Astrology Report for April 9-April 23, 2011

This week has several Green Light Days:


1. Saturday April 9 after 5:02 PM until Monday at 2:26 PM.
2. Again on Monday at 11:37 PM until Thursday April 14th at 12:42 AM.
3. Again on Thursday beginning at 2:40 AM until 11:15 PM on Friday when the Moon is parallel Venus.
The Green Light days translates to a positive outcome for your efforts this week however, there is a hitch. For one Mercury is retrograde until April 23, 2011 bringing better luck for your activities that involve anything that qualifies as "second time around". Another snag is seen with Mars headed for a difficult square to Pluto on Monday April 11 and then moves into an opposition to Saturn on April 18th. This adds up to a heavy workload with few rewards. You may be operating in the red until the Sun enters Taurus on Wednesday April 20th. The Full Moon on April 17th is packing another large Moon while at the closest distance from earth this month. The Mars and Saturn opposition looms large at the full moon but defines the closeout point of a long hard wait. It appears that the energy lifts by midweek April 20th.

A question from Sally Pelliccia came in today. "What was the connection to 1995 when I related it to the Jupiter and Saturn opposition. Here is my answer.

A couple of weeks ago I mentioned how 1995 was back up again by astro-memory when Jupiter and Saturn made their opposition at 14 Aries/Libra. I should have included 1996 as there was a pair of lunar eclipses at those same degree in October 1995 and April 1996. You may continue to find connections with that six month period. Even though Jupiter has left the scene, retrograde Saturn will pass this way again for two weeks in August.

Enjoy the week and drop me a line with your feedback.

Times EDT Saturday, April 09, 2011

Saturday The day begins with a void of course Moon period in Gemini until 5:01 PM when the Moon enters Cancer through Monday night. Mercury in Aries is retrograde for another two weeks. Our thinking is highly active although not focused. Neptune's recent change to Pisces on April 4, 2011 has created a fog with many smoke screens clouding issues.

2:48:54 AM The dress is all wrong and the couple are at odds with Venus and Juno, the two most versed in relationships are opposed at 15° Virgo/Pisces. At least you are able to see the nature of the problem which involves cosmetic finishes.

4:50:50 AM Pluto turns retrograde at 4:50 AM until September 16, 2011. Pluto’s overbearing energy brings added pressure to an already emotionally loaded situation. Those in the seat of power attempt to force their will on others. The US Congress has decided on a budget after pushing the limit before a government shutdown. Heavy consequences are indicated by Pluto’s station at the midpoint of Mars and Saturn. Pluto rules births, deaths and abortion. It was the abortion issue that held up the decision of the US budget. You may experience a visit of your greatest fears when you are flushed with anxieties of being overrun by finances or some type of infiltration/infestation.

3:36:16 PM The Sun and Mercury join for an important announcment while conjunct at 19° Aries. This is an eclipse degree which reflects back to 2005 when a solar eclipse occurred here. The Pope John Paul died and Prince Charles and Camilla were married under the influence of that eclipse. Now Prince William and Kate will marry. The US Congress has decided on a budget after pushing the limit before a government shutdown.

5:01:40 PM The Moon enters Cancer. During this Moon sign you have positive energy to move forward with matters that you have previously attempted.

5:18:33 PM Moon trine Nepune for an inspired notion soon to be uprooted.

8:06:03 PM Moon square Uranus is abrupt and disruptive.

10:45:31 PM Something you perceived as worthy has suddenly lost its value or been disturbed.

Sunday Sunday April 10, 2011. This is a Green Light Day. Go for it if it qualifies as ongoing or second time around events. The Moon's final aspect is a ontra parallel to Pluto on Monday afternoon which colors the outcome of the activities during the Cancer Moon period. This indicates the need to compromise or adhere to the demands of others. You must meet the requirements to increase or gain ground or money. Family may dispute over rights.

4:52:19 AM Moon square Mars adds to conflict.

6:21:41 AM Family needs are your primary concern. Moon trine Ceres.

7:00:52 AM The pressure from others is overbearning. You may feel the need to micromanage your enviornment.

3:05:49 PM Take a break for something pleasureable. Enjoy your company.

5:44:41 PM A low mood invades a nice day.(Moon square Saturn.) Eat something and enjoy a
nice evening with family and your closest friends.

Monday Monday April 11, 2011. This is a Green Light Day. Go for it if it qualifies as ongoing or second time around events. The Moon's final aspect is a ontra parallel to Pluto on Monday afternoon which colors the outcome of the activities during the Cancer Moon period. This indicates the need to compromise or adhere to the demands of others. You must meet the requirements to increase or gain ground or money. Family may dispute over rights.

2:03:12 AM There is something to celebrate with Venus and Jupiter aligned for a temporary contra parallel.

2:15:31 AM Moon trine Venus.

3:03:02 AM Moon square retrograde Mercury.

6:28:00 AM Pluto is 60° to Ceres. There is an opportunity to compromise for the good of all.

7:53:03 AM Retrograde Mercury is 30° to Venus. There are attempts to smooth over a difficult situation with information or topics once before known are reintroduced into a delicate setting. Visits with friends and relatives are pleasantly received.

8:05:23 AM The First Quarter Moon at 21 Cancer occurs at 8:05 AM. Action is taken to forward a goal that was seeded nine months ago when a New Moon occurred on July 11, 2010. This is a signifcant lunar phase because the New Moon was a solar elcipse and carries a strong message. Matters begin to take form

2:26:48 PM The Moon is considered void of course until 11:37 PM after a contra parallel to Pluto. This indicates the need to compromise or adhere to the demands of others. You must meet the requirements to increase or gain ground or money. Family may dispute over rights.

4:40:55 PM Mars in Aries is square retrograde Pluto in Capricorn. I call this "the steamroller aspect". Steamrollers are effective for flattening the surface to create a flat hard top for a new road. On a symbolic level it may indicate that those in a position of power may mow others down with greed and a severe competitive drive at the root of the intention. On a positive note, the objective is to accomplish a mission at all cost and pull out all stops. Therefore for those planning to take charge of life and redesign a new path, you may succeed in erasing all existing remnants of the past or current setting to assure a new future but you must avoid ruthless advances. This combination allows for very serious strategic planning and allow one to cut a new design. Impatience shortchanges strategic plans which may affect failure. Speeders get tickets. Over drawn bank accounts rack up fees. Pornography is in the news.

The physiological indications necessitate surgery; irritable bowl disorder. Psychological indications may include a fear of being "raked over hot coals"; obsessive drives and behaviors; some may experience a bout of paranoia with difficulty discriminating between reality and tricks of the mind. This may be true for those in positions of power who feel threatened by both insiders and outsiders. Deep nervous tension that is hard to sort through. Good day to process anger in your therapist's office. There are strong sexual urges with this combination. A strong drive for dramatic core change.
For personal use you might be serious about the direction of your future. Avoid allowing strong sexual urges to interfere with your primary objective. This is a time for personal transformation. Access your own power and reflect on help from those in positions of power but do not approach them unless you are also in a powerful seat. Break out of the grip of the monkey on your back by surrendering your grip on the reigns. Things to avoid are annoying symbols of greed and misuse of othe'rs finances. Proceed only if you are well prepared. Dig deep and plan to cut new fabric.

11:37:04 PM 4/11/2011 The Moon enters Leo until Thursday morning. There is another green light period during this Moon sign becaue the Moon's final aspect is parallel retrograde Mercury. You are sucessful when creating a paper that describes your creative principal or project. Executive desicions are supported by others. By using Mercury retrogrades strong suit for any attempt which qualifies as a second time around, including marriage to the same person.

11:59:13 PM Mercury is conjunct Jupiter to broaden our minds and act quickly to effect change where there is a problem.
