Mercury retrograde through 25 April
These cosmic waves are most definitely testing patience (give me patience and give it to me now!) and clocking yourself on how seriously you are taking all the minor mishaps, delays, cancellations, techno errors, and general curfuffles that you probably are experiencing with loving joy and merriment from Mercury doing mischief as he moves retrograde in Aries until April 25. If you ever been caught in a rainstorm with an umbrella that turns inside out and now you’re completely soaked to the bone and the umbrella needs to be trashed – all you really can do is laugh. And as soon as you laugh (which could easily turn into hysterical giggles – mine do, for sure) everything gets more tolerable, more acceptable, more life-affirming. And life-affirming is your assignment. I take THAT seriously. What can I do today to affirm LIFE?
Full Moon in Scorpio invites you to take a deep dive into your emotional world, where undoubtedly you will uncover patterns and pearls that have influenced how you experience your present life. Just having those moments of self-awareness, begins the process to discern if these emotional patterns are serving you or not. If not, time to start investigating (Scorpio is the master detective) to find out what you can do to release those from running the show – your show.
This Full Moon makes a really tight square aspect to Pluto at 2 degrees Aquarius. Deep emotional grooves in your personal design will be challenging you to a major overhaul of non-supportive emotional patterns. This reminds me of Anais Nin’s genius “And the day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom.” That’s what I’m saying. For you, in the areas of your chart where you have planets or points in fixed signs between 2 and 4 degrees something deep is stirring from quiet places inside your own consciousness. Interesting to track. And helpful to know what growth spurts are coming your way. You can prepare yourself to be open to the experience.
Mars at 24 degrees Pisces conjoins Neptune at 28 degrees Pisces. And we know Saturn is still in Pisces, now at 16 degrees Pisces. That’s a whole lot of confusion, delusion, and illusion being actively triggered in the collective and perhaps for you personally. It’s really important to stay grounded in these chaotic times. The more grounded you are the more you will inhabit your body, which will help you make good decisions, well better, at the very least.
The Jupiter-Uranus conjunction on April 21st at 21 degrees Taurus precedes the Full Moon by a few days. You may very well have a momentous ah-ha! moment, a breakthrough, an expansion, an epiphany, a revelation, a revolution, an evolutionary step forward. Where this conjunction sits in your chart, and if it triggers planets or points in your chart, will probably be the areas in your life where these shifts in consciousness can occur. And then something is different, better, more aligned with your own personal genius, your own creative energy. Exciting!
