Astro-logical Forecast for Monday 5/6/2013: Get Up & Go

Get up, get out, get moving. Driving the energy of the day is the Moon in me-me-me Aries, a sign that falls down stairs because it’s faster than walking. In a perfect world, Aries shines as an inspiring, courageous pioneer. Otherwise, Aries can be pushy, impatient and dangerously self-absorbed, like a newborn fascinated by its fingers and toes. As we approach the time span of 5PM -6:30PM ET, be aware of the potential for a jolt, revelation or power play as the Moon makes its weekly meet-up with the disruptive Uranus-Pluto square.

Meanwhile, persistent, persuasive and deep communication are suggested during the next 36 hours, as Mercury in stubborn Taurus is aspected by investigative Pluto and willful Mars — exact on Tuesday. More dirt, news from underground and a clash of wills, I’ll wager.

Your Moon voids for the week: Tuesday 8:40AM ET until 6:09AM ET on Wednesday; Thursday 8:28 PM ET until 5:21PM ET on Friday.  Moon voids are natural rest periods which are well-suited for aimless wandering and chilling. Get it off your desk today or ship it on Wednesday; consider starting the weekend a day early. As for right this minute — onward!
