Thursday 4/25/13--full moon

The mid-spring full moon. Sun in Taurus, solid with the power of the earth, Moon full in Scorpio, the magnetic intensity of spirit (12:57pm PDT). We are charged up and ready for flowering expression.

Monday 4/15/13

On Friday 4/12, heavy Pluto went retrograde in grounding Capricorn, anchoring us in the primal power at the bottom of things, our core needs.

The Sun is meeting Mars in Aries (Wednesday 5:20pm PDT), activating the fire of self. The Moon, after a few days in mental Gemini, goes into Cancer, the release of flowing feeling, Monday night (7:49pm PDT), reaching peak passion Leo by the end of the week. We are moving from early spring emergence, Aries, into peak spring physicality, Taurus.

On May 20, a rare alignment of major forces--Uranus in Aries square Pluto in Capricorn--reaches the second of four forward pulses between 2012-2015 (last happened in 1167 BC). At a time of intensified sensitivity (Saturn in Scorpio, Neptune in Pisces, Jupiter into Cancer 6/25), deep nature power is energizing revolutionary development on this planet. It will be breaking through the tension of control with the imperatives of true humanity.

Wednesday 4/10/13--Aries new moon

The first new moon of spring. Passionate self, energized with deep nature power, activated into new expression. Intensified sensitivity, creative mentality.

(Sun, Moon, Venus, Mars, Uranus in Aries square Pluto in Capricorn. Saturn in Scorpio trine Neptune, Chiron, Mercury in Pisces. Jupiter in Gemini.)

Friday 4/5/13

Though physically we've moved into a highly energized spring (Sun with Venus meeting Mars in Aries), spirit is finishing up old business, moving through isolation in our essence (Moon in Aquarius), into tender sensitivity for the weekend (Moon into Pisces Saturday).

Heart joins soul in passionate emergence Monday (Moon into Aries 12:02pm PDT), the first new moon of spring there Wednesday (Aries new moon 2:35am PDT), powerful new developments activated with the force of nature.

Tuesday 4/2/13

In a time of emotional sensitivity and big mentality, activated personal passion is energized with primal power.

(Sun with Uranus, Mars and Venus in Aries, Moon with Pluto in Capricorn. Saturn in Scorpio, Neptune, Chiron and Mercury in Pisces. Jupiter in Gemini.)
