From April 1st to the 7th it is easy to fall into negative thinking as our imagination can run wild. Clarity comes by remaining steadfast. Bit by bit we see more clearly what is really at stake in our lives. Although others can help, so much of what needs to be accomplished now seems entirely dependent on individual effort.
1st – Monday – Emotional energy and suppositions tend to power interactions. Everyone is a little too quick to react to circumstances. Our own suspicions and fears easily get projected onto others.
2nd – Tuesday – Mars Semi-sextile Uranus, Mercury Conjunct Neptune, Venus Semi-square Pluto – We are caught between a higher vision of life and what looks like a narrow path through a maze of practical concerns. A few overtures in the right direction are more meaningful than half-hearted allegiance to a theoretical truth.
3rd – Wednesday – Mars Contra-parallel Saturn, Sun Contra-parallel Mercury – Even though progress may be slow, we speed things up if we take time to check our basic assumptions. Getting in tune with the will of the cosmos can guide us toward greater economy of effort.
4th – Thursday – Mars Contra-parallel Pluto, Sun Contra-parallel Neptune – Even though we experience tremendous energy, there is conflict between immediate gains and long term viability. Contemplation and meditation can bring us deep inside ourselves which prepares us for the next step.
5th – Friday – The New Moon is at 15o Aries at 4:50 AM EDT – It’s a time of planting. We will benefit by taking stock of where we are, where we have been, and where we want to go next. Although we may feel inspired to take a quick jump into something new, our time is best spent making sure our compass is working correctly.
6th – Saturday – The unexpected keeps arriving; stability is in short supply. Taking time to just enjoy the show is more meaningful than trying to control the flow of events. Organizing our thoughts around practical concerns can give much needed structure to our whole mental lives.
7th – Sunday – Mercury Sextile Saturn, Sun Semi-sextile Neptune, Mars Sesquiquadrate Saturn, Sun Contra-parallel Venus – New information has to be organized if it is to be useful. Patience is necessary as there are no quick solutions to the difficulties stretching out in front of us now. The good news is, what we are building now is built to last.
