Illuminate



Today's opposition between Saturn and Uranus is the fourth transit of this nature. The fifth and final opposition will occur on July 26. Over the next two months, change unfolds on a large-scale. There are closer aspects in play this week.

The first of those aspects is Mars squaring the Sun and soon Mercury. This transit adds a tendency to irritation for all of us. For those of us with the Sun in Taurus or Leo, this irritation feels personal.


Another transit coming into play is the Full Moon, on Wednesday, April 28, 5:18 am PDT, 8:18 am EDT. The Full Moon is the culmination of the monthly cycle, a time to celebrate how we have been blessed. This Full Moon is in Scorpio, a sign associated with a stubborn tendency to privacy. Holding back can add fuel to the fire of the anger that Mars Square the Sun can generate. Anger will eventually will find its way to the surface, and can be released unproductively to the nearest target.

The final transit I want to mention is the inferior Mercury Conjunction. Don't have to remember the name - the effect is an illumination of ideas that have been floating around 10 days ago. If you keep a journal, look back to see if you have any notes from that time. An entry from that time in my journal contains a wish list of projects I am planning for the rest of the year.

The idea of this time is to think again of what were puzzling over, because easy insights are available in the next few days. I'm going to go over my list again, to see if I can shorten it or cross anything off. The next part of this cycle, taking another step, occurs on May 11, 2010. No need to avoid acting before that time, it just becomes a more fluid process then - when Mercury goes Direct.
