Thinking In Stages
Tuesday - May 5, 2026
I have come to appreciate the power of thinking in "stages."
I don't need to solve the entirety of a problem right now; it's okay for me to solve part of it. When the astrological energies are like they are this week, solving an entire problem may be problematic (pun intended).
But I can solve a portion of it, chip away at the problem just a little bit at a time. And this is the best way to use today's energies as the Moon continues to be Out of Bounds as the Moon moves from Sagittarius to Capricorn later in the day, AND as a 21-hour Sag Moon Void of Course lingers into late afternoon (in the eastern US).
Capricorn wants success and has standard ways it likes to achieve that success. But even stubborn Capricorn can learn a new way to do things, as it will be encouraged to do today with a square between Mercury in Taurus and Pluto in Aquarius at 5°.
I am content today to not fight the current astrological energies, but to work with them. As they are still rather up/down, hot/cold, in/out I'll think in small pieces, and allow the power of "small investments over time" to build up.
As the saying goes, "Rome wasn't built in a day." Very true, but those builders had to show up every day, put their minds to the planning, strategy and execution. And bit by bit, day by day, their city was complete.
