Word of the Day:

 

35:57 – On Sunday, SKID MARK is the word of the day. Abrupt stops, messy situations, or derailments. Mars stations direct in Cancer, signaling forward movement but with potential conflicts, especially related to water or transportation.

 

38:38 – Monday’s word is SITUATION. A challenge or serious issue arises, possibly involving authority figures. The Balsamic Moon calls for reflection, and the Moon-Chiron square may bring emotional discomfort or difficult conversations.

 

40:10 – Tuesday's is FOGGY. Confusion, delays, or a lack of clarity, both mentally and physically. Mercury conjunct Saturn could bring bad news, tech issues, or public health concerns.

 

42:22 – Wednesday's is LAYOVER. A feeling of being stuck or delayed. The Moon squares Uranus, suggesting travel disruptions, sudden shake-ups, or unexpected events requiring patience.

 

42:49 – Thursday's word is ADORATION. A day of love, appreciation, and spiritual connection. The Pisces New Moon invites fresh starts, and Mercury sextile Uranus may bring unexpected but welcome news.

 

44:44 – Friday's is CONCRETE. Stability, reality checks, or something becoming "set in stone." The Moon conjunct Saturn highlights responsibilities, while Mercury conjunct the North Node amplifies fated decisions or long-term plans.

 

45:49 – On Saturday, the word is REFUND. Reevaluating money, relationships, or past choices as Venus stations retrograde. Could symbolize literal refunds or metaphorical ones, like reconsidering commitments or trade agreements.
