At 1:54 a.m.: Mercury is conjunct Pluto

In the pre-dawn hours, Mercury aligns with Pluto in Capricorn, inspiring in-depth discussions. An investigative disposition helps us get to the bottom of things, but be mindful that what is uncovered cannot easily be reinterred. This is a time when information is exposed and secrets outed, yet it also allows us to have a productive confrontation with our own shadow motivations for progress and advancement. The darker manifestation of this transit involves using words to hypnotize or ensnare others. Perhaps we wish to align people with our personal vision, but in doing so we can overstep their boundaries. Consent is necessary for any contract! Aim to use speech as a tool for self-discovery instead of as a weapon to manipulate power dynamics.

At 9:10 a.m.: The moon is sextile Mercury, and the moon void of course begins

In the morning, the Scorpio moon sextiles Mercury, galvanizing conversations. We want the truth—and we want it given to us straight! Fortunately, this is a transit where transparency mitigates friction. Even heavy topics can be approached in low-pressure (yet meaningful) discussions. The moon begins its void following this aspect, making the next few hours a good time to reflect on subjects brought to the table.
