The sun in Libra merges with Mercury, which astrologers refer to as Mercury cazimi or Mercury entering the heart of the sun, at 1:38 AM; insights and communication are flowing and collaborations are flowering. The moon in Capricorn connects with Mars in Scorpio at 7:54 AM and strength can be sourced from emotional resiliency.

Mercury in balance-seeking Libra squares off with Pluto in Capricorn at 8:51 PM, sharpening our research and debate skills. Not everyone who hurts us is our enemy and not everyone offering help is our ally. We can learn a lot from others now.
