We can take ourselves too seriously today and don’t want our feelings to get in the way of our chores as the moody Cancer Moon prompts us to keep our emotions quiet. Fortunately, we’re willing to work hard now to get the job done. Meanwhile, cerebral Mercury forms a conflicting square with taskmaster Saturn, testing the validity of our thoughts. Thankfully, our good ideas are strengthened after the Moon prances into lively Leo at 10:08 pm EDT.
