Our Creative Core is Awakened<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"This<\/strong> week\u2019s headline items<\/strong>: the Super Full Moon in Scorpio<\/b> becomes exact on Monday very late evening; Pluto comes to a halt, starting its 5-month Retrograde phase on Tuesday afternoon.<\/p>\n

There will be four Moon VoC<\/a> phases this week: Monday morning (for a little over 3.5 hours), Wednesday morning (for a little over 3 hours), Friday late morning (for almost 3 hours), and Sunday late morning (for almost 5 hours).<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Before we get to this week\u2019s forecast, let me make a quick announcement:<\/h3>\n

If you missed my Forecasting Forum last week<\/strong>\u2026 and still would like to learn how to align yourself with <\/strong>the current Pluto Station phase<\/em> in Capricorn<\/strong>\u2026 feel free to watch the mp4-video presentation about “<\/em>Pluto Station-Retrograde April-May 2021″<\/em> — as it relates to your own Birth Chart…<\/p>\n

Star Members:<\/strong> check your email for the link to the mp4-video recording and enjoy watching it! I sent it out on April 23rd late evening \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Now, this week\u2019s Forecast\u2026<\/strong><\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

Monday, April 26th:<\/h3>\n

Monday, <\/b>the Moon remains in harmony-loving, balance-seeking <\/i>Libra. <\/i><\/b>It will journey there until 12:18pm EDT<\/b>. The energy of the Libra<\/b> Moon helps us be naturally courteous and diplomatic; we are more polite at this time, as we seek the approval of others.<\/p>\n

We very much want to maintain equal, fair relationships at this time, and are therefore open to making compromises and negotiating. Until this early afternoon will be a great time for mediation — but our need for peace and accompanying aversion to direct conflict could pull us to “yes” more easily than we might like.<\/p>\n

We may also be able see both sides of the equation so well that we can’t make decisions. As best as you can, find an inner balance with this and communicate what needs to be said with grace and charm — even if it’s “No” \ud83d\ude09 One last quick note: this is also a great time for anything to do with visual arts.<\/p>\n

Monday at 8:40am EDT<\/b>, we enter a Moon VoC<\/span><\/a> that will last for a little over 3.5 hours, until 12:18pm EDT.\u00a0 <\/span><\/b>Use this intuitive time as an opportunity to connect with like-minded people, expand each other’s minds, and collaborate in a way that allows you to see the bigger picture.<\/p>\n

As always with a\u00a0Moon VoC<\/span><\/a>, as best as you can, don’t start anything brand-new, stick to routine things, or simply go with the flow. You may also want to plan Monday morning until the early afternoon ahead of time.<\/p>\n

Monday at 12:18pm EDT, <\/b>the Moon moves into passionate, all-or-nothing <\/i>Scorpio<\/i><\/b>, where it will journey until Wednesday late morning\/early afternoon<\/b>. Emotional authenticity is extremely important to us at this time; anything less than 100% emotional honesty could be perceived as flat-out dishonest. Once we feel safe trusting someone, we want to merge with them, preferably forever… as long as our trust is never betrayed.<\/p>\n

The Moon in\u00a0Scorpio<\/b>\u00a0urges us to uncover our own power. This occurs by a process of subtraction — it urges us to let go of whatever disempowers us. It’s therefore an excellent time to look at “old” fears, limiting habits or emotional attachments, especially those stemming from past traumas.<\/p>\n

Moon in\u00a0Scorpio<\/b>\u00a0tends to run right over ambiguity — it’s “in or out”, “with us or against us”, “love me or leave me”. It can therefore be stormy — a cold winter storm, or a torrid tropical storm of passion, depending on how we “work” the energies \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

Manipulation and paranoia are the lower vibrations of this aspect, so\u00a0as best you can, be straightforward — act in good faith and assume it in others. Best of all, be truly present to the fluctuations of your feelings — no matter if they’re “polite” or “timely”. Feelings aren’t facts, but they are information — and heeding them will help you embrace all of who you are.<\/p>\n

Know thyself — and love thyself — you shall be set free. Remember: Love connects us to the Power within; Fear causes “Force” to show up — and that’s ultimately what disempowers us and others. This Moon placement also starts the build up towards the Super Full Moon (exact tonight<\/em>).<\/p>\n

Monday very late evening, at 11:32pm EDT<\/b>,\u00a0the Full Moon in 7 degrees of\u00a0<\/i>Scorpio<\/i><\/b>\u00a0becomes exact. The Moon in passionate, all-or-nothing Scorpio<\/b> opposes the Sun in steady, peaceful Taurus<\/b>.<\/p>\n

This Full Moon has heightened\u00a0effects on us for two important reasons<\/strong>: first, it is a “Super Full Moon<\/em>” (i.e. the Moon is at its closest distance to the Earth) — in fact, it is the first of three Super Full Moons<\/em> in a row!\u00a0Secondly, Pluto, the ruler of Scorpio, is exalted,<\/em> preparing to go Retrograde at 26.5\u00ba of Capricorn<\/strong> — less than 24 hours after the Full Moon becomes exact! All of this could increase emotional volatility but could also facilitate larger shifts in consciousness.<\/p>\n

There are lots of other aspects<\/strong> worth mentioning in this Full Moon chart: a Stellium in Taurus<\/em>, a T-Square with Saturn as the Focus point<\/em> — and we will address all of them in a moment. If you are currently a Member of my online community, feel free to also watch my Super Full Moon video here.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

I should also mention that we focused on Pluto’s powerful involvement with this month’s Super Full Moon chart,<\/em> as it relates to our own individual birth charts, in our recent Forecasting Forum “Pluto Station-Retrograde, April-May 2021″<\/em>: click here<\/strong> for more info and to get the mp4-video presentation of the live event. <\/a><\/p>\n

This Full Moon shows us how far we have come, as well as\u00a0what we must still release or transform, if we are to manifest what was begun at the time of the New Moon that occurred on\u00a0April 11th.<\/p>\n

For the next two weeks<\/strong>, we seek the balance and integration of two polarities, and are aware that something needs to be brought into alignment.\u00a0The balance in question is between our physical attachments, aversions, and connections — symbolized by\u00a0Taurus<\/strong>— and our emotional attachments, aversions, and connections (Scorpio<\/strong>).<\/p>\n

The time of the Full Moon is always more extroverted and emotional. This particular one invites us to let go of fears or disempowering behaviors, and thereby break through to the next level of our evolution, individually and collectively.<\/p>\n

So, here’s this Full Moon’s central question: <\/strong>As a society, are we living in alignment with our values, with what makes us happy and satisfied? How about as individuals? Do we feel empowered and emotionally fulfilled? Are there any fears in our way to achieving progress? Or any rigid thought processes? All right, let’s look at the signs involved in this polarity,… To read the whole Full Moon article, and get all the Coaching questions, click here<\/strong>.<\/a><\/p>\n

Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in 5-9 degrees of\u00a0<\/i>Scorpio, Taurus, Leo, <\/i><\/b>or<\/i>\u00a0 Aquarius<\/i><\/b>? If so, you are more affected by this month’s Full Moon. This is also true for those of us who have our\u00a0Ascendant\u00a0or Sun-sign in\u00a0<\/i>Leo<\/i><\/b>\u00a0or\u00a0<\/i>Cancer<\/i><\/b>\u00a0(the Sun rules Leo; the Moon rules Cancer).<\/i><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Tuesday, April 27th:<\/h3>\n

Tuesday<\/strong>, the Moon remains in passionate, all-or-nothing Scorpio<\/strong><\/em> all day<\/strong> (see Monday early afternoon for details).<\/p>\n

Tuesday very early morning<\/strong>, we are invited to make some inner adjustments: we feel uneasy or awkward, and need to make a choice — a choice that demands we develop inner awareness around two very different urges: On the one hand, we have the urge to go deeper and connect with others; on the other hand,\u00a0we are more aware of triggers and limitations connected to old childhood wounds.<\/p>\n

As best as you can, be compassionate and understanding with yourself when feelings of anger come up (and even if shame follows expressions of that anger). Ask yourself: How might 5% more compassion support my relationship with myself and others today? (Moon in Scorpio<\/strong> quincunxes Chiron in Aries<\/strong>, exact at 4:54am EDT<\/em>)<\/p>\n

Tuesday morning:<\/strong>\u00a0we feel a need to focus on our commitments to our online and local communities, but also a need for deep, authentic — even intimate — connections to others. As best as you can, make adjustments and watch out for becoming rigid, stressed, or anxious. Ask yourself: What if I took just 5% of the pressure off? What if I approached my connections out there in the world 5% less seriously? (Moon in Scorpio<\/strong> squares Saturn in Aquarius<\/strong>, exact at 8:47am EDT<\/em>)<\/p>\n

Tuesday afternoon<\/strong>, at 4:04pm EDT,<\/strong> Pluto comes to a halt in 26.5\/almost 27 degrees of <\/i>Capricorn<\/i><\/b>, starting its 5-month Retrograde phase<\/em> (until Oct. 6th<\/b>). Pluto’s energy will continue to move more slowly, and therefore more exalted, until May 12th.<\/b><\/p>\n

When an outer planet stops, its energy gets more pronounced; we become more aware of its impact on us — and this can sometimes cause discomfort. We are being asked to hang out with that discomfort until the planet’s energy has picked up speed again (around May 12th<\/b>).<\/p>\n

During the Retrograde phase<\/b>, we will have a chance to connect to anything associated with Pluto from within. Pluto is associated with our soul purpose, as well as the process of empowerment — our ability to feel empowered from within — and with our deepest passions. This forces us to see what really motivates us.<\/p>\n

For the next 5 months<\/b>, we need to tap into inner authenticity, embracing the entirety of ourselves \u2014 the good, the bad, and the ugly. Paradoxically, this will help us let go of any habits, behaviors or fears that are holding us back from feeling fully empowered from within.<\/p>\n

We are invited to tap into our passion, strength and Soul’s purpose from the inside out. This deeper connection will support us in our journey towards authenticity. We can then build long-term goals that are aligned with our Soul’s purpose. Ask yourself: What do I “just know”, deep down?<\/p>\n

Again, we covered Pluto’s movement,<\/em> as it relates to our own individual birth charts, in our recent Forecasting Forum “Pluto Station-Retrograde, April-May 2021″<\/em>: click here<\/strong> for more info and to get the mp4-video presentation of the live event. <\/a><\/p>\n

Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in 24-29 degrees of <\/i>Capricorn, Cancer, Libra<\/i><\/b> or <\/i>Aries<\/i><\/b>? If so, you will feel this Retrograde phase more strongly. This is also true for those of us who have our Ascendant or Sun-sign in <\/i>Scorpio<\/i><\/b> (Pluto is the ruler of Scorpio).<\/i><\/p>\n

Tuesday late evening<\/strong>, we are likely to experience a sense of ease and flow, but may need to slow down and allow our feelings to come through. A gentle approach is best. We feel good when coming from the heart and making deeper connections with others. Being open to receiving, trusting the process and going with the flow are key! (Moon in Scorpio<\/strong> trines Neptune in Pisces<\/strong>, exact at 11:31pm EDT<\/em>)<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Wednesday, April 28th:<\/h3>\n

Wednesday<\/strong>, the Moon remains in passionate, all-or-nothing Scorpio<\/strong><\/em> until 11:42am EDT<\/b> (see Monday early afternoon for details).<\/p>\n

Wednesday at 8:31am EDT<\/strong>, we enter a Moon VoC<\/span><\/a> that will last for a little over 3 hours, until 11:42am EDT.\u00a0<\/b>Use this intuitive time to make some adjustments in your life and find creative solutions to seemingly unsolvable situations. As best as you can, look to expand your perspectives around any visions and hopes you hold for the future or humanity, and find ways to take care of your need for deeper, more intimate connections.<\/p>\n

As always with a\u00a0Moon VoC<\/span><\/a>, as best as you can, don’t start anything brand-new, stick to routine things, or simply go with the flow. You may also want to plan Wednesday morning until the early afternoon ahead of time.<\/p>\n

Wednesday at 11:42am EDT<\/strong>, the Moon moves into optimistic, adventurous, truth-seeking Sagittarius<\/strong><\/em>, where it will journey until Friday early afternoon<\/strong>. We’re strongly motivated to explore and learn. We’re\u00a0not likely to be big fans of routine — diversity and new adventures work best at this time — we’re also physically restless and need to burn that off with activity and physical exercise.<\/p>\n

We tend to feel more open, optimistic and inspired — but we also have a high degree of independence, which means we’d rather inspire others to do things our way, than take orders.<\/p>\n

Inspiring others could come easier than normal, as we can see the bigger picture, leaving us confident that others will agree with us, once they see what we see. As best as you can, speak your truth without assuming that everyone is on the same page as you.<\/p>\n

Improvisation works well for us at this time, as we are spontaneous and love living on the edge — just watch out you aren’t overdoing or overstating things.<\/p>\n

Wednesday night\/<\/strong>Thursday very early morning, we experience a need for inner adjustments. We feel uneasy or awkward and need to make a choice. Making this choice demands we develop inner awareness around two very different urges: on the one hand, the need to mentally explore and go beyond what we already know \u2014 and on the other hand, the awareness connected to the physical plane, and being grounded in reality. (Moon in Sagittarius<\/strong> quincunxes Sun in Taurus<\/strong>, exact on Thursday at 2:20am EDT<\/em>)<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Thursday, April 29th:<\/h3>\n

Thursday<\/strong>, the Moon remains in optimistic, adventurous, truth-seeking Sagittarius<\/strong><\/em> all day<\/strong> (see Wednesday early afternoon for details).<\/p>\n

Thursday early morning<\/strong>, we experience a need for inner adjustments. We feel uneasy or awkward and need to make a choice. Making this choice demands we develop inner awareness around two very different urges: on the one hand, the desire to mentally explore and go beyond what we already know \u2014 and on the other hand, the need for breakthroughs or change connected to the physical plane.<\/p>\n

We need to ask ourselves here: What might become possible if I got 5% more comfortable with being uncomfortable? Or 5% more comfortable embracing uncertainty? (Moon in Sagittarius<\/strong> quincunxes Uranus in Taurus<\/strong>, exact at 4:38am EDT<\/em>)<\/p>\n

Thursday morning<\/strong>,\u00a0 <\/span>have an opportunity to connect and collaborate with like-minded people, focus on the bigger picture, or simply commit to something that gets us excited about the future. (Moon in Sagittarius<\/strong> sextiles Saturn in Aquarius<\/strong>, exact at 8:36am EDT<\/em>)<\/p>\n

Thursday early evening<\/strong>, we experience a need for inner adjustments. We feel uneasy or awkward and need to make a choice. Making this choice demands we develop inner awareness around two very different urges: on the one hand, the desire to mentally explore and go beyond what we already know \u2014 and on the other hand, the need for material and physical beauty. (Moon in Sagittarius<\/strong> quincunxes Venus in Taurus<\/strong>, exact at 5:44pm EDT<\/em>)
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

Thursday late evening<\/strong>, an opportune Mercury\/Neptune aspect<\/em> becomes exact at 10:27pm EDT. We started to feel this aspect from Wednesday night on; it will be strong until Friday night. <\/b>This aspect gives us the opportunity to bring compassion and an intuitive approach to our thinking process.<\/p>\n

Having faith and connecting to our Higher Selves will be of service to us at this time. Any artistic or spiritual endeavors are likely to do well at this time. Music might help us with our thinking process and ability to get things done.<\/p>\n

Let yourself be inspired! A book, a song, a movie, someone else’s words\u2026 allow the Universe to speak to you. Open your mind to a higher vibration — and remember, opportunities are openings… they aren’t necessarily handed to us… we have to “take” them and make something of them.<\/p>\n

Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or any personal planets) in 20-24 degrees of <\/i>Taurus, Pisces, Capricorn<\/i><\/b>\u00a0or\u00a0<\/i>Cancer<\/i><\/b>? If so, you may be more aware of this opportunity. This\u00a0is also true for those of us who have our\u00a0Ascendant\u00a0or Sun-sign in\u00a0<\/i>Gemini, Virgo<\/i><\/b>\u00a0or\u00a0<\/i>Pisces<\/i><\/b>\u00a0(Mercury is the ruler of Gemini and Virgo; Neptune rules Pisces).<\/i><\/p>\n

Thursday late evening<\/strong>, we may need to make some adjustments again. As best you can, honor both your need for adventure and exploration of life and your need to go within. You may feel a pull between introvert and extrovert, or simply fast and slow. Tune in for a moment and see if you need to take a break or at least slow down a little. As best as you can, be compassionate and kind with yourself. (Moon in Sagittarius<\/strong> squares Neptune in Pisces<\/strong>, exact at 11:42pm EDT<\/em>)<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Friday, April 30th:<\/h3>\n

Friday<\/strong>, the Moon remains in optimistic, adventurous, truth-seeking Sagittarius<\/strong><\/em> until 12:16pm EDT<\/b> (see Wednesday early afternoon for details).<\/p>\n

Friday at 9:27am EDT<\/strong>, we enter a Moon VoC<\/span><\/a> that will last for almost 3 hours, until 12:16pm EDT.<\/b> Use this intuitive time as an opportunity to connect and collaborate with like-minded people, have an adventure, or simply do something that gets you excited about the future.<\/p>\n

As always with a\u00a0Moon VoC<\/span><\/a>, as best as you can, don’t start anything brand-new, stick to routine things, or simply go with the flow. You may also want to plan Friday late morning until the early afternoon ahead of time.<\/p>\n

Friday at 12:16pm EDT<\/strong>, the Moon moves into practical, accomplishment-oriented Capricorn<\/strong><\/em>, where it will journey until Sunday late morning<\/strong>. We tend to be more realistic, serious, cautious; this can support practical endeavors and financial matters.<\/p>\n

Our ambition surges and brings with it a need for structure and planning; when you add in the pragmatism this aspect supports, you can see how this could be a very productive time for business and long-term goals.\u00a0Our reputation becomes very important to us.<\/p>\n

As best as you can during this aspect, avoid “should-ing” on yourself. Take the pressure off, perhaps by saying “I am doing the best I can and that’s all I can ever do” \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n

Saturn is the ruler of\u00a0Capricorn<\/b> — and is currently transiting through Aquarius<\/b>, making this a great time to take a look at our visions for humanity, and at anything we would like to accomplish long-term within our communities (locally or online).<\/p>\n

It’s also a great time to take a more serious look at our various networks and connections to like-minded people; as best as you can, be authentic about your affiliations: Do they truly resonate with your personal vision for the future — as it stands now, rather than what it was 5 or 10 years ago?<\/p>\n

Does participation in those groups or networks align with who you are now, and with where you see yourself 5 years from now? What do you truly want to commit yourself to?<\/p>\n

Friday afternoon<\/strong>, a Sun\/Uranus alignment in 10.5 degrees of Taurus<\/strong><\/em> becomes exact at 3:54pm EDT. We started to feel this aspect build from this Tuesday evening on; it will remain strong until next week Monday evening <\/b>(May 3rd)<\/span>. <\/b>This alignment brings confidence and a desire to connect with others through a common cause. We may have sudden insights into our friendships — and how they connect us to a bigger vision. We know that if we want to move to the next level, we need to strategize and collaborate with others.<\/p>\n

We are also asked to connect to the unusual. Our creative core is awakened: We feel compelled to express ourselves in unique (or at least unconventional) ways. Our consciousness expands, we are receptive to new ways of thinking, doing, and living; this increased openness to all that is new and different may bring unexpected opportunities.<\/p>\n

Uranus symbolizes the desire for freedom, equality, and progress. Uranus in Taurus<\/b> aligned with the Sun, asks us to break away from whatever keeps us from honoring ourselves. It’s time to develop some awareness around what is genuinely our own values, versus those we may have adopted or inherited.<\/p>\n

Ask yourself:\u00a0What’s mine? What isn’t? What if it were ok to have a different outlook from others, even those we love? What about different values? Could I have some space around this rather than conflict?<\/p>\n

One thing to remember: Keeping the heart and mind open could make a big difference to the experience of this alignment.<\/p>\n

Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in 7-14 degrees of <\/i>Taurus, Scorpio, Leo, <\/i><\/b>or<\/i> Aquarius<\/i><\/b>? If so, you will be more affected by this alignment. This is also true for those of us who have our Ascendant or Sun-sign in <\/i>Leo<\/i><\/b> or <\/i>Aquarius<\/i><\/b> (the Sun rules Leo; Uranus is the ruler of Aquarius)<\/i><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Saturday, May 1st:<\/h3>\n

Saturday<\/strong>, the Moon remains in practical, accomplishment-oriented Capricorn<\/strong><\/em> all day<\/strong> (see Friday early afternoon for details).<\/p>\n

Saturday morning<\/strong>, we are invited to connect with like-minded people, and learn something new about our unique talents or value to the world. We are better able to connect to anything that involves a long-term commitment. We perhaps might also implement revolutionary business practices or government programs that support our values and make life tangibly more enjoyable. (Moon in Capricorn<\/strong> trines Uranus in Taurus<\/strong>, exact at 6:13am EDT<\/em>)<\/p>\n

Also on, Saturday morning<\/strong>, we are invited to make adjustments and find creative solutions to seemingly insoluble situations. As best as you can, make space for looking into some alternative exercise programs or holistic approaches to your personal projects and current long-term commitments. Compassion is key \ud83d\ude09 (Moon in Capricorn<\/strong> squares Chiron in Aries<\/strong>, exact at 6:14am EDT<\/em>)<\/p>\n

Last but not least on Saturday morning:<\/strong> this could be a great time to focus on what’s important to us. Ask yourself: What do I value most about myself? What do I enjoy or appreciate in my life? How can I create long-term goals that align with those values and preferences? (Moon in Capricorn<\/strong> trines Sun in Taurus<\/strong>, exact at 7:12am EDT<\/em>)<\/p>\n

Saturday night<\/strong>\/Sunday very early morning, we are invited to connect with people who share our values. We are better able to connect to anything that involves a long-term commitment. We perhaps might also implement business practices that support our values, create abundance and make life tangibly more enjoyable. (Moon in Capricorn<\/strong> trines Venus in Taurus<\/strong>, exact at 12:42am EDT<\/em>)<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Sunday, May 2nd:<\/h3>\n

Sunday<\/strong>, the Moon remains in practical, accomplishment-oriented Capricorn<\/strong><\/em> until 3:31pm EDT<\/strong> (see Friday early afternoon for details).<\/p>\n

Sunday early morning<\/strong>, a harmonious Mercury\/Pluto aspect<\/em> becomes exact at 5:19am EDT. We started to feel this aspect from this Friday morning on; it will be strong until Monday evening<\/b> (May 3rd).\u00a0Our words and our “speaking” are very grounded and realistic. We can feel really empowered by what we say (and how we say it) during this time.\u00a0Our conviction and passion helps us to connect\u00a0and empower others.<\/p>\n

We are strongly connected to our inner truth and can analyze and understand our motivations toward long-term goals. We investigate our own thoughts in a very realistic way and look to see what needs to be done next.<\/p>\n

Ask yourself: which of my values and preferences support my long-term goals? What — if anything — needs a closer look (and deep honesty with myself) when it comes to my long-term goals or achievements? What needs to be addressed and brought up into full consciousness in order to get to a place of emotional authenticity with myself and the world?<\/p>\n

Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in the following: 24-29 degrees of <\/i>Taurus, Capricorn,\u00a0<\/i><\/b>Virgo, <\/i><\/b>or 0 degrees of Gemini, Aquarius, <\/strong>or Libra<\/strong><\/i>? If so, you will be even more blessed by this aspect than those who do not; this is also true for those of us with our Ascendant or Sun-sign in <\/i>Gemini, Virgo<\/i><\/b>\u00a0or\u00a0<\/i>Scorpio<\/i><\/b>\u00a0(Mercury rules Gemini and Virgo, Pluto rules Scorpio).<\/i><\/p>\n

Sunday at 10:38am EDT<\/strong>, we enter a Moon VoC<\/span><\/a> that will last for almost 5 hours, until 3:31pm EDT. <\/b>Use this intuitive time to connect with people who share your values. Talk about anything that involves a long-term commitment. You perhaps might also want to share about business practices that support your values and make life tangibly more enjoyable.
\n<\/b><\/p>\n

As always with a\u00a0Moon VoC<\/span><\/a>, as best as you can, don’t start anything brand-new, stick to routine things, or simply go with the flow. You may also want to plan Sunday late morning until the afternoon ahead of time.<\/p>\n

Sunday at 3:31pm EDT<\/strong>, the Moon moves into freedom-loving, forward-thinking\u00a0 Aquarius<\/strong><\/em>, where it will journey until next week Tuesday<\/strong> (May 4th). The energy of the Aquarian Moon relates to our instinct for improvement. Reactions are more intellectual than emotional; interactions more impersonal than personal. We are likely to have an increased fascination with the new and unusual.<\/p>\n

Social gatherings, anything connected with group ideals and goals for the future, brainstorming, new ideas and methods, progress: all these are promoted during the time the Moon moves through Aquarius. Again: we have our eyes on the future — or on outer space \ud83d\ude42 Personal freedom becomes paramount.<\/p>\n

Sunday early evening<\/strong>, an opportune Venus\/Neptune aspect<\/em> becomes exact at 6:38pm EDT. We started to feel this aspect build from this Friday evening on; it will remain strong until Tuesday evening <\/b>(May 4th). This is an opportunity for compassion and kindness in our social interactions. We are more attuned to the subtleties of human interaction, and are more inclined to naturally cooperate with others. We tend to “feel” each other on an energetic level now; a sensitive approach is recommended.<\/p>\n

We also have an opportunity to connect to our values and gifts from intuition, and use our imagination to attract what we want: When you daydream, what would you like to experience? How would it feel?<\/p>\n

Remember: opportunities are openings; they aren’t necessarily handed to us — we have to “take” them and make something of them.<\/p>\n

Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or any personal planets) in 20-25 degrees of <\/i>Taurus, Pisces, Capricorn <\/i><\/b>or <\/i>Cancer<\/i><\/b>? If so, you may be more aware of this opportunity. This is also true for those of us who have our Ascendant or Sun-sign in<\/i> Taurus, Libra<\/i><\/b> or<\/i> Pisces<\/i><\/b> (Venus is the ruler of Taurus and Libra; Neptune rules Pisces).<\/i><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

And…<\/h3>\n

A heads up for next Monday (May 3rd):<\/b> the Moon remains in <\/i>Capricorn <\/i>all day<\/b> (see Friday early afternoon for details – April 30th). In the morning<\/strong>, a challenging Mercury\/Jupiter aspect<\/em> becomes exact at 5:33am EDT; we started to feel this aspect build from May 1st on; it will remain strong until May 4th<\/b>. Also, on Monday<\/strong> morning<\/b>, a challenging Sun\/Saturn aspect <\/i>becomes exact at 6:02am EDT; we started to feel this aspect build from April 30th on; it will remain strong until April 6th<\/b>. In the afternoon<\/b>, at 3:50pm EDT<\/b>, the last Quarter Moon<\/i> <\/i><\/b>in <\/i>Aquarius<\/i><\/b> becomes exact. At 10:49pm EDT<\/b>, Mercury changes signs from Taurus to Gemini<\/i>, where it will journey until July 11th. <\/b>More about all the details in next week\u2019s forecast \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
