Moon in Cancer / Leo

We're still in the Last Quarter phase of the Moon/Sun cycle.  And we are poised to enter the Fall Season which begins officially in the wee hours of Monday morning. 

The Moon this Sunday, September 22, 2019 entered Cancer just after midnight as Saturday rolled over into Sunday.  Cancer is the home sign of the Moon.  Cancer and the Moon rule the emotions. So we can expect folks to be moody and at times crabby.  During the day today Mercury, the news and information guy squares of with Saturn the planet known as the Greater Malefic, which means he does not usually bring about happy results.  Connected to Mercury we could hear some bad news, an aviation or automobile accident,  and even an attempt to prevent news from getting out.  Remember, whatever the news or events, under a Cancer Moon folks will react emotionally.

On Monday the seasonal change takes place as the Sun enters Libra.  A chart erected for that moment reveals clues as to what the season will bring.  Here is a link to the article I wrote about the fall season in Motif Magazine.  http://motifri.com/look-up-the-stars-tell-all-for-the-season-ahead
 This season will bring new efforts to conserve and protect the earth.  We are witnessing it already with the global climate strike.  This season seeds will be planted that will result in new technologies in connection to the environment.

Early Tuesday morning the Moon enters Leo.  The energy shifts, folks want to be appreciated when Moon is in Leo.  This Moon favors leadership, creativity and in general can be quite optimistic.  It is a red letter day as Mercury, the speedy little traveler makes a sweet connection with Jupiter the Greater Benefic.   This aspect favors signing contracts, reaching agreements and making announcements.  Take advantage of this day in any way you can because the energy is favorable.

Wednesday, with the Moon still in Leo  Venus, ruler of love and money, squares off with that bad boy Saturn.  This connection with Saturn reminds us to pay attention to how much we are spending.  Mind the budget Saturn warns.  Venus could care less about the budget, she sees it, likes it, thinks it's pretty and wants it.  In matters of the heart, Venus / Saturn connections can mean a slow start to a relationship and can bring a commitment.  The warning here is that the Saturn person in the relationship might want to put a lid on the Venus person.  Saturn likes to limit, contract and control.  Best to think things through before making that commitment.
