4.16.21 A potent day of focus and opportunity
With a lack of major planetary cycles right now, the faster moving alignments have a chance to sing. Today we have a strong square aspect from the Sun in Aries to Pluto in Capricorn, forcing us to realign any tendency towards impulsivity (Aries Sun) until it aligns more completely with our soul’s purpose (Pluto). Pluto can be a powerful ally, forcing situations which we may not choose but which may end up with a result even better than we imagined. Square aspects are said to be “bad,” and it’s true that they are not easy and the planets do not support each other. But since we can’t change or resist the energy of a square we might as well utilize its potency, and use today to surrender when it appears that we are trying to force the river in the wrong direction.
Meanwhile a harmonious trine is building from Mars in Gemini to Jupiter in Aquarius. In Gemini, the drive for action is curious about everything but can be somewhat unfocused and this is enhanced by the Moon also traveling through Gemini right now. This trine to Jupiter, planet of possibilities, helps us to get the most out of each planet: Mars delivers a nice dose of dynamic energy, and Jupiter bestows the confidence and optimism we need to move forward on all of our ideas. ❤️
