Monday, April 20: A day of decisions that will not be easily reversed, decisions that will have consequences, as Mercury conjuncts Saturn and Mars, but we have to make them wise ones. Think it through, make sure to have all the working parts in mind, know what's going on, and make sure everybody feels heard before anything is signed. Set limits and mean them, apply for a job, or mortgage, or take a step in a longed-for direction. Keep an eye on the big picture map and watch the headlines for important clues about the near future.
Mercury conjunct Saturn 5:21 AM, Mercury conjunct Mars 3:44 PM.
Tuesday, April 21: After a nervy, scattered morning, the Moon enters comfort-requiring Cancer midday and asks us to take care of ourselves and neglected issues on the home front. But don’t use this needed recentering as an excuse for a sullen retreat from hurt feelings; we’ll pout quickly as defenses trigger. Let’s move out of blame, take personal responsibility, and take care of ourselves.
Moon enters Cancer 10:59 AM, Moon sextile Sun 1:50 PM, Moon trine Neptune 3:53 PM.
Wednesday, April 22: The internal Moon in Cancer squares Saturn, Mars, and Mercury this morning. If we feel overwhelmed or stretched thin, we can get irritated, blame others when we are the person most responsible for healthy boundaries and meeting our needs. Be pro-active instead. Bring attention back home and take care of all domestic issues, whether we're talking politics or family, even if it feels at odds with a current ambition. It furthers to do our due diligence on projects close to our heart and mind, direct this energy and keep it out of trouble. Open the heart’s doors to beloveds later in the day as the Moon conjuncts Jupiter, help them feel encouraged on their own tracks.
Moon square Saturn 12:30 AM, Moon square Mars 3:11 AM, Moon square Mercury 5:29 AM, Moon conjunct Jupiter 4:51 PM.
Thursday, April 23: Deal with personal business early as the introverted Cancer Moon sextiles Venus and Uranus. Then get outside, work the crowd, listen for new connections as Venus conjuncts Uranus and enters nervy, cross-pollinating Gemini and the Moon enters extroverted Leo. Our mood could become lighter, less introspective, a bit more flirtatious. Although some will use this verbal glitz for propaganda or cheap excuses, it can also help us write what needs to be written, become more ready to negotiate, less interested in just a military solution. It can create an opportunity for innovative and peace-seeking folk to find a new voice.
