Mars is on the move this week, entering Aries on April 9.  As of mid-week, there is an Aries stellium in the skies: the Sun, Mars, Saturn and Neptune are all in Aries.  This is a lot of active, fiery energy.  There could be a great desire to act, but with Saturn in the mix, it's best to get your facts and details together first.  

Which House is in Aries in your chart? The themes represented by that House may be in the spotlight for you personally this week and next.  

If you're an Aries, considering that this powerhouse of Aries energy will be locked in your Solar Return chart, your next 12 months could be a very important period in your life.  It's a good year to book a Solar Return reading, to learn about your year ahead.

This week is not all about Mars and Aries though.  On the weekend, Venus and Jupiter align in a lovely sextile. It's a supportive energy for love matters and relationships - and finances!

And, we're treated to an Opportunity Period.  Details below 👇🏼

💫 Key Astro-Events:

Now let's take a look at the astro-events this week:

✨  Monday April 6:  Waxing Moon in Sagittarius Trines Saturn + Neptune and Sextiles Pluto

Best For:

• Launching a creative project
• At work, a team activity to work on a vision statement
• Spending some time outdoors walking or hiking (Sagittarius rules the hips and thighs)

✨Tuesday-Wednesday April 7/8: Mars Sextile Uranus

Best For:

• Trying something new that gets you out of the rut
• A brainstorming session (at work or in your personal life)

✨ Thursday April 9:  Mars Enters Aries + Opportunity Period!  

Opportunity Periods are universally auspicious times in the Lunar Cycles.  Don't spend them on the sofa watching TV! 

This Opportunity Period happens on the waning Moon in Capricorn and lasts from April 9, 9:52 p.m. to April 10 3:24 p.m. PDT. 

Best For:

• Career or business-oriented projects. With the waning Moon, it's better to finish the existing projects than to start new ones. 

✨ Saturday-Sunday, April 11/12:  Mars Conjunct Neptune, Venus Sextile Jupiter

Ahhh a lovely Venus-Jupiter sextile will peak early Monday morning, but we'll feel its energy throughout the weekend.  It's a supportive energy for love and finances.  If you're single, don't spend the weekend doing laundry! 

Venus-Jupiter aspects are great for approaching that cutie you've been eyeing, in person or on a dating app - and they are also great for first dates or other important relationship milestones.   

For the metaphysically inclined, charge a rose quartz + citrine for luck in love matters, or a pyrite + citrine for financial improvements.

Best For:

• Spiritual pursuits
• Charitable work and helping others
• Romantic matters

Avoid:

• Passive-aggressive behaviors
  

🕰️ Moon Void of Course

Avoid starting anything new you want to succeed during these periods:

• April 8, 2:52 a.m. to 5:04 a.m. PDT
• April 10, 3:24 p.m. 4:55 p.m. PDT
