Sagittarius Sagittarius

April 24 ~ May 8
Authenticity creates its own gravitational pull. But then again, you know this. Whenever we take short cuts or are not true to ourselves, it leads to a dead-end or an experience of the unwanted. Being honest, especially when it is not popular, somehow carries an even greater magnetism because others recognize the courage it takes to speak your truth. The Gods are forever and always watching, so brave moves like this will be rewarded. The month of April had a way of either bringing you to your knees or getting you back in touch with the root of why you are here. Mercury stationed retrograde in fellow fire sign Aries on April 1, that was quite foretelling for the month. If you were barking up the wrong tree or energizing a path that was not meant for you, there was no way you were going down it. We can thank Mercury retrograde for getting us back and true to course. While it may initially feel to cause trouble, it is meant to show you something very specific that you may have been overlooking in the end. If the retrograde was not enough to yank on your chain, then the Total Solar Eclipse in Aries on April 8, was making itself known in matters of the heart, or if your creative juices are better spent in another direction. The truth is, your intuition is the only compass you need. There is a voice inside of you that whispers all day long. “I feel that this is right for me; I know that this is wrong; No teacher, preacher, parent, friend, or wise man can decide what’s right for you ~ just keep listening to the voice that speaks inside” (Shel Silverstein). Your greatest strength, however, goes far further than sheer belief in something, your intuition is what tells you that you KNOW the truth. The truth does not require belief, it simply exists. Mercury stations direct in Aries on Thursday, April 25, and it validates you for honoring this knowing even if others were questioning it. Loving Venus in Aries enters Taurus on Monday, April 29, and then moves into a square to Pluto in Aquarius as we end April and begin May, letting you know that in no uncertain terms, its habit-changing time. Your health says so, whether it’s your physical health, your emotional health, or your mental health. Luckily, Mars enters fire sign Aries the following day, Tuesday, April 30, and is moving with the same energetic frequency as Pluto in Aquarius, to have you brainstorming like never before and putting your ideas with a purpose into action. This is inspiring. It also will take time, which goes back to changing how you spend your time. It’s all about balance. A New Moon in Taurus re-states this same sentiment on Tuesday, May 7, as you simplify your life so it can allow for a deeper dive in a meaningful Soul endeavor. Saturn in Pisces is linked with impressive support to this New Moon to give you all of the emotional strength that you need to impressively pull this whole thing off!

This following passage is true for us all.  “The Whole Future lies in Uncertainty: Live Immediately.  What is set to occur shouldn’t distract you. In fact, your life benefits more from embracing whatever approaches you on the path that lies ahead. Don’t set out on your life with a concrete plan. Forget expectancy and truly immerse yourself into your experiences. When you focus on the here and now, it presents authentic moments which unlocks the true experience of being human” (Seneca).
