Sunday ~ From 3:31 to 5:37 am EDT, the Moon is void of course and then in Capricorn. The Moon and Sun align today at this time between Full and New Moon. Dig into the dirt and get fully engaged with the process, especially the ones related to manifesting what's important in this world, the earthly representations of your values. Today's color is Brown.

Monday ~Capricorn Moon, Mars and Neptune meet in Pisces, and Venus moves toTaurus. The general feel, despite any challenges, is get real with  your emotions, remember the value of romance and sensual pleasures, and do not rule anything out without investigating and gaining more insight. Wear Blue today.

Tuesday ~ Capricorn to Aquarius Moon without really skipping a beat, at 11:20 am EDT. Mars moves to Aries, his home sign at 11:33 EDT. This is an action starting time, oriented to beginnings and movement. Work through and move past obstacles and mental blocks. Today's color is Purple.

Wednesday ~Aquarius Moon with a mix of aspects. Mercury aligns with the Moon from Aries. The main idea is keep going and restart where you left off a month or more ago. Renegotiate with yourself or someone else. What are the new and revised terms and plans. Try not to stall or overthink. Also, do not override your intuition, especially regarding love and relationship as Venus and Pluto form a square in the wee hours, affecting all  of mid week. Today's color is Turquoise.

Thursday~ Pluto stations retrograde at 1:46 pm EDT. Pluto spends a good deal of our lives retrograde, so whether you notice depends on Pluto's placement in your own chart and solar return. Aquarius Moon squares planets in Taurus. This points out things we try to hang onto. Sudden news or surprise changes may not be appreciated by some of us. Void Moon 5:28 am to 2:52 pm EDT. Pisces Moon aligns with Venus for romantic, loving and forgiving this evening. Pink is today's color.

Friday ~ Mars and Pluto align in a sextile. This harmonious aspect can bring dynamic combinations, such as a deep connection with someone for either work or in love. This may bring that feeling of having known someone before or forever even if they're new in your current life. Pisces Moon in harmony with the Sun and meeting Saturn leads to both decisive and purposeful feelings and may be emotionally strong and courageous. Feel your feelings without caving into them. See how strength can be found. Today's color is Green.

Saturday ~ Pisces to Aries Moon. Creativity and growth are favored. Think out of the box and create without boundaries. Aries Moon 4:41 pm after a short void of course time 3:06 until then. The Moon aligns with Pluto retrograde at 8:08 pm ET. This feels like beginnings and endings at once, and blends the past and the future, desires and motivations. Moon and Mars meet in a burst of Aries energy that feels unstoppable. Wear Red today.

Mercury Retrograde Ends April 21st ~27th, 2024

 Sunday~ Sun square Pluto and Moon in Libra. Consider what creates more inner peace. Meditation practices and working with the earth is favored. Wear Indigo.

Monday ~ The Moon approaches full and remains in Libra until the overnight. Void Moon 7:42 pm EDT until 11:20 am EDT tomorrow. Weigh pros and cons, but avoid getting too caught up in thoughts and overanalyzing. Tonight or even the day could be social and include getting 'back together' with someone or something. Wear Lavender.

Tuesday ~ Full Moon in Scorpio shows us the extremes and depths. Look for root causes and what's below the surface. Experiences are likely to be powerful, have  both emotional and monetary/financial implications, and may include emotional resolution. Let go of a grudge, or if that's not yet possible, invite more objectivity and enter the healing process. Note the vibrations of the last two eclipses and how more clarity or closure are in progress. Today's color is White.

Wednesday~ Scorpio Moon still in full power/ Emotions will tend to be intense and situations may be dramatic or have extreme impact. As the Moon and Saturn align, you may be more able to channel feelings into something constructive, artistic, and also to make sense of things that initially seem irrational or over the top. Notice the important life things coming up for yourself or others and seek a compassionate approach. Black is today's color.

Thursday ~ Scorpio to Sagittarius Moon. The waning Moon opposes Jupiter and Uranus in Taurus. Financial and property developments may seem to happen fast or need immediate action. Money, real estate, wills, end of life matters and all things earthly are in focus. So are relationships in terms of passion, fidelity and commitment. Sagittarius Moon time comes after void Moon 7:17 to 9:37 pm EDT. Mercury stations direct in Aries. As the week goes on, motivation and a more open minded approach are likely. Wear Red.

Friday ~ Mercury is now direct, yet most things will feel in flux or remain adjustable. Sagittarius Moon brings up questions, philosophical questions, and increases the urge for travel or a change of pace. Take your time and avoid any unnecessary pressure. Explore a place or an idea. Try something out before committing. Wear Purple.

Saturday ~ The truth is at the heart of this weekend's quest. Sagittarius Moon again requests information, honesty and simultaneously reminds us to couch our criticisms or words with sensitivity. Too much honesty can sometime be hurtful. Note the difference between being truthful and causing irreparable harm. Be conscientious with communication. Avoid burning bridges. We are still adjusting to eclipse season and Mercury now direct. Today's color is Blue.

Aries to Taurus Spring Astrology April 14th ~ 20th 2024

Sunday, April 14th ~ Cancer Moon today features seriousness and intention with family, real estate and home related matters. Find the right amount of assertiveness and realism. Try not to let emotions get in the way of what's truly the best approach. The Moon and Venus square for resolving relationship differences. Stay out of your own way, avoid defensive reactions, and look for mutual decisions and sense of agreement. Today's color is White.

Monday ~ Cancer Moon until 10:24 pm ET continues some of yesterday's themes and adds on. Keep looking for areas of agreement. Notice how two people can sound different but mean the same thing. Plant seeds, metaphorically or tangibly as the Moon aligns with Jupiter in earthy Taurus. Work or play outside. Bask in literal or internal waters, flow, float and dream some of the afternoon or evening time away, happily. Void Moon 7:22 to 10:24 pm ET. Later night Leo Moon. Plan to dress up a little on Tuesday or for a Monday night out. Wear Green today.

Tuesday ~ Leo Moon opposes Pluto. This is a monthly occurence since Pluto shifted to Aquarius, and it could create different feelings for any of us. Start to track how Leo Moon opposite Pluto influences you. Overall, Leo Moon lends optimism and leads us to get out of our heads and into LIFE. Today's color is Purple. 

Wednesday ~ Leo Moon and lots of variety and activity are in the forecast. Key themes include relationship harmony, new love, mutual agreements, writing and performing, quick learning and studies, surprise turns of events, and stubborn persistence. Avoid holding on too tightly or being rigid in your ideas. Open your heart to what's right in front of you. Today's color is Gold.

Thursday ~ Leo Moon aligns with Aries Sun before shifting to Virgo at 10:10 am ET. Sense of adventure and willingness to try are two effects. Virgo Moon leads to hands on tasks, cleaning, purifying, problem solving and rooting in the earth through movement or planting and yard clean up. Get something ready for the next phase of spring. This is the final full day of Aries season. Wear Brown.

Friday ~ Taurus time begins at 10:00 am ET. Mercury and Venus conjunction is in Aries. This is a get up and go day. Notice heart and mind aligned and follow that feeling. Mars is in harmony with Uranus and Jupiter and this can really help motivation and get us out of emotional stagnancy.  Virgo Moon opposite Saturn will point out differences, yet favors realistic and sensible steps and plans. Mercury is retrograde for about one more week. Get things in order and leave room for revision in May or later April. Yellow is today's color.

Saturday ~ Virgo Moon until 11:08 pm ET. Most of the last two days forecasts applies still. The Moon opposes Mars for a call to action. Let uncertainty give way to intuition. When you know what needs to be decided or done, you can feel it in your body. That's SO Virgo. Also notice that  you're processing things in your body. What is your gut telling you? Avoid going against it. Is there too much to process right now? Take in less in every way and give  yourself time to digest and become clear. Jupiter and Uranus meet in a burst of energy that feels like opportunity, giant steps, and moving into the unknown boldly. Void Moon 8:20 t0 11:08 pm ET. Today's color is Green.

Sunday, April 7th ~ As we approach New Moon and the eclipse on Monday, the Moon moves between Pisces and Aries, first meeting Neptune at 4:27 am, setting a surreal tone and atmosphere this morning. From that time until 7:25 am ET, the Moon is void of course. Early risers may get lost in beautiful moments or experience unusual occurences and metaphysical experiences. Aries Moon follows, bringing us into our own most important agendas and possibly we hope to move something forward as the Moon and Mercury meet at 10:31 am ET, an interesting time if you're in a meeting or important discussion this morning. Notice what comes up and it's relationship to past time, reconnecting with people or a person or a place. Aries Moon meets Venus at 12:22 pm ET, instigating attractions, collaboration, and even spur of the moment adventures. This all could make for a nice afternoon. Today's color is Red.

Monday, April 8th ~The Solar Eclipse simultaenous with New Moon in Aries (they are always simultaneous, the eclipse and the New or Full Moon) is full of promise. This big shift and event of the total eclipse, visible in parts of the US this time, is supported by Mercury, also in Aries. The Moon meets Mercury at 10:39 pm ET, after the eclipse. Mercury is the communication and travel planet, relates to both our plans and how we carry them through, and is currently retrograde. So as we make our shifts and progressions, the past is directly in view and influencing eveything. It may be the undercurrent of the past that lives on in your memory and affects your current responses and decisions. It may also be more active and in the forefront as in someone returning or you returning to a place or to a situation that could never move forward and now things look promising again. For today, I say take it as it comes and live in the moment. What's meant to be shows up. Enjoy your solar eclipse plans! Today's color is White.

Void Moon 10:39 pm to 7:23 am ET

Tuesday ~ Taurus Moon from 7:23 am ET into Thursday. The Moon squares Pluto. Our relationship to and feelings about our property and possessions and the money we earn and spend are today's main topics. Making home and workplaces more emotionally comfortable is something to be dealt with today as well. Taurus Moon favors hands on projects and initiating or getting back to one is favored today. Stay soul oriented in this material world and as you handle life's necessary tasks. Today's color is Pink.

Wednesday ~ Taurus Moon with 4 harmonious aspects. And Mars meets Saturn in Pisces. The Mars Saturn conjunction can be pushy or authoritative. The balance is to deal with an important matter without bullying, anger or aggression. Taurus Moon meets Jupiter and Uranus for extreme outcomes and developments. Determination increases. Be realistic and keep some perspective as some things could feel over the top. As they peak, they will also settle and/or become more clear. Forms and patterns are set to change this season and everything requires time and adjustment. Today's color is Black.

Thursday ~ Taurus Moon aligns with Neptune reflecting something from Saturday/Sunday in terms of dreams, romance, and/or spiritual experience as connected to earthly life. I like this morning for a walk in nature, away from the hustle even if it's only a few steps into the woods or onto the local beach or river walk. The Moon moves to Gemini at 8:59 am ET and aligns with Pluto. Ideas percolate and inner wisdom speaks. The Sun and Mercury meet on this very Aries oriented day, and this is one of the peaks of Mercury retrograde which lasts until the 25th. This feels like a positive peak, such as a reunion or a revisting of a promising opportunity or decision that was overdue in some way. Express your hopes and ask for what you need. The Moon and Venus are aligned which can ease relationships. Enjoy time with someone, notice your intellectual connections and like mindedness. If times are tense, could today provide some respite and allow for some joy. This could be a good date night or afternoon out for leisure. Wear Orange.

Friday ~ Gemini Moon promises a mixed bag today, with potential stress or conflicting plans, yet also reasons to get together, share stories, interact and enjoy the company of others, especially in the evening hours. Today's color is Blue.

Saturday ~ Gemini Moon aligns with the Sun for more connection between us and for getting our minds and emotions aligned. This feels optimistic and perhaps more focused. At 10:45 am, the Moon squares Neptune bringing truth/lack of truth to the forefront. Ask questions to clarify anything unclear and notice if someone is avoiding the real issue by diverting attention. Follow through on promises (I said promises often in this week's forecast*). Cancer Moon 1:45 pm ET forward through the weekend. Light Blue is today's color.
