Astrologically Speaking

Astrologically Speaking:

The big theme for this week is DIVINE NUDGES – Just before we hit Eclipse Season at the end of the week, we’re entering a week all about messages from the divine. This is a week that is calling for us to tune up our listening skills, and spend time fostering that soul whisper within us that is often overpowered by the ego.

So what’s happening this week:

Sunday 24th April: Mercury Conjunct North Node + Square Saturn; The positive thing about this aspect is that it gives people intelligence and good life orientation. They enjoy searching for the background of their motives and they are able to critically and creatively deal with their personality. They are open towards others. They accept criticism easily and they do not avoid conflicts. They manage life challenges with the help of their analytical and logical thinking. The negative side of this aspect is that these people may have poor focus on their life path. Their intellect always finds “good reasons” that stop them from focusing on a set goal. This is the reason why these people are often stubborn, have defensive attitudes and why they cling to things that put them at disadvantage.

Monday 25th April: Mercury Sextile Neptune; This transit represents an opportunity to communicate or negotiate between personal or social ideals and day-to-day reality. It may be that the ideals are more available now or that the everyday environment is more receptive, but shrinking the gap between the ideal and real is possible.

Tuesday 26th April: Venus Sextile North Node; Natal Venus- North Node aspects show relationship between your emotions and conscious motivations. Thus, the South Node represents subconscious motivations that stem from the past and to which there is an inner inclination to cling although they may no longer be relevant or appropriate to the individual’s situation and prospects, while the North Node represents conscious motivations relevant to the present and future, characterized by a desire for the changes in personal psychology.

Wednesday 27th April Mercury Sextile Jupiter; Mercury sextile Jupiter transit favors thinking about and planning your future. A broad outlook and excellent decision-making skills allow you to clearly visualize the preferred path ahead. The positive thinking associated with this transit is another reason why looking ahead is ideal at the moment.

Thursday 28th April: Mercury Trine Pluto; Mercury trine Pluto natal gives a deep and inquisitive intellect. Your powerfully penetrating mind, focus, and determination allow you to hone a particular skill and become an expert in your chosen field. You may be very competitive about serious matters but this does not affect your social life. Friends are important to you but you may prefer fewer true friends who appreciate your depth of thinking.

You love to get to the bottom of things and would make an excellent researcher, spy, or investigator.

The new moon in Taurus on April 30, 2022, is a partial solar eclipse. With positive links to Mars and Uranus, the spiritual meaning of the solar eclipse April 2022 astrology relates to initiating positive change and following your passionate desires.

The alignment of Venus and Jupiter less than one hour after the Taurus solar eclipse 2022 is an excellent omen for love and money. It adds sensual love to the unbridled passions of Mars-Uranus. Finally, this eclipse aligns with asteroid Eros to leave no doubt you will be chasing your passionate desires.

The best way to to work with this week is to spend time fostering that inner soul voice. That can be spending time each day talking to it, and trying to hear its response (not getting frustrated when the voice is so quiet it can’t be heard). Think of it like a seedling, that just needs your love + attention to be heard.
