Moon at odds with natal Venus
A sudden distaste for how you look is not a reason to empty the cart. This dip in self-assessment comes back up within hours.
In detail
Transit Moon in challenging aspect to natal Venus opens a window of about ten hours, derived from a daily motion of 12 to 15 degrees and a 3-degree orb. Venus records the standard by which being liked and being valued get measured, and the Moon raises the current emotional gain a notch, so under a hard angle that standard temporarily tightens: an ordinary response from a partner starts reading as indifference and the face in the mirror looks wrong everywhere. Where the soft angle shows what is liked, this one shows how strict the standard itself is, with impulse spending and comfort eating as its by-products.
FAQ
- How long does this dissatisfaction last?
- With the Moon at 12 to 15 degrees a day and a 3-degree orb, it runs about ten hours and the usual standard of judgement is normally back after a night.
- Has the other person actually become distant?
- Usually not. What the hard angle tightens is your own measure of being liked and valued, and the same ordinary response reads as indifference once that measure gets stricter.
