Today, in short
Morning06:40
The Moon in an easy aspect with a planet: things go smoothly. Take on the task you have not dared to touch.
Afternoon15:53
A planet turns direct: what was stuck starts moving, but it takes a few days to pick up speed.
Eveningafter 18:00
A quiet sky this evening: whatever you agree on now will hold.
Worth doing
Start the thing you keep putting off.
Moon in Capricorn: a businesslike mood, what matters is what got done, not what you felt, harder on yourself than on others.
Finish one thing and tidy up after it.
The Moon squares or opposes Saturn: everything looks worse than it is for a couple of hours.
Buy the boring thing you actually need.
The Moon is waxing: what you start now is easier to finish.
Better left
Having it out with anyone.
Venus is retrograde: old feelings come back, new purchases disappoint.
Starting the difficult conversation.
Mercury is retrograde: messages get lost, appointments get mixed up.
Cutting the travel time thin.
The Moon squares or opposes an outer planet: moods swing, yesterday's plans look silly.
Lunar day
5A unicorn
Obligations come back round. What you took on, you carry.
Favourable: A journey. Paying back a debt that hangs.
Avoid: Making one more promise today.
Approximate: counted from midnight in your time zone.
Universal day
7A day of quiet
The date does not take bustle well: the unclear clears up when no one is around.
Advice: Spend an hour with no people and no screens.
One number for everyone: it describes the date, not you.
Void of course
None today
Between its last exact aspect and the change of sign the Moon settles nothing. A pause, not a bad hour.

The degree is where a body stands on the ecliptic at noon. ℞ means it is moving backwards through the zodiac.
The month, day by day
Every day of the month: the Moon's sign, the lunar day, the four phases and the hours the Moon is void of course.

Mercury
Current period —
Three weeks of Mercury moving backwards: messages go astray, meetings get muddled, agreements need confirming again.
Reread the message. Ask again what time the meeting is.
Venus
Current period —
Six weeks of Venus moving backwards: people you had parted from come back, and a big purchase stops pleasing you within days.
Finish the old conversation. Put the purchase off.
Mars
Next period —
Two months of Mars moving backwards: work stalls, and pushing harder produces irritation instead of results.
Finish what is started. Open nothing new for now.
Jupiter
Next period —
Four months of Jupiter moving backwards: the growth you counted on is postponed, and what you took on costs more than it looked.
Add up what the thing you already started costs.
Saturn
Current period —
Four and a half months of Saturn moving backwards: what you promised long ago and never did comes back, and your deadlines move.
Look again at one old obligation. Drop it if it is spent.
