That day, in short
Morninguntil 12:00
The Moon is void of course the whole time: do routine work, put off decisions and agreements.
Afternoon14:38
The Moon enters a new sign: the head clears, you can go back to the thing you put off.
Evening18:17
The Moon in a tense aspect with an outer planet: the mood changes for no reason. Do not redo your plans over it.
Worth doing
Work the body hard, then rest it.
Moon in Virgo: everyone picks at details, mistakes show at once, easy to turn critical of people.
Finish one thing and tidy up after it.
The Moon is waning: easier to finish things than to start new ones.
Buy the boring thing you actually need.
Better left
Starting the difficult conversation.
Mercury is retrograde and the Moon is in Gemini or Virgo: easy to say the wrong thing. Check the facts before you repeat them.
Having it out with anyone.
Venus is retrograde: old feelings come back, new purchases disappoint.
Cutting the travel time thin.
Mercury is retrograde: messages get lost, appointments get mixed up.
Lunar day
27A trident
The hint arrives from the side, not from reasoning.
Favourable: A walk. Writing down what came to you.
Avoid: Arguing with your own instinct.
Approximate: counted from midnight in your time zone.
Universal day
8A day of counting
The date is about results and money: you see what pays back and what is kept from habit.
Advice: Add up one figure you keep avoiding.
One number for everyone: it describes the date, not you.
Void of course
from yesterday to
Last aspect before it: Moon sextile Mercury
Between its last exact aspect and the change of sign the Moon settles nothing. A pause, not a bad hour.

Exact that day: 3

Moon opposition Neptune
There is less energy than it looks, and sleep comes early.

Moon trine Pluto
You will want to read the worst into what someone said.
- exact at
Moon trine Uranus
The mood jumps, and the reason for it is small.
The time is when the aspect is exact.

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

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.
