Although the mood of the day is still a bit somber, the heaviness of the earthy Capricorn Moon and Mars is eased today. Impulsive Mars forms a cooperative sextile with dreamy Neptune, luring us to temporarily escape into fantasies. Meanwhile, the complex Scorpio Sun joins retrograde Mercury to turn our thinking inward. Setting aside time for contemplation helps us resolve the tension between Neptune’s intuitive path and Mercury’s need for logic.
