity for rest. Take a chill pill. Tie up any loose ends before another week begins.
🌘 WANING CRESCENT MOON ➡️ CANCER ♋️ (5:29 PM PT)
The waning moon enters Cancer on Sunday evening, asking us to clear out our home and make space to start Virgo season with a clean slate. Comfort and clarity go hand-and-hand in the coming days. Getting cozy in our environment could involve a bit of purging- physically and emotionally.
✨ TSJ’S TAKEAWAY:
Confusion or creativity? You get to choose today. Mercury opposes Neptune, clouding our understanding. This isn’t the time to fine tune details or search for clarity, but rather, play into the fogginess by tapping into your artistic expression. Allow your subconscious mind to take over through dance, painting, singing, or even just being silly. The moon forms a T-square to this potent opposition, making our emotions the focal point. Even with the moon in intellectual Gemini, we can gain greater understanding by letting our feelings lead the way. The moon gets a supportive boost from the sun this afternoon, giving us energy and confidence to express ourselves. A void moon in the early evening begins slowing the pace before la luna makes her homecoming into Cancer. Under the waning moon, this is a time to get comfortable in your home and clear out any clutter ahead of Virgo season (which starts tomorrow!!)
