Mercury finally makes the ingress to Aries after the retrograde mission in Pisces, and now is conjunct Chiron with the Moon in opposition aspect in inquisitive Libra. Chiron may ask “What has been gained from the Pisces repeat transit“?  Do we have yet more on the table for processing? Is anything clearer today than last month with regards to the Mueller investigation?  With regards to personal life matters? The report is shrouded in mystery. The only person outside of Mueller’s team to have read the report has only caused more controversy.  The full report may be released this week. The Moon moves to oppose Chiron for greater depth of analysis, or at least rationalization about the delay.  The dramatic expulsion of the Wikileaks founder from his 7-year hold-out in the Ecuador Embassy on Apr 11^th could allow for ties to other investigations, as Mercury in Pisces was in a square aspect to Jupiter retro in Sagittarius, igniting a review of past decisions.  Mercury in Aries brings information out of the confusion and drama of the past 2-month transit of Mercury in Pisces.  Brexit is further delayed, while Trump seems more beleaguered than ever, but disavowing knowledge of Wikileaks.

Summary of Major Aspects of the Week

Wednesday April 17^th – More decisive action is taken with Mercury in Aries. The Moon in Libra in an opposition aspect (180 deg, polarizing) to Mercury and Chiron in Aries, as we gain more insight into a past that can help form goals (Mercury in Aries) for the future. The Moon in a quincunx aspect (150 deg, complex) to Uranus in Taurus (also ruled by Venus) for more insightful or perhaps shocking events that unfold over the next few days as the Sun approaches the conjunction aspect (0 deg, combining) with Uranus on April 22^nd.

Thursday April 18^th –  A trine aspect (180 def, flowing) from the Moon in Libra to Mars in Gemini early in the day, as the transmission of data is energized. However, a few hours later the Moon is quincunx aspect (150 deg, complex)to Neptune, so the authenticity of the reports are challenged. The Moon’s square aspect (90 deg, harsh) to Saturn late in the day, puts an end to speculation and rumor.  The square aspect to Pluto that occurs overnight could challenge the unconscious dream state, as a transformation is occurring around us.

Friday April 19^th – With the Sun in the final degree of Aries, the Full Moon is in opposition aspect in Libra, and ingress to Scorpio early in the day (afternoon in Europe and Asia) as the Passover week gets underway, and families gather for the Seder meal and shared traditions.  Mercury in a conjunction aspect (0 dg, combining) to Chiron in Aries, as wisdom helps to transform the day.

Saturday April 20^th – The Sun ingress to Taurus – the first earth sign of the zodiac cycle. The earth’s abundance is celebrated on Earth day on Monday the 22^nd of April, created to promote environmental protection of the planet. Venus ingress to Aries today in a semi–sextile aspect (30 deg, instant) to the Sun, as we are more inclined to seek solutions for the future.  The Moon in Scorpio is in a trine aspect (120 deg, flowing) to Neptune in Pisces as we tend to slow down and enjoy customary relaxation or dissipation (Neptune). A quincunx aspect (150 deg, complex) from the Moon to Mars in Gemini allows for more creative accounts to surface, in order to save face we adjust.

Sunday April 21^st – The Sun in an approaching conjunction (0 deg, combining) to Uranus in Taurus could affect standards of living, income source and a variety of health options that could benefit anyone, while more stress or reversals may also be actualized. As the Moon moves into Sagittarius, it is trine aspect (120 deg, flowing) to Venus in Aries, giving more chance of enjoyment through sporting events. The Moon is trine to Chiron and then Mercury as well today, giving us inner strength to make wiser choices.

Monday April 22^nd – Uranus moves beyond the Sun in Taurus, accompanied by the semi–sextile aspect to Venus in Aries, helping to modify the impact of radical events that Uranus may conjure up. We could, therefore, find a silver lining.  The Moon in Sagittarius forms an opposition aspect (180 deg, tense) to Mars in Gemini.  We as yet may be circumspect as to how to negotiate with the changes in territory. A certain instability continues. Saturn in a closer conjunction aspect (0 deg, combining) to Ketu in Capricorn implies a need for release of power, as the conjunction aspect of Saturn and Pluto will be drawn out over time, it sees that a purging of official office holders will be slowly realized.

Tuesday April 23^rd – The Moon in a conjunction aspect (0 deg, combining), puts expanded action in the judicial court. The exposed scandals of cheating and bribery for university admissions could face action in court now.  Tradition and family influence of power is open for decisive judgment with a semi-sextile aspect from the Moon and Jupiter to Pluto in Capricorn. The power of privilege is being exposed and judged in the judiciary and could have wide ranging ramifications.

Have a successful week!
