There is more tension in the cosmos than usual as a waxing gibbous Moon conjoins with Saturn retrograde under Pisces. This lunar phase is typically more conflict-ridden as it forces us to analyze our life path and continue or adjust accordingly. Paired with the cosmic disciplinarian, Saturn, it’s more likely that the stars are pushing us toward a necessary adjustment in matters of the heart or mind. Unfortunately, a square between this potent conjunction and communicative Mercury will muddy the waters, making the way forward less uncertain. Proceed with caution today, stargazer. Haste is not an antidote for doubt, and doubt does not negate prosperity.
