From April 1st to the 7th it seems we were moving along at a pleasant clip, and then everything stopped, or at least slowed down.
It isn’t just you; everyone is having some difficulty seeing what to do next. It may look like this is a time to rest, or just goof off. But no, this is a time to change approaches. To be observant without “losing it” pays big dividends. Try not to get upset with others.
1st – Monday – Mercury turns Retrograde –
Regardless of our plans, it’s good to allot some time to see what we are doing. If we are “digging a hole”- is it good, necessary, and for our improvement? This time doesn’t favor change in habits or procedures. Our direction, methods, and end goal are probably fine. But it is prime time to evaluate what we are doing, and view the horizon.
2nd – Tuesday – Mercury Semi-sextile Venus, Sun Semi-sextile Saturn –
We win if we focus on what we have and carefully operate within prescribed boundaries. It is easy to get lost in thoughts of “what if”, but this is not helpful. We take a step in the right direction when we keep our vision on what is practical and real.
3rd – Wednesday – Venus Conjunct Neptune, Venus Parallel Neptune
Aspirations for something beyond what we normally experience give potency to our quest to go beyond our limitations. Any movement toward the light is rewarded in kind. Art, literature, and drama through any medium all bring peace. Receiving is nice, but we must share the blessings of the moment to make them ours.
4th – Thursday – Detachment gives true vision.
We can feel something brewing in the cosmos that we don’t seem to be able to directly participate in. Awareness of the changes in the environment is to look into a mirror. Is it us or the world that is changing?
5th – Friday – Venus enters Aries –
Too many options and too many distractions can water down the effect of our efforts today. We don’t have to be shouting “yippy” with every action. Just getting the job done will bring satisfaction. There is a well-trod path in front of us, a pattern of acceptable procedures. The commonplace doesn’t need embellishment. Just being responsible helps the world situation.
6th – Saturday – Mercury Semi-square Mars, Venus Sextile Pluto –
We can see a new way to accomplish common tasks. Bringing others along with our insights requires more than finesse; we must listen to others and incorporate their relevant ideas. Teachers, with many years of experience, learn valuable lessons from beginning students, when they listen.
7th – Sunday – If we are looking carefully, there is an opening to put the icing on the cake; this is not a moment to bake a new cake, just to grab a reachable bonus to our already completed enterprise. Enthusiasm is present, but a new wave is approaching, and we must be patient to catch the coming momentum offered by the cosmos.
