  • Moon Sign: Scorpio 
  • Moon Phase: 2nd moves into the 3rd on the 24th
  • Void-off-Course: May 16 @ 5:28 am(ET) @ 2:28 am(PT) April 25 @7:17pm (ET) @ 4:17pm (PT)to Moon into Sagittarius a few hours later
  • Opportunity Period: April 2 @7:55am(ET) @4:55am(PT) to void of course moon. “Take advantage of Mercury stationing direct during this OP to plan and chart a new path” PB

 

 

The Full Moon occurs on April 23 @7:49pm (ET) @4:49pm (PT)

When the moon is Full, it can be the best time to put the finishing touches on projects, end relationships, leave jobs, or “end” anything that is no longer in our best interests.  :).

Some of us may feel more emotional during this month’s full moon as she brings in the watery sensitivity of Scorpio….

Watch out for feelings of jealousy/envy, or being overly blunt to the point of hurting others. Secrets can come out, or be shared with others, so take care who you share your information with. Some of us may feel more intense about a subject, situation, or person, and some of us may feel we need our space… Take care with the handling of all emotional situations, Check the facts before passing judgements. 

Psychic abilities are likely stronger, and some of us may experience vivid dreams. 

The Full moon will enhance this moon sign’s influence.

 

What does it all mean?

  • Scorpio is very intense and probably the most sensitive of the zodiac signs
  • The moon relates to our emotions, indicating we could be feeling everything more deeply for the next couple of days
  • We can immerse ourselves in our projects now.
  • Watch for becoming obsessed with someone or something…. not everyone falls for someone at the same time and patience may be needed regarding sensitive relationship matters
  • Be sure that your partner, friend, lover, co-worker or school friend is really trying to upset your personal apple cart before making waves
  • We could be encouraged or directed towards taking risks or doing things we wouldn’t normally do, especially those of a group or team nature. 
  • Some of us may be highly creative right now, while others get connected to their psychic side… 
  • Secrets may be told now… we can be enticed to open up to others about our deepest feelings/fantasy’s…
  • While we will all be effected slightly by the Scorpio moon, she will have a greater effect on those who have the following in their charts.. 
    • Moon in Scorpio
    • Sun in Scorpio
    • Moon in the 8th house
    • Aspects to the Moon or Pluto
    • Personal planets in Taurus

NOTES:

April 20: Major Conjunction, Jupiter/Uranus in Taurus:

  • Jupiter = Expansion/Luck:
  • Uranus = Shock/Chaos/Change:
  • Taurus = Material and financial security/ownership.

Jupiter and Uranus are outer planets, and the influence is felt on a generational/global level more than a personal one… However, we shall all feel the affects at some point along the way and those with strong Jupiter (Sagittarius, 9th house) Uranus (Aquarius, 11th house) Taurus, 2nd house, and perhaps Scorpio chart influences are likely to feel the affects more…

This is not an influence of which we see changes immediately, it is a slow moving aspect (14 years) and like the sign of Taurus, stead fast and true. Perhaps, we can hold out hope that good changes will be on the way for us all. As an event chart” the conjunction begins in the 6th house of health, work, hygiene and service… in my personal chart, this transitional conjunction will affect my 11th house of teamwork, kindred spirits, causes and social situations.. 

  • April 22: Earth Day
  • April 22: Passover begins at Sundown
  • April 23: Full Moon in Scorpio
  • April 25: Mercury Stations Direct, still in storm, situations that have been stymied, may begin to see some traction, but patience is still needed, as there are still bumps ahead until Mercury goes Direct at the beginning of May.

HOW IT AFFECTS OUR DAILY LIVES… 

In astrology, the moon is connected to our emotions and reactions… how we are feeling on a given day may well be influenced by the sign that is visiting the moon… Each sign stays with the moon for up to 2.5 days…. :) 

The Moon Void-off-Course: 

There are times throughout the month when the moon isn’t fully immersed in any sign… this is when we say the moon is Void off Course… and when this occurs, we may feel “foggy” and “unfocused” … We may not be sure how we are truly feeling about a situation or a person…. Therefore it is not recommended that we make long-term commitments or important decision’s while the moon is Void off Course…. However there are 4 signs in the zodiac which may prove positive during the Void-off-Course moon… 

  • Cancer
  • Taurus
  • Sagittarius
  • Pisces…

Opportunity Periods  

There are other periods throughout the month that are known as Opportunity Periods, when it can prove to be a positive time for most people, however if you have challenging aspects happening within your own chart you may not be able to make use of opportunity periods.

Mercury enters Capricorn. 

  • Mercury enters the sign of Capricorn on January 25 @ 10:05 pm (ET) @ 7:05 pm (PT).
  • Mercury is currently in retrograde motion. He rules over such things as technology, transportation and communications. When he is in retrograde motion, we can experience challenges, delays, setbacks and needed repairs. 
  • Mercury in Capricorn, may see us being more cautious in our approach to life, to our business, and towards our responsibilities. 
  • We may be slower to jump to conclusions as “gossip” isn’t what drives us right now, we want the facts. 
  • It’s time to get down to business, time to step up and take responsibility for our actions now and in the future. However, having a completely pessimistic or static outlook should be avoided. 😎

NOTES: Neptune Turns Direct

Astrology Dice with zodiac symbol of Pisces and its ruling planet Neptune

  • Neptune, the planet of romance, nostalgia, magic, avoidance and fantasy, turns direct on December 1 @ 8:22 am (ET) @ 5:22 am (PT). 
  • Neptune is our “dreamy” planet, its’ where we escape to especially when life has been particularly challenging. When Neptune goes retrograde as he has been since June 25, our sense of what is real and what isn’t can become cloudy. 
  • As Neptune becomes direct, the veil that has been preventing us from seeing clearly slowly begins to lift… Relationships may be on the agenda of what needs to be improved or “discarded”..
  • Neptune is creative, and now that he has turned direct, creative ideas, projects and plans can begin to flow freely. 
  • Under the retrograde motion of Neptune, it’s possible to become more “connected” with our psychic side. With Neptune direct, we can take what we have learnt over the last 5 months and apply it to todays situations or challenges. 
  • It is hopeful that as Neptune turns direct, the cloud will disperse so one may see the reality happening around them. 
  • Because Neptune is an outer and slower moving planet, his influence is subtle for most of us… However, those with the following chart influences, may feel his influence stronger. “go with your gut instincts” :) 
  • Pisces in Neptune
  • Pisces Sun 
  • Pisces Moon
  • Any aspects to Neptune 
  • Neptune in the 12th house
  • To a lessor effect: Any Virgo chart influences.
