CosmicExpress, week of 8 April

We’re looking at the week beginning 8 April 2007. The Third Quarter begins on 10 April. It’s time to harvest your good work. After the 10th, it’s important to release those things that are no longer important for the next lunar cycle. 

Theme transits this week: It’s a week of some very potent, long-lasting configurations. Jupiter continues to square Uranus all week. Jupiter continues to expand the cosmic roller-coaster, and provides the spark to expand into the new. 

Mercury squares Pluto all week. This is intense, investigatory thought and a tendency to argument. There’s a drive to win in interactions with people that may cause conflict. Always keep your perspective in conversation this week.

Saturn continues to opposes Neptune for the next several weeks. But this week we pick up a long-lasting Kite. There’s a Grand Trine in Fire between the Sun, Jupiter, and Saturn. Sun and Jupiter both sextile Neptune. Saturn is cosmic structure, while Neptune is the cosmic solvent. Combined we’re trying to dissolve the very structure that we’re trying to build. Work to maintain health by positive nutrition, exercise, and meditation. Avoid alcohol and mood-altering drugs, and remember that medication may not work the way you expect. I think this is purification time - and it may echo into politics and business, too. But the Kite exerts a powerfully positive influence. Sun/Jupiter/Saturn is the successful development of a philosophy of life that is truly supportive of life and spirit. The Sun/Neptune and Jupiter/Neptune aspects put the accent squarely on the spiritual.

This is the time to develop your plans to take you forward. I’d take a bit of time this week to formulate your real life goals. Get them squarely focused: image them within if you can. The positive energy of Saturn/Neptune can then use spirit to transform reality.

On the 8th we start the week as the Moon conjoins Jupiter and Pluto and enters the Grand Trine. Do your internal planning work today. Moon/Pluto can be obsessive in emotional matters, so keep your perspective and avoid power plays, especially in your close relationships.

9 Apr:  The Moon sextiles Mars today, giving added warmth to emotional feeling.

10 Apr:  The Moon forms the Third Quarter today. Move to release those things you no longer need, and prepare for the next lunar cycle in about a week. 

11 Apr: The Moon trines Venus and sextiles Mercury today. Another excellent time for relating to those you love. Communication channels are open: use them!

12 Apr: Here’s the high energy point for the week. The Moon conjoins Neptune and enters into the Kite. If you didn’t do your planning work on the 8th, do it today. Better still, spend time doing creative visualization of your next steps in life. Formulate your plans and put the energy into realizing a powerful, internal, emotional image of it.

13 Apr:  After yesterday the  Moon moves to conjoin Mars. Emotional energy may be high - enjoy time with those you love.

14 Apr: We end the week with the Moon conjoining Uranus and squaring Jupiter. This is again excellent for communication with those you love - and gives you the possibility for some unique experiences and feelings. Experiment a bit! The only risk is the potential for misunderstanding or argument - and possibly excessive nervous tension.
