Travel writers, food writers, and anyone who writes about daily routines of any kind will have a wonderful writing day today. The Moon in Taurus allows us to feel those sensual details, and the biquintile to Mercury enhances our communication of them. We’ll even have a tendency to over-do the expressiveness, and we may move into the realm of complete fantasy. You could write about housework today and make it seem like a fantastic voyage. If you are a fantasy writer, this could be perfect, allowing you to spin outlandish dreams that seem very real. Lasso a cloud today and bring a few dreams down to earth. Build yourself some fantastic scenes.

This morning, it’s as if the floodgates have opened and your writing is pouring out. This afternoon, though, things slow down. It’s a great evening for considering big new ideas about where your writing can take you. Your greatest visions are achievable as you blend them with practicality and stamina. Writing about women’s issues is highlighted, especially about the future of women or about women in foreign countries. If you write science fiction, speculate about the role of women in future societies or on other planets.

This is an exceptionally good morning for children’s writers. As the Moon approaches conjunction with Uranus, you can come up with some surprising twists and turns in whatever story you’re writing. You’ve got the drive, and you can see the big picture of where your work is going. This evening, any writing concerning the welfare of children or the nurturing of children will go extremely well. There is the potential to write about profound changes in how the world cares for all children.

You really want to get writing this morning but you’re not sure which way to go. You could write that outline, but there’s that really fun scene you want to tackle as well. You’ll be torn between work and pleasure today. Work will probably win because it has the stronger aspects. But that fun is out there, tempting you like a big clown on a merry-go-round, beckoning for you to jump on. If there is any way to make your work fun, go there! Today you can confirm that your writing is both your work and your pleasure. The two go hand in hand.

The day starts out with a Moon/Neptune conjunction in Pisces. Belief systems are highlighted today. Anyone writing critically about religious institutions will be in their element. There’s a push to eliminate the fog around these institutions to look at them and see them for what they are, warts and all. Comedy writers could get in on the act today, too, writing satire or skewering sacred cows. Tonight, we see the big picture and where we may have been fooling ourselves with belief systems that don’t stand up to scrutiny in the light of day. Write about that.

You’ll be dealing with other work issues instead of writing this morning. It’s a good day for dealing with contracts or social media marketing or foreign publishers. You could also get some computer maintenance done or get your backup system in order. It’s a day of practicalities with a vision toward making your work routine smoother in the future. As the Moon goes into Pisces tonight and conjuncts Neptune, you’ll probably just want to take it easy and read or watch a movie. But in alliance with today’s practical work motif, while you’re watching that movie, see if you can identify the plot structure in that screenplay.

This morning there’s a real feeling of moving forward with our writing. The structure we’ve been working on has given us the freedom to play around within it, without getting lost in chaos. The Mars/Jupiter quincunx breaks free as well, so we can be as dramatic as we want to be. The Moon quintiles the Sun which fires up our creative ideas. Tonight, Mercury leaves deep brooding Scorpio and enters adventurous Sagittarius. The next three weeks will be a writing journey you won’t want to miss!

This morning, we sense change in the air, good change that smells like freedom. We’ve done so much of the grunt work in our writing, the research, the outlining, the plotting and the planning. We’re on the verge of being able to just write. Around noon, the Moon enters Aquarius. This stirs up exciting new ideas and gives us a sense of leaping into the future. Science fiction or fact articles are highlighted today. The pathway we’ve been plodding along with our writing starts to feel like a paved road. Yet Mercury still lingers in Scorpio with Saturn, so it’ll be another day or two before the road becomes a racetrack and it’s full speed ahead!
