Wednesday, APRIL 10

Jupiter stations and begins its retrograde period today (which lasts until August 11th). During this retrograde, we tend to re-think our goals and plans in the areas of life affected by Jupiter’s transit. It’s a time of questioning what we thought we already knew and developing a new perspective on events and beliefs. Recognizing areas of excess or extravagance can help us. We may need to slow down specific endeavors if they’ve been moving too quickly, or this happens organically. Some enthusiasm may wane as certain realities of time and energy set in. With Jupiter stationary today, we are inclined toward a fair amount of longing and idealism.

Mercury’s sextile to Pluto today can bring new awareness to a matter that we’ve recently researched. We might arrive at valuable truths or insights, or we gain a deeper understanding of a situation. We might discover new information that gives us an edge or finally “see” the truth of a matter that we’ve been avoiding. It’s a good time to let go of something that has kept us bound or stuck in a difficult situation. The Moon spends most of the day in the sign of Gemini, only entering Cancer tonight at 11:31 PM EDT.

The Moon is void from 1:27 PM EDT, with the Moon’s last aspect before changing signs (an opposition to Jupiter), until the Moon enters Cancer at 11:31 PM EDT.
