The Moon in Aquarius conjunct Mars in Pisces at 8:51 PM EDT. Lunar aspects have an 'orb of influence' of 12 to 14 hours 'before' and 'after' their exactness.

Today there are two (2) aspects present as the Moon sextile the Sun and conjuncts Mars.

The Moon sextile the Sun occurs late in the day, but YAY FOR US, the 'orb of influence' is 12 to 14 hours before and after exactness, so we will feel this energy approaching earlier in the day. That's the 'prodrome', which is the early symptom of the energy to come. That is your intuition. Applying degrees means approaching degrees, which is your intuition. Look at your Natal Chart or Solar Return because all of those aspects that are applying (approaching) are significant indicators of your intuition. Whether you use it or not is another story.

The Moon sextile the Sun carries power and courage. Think of this aspect as 'solar powered' since the Sun is present. Remember, everything grows toward the Sun. Notice how plants and trees will bend and grow toward the Sun. This is a perfect time to take advantage of a leg up, meaning something that gives you a lift and helps you grow either personally or professionally. Look for the the lift and you will see it. Sextiles and trines are always the lines of least resistance. Why people do not take advantage of them or use them is quite frankly . . . beyond me.

Some of you might remember, back in the day I use to constantly encourage astrotators to call if there was a question about their chart. Even when I used to do 'Transits and Progression Reports' I used to instruct astrotators to call so we could talk about it for 10 minutes or so. A friend asked how I was able to accept calls and put it out there like that. I said because I can pretty much count on no one calling. People generally do not take advantage of opportunities like that because it requires them to grow and change. Growth and change can be scary, so they don't call. It's just the way people are and they will say, "I didn't want to bother you." I would pretty much shrug and think, "Okay. It's your Life. I do not force anything on anyone, including astrology.

Folks, trines and sextiles are like that. They are pretty much 'growth', which brings about change by default. By the way, I do not encourage calls 'on the fly' like that anymore simply because I have filled in my time with teaching yoga and my yoga website, so now pretty much all calls are scheduled as phone readings now. But that is the perfect example of missed opportunities. I just figure the Universe did not want me to give my time away (like that) so now I don't. AND THAT my dear astrotators is a perfect example of a South Node Pisces giving too much and being over-benevolent. The Universe would not let me do it or allow it to happen. Wild huh? Still, on your end, when you have sextiles or trines in your chart, TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THEM!

The Moon conjunct Mars is also a power up type of aspect. Mars is power in and of itself. Mars is assertion and aggression. Mars is look for action and may even instigate a fight, hard-core debate or argument. The Moon rules our emotions, feelings, moods and sensitivities, which means this aspect creates an impulsive and emotional person who is not very sensitive or aware of others feelings. Well that's rotten!

Since you know this ahead of time, then make certain you are well-aware of your power because there are no take-backs with this aspect. Once the jury has heard it, you can't take it back. The jury being the one judging you after you say what you thought you needed to say. And no, it didn't sound like a Good idea at the time, you know better and will know better. Whether you follow-through with those words, or that comment, or that post is up to you. The aspect is the prime example of emotional outbursts.

Certainly this aspect can be channeled better and hopefully it will be, especially if there is a strong Saturn or Mercury influence in the vicinity to keep you on the right path. This aspect can even turn violent if you don't yank on your Saturn or maybe a Capricorn placement in your chart. The Moon conjunct Mars can make you blind to reason and just downright childish back-talk. Being reasonable is a Mercury trait and being cautious is a Saturn trait.
