Tomorrow night is the New Moon in Taurus. It's the first New Moon since the April 8 total eclipse, and its themes are a direct continuation of this spring's deepest messages -- but with a distinctly Taurean tone, of course.
Jupiter's conjunction to Uranus in Taurus is exact this Saturday, April 20! If you're still not sure what your "big, bold vision for your life" is, don't freak. You have time to recognize how this energy is showing up for you and to begin using it more consciously.
For this total solar eclipse the Sun and Moon will be *precisely* aligned with Chiron: known for raising our awareness for the purposes of healing. Chiron acts like a lens, focusing our attention, and I wrote these horoscopes to assist in that.
Just how fitting is it that Mercury is stationing retrograde in Aries on April Fool's Day? Mercury is known as the Trickster, and its retrogrades have a way of showing us how our failures to focus can result in what feel like frustrating practical jokes from the universe. I think, however, these hiccups are less about the cosmos playing tricks and more an opportunity to notice how we are (or are not) thinking and communicating.
During the two weeks between a pair of eclipses life can feel like it speeds up or takes a sharp turn. You may be asked to notice what you no longer need to stay attached to, to choose your next step toward your vision with intention, and to stay loose enough to roll with the unexpected. Mercury stationing retrograde April 1 is adding some "interest" to the process.
Sunday's convergence of the Sun and Moon in Pisces is the last lunation before we begin the spring eclipse season. Taking a little time this weekend to slow down and feel into your intuition, creativity, or any meditative practice could prove useful preparation for when spring gets going in earnest, and hopefully these horoscopes will assist you with that.
Have you done any kind of meditation, reflection, journaling, or other form of inner journeying today? I ask because the current astro-weather looks ideal for such activities, and as we move through the rest of the week there may be opportunities to put whatever you receive, discover, or connect with to excellent use.
