Tuesday, 27 August 2019: Moon Opposed Pluto, Moon enters Leo

The Moon is in its balsamic phase, the final days of letting go of the lessons of this lunar cycle and preparing for the start of the next. Early in the day, the Moon in Cancer opposes Pluto in Capricorn. We may feel the instinctual charge of fight or flight in the face of power or intense circumstances. Pluto demands transformation, and it could be easy to feel overwhelmed or buried by this demand. But the Moon in Cancer is strong, connected to the wellspring of life and the deep intuition and wisdom of the body. Soothe your system and allow your body to show you both the places that are indeed in need of transformation as well as those places where meaningful change is already taking place. Tonight, the Moon moves into Leo where it is ruled by the Sun in Virgo. As the Moon moves through its final phase, what do you need to surrender? Offer it to the fire and the earth.
