The waxing gibbous Moon directly opposes Makemake, a dwarf planet governing our activist spirit and how we interact with and contribute to the world around us. This small celestial body calls us to consider the ways we can uplift others and, in turn, receive that same support. With the Moon also forming a harmonious trine with Mercury, connection and communication should come easier. Additionally, the Sun continues its equally auspicious trine with Neptune retrograde, expanding the mind and boosting the imagination. Think outside the box to find ways to support your immediate local environment.
