Go Full Throttle
You’ll be rarin’ to go on MONDAY, when the Sagittarius Moon is fueled by a super-charged alignment between the bold Sun and ambitious Saturn. You’ll also have collaborative Venus and fortuitous Jupiter on your team. This propulsive thrust of energy not only stokes optimism, confidence and the belief you can achieve anything you put your mind to, but it may even present exciting opportunities to pursue. Dream big! Do not sell yourself short. This is the time to be brazen, brash and bold. With the Moon waxing in strength, you’ve got a green light to exploit this surge of pluck to propel a dream project forward or launch an exciting new initiative.

Get Crackin’
TUESDAY starts with an early Void Moon, which can cause delays and schedule changes. If you plan to VOTE during the Void, make sure to give yourself plenty of time, as it will likely take a lot longer than you thought. (Read all about the dos and don’ts of the Void Moon here.) At 10:17a, the Moon enters can-do Capricorn and augers the start of a three-day productivity party!
While there may be some discord to contend with TUESDAY morning, due to a challenging aspect from an antagonistic Mars, we’ll have another day of solid support from industrious Saturn. Draw on the ringed planet’s discipline to stay focused on achieving your goals, and you won’t get distracted by any turf wars and ego trips the red planet may incite.
This boon of industry continues on WEDNESDAY. Not only does the Capricorn Moon still have the benefit of a hard-working Saturn, but it also gets a big boost from an invigorating Sun. Together they’ll empower you to bulldoze through any obstacles and go full bore toward achieving your objectives. If you’ve been having a hard time meeting a goal, this dogged intensity will help you drive it across the finish line. The time is ripe to launch fresh ventures, ideas, even relationships.
The Capricorn Moon persists through THURSDAY. Yes, this all-business Moon tends toward the traditional, but galvanizing aspects from unorthodox Uranus, visionary Neptune and potent Pluto, challenge that outlook and empower you to break with convention and hatch your brilliance. If you’ve reached an impasse on a project, you’re now inspired to think outside the box. At 5:38p, the Moon clocks out and goes Void for a well-earned break. Even though the Moon moves into Aquarius, at 8:15p, I suggest you rest on your laurels and call it a day. That’s because a belligerent Mars will be looking for trouble. This would be a good night to enjoy solo pursuits.

Ride the Wave
Count on a high energy day FRIDAY, when the livewire Aquarius Moon gets fired up by a blazing Sun and enlivened by a spirited Mercury. Having this trio of luminaries on the same wavelength indicates that your mind will be crackling with norm-shattering originality and flashes of genius. You’ll also have plenty of daring and confidence to promote and advance your most inspired schemes. And because this dynamic is conducive to fostering an appreciation for fresh perspectives, those schemes should receive a warm reception. Don’t be afraid to experiment!

WEEKEND FORECAST
The forecast for SATURDAY is both sociable and eclectic. A hook up between amorous Venus and enchanting Neptune has the usually cool and aloof Aquarius Moon enthralled. But there’s also a challenge from wildcard Uranus that brings out the more erratic nature of this contrarian Moon and adds a note of uncertainty to the day. There’s also the fact that the Moon zones out and goes Void at 7:23p. Still, if you can be flexible and stay open to surprises, Saturday may be your best date night this week!
Left to its own devises, SUNDAY’s Pisces Moon would allow for a very leisurely day. Mercury and Saturn, however, have other things in mind. Sprightly Mercury will be stimulating this wistful Moon to get together with friends and do something fun, during the day. Make sure to plan something enjoyable, because, come evening, taskmaster Saturn will be nagging you to take care of business and get a jump on the work week.
