Escaping Gloom As The Fog Clears And We Move Ahead

Published: Thu, 11/07/13

We finish out the work week with moon in Capricorn.  Venus and Pluto are conjunct Capricorn, while Capricorn-ruler, Saturn conjuncts the Sun in Scorpio.
 
With all this emphasis on Capricorn, it's safe to say that people are taking things seriously at this time.  Humor, if you can find it, is likely to be self-deprecating.
 
You may feel discouraged at this time. Many have suffered loss that's tangible.  This pain is likely to come home at this time, but luckily, this heaviness won't last.
 
The moon will spend the weekend in Aquarius. This should see people lighten up a bit. If you are struggling, you should know that both Mercury and Neptune turn direct next week. This should help clear the fog and allow people to move ahead with their plans, though I admit that instant progress is probably not in the cards.
 
As for a positive element, with Neptune in it's home sign, Pisces and Jupiter exalted in Cancer, faith is a strong play. Both bodies are well aspected and we can be glad of it.
 
If the planets were poorly aspected, people would be getting tricked or tricking themselves, left and right. Instead, intuition and any guidance from the ethereal is likely to be truly helpful.
 
This energy also inspires compassion. If the gloom is getting to you, try a little kindness to others as this is fairly reliable way to escape the doldrums.If the gloom is not getting to you, I would still try a little kindness, because it does come around.
