Welcome back to your weekly horoscope sweet trees and darling roots!
On Sunday, April 24th, Mercury and the North Node together in Taurus square Saturn in Aquarius. While tried and true methods come naturally to us, this transit inspires us to confront the reality that everything has changed and it's possible the old ways are no longer working. Two conflicting ways of thinking are battling it out and we must choose what will carry us forward. See if you can identify the comfortable but limiting beliefs keeping you from creating a better life for yourself.
On Wednesday, April 27th, Mercury in Taurus sextiles Jupiter in Pisces and Venus conjuncts Neptune in Pisces. Make a conscious effort to open yourself up to new and unexpected influences that inspire you to think beyond the limiting beliefs holding you back. Venus conjunct Neptune is a powerful transit that casts a spell on your perception of the relationships in your life. This transit can be your sweetest dream, worst nightmare or even a little bit of both. The opportunity to connect with your loved ones on a deeper level is unparalleled but be weary if you find yourself projecting your deepest fears onto the people in your life. This week is an important time to both listen to what your community is telling you and be willing to assert boundaries and communicate if you are upset at how people are treating you.
On Friday, April 29th, Pluto stations retrograde in the final degrees of Capricorn. Pluto is the planet ruling our buried wounds coming up for healing and transformation. Pluto has been traversing through the Capricorn section of our chart since 2008. Capricorn is a sign governing judgment, structures, order, and the rule of law. Pluto has been diligently pointing out all the areas in our life that are suffering from lack of investment in the systems that keep us together. In its final years, Pluto retrograde asks us to examine the overwhelming feelings surrounding the judgements we hold about ourselves and our lives. Pluto transits are here to teach us that freeing ourselves from judgements brings up the truth buried under those judgements. Sitting with that truth underneath our judgments sets us free.
Also on Friday, April 29th, Mercury moves into its home sign of Gemini where it will station retrograde May 10th. Mercury’s journey through Gemini promises to aid us in making the connections we need to move forward. Trust in your ability to make decisions with the information available to you at this time. Be okay with revisiting and revising these decisions all through Mercury’s retrograde in May.
On Saturday, April 30th, there is a partial solar eclipse in Taurus. Venus also conjuncts Jupiter in Pisces. These transits are big and hard to ignore! Eclipses are not the time for beginners to attempt ritual work or magic. This is a time to sit back and let the chips fall as they may. Be aware of how the people in your life are showing up during this season. People’s true nature will be harder to hide.
