Art by Element Octothorpe
This new moon initiates a cycle of curiosity and exploration fused with wisdom and contemplation. It is quite likely that we'll find ourselves insatiably interested in consuming information, but we should also beware of a tendency to take on more than is sustainable or healthy at this time.
The intentions we set with this lunation should be designed to work well with recent innovations in the development of healthy boundaries and personal discipline for the benefit of the collective.
With Mercury conjunct a retrograde Venus, we'll be reconsidering with whom and what we desire to connect, eventually choosing one over the other. However, this need for reassessment conflicts with a tendency to mistake our dreams (or our worst nightmares) for reality when it comes to what we believe is worth our commitment. Finding the truth of the matter is likely to require either further research or the passage of time. Once again, this is a time to set goals that can adapt to whatever the future may bring.
