April 11-18, 2005

We continue in Aries, the passion of early spring. Late Monday night the mental tide completes a few weeks of internalizing (Mercury retrograde) and begins to flow forward and outward again. The moon (heart spirit) is in Gemini, the mental and verbal activity at the top of our seasonal roller coaster.

Action (Mars) is meeting dreams (Neptune) at the midpoint of winter (Aquarius), the peak of alignment at the center of awareness. The sun (vitality) in Aries (initiating passion) is blending with Pluto (power) in Sagittarius (resolving passion). We are feeling a connection between spring energy and the pull of deep transformation.

Thursday the moon goes over the top of our seasonal cycle into Cancer, the release of flowing feeling. On the weekend it progresses into Leo, the radiant peak passion of midsummer. With a core of activated deep feeling in awareness (Mars and Neptune together in Aquarius) fed by expansiveness in love (Juptier in Libra), the power of spring now breaks out into demonstrative expression.
