Moon in Libra: Place of Sectmate. The Moon finds moderate support from Venus. Libra Moons are excellent periods for meetings, discussions, research, and conversations that require diplomacy and tact. Conversation, dialogue, and anything which involves the meeting of the minds - especially in the one-on-one context - will be greatly supported during this period.

Triplicity and Quadruplicity: Moveable Air. Movability (cardinality) indicates short and quick bursts of activity that are cut short and not seen through as often. The Moon and our own moods, activities, and attention spans tend to flit from one thing to the next. The air element promotes mental stimulation and any activities which involve communication and language. Air Moons tend to be very chatty and conversational, preferring discussion and the medium of language to anything else.

Moon’s ruler: Superior Sextile to Venus in Sagittarius. There is solid support grounding the Moon’s significations and seeing the activities of this period through to completion. The square from last period has eased into a sextile. Interpersonal harmony is strengthened, and any challenges or issues brought up during this last period have the potential to be resolved now.

Relationship to the Sun: The Moon forms a Superior Movable Square to the Sun in Capricorn. The trine of last period has tensed into a square. This creates great tension and struggles between one’s own needs and desires and what the world around you is expecting of you. Mishaps and roadblocks will arise, keeping you from easily accomplishing your will.

Aspects

• Superior Movable Square to Mercury in Capricorn. Last period’s trine has hardened into a square. This is a tense period for communication and the use of the mind. Ideas and conversation will not flow freely. With the movable nature of this square, problems will arise quickly and suddenly, and fall away just as quickly as they came.

• Movable Opposition to Mars in Aries. Strong propensity for emotional frustration. Anger with people and irritation at circumstances, as well as a strong desire to change and revolutionize the status quo. Dissatisfaction with current circumstances. The movable nature of the opposition will make obstacles arise and leave rapidly and suddenly.

• Sextile to Venus in Sagittarius: Last periods square has eased into a sextile. Interpersonal tensions will be resolved, and challenges created during the last period with other people will come to an end. You will find help and aid coming from other people, and people will, in general, be friendlier with each other.

• Superior Air Trine to Jupiter in Aquarius. This is the beginning of a new aspect sequence. Help and support from authority figures, especially showing up through conversation and dialogue with the airy nature of the trine. Emotional buoyancy, good luck, and a potential for financial opportunities to develop. The airy nature of this trine encourages conversation and the exploration of ideas with others.

• Superior Movable Trine to Saturn in Aquarius. This is the beginning of a new aspect sequence. Hard lessons that come through which effectively push people closer towards maturity and wisdom. Difficult experiences that teach you something profound and ultimately make you thankful for them. Slightly greater propensity for rumination and thought-loops, with the airy nature of the trine.

Summary: You will be able to see your will through this period. If you have things you have been meaning to accomplish and complete, especially related to the cultivation of relationships, group decisions, or any of the activities of the mind, you will be able to make some real headway with them. The Moon forms an aspect to her ruler, and we have strong help from Jupiter and Saturn providing support to the Moon during this time. However, this period won’t be without its own issues - the opposition to Mars and square to both the Sun and Mercury will each create delays and obstacles. While you can finish what you put your mind to, it certainly won’t come easily. Just be patient, and remember that all is coming.
