ASTROLOGY FOR WEEK OF 27th APR-3rd MAY.



MONDAY APR 27.
This morning begins with the Moon in the last degrees of talkative, curious Gemini, after a confusing end to the weekend where it joined Venus and squared deceptive, hazy Neptune.  This may have been good for creativity, but not so good for grasping what is real and what isn’t. Around 11 AM PST, the Moon heads into comfort seeking Cancer, to sextile Mercury, who heads into Taurus in the afternoon (12:53 PM PST.) The Moon also sextile Uranus, and squares Chiron. This can produce feelings of vulnerability or being caught slightly off guard by something. Things are shifting and rather unpredictable, with so much planetary activity emphasizing Uranus. Definitely WEIRD TIMES.  Today can see some excitement however, but with the lunar squares to Chiron and Juno, there can be some interpersonal tensions, perhaps some vulnerability, perhaps a conflict of interests. With Pluto now retrograde, a certain “release” of grip from something or someone can be felt, and certain issues that have been pressing can subtly lose their previously iron grip hold, and not be as strong as they once were, for the time being anyway. With Venus squaring Neptune, to go retrograde in the 2nd week of May, there’s a sense that something isn’t quite right, or something is missing, primarily, clarity. Enthusiasm is certainly there, with the Venus/Mars trine, but this is expressed mostly cerebrally, intellectually, with the emphasis on Air. Curiosity is there, clarity, not so much. Impressionability is also heightened under these configurations. The increasing emphasis on Taurus will bring our attention to what we can see, touch, and experience with our own eyes, and hold in our own hands. Mercury in Taurus emphasizes realism and pragmatism. There may be much that is unknown, but we *can* trust what can be verified through our own experiences, and what can be ascertained from our own, real, actual senses. What we can hold in our own hands. No amount of smoke and mirrors can interfere with our perception of what’s right in front of us in observable reality.  Mercury in Taurus emphasizes relying on basic common sense, as well as improvising and innovating with what we have right in front of us, and the ground beneath our feet. This is good, because Venus, (ruler of Taurus), will go retrograde and create a lot of confusion and can potentiate a lot of mental fuckery.

TUESDAY APR 28.
Today see’s the Moon in sensitive Cancer sextile hazy Neptune in Pisces.  The early morning lingering lunar square to Chiron in Aries can see compassion increased for other peoples pain, and there can be an overall compassionate and inspired energy to these configurations. Later, a lunar opposition to Pluto, and Jupiter, can magnify some intense feeling simmering under the surface, or a fixation on something. Boundaries can be more porous and discernment can be tested under these configurations. There can be missed communications or timing is off. Conversely, there can also be heightened intuition, and many insights can be gleaned in an out of the blue sort of manner. The Moon/Pluto connection though can definitely increase intensity levels. This can be a highly emotionally charged and comfort seeking energy. The Uranian contacts also seek stimulation, and much can happen out of the blue, and it's a spontaneous off the cuff sort of vibe. This can see some really interesting creative insights, or artistic or musical inspiration. Things are definitely “interesting” to say the least…A lot of unexpected goings on and out of the blue happenings under the Uranus contacts.

WEDNSDAY APR 29.
Today carries over yesterdays lingering intensity and “strangeness” and adds in a square to Saturn in Aquarius. This can be a slightly “crotchety” atmosphere, somewhat vulnerable, perhaps emotionally repressed, but also very sensitive/highly impressionable. Later in the afternoon, the Moon in late Cancer build a square to Mercury in Taurus. This can see some kind of action being taken in or around the local environment, or some kind of tension  build to a “breakthrough point.” Around 6 PM PST, the Moon heads in to expressive Leo, squaring Mercury, Uranus, and trining Chiron in Aries. This can see some unexpected happenings, that can increase confidence and faith, and offer up some healing, fun, or playful experiences. There can definitely be opportunity to channel things into creative outlets or projects, and break through cloistered, repressed, or overly serious vibes. This can be a highly charged, creative energy that will want/need an outlet. This evening can close out on a restless, excited note that could also feel sort of frustrated/ passionate/ highly “charged.”

THURSDAY APR 30.
Today see’s the Moon in enthusiastic Leo, squaring up to the Sun, Mercury, and Uranus in physical, grounded Taurus, and towards evening, going on to oppose Mars in Aquarius. This can definitely see a restless energy that wants to get it’s hands on something, like a constructive project, to keep it’s hands busy and brain occupied and stimulated. This could be a push to make something positive, fun, and constructive happen. It’s an energy that seeks real, tangible, physical results. With the Moon in Leo, fun, creativity and pleasure is emphasized.The lunar opposition to Mars later on definitely adds a highly charged “zaniness” to things, so it might be good to let off steam in fun and creative ways, this is definitely an “outside of the box” type of energy. A lunar sextile to the asteroid Vesta also highlights just making the everyday experience more enjoyable, exciting, fulfilling, and stimulating over all. In the evening, the Moon in Leo goes on to sextile Venus in Gemini. This can see some fun, pleasant, playful vibes carry out the evening, and roll into tomorrow morning. 

THE WEEKEND.

FRIDAY MAY 1.
Today begins with the Moon in Leo, sextile Venus in multitasking, talkative Gemini, and opposite energetic, competitive Mars in unorthodox, cerebral Aquarius. This could see a pleasant sort of stir crazy begin the day, and there can be some unexpected, pleasant diversions. The lunar opposition to Mars carries the majority of the day, and can see some creative or otherwise frustrations or pent up energy building, and a need for expression and release. Late in the evening a lunar trine to Uranus begins to build as the Moon reaches the final degrees of creative and theatrical Leo and enters Virgo around 11 PM PST. This sets the stage for a busy, and innovative weekend, and looks like an astrological attempt to adapt and get grounded and centered amidst some ongoing radical changes. This can see us looking to simplify, purify, and organize, and try to “get settled in” to the strange, new times, that seem to get weirder and weirder as time goes on. 

SATURDAY MAY 2.
Today see’s the Moon in practical, efficient, anxious Virgo trine the Sun, Mercury, and Uranus in Taurus. This can see some interesting but down to earth energy, very physical in nature, and bringing focus to issues of organization, routine, health, fitness, rations, efficiency, and crisis prevention. Innovation and change are the watch words, and paying attention to details and what needs “fixing” or tending to can come into the equation somehow. There can be a lot of creativity available, but simultaneously, a lot of perfectionism under the Virgo lunation. Later in the day, the Moon opposes Neptune, which can accentuate a lack of clarity or confusion, and a need to run things through a “bullshit distillery”, an influence we’ve been dealing with for a while due to the Venus/Neptune square, that is accentuated even more under this lunation. This can see us wanting to correct or address something we may feel is missing, or just bring the lack (of clarity, or something else) more into critical focus. This lunation, along with the emphasis on common sensical, practical Taurus can see us wanting to explore something to gain clarity. In the evening, a lunar square to Venus in Gemini, can bring interactions with others into focus in some way. Either partnerships, links with others, money, or values, can be an area of confusion or a matter that requires attention to detail. There are definitely a lot of changes happening, and a lot of improvisation going on. There may be some things that come up out of the blue, or some unexpected news, meetings, messages, or collaborations. The details or timelines of which might not be entirely clear, but which may later turn out some tangible, beneficial results. There is no hurry, as with the Sun, Mercury, and Uranus in slow, plodding Taurus, and Venus soon to go retrograde, taking our time with things is important. 


SUNDAY MAY 3.
Today see’s the Moon in practical Virgo, squaring Venus in Gemini, opposite Neptune, and trine Jupiter, and Pluto in Capricorn. We can have more than one pot on the burner so to speak, and there can be a lot of big ideas in the air, and a lot of information to process into smaller bites. Simplifying, and working with what’s in front of us, and stabilizing things in order to have something practical and “do-able” in place that addresses the here and now, but also accounts for the long term, and the future, (and the many variables of how *that* may pan out) can be important as we end this week and prepare for the next. There may be more than one decision to make or direction to go in, and the coming retrograde will highlight this decision making and assessment process, (and the confusion, lack of clarity, or flat out deception that we may have to wade through around this.) As the Moon heads into the later degrees of Saturn later on today, it forms a trine to Saturn in Aquarius as well. There’s definitely some major shifts happening that could involve partnerships or alliances, as we end this week with the Moon in 29 degrees Virgo, and begin Monday of next week with the Moon in partnership and diplomacy oriented “lets make a deal” Libra. There can be a lot of experimental moves going on in the coming weeks and months.

Astrology Week From 20-26 Apr 2020



MONDAY APR 20.
 After the intense culmination of the Sun at the most urgent, final degree of Aries, square to Jupiter and Pluto in Cap, as well as Saturn in Aquarius, and conjunct Uranus, it’s been a mixed bag of shock and awe, and trying to find and create peace with things. The Sun moves into earthy and physical Taurus as of today, and we kick off the week with the Moon in Aries conjunct Chiron and Mercury, which is also in Aries now, as of last week. With Venus in Gemini and Mercury in Aries both syncing up to Mars in Aquarius, there is a desire to connect with like minds to sooth the nerves. The movement of the Sun into physical Taurus causes a definite shift that will do much to bring calm and stability, and common sense, and help bring attention back into the body. The conjunction of the Sun with Uranus shakes things up in a positive way. This evening see’s the Moon in Aries sextile Venus in Gemini and Mars in Aquarius, (along with it’s conjunction to Mercury and Chiron). This can see some pleasant diversions and connections made, with an emphasis on bringing more joy, pleasure, vitality, and variety to life, and can see some unexpected but pleasant happenings. There could bee a bit of rebelliousness involved in this as the Moon connected with Mars in rebel rousing Aquarius and the Sun links with Uranus. Change is refreshing and reinvigorating, and there can be much to discuss and catch up on with like minded others, and much healing to be found in human connections, in spite of Saturns stubborn, oppressive, and erratic square to revolutionary Uranus in Taurus.

TUESDAY APR 21.
Today see’s the Moon in Aries conjunct Mercury, also freshly into Aries, and sextile Venus in curious Gemini along with Mars in social justice and humanitarian oriented Aquarius. This could see some passionate or impulsive communications, and an overeagerness to gather and spread information. With the Sun in Taurus conjunct Uranus, and square Jupiter in Capricorn and Saturn in Aquarius, people can be stubborn and fixed in their viewpoints, in spite of an influx of information that challenges those viewpoints. A lunar opposition to Juno can further emphasize a conflict of interests, and a tendency to stay in your “flock”, among those on your wavelength, and maintain emotional resonance. Venus in Gemini squaring up to Neptune is a tricksy energy, indicative of deception, illusion, impressionability, and trickery, -particularly through mediums of news and communication. This will be an ongoing theme through the retrograde that begins in the second week of May, so anticipate more fugazi, fuckery, and “matrickulation.” The trine to Mars in Aquarius shows that everyone wants to “do the right thing”, but understanding what that is will be difficult for the vast majority of people to decipher, as Gemini is two faced, two sided, and dualistic. The very presence of manipulation of facts, deception, trickery, illusion, secrecy, and confusion, should be enough of a warning signal that something is not right. The Moon goes on to square Pluto and Jupiter in Capricorn (while still conjunct Mercury), in the afternoon, indicating some intense and embroiled feelings being magnified via incoming information, communications, perhaps over simmering disagreements, or just the nature of the information imparted. There may be something inflated or intense about something that is uncovered, perhaps a “fighting spirit” is in the air. Whatever it is, things going on at this time can feel intense and magnified. Over the coming days, through the Taurus lunation beginning at the New Moon tomorrow, there can be a stubborn resistance to conformity and authoritarian forces, and drive towards a radical uprooting of systemic corrupt forces, and bringing to light and discussing buried issues. Secrets may surface or be exposed, and there may be an issue over control or abuses of power regarding information, speech and communication at this New Moon with Mercury in warrior Aries set to square off to totalitarian Pluto in strict Capricorn.


WEDNSDAY APR 22.
Today begins with the Moon in late Aries, squaring Jupiter, Saturn and Pluto, on the heels of yesterdays intensity. In the afternoon, the Moon slips in to easy going, grounded, earthy Taurus, conjunct the Sun and Uranus. The New moon culminates at 7:26 PM PST. The primary highlights here are the Sun and Moon in Taurus, conjunct Uranus, and making positive contacts to the north and south nodes. This New Moon is largely about grounding and centering amidst shifting sands and unpredictable circumstances. With Mercury in Aries squaring Pluto in Capricorn, there is an emphasis on digging for information, or on the fact that there is much that is hidden from view. This can bring an intense vibe to communications, and ingoing and outgoing news and information. The Taurus lunation can bring some relief to the more combative, passionate energies that were accentuated by the Moon’s time in Aries. Slowing the pace can connect us to more innovative energies that can see creative and innovative ways to deal with blockages, via communications or otherwise. The lunar Square to Saturn in Aquarius can see some rebellious energies building over the days ahead, and there can be some unexpected surprises, excitement, weirdness (what’s new there) but also some tension around how to navigate changes in a way that everyone can agree upon. The conjunction of the Sun, Moon, and Uranus at this New Moon will definitely see some unpredictability, shocks, revelations, innovations, and the need to think outside the box. Venus’ square to Neptune is still shrouding things in mystery and accentuating confusion, deception, and a lack of clarity and precision, but is excellent for creativity and inspiration.

THURSDAY 23.
Today see’s the Moon in common sensical, grounded, easy going Taurus, conjunct surprising Uranus and square Mars in Aquarius. This can be an energizing, stimulating influence that can produce some unexpected happenings or surprises. Mercury in Aries now squaring Jupiter in Capricorn can see an over eagerness to acquire as much intel as possible, and there can be a whole lot of information to sift through.  Mercury’s square to Pluto as well, can see much coming to the surface and being revealed during this time, perhaps buried information or secrets coming to light, with an emphasis on “truth digging.”  Today’s energy is driven towards justice with the Moon squaring Mars in humanitarian, social justice seeking, freedom fighter Aquarius. There can be a muted irritability in the atmosphere, but there is definitely a charge. Later on, a lunar sextile to Neptune mellows the vibe, and can add inspiration and imagination, and accentuate an appreciation for art, beauty, and the finer things in life, as well as generate compassion and understanding where it has been perhaps a bit lacking. The Venusian influence of Taurus, combined with the high octave agape of Neptune can be inspiring for artists and musicians and creative folks of all kinds. The charge from the lunar square to Mars lingers on and adds a late night trine to intense and probing Pluto, which can see fixations, compulsions, or obsessions around something, and there can be pleasure found in the intensity. This could produce some interesting breakthroughs, or see some inspired musings in the creative fields. Following the instincts and the intuition is favored.  

FRIDAY APR 24.

Today begins with the Moon in easy going Taurus squaring Mars in Aquarius, trine Jupiter and Pluto in Capricorn and sextile Neptune. This can see a bit of irritation underscoring the first portion of the day, but a desire to escape it. The rest of the day is highlighted by the lunar connections to Jupiter, Saturn, and Pluto. This can see an emphasis on out of the way pleasures, but also a muted intensity. Late night will see the Moon in the final, most urgent degree of physical Taurus, kicking off the weekend on a note of seeking out pleasantries to introduce some semblance of humanness, hope, and stability. This can see the weekend highlight curiosity, communication, and joy seeking, perhaps in the local environs (Moon/Venus in Gemini), amidst otherwise bizarre and unpredictable, or repressive circumstances.  



SATURDAY APR 25.

Today see’s the Moon in Gemini, trine Saturn in Aquarius, and sextile Chiron in Aries, as well as conjoining Venus in Gemini. The Sun in practical, down to earth Taurus also begins a conjunction to Mercury in late Aries. A lunar sesquisquare to Pluto can see sensitivity to stimuli heightened considerably. This weekend emphasizes curiosity, communication, and a desire to seek more pleasure in the day to day experience. The sign of Gemini highlights the local environs, communications with siblings, neighbors, and people in the local environment and community. Later on, the Moon forms a trine to Mars in rebellious, unorthodox Aquarius, suggesting some “out of the box” proclivities and happenings. This could see people itching to see something “different” happen, and to take initiatives to make this so. There can be a pleasant restlessness building that stirs the desire to instigate things that bring more joy, hope, pleasure, inspiration, vitality, and creativity into the day to day existence. It can be healing to do something unusual that challenges the status quo and established norms, (if only a little.) On into Sunday, this can see some creative diversions as the Gemini lunation goes on to square dreamy Neptune, enhancing creativity, (but also simultaneously perhaps adding to confusion.) Nonetheless, this can see a quirky, creative, curious ending to the weekend, and a zany, stimulating, if somewhat excited beginning to next week. Shifts are happening that break the monotony and stagnation.

SUNDAY APR 26.
Today see’s the Moon in curious, talkative Gemini, conjunct Venus and trine Mars in Aquarius, while square Neptune. This can see some interesting and creative vibes, and there can be a restlessness and enthusiasm in the air that encourages people to shake things up in a pleasant way. Communication is highlighted with the emphasis on Gemini and the solar conjunction to Mercury in impulsive, passionate Aries. With Mercury in square to Jupiter, Saturn, and Pluto, there may be certain blockages and limitations to work around, but innovation is definitely in the cards as the Sun and Mercury are also conjunct rebellious and improvisational Uranus. These configurations also emphasize the arts, music, enjoyment of nature, and the enjoyment of all that makes life wonderful and worth living. The lunar trine to Mars can definitely see an uptick in motivation, assertiveness, and confidence, and energy and drive can be increased. The square to Neptune can see heightened sensitivity and even some swings in mood throughout the day. Finding creative or spiritual outlets can be very healing and soothing to an overstimulated nervous system, and simple pleasures and connections with friends, neighbors or loved ones can provide comfort.

Astrology For The Week Of Apr 6-12 2020.


MONDAY APR 6.
This morning begins with the Moon in Virgo, forming a trine to Venus, Jupiter, Saturn, and Pluto, and opposite Mercury and Neptune in Pisces. It’s an anxious but oddly centering influence, and it can be grounding, centering, affirming, and even pleasant to dig, pick through and purify all the bullshit or to see basic common sense validated and affirmed in small or large ways, amidst a tsunami of..um….well….the opposite of that. (Moon in Virgo trine Pluto/Jupiter/Saturn.) Let’s just say that with the Moon in Virgo, opposite Mercury and Neptune in Pisces, a whole lot of fuckery, trickery, secrecy, deception, illusion, and fugazi is making itself very evident in the lead up to the upcoming Full Moon, that lands in partnership and diplomacy oriented Libra this week.  Decisions, decisions..Under the Virgo lunation, all input that comes in is being heavily scrutinized with a fine toothed comb because the bullshit is thick as hell and off the chain, and has been allowed to run completely buckwild. In the afternoon, the Moon moves into diplomatic Libra, while opposing Chiron, Mercury, and trine Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn and Pluto. This could see some long awaited confrontations that could create cognitive dissonance, or perhaps a feeling of vulnerability for some people. Mars in tension with Uranus and conjunct Saturn can see a radical atmosphere where forces of radical social justice clash against equally radical oppressive forces. The mode of combat appears to be primarily cerebral, and in the mental/informational sphere. There’s really just a lot of psychological-fuckery going on in general, and a need to somehow mitigate the impacts by working together with others and seeking common ground, or attempting to harmonize disparaging viewpoints or perspectives or share information.  Venus in Gemini trine Mars and Saturn in Aquarius can be pleasant seeming, on the surface, but also two faced, or playing to “both sides” or two people/parties/factions/or interests. Kind of double agent like, and this can become really confusing and weird for people, both personally and otherwise as this Venus transit plays out. “This is fine.” The Moon in Libra can highlight a lot of people pleasing going on, and efforts at diplomacy or being nice can water down the reality of a situation or gloss things over. There will come a point where a more no bullshit, cutthroat or radical, fearless approach/stand will have to be taken once the moon enters “don’t fuck with me” Scorpio later this week.



TUE APR 7.

Today begins with the Moon in conciliatory Libra trine Mars in Aquarius and Venus in Gemini, conjunct the asteroid Juno, and opposite the Sun and Chiron in Aries. This can see some vulnerabilities or sensitivities present, but also some passionate intellectual exchanges in the early hours, with both Mars and Venus in cerebral, detached air signs. Later this evening there is a full Moon  that culminates in Libra at 7:35 PM PST, that squares up to Jupiter and Pluto in Capricorn. This can certainly see some inflated feelings around interactions with others, and the atmosphere can have a muted, or politely veiled intensity. There can be some confrontations today, and with the full Moon in partnership oriented Libra opposing the Sun in feisty Aries, clear conflicts of interest or clashes in temperament, or simply a clash between our own needs v.s that of others may be apparent. The Moon square to Pluto can see some intense undercurrents, that may be best transmuted into some kind of creative or other pursuit, as opposed to directed at other people. The square to Jupiter can create a sort of ease, apathy, or pleasantness that tends to keep peoples heads down in an effort to avoid unnecessary conflicts, as opposed to fight the current or create too much resistance, or ruffle any feathers, even though there may be intense feelings around what may be happening (or not happening.) Once the Moon enters do or die Scorpio tomorrow, it may be harder to avoid certain levels of authenticity, or straight up rebelliousness. This may generate more extremes, controversy, or produce feelings or circumstances that are difficult to ignore and simply sit back and just take. “The hottest place in hell is reserved for those who see evil and do nothing about it.” Intensity builds under the Libra lunation, even though on the  surface.. all appears to be copacetic.. Later on tomorrow however, things may get weird, or extreme, and perhaps… not so mellow, with a slight potential for drama, whackness, or extremes. Some sort of radical weirdness is on it’s way down the pike. Dear god what now.


WED APR 8.
Today begins with the Moon in Libra, squaring up to Jupiter, Saturn, and Pluto. This can see some intense undercurrents, particularly in relation to others, disparaging viewpoints, and the need to find some kind of common ground. The afternoon see’s the Moon enter emotionally intense, brooding Scorpio. Initially this can be pretty heated, as the Moon still holds squares to Jupiter, Saturn, and Pluto, but throws in an ire square to Mars, and an opposition to Uranus. This can see passions on the boil, and people behaving unpredictably. There can be issues of power and control, and the desire to rebel against that, so people won’t be bossed around, undermined, manipulated, or controlled -without putting up a fight.  So if you’ve got an agenda for anybody, prepare for things to get squirelly and to potentially see some extended middle fingers, as people are not in a mood to be backed into a corner, pinned down, or told what to do. Better to drop any agendas if you have any, as Venus in Gemini and Mars in Aquarius together are pretty non committal and want to be free to learn, explore curiosities, communicate, exchange ideas and information, and fight the good fight. These configurations can see people in a pretty unpredictable frame, and power, authority, fear mongering, manipulation, or controlling behavior, won’t be welcome in certain circles. (That should never be welcome, but some people are really into it, but only people that feel they stand to benefit from it.) In this case, there could be some that feel these tactics are acceptable and are ultimately “for the good of all.” With the Moon in Scorpio however, there could be a desire to get at the truth, and create more transparency, and honesty, authenticity, and it could take some radical measures and standing up to orthodoxy (Mars/Saturn in Aquarius) to attempt to accomplish this. The rest of today can see some heated undercurrents and intensity. Scorpio is rather reflective, secretive, brooding, mysterious and quiet, so these configurations can produce some quiet “seething”, perhaps over real or perceived injustices. It’s a passionate energy for sure, that could also see people in a rare, shameless “freak mode.” There can certainly be some frustrations or blockages to deal with. One thing is certain, and that is that people won’t take kindly to being controlled or told what they can and can’t do, who they can talk to, what they’re allowed to say, wear, think, feel, or express. So if you like to have people under your control, prepare for that attempt at control to be challenged under these configurations. There can also be some unexpected, intense feelings that emerge, or something “get’s your blood boiling” out of the blue. There’s a potential for some drama here, but it doesn’t have to be the only way these configurations play out. On the positive side, this could be cleansing and cathartic, and people can be fearlessly authentic. There could be unexpected disclosures, epiphanies, or things that have been buried, stuffed down or repressed in the unconscious, working their way to the surface under this lunation.


THURSADAY APR 9.
Today see’s the Moon in Scorpio trine Neptune in Pisces. This can see some deeply felt impressions or feelings, and a reflective atmosphere can take hold. There can be some creative or other inspiration, and a sort of dreamy vibe. We can be really impressionable under these maths, and perhaps something gives us a lot to reflect upon. Late on in the evening, a lunar trine to Mercury can see some serendipities, synchronicities, communications, or simply silent mutual understandings or “telepathic links”. A lunar sextile to Pluto in Capricorn adds to the profundity, depth, secrecy and mystery in the atmosphere, and things said, heard, read, or exchanged can really make an impact upon the psyche. There is a lot of compassion available in these configurations, and emotions can be felt vividly. Perhaps we poke out of our shells just a little bit to share whatever we’ve reflected on, or receive some communication, hear a piece of news, art, poetry, or music that inspires, soothes, or pleasantly stirs the emotions somehow. Scorpio tends to keep it’s cards very close to it’s chest, and not share everything it’s thinking or feeling, and the trine to Neptune and Mercury in Pisces can add to this secrecy or mysteriousness, but it appears there’s a pleasant or deeply felt calm, or some inspiring thoughts, feelings or exchanges going on behind the scenes or under the surface that were perhaps really unexpected. The psychic impressions and “ESP” is thick under these configurations, and they can be inspiring for artists, musicians, and creative types. As quietly pleasant as these configurations can be, it’s possible that a lot is left unsaid, as the emphasis on Neptune, Pluto, and Scorpio here can see most of what’s going on or being picked up from the ethers is happening very quietly under the surface, but the feelings can definitely be stirred in a pleasant way.

THE WEEKEND.


FRI APR 10.
Today begins with the Moon in late Scorpio, trine Mercury and Neptune in Pisces, and sextile Jupiter, Pluto, and Saturn, and forming an opposition to Venus. This can see some good news come in, and some pleasant vibes. It can also see some beneficial info unearthed or sleuthed out and dispersed from intense efforts and digging, which can see truths come to light. In the afternoon, the Moon enters optimistic, truth seeking Sagittarius, to trine Chiron, and strengthening the opposition to Venus in double agent Gemini, with a sextile to Mars and Saturn in Aquarius, and still holding a trine to Mercury at the final, fated 29 degrees of Pisces. Suddenly something makes complete and total sense, and with Mercury about to enter Aries, a powerful moment of truth and lucidity is upon us. The lunar trine to Chiron increases confidence and provides a philosophical affirmation, and see’s truth prevail, even amidst fuckery or profound levels of manipulation. Not all of the truths are easy to swallow, and there may be some cognitive dissonance. Much is inverted right now. But with Venus in tricksy Gemini temporarily releasing it’s square to dubious, hazy, and deceptive Neptune, a moment of clarity regarding a lot of things can be facilitated. There is certainly a lot to talk about and a lot of information to exchange and gather, much communication happening on a wide scale. The energy is passionate, and with Mars and Saturn both in Aquarius, there are important causes to champion that require challenging orthodoxy, authority, official narratives, and turning our vision of the world upside down and inside out, producing shocking revelations and wake up calls. This is quite a way to kick off the weekend. When Venus stations retrograde in the second week of May, there will be much more fuckery to navigate, so getting a foothold now will be strategically important. All is not as it seems, and certain paradigms and filters previously used to interpret the world and even advocate for ourselves and for social justice in general (Mars and Saturn in Aquarius square Uranus in Taurus) are being thoroughly challenged turned entirely on their heads.
