Happy Thanksgiving to those in the U.S. as well as everyone around the world celebrating this holiday.
There’s a strong Piscean flavor to the day. Not only is the Moon in that sign until 7:11 pm PDT but it’s void-of-course (VOC) most of the day. When the Moon’s VOC, there’s often an untethered floating feeling, not unlike the energy that Pisces can emanate. Additionally, Venus is in aspect to Neptune, the planetary ruler of Pisces.
Piscean energy can be diffuse, sensitive, artistic, inspired, and sometimes a little spacey. What a Thanksgiving with a Piscean flair looks like runs the gamut. It can manifest as everything from feeling a heightened sense of compassion for a family member to having one too many beers while watching the college football games. Potentially, someone may decide to use the gathering as a stage for welling up sympathies or the cook may forget to add an ingredient to a recipe or take the turkey out in time.
Yet, what it also allows us on this day when we give thanks is to tap into a deep reservoir of feelings of gratitude. With communicative Mercury in harmonious aspect to action-oriented Mars, we may also sense an extra push to express our thankfulness to the friends and family who fill our lives with joy and richness.
Happy Thanksgiving! I am thankful to all of you.
