Hi, this is Dietrech Pessin with the Astrology Report for the week ahead.

We have a New Moon today. That New Moon takes place at… let us see, what time. 4:01 PM. It is right after that. Right around that time is a really good Green Light period. If you want to use it to advance your goals, it will be the only one for a couple of days, a couple of more days into the week. Because the Gemini Moon to follow is very tricky. It has too many complications to be useful for some type of business adventure. Or even forwarding your goals if you want to go buy a new sofa, or a new scarf, or anything that you would like to do. Because the Taurus energy for the New Moon definitely about possessions, acquisition, acquiring those things that you want and you need.

The Moon sign will change at 10:22 PM. That is when the Moon will enter the sign of Gemini for the following couple of days.

The first thing the Moon is going to do is conjunct Uranus. Now, I think Uranus has been the culprit for all of these troubles lately. There have been so many complications and difficulties upside down, inside out.

Uranus changed signs on the 25th of April, and that is just about when it seems like chaos entered our daily routine.

Each time that a planet is going to connect with Uranus, we might see more of it, think more of it.  We are going to have that on Sunday when Mercury joins up with Uranus. It is at 8:10 PM, but I bet we are going to feel that all day long. It is not necessarily just going to be that particular time for that aspect. The Moon being in Gemini has things in a multi-level and a multi-layer, many things going on. Maybe you can see under a façade. Maybe you can see through what is said to be the truth. You can uncover lies and any type of deception with the Moon. It is going to be Moon in Gemini, Mercury in Gemini, Uranus in Gemini. Wow, a lot of things that are being said. Before they are done, they need to be sorted out.

I just want to mention a friend of mine's 84th birthday, Michelle Hunter. She is probably not in our listening zone, but she is having a very important 84th birthday today, Saturday the 16th.

So going back over the 17th with that Mercury conjunct Uranus, that is pretty much the headliner on that one.  Gemini Moon is with us also on Monday.

So, we have some big changes going on. On Monday, planets changing their signs. We have first Mercury going into Gemini, then Mars changing signs going into Taurus. This is during the Gemini Moon sign. Then Venus goes into Cancer. So that Gemini Moon sign, that is why it is difficult, because there is too many changes. When you have a planet changing signs, whatever was going on just ahead of that, just before that, gets dropped. Or you change your mind about it. Or somebody discourages you, and you drop it. Or you just completely change your direction. Well, we have those bumps three times while the Moon is in the sign of Gemini, so there is not going to be any continuity.

We will get, as I mentioned, with Mercury in Gemini, a lot of thinking about particularly what is being said. A lot of information and gossip traveling around with that Moon sign as well.

Then we Have…  rather that that planet sign Mercury into Gemini,

So then still with the Moon in Gemini, Mars will enter the sign of Taurus, that is going to be on the 18th Monday. That will be at 6:25 PM. Not all done with the changes because Venus still needs to go and make her change. She will leave Gemini and go into Cancer. that will be at 9:05 PM on Monday the 18th.

Hello, Mary Butler. She has a birthday on the 18th.

Then we have a Moon sign change that happens at 9:46 PM. The Moon enters the sign of Cancer. It will be there for a couple of days. Let us see, when does that change? It changes on Wednesday. The Moon will enter the sign of Leo.

But before then, we want to check in with Tuesday on the 19th during the Cancer Moon sign. We see Mercury and Neptune making an aspect. This one has a really vivid imagination. High ideals about what it thinks, how it thinks things ought to be. So, you have to be careful. You want to evaluate the value of what is being offered, as far as information goes, before spreading any stories around.

Also, Venus and Mars are in an aspect. This is one of opportunity. This could bring about help from somebody important. You could seize an opportunity, or maybe you are just going to let it fly. But it is Venus and Mars. It might be something important. Maybe about interpersonal relationships, meeting, new love life. Maybe there is somebody you really want to talk to. You could be dealing with a friend or a sibling with this important relationship. Relationships tend to be much more friendly and less sexual. Your good buddies. That is the harmony that comes in with this aspect. Cooperation is implied. So, you may take short trips with the friend. Also, long trips tend to be very simple, coming and going, not a whole lot going on in between. Usually, success is implied when there is a sextile going on like that. So, it is a real good aspect to have in your court when you are making plans to do something on a on a good day.

There is another aspect with Mercury, this time it is parallel Jupiter. This definitely wraps your mind around some expanded thoughts. Mercury, however, is square to the Lunar Nodes. This might indicate that the people that are coming and going are not particularly friendly. They may be saying things that are inappropriate or not agreeing to the plans that are being made. So, I would be aware of the fact that Mercury could be kicking up a ruckus.

Mercury is also making a trine to Pluto. This is where conversation gets really intense and deep. That is with May 19th, Tuesday, 6:53 PM is when it is exact. But those types of aspects we experience them all day and all through the night.

On the 20th, that is on Wednesday the Moon is in Cancer. Let us see when that Cancer Moon changed. That was way back on Monday. We had it through Tuesday and into Wednesday. It will be in the sign of Cancer until 10:48 PM. That is on Wednesday.

One of the things about Wednesday that is a big deal is the Sun leaves the sign of Taurus and enters Gemini. It will be there for a month starting on May 20th.

It will go there until that time in June, around June 21st, when we have the first day of summer.

The Leo Moon comes in at 10:47 PM. That Leo Moon will see conversations between Mercury and Pluto. Things get even deeper, more intense on the 21st Thursday.

Then the Moon joins Uranus and is also joining with the Sun. The Sun and Uranus have something particularly important going on. On the 21st, 2:03 PM is when that Sun Uranus aspect is cooking up something unique and unusual. Maybe it is showing where things advance in a particular way that are unpredictable and brazen.

You can also say during that Leo Moon, the day changes. May 22nd comes in. That is next Friday, and the exact aspect again pops up between the Sun and Uranus. So, take something seriously that they are putting forward, something inventive. 10:06 AM is when that happens next Friday. That is an important aspect to be able to understand.

I do not know, maybe the craziness that is going on too. That could help to relieve it to have the Sun finally conjunct and show all of what is going on underneath that experience of Uranus.

Last year, July 7th, which is Victor's birthday, by the way, we had Uranus go into the sign of Gemini then on that day. And what we had with all that Uranus energy is that it stayed there in that sign until November 7th. So, we have an experience, a history, with this Uranus and Gemini energy. You may want to think back to last summer and see what experiences you might want to review. Then it went retrograde and turned direct.

This April 25th is when Uranus went into Gemini. It goes retrograde this September. That will be on the 10th all the way up to 5°(degrees) of Gemini. So, getting quite deep. It will be going backwards until February 8 of 2027. So, Uranus is going to be on the table for discussion quite a bit over this next year.

The Moon is in Virgo on Friday. Well, late night. That is actually going to be next Saturday morning at 2:57 AM. So, we will have that Leo Moon with us up until then, until next Saturday. So that is it for the week.

You can find a copy of this on my website at Lunar-Shadows.com. Kimberly Chin will transcribe graciously. Thank you, Kimberly. And I want to say hi to Julie. She is always there for us, keeping us connected. And Victor, it is your turn. Take it away. Okay, that is all for now. Bye.

Victor: Hey, Dietrech is with us on line now. Every Saturday, morning. Good morning,

Dietrech: Good morning. Victor. We have an interesting week. Well, we never not have an interesting week. But the planets are arranged in such a way that there are not too many interactions between them where, normally we have a lot. We have a long list of events to talk about during the week.

This week, mostly Pluto is in the game. So, Pluto is about power and about change, deep transformation and change. So, if that relates to something that you are feeling or doing, a lot of it is feelings.

Pluto rules the sign of Scorpio, and the Moon is in the sign of Scorpio. while Pluto is being so showy this week, it will not be in the sign of Scorpio when Pluto makes its change. That will happen on Wednesday. But the Scorpio Moon leads into it.

So, Scorpio is about doing things in secret. If you want to take the kids toys and hide them so that you have some peace and quiet or something. Or if you want to do anything in secret, this is the Scorpio Moon for it. Although you have to consider the fact that it may not work out the way you plan, because it is complicated. That is the nature of Scorpio, it is complicated. Every time you hear somebody ask a question, that is the answer. Well, it is complicated. Which means they are still hiding all the matters. There is a lot of research that you can do that will pay off, which would be the best thing, the best way to apply your energy. Then, if you can have a way that you are less straightforward with people, so that you can continue through the process that you are working on. That would be good. Get rid of things that are that have worn out their usefulness.

So, this is a spring-cleaning Scorpio Moon. You want to consider that crime may not pay off. Secrets and dishonesty do not pay off in general. So, if you just go it alone. If you are trying to hide things, matters may be too complicated to ever succeed. Your research is faulty, so be careful about what you think you dragged up. Things will come out in the open. We are under the influence of a Full Moon. So that in and by itself, helps things to be showy and show off.

One big thing that is happening today is that Mercury changes signs, goes into the sign of Taurus. So, Mercury in Taurus has a very plotting type of thinking process, and is very interested in methodology. So, it is important. The important thing is traditional knowledge. You learn things in a slow, methodical way, hands on manner. You stick to old ideas. You may fear having to learn anything new when Mercury is in Taurus, because you are going on the notion of what you already know, and you want to prove it.

Well, in comes the Sagittarius Moon. So, what we have also for May 2nd is a Moon sign change will come in tomorrow morning. So, all the way into late night, we have that Scorpio Moon.

Then on Sunday, the Moon goes into Sagittarius. That is going to be the happy sign. This is the sign where you want to get up and go out, be outside, be playful. Be among others who are happy to be outside and be among the rest of the world. We have all day, Sunday, the Sagittarius, Moon sign. This is when you do not have a strong sense of direction, but you do not really need it. You just go and Ad Lib all of your situations and go towards events. Also, you can succeed on optimism. That is the key word for Sagittarius, is optimism. People forget your verbal blunders and hypocrisy. But if you do not blow all the rules of etiquette because they will not serve you. Well, there is a relaxed attitude that goes along with the Sagittarius Moon sign.

We have that also on Monday, the Moon is quincunx the Sun. That is life is messy. Clean it up. That is early before the day begins. But some people might be getting, up around quarter to seven in the morning. That quincunx might be prompting you to get up because maybe you heard a noise and you need to tend to it.

Also, throughout Monday, we have a couple of excellent things going on. The Moon and Jupiter make contact. Mars and Jupiter, they make contact on Monday evening, at 10:00 PM. This is an aspect that drives people towards expanding their awareness, going places, maybe making a plan to travel. Tuesday, the Sagittarius Moon is still with us until 3:15 PM.  Then the Moon goes into Capricorn.

The Capricorn Moon is particularly about business and about structure. You do not want to give up anything that you want. It is a time for any type of time to be honest. You may not be totally honest, but you may find you need to be honest. You tend to act out the limits or normal perimeters and take the law into your own hands during a Capricorn Moon. So, you could be forced to operate in enemy territory. So, whatever that means for you.

Mercury and Pluto, in their square aspect is the thinking process objects to all the power and control of Pluto.

Wednesday, we still have a Capricorn Moonshine. Pluto does go retrograde on Wednesday, and that is for several months. So, it happens at 5° (degrees) of Aquarius. If you are an Aquarius, a Leo, a Taurus or Scorpio, this could be completely pointed to whatever your goals are and your interests are.

The Capricorn Moon is with us all the way into Thursday, until 8:43 PM. The last aspect is the Moon links up with Venus. that is a good sign, making this a Green Light period.

So, we would say that Green Light starts after Pluto goes retrograde on Wednesday. That would be, let us say, around noon. We have a Green Light noon time Wednesday, all the way through till 8:43 PM on Thursday. Then we have a void of course Moon sign until 3:27AM on Friday.

The Moon's last aspect for the Aquarius Moon that comes in on Friday, will be a sextile that is 60°. That says there is an opportunity, a big opportunity there. That Aquarius Moon sign is happy to be involved with friends or groups, like-minded people. You stand out because you are different. If you are working, doing something during the Aquarius Moon sign.  You have the ability to do things unexpectedly or in a manner that seems totally out of character. So that is it for the week.

You have a copy of this on my website at Lunar-Shadows.com. The Moon is in Aquarius also next Saturday. If you want to plan something with friends, that is a good time to do that. or like-minded groups of people, maybe that want to protest something like that. Okay, that is it for the week, and we will speak again next week. Thank you, Victor.

Hello, this is the astrology report for the period from the 25th of April through Friday, May 1st. The Moon is in Leo today until 9:04 PM, when it enters Virgo. But the headliner for today is not just today, but for several years. That is Uranus entering the sign of Gemini now through May in 2033. Uranus made a brief visit in Gemini last year from July 7 - Nov 7, 2025. 

So, if you feel like it is a Mercury retrograde and everything is crazy and you haven't been sleeping, well... You wake up in the middle of the night many times. It is Uranus. It is sort of poking at us. It is very difficult to deal with but it will calm down. It is the planet of sudden, abrupt change. So, if there are things that feel as if they are hard to pin down. You cannot get your ideas straight or moving in a straight line or trying to accomplish what you want to accomplish. You may want to take breaks, walk away and come back. But keep a note about what it is that you are trying to accomplish.

So that last time that Uranus was in Gemini… well, we did have it last year for several months. it backed out, it went in, and backed out. But before that in history was 1942 to 1949. We remember, or are reminded, that the Second World War was part of that picture of Uranus in Gemini. It is a very difficult energy to contain. It is like, cats. Trying to get cats in a bag. It is crazy, crazy energy.

We have something else that is going on that adds to the pressure. That is the Sun square Pluto today. at 10:32 or rather, 12:32 PM today. There is lots of issues of power that may be very uncomfortable. They may be things that you are learning from the outside. Maybe about global news. Maybe about the war. Maybe you have a fear of the war spreading. There is also unconscious behavior that reveals underlying motivation. So, like things just popping out sideways. They are really coming from your subconscious.

So, at 8:50 PM Uranus enters Gemini. It will be there until May of 2033 so we have a long time here to learn all about Uranus in Gemini. The Moon is in Leo when that happens. The Moon will make its final approach, well, that is pretty much during the Leo Moon. It is in its final stage. It changes at 9:04 PM, when the Moon enters Virgo.

The Virgo Moon is seeing things like Venus and Mercury making an aspect. So, this aspect seeks connections, some of which are our advisors. Also, the Sun and the North Node of the Moon is looking for connections and connectors as well.

So, the Virgo Moon… Also, we will see on Sunday, Venus making aspect to Neptune, and then Mercury squaring Jupiter. So, there would be a dreamy state of mind with Venus and Neptune. Maybe you want to go out and buy things to decorate your house. Or join up with friends for a nice lunch.

Then Mercury and Jupiter are in an aspect. They are in a difficult aspect, where there is a squabble. So, there is something there that gets blown out of proportion, so be careful. Maybe you want to have an early lunch of sorts with friends with the Virgo Moon. Let that go, maybe by noontime, so that you do not get into a squabble. You do not want to complicate your life.

There is an aspect. The Moon is quincunx Mars, more of that difficult, angry squabble energy.

Then we have going into Monday. We still have a Virgo Moon during that time. So, Sunday and Monday, Virgo Moon. Virgo Moon will go with us all the way till Tuesday, till 5:02 AM. Then the Moon enters the sign of Libra.

So, on Tuesday, the Moon. The last thing the Moon will do is make an aspect to the Sun. So, this can bring some positive results. If you want to plan ahead for some business things. There is a Full Moon coming up on May 1st. So, you want to put all the cards on the table and everything out in the open, especially mid-week, and see what you have. See how you can hold on to maybe some issues that you have. Or maybe choose some plans of business. Very hard to please. This Libra Moon is difficult moving forward, especially as it makes aspects to Pluto.

Then it will aspect the Lunar Node. This creates difficulties with others and Venus, the ruling planet of relationships and others.

The Sun and the Moon will quincunx. That is life's messy, clean it up. And that is a Libra Moon and the Taurus Sun sign.

I was reading about something in Taurus; there is an asteroid called Apophis. I do not know if you have heard about it. It is very large, and it is headed to pass by Earth in 2029. But it I was very curious about it, reading about it. If you want to look it up, Apophis. The Moon will be opposite in Libra, opposite to Saturn. As we get closer to the Full Moon, that would be at 10:06 PM on Tuesday night. So that causes difficulties with others as well. but it also could upset your stomach, upset your evening.

Anyway, moving into Wednesday. This Libra Moon, it is supposed to end well, but it really appears pretty difficult along the way.

There is a beautiful aspect during the Libra Moon between Venus and Jupiter, they are parallel. So, they join. A parallel is like a conjunction, when two planets line up together, but the parallel last a lot longer. So, this parallel between Venus and Jupiter would be on Thursday afternoon. So, we can expect to feel the effects of that. Maybe in the way that you are engaged with in your relationships. Maybe finding new ways to communicate with one another to share things that are on a deeper level. That deeper level may continue as the Moon goes into Scorpio. But there is a void of course Moon that I want to mention. April 30th at 1:32 PM until 3:02 PM, when the Moon goes into Scorpio. So, you want to drop all of your plans and wait for that little period of void of course Moon to finish up.

But Libra Moon has that long Green Light. Let me review that again. Beginning at 5:02 AM on the 28th running through the 29th until Thursday the 30th, at 1:32 PM. so a long Green Light period.

Then we have the Scorpio Moon sign, 3:02 PM on the 30th, that is Thursday. This one is difficult, because the Scorpio Moon has things it needs to settle, and Mercury is calling the shots because it will cause an interruption of plans and an upset. So, Mercury is the planet of thinking and connecting and communication style. Friday we see the Full Moon 1:22 PM May 1st. That is at 11° (degrees) of Scorpio. So, if you are a Taurus or a Scorpio, a Leo or an Aquarius, this might be particularly interesting to you as you plan for your week ahead. 1:22 PM is when that Full Moon occurs.

Venus and Saturn are involved in that Full Moon picture. That would be a positive aspect joining others for long term connections. That is pretty much it for the week, as we go into next weekend, also with a Scorpio Moon next weekend. Okay, that is it for the week.

You can find a copy of this on my website, at Lunar-Shadows.com. You can also listen to it again the recording on Victor's show, WZBC [90.3 FM Boston Massachusetts] Lunar-Shadows.com, okay, that is it for the week. Thank you.
