Things Start to Move Smoothly When Mercury is Direct

This week in astrology.

The great news for this week is that Mercury went direct on the April 4 and Mars will go direct on the April 14 so all those crazy things we just don’t seem to be able to get done should start moving a lot more smoothly and people may start acting a little more direct. 

We do have the influence of a Mars oppose Neptune square Venus during this time period. This, like all energy has more positive and less positive energy.  We may find ourselves tired, not motivated or not feeling like getting things started, it’s a lazy energy.  But its also a romantic and creative vibe, one that makes you think of slow lazy days of just enjoying being with someone you love. 

Mid-week, we start to hit the time when the planets Uranus and Pluto will square each other, or are in orb of that square.  This is a tense difficult energy, but it's also a slow long term transit.  So, my guess is we start to see issues we need to deal with personally and world wide ramp up. We also see things irritate us that we have brushed off up until now, those loud voices of protest get louder, but not because of any one thing or event is dominate its just an energy of dissatisfaction rearing its ugly head.

On Thursday, we have Venus square the asteroid Chiron, and the planet mercury inconjunct the planet Saturn.  This is a difficult combination as you may find people very sensitive feelings get hurt easier than usual, so be careful what you say and how you say it make sure you are clear.  But the other side of this energy is it’s a great time to clear up past hurts or misunderstandings.

We end the week with the Sun in opposition to the planet Saturn. This is a serious energy and can mean that we get down to work and take care of any areas of our lives that need attention, or it can also mean we feel overwhelmed and just don’t know where to start when it comes to taking action on anything.  So use this energy wisely.  Cardinal signs will be the most affected, especially those born later in the signs. Aries, Cancer, Libra and Capricorn.
