Within this First Quarter Moon, steady, constant Saturn is sextile Uranus, and Mars is aligned with both planets – trine Saturn in Pisces, sextile Uranus in Taurus. This could reveal a consistency in stepping up and towards your public profile but also underlines support systems and the role or contribution of others. You have been reconsidering things of career or professional life, or sudden radical changes and metamorphosis may have impacted your work or reputation, with an unorthodox outer appearance, or even fame and notoriety bestowed upon you. Uranus in your sector of vocation and success may present you currently as a maverick – someone unusually going against the grain. Your work may be progressive, or innovative, at odds with the norm.
