Planetary Transits

Handling the Mars-Moon Friction in Taurus

Right now, the Moon and Mars are sitting together in Taurus. This transit isn't exactly peaceful. It creates an emotional intensity that can make you feel reactive or easily triggered by small inconveniences. When these two meet, your patience usually wears thin fast.

Don't let that frustration dictate your day. If you're feeling the heat, you need a grounding practice that works quickly. Skip the complex rituals. Instead, focus on water and earth.

Here's what you do: keep a silver vessel of cool water near your workspace. Every time you feel a spike in agitation, take a sip. More importantly, step outside and touch the actual ground—grass or soil—with your bare feet for five minutes. This physically anchors that erratic Martian energy and settles the Moon’s tendency to fluctuate. It’s practical, it’s immediate, and it stops you from making decisions you'll regret when the Moon moves into the next sign. Keep your head down and stay steady.
