At 5:53 a.m.: The moon is sextile Chiron

In the morning, the Gemini moon sextiles Chiron in Aries, stimulating emotional healing. Conversations with friends or even a passing stranger can prove illuminating. We may read news or hear a song or ad on the radio that clarifies how to proceed with a persistent dilemma. Insecurities and anxieties over which choices to make are calmed by these messages, which seem to be intended just for us. The sextile stimulates organic revelations. We won’t have to go out of our way to receive them, but we should aim to be as present as possible to use this influence to its greatest potential. Once we have guidance in hand, we can use it to assist others in clearing their own self-imposed hurdles.

At 9:57 a.m.: The moon is trine Saturn

Mid-morning, the moon creates a trine to Saturn in Aquarius, granting us authority. As a result of the insights gleaned during the moon-Chiron sextile, we can offer advice and support to those in need. Our capacity to act as both a leader and a provider means we hold space for others in a critical way. This is a good time to reflect on tradition, as well as on the education which we have received from past teachers. We are in the process of taking up a similar mantle, and it is important to consider our place in our ongoing chain of history, lineage, and values.
