For Tuesday, January 14

It may seem as if we are slowly waking from a dream. The clear, cool logic of the Virgo Moon enables us to gain fresh perspectives on recent events. But we are not immune from negative emotions — ours or someone else’s — as we grapple with the current state of our personal or cultural affairs. The conflict between angry Mars and dark Pluto can be temporarily overwhelming, but easy lunar trines end the day on a realistically upbeat note.
