The moon is in Libra today, the zodiac sign of peace and balance—but that doesn’t mean we won’t get heated about things! The moon squares off with fiery Mars, currently in Cancer, at 5:10 PM. Like Libra, Cancer prefers to approach things kindly and delicately, but if we can’t tap into our decisive, straightforward side when we feel upset, we run the risk of coming off as passive aggressive, confusing, or indirect, and we might also feel unheard or misunderstood. Tempers may be short today. It’s important to remember that anger is a normal emotion we all experience, and pretending it doesn’t exist actually doesn’t serve us at all: It’s best to find healthy ways to sit with and express it!
