Cosmic Insights – April 17, 2023 April 16, 2023

By Veronica G. Hartman

The celestial week of April 17, 2023, begins with the Sun rising in spontaneous Aries illuminating a strong desire to cut through the chase of illusions and make an adjustment of expectations to bring forth the realization of what is really possible, and going for it!

Mars, the planetary leader of Aries is currently moving through the still emotional waters of Cancer with messages of hope for the future coming through vital elements and resources, as truths are being revealed behind the scenes and/or dreams by the Moon in Pisces.

Meanwhile, Jupiter the daily benefactor of Pisces is standing strong in Aries with an active awareness to keep options open, while Neptune the transcendental ruler of Pisces suggests an expanded perspective that makes everything clear and dissolves what has been unconsciously holding you back with faith.

Later in the evening, the Moon speeds into impulsive Aries to join the Sun and Jupiter with a strong emotional desire to take a huge leap of faith based on emotions without knowing the outcome of letting go of what has been for what could be regarding home and family.

While it may feel a little risky the Moon in Aries and Mars in Cancer are working together to work everything out for the highest good and the new chapter occurring at the solar eclipse in Aries on April 19!  

The key is to step back from any pressure cooker energy situation with a deep breath to access the information that is relevant to financial values before taking knee-jerk actions.

Before the day ends on April 19, a solar eclipse/new moon cycle occurs at thirty degrees of Aries with an opportunity to create a feeling of safety in one’s environment with both trust and courage that one’s inner wisdom is in touch with a higher personal truth.  This is the second new moon cycle in Aries for 2023.  The first one was in March at one degree which was a new beginning of experiences based on new intentions, whereas this cycle is at thirty degrees, which is a degree of mastery regarding assertive actions relative to personal desires regarding new intentions for the next nineteen years!

The energy of the eclipse initially influences the next six months, and subsequently the next nineteen years.  So for a moment, reflect on the circumstances in the Spring of 2004, as similar events are likely on the horizon.  The key is to take things one day at a time if you currently don’t know where you are going, and to use the past as a guidepost with the experience, information, and wisdom gained from the past nineteen years to consciously create the desired reality of the next nineteen years.

Shortly after, the Moon moves into calm and steady Taurus offering an opportunity for the heightened emotional energy of the eclipse to settle down, so the information needed to decide what the best options are to take actions relative to resources and relationships.

In the early hours of April 20, the Sun moves into earthy Taurus opening a thirty-day window to contemplate self-values, resources, and relationships with current information and options for new beginnings.  

Later during the midmorning, the first order of business for the Sun in Taurus is to handle the challenges from Pluto in Aquarius by taking responsible actions to bring order and stability to unexpected chaotic circumstances with a firm no-nonsense attitude that leaves no doubt of solid ingrained values and principles that will not budge an inch!

Fortunately, the Sun in Taurus also has the assistance of Mercury and Taurus and Venus in Gemini who can communicate with Pluto more effectively, to arrive at the best choices, and actions necessary to arrive at the best solutions before Mercury goes retrograde in Taurus on April 21. 

Mercury and the Moon will be united at sixteen degrees of Taurus when Mercury goes retrograde until May 14.  The symbolism of the sixteenth degree of Taurus is indicative of trying a new approach to get one’s message across in an innovative and creative way if you are not being heard.  It is also wise during this Mercury retrograde to refrain from signing documents, plans, or projects that may prove to be financially costly during the next six months, as a lunar eclipse on May 5 occurs at fifteen degrees of Taurus/Scorpio and will influence this Mercury retrograde until October 28, 2023.
