October 7th, and this is a Wednesday, and the Moon is in Leo, and it shifted into Purva Phalguni, the most expressive nakshatra of all. So it is a day of self-expression and creativity because this Venus and Mercury are actually in the 3rd house from the Moon, and the Moon being in Leo, it needs to express itself, put things out there. So do some writing, some journaling, self-expression, Communicate with your partner. Tell them what you appreciate about them while Venus is retrograde in Libra. Very auspicious. And let's see, it is still the dark moon, okay? It's before the full moon— I mean, the new moon, which is actually going to be on the 10th. So this moon with Ketu behind the Sun, it's dark. Finish up old projects. That's what it's good for, not creating new ones, not till after the new moon.
