The
New Moon in Aries fires up our enthusiasm! What are you full speed
ahead moving into? Aries is the warrior aspect of our self-image. He
represents drive and desire, passion and vitality. The warrior can be
restless and rebellious and signals the shift from one season to the
next. Here in the northern hemisphere it is time to dig in the garden
and start new projects. In the southern hemisphere it is time to slow
down and begin to turn inward.
This
New Moon jump-starts a vigorous trend for the better part of the year.
Much new potential is concealed and well hidden from view. Radical
Uranus closely conjoins the today’s new moon cycle inspiring recent
seeds of change to awaken and start to take root. Former belief systems
are being disproved. Long withheld brazen opinions fly off tongues and
steps are taken in the much-needed direction of global consciousness.
April
5, Venus floats into Pisces. When the Goddess of Love visits the two
fishes she is in her sign of exaltation. This is as great for romance
and intimate relationships as it is for finding a closer connection with
the Divine Spirit. The only warning I have for you is take care to not
be too self-sacrificing especially on April 11 when Neptune unites with
Venus for a soiree. If art, beauty and diving into the spiritual side of
things are what you have been craving—you are in for a treat.
Mercury
rules the way we think and speak our minds. When he roars into the sign
of the ram April 7, we are inspired to become overly chatty. Tensions
can mount causing outbursts without concern for the feelings of others.
Be sure to have a little extra time to think things through before you
barrel down anyone’s throat!
When
an outer planet turns retrograde it may not be immediately apparent on
the surface but I assure you that it is felt deep within your being.
April 14 when Pluto switches his course and begins to inch back through
Capricorn until September 22, we feel the insistent influence of the
dark lord uncover the things we have been hiding. I encourage you to
tell the truth and allow this to be a first step in a much needed, deep
healing process.
We
experience our first eclipse cycle of the year April 15 with a Total
Lunar Eclipse during the Full Moon in the sign of Libra. Just dues are
dealt and paid forward. The ancient view of eclipse patterns associated
them with hardship and loss. A lunar eclipse represents an overthrow of
the ego mind by the psyche. This eclipse causes a revolution within your
intimate relationships, inspiring evaluation and regrouping. There is
no room for compromise in spite of Libra’s love of balance. Indeed it a
good idea to play fair. Stillness allows unexplored territories to open
up. Honesty help impart equilibrium.
The
Sun moves into Taurus April 19. The sign of the bull represents an
enlivening of the physical senses and provides and invitation to enjoy
the finer things that life has to offer. Find grounding in your daily
habits to enjoy this to the fullest potential.
The
weekend of April 20 to 21 surely holds surprises. Jupiter the giant in
Cancer squares outrageous Uranus in Aries while opposing mysterious
Pluto in Capricorn. At the same time Uranus is square to Pluto. This is a
continuation of a series of Uranus-Pluto squares. To know more on this,
please refer back to previous Moon Wisdom editions. April 22, Mars in
Libra joins in and the four, form a Grand Cardinal square. This is
certain to ignite social upheaval and a variety of disturbances. Take
extra precaution with your personal security. I suggest beginning now
and have your new system in place by this time. The upside is a
guaranteed modification of current standards for the better.
Mercury
enters Taurus April 23 helping new ideas with positive solutions to be
set in place at a global level. On the contrary, your personal
relationships may stagnate a bit in the area of communication. Take
extra time to see things through and expect less from others in response
time. Exercise fewer reactions and remove your need to verbally
feedback. Instead just listen.
The Aries New Moon is a time of renewal and beginning again. We circle around the board and pass “Go” once more. Keep your volatile side in check with concern for others. With self, go full force into a transformation.
I am sure you will enjoy the story and learn a great deal about yourself reading it!
Read on for my predictions for the 12 signs.
Aries March 19/20 to April 20/21
Just
when you think everything is set in stone you find yourself in the
quakes of big changes. Stay focused and in a semblance of reality
regarding your future aspirations. Skillfully ride the waves of change
sweeping through your love-life and financial sectors. The secrets you
thought you had tucked away neatly have been strewn in front of the
public eye. Honestly owning up to your previous behavior demands that
you remove the rose-colored lenses you had been allowing to fool your
perception of reality. Engage all of your protective resources to
protect your progeny. Extra time is best spent in quiet solitude rather
than in avoidance of your feelings. Stop fooling yourself that you are
helping others. Now is the time to help yourself.
Taurus April 20/21 to May 21/22
New
found successes in your career sector help to steady yourself through
current health challenges. Change your behavior and your thinking. For
insights, try asking the dream-keeper to project images and ideas to
you. This illuminates your path. Hold yourself back from making rash
decisions. Use the 24 hour rule for thinking things over before
investing your precious resources. All of your relationships are
steadily improving. Take this positive energy and focus on
systematically checking things off your to-do list. The even better news
is that somehow there seems to be more hours in each day, so take full
advantage of this!
Gemini May 21/22 to June 21/22
Bring
all of your ideas and projects out of your secret hiding place. The
time is ripe for you to pitch, submit and seek out collaboration. Keep
your head steady and maintain a high integrity with your work ethic.
Your positive investment floods the tank of your assets. Seeds of
radical change plant themselves in your relationship pot. In order to
survive the choking effect, keep the focus on your spiritual growth
rather than getting caught up in the feelings and blowing this out of
proportion. This leads you in the right direction and helps you see a
clear line forward.
Cancer June 22/23 to July 22/23
Invest
every drop of your energy into your career. Create new schemes for the
future in order to assure success. You are ripe and ready to set new
plans into action and make powerful moves. The trick is to convince
yourself to keep at it for more time than you usually like to spend.
Many new possibilities are peaking, so be sure to seize the moment and
say yes to all of them. Your health is improving though still demands
your vigilant care. Take extra rest to insure feeling better and better
every day. Stash away a percentage of the unexpected windfall coming
your way and save it for a rainy day.
Leo July 22/23 to August 23/24
All
of your ideas are being well received at work. Unfortunately the group
closest to you is not ready for this and unable to keep up. Rather than
seeing this as a setback, realize you are ahead of schedule. Use the
extra time and space to be available for your siblings. Make necessary
repairs and renewals on communications equipment and your vehicle. This
is not the time to be thrifty. When the smoke clears, take a much-needed
mini-break vacation. This rejuvenates your spirit and helps to restore
your depleted reserves.
Virgo August 23/24 to September 23/24
Watch
for cracks in the protective sheath of your precious resources. Though
the changes are affecting you slowly over time it is best to handle them
immediately. This assures your readiness for bumps in the road ahead.
Stay loose and ride the twists and turns with humor and acceptance. Your
intuition and awareness are sharp, allowing you to roll with inevitable
change. This is not the time to sink new roots. In order to create more
space and time for creative inspirations, find ways to successfully
sidestep confusing conversations. Have your favorite tools on hand so
you can capture the whisperings of muse.
Libra September 23/24 to October 23/24
Prepare
to suit up! You are in the flux of many intense changes, so much so
that you are considering radical new looks in wardrobe and hairstyle.
There is no use trying to struggle against the urge. Just go with it.
You may be asked to travel overseas or become involved in new endeavors
in the world of publishing. Now is the perfect time to make the
commitment to enroll in the college course you have considered for many
years or to hunker down and really commit to a steady routine. It is
fine to wait until the last minute to take the plunge.
Scorpio October 23/24 to November 22/23
Things
are finally slowing down a bit creating much-needed breathing space.
You have been running at such a high velocity that this little respite
opens a floodgate of inspiration and creativity. Those of you in
committed relationships find new lines of communication and a long
desired meeting of the minds. Invest time in revamping your work
routine. Designate time in your day for enjoyment and treat yourself to
much needed “me time.” Keep your boundaries stealth to honor this
decision. Communications slow down for the coming months giving you the
space you deserve to enjoy life.
Sagittarius November 22/23 to December 21/22
New
common ground crystallizes into view in your relationships. Collaborate
with your mate on a renovation project to help beautify your sanctuary.
This makes it more inviting to stay put at home and in turn helps you
to stay healthier and happier. To avoid overwhelm, choose your projects
wisely. Unexpected good news takes you one step closer to your dreams.
Be sure to keep ample storage of energy for children and employees.
These are the people who need you the most right now. Keep your
wanderlust in check. You are going to be called upon for unexpected
events.
Capricorn December 21/22 to January 20/21
Any
extra investment you can make for your health right now returns greatly
and helps you to negotiate bumps just ahead on the road caused by
employers and parents. Though authority can push your buttons, you must
find a way to give thanks for every precious moment with them. Each time
you are given a second chance, be extremely grateful. The one you care
about most needs your support right now to help them through a crisis.
Selfless service is an extremely high form of honor. Extend this to a
broader group and watch as the positive vibrations affect your
investments at all levels. Relax and allow the magic to happen. The
culmination is just around the corner.
Face
your family issues with strength and integrity. Spiritual beliefs are
tested and up for modification. Your transformative powers reach beyond
the scope of your current situation. Take the risk to spread them
further. Store up reserves for those closest to you and graciously offer
to help anyone in need. Handle all challenges with grace. You
surprisingly have a great deal of extra energy. When given personal
time, comb through your daily routine and make clever changes to your
diet, sleep, exercise and relaxation habits. Become more efficient with
time management. View all of these changes as a part of your awakening
rather than a cause for overwhelm. The sooner you begin the better.
Pisces February 18/19 to March 19/20
Prepare
to lose your mind! Take this as a positive action. The best way to
proceed is this: Identify drama when it happens and then choose to be
non-reactive. Take extra care to mindfully watch unnecessary spending
and create boundaries for the rest of this year. The cohesive plan you
put into action now helps you track and inventory everything. This in
turn helps you do the best for yourself. Take extra time to give
attention to your inner circle. Choose activities that help to keep you
close to home where you will be needed more throughout the months to
ahead.
