Is Scorpio a bad Moon rising?

Voice of rage and ruin?  Of earthquakes and lightning?  Or, are we afraid of our own powerful desires?  
We’re heading into the emotional intense waters of Saturday’s Scorpio Full Moon, rising at 8:36 PM, PDT.  Desires rooted in revenge and passion reveal themselves.  

The Force of claiming your personal power is with you.
The week of April 29, 2012

Aries ♈ (March 20-April 19)
Monday promises to be a very productive day, with just the right cooperative mix of planning and action.  You’re building the confidence Tuesday morning to accept some deeper truths about why you’re feeling what you’re feeling and wanting what you’re wanting.  What’s bubbling up to the surface on the way to Saturday’s Full Moon in Scorpio?  Wednesday’s a quiet morning, but a good-feeling one since Jupiter’s cornucopia of bountiful gifts fills your breakfast table!   The status quo is turned over like an apple cart Thursday morning when lightning bolts throw it off balance.  Uranus opens up the road to freedom around 6:00 AM, PDT, and you may just take off on a new adventure while still in your pajamas!  

Taurus (April 20-May 20)
Find your buried treasure, your unknown resources, when Sunday’s Taurus Sun shines the light of discovery on your secret desires (2:30 AM, PDT).  This gives you a head start on the unveiling of relationship secrets under the Scorpio Full Moon this Saturday.  Tuesday’s foggy, so you’re likely to try to add 2 and 2 but come up with 5 or 6!  Leave the budget for later, and write those thank you notes and gratitude lists of all those people who care about you so much.  The second half of your work week is under the Libra Moon.  You’ve finished an objective fact-gathering mission, and now you sit regally on the bench of justice and fair play where you’re ready to hear other points of view.  Sweet and accommodating as your demeanor appears, you rule!

Gemini (May 21-June 20)
Back to work on Monday is unusually satisfying.  You’re in the mood to get things done, and to do it very efficiently.  Wednesday evening around 7:00 PM, PDT, you’ll feel a relational tug to connect with others when the Moon shifts to loving Libra.  Yes, Libra’s all about relationships, but make no mistake she insists on justice and fair play.  This is why Libra is referred to as the velvet glove on an iron fist--you’re in no mood to be fenced in.  The Scorpio Full Moon is all about the power of your loving.

Cancer (June 21-July 21)
Unmasking Darth Vader, releasing your fear of an unknown, is easy this Sunday morning thanks to the help of an enlightening Taurus Moon.  You’re unleashing your need to create something new in your life, and the Force helps you do this on the way to Saturday’s powerful Full Moon In Scorpio.  By Tuesday afternoon, the Virgo Moon adds precision to your work and sheds a light on something that’s been hard to see until now. You may not be able to decide between cereal boxes Thursday morning, so you’ll rebel and eat pizza!  But never fear, the Scorpio Full Moon will bring out your true desires.

Leo (July 22-August 22)
Sunday starts with joyous, generous emotions with the Moon finishing her last day in your sign.  It seems nothing is too much when this Lioness Leo Moon satisfies her need for a luxurious indulgence just before bedtime, when Jovial Jupiter reads her a story about sugar plums--and tomorrow’s Nordstrom sale.  Monday’s on-task energy is fortunately tempered with cooperation and sharing of duties and responsibilities.  Therefore, you’re both efficient and effective, incorporating others into your planning.  You believe the benefits of compromise are often worth it, but by Thursday you’re just fed up with restricting circumstances and ready to howl at the Scorpio Full Moon.  

Virgo (August 23-September 22)
Monday’s Virgo Moon at 4:00 PM, PDT, makes a clean sweep, helping you put your house in order.  Then she’ll tuck you in for a good nights sleep with sweet accolades about a job well done.  Your focus is a little fuzzy around the edges Tuesday morning, so it’s not a good time for detailed work.  Random acts of kindness are a perfect expression of your dreamy mood. What-will-the-neighbors-think is not a worry for you on Thursday morning when you feel struck by the urge to run freely down the street in your pajamas. The Scorpio Full Moon on Saturday finds you pregnant with your own new life.

Libra (September 23-October 22)
Monday’s off to a constructive start with Structured Saturn giving a go-ahead wink at the creative Leo Moon.  This is combustible energy that puts you into action.  Wednesday opens with a beautiful blessing of good fortune from Joyful Jupiter in love-the-comforts-of-life Taurus. The Moon lifts off into the airy intellect of Libra Wednesday evening, adding fairness to the critical eye you’ve had from Virgo.  Justice-for-all Libra stands in readiness for a confrontation with the sudden surprises of Uranus early Thursday morning (around 6:00 AM, PDT).  Serendipity points the way to your heart’s desire, revealed by Saturday’s Full Scorpio Moon.

Scorpio ♏  (October 23-November 21)
Hang onto your spiritual hat, this is going to be an intense week, starting with a call to action.  Prioritize and plan early in the week, because by Tuesday It may be hard to pull yourself out of the dreamy visions that have you off balance.  Saturday’s Scorpio Full Moon will tempt you to take everything very personally.  It’s a “we’re not going to take it anymore” kind of Thursday morning.  You are in fact going to some emotional extremes, but you feel it’s worth the uncomfortable disapproval of others.  Friday night the Moon shifts into sexy Scorpio (7:19 PM, PDT) and your focus shifts to your deepest desires.  Don’t concentrate on what’s unfulfilled, rather celebrate the aliveness of your passion for life.  

Sagittarius (November 22-December 20)
Monday morning you’ll just feel like getting things done.  You’re off to an efficient week. You’re doing okay until Thursday morning when you step outside for the newspaper and start to scream about the injustices in the headlines.  The positive use of this sudden rebellion is that you’ll take at least part of your own protest to heart, and make the deeper changes in your life that allow you to live more fully in your truth.  On Friday you’re called to present your plans, your life goals, with a clear purpose in mind.  Just in time to mix the cerebral with your physical desires under the Scorpio Full Moon.

Capricorn (December 21-January 19)
Sunday morning has a deeply harmonious tone to it.  The Taurus Sun sheds light on an easy way to make a change you know is needed.  Your emotions are running deep Tuesday morning, but your reasoning is foggy--just feel your way through.  You can fill in the blanks under the scrutiny of Saturday's Full Moon in Scorpio.   You may feel like a gray cloud has descended over your emotions late in the week, but don’t act from there.  It’s not really loneliness, but rather a narrowed-down focus on your personal life--allowing you to see your heart’s desire.

Aquarius (January 20-February 17)
Monday’s a productive day that just gets better and better when the Leo Moon walks off stage and gives the reigns to the efficiency expert of the Zodiac, Virgo (4:00 PM, PDT) .  
You mood turns to relationship issues with the Libra Moon on Wednesday evening around 7:00 PM, PDT.  Libra has learned the objective fact-gathering of Virgo, and now she sits regally on the bench of justice and fair play where she’ll hear your point of view.  Sweet and accommodating as her Venus-ruled demeanor appears, she rules.  The Full Moon in Scorpio occurs Saturday evening at 8:36 PM, PDT.  The spotlight is on matters of deepest concern, and the need for dying to old concepts of what we value.

Pisces ♓  (February 18-March 19)
Efficiency is the keynote to start your week.  Take advantage of the clarity in Tuesday’s Virgo Moon to clean up your perceptions, which have been flat-out guesses until now.  Just don’t take it to the Virgo extreme of being so “right” that you’re in the black-and-white courtroom of  unhappiness.  Wednesday morning is quietly efficient with the Moon still in organizational-genius Virgo.  You’ll get a lot done while maintaining a very pleasant mood. Early Friday morning the lovely Libra Moon gets a big smile from Venus, her muse, and your mind is on relationships.  Just in time to explore your deepest wants and needs under the pull of Saturday night’s Full Scorpio Moon.

Messages in the midst of a great awakening

We’re like the hidden butterfly, pushing against our tight cocoons, compelled to break through to the light and see where this metamorphosis is taking us.

Winged Mercury, who carries messages to and from the underworld, is delivering clues all week about the big event unfolding on June 24th, when Pluto, creator of metamorphosis, squares off against Uranus, the freedom loving revolutionary.

Feel an urge for freedom? Want to drop what’s weighing you down?
The Force of insight is with you.
Week of April 22, 2012

Aries ♈ (March 20-April 19)
You get a hint this Wednesday about the revolution occurring in your self image and self esteem. You'll find that answers come quickly and are right in front of you as you begin this week. You’ll be grabbing original insights out of the air! Remember, genius is not a matter of speed. At midweek your keen, penetrating mind gets stimulated with new ideas about your career. You may need the restraint of pen and tongue to avoid controversy because you’re not in the mood for diplomacy.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)
Remember, Einstein got some of his best ideas in dreams. Your past experiences and unconscious memories have you making decisions based on feeling rather than logic. Normally this might not appeal to you, but it’s part of your developing transformation. On Wednesday you receive a message that changes your point of view, and turns your thinking around about a long-held belief that now needs refurbishing.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)
Your friends will be a strong influence in coloring your communications this week. Your love of truth is sparked by lightning bolts of originality, and you investigate rather than just accept the ideas presented to you. Keep an open mind on Wednesday, and don’t waste your time trying to win someone over to your your point of view. You get clues to the revolutionary transformation you’re undergoing by being a broad-minded detective who refuses superficial explanations.

Cancer (June 21-July 21)
The tension of a fast paced start to your week may cause you to want to run away! It’s not an easy time for your sensitivity, so keep your heart off your sleeve. Wednesday you get a message about your life direction, yet it will sound like a swarm of bees! Thursday the Moon slips into Cancer, and immediately gets in a scuffle with sizzling lightning bolt Uranus. You’ll want to take it easy but circumstances will set the pace too high. By Friday your emotions take a deep dive, and you can sense the real truth behind events.

Leo (July 22-August 22)
Sunday starts your week with a fresh round of innovation at high speed. Fire meets fire and your thoughts combust. If you curb your enthusiasm, just a little, you’ll have creativity with practical feet. Midweek has a challenge for you in the way you communicate at work. You need to be as straightforward as possible, really telling it like it is. Just don’t expect agreement. The week ends on Saturday with the Moon gaining self-confidence when she walks on stage in Leo at 9:11 AM, PDT. You’ll feel like roaring.

Virgo (August 23-September 22)
A tense start to the week for your down-to-earth way of being in the world. Fireballs are landing around you, keeping you on your toes--too much so. There are hidden forces at work behind a message you receive this Wednesday. It could bring something to light that will have a profound psychological impact. Children could play an important role in your discovery.

Libra (September 23-October 22)
You’re on fire with creative ideas as you start this week. You’re working on the mysteries of life, and this Wednesday you get a clue! You’re senses will be on high alert, your intellect sharpened. If you find yourself obsessing about minutia, stop. Turn this to introspection for the clue that could change your life. The Moon sparks your curiosity when she climbs the library shelves of Gemini at 10:04 AM, PDT, Monday. She right away gets angry with her man, Mars in Virgo, and sparks are flying by dinner time.

Scorpio (October 23-November 21)
A bit of nervous tension puts you on edge, but alerts you senses for a fast paced week. Avoid becoming obsessed with your point of view when the lord of the underworld sends you a message this Wednesday. Some communications at work could provoke an argument, if you insist on being right. You understand Pluto’s depths better than any other zodiac sign, and what others are afraid to look at, you say “bring it on.” You stare down your fears.

Sagittarius (November 22-December 20)
Your week begins with a brains-on-fire dose of creative impulse. Lots of it. In fact your mental circuits could be so hot you’ll need an extinguisher before your temper explodes. Be cautious on Wednesday when you’ll be tempted to lock into your opinions, and you could provoke an argument. You’re tuned into the messages, just don’t try to convince someone else that your are right. You’ll be especially energized on Saturday when the Moon in Leo wakes you up to a broader vision of your life.

Capricorn (December 21-January 19)
Sunday’s Taurus Moon shines some good fortune your way and saves you from the rapid fire energy all around you. Your generous spirit puts you in the mood to help others, but remember to put your oxygen mask on first! Wednesday brings you a message about the new road you’re to travel on when Pluto, the power underneath life transformations, causes a shift in your thinking. You, more than any other zodiac sign, are certain to emerge from your restrictive cocoon with big, beautiful wings.

Aquarius (January 20-February 17)
A passionate start to your week has you running in spurts, inspired and even obsessed with doing the right thing. Don't get lost in the details and forget to check your horizons. Midweek will find you preoccupied with messages or ideas that don’t really interest you, so let them pass by. Hidden aspects of life will reveal themselves if you refuse to accept things at face value.

Pisces (February 18-March 19)
Sunday morning wakes you up to a lovely feeling of inner peace as Jovial Jupiter shows you the happier side of life. Keep this spiritual respite in mind as this 90 mph week gets started. This Wednesday you can look for a message from a friend that transforms the way you see your resources. Something covert comes to light because you insist on knowing the full depth of the issue.

The seeds of Aries find Taurus' rich soil

It’s time to find your place on the planet, dig in, and take responsibility from there. Sunday sobers us up to the need for some serious structure to the zillion brains-on-fire ideas popping out of Aries.

Monday, Mental Mercury, already in forward gear, shifts into Aries at 3:42 PM, PDT, and the race is on! The messenger planet is speeding toward a head-on collision with Uranus, the god of lightning, on April 22nd.

There’s emotional fuel on the fire when the Moon joins the race Wednesday morning as she rockets into Aries. She meets up with Mental Mercury for a quick lunch-on-the-run, then zips ahead to catch Uranus for an electrifying evening.

You get your finger out of the light socket on Thursday when the Sun glides into steady Taurus 9:12 AM, PDT, on the way to a rendezvous with the Moon. Saturday’s New Moon in Taurus at 12:20 AM, PDT, puts practical feet on those big ideas you spawned in Aries. A Golden Triangle of realism-action-transformation empower money-wise choices and growth of your resources.

The Force of just-do-it is with you.
Here’s your forecast for the week of April 15, 2012...

Aries (March 20-April 19)
The week builds toward a communications collision that brings you rapid intuitive flashes. Your capacity to think with greater objectivity does not come with aurtomatic focus. You’ll need funbreaks to decompress or you’ll feel like an energizer bunny doing hip hop! Static cling disappears on Thursday when the Sun leaves your sign for the Rock of Gibraltar practicality of Taurus. Though not your favorite thing, you have the patience now to complete some of those grand projects.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)
You might feel like a tornado is about to touch down and blow the lid on those opinions you’d rather keep to yourself. But don’t hide in the storm cellar! It’s actually important for you to say what needs to be said and keep things out in the open. Use the lightning bolts of surprise ideas to broaden your spiritual life through meditation. Thursday you shine when the Sun comes to earth in Taurus at 9:12 AM, PDT. You wake in a bed of four leaf clover on Saturday for the New Moon in your sign. Bet on your resources to flourish.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)
Your muse, Mental Mercury, moves out of murky waters and into the clarity of fiery Aries on Monday. Your mind flashes on your life goals, and insights about your expectations build throughout the week. The rapid fire pace of messages and ideas get some organization on Thursday, heading for the Taurus New Moon on Saturday. Which of your many resources need fertile new soil? Announce your intentions.

Cancer (June 21-July 21)
The buzz in your mind this week may keep you on edge, but it has a call to action for your ambitions. Perhaps pushing you out of a comfort zone with a few out-of-the-blue surprises. You’re getting celestial help to decide what you really need. When the Sun moves into earthy Taurus on Thursday, you get practical help from a friend. Unexpected new resources come your way with the New Moon on Saturday morning.

Leo (July 22-August 22)
When the messenger planet roars into Aries on Monday, your eagerness for knowledge and new approaches will gain momentum into next week. Flashes of new insights light up your mind. Careful listening makes this a great week for conversations, travel, and dealings with foreign goods. Irritability and the need for restraint of pen and tongue are a background noise, especially Friday.

Virgo (August 23-September 22)
Communications become very profound for you this week--nothing superficial. You want to get to the bottom of things, even usually closeted issues like mortality. You find you can connect with the mind of another and affect them tremendously. Ease and comfort come your way on Thursday when the Sun shifts to Taurus, on his way to a sweetly sensuous New Moon in the wee hours of Saturday morning.

Libra (September 23-October 22)
Sunday’s Aries Sun presents you with a challenge in relationships by laying stress on the contrasts and differences. You can decide they’re unbridgeable, or you can focus on the common ground that integrate the two. Communications with partners will be loaded with sudden insights and surprising new innovations when Mental Mercury catches fire on Monday. The brilliant clarity of your thinking gathers momentum throughout the week, helping you reach more objective solutions that you couldn’t see before now.

Scorpio (October 23-November 21)
Sunday’s to-do list is just the structure for your day that helps you hone your magic as a bee charmer. The week is buzzing with impulsive, jump-to-conclusions temptations from Messenger Mercury’s move into fiery Aries. Keep your famous cool head and count to ten until Wednesday when the Taurus Sun arrives and begins to sweeten your relationships. The New Moon in Taurus on Saturday is perfect for a new start with your finances, allocating your resources wisely.

Sagittarius (November 22-December 20)
When the Aries Sun sets up an opposition to Serious Saturn on Sunday, you feel a tug-a-war between dutifulness and authenticity. You’re willing to accept your responsibilities, but not at the expense of being authentically true to yourself. The pace of your thoughts pick up on Monday when the messenger planet sets fire to your creativity and mental agility. This builds throughout the week with increasing “aha” experiences, helping you make it clear to others exactly where you stand.

Capricorn (December 21-January 19)
You’ll feel a natural desire to get away from it all beginning Monday when your thinking turns to personal matters. It’s not that you’re trying to avoid confrontation at home, but rather you’d like time to think things over. Intuitive flashes of past events are your mind’s way of bridging gaps in your understanding. The tempo of communications picks up steam throughout the week--pace yourself. You may feel a little irritable by Friday, so practice restraint of pen and tongue. Luckily the shift into the steadiness of Taurus Sun and Moon occurs midweek, giving your determination to succeed some new shoes.

Aquarius (January 20-February 17)
Sunday has an orderly peace about it when the Aquarius Moon brings you an emotional experience of actually transcending the battleground. This is your week for intensity and volume in communications, particularly with relatives and close neighbors. Ideas and messages start flying when Mental Mercury comes ashore in Fiery Aries on Monday, building toward a whirlwind of epiphanies by Saturday. You’ll feel unplugged and strangely stable when the Taurus Sun and Moon sit patiently in your home beginning Wednesday around 8:59 AM, PDT. New Moon, new beginnings.

Pisces (February 18-March 19)
The Moon sails into the deep waters of your soft-hearted Pisces at 10:38 PM, PDT, Sunday, and then conjuncts visionary Neptune in the wee hours of Monday morning. Put a Dream Catcher by your bed. Although the busyness of impatient ideas laced with flashes of brilliance are the background noise for the week, you’re on your way to a resourceful new beginning with the Taurus New Moon on Saturday. Taurus loves to collect...everything! Not just money. Luckily, this bull also accumulates the good things of life!

Friday the 13th can be your lucky day

On Friday the 13th Mighty Mars finishes the indoor remodeling project that began January 23rd, and heads straight for the door! He’s locked and loaded on the May 16th blast site, where he’ll help us blow away obstacles that have held us back.

We’ve been moving and remodeling our homes and offices and jobs, laying the groundwork to transform our lives. Work that has been “on hold” or slow to materialize since January will now go forward.

The Force of moving is with you.
April 7th through April 14th, 2012

Aries (March 20-April 19)
The Sagittarius Moon has you enthusiastically jumping to brilliant conclusions Monday morning, beginning at 8:13 AM, PDT. You’re a straight shooter, headed swiftly into the work week. Mars, the action giant, has relentlessly cleaned out your files and rearranged your office. He's fueled your desire to be of service. You’re ready.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)
You’ve had a subtle pull on your desire to transform your world for some time now, since the Plutonian Darth Vader entered Capricorn. This week that pull becomes an internal urge to reassess your inner needs. It’s easy to do that now, before the late June pinnacle shifts the ground beneath you. Now Mars has finished setting up your easel, building your dark room, and stocking up your paint box. Create! Show yourself!

Gemini (May 21-June 20)
Curious Venus in Gemini brings you some needed excitement when she joins in a friendly debate with the god of lightning early in the week. You didn’t really want to stick to your routine anyway! Mighty Mars has been working in your home, and although the paint may not be dry, it’s time to open the front door and let life in.

Cancer (June 21-July 21)
Clarity is the keyword for your week. Your mood is open-hearted and benevolent as you start your Sunday morning. This feel-good note lifts your spirits even higher when Mental Mercury helps you get absolutely clear about what you want to say. The warrior planet Mars has been at work in your 3rd house of communications, stirring your curiosity and desire to learn new things. Your determination is the stuff heros are made of.

Leo (July 22-August 22)
You hit the decks running this Monday morning when the Moon jumps into fiery Sagittarius, promoting an honest and straightforward agenda for the week. Make sure you have a productive outlet for all that energy! The action planet, Mars, may have tested your patience with his methodicalness, but now he’s lined up your resources, balanced your checking, and has you ready to invest. The project on your storyboard since January is ready for completion.

Virgo (August 23-September 22)
Since Darth Vader has been wandering through Capricorn, you’ve been gently called to face a side of yourself previously unseen. Now, Vader’s backing off for the next four months, giving you time to reassess what you want to make of your life. You have the wind in your sails from action-oriented Mars in Virgo, who’s been helping you remodel your self esteem. Now the “facelift” is complete and you’re ready to express who you truly are to the world. Trust it.

Libra (September 23-October 22)
Start your week with stimulating fling! Venus has pleasantly charged the atmosphere around you, helping you attract new friends by showing an unusual and fascinating side of yourself. Warrior Mars in Virgo has been remodeling your hopes, dreams and wishes. When Mars marches through the 12th house of the unconscious mind, he flushes out the red thread tying you to everyone you need to meet. If you don’t have what you want, it’s not that you’ve failed. It just means you need a new plan. Start a Vision board.

Scorpio (October 23-November 21)
Sunday morning’s Scorpio Moon helps herself to a big bowl of benevolent feelings. You could bet carried away, promising more that you can deliver, but your kindnesses to others are genuine and a great way to start your week. The action hero, Mighty Mars, has been remodeling your friendships to bring to you people who are more in line with your ideals and humanitarian goals. Now that Mars is marching straight ahead, you may find yourself in a new, more stimulating group. Any projects you’ve started with or for a group will come together almost effortlessly.

Sagittarius (November 22-December 20)
Monday morning you burst into action on the shoulders of the fiery Sagittarius Moon’s enthusiasm. This gets your week off to a busy start, but it suits you. Zeal is your keyword for this week. Warrior Mars has been organizing and restructuring your ambitions in your 10th house of career. The prep work is done. Step by step you are ready to climb the ladder of success. Freestyle!

Capricorn (December 21-January 19)
Pluto in Capricorn, the deep push for transforming your life that you’ve been feeling for some time, is taking a lengthy time-out to reassess the truth. Instead of a push, you’ll now feel the pull of your internal desires. Don’t ignore your feelings, particularly this Wednesday when the Moon slides into your sign. The relentless builder, Mars in Virgo, has added new books to your library and put your philosophy of life in order. Knowledge from the realms of the Higher Mind is yours for the taking.

Aquarius (January 20-February 17)
An unusual relationship, that is free of possessiveness or jealousy, will revolutionize your life in some way. Intellectual Venus in Gemini stimulates your understanding of people’s insecurities, as well as your own, and opens you up to live with less structure. The aggressive warrior planet Mars has been remodeling your 8th house of death and rebirth, just in time for the new life of spring and passover and easter. You’re doing this deep work with the precision of a skilled shaman. Heal and be healed.

Pisces (February 18-March 19)
Sunday morning’s Scorpio Moon raises your desire for personal freedom and a little elbow room. Messenger Mercury, still in your sign all week, helps you make intimate and friendly alliances, guaranteeing some peace and understanding to start your week. The methodical work of warrior Mars in your 7th house of partnerships has renovated old belief systems and prepared you to broaden your concepts of sharing, of marriage, of how relationships work for you. Now you can get the contract signed, sealed and delivered.

Death and resurrection is Pluto's theme

We’re now on approach for one of the most significant astrological events of this year, and several years to come. June 24, 2012, is the pinnacle of the first of seven squares between transformational Pluto in Capricorn and revolutionary Uranus in Aries, lasting through 2015.

This creates an uncomfortable tension that forces a primal, revolutionary transformation, like the Phoenix dying to the old to be born anew, arising on wings of faith. Like the Phoenix, we are choosing our destiny.

When squares occur in fire signs (Aries, Leo, Sagittarius) it's like a flashpoint. In earth signs (Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn) it’s like the sudden release of tectonic tension, creating seismic waves.

Therefore, the tense square we’re feeling now between Pluto in earthy Capricorn, and Uranus in fiery Aries, is like the flashpoint for tectonic tension. We are changing our world, at depth.
The Force of resurrection is with you.
Here’s your forecast for the first week in April...

Aries (March 20-April 19)
Harmony from the Sunday morning Moon in your fiery friend Leo, starts your week on just the right note of growing awareness. The fog burns off your thinking and communicating when Messenger Mercury ends his three weeks in retreat on Wednesday. The right answers just come. Tuesday the goddess of love begins an extraordinarily long stay with your compatible neighbor, Gemini. Being in love was never so easy! And for Aries who are lucky enough to have their birthday this week, the Libra Full Moon on Friday adds grace, love, and a preference for peace. Happy, happy birthday.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)
Jupiter in your sign continues to urge you to travel and expand your horizons. This is made easier for you when Messenger Mercury ends a three week sleep and wakes up in Pisces on Wednesday. Your options become clear and your decisions easier. Activity escalates on the way to Friday’s Full Moon in Libra, which could stir up some relationship “issues” at work. You’d be better off taking a vacation! The week ends on a note of grace, gratitude and the transformation of life through death and rebirth.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)
On Tuesday at 8:18 AM, PDT, Venus begins and extended stay (until August 7th) in your sign, filling your life with love and beauty in assorted flavors. Just as you’re social butterfly emerges, the all-about-relationships Libra Full Moon occurs in your house of romance on Friday at around noon. The fog lifts and bloopers are over in your work communications on Wednesday. It’s a time of resurrection of your true self. Bright, witty, free, and an inspiring friend.

Cancer (June 21-July 21)
You’re going to be very tempted to retreat into your shell when the pace picks up this week on the way to the Full Moon in Libra on Friday at 12:19 PM, PDT. The Leo Moon on Sunday morning sets the bar high for activity, but also enthusiasm about life. Try to focus on the latter. That foggy feeling in your brain gets little help when the Moon moves into your compatible sign, Virgo, on Tuesday morning. Too many daydreams from the deep waters of Neptune. But at noon on Wednesday this begins to shift when Messenger Mercury finally comes out of his underwater cave in Pisces and smells the clear spring air. Communications are back on track, just in time to practice forgiveness, make a gratitude list, and tell several someones that you love them.

Leo (July 22-August 22)
You get a zesty start to this celebratory week when the Moon rolls into Leo in the wee hours of Sunday morning and almost immediately fuels up with lightning strikes. Tuesday the goddess of love moves into curious Gemini, spicing up your creativity and love life for the next four months. Your excitement about life grows throughout the week, on your way to the Friday Full Moon in fair-handed Libra at 12:19 PM, PDT. It’s a culminating harvest of loving relationships that beautifully ushers in Passover and Easter as time for gratitude and resurrection of hope.

Virgo (August 23-September 22)
The first week of springtime April is loaded with shifts and turns in your relationships and a bit of a roller coaster ride in your changing moods. A tense start yields to a sense of well-being when the Moon walks into Virgo 6:43 AM, PDT, Tuesday. But don’t expect the easy precision you’re used to, because a fog still clouds your thinking until Wednesday, when Mental Mercury wakes from his three week sleep. Decisions and communications are restored, which will help you manage the pull to balance the peace-at-any-price Libra Full Moon at noon on Friday. Peace does actually come with the Scorpio Moon on Saturday. Perfect for this time of the resurrection of hope.

Libra (September 23-October 22)
Your week is on an escalating path of creative self-expression into Friday’s Full Moon in Libra at 12:19 PM, PDT. Your focus is on the balance, or lack thereof, of give and take in relationships. Today’s Leo Moon triggers a show of affection in your 11th house of friendships. Luckily your thoughts begin to clear on Wednesday when Mercury comes out of his cave after over 3 weeks of miscommunications and misunderstandings. You have an electric shine on your relationships--you’ll surprise yourself with what you see.

Scorpio (October 23-November 21)
You continue to have “lucky” opportunities, but in spite of the expansion of your horizons you may be tempted to feel discouraged. Life is making a lot of daily demands, especially in your relationships, that will reach a climax on this Friday’s Full Moon in fair-minded Libra. You’ll notice a lifting of the veil as mental clarity and easier communications are restored Wednesday when Messenger Mercury wakes up from a three week coma. You can act decisively on creative ideas that have eluded definition until now. This week ends with celebrated symbols of blessings, gratitude and resurrection, all of which fall into place for you under Saturday’s Scorpio Moon.

Sagittarius (November 22-December 20)
Firecrackers start your week on a big-hearted note, aimed toward waking you up to more loving relationships on the way to the Libra Full Moon on Friday. Fairness and a graceful even-handed calm can transform the way you relate to others. Although the tempo remains fast, you’ll see things more clearly beginning Wednesday when the fog lifts from your reasoning mind. Venus makes a big move to airy Gemini on Tuesday, fanning your flames of romance and creativity until August 7th. This week is a harvest time for you to know where you stand with significant others in your life, and to usher in a time of egalitarian friendship.

Capricorn (December 21-January 19)
There’s a lot brewing on the relationship front as you try to make sense of culminating “issues” on the way to the Libra Full Moon on Friday at 12:19 PM, PDT. You can expect clarity and a sense of moving forward again on Wednesday when the communications planet wakes from his sleep in Pisces. Common sense in love may still elude you as Venus moves into spicey, don’t-fence-me-in Gemini on Tuesday. Look for reasons to forgive, everyone, and hope of love without judgement to be resurrected.

Aquarius (January 20-February 17)
Your relationships get an affectionate boost as the week begins with lion-hearted feelings. You will feel even more social and friendly to everyone when the goddess of love trips the light fantastic into Gemini, your favorite intellectual twin, on Tuesday morning at 8:18 AM, PDT. The tempo escalates daily, challenging you to keep your balance on a roller coaster ride to Friday’s Full Moon in fair-minded Libra. The fuzzy communications that have stressed you for three weeks begin to clear up Wednesday. The ideas that were forming in your internal dialogue bear fruit and your resources grow.

Pisces (February 18-March 19)
Put on your dancing shoes to start your week under the dramatic Leo Moon. On Tuesday the usually precise Moon in Virgo has you in a fuzzy, foggy mood, just so you’ll appreciate the clarity that’s on it’s way. Your tongue unties itself on Wednesday around noon when the god of communications emerges from his cave. Mercury is still swimming in your sign, so ideas that have been brewing for over three weeks will find poetic expression. Relationships are your focus throughout the week, building to a busy he-said she-said Libra Full Moon on Friday at 12:19 PM, PDT. Relief and relaxation come with the Scorpio Moon on Saturday at 8:18 AM, underscoring your need for forgiveness and resurrection.
