Friday, October 9th, and the moon is right behind the sun. It's the day before the new moon. The moon and the sun are both together today in Virgo. They're both in the nakshatra, sun and moon, and this is where the new moon is going to take place in Hasta. Hasta is the hand. It takes charge, takes grasp of things. So this means this is a great day for taking grasp of new ideas. But what I really want you to know about this is Venus and Mercury are in the 2nd house from the Moon and the Sun. This means this is a good day for planning financial affairs. When planets are behind the Sun or the Moon in particular, it's a dark moon. It's not the time to start new things. It's the time to finish up what you've already begun. And you will find though that today There'll be more people coming around, friendships friendlier. It is a good day financially. Now the Moon is going to be opposed Saturn, so it's kind of a day of serious work. Mercury is exactly in a quincunx to Saturn. Now you know how I feel about that 6-8, 8-6 relationship, the quincunx. It means things are not coming together like they should.
