Utilizing astrology for personal development, self understanding and enlightenment.
In astrology, each planet has a very specific function. The Sun, it is 'soul' that transmits an idea to Mercury, which shall forward it to Venus, who feels things. Then Mars puts into action and expresses this idea. Jupiter, in turn, give the expansion, and finally Saturn puts it in place.
Monthly Horoscope for April
The New Moon (first total solar eclipse of 2023) on April 8th occurs in Aries and the Full Moon on April 23rd falls in Scorpio. Mercury travels into Aries and will remain until May 14th (due to his retrograde motion. On April 6th Venus enter into Aries and will remain until April 29th. Mars sails into Pisces until April 30th. Jupiter is in Taurus until May 25. Saturn is in Pisces until February 2026. Uranus is direct in Taurus. Neptune is direct in Pisces and Pluto is direct in Aquarius.
When a planet is retrograde in our charts, it means that the properties of that planet, in a sense, are reversed. The times that Mercury goes retrograde defines a time for us to slow down and go within. Think about what is happening in our lives and where we are going. Most of us see this time as an annoyance, but once again, Astrology is a tool and we need to use the time for our benefit.
Generally speaking, during a Mercury retrograde, we can expect delays, traffic situations, problems in communications (especially with telephones and cell phones), computer problems, delays in mail, and we never want to sign any contracts or legal documents, especially long-term ones. We don't throw logic completely out the window, if something needs to be taken care of and is of an urgent nature, we don't put it off, we just do what we need to do and see what unfolds.
All Aries and Libra are affected by this solar eclipse. Personal life is the most likely area to suffer, especially your closest relationships. The effect of a Solar Eclipse can last up to six months even years, so allow yourself to be acutely aware of all that you set in motion the day before, the day of and the day after the Eclipse!
We want to clarify our daily and monthly horoscopes are general for all zodiac signs and do not take into account of your personal natal chart. For a personal reading click here
Leo: Pluto transiting the Seventh Solar House rules your husband, wife, boyfriend, girlfriend, and ex-partners. It also rules your enemies and opponents.
You may now find yourself tempted by dazzling new clout and prestige, but only if you use your willpower.
It may sound strange to hear that you can be empowered by an enemy (or vice versa) but it can happen now. And of course, a covetable marriage or relationship can be a trophy if you use self-control.
If you are single and/or lack a professional partner, one could come along. Take your time. He or she is dominating, passionate, controlling and potent. You are going to have to strike a deal with this person long-term but also strike a deal with yourself. Choose your battles, is good advice.
Take advantage of this New Moon (Total Solar Eclipse) in Aries to fire up your adventurous ninth solar house. Don't limit your vision over the coming six months ruled by this new moon. You could become a global brand or incorporate more travel into your life by widening your parameters.
During this cycle, your inner entrepreneur could wake up, and next thing you know you're commuting between not cities but continents! Not sure how to get this started? Reach out to friends in far-flung places and ask for their advice.
You also have Mercury into Aries until May 14 and in your ninth solar house. This is a good time for any kind of study and education. Subjects relating to foreign places, the law, philosophy or higher knowledge of any kind will engage your attention.
It is possible that you may have some dealings with officials connected with the law, although you should not fear this possibility particularly. It is a good time to travel, because your curiosity makes travel very interesting to you. You are also quite open to alternative lifestyles at this time.
Keep in mind that Mercury retrogrades in your worldly ninth solar house on April 2nd through April 25, you could wake up feeling nostalgic for a favorite vacation spot.
If you're journeying to a new destination before April 25, be wary Mercury's information jamming. So, if you are even flying, or planning to, in this modern plague, be aware of cancellation and rescheduling risks.
Jupiter in Taurus? Success until May 25 is professional. If you don’t work full-time or part-time, this cycle tends to affect your other roles and goals. It may influence your life as a professional wife, for example, or your unemployment-benefit musical career, or your university degree.
Leo, a career situation which you know backwards from 12 years ago is now mirrored. However, the whole point of this cycle, is to encourage you to use your experience to help you move forward. You may well have a big win by mid-May 2024.
The Full Moon in Scorpio on April 23rd occurs in your 4th solar house of home and family.
This full moon will bring sensitive endings to the feelings that have interfered with your happiness.
This is the perfect time to seek closure from the early childhood experiences that continue to weigh you down in the present. Have a heart-to-heart with your parental figures to help you release your difficult memories and commit to letting go of the past.
Dramatic endings under this full moon could cause you to pack up and move home or say goodbye to a roommate of yours. Getting rid of old furniture or celebrating your achievements by going back to family traditions are perfect ways to utilize this energy.
