Moon in Virgo · New Moon, 2% lit · your 6th house of work, habits and health

Here's the shape of it: the Moon is in Virgo today (new moon, 2% lit), which for Aries is the 6th house of work, habits and health. Think of it as the background music today. Sun is in Libra, Aries's 7th house of partnership, which adds a second layer. Venus is in Scorpio, Aries's 8th house of shared resources and intimacy, retrograde. The useful move is small and specific. Choose one thing to do with care and let the rest be ordinary. One gentle suggestion: write down the thing you're avoiding, then do the first five minutes of it.
