Saturday, April 30^th, the Moon travels through Taurus all day. There is a Solar Eclipse today at 3:28 PM at 10 degrees of Taurus.

Moon conjuncts Sun, 3:38 PM: The Eclipse in Taurus today will have the strongest impact on the Fixed signs of Taurus, Leo, Aquarius, and Scorpio. This is a time of heightened awareness about power, money, deception, paranoia, and learning more about how well your value yourself. The Solar Eclipse is a New Moon cycle that helps us to focus on being more grounded, using our resources more wisely, and taking better care of Mother Earth. We will all be more aware of the impact that we have on the environment and how the environment is affecting us. We may not be as focused before the Eclipse, but we are much more grounded afterwards. Taurus reminds us that life has many pleasures!

Venus conjuncts Jupiter, 4:14 PM: Venus, the ruler of Taurus is aligning with Jupiter, the planet of growth, expansion, and social trends. This aspect has been in play for the last 10 days and will continue to be strong for the next 10 days. We are seeking creature comforts with this aspect. It is an easy time to spend money, enjoy good food and drinks, and to connect with your friends at the lake or the beach. This is the perfect vacation aspect to take one or plan one. Love is in the air and we are looking for ways to satisfy ourselves and our loved ones. In business, this makes the interactions more pleasant and others understand more easily. Be careful as it is much easier to overload your schedules. We are more psychically sensitive with this aspect as well. This can be a great time for a past life regression, astrology reading, or just hiking out and sitting among the stars. Basically, this aspect wants us to have more fun in life! Overdoing it is the word of the day!!

Moon sextiles Mars, 6:23 PM: We are busy this evening with extra energy to get out and have some fun as that is the theme of the day. We are more impulsive and spontaneous with this aspect. A great time for a workout or a sporting evening!

Moon conjunct Uranus 11:24 PM: Our mental and emotional energies are highly charged this late evening. This aspect is not very conducive to sleeping as it is great for problem solving, meeting, new friends, and connecting with your tribe. Social media will be very active tonight!

All times are central.

Friday, April 29^th, the Moon spends part of the day in Aries and part of the in Taurus. The Moon goes void-of-course at 4:38 PM in Aries but soon enters Taurus at 7:19 PM and Luna is no longer void-of-course.

Pluto goes Retrograde, 2:38 AM: Pluto, our planet of transformation, shedding our old skin, facing our demons, power, and manipulation is now Stationary Retrograde. This has been occurring for the last month and Pluto will still be moving more slowly for the next month. We are digging for the gold, opening up to treasures and insights into ourselves. This is especially strong for the Cardinal signs of Cancer, Capricorn, Aries, and Libra. This can be a time for detoxing yourself of bad habits, ridding yourself of negative people and coming to terms with what powers and talents you have. Often Pluto works in our unconscious, and we are all having a heavy dose of realism with this Pluto station. Some of us feel out of control. We are sure of our own future. How can we live next to a volcano and feel safe? This can produce some sadness, melancholy, and depression. Being action and having an agenda can help with these feeling. Relax and remember, you are not in control.

Moon sextiles Saturn, 8:16 AM: We are up early with an agenda in hand. This is a morning to get your work done in an efficient manner. We are clear about boundaries of what is important and what isn’t.

Moon square Pluto, 4:38 PM: This aspect helps us to get to the core of an issue. This can really help in digging in and not giving up. We can feel under pressure and the demands of others with this aspect.

The Moon in Aries at 4:38 PM is now void-of-course in Aries until 7:19 PM when the Moon enters Taurus and is no longer void.

Mercury enters Gemini, 5:23 PM: Our communicator enters Gemini, a sign that Mercury is always comfortable in. We will all be more communicative and about what goes on in our daily life. Our mind is more active, and we are interested in many different things. We can easily try to do too much with Mercury in Gemini.  Mercury will go retrograde on May 3^rd through June 11^th. Mercury is already slowing down, and you may see the effects of Mercury retrograde taking place. Communications and traffic may not flow as well. Expect delays. The internet often doesn’t work as well either. Get prepared.

All times are central.

Thursday, April 28^th, the Moon continues her adventure through Aries, the trail blazer, all day!

Mercury trine Pluto, 7:05 AM: This helpful planetary alignment can clear up problems, define parameters, assess strategy, improve efficiency, and help to keep our self on track. This aspect is great for problem solving because it understands the origins of its inception. We are more serious with our communication and may be willing to say less to be heard. We may be more obsessive to understand the motives of others. On a global view, this can help with difficult negotiations as it allows the truth to come to the surface. With this aspect in play for the last 6 days and continuing for the next 6 days, we can improve our work conditions, modernize our offices, do some therapy, and have a workout at the gym.

This is our only planetary or lunar aspect of the day. The activity level remains high and that will keep us more awake and possibly more stressful.

All times are central.

Wednesday, April 27^th, the Moon travels through Pisces as the day begins. Luna does go void-of-course at 8:36 AM. The Moon enters Aries at 11:10 AM and the Moon is no longer void-of-course. The early morning is very active.

Mercury sextile Jupiter, 12:11 AM: We are gathering data, looking at the bigger picture, and sharing our thoughts on all the current issues. This aspect has been in play for the last 6 days and will continue to be strong for the next 6 days. This is a very positive aspect for blogging, expanding your presence on social media, improving your education, reaching out to new clients, expanding your advertising, and planning your next vacation. On the global scene, this should help with political negotiation with differing sides finding common goals. This is also a creative time for writers, artist, and dancers. Make sure you expand your horizons with this aspect.

Moon conjunct Neptune, 1:02 AM: This should help us get to dream land sooner. If you are awake, you are appreciating your personal time!

Moon conjunct Jupiter, 6:07 AM: We wake up with an agenda on our mind. We are restless and may think we are going to get more done that we will. Slow down and enjoy the morning.

Moon sextile Mercury, 6:35 AM: We are feeling more organized although our nerves are very stimulated. This is a great aspect for a morning walk, Tai Chi, or Yoga. We want to open our lungs to air!

Moon sextiles Pluto, 8:36 AM: We are more organized by this time of the morning. We are better assessing what we are going to focus on. We are reviewing our finances and looking for ways to expand our resources. Relationships can be intense but satisfying this morning.

The Moon in Pisces at 8:36 AM is now void-of-course in Pisces until 11:10 AM when Luna enters Aries and is no longer void-of-course.

Venus conjunct Neptune, 2:12 PM: This planetary aspect is very different from the Mercury/Jupiter aspect earlier in the day. We will want more personal time as we are more sensitized to the people that we connect with. This aspect does best when we put our energies into self-care, meditation, or Yoga. With this aspect in play for the last 7 days and continuing for the next 7 days, we will have more social moments but those will be balanced with the need to make sure that we are safe. If you are a sensitive type, you may want some “mental health” days from work especially if you are in a stressful position. This aspect impacts the Mutable signs of Pisces, Virgo, Gemini, and Sagittarius. Be careful to not overload your schedule. And be ready to adapt and go with the flow. Some of us will experience this as low energy or a sluggishness. Pace yourself over the next couple of days!

All times are central.

Tuesday, April 26^th, the Moon continues to float through Pisces all Day.

Moon sextiles Uranus, 6:39 AM: A great morning to be up early. Our brain is active, and we are planning our day. This is a great aspect for problem solving, connecting with friends, and see a path of hope.

Moon conjunct Venus, 11:50 PM: A great night to be with that special someone!  We seek physical joy and fulfillment with this aspect. With some, we seek mental joy and fulfillment which can be found on social media. And if all else fails, have a Snickers!

All times are central.

Monday, April 25^th, the Moon starts the day void-of-course in Aquarius but soon Luna enters Pisces at 5:15 AM and is no longer void-of-course. Most of the activity is in the latter part of the day!

Moon sextiles Sun, 3:09 PM: This lunar aspect is great for sales, working with others on a project, connecting to the needs of your community, and enjoying your time with friends.

Moon conjunct Mars, 7:51 PM: We are very active this evening. This is good for sporting evening, a workout, confronting issues in your life, and taking life too personally. It’s easy to lose our temper this evening. Try not to let others get under your skin.

Sunday, April 24^th, the Moon soars through Aquarius all day. Luna does go void-of-course at 7:33 PM and she remains void until Monday morning at 5:15 AM when she enters Pisces and is no longer void-of-course.

Moon squares Uranus, 1:35 AM: This can keep our brain extra active and may make our dream night more colorful! It can be a restless night for the fixed signs of Taurus, Leo, Aquarius, and Scorpio.

Mercury squares Saturn, 8:50 AM: Mercury, our communicator and organizer, is feeling slow or blocked with this planetary aspect. Saturn forces us to be extra careful about what we say and what decisions we make. We can easily feel that we don’t have enough information to make a decision that we feel confident about. We are rethinking our current career direction to make sure we are on the right path and not wasting out time. This aspect has been in play for the last 7 to 8 days and will continue to be strong over the next 7 to 8 days. For many, this will feel like we are being blocked or ignored. Patience is the key here in dealing with all situations. In a way, this can feel like Mercury retrograde with traffic problems, internet sluggishness, and it just taking more time than necessary to get your normal routines accomplished. If you have some project that need to get done, this aspect will provide the right guilt and motivation to get then done. Focus on what you can get done instead of what you can’t!

Mercury sextiles Neptune, 5:37 PM: This Mercury aspect helps to soften some of the harshness of the effects of Saturn by helping us to find ways to escape our obligations to that we can get out and smell the flowers. We are looking for reasonable solutions that help us get through the day. Exercise, meditation, Tai Chi, Yoga are all good ways to release tension and find your sense of personal balance. We are more creative with this aspect and may feel more inclined to write. Whereas Saturn may put demands and expectations on our work. This aspect has been in play for the last 6 days and will continue for the next 6 days. When you are feeling overwhelmed, this aspect can help you by making sure you have time for yourself. Answer can come with this aspect, but we have to be open to new ways of viewing things. We are more drawn to the unknown with this aspect.

Moon conjuncts Saturn, 6:33 PM: Moon squares Mercury, 7:33 PM: This Lunar aspect and the next one will really emphasis the energies that have been building all day. If you have a deadline, you will want to meet it. But you will need to give yourself a stopping point or you could go on for several hours. This is also a good time for getting prepared for next week.

Tomorrow, is a day to slow down and see where we are!

Moon sextiles Neptune, 3:38 PM: We are more introspective this afternoon. We may need some time to ourselves or to be in a less stressful environment. We are more creative during this time as well. This is a very good aspect for any type of advertising or connecting with what people’s needs are.
