Lunar Living Astrology

This full moon in the sign of Libra is traditionally known as the Pink Moon, In the month of April while it is opposing the Sun in Aries. A full moon event full of energy and ready to move forward with opportunities. The Moon and Sun are square to Jupiter in Cancer, challenging us to take risks, but the rewards are not always the kind we are anticipating. We may need to do additional research before assuming we have this all figured out. Even with the research, we are likely to discover that there are outcomes we can not plan for.

Mercury is still in Pisces, and inconjunct to the Moon in Libra. Our emotions may take a hit based on old memories and mental health issues that we did not take into account. Our passions may fluctuate while we can't avoid the intensity of desires while attempting to focus on our basic needs. If we have been shutting out our pleasure seeking side in an attempt to keep our lives in balance, we may discover that putting fun on the shelf, has its limits. We need to take some time to have some fun, within reason, of course. Mercury is trine to Jupiter in Cancer. We may discover that our instincts are more on target today. We can find some success in ways we don't normally expect, as long as we keep our hopes tied to realistic outcomes.

Venus in Taurus is square to Pluto in Aquarius. Finances and friendships need to be attended to for this one. Pluto has a way of shifting our focus towards letting go of some aspects that we no longer are benefiting from. Take some time to re-evaluate our material needs, and our relationships with people who are starting to either annoy, or could be physically or emotional dangerous to be around, anymore.

Saturn and Neptune are conjunct in Aries, while sextile to Pluto in Aquarius. The challenges we felt while Saturn and Neptune were in Pisces are finally starting to feel lifted. Some opportunities are opening up for us to build new talents, if we take the chance at changing our perspective.
