Astrology for Monday, 29 June 2020:

Today the Moon in Libra moves through squares to Pluto and Jupiter in Capricorn—both retrograde and applying to their conjunction with one another. We may be feeling in our bodies the resurgent challenge to affirm new forms of organizing power in the wake of those systems we are rejecting. The Moon then ingresses into Scorpio, the sign of its fall, without reception from Mars in Aries. We may feel heavy, dragged down by the weight of our feelings, especially those deep and vulnerable places inside of ourselves that may have been neglected in our push to hold the weight of the world. We cannot move toward justice in the world while neglecting the harm we hold within ourselves. As Cara Page and Susan Raffo write, “There is nothing we talk about in movement building work that is only an ‘issue.’ These are things we have experienced. Our bodies, our communities, our memories carry all of the times when we experience or witness violence, systemic oppression or displacement, oppression, disrespect, and marginalization … Everything we want to change in the world around us also exists right here in our bodies.” As the Moon comes into a square with Saturn retrograde in Aquarius, we may be stopped in our tracks as the emotional depths living within our bodies demand healing and care in concert with our ongoing pursuit of justice for the collective.
