Greetings stargazers!

Luna's fiery side is felt this month when she enters the sign of the Ram. What do you need to do? Charge up your battery and get ready to to spend some energy during this New Moon in Aries.

The ram loves to put his head down and barrel toward his desires. This can lead to headaches! Be more like this conscious sheep. Hold your head up high and take in your surroundings. Read on dear ones, to find out what is coming your way this month. Words to the wise: Take your time and exercise your patience!

It is good to take yourself away from your daily schedule and do something completely different from your norm. A change of scene and a switch in our daily routine help us to appreciate what we have in our lives. The cleansing effect is rejuvenating. The act of change supports us in finding whom we really are. Upon returning we notice the things we love about what we do. We find a new found appreciation for the people, places and things that surround us.

 

When the Sun reaches Aries in the Tropical calendar it is the zero point, the beginning of the cycle. Cosmically we now pass go and collect a pouch of new found energy. Aries, ruled by Mars is fire and force. Projects which need more push, and relationships which need more attention finally get the energy they need to thrive. Though this happened last month it is worth the review. The emotions are now receiving the same new found jolt of dynamic juice when the New Moon occurs in Aries April 14.

 

At the moment of the New Moon, Mercury conjoins Venus in Taurus. The trickster and the love goddess roll around in luxury in the velvety land of the Bull. Use this to calm your words and your thoughts. Explain yourself in delicious short phrases and make ready for Mercury to slip into his coming retrograde. Let these two help you remember to slow down. Taking time helps you to get the words right. Rushing makes it more difficult to express what you really want. Jupiter sextile Luna and Aphrodite, gives you a much needed hand to reach out to for help. Talking too much makes it hard to follow your own conversation. Neptune is sextile the New Moon causes excessive daydreaming. Keep your eye on the road, literally. Watch everything and stay on your toes! Pallas opposed Venus and Mercury forces words out of your mouth. Your opinion lashes out as you feel the need to express what you want and how you see things going. Vesta in a square to Venus creates an obstacle making it difficult to get what you want. Mars conjunct Hygeia influences matters of wellness and of the blood. Be careful! No running with sharp objects and by all means leave more time when traveling so you can take the quieter route. These points change things for each of us. This all depends on what they activate in your birth chart.

 

Mercury stations and turns Retrograde April 18 in Taurus. This makes time slow way down which is a good thing. Those who lost an hour on the Daylight savings switch now begin to finally feel caught up. The prankster is square to Mars as he begins this reevaluation period. Use the quiet of your mind rather than the force of your words while combing over situations. Take time to think everything out. What you are frustrated with now is probably not going to be resolved until after April 24 when the Moon reaches its perigee. This is the point in the Moon's orbit is nearest to Earth. The saving grace is that the Moon is trine to Mercury creating moments of brilliance to spill forth from your lips by way of your heart chakra. Reach into your feelings to aid in sorting this out.

 

April 20 Chiron cruises into Pisces. The healing power of Chiron in the spiritual sign of the two fishes is urging society to find new and alternative answers to the issue of healthcare. In addition to the reform within the US government’s view of the subject, we are due to see alternative methods becoming more mainstream. Will hospitals have massage therapists? This could happen. Chiron’s natural route through our solar system takes him to the far outreaches of uncommon Uranus and in as close as the practical path of Saturn. Uranus loves to bless the masses with an extraordinary array of ideas.  We all know it is long over due that our attitude turns to healing rather than money making when health is the topic. This energetic signpost is just what the doctor ordered to get us on the road to wellville! Though it may take some time to really get this all in motion, every little step in the right direction is a good thing.      

 

Venus floats into the dualistic nature of Gemini April 25 and there are bound to be oddities at hand. Careful to flip through all of the choices and to sort them out. When choosing and making decisions, take your time so you are not going back and forth to the store making exchanges. Hold all letters for at least 24 hours prior to hitting the send button!

 

The Scorpio Full Moon occurs at 8:18 A.M. EDT April 28, 2010. Venus is quincunx Pluto which puts a great deal of stress on personal relationships. If you had been slipping down a slippery slope, then thank goodness Saturn is trine Venus bringing the stability you need to set things right. Jupiter opposite Saturn pushes you to do what you want in a big way. Look around and check the idea before you place it in play. You must make the decision to do what is right. Remind yourself  “All things in moderation.”  Mars is square to the Moon and Mercury which may bring the need to place yourself in a timeout. Give yourself room to fully look at situations before you ram into them! 

 

The Moon reaches apogee May 6, 2010. It is easier to cool down heated emotions brought on by Luna’s opposition to Mars when she is farthest from Earth. If health was a concern at the time of the New Moon, the condition is worsened if you ignore it now. The body is a sacred vessel. Treat it as such.

 

Mercury stations and turns direct in Taurus May 11. If all cards have been played well this month, you stand to gain a great deal with the confidence of Saturn in a trine. The bottom line is to keep it cool in conversations and under your collar this month. Should you desire a consultation to find the messages of the stars I am out of the country until the first week in May. Please email me and let me know your desire. I will place you in my schedule as soon as I return. Have a great month!

Love, your girl of the stars, Chica de las Estrellas
