On Monday, April 1st the Pisces Moon squares off with Mars in Gemini and Uranus in Taurus. This emotional disturbance comes during the dark moon, the last phase in a lunar cycle. Many of us may find ourselves dealing with a lack of resources or bandwidth to complete an objective or goal. Be open and honest about it.

On Tuesday, April 2nd relationships grow deeper (or farther apart) when the Pisces Moon reflects Venus in Pisces in a favorable parallel. Inner desires and relationships are one. Efforts to communicate or resolve a problem are enhanced. There is space to connect to a deeper issue and work through it. A 2nd Mercury and Neptune conjunction in Pisces could stir up health issues within the body. Health and fitness plans should be implemented now.

On Wednesday, April 3rd communications are lively. The Void Pisces Moon squares Jupiter in Sagittarius. A feeling of restlessness, impracticality, and self-doubt could suddenly arise and deep theatrical emotions can surface. Be mindful of others extreme sensitivity at this time. Mars in Gemini also forms a Sextile to Chiron in Aries today, it will last until tomorrow. New ideas and research help to develop a sense of pride and confidence during this transit. Open your heart and mind.

The April New Moon will occur early Friday morning, April 5th 4:51am at 15”17 degrees Aries.

The April New Moon starts a new lunar cycle. It represents new personal beginnings with self, others, and life. The Aries Moon forms three squares that bring a new level of frustration and tension around projects that we are trying to love forward:

1. The Aries Moon squares the North Node in Cancer. This aspect brings tension to our interactions at home. May desire to work from home or have more free time to  spend with kids, mate, or yourself.

2. The Aries Moon squares Pluto in Capricorn. This aspect brings painful transformations to how you handle responsibility and authority in your world. There is a direct shift of power between you and someone else that stirs up tension. Uncomfortable internal personal changes must be made now.  

3. The Aries Moon squares Saturn in Capricorn. This aspect brings deep learning lessons about self-discipline and authority. There is a lesson of patience that must be learned. Expect a delay, a setback, or a flat out no about something. You are being urged to take personal responsibility for yourself.

   
   The Aries moon will also form a Trine to Jupiter in Sagittarius. This final aspect brings a sense of right timing and luck to a dire situation. This aspect should be experienced as a cushion, or your angels watching over you. Remember to be grateful for the sudden opportunities that spring into your arms. Take advantage of the hidden blessing in disguise today.

The weekend sings a happy song after Friday’s heavy New Moon in Aries. On Saturday, March 6th Mars and Uranus will conjunct in Taurus. Personal behaviors will reflect mature decision making and consistent effort to move things in a more positive direction. Personal finances may need some fresh ideas, and many will be thinking about money, how to make more money, or how to invest money. No matter how good your idea is, it’s best to let it ride for now. A Mercury in Pisces and Saturn in Capricorn Sextile encourages long-term commitment to a creative goal or venture. Anything that is started now is sure to last. Patience is a virtue.

On Sunday, March 7th relationships get seriou when the Moon in Taurus forms a Sextile with Venus in Pisces. This aspect encourages vulnerability, open communication, and self-confidence. Our internal desire for stability and long-term relationships overcome any fear we have of commitment. Rocky relationships either end or find solid ground. Healthy relationships grow closer.
