Astrology by Sarah Lyons April 2018

Action planet Mars passes by taskmaster Saturn in Capricorn; sign of business, government and all serious matters on the 2nd. This is a great time to charge into your projects, as this steady energy can assist you to accomplish your goals! But, with Mercury still retrograde, better to finish what you are already working on and wait until after the 15th before anything new is started. Let’s hope to see successful outcomes in both personal and world issues at this time. Mercury’s gradual forward movement in Aries will increase this drive for success during the next 10 days. On the night of the 15th just hours after Mercury moves on, a New Moon in dynamic Aries begins the next lunar cycle with revolutionary planet Uranus, bringing the unexpected and unusual along! This is a very special new cycle that can begin with breakthroughs and awakenings in any area of our lives! If you have been waiting for the right time; this is it!

The Sun moves along to stable, patient Taurus on the 19th; so we will have the endurance to accomplish those big undertakings for the next month. As love planet Venus visits dualistic Gemini on the 24th we may also spend the next month with a desire to live in the moment or experience as much variety as we can, instead of making long term commitments. Mars has moved swiftly along and catches up to transformative Pluto on the 26th. This can bring reform in structures, with dynamic and courageous changes. A Full Fish Moon in passionate, resourceful Scorpio lights up our sky on the 29th just as April comes to a close. This peak in the lunar cycle can shine on our inner, private world; and reveal the strengths we need to seize the opportunities that can propel us forward to new levels of achievement.
