The moon enters Aries today.

It’s a busy day for communication planet Mercury, as it connects with action planet Mars at 2:38 AM and squares off with Saturn, the planet of obstacles and limitations, at 4:50 AM: We’re eager to discuss things, but will we be heard? There’s a grumpy, pessimistic mood in the air. It’s a decent time to focus on your work, but if you’re trying to get someone to see things your way, you'd be better off trying to get them on your side another day. The moon enters fire sign Aries at 6:24 AM, encouraging us to stay strong and be bold.
