Daily Planetary Overview
On August 12, 2020, the moon moves into Gemini, putting you in an upbeat and chatty mood. Your brain should be operating at a high level today, making information easy to process and witty banter second nature (just watch your social media consumption).
After midnight, the healing asteroid Chiron gives you even more drive as it moves through Aries. It’s a great time to show some initiative at work and with personal goals. If there are any projects you’ve been putting off, now is the time to finally get started. Just be aware that this energy can sometimes create a bit of insomnia, so try to avoid screens before bed and brew calming tea to help you relax.
The motivating energy from Chiron lasts until morning, so aim for an early start and make the most of this productive energy. The mood should stay positive throughout the day, so enjoy the high energy and make the most of it.
