April 6-12, 2025
How do we know what to do when there is so much hanging in the balance? How do we navigate the challenges of relating to loved ones who disagree with us about so many things? This week brings Mercury and Venus stationing direct and a Full Moon in Libra, all of which are going to play an intricate but formidable role in our relationships. If any of said relationships have been on the rocks lately, these transitions are quite likely to generate some growth in one direction or another. The inner planets are all patiently prodding us toward fiery new beginnings, we just have to wait for them to all get out of the water and dry off!

Moon in Leo opposite Pluto in Aquarius
Mars in Cancer trine Venus in Pisces
A fiery excitement is trying to break out of the confines of an otherwise encapsulated aquarium of sorts. We can see the passionate thrills and desires out in the distance, and maybe even smell their sweet nectar on the winds in our faces, but there is still a need for gestational reflection and preparations so that our deliverance from this transmutational womb is as timely and holistic as possible. We are churning the butter wheel of our relational repairs and recalibrations, anxiously awaiting some vigor and vitality to return to the fold within them. What we are realizing, processing, and reckoning right now will make so much more sense when all three inner planets finally ingress into fire signs together and influence so much motivation, activity, and ultimately personal change that redirects the course of our lives. This unfurls from April 16-30, when all three will finally be out of the water.

*Venus conjunct Saturn in Pisces*
*Mercury stations direct at 26° Pisces*
Are our values and truths lining up nicely with our partner’s? If we do not have a partner, how are we holding the line within our own framework of truth and personal discipline? As we continue to reconcile the necessities that are coming on stronger and stronger through April, we have to continue to weed our garden of all invasive species, including the invasion of our own undoing. Open, unspoken, and even unrealized truths are making their way to the surface like bubbles in a glass for us to grapple with. Are we still or carbonated? Will unrealized truths be noticed? Perhaps we are finally going to speak up about our grievances, about lines that have been crossed, about the suffering that has been imposed upon us, or about anything that has felt wrong. We should know that someone may come at us with all these grievances instead. It can be hard to tell until it’s all happening at once.

Venus in Pisces sextile Uranus in Taurus
Values and resources continue to be a very potent topic in our lives. How we are investing our finances, how we budget our expenses, and how we align what we spend our money on with what we believe in are on the table for discussion and contemplation. Especially notable today is how we might increase our sustainability while simultaneously elevating the standards of how and why we spend our money. Have we been less frugal than we should be lately, and where should we consider pulling the reins back for some proper discernment? We are also very susceptible to feelings of confusion, especially in our relationships. Have things gone too far awry? Do we feel like the old spark has faded or been lost over time? Maybe some delicious food, intimacy, music, or anything that stimulates our senses can help reestablish some mutual affection and endearment.

Moon in Virgo square Jupiter in Gemini
Getting things squared away is not only a pun intended, but a legitimate and likely outcome of today. The refinements and adjustments we apply to our lives always seem to stem from some inspiration acquired along the way. Maybe we connected to a character in a book, a movie, or a song. Maybe we are feeling our own inspiration and personal desires to implement valuable and necessary changes into our lives. Whatever the case, and whatever the circumstances, we should not be falling short with anything we put our minds to today. There is a productive tension that might be agitating us to some extent, but it might be the kind of tension that motivates us to pivot, reposition, recalibrate, and design a new course that better suits and inspires a desire for more organization, functionality, and productivity.

Moon in Virgo opposite Venus in Pisces
Moon in Virgo trine Uranus in Taurus
Moon in Virgo opposite Saturn in Pisces
Moon in Virgo sextile Mars in Cancer
Moon in Virgo opposite Mercury in Pisces
Moon conjunct its South Node in Virgo
Moon in Libra opposite Neptune in Aries
Moon is reflecting, and thus challenging us to reconcile, chaos, overwhelm, and the deep unreal in our lives today. Are there notions or claims we have taken for granted as gospel that may in fact be rubbish? Have we been able to pull ourselves out of the foggy ruins of time and into great wide open? Or maybe we are just trying to decompress all the stress in hopes of finding some serenity and calm again. Regardless, this is an extremely active day that, if harnessed with focus and good intentions, can yield some incredibly powerful breakthroughs and progress establishing the new foundation we are building. The ultimate ideal is to end the day having filtered out what we know must perish so that what might persist can thrive. Our needs and wants must be resolved! Too often one has nothing to do with the other.

Moon in Libra trine Pluto in Aquarius
Other people play a critical role in our lives in ways we are not even conscious of. They shape our unconscious mindscape through even the simplest exchanges and patterns of behavior. This invariably affects our daily choices, behaviors, feelings, and the subsequent outcomes of all three. In this way, other people have so much more to do with our sense of serenity and joy than we realize. They also have so much more to do with us coming to a better understanding of who we are as individuals than we realize. Should we not then take a careful discerning look at the friends we keep and how they may have shaped who we are right now? Today is like an open invitation to shine a light into the hard-to-reach places in the attics of our relationships to find out how much harmony, abundance, and inspiration our friends and loved ones bring into our lives. Is it all worth it?

Moon in Libra trine Jupiter in Gemini
Sun conjunct Chiron in Aries
*Full Moon at 23° Libra at 8:21pm EDT*
*Venus stations direct at 24° Pisces*
Today we are carrying forward the keen awareness sensed during yesterday’s Moon-Pluto trine about how valuable and positive our friends and loved ones are to us. Maybe something beautiful and inspiring will show us a magic that has been dormant. Tonight’s Full Libra Moon is shining some brilliantly motivated Aries Sunlight into our lives in hopes we find the courage to enact more lasting harmony into our relationships. Have we learned how to relate more agreeably to our loved ones? Do we feel more open, honest, and willing to share anything with them? Is that person someone we can call upon for help in times of need? As Venus stations direct, we should take stock of all our financial and relational concerns and realizations that have accrued over the past six weeks. What exactly have we come to realize needs to change, shift, be undone, or be built? It is time to begin that process with courage and fortitude.
This week tests our willingness to more actively participate in our relationships. We might not need to step anything up more than a notch or two, but some of us may need to go buy a new ladder altogether. Growth is difficult, admitting our faults and failures is difficult, humbling ourselves in front of those we disagree with is difficult, but very little of anything we find remarkable, awe-inspiring, admirable, or magnificent is easy. The path is daily, hourly, and every breath. Hopefully we can all make tremendous joyful progress in all our relationships. We have to be patient and trust that exciting and spicy smiles are coming soon to the world we love! Hope will not fade if we trust this.
