Our Stars influence this Week...

As we say good-by to April, and begin May, 2012.

Feelings may seem over the top all week ... Ending with a Saturday night's, Full Moon!

Wow...a full moon reflecting the watery depths of Scorpio!

Strong emotions!

Yes, this can be week, to focus on getting your way emotionally!

True for all signs, but extra helpful, for the water and earth signs...Pisces, Cancer, Scorpio, Virgo, Capricorn, and Taurus.

Monday, April 30, ending our month... we will have a helping hand aspect in the EDT morning hours. Setting this positive pace, is a Leo moon, in positive aspect to Saturn...bringing a reasonable plan outlook and attitude.

Tuesday, we welcome May, 2012. And a Virgo moon, in positive aspect to the Sun, on Tuesday, can act like a gift! Making Tuesday, a good one, towards advancing our desires and progress towards our goals!

Wednesday, May 2, will not be as easy.

The day begins with a negative aspect between, the moon and the love planet Venus! Guard expectations, and your spending habits.

Thursday, May 3, your emotions can be difficult to read, even for you? A tendency to allow others, to drain your energy, or have too much power over your life, might create needless disputes that go into Friday,

May 4.

Then simple discussions might turn into emotionally charged debates. Yet you can overcome, negative results as you mix the strength of your convictions with a deep compassion and inner understanding.

Try to think long term, keeping in mind learned truths, from the past! All those serious thoughts will be due to the Libra moon Saturn conjunction on Friday, mid day May, 4. And that aspect sets in motion our strong desires, for connection, right through the weekend.

All leading us into that passionate Scorpio Full moon, on Saturday night. So try to plan time with loved ones, for the whole weekend.

As desires even intensify Sunday morning, from a tug of war between what we want, and what is really available...Patience!!! By Sunday evening your spiritual outlook and prayer intervene, bringing your weekend to a joyful conclusion.

Now:... How I see, what we can just "Blame It On The Stars", this week!

Monday, April 23, 2012, a Mercury, Uranus, conjunction, brings the unexpected! Enjoy surprises...but that need for sudden change, can make you accident prone!

Slow down, and keep the days activities as free as possible.

Tuesday, April 24, continues that desire to stay busy, and even increases our desire to communicate...very helpful for the Fire and Air signs, to receive a needed lift!

Wednesday, April 25, those long thought out plans can now move forward, the Gemini moon, in good influence to Saturn, makes us interested in clearing up all those communication snags! Enjoy!

Thursday, April 26, and Friday, April, 27...
What is it you are trying to accomplish in the home front? On Thursday, you may suddenly feel overwhelmed! Don't try to push domestic issues for awhile... right now, they need careful thought and extra patience! The appropriate answers, will be much clearer, by Saturday, April, 28.

Also, Saturday's Leo moon, puts you in the mood to party...seek out like minded friends. Especially if yours is a Fire sign! Try to plan a fun, weekend!

Our work week starts out with a few astrological handicaps.


So when you find Monday, April, 16, a bit hard to plan, and somewhat aggravating...You can "Just Blame It On The Stars"

What stars are giving us these unplanned annoyances?
Big ones! The Sun, and Saturn! Wow, that would mean a battle between what our egos want, and what isn't, happening in our lives.

Like Wanting, a good self image, verses what we feel is difficult, serious, and lacking? Oh yes, that might just put you in a negative mood?

What would be most helpful to keep in mind, therefore for Monday, this week is...

we make our own luck and success, and it is not good, or helpful to compare yourself & life to others? Or to let what's going in the lives of others, spoil your day and out look!

Guard activities carefully Monday morning, if you live in the EDT zone, because being impulsive during the morning hours, can bring unnecessary accidents.

Tuesday, April 17, a new way of communicating that will be with us for awhile begins...

Thanks to the planet Mercury, entering back into Aries, as it was before it started back tracking on March 2, 2012.

It is helpful to have it back there too, because all those holdups are at last released towards conclusions. Nice!

However, Tuesday's Pisces moon, we tend to be a little too sensitive. Use your intuition, and be patient with yourself and others, to make the most of your day.

Wednesday April 18, after an emotional morning, we are ready to get going again! The moon enters the sign of Aries EDT just before noon, and that will help to get us motivated!

Like putting on a new spring supper coat? Whatever it is you want to make a plan to change, or get rid of?

Wednesday this week's waning moon will help you! Go on that diet? Stop smoking? Make that important decissions!

You can now be packed with the right, get to it, thought, to be successful. Especially if your own sign is, Aries!

That holds true for Thursday, April 19, too. Because that waning moon, graces your emotions as it harmonizes with the planet of love, beauty and money, Venus.

Thursday, also begins the new cycle of the Sun, in the Earth sign of Taurus..and is my pick of the week, as the most positive, at getting things accomplished.

Seems like this whole week is one of building towards something more active, bringing expansion, and new beginnings?

Try to keep that in mind all day on Friday April, 20...as the moon wanes pulling on the planet Saturn, your mood might be a little somber. Best to use it to clear out what you do not want in your life. Including how you might be letting others effect you negatively?

And then...what can be better to start a new cycle, and move towards the new and positive than, a new moon? And we have just that, on Saturday! Because early morning at 3:18 a.m. EDT April, 21. the moon will be new, in the loving, sensible, earth sign of, Taurus!

Pretty special! A new moon, and a new Sun sign, all in time to help us have a nice weekend.

However, try to break away from your normal routine if you can? A Mercury, Uranus conjunction, on Sunday, is sure to bring surprises, and you want them to be happy ones! A a fun, safe weekend!

The Stars gear us towards renewal, but still, there are a few hold- backs!


Feel like you are poised towards accomplishment, but still cannot seem, to get things off to a firm start?

Well, you can "Just Blame It On The Stars"!

Yes, Mars, the planet of action, is responsible, for those challenges lately. The ones of trying to move freely, ahead.

However, I am happy to say, by the end of this week that changes!

Because the retrograde motion for Mars, that has been with us since Jan. 23, 2012 ends, Saturday April 14.

And as it returns to normal direction, we in turn will benefit, with a more normal forward direction for our own individual lives. Nice!

But in the meantime this week, we still will have, its backward motion, causing lots of delays, & frustrations.

A lot of them being tied to our finances, and our emotional relationships!

Monday, April 9, brings the beginning of some of that, as the moon in truthful Sagittarius... brings past emotional issues, and surfacing financial truths, that we might not be ready to face.

Guard the way you deal with loved ones, and how you spend your money.

Neither of those areas are under clarity,...through the entire week.

And it could be Monday's April 9, activities, that puts you right into a go-no where, scheme.

Not the best day to run smoothly, with a fire moon, being held back by our picky Virgo, retrograde Mars. All with danger, of accidents that could be in the brew, for our Monday, too!

Slow down, and don't let others push your buttons- it would be doing something in anger, or on impulse, causing you harm.

Tuesday April 10, is somewhat better, but snarled communication, is likely by Tuesday late evening, & early morning Wednesday from a moon, square Mercury.

Wednesday April 11, thoughts about wanting change are likely to greet you early as your day begins?

Just remember Not to jump the fence too far, because what is done on impulse during Wednesday's evening hours EST...can just be the Capricorn moon, in square to Uranus, giving you all that sudden rush for change...that you are likely to regret, by mid day on Thursday.

Thursday April 12, we may find ourselves starting out our day in a serious mood! One in which we seem to want to dig deep!

It's serious Capricorn moon time again... with a conjunction to the planet of upheaval, Pluto. Our serious mood to start out our day, can increase the tendency towards quarreling. And that trend will just intensify, greeting us, Friday, Morning.

Friday April 13? What do they say about that? Lucky? Unlucky?

It is up to you? Yes there ARE difficult planetary aspects, for that day! But aren't there always???

The biggest problem on this Friday, the 13, for all of us... would be, miss use, of our position of power, whatever that would be for you? And how you view yourself, and the world.

All coming from the moon, and its hard to please ruler, Saturn, in Square! Just try extra hard to be patient with yourself, and others.

And if you can do that I'm Ok, You're OK, attitude, peace will reign again nicely as the moon takes its turn in free minded Aquarius, on Saturday, and Sunday.

Just what we need, for a better attitude, all in time to bail out the weekend, and to start that nice new trend, of at last feeling progress towards our goals!

So think positive and enjoy a fun out of the norm, weekend!

Get ready for more changes in the Star brew, this week!

True! Stand back and get ready for change!!!

Not only do we have the start of a new month, but emotions and finances are in for a change too.

As the planet Venus begins its cycle in Gemini, on Tuesday, EDT at 11:18 a.m.... it will bump right in to the Moon,... in discordant aspect that had just entered Virgo, earlier at 9:53 a.m. EDT.

All by its self, a Virgo moon can increase our tendency to be picky and analytical.
However, add the bump from Venus just starting out in double trouble Gemini? And watch out!

A lot of us, will be more than picky? Many could actually lean towards mean.

And at the very least, mid day on Tuesday, it would be wise to double check any emotional or financial decisions that you might be making all day, on Tuesday.

Also your day's mishaps on Tuesday, can't all be blamed on the moon!

Because the planet Mercury will again be responsible for lots of the day's indecisions. & aggrecations.

Why? Because it appears to stand still as it again gets ready to take up its normal direct motion, once again.

And with that stand still handy-cap, everything gets delayed! Annoying mix ups, and confusion, the result? Not an easy going Tuesday for sure!

Wednesday April 4, stirs things up too. Mercury finally goes direct 7:11 a.m. (EDT) Yes, once again Mercury appears to be traveling forward, at last starting a time frame for YOU to start to move forward again, too!

Spring in general is the natural time for launching new projects, signing contracts, making major purchases, initiating relationships, But recently all being held back some, due to Mercury's retrograde motion the past few weeks.

However, Wednesday this week... begins a better time when all the activities that were verboten during Mercury Retrograde from March 12 to April 4, 2012, are now safe to pursue. Just try to be patient with them and give yourself a break to know it takes time, for new ventures, like seeds, to take hold?

Thursday April 5, is my pick of the week to be the most productive and positive! Try to enjoy it and make it work for you. A Libra moon, that enters our EDT zone, at 11:32 a.m. can really lift our sprits... and lend its self nicely, to any, and all, new starts! Enjoy!

Our work week closes out on Friday April 5, with a Full Libra moon...putting a strong emotional slant on everything! So expect emotions might have a large impact on your general mood. Also there's a tendency to fall for fantasy too on Friday this week, as sweet Venus' will be in stressful square, to surreal Neptune.

In fact, if you give too much of yourself away, on Friday's Full Moon, happening late afternoon 3:19 EDT. Your emotions, and feelings will be a reminder by late evening, as the moon and Saturn co-join.

Try to remember to restore reason and balance to your emotions to have a good weekend, You'll need a little diplomacy! And even more of that and compassion too, in order to manage a edgy Mars-Venus square, rocking relationships by Saturday night.

Sunday, April 8, Easter! We all pull our emotions in, as a Scorpio moon makes us more secretive, and introspective. Just the right frame of mind to be more spiritual, and grateful! Happy Easter Everyone!!!

Feel like you are back tracking a bit?
Well, you Are! And you can just, blame it on the Stars!

What is happening to give you that trend of repeats, and looking back...is the Planet that rules decissions Mercury, still in retrograde!

Add Sunday's Taurus moon, in a conjunction to Jupiter, and things can get out of hand! Watch those expenditures, and emotions, because what now seems like a good fit, you might very well see very differently in a few weeks.

Monday, March 26, is a bit better, and in fact is my pick of the week, as best to feel a sense of accomplishment, even when you are still dealing with matters that pertain to the past!

Tuesday, March 27, a Gemini moon lends us some energy! And that newly found lift, helps us to make favorable impressions on others, including those in authority.

However, an early morning EDT, moon Uranus negative square aspect, can bring, some nasty surprises! Slow down in travel, and be alert as you make your way to wok, Tuesday, morning.

Wednesday, March 28, pushing yourself and others will bring unnecessary endings. A Sun, Pluto square... creates turmoil around power struggles , and your ego could be the cause of rifts, unnecessary accidents, and explosive behavior.

When the Sun is in Square to Pluto, as it is on Wednesday, and Thursday, this week, we often lose an important celebrity or national role model. Watch the News, for endings, and power struggles.

Thursday, March 29, a moon Mercury square, can make the morning hours difficult, including a down in our general moods. This is a day that gets better as it moves along. The evening hours, bringing some fun, and surprises.

Friday, March 30, keeps that trend of difficult morning hours.

Pluto and the Moon, and Sun, do a negative dance! Slow down, and think, before you make an impulsive headstrong action that causes breakups, and endings. Especially in the morning hours, try to be extra cautious.

Saturday, our thoughts turn back to the basics. And we want to reach out to family. Home concerns take up our attention! Patience! Yes, you are feeling that you have more to do... than what you have time for. All this, as you say good-buy to our very unusual month, of March, 2012

Sunday, new month, April 1, 2012. Don't get fooled!
We welcome our April, with a Fire Leo, moon. A good moon, to make us feel more energized, again! Look for some fun, doing something new, and you'll start out this month, on a Plus!
Happy April everyone!

The Stars This Week: March 19-25, 2012
by Astrology.com March 19, 2012 02:00 AM EST

If You Can Dream It, You Can Do It!

Get ready to enjoy the rush of energy, enthusiasm and inspiration that accompanies the Sun's entrance into Aries on March 19! This week also signals the time of the Spring Equinox, which, along with the confident new Moon in Aries on March 22, always provides an opportunity for a fresh start! Just prepare to tweak some of your ideas as retrograde Mercury returns to spiritual Pisces on March 23.

March 19: The Sun enters Aries

Have you been thinking about turning over a new leaf, or perhaps setting off on an adventure? Anything and everything seem possible now as the Sun enters bold, driven Aries; this is a potent time that marks the Spring Equinox for those above the equator, and the Autumnal Equinox for those below. Are you ready to take initiative? Hopefully you've taken full advantage of all the recent helpful aspects and are now in good position to get your ducks (Rams?) in a row. Draw upon Aries's most courageous attributes to help you remain positive and optimistic now!

March 22: New Moon in Aries

This is no time to be indecisive! Earlier this week, the Sun entered Aries; now, the new Moon occurs in the second degree of this feisty sign, heralding a time of fresh starts. Take the Ram by the horns and do what you can to advance yourself and further your goals. Just keep in mind that Aries is also the sign of the warrior, so be thoughtful of others as you advance your own causes. Uranus and Mercury sit next to this new Moon, a combination that can bring innovative ideas. Follow the lead of writer/philosopher Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (1749-1832): "Whatever you do -- or dream you can do -- begin it. Boldness has genius and power and magic in it."

March 23: Retrograde Mercury re-enters Pisces

Did you know that daydreaming can actually help you? Often the best ideas come to you during your most relaxed moments. As Mercury, representing all forms of thought and communication, backtracks into the sensitive and spiritual sign of Pisces, you can make the most of this transit by spending time in quiet reflection: Listen to beautiful music, take a walk in the park, record your thoughts in a journal. As you take a step back, you'll feel refreshed and inspired. By April 4, when Mercury turns direct, you'll be ready to put your revamped plans and ideas out into the world!

I see it... as an Interesting week! The Season of Spring begins, while we are still looking behind us for clues from the past.

It is just the planet Mercury moving in retrograde that keeps us tuned-in, to what needs to be re-done? Or changed? So heads- up everyone! Give yourself a break when you find that your are having difficulty making up your mind!!!

Thursday, March 22, will be the one that will be the most difficult to plan, this week... it begins with a new moon, Uranus, conjunction, that brings surprises, and out of the norm happenings! Keep in mind that a new moon day sets the trend for the next 3 weeks! And any turbulence on Thursday can just set the stage for the coming weekend when all that newly found energy and passion on Saturday, and Sunday, gives you complications, that involve others!
