April 2017: In Magic Chains To Bind
April 3, 2017Astrology of Thursday, April 6th
April 5, 2017The Moon in Leo spends most of Wednesday chasing a trine with the Sun in Aries. The aspect is not complete until the night hours, but nonetheless colors much of the day. It is a moment of harmony between the Sun and the Moon, though with the Moon being in Leo it is of an overwhelmingly solar quality. Rise, shine and preside over the day. In addition to the solar power emanating throughout Wednesday, Mars’ trine with Pluto is also active, useful for determined efforts of all sorts.
Night sees both the Moon’s trine to the Sun and Mars’ trine to Pluto completed. Yet it also holds Saturn’s retrograde station, and Luna’s rough square with Mars. While the Moon-Mars square may deny sleep, Saturn’s station sounds a base-note which echoes across the sky, dropping the mind into a serious and perhaps worrisome key.
