Starcodes for this week

Momentum Builds!

Momentum builds this week, the energy gets pushy as the Aries Sun squares Jupiter, Saturn resonates with a sextile to Pluto, and Mars prepares to enter its home sign of Aries on Thursday. This can help us overcome procrastination and kick into gear where we have a clear road. But, like a revving car engine, if there is no clear road forward, we can just race into a wall or run into one another. Or run over a precipice and into challenging world events. This week we need to clarify small to large goals and stay on target.

Engage in powerful dialogue as the weekend begins and Mercury forms an expansive trine to expansive Jupiter. We’ll be talking about future opportunities, but those possibilities better be based in reality; underneath that expansive view is a need to be hard-nosed, not to imagine things to be better or worse than they are, but to see with clear eyes.

The weekend brings a moody, focused Scorpio Moon, good for some long, tough, internal talks with ourself over what it is that we truly want in this lifetime, and a comparison of where we thought we'd be- and where we are now, both as an individual and as a country. In response we can either get depressed, celebrate, or use this comparison to motivate the next steps.

Use the Energy Wisely

We're at an astrological era turning point during these few years; we can feel the major shifts cooking underneath the dramas of the moment though we can't see yet the details of that future landscape. It is essential for us to take stock often and ask those big questions to guide the changes.

Early in the week the Moon in flexible, restless Sagittarius forms empowering trines to Saturn, Neptune, and the Sun in Aries. If we don't spread ourselves too thin, this fire line-up can help us juggle possibilities and keep the energy rolling. 

The momentum can keep on rolling midweek as the Moon in organized and ambition-encouraging Capricorn, energized by a motivating Mars-Uranus sextile, asks us to give our ideas form, structure, and a checklist. Mars enters feisty Aries on Thursday and ups the ante. Clarifying our ambitions is important, but whether that is a good thing depends on our direction. Watch for irritations, military moves, confrontations, and exploding situations. Use this energy wisely.

Friday, April 3: Remember kindness first on this complex and layered day; our nerves can feel sensitive, exposed, both abrasive and abraded as the Scorpio Moon opposes Venus and squares Mars. Possibilities abound as Mercury trines Jupiter, but it can be hard to see them beyond some present limits which are now painfully obvious to us. Notice relief as some uncertainty or burden shifts as the day progresses. Process loss, fear of loss, or longing for solitude as Venus squares Pluto. Work around cynicism that can be a response to grief. Don’t pour oil on any fire. Breathe deep, hold hands, and look for sparks of joy ahead.

Mercury trine Jupiter 5:28 AM MDT, Moon enters Scorpio 6:10 AM, Moon opposes Venus 4:25 PM, Moon squares Pluto 4:26 PM Venus squares Pluto 4:37 PM. 

Saturday, April 4: Even as the Aries planets nag us into action we’re called to deep underground wells of feelings, both conscious and unconscious, as Jupiter in Cancer, Mercury in Pisces, and the Scorpio Moon trine. Swim in this deep ocean. Notice what motivates people even though they may not be aware of that motivation; look to the energy streams under their words. Be honest about personal experience, but don't armor up at the slightest slight; the present fire-sign line-up can spark our defenses quickly, but not necessarily productively, to protect our sensitive underbellies. It furthers to dig deep, share those deep feelings, research, prepare a garden by turning over the soil, and look beyond shallow answers.

Moon trine Jupiter 1:42 PM MDT, Moon trine Mercury 4:24 PM

Sunday, April 5: A contemplative mourning, but we can get edgy and snap that Scorpio Moon sting if we feel guilt-tripped into doing something we don't want to do. It's important that we have a moment of freedom to unwind at our own pace, find quiet, and listen to what body and soul need as the Sun squares Jupiter. When the Moon heads into interactive Sagittarius late afternoon and trines perceptive Neptune, our antenna are more ready to tune into others with an open heart and curiosity.

Monday, April 6: This could be an efficient Monday, ready to get things started though our thoughts scatter easily and we can start too many pots cooking at the same time as the Sagittarius Moon trines Saturn in Aries. New ideas from last week start to fall into place, we can marshal the logistics necessary. People will need help grounding in the buzz; offer a quick, passing hug and tasty foods to help us stay embodied while we speed up. Notice migrating birds, traveling people, international news on the screen.

Moon sextile Pluto 4:10 AM MDT, Moon trine Saturn 6:20 AM.

Tuesday, April 7: Keep up recent momentum, listen for the one next thing that needs to get done next. Don't be overwhelmed or get spread too thin, do take on one thing at a time and use the Sagittarius Moon trine the Sun and Mercury in Aries- all fire signs- to motivate. It's not time for long deep talks over tough personal issues, instead, be honest and succinct about feelings and needs, delineate the situation. Speak, listen, and contemplate. Just leave retribution out. We’re not the only ones building momentum this week, so keep an eye on competitors or aggressors but stay focused on the goal. 

Moon trine Sun 5:04 AM MDT, Moon trine Mercury 10:44 AM

Wednesday, April 8: Our momentum gets extra muscles while the Moon enters industrious, willful Capricorn while energizing Mars sextiles Uranus. Clear the road. Don’t try to push others around just to relieve some inner agitation. If someone tries to manipulate or control inappropriately, look for their insecurities which may be running the show and either offer reassurance- if it can be done honestly- or hold a firm, clean line.  If the bigger goals are too far out, start small: clear a drawer, deal with one pile, email one politician. Cheer one another on for any step forward.

Moon square Mars 3:51 AM MDT, Moon enters Capricorn 6:04 AM, Mars sextiles Uranus 10:11 AM, Moon square Neptune 10:05 AM, 11:05 AM, Moon square Saturn 7:15 PM.

Thursday, April 9: Energizing Mars enters Aries and fires up our impatience, rebellion and encourages our brave heroism, brings out our inner adolescent to reinvent the world. Or it can instigate performative machismo and aggression. Some people will suddenly step out of a difficult situation; others might have the nerve to speak their love or their authentic self. We can use this rebellious spirit against any dysfunction in our life and create our own organizational forms. Enjoy this potential energy boost but avoid unnecessary battles of will at home; our nervous systems can crank hot very quickly and have trouble regulating our emotions. Celebrate personal expression.

Moon trine Venus 6:26 AM MDT, Mars enters Aries 1:35 PM, Moon opposes Jupiter 3:09 PM, Moon square Sun 10:51 PM.
