Astrology of Tuesday, April 16th 2019

The day begin with the Moon in Virgo’s delirium-inducing opposition with daydreaming Neptune in Pisces, but by mid-day the quality changes to grounded and responsible, courtesy of the Moon’s trine with organized Saturn in Capricorn. A trine with Pluto follows during the afternoon, haunting it ever-so-slightly.

Evening hosts the Moon’s configuration to both Jupiter and Venus, and is briefly held between the rays of the benefics. This auspicious pocket begins a surprisingly pleasant night. Speaking of pleasant, Mercury, after two months in the Fishes’ sign, finally leaves Pisces tonight. In the Ram’s sign, Mercury is bright, sharp and direct, favoring straightforward communication and quick fixes. Mercury is especially cutting and swift in Aries this year, due to its mutual reception with Mars in Gemini. The Messenger will be in Aries until May 6th this year.
