To Have and to Hold – The Moon within the Grand Sextile

The double Grand Trine in Water is still quite active. In fact, it doesn’t begin to fade until after the weekend. The moon moved through it yesterday. When the moon reaches 180 degrees from the Scorpio corner of one Trine, it will create the first Grand Sextile (7/29/2013).
