New Moon was in Aries on the 6th, with Venus entering this sign also, on the same day. Sun and Mercury, traveling closely together in Aries, with Sun moving on into Taurus, on the 20th. Taking a close look at Mars, the ruler of Aries, we see that it is is still in the sign of Cancer, and opposing Jupiter in Capricorn and trining Uranus in Pisces, by fortnights’ end. Bringing these three players together, means a time of reconciliation, and harmonizing through compassionate understanding, and plain old hard work. Jupiter, is not afraid to get its’ hands dirty, and Mars still caring deeply for family and community, and Uranus stirring the pot, until everyone gets to embrace, the other persons story. Having just passed through the Full Moon in Scorpio, we are already well and truly sensitized to our personal, deep emotional states. Time now to integrate, and share some much needed nurturing. It’s time to be bold and ask for what you need. Allow your vulnerability to the surface, by letting the defenses drop. What is it, that you are so busy holding on to? And why so desperately pushing out, the thing you want the most? We are all, everyone of us, looking for love, and so afraid of finding it. The funny thing is, that it is the hurt, that we have experienced, that we are defending. Time to let it go, heal, and be available to love, and to be loved.
FULL MOON 0 Scorpio 43 April 20, 2008 18:26
ARIES : Trusting that everyone, is still treating you, as the very special person, that you are. Milk the most out of this fortnight, while the Sun, Mercury and Venus, continue in your sign, and let not all the family issues and money matters, get you down. Explore some new avenues of expression, creativity and add a dash of adventure, to whatever you are currently undertaking. Life gets serious enough, without you adding any further stress to it. Ease your mind, by following your heart, and let others take care of themselves, for a while.
TAURUS : Are you ready for that wondrous time of year, when the Sun graces your sign? With Venus, traveling in Aries, you are ready for just about anything, with even the possibility of overdoing things, at the end of this fortnight. Thankfully, there is usually someone around, who can remind us of impending danger, when we get a little off track. This period will be no exception. You have an uncanny ability, to stay with your head above water, so to speak, when everyone else is floundering. Don’t however, throw caution to the wind, just yet.
GEMINI : Mercury Aries, makes for some erratic and innovative thinking. Spontaneous outbursts of communication, and quick responses, are a sure sign that all is on track, or hastily returning to it. A good time for you, to do some radical departures from the normal routine, or way of thinking. A transformative cycle, where much can be gained, by boldly stepping out, into new areas of expression. This is a great opportunity, to have your message heard, if not, received by all. Sometimes, your thinking is just way ahead of the crowd.
CANCER : This is a powerful moon cycle for you, so stay aware, that you are now, in the process of exposing yourself, and through this, evolving. A cycle of transformation and new beginnings. As we discard the old, a part of our personality, which has lain dormant, or has never been exposed to daylight emerges, and brings some newness into our lives, by all that it attracts to itself. Embrace this period with patience, and gentleness towards yourself, in this very important phase of evolution.
LEO : The Sun, far from meandering, throws a spotlight on your life, exposing the areas of vulnerability in your nature. This is the very place, you need to take notice, and to make a concerted effort to remodel. Time to reinvent, parts of your personality or physical appearance, to better suit the role, you now wish to play. This is always a fantastic opportunity, to use that artistic flair of yours, and to create something or someone fantastic. Remember to keep the true essence of your sweet nature intact, as that is well worth keeping.
VIRGO : There is a lot to be gained from good old fashioned hard work.. When you put the effort in, it pays dividends, no? I guess the greater challenge for you, is to not do, too much work. It is so easy for the boundaries to get all mushy, when you are so busy at keeping everything running smoothly. Mind that you don’t overlook your own needs, in your mission to keep all else afloat. Better to heed this advice now, rather than find yourself in a burnt-out heap, on the floor, while everyone else goes on, without you.
LIBRA : When all else fails, go and be in nature. There is nothing quite like a good dose of raw Mother Earth, to set your thoughts and emotions, straight. If people are giving you grief, why not spend some time, with the birds and the bees. It is so easy to get caught up in the humdrum of existence, and to forget the most important of our connections. The love we share with our Earth, is given back to us, many times over, and to many more, than just ourselves. When was the last time you saw the night sky, or took a walk under the Full Moon?
SCORPIO : With the moon playing lead role, for you this fortnight, things are looking pretty bright, in the emotional realms. Getting to know yourself, comes through sharing what you possess inside. As challenging as it may be, to allow another into your private areas, this is the greatest opportunity to do, just that. What a gift we give each other, when we let down our barriers and show a chink in our armor. All the energy that was bound up, in defense, is now available to peace and love.
SAGITTARIUS : Jupiter, ever expanding the horizons in the area of obligation. There are certain things that we just have to do in a lifetime, and to get on with them, is probably the best. Avoidance will only make some things, feel like that much more of a struggle, at a later date. As you move through the areas of your life now, that need the most attention, you will get a sense of appreciation, for just how far you have come along the path of your life. This is a wondrous time for you get to see, all that you have to share. Some call it, your wisdom.
CAPRICORN : It will be, for quite some time to come, that you are endowed with the ability to achieve much. To transform, and move through your life, in an ever evolving fashion. With the gift of patience, you are able to perform tasks, which others have deserted, long ago. Acting as the solid foundation, for many to shape their lives around, you could say, that you are a real, corner stone. That makes you, very important. Let this not go to your head, or you may find yourself in a very unwelcome situation; looking for grandeur.
AQUARIUS : Nurturing a new beginning, is as delicate, as any other newborn. Pay attention, to keeping everything simple and in a routine, which will optimize the growing conditions. You are currently in the very fortunate position, to be the recipient, of many blessings if you can prioritize your life, and follow your true hearts calling, and direction. Getting bogged down in responsibilities of your own making, will only confuse you, and lead you away from your souls’ calling. Take a moment, to rest and get a clear perspective on the issue, if need be.
PISCES : Remember, Creator speaks to you, all the time. It is your job to listen and to ask. Aimlessly, walking through life, will get you nowhere. Make some goals and aim yourself in their direction. There is nothing more inspiring, than a Pisces, who is self-disciplined, and motivated through a higher calling. Even in the most mundane of tasks, you can imbue a sense of the Divine, and lighten everyones’ day. No need to lose yourself, or become ungrounded, as long as you remain true to yourself, all is well. You give the most, when you give to yourself, first.
