Daily Horoscope: Moon in Aries, October 18, 2021

Moon in Aries, Monday, October 18, sets off three days of intense self assertive energy as the moon in the cardinal fire sign that says “I am” begins moving toward an opposition to the sun in Libra for a Full Moon on Wednesday which highlights your role in all kinds of relationships. Today Mercury retrograde in the relationship minded sign of Libra will station direct at 11:07 a.m. Eastern Time, with the moon conjunct Chiron in Aries opposing Mercury. Expect challenges in communication or transportation to flare and require immediate attention and response. The moon and Chiron trine to Venus in Sagittarius and sextile to Saturn in Aquarius helps you to be spontaneously flexible and intelligently inventive in response to challenges, but the square between the sun conjunct Mars in Libra and Pluto in Capricorn sets a tone of perversity, power struggles, rage or hatred. The real work of the day is in utilizing these three aspects: Venus quincunx Uranus, sun/Mars quincunx Neptune, and Mercury quincunx Uranus, to cajole and persuade others that changes, sacrifices, or concessions are better than defending a stance just to be obstructive. You will have an easier day if you understand that the moon and Chiron opposing Mercury is pushing everybody’s buttons now. Too many things are going on at once, the moon is almost full, and even the nicest people may act selfish or irritable. Aries energy seems to make time, people, and cars move faster, which can lead to basic needs being overlooked. Eat healthy food, drink plenty of water, and avoid excess caffeine or you may experience headaches, because Aries rules the head. Check the gas, oil, and water in you car, and your tickets or appointments, before you rush around today – don’t make it easy for a stressed Mercury to catch you off guard.
