Your Daily Horoscopes for April 13th

Your Daily Horoscopes for April 13th

Aries

Aries Horoscope

The Sun and Uranus are forming an alignment in your sign, dear Aries, and you can be itching for a change! Your rebellious side can emerge. However, you’ll be in the best position if you answer to a genuine need to make changes and progress rather than just reacting to limits or restrictions. You may be feeling especially alive and excitable today. You are taking people by surprise with your choices or actions. This is a time when you want to reinvent yourself concerning your personal manner or appearance, although significant reconfigurations are best saved until after Venus turns direct and Venus returns to your sign (late April and early May). Make your stand but avoid going to extremes. Your individuality, uniqueness, and free spirit are all in the spotlight now. While there is certainly an exciting, edgy quality to the day, you can also be extremely productive now, particularly around the home.

Taurus

Taurus Horoscope

With the Sun and Uranus coming together in your solar twelfth house today, dear Taurus, something from your past or deep inside you can emerge and surprise you. An awakening or sudden awareness is figuring strongly now, and it’s meant to get you past an obstacle. A private matter can reveal itself and may very well open the doors to a healing process or a “next step” moment. There can be uncanny coincidences or meetings now, and these can change your entire focus. Secrets or past lovers might surface for some of you, but if this happens, it may, in fact, help you to detach yourself from the past. If you’re resisting change or fearful of what’s next, then you may be dealing with inner restlessness now, and if this is the case, then it’s time to get in better touch with what’s causing discontent. While a lot is going on behind closed doors or under the hood today, it’s also an intense time for producing, organizing, and dedicated energy to studies or projects.

Gemini

Gemini

This can be a day of interesting surprises, dear Gemini, some of which may be coming from your friends or networks, and others from within you. You can detach yourself from situations just enough to make bold moves or to enjoy yourself more thoroughly without overthinking things today. Events, moments, meeting, thoughts, and coincidences may stimulate a new goal, dream, hope, or ideal. There can be teamwork or a group setting that encourages new thinking. You’re not content with restrictions and limits right now as you seek out change, excitement, and newness. While plans may not work as expected and this can be initially disorienting, the detours you take now can be quite magnificent. You may be reaching out into new social territory. However, do keep in mind that Mercury, your ruler, is retrograde, and so is Venus for a couple of days longer, and new beginnings may not yet get off the ground. Laying the groundwork is possible now. You may be seeking out unconventional friends and alliances, and while this has been a trend for some time now, it’s a stronger theme today than usual.

Cancer

Cancer

This is an excellent time for activities with friends, dear Cancer. You can be very productive as well on a pet project now. There can be some surprises today with the Sun and Uranus coming to an alignment at the top of your solar chart. This influence is designed to shake things up a little and can see you hungering for a fresh start or increased freedom. You are slightly more detached than usual when it comes to work, reputation, and finances, and this can lead to bolder moves. Some of you could be dealing with some form of job instability or inner stirrings that have you feeling rebellious against the path you’re currently taking, or perhaps against authority figures. Your image or reputation may face changes. Do keep in mind that much of what’s going on now should be treated as inspiration, as it’s not the best time to move things forward in formal ways. Resisting change or creating change without meaning both can lead to disorientation – somewhere in between is best!

Leo

Leo Glyph Symbol Horoscope

This can be a powerful day for working hard for what you believe in, dear Leo. With Mercury and Venus both retrograde, it’s great that Mars is in such good shape, and since it’s at the top of your solar chart, pouring dedicated energy into your career or professional image can be useful. There is also electric energy in the air, and it’s in harmony with your sign. You’re in a great position to find inspiration, particularly if you branch out and explore places or topics you wouldn’t normally explore. Opportunities to learn, teach, and travel can be sudden and exciting, and interactions and ventures tend to be mind-opening right now. Your enthusiasm is also attracting support or positive attention from others. Your thinking, belief systems, education, travel plans, legal matters, or projects can involve surprises. Your unique ideas, approach, or guidance can be in the spotlight now.

Virgo

Virgo Symbol Horoscope

The need for change is real right now, dear Virgo, but if you’re not in touch with this need, you may act out, rebel, and react. As such, it’s important to recognize that you need to make improvements, overturn expectations, and perhaps break some of your usual routines so that you can grow and thrive. The desire to make significant lifestyle changes can be healthy as you’re no longer satisfied with the status quo. Disrupted plans can stimulate a change in dependencies, spending, or deeply ingrained habits. There can be unique attractions or a desire to push others’ boundaries. You may need to take a break from overthinking things or worrying, and this may be just the right time for doing so. Use this time for a boost of courage to make a change that’s meaningful to you, but do keep in mind that both Venus and Mercury are retrograde and major new beginnings are not appropriate now.

Libra

Libra

Fresh energy is brought to your relationships with others today, dear Libra, and particularly to one-on-one pairings, negotiations, and partnerships. People may be bringing surprises into your life, or you may awaken to relationship needs. No matter what the case, you tend to begin fresh on some level related to your connections. You may have a hard time accepting rules and limitations now, or you could find that a partner or special friend is rebelling against you. Unpredictability may be disorienting, but it can also lead to a new understanding of what you need and what you’re capable of on your own. Alternatively, through someone else’s input, you may arrive at an exciting new perspective. This can be a good time for making a commitment to put outdated methods of relating behind you. While your social life can be somewhat up in the air, today is quite excellent for hard work. You may find it easier than usual to dedicate a part of your day to a practical and useful project.

Scorpio

Scorpio Horoscope

The long-term transit of routine-bucking Uranus through your sector of routines has been an unusual one, dear Scorpio! Today’s Sun-Uranus alignment pulls up this theme and awakens you to the need to make changes or progress. Uranus is not here to take routine out of your life but to have you question certain elements of your daily life or work and habits that are no longer serving you well. Changes in plans today can lead you on the path to discovery of new methods to improve wellness and other systems in your life. If you’ve been stifled or confined in your work or restricted from getting out and about, then you’ll be itching to change things up now. Beyond breakthroughs, this day is also good for pouring energy into a special project or even a person. Shared activities are once again well-favored.

Sagittarius

Sagittarius Horoscope

You’re in excellent shape for getting things done today, dear Sagittarius, although it may not appear this way as you tend to approach things rather unusually or even haphazardly. There is method to this madness, however! In fact, you are motivated and inspired. The Sun and Uranus align in harmony with your sign and this points to a tendency to work with this somewhat erratic and disruptive energy rather than against it. This helps you to see where change is necessary instead of resisting it and letting it mess with your life. Romantic and creative matters can be surprising, changeful, and stimulating. You may want to stand out for your unique creations or personality now. This is not the time to do the same old things or to approach others in the usual way – opportunities open up as you make changes and breathe fresh life into your projects and relationships. Even so, avoid overly abrupt moves as both Mercury and Venus are retrograde, and not all is likely to go over swimmingly now.

Capricorn

Capricorn Horoscope

With the Sun and Uranus meeting up at the bottom of your solar chart, dear Capricorn, you’re likely to feel some very distinct inner rumblings. Discontent with the usual routine or with your living arrangements can emerge quite strongly now. You can have an adamant urge to break free of limitations that have kept you from exploring and discovering new ways to live or to express yourself. Uranus always brings with it a fair amount of detachment, and this can help you move out of your comfort zone so that you can make changes that are necessary for your growth. Because Uranus is in conflict with your sign, this can be a harder lesson for you than others, and your first instinct may be to resist change. However, if you choose to make small moves instead of dramatic ones now, and resolve to make these changes one step at a time, you’ll effectively build your confidence about changing things up in general. Falling back on the same old conditioned approaches in relationships will only frustrate you today, so aim to make progress with a new style or plan. This way, you may be breaking out of the mold that others have created for you, especially if this pattern has felt particularly limiting recently.

Aquarius

Aquarius

This can be an excellent day for reworking or reorganizing around the home or office, dear Aquarius. You may throw yourself into a task that’s truly worthwhile now. On another level today, there can be quite a bit of mental excitement or news that excites you, perhaps disturbing your schedule or routine at the same time. You may find that you can’t always rely on the usual channels for expressing yourself these days, but that answering to your inner rhythms and responding to intuitive cues can lead you in the right direction. Others may be treating you with more acceptance or fairness now. Your ideas, advice, or guidance might stand out as particularly unique. Conversations, news, and information coming to you now can be catalysts for a new interest or method, or possibly a whole new path. While this is not the time for major launches, you can feel quite inspired to make improvements, and you can certainly set the stage for future progress.

Pisces

Pisces

You can experience a strong desire to unburden yourself of excess possessions or clutter, dear Pisces, but do be careful that you don’t throw out something of value, as this is a distinct possibility with Venus still retrograde and nearing its station. The Sun and Uranus meet up in your resources sector, and this can stimulate a whole new approach to money and things. Circumstances are such that you’re more acutely aware of what you’ve been holding onto both emotionally and physically, and how some of this may be holding you back. Whims are sometimes great, but they don’t always work in your favor. It may be a good idea to work with your inspiration and play with it in your mind a while or jot things down before making final decisions. And, while you are at it, you might want to take notes about new ideas that come to you about business, work, and money, as these can be very innovative and useful to return to at a later date when new launches have a better chance to take off. There is excellent energy for throwing yourself into an editing project or studies today, however.

Metatron Activates Your 3rd Eye

Metatron Activates Your 3rd Eye

The Goddess began this channel by speaking about the changes taking place. Once in the All That Is, Metatron came forth and activated everyone’s 3rd eye! He spoke of the long time changes that have taken place.  He spoke of the support that is now here for us.  He spoke about how the activation of the 3rd eye for all present was also stimulating the pineal gland which is a way of balancing these energies in our physical self.  He confirmed many of the changes taking place. He spoke of the fact that a number of the angels would be manifesting in our reality; mostly at the high 5th to 6th dimensions.  He also spoke of how we can now teleport as we align with these energies.

The Goddess of Creation is God/ Goddess as source.  This is a very high vibration that could not come into the earth until year 2000.  Therefore, sometimes she is not as aware of the specifics in history or what it is to be human.  Metatron, on the other hand, is very aware of physicality, how we struggle and the merging of ego with soul.

This is a very powerful channel filled with exciting changes!

Shelly

Nama sika Venia benya, I AM the One, I AM the Whole

I greet you beloved family.  I reach out from my heart to yours.  I reach out to embrace all who are here and to invite you to embrace your own self taking this moment to just be in the space of who you are.

So often people get busy in their everyday lives.  So often you’re feeling the impact of the energies as they come into the Earth and it may knock you off kilter.  So often you may be picking up on energies from experiences that are happening in your community, or around the world, that really has nothing to do with you, but yet you feel that energy and you take it on.  So often your daily life becomes enmeshed with tasks, with responsibilities so much so that you forget to take time for yourself.

When you join me for these teleconferences this is an opportunity for you to bask in the energies of God and Goddess, of your own divine light energy, so that it may become a stronger bond between you the human and you as your divine essence.

There have been tremendous transformations in the energy upon the Earth most especially over the last two to three years. There have been so many years of release, release, release that this year is now a year of integration in your life.  A big part of that moving forward is for you to get to know who you are. Not as the mother, father, brother, sister, worker, giver, receiver; whatever that may be that are the tasks in your everyday life. But you the person that represents your immense divine essence of your soul.

When I speak about taking time for yourself this is the foundation.  You the human is having the life experience that you are having.  Your soul is there anchoring you, supporting you, helping you in all that you do.  Take this opportunity and perhaps put forth the intention, that whether you are conscious or unconscious of it, there will be some time during your day in which you open to your divinity and you receive the flow and the reboot that takes place within your physical body.

Many of you have known that during your sleep state you go and have many, many adventures. Sometimes you spend that time with your higher self-talking about the day that just passed and perhaps working on something you are seeking to manifest. Sometimes you will go to places of healing.  There are many ships that are out in the universe.  The majority of which have places for meetings, or gatherings, or healings, because you were going into that vibration that is you as source.

Sometimes in your dream state, or your sleep state, you gather your angels and your guides around you.  They are here with you all the time, but that is your opportunity to be with them in a conscious way.

Yes I hear you.  You are saying if I’m sleeping I’m not conscious of it.  I would say to consider your sleep state as that step down from your higher self to your everyday reality.  (This is true) because, sometimes you remember your dreams; because what happens in your dreams can manifest to assist you in your everyday life.  So too many of your dreams are just chaotic without a direct relation to your life.

So my intention as I speak of this is to remind you that this is a place to help you, but also there’s no need to get concerned about it or let your everyday mental body get focused upon it, because it is there as a part of you as the human, and you as your divine.

Take in another breath where you really breathe down through your energy bodies.  As you do so send that breath of light all the way down into you your own self, but then down to the Earth.  As you connect with the Earth allow that intention, that breath, that energy to just spread out going in many different directions.  There you go and as this energy anchors you it allows your consciousness to shift so that it moves into a much higher light vibration.  It therefore goes out through the top of your head and you immediately stream into the space of your higher self.

As you look around recognize that your higher self is that is of creation to you.  So it may look like a particular location.  It may be a sense of just emptiness.  It is completely your creation.  Just know that it is that step or two upwards so that you can have a more expanded perspective of your life.

Therefore as you allow your focus to be there in a very conscious manner look around.  Perhaps you have a sense of things that are here representing your everyday life.  You can connect with that or not, but then have a sense of letting your consciousness moving out even further.

There is a stream of light that moves from you the human all the way out to your divinity, and there’s this stream of consciousness that takes you into your divinity.  Have a sense, not only of feeling your whole consciousness expand, but have a sense of receiving the unconditional love, that fullness, that acceptance for who you are because your divinity fully love you and supports you.  Feel the flow.

l the Goddess walk in and amongst each one of you.  I reach out to embrace you as the consciousness of your divinity, you as the consciousness of your human self so that as we blend our energies together I amplify and reflect back to you all of who you are as we move into the All That Is.  Whenever we arrive within this space it feels as if there’s a sense of celebration, there’s a sense of anticipation, of joy, of acceptance, of that awareness that you chose to come here seeking this clearer vibration of yourself;  seeking to create change in your life, seeking to perhaps understand who you are in a deeper sense.

There are a number of Angels and Light beings that are joining us this evening.  I invite you to have a sense of everyone joining together in what looks like an amphitheater.  It’s as if there are stair steps that go up creating a space for everyone to find a place a place to be.

As you get settled in Metatron is here and would like to speak with you.  I would like to invite you to see perhaps a platform or a stage created for him, but you also see around him Melchizedek, St Germain, Kuthumi, Mother Mary, Quan Yin.  There is a whole stream of people, of energies, that I coming to share this time with you as they work with your own vibration.  I will step aside as we invite Metatron to come and speak with us at this time.

Metatron Speaks:

I greet you from my heart to yours.  I reach out to all who are here.  I speak to you at this time, because of the dramatic transformations taking place upon the Earth.  I as Metatron have a direct link into every single human who is upon the Earth.  I, therefore, have been asking to speak with this group for a while.  Goddess is always busy with what she is doing with you so I needed to put my name on her energetic calendar!  The lucky thing is that in this time space reality I do not have a linear calendar therefore whatever time we agree upon is perfect for me to speak with you! 

How many of you feel as if you are more than just this lifetime?  How many of you have perspectives or perceptions of other lifetime, and you sometimes question are you disoriented or if you are getting confused about events that are happening in your life?  How many of you are in that place where you were saying to me year after year after year this is not what I signed up for.  This is way too hard.  I’m tired of it.  I’m ready to go home.  I see the hands.  

I wish to speak to you off a couple of different things.  First of all with this transformation of the energy upon the Earth that has taken place which is allowed that 5th-dimensional vibration to be so prevalent upon your Earth.   You each have the ability to speak with the aspects of your own soul with a much greater ease.  When you come on these journeys with the Goddess you are anchoring your physical reality.  You are allowing your consciousness to stream to a higher, light vibration and your thoughts and your mental party still have that perception of what’s going on.  Some of you may get here and feel it.  Some of it you may see things distinctly.  Others of you may just feel it is equal to your everyday reality.

I wish to take this time so that each one of you if you will just close your eyes for a moment and have that sense of letting your focus and your awareness beyond your 3rd eye. I am working with everyone’s 3rd eye so as to clear out any old energy or debris; so as to strengthen the alignment with this and your pineal gland, so as to activate and strengthen that alignment within you.  If you feel a lot of pressure in your head just stretch out your energy, clear it out so that you can feel better. 

When I have said that the transformation upon the Earth is unique to this time space reality this is not spoken out of turn.  I have been here with my friends (speaking of Melchizedek, The Ancient Ones, etc.) from the very beginning of time when people came to the Earth. Some were here… okay, let me back up… when the star beings came to the Earth.  There were those indigenous people who were not from the stars that were already upon the Earth and some of you are them.  Our intention as we noticed it and thought what a beautiful potential for growth and expansion and this is why you are here.  There was, of course, a group who spoke with Gaia.  We had her full permission. 

One of the things that was chosen as an intention was to have complete free will.  Many of the places out here live as a collective consciousness.  I recognize the collective consciousness of the Earth, but every single soul is different and unique.  Every single soul has the potential to create their own life.  Every single soul is living lifetime, upon lifetime, upon lifetime with the intention of their own personal growth.  When you are out there in the universe you do have that uniqueness of the different soul, but if one person feels pain everybody feels pain.  If one person has an accomplishment everybody has an accomplishment.  They know nothing different. 

As your Earth continues to vibrate so solidly within the fifth dimension you are leaning towards that type of collective consciousness.  Already there are groups of you who can feel this and participate in this type of awareness.  Within the third dimensional reality of your Earth, it is very hard to conceive what that may be.  Therefore this is one of the transformations that is taking place because the Earth is vibrating at this high level. 

In the higher Vibrations, your physical body is going to transform dramatically.  What you choose to eat may be different.  You may not eat as much as you needed to before.  Your physical reality for many people is going to be more transparent, because of the integration of even higher vibrations. 

As you feel this physical transformation taking place.  You may feel it as aches and pains in your bones.  You may feel your body as being sometimes weaker and sometimes stronger.  You may feel that alignment with your thoughts and beliefs transforming.  The integration between soul and ego is going to continue in a unique way. You are already feeling these changes taking place and people are in all various stages of the spectrum of transformation.  Be aware that as with everything there is no right or wrong there is just your experience which is your own. 

There is a great deal of clearing out that has taken place in the collective consciousness of the Earth.  There has been a release of millions of stuck energies that represented the souls that did not transition fully when the physical body died.  There has been a great deal of transformation around the lower vibrations such as fear, anger and everything that goes along with that.  The only reason it continues to be evident is that there are those that are still stuck and therefore they keep speaking about it, or writing about it, or blogging about it, or posting about it, or hashtagging about it.  They are simply on their own journeys in the space which they are. 

For you my beloved friends you can let it go.  You can release that and if you find yourself reading about it, and reading about it, and reading about it, you’re getting hooked in again.  So the question comes to you how long are you going to be hocked into that energy?  How quickly can you release it and let it go?  For some, it may be seconds.  For others, it may be minutes, hours or days. 

Again remember that you, no matter who you are, have this vibration that is a direct link with your divinity.  We activated your third eye.  You have been activating your crystalline light body.  Let these be parts of your everyday life, so that they may assist you in living this life in an expanded state of awareness and balance. 

I recognize that the Goddess of Creation is here for a very specific reason.  She is all encompassing.  She is masculine and feminine.  She is a vibration of unconditional love and this is what the earth needed and what each of you needed since you are drawn to this group channelings.  I as Metatron am well aware of how it is to be human.  You may see some of us walking upon the Earth with you.  You may see the Starships come and closer to help you.  You may see aspects of your own self from your own divinity here and present with you as it assists you. 

You are not alone.  You are extremely evolved.  You have the ability to manifest anything you seek in your life.  Look around you this has been created by all of you and supported by all of us and it is integrated into all this universe in which you live.  I am so very pleased to be a part of you. 

When I speak of us manifesting upon the Earth it will be in those places that have the higher vibration.  So while we may want to go down into the nitty gritty of what is happening that low, low vibration is very painful for us.  We, therefore, seek to vibrate……. we don’t really even come to 5th Dimension we come to the 6th maybe.  However, the more that you are in the 5th-dimensional reality the more access you have to the 6th dimension and more, and there are places all around the world that vibrate at these very high light vibrations, and those other places where it is easiest for us to come in and share time with you.

For some, it may be that you sense us energetically.  For some, you may see it physically.  Be aware that the more you transform the more that you would have the potential to teleport from one location to the other.  To come physically on to the ships if you so choose.  All is possible. 

As the energy continues to transform upon the Earth be aware that you are the ones that are anchoring and balancing this vibration.  Be aware that Gaia continues to work with us.  Most particularly right now with the crystalline vibration coming in it is activating those places within Gaia so as to create an anchor and a balance.  

I wanted to speak to you to say that I am here.  I wanted to speak with you so as to create this vibrational alignment that will assist you through the link with me.  I am eager to see where this next level of communication takes us. 

Thank you for allowing me to be a part of your gathering and know that I have great love for you.

The Goddess of Creation

Greetings once more it is the Goddess. I love when these other energies choose to be a part of our time together.  They bring such a different dynamic into our space of healing and transformation.  We are not alone just as you are not alone.  The greater the alignment that is created with all of these Masters and Light beings the greater your potential to transform with ease upon the Earth.

As I look at each one of you I see everyone with bright stars shining in your forehead.  I see each one of you with even more of that crystalline vibration surrounding you in your aura.  For those of you that wish to have it I send out the vibration of balance and the vibration of acceptance so you go to that deeper level of acceptance within you.

This was an opportunity to share with you and remind you that you have all of this potential.  You can access all of it through your I AM presence.  You can access it through coming into here to the All That Is.  If you can when I speak of this moment of acceptance accept that you are transforming.  Accept that your 3rd eye has been cleared out and activated as has your Pineal Gland.  Accept that you now have the potential to see things in a new way.  Accept that the potential to teleport is higher and higher in your physical reality.

All of what he said is for all of humanity upon the Earth.  It is not just for one or two.  It is for everyone.  For those who may be unconscious of this it is still working with them creating potential, creating a foundation, helping to transform all of reality.

There was a great deal of energy work done on each one of you as Lord Metatron spoke. So I ask you take a moment and let that all wash through, letting it integrate, and then allowing potential to flow within and around you.

I invite you to come back together in a circle.  As we do so you have a sense of that Hologram coming up from within the center of you.  Metatron himself is infusing a great deal of energy into the Hologram as are all the other Angels and Lightbeings.  For you I invite you to take a moment and just get in touch with whatever it was that was most prominent as Metatron spoke when you accepted potential and opportunities.

Then you send that into the Hologram.  You send all into the Hologram so that it can integrate on every level.  The Hologram itself begins to sparkle and take on its own vibration.  Each one of you can feel that which is changing and clearing out and activating in the collective consciousness; kind of focused into this space at this time.

Then you release it as if everyone takes a step back and that Hologram flows down from here in the All That Is.  It moves into the Earth and there is that piece of it goes out into the Universe and it aligns creating balance between the Universe and the Earth.   We follow it as it goes down into the Earth.  It anchors within Gaia connecting with the crystals, the magnetic center of the Earth and then it moves up through all levels that have created Gaia.  As it moves through all these levels it comes up through the Earth itself and it is coming up within you.

You already sent your consciousness down into the Earth and it anchors you so that it connects to everything bringing it back in you.  As you breathe deeply you bring all that energy back up into your heart center and then send it consciously into your 3rd eye and let that go out from you. Allow all that vibration and all that energy wash through you coming up through your energy bodies, your physical, your mental, your emotional bodies creating balance and expansion within you.

So too this expansion comes up through the grass, the trees, the water creating a place of activation for anyone who is ready to step into this potential.  There is a clearing out of the collective consciousness and a deeper integration within the collective consciousness of the Earth.

I invite you to once more as if you are opening up your heart center, go back touching into that part of you within the All That Is and have a sense of bringing it back to you.  It flows through the I AM presence.  It flows down through your Higher Self and as you breathe down into your heart center you’re bringing all of your expansion back within you.  You’re bringing all of that energy from the Earth up within you so that you can be in this place of awareness, this place of expansion, this place of acceptance and allowing.  You can feel it.  You can integrate it and you can know it.

All right beloved family as you move through the next couple of weeks upon the Earth, recognize that you will feel the energies of Metatron in and around you on very consistent bases.  Be open to this integration of your third eye as it expands and balances.  Become aware of the many gifts that you have and are working with upon the Earth.  There is so much integration taking place.  There is so much opportunity that is here for you right now.

Beloved family I feel such joy and love in my heart for you.

Ansaluia.

April – May 2017: Mercury Retrograde in Taurus & Aries and Conjunct Uranus

April – May 2017: Mercury Retrograde in Taurus & Aries and Conjunct Uranus

Intrepid Peace

Mercury is retrograde between 9th April and 3rd May 2017 (GMT). Beginning in grounded and consistent Taurus and retreating into impulsive and instinctual Aries on 20th April, it highlights where we set anchor and strive to remain when in fact we should move on through. Conditions maintained through fear, laziness or uncertainty will become increasingly problematic in the weeks and months to come. This Mercury speaks of the need to trust our instincts over and above the reason of ‘common sense’ logic. There exists great mystery within this process. We may find ourselves thinking in ways we never have before, considering options that have seemed too outlandish to contemplate. We may encounter new sides to our self which take some getting to know and whilst we can sense their potential, to others they may feel like a threat to the status quo.

The developmental arc of this retrograde curves towards the final week of April and the first two weeks of May, which takes us beyond the end of Mercury’s retrograde journey. During this time, Mercury is conjunct Uranus and (more briefly) Eris in Aries, heralding unexpected revelations and fresh insight that could turn our world upside down. The power of the spoken and written word is amplified by this alliance, such that being considerate in our expression whilst still striving to speak the truth is essential. The notion that sticks and stones can break our bones but words do no harm whatsoever couldn’t be more wrong at this time! Careless speech now could trigger a chain of events that change the world as we know it, for good or ill, so wise and compassionate speech aimed at building bridges, not barriers, is vital. The more people who can remain open to hearing difficult truths, facing unpalatable people and still seeking reconciliation where only division has existed before, the better, for this is a time full of raw power and it is we – every one of us – who is charged with using it wisely.

If conflict seems impossible to avoid, we must act to de-escalate and normalise rather than impose our will and insist on having things our way. This doesn’t mean we must let ourselves be walked over, but seeking even the most obvious common ground – we all breathe the same air, my breath in your lungs, your breath in mine – can help take the heat out of difference and create space for a meeting of hearts and minds. We must allow fierce compassion to shape our choices and guide our way, standing strong in the face of abuse of power and exploitation of the vulnerable, whilst softened around the edges of divisive rhetoric which sustains a polarised and hateful narrative. We are called to be spiritual warriors now, emboldened not by weapons of war but by the seeds of intrepid peace sown in the fertile soil of our daily lives.

This Mercury retrograde provides an opportunity to adjust our alignment and review our allegiances to both people and circumstance. If we regret choices made or unmade in recent months, rest assured they’re not yet set in stone and the opportunity to choose again has arrived. With relationships still in the spotlight we may have to react in new ways to old dynamics, or adopt tried and trusted behaviours in new situations. Finding the most productive combination of past and present will help birth a dynamic and more fulfilling future for all concerned, even if it doesn’t quite feel that way right now!

Spell to Develop Psychic Powers

 

During this Pisces Moon, it is a good time for developing psychic skills. To do this, create an altar that includes some of the Piscean ritual objects: Blue and blue-green candles, A bowl of water, and figurines or pictures of otters, salmons, seals, whales, or great blue herons. Place some coral, opal, or labradorite stones on the altar with dried horsetail or sage. Apply some oil of lotus or frankincense, light the candles, and mediate on the water. Gaze deeply into the bowl and say:

 

Water shining
Water Deep
bring me answers that I seek

 

Then ask questions that you do not have the answer for. Watch for images to appear in the water.

Custom Made Magick for Thursday

WiccanCustom Made Magick for Thursday

 

Well, let’s see … abundance, prosperity, and good health has been our focus for this day. Now how about a little more information and ideas for working practical magick with one of our fascinating featured deities of the day?

Juno was the Queen of Heaven. As the matriarch of the gods, she guarded over women in every aspect of their lives. Juno was thought to have renewed her virginity every year. Similar to other goddess stories, Juno was a triple goddess-a virgin who belonged to no one; a mother and woman in the prime of her life, sexual and mature; and also a crone, powerful, wise, and sometimes vengeful (as she made her husband’s many mistresses’ lives either fairly unhappy or short).

There are references to an early all-female triad of goddesses known as the Capitoline Triad. This triad consisted of Juventas, Juno, and Minerva. To the Greeks, they would have been known as Hebe, Hera, and Hecate. Ultimately the triad became Juno, Minerva, and the male Jupiter. Jupiter, another of Thursday’s gods, was Juno’s consort.

As mentioned earlier, Juno, in her aspect as Juno Moneta, was the patron and protector of the Roman mint. The coins produced at her temples were blessed by Juno and imbued with her powers of abundance and prosperity. In another of her aspects as Juno Augusta, Juno was the goddess of an abundant harvest.

In addition, another of Juno’s magickal correspondences is the semiprecious stone malachite. Malachite is a beautiful green-banded stone that was also called the “peacock stone” in Italy. The peacock was a sacred animal of Juno’s, and the magickal energies of malachite encourage health and prosperity.

A Little Witchery for Your Thursdays

WiccanA Little Witchery for Your Thursdays

Today is the day for prosperity work of all kinds. It can also be used for healing work, whether that is a physical healing of an illness or an emotional healing. Also remember that you have to follow up your healing work and prosperity magick and physical action.

I can’t tell you the number of times I have met new witches who complain to me that their prosperity spell or “I need a better job” spell did not work as they expected. They’ll ramble on and on about how much time and money they spent working their magick….but, alas, they had no glorious manifestation of wealth or fabulous job that suddenly dropped out of the sky and landed in their laps.

Then, when I gently ask them, “Did you enchant your resume or application when you filled it out? Did you do a little confidence-boosting spellwork when you went to apply for the job or went to the interview?” typically they give me a blank, confused stare.

Nine times out of ten, their response is, “You mean I have to go out and actually look for the job too?” Um, yes, my dear, you certainly do. Magick follows the path of least resistance, which means it’s going to manifest along the simplest, quickest route. Get out there and hit the pavement. See what you can find. Times are tough and competition for good jobs is fierce, so you need whatever edge you can get. For folks like us, we’re going to get the edge by using our magick and our spellcraft.

Thursdays have such a rich source of magick for us to draw upon that, honestly, the sky is the limit. This is the day associated with the gods of the sky and heavens, after all. Get to know these deities and add their wisdom and magick into your days

On Thursday, April 13th, We Celebrate…..

GothicOn Thursday, April 13th, We Celebrate…..

Songkran (Thailand)
TOU MOU

Themes: Cleansing, luck, charity, karma, history

Symbols: Pen (or Quill), books, light

About Tou Mou: The Chinese/Thai goddess of record keeping takes specal notice of our actions (or inactions) today, keeping careful notes for the karmic bank account. In works of art, Tou Mou is depicted sitting behinds books and glowing with the beautiful light of the aurora. It is this brightness that shines on our lives today, revealing both the good and the bad. Suitable offerings for this goddess include rice, fruit, and all acts of goodness.

To Do Today: In Thailand, this water festival begins with tossing water down the street to chase away evil influences. I suggest using your driveway instead, or a glass of water on the kitchen floor that is judiciously mopped up later.

People in Thailand traditionally wash their parents’ hands with scented water today to bring them honor and long life. So remember your elders today, and do something nice for them—it’s good karma, and it definitely catches Tou Mou’s attention. Another activity extends good deeds to the natural world—that of freeing sonbirds, who then bear their liberator’s prayers directly to Tou Mou’s ear. You might want to simply scatter some birdseed instead for similar results.

Finally, it might be a good day to balance your checkbook to make sure your financial karma stays in good standing. Burn a green candle nearby for prosperity.

Today is Thursday, April 13

fantasyToday is Thursday, April 13

 

Thursday is the day of the planet Jupiter, dedicated to Thunor(Thor), God of thunder and agricultural work. His parallels in various European traditions are Zeus, Taranis, Perun, Perkunas and St. Olaf. The faith of the Northern Tradition holds Thursday sacred, just as Islam reveres Friday, Judaism the Sabbath(calculated from sunset on Friday to sunset on Saturday), and Christianity, Sunday. This is why almost all adages about Thursday are positive, such as “Thursday’s child has far to go,” “Sneeze on Thursday, something better,” or “Cut nails on Thursday for wealth.” Thursday rules controlled optimism, energetic growth, physical well-being and material success.

The Sky This Week for April 13 to 16

love and lightThe Sky This Week for April 13 to 16

Jupiter at peak visibility, Sirius at magnitude -1.5, and other cool things to look for in the sky this week.
By Nicole Kiefert

Thursday, April 13

For those who like to observe during the quiet predawn hours, Saturn offers a visual treat. The ringed planet rises shortly before 1 a.m. local daylight time and climbs about 30° high in the south by the time morning twilight begins. It shines at magnitude 0.3 against the backdrop of northwestern Sagittarius, where it appears nearly stationary relative to the background stars. Take a look at Saturn through binoculars and you’ll also see the open star clusters M21 and M23 as well as the spectacular Lagoon (M8) and Trifid (M20 ) nebulae less than 4° to its east. When viewed through a telescope, the planet shows a 17″-diameter disk surrounded by a stunning ring system that spans 39″ and tilts 26° to our line of sight.

Friday, April 14

Orion the Hunter stands out in the western sky as darkness falls this week. The conspicuous constellation appears slightly askew compared with its appearance in winter’s evening sky. Now, the three-star belt is aligned parallel to the horizon while blue-white Rigel hangs directly below the belt and ruddy Betelgeuse stands directly above.

Uranus is in conjunction with the Sun at 2 a.m. EDT. From our earthly perspective, this means the distant planet lies behind the Sun and so is out of sight. Uranus will return to view in the morning sky in late May.

Saturday, April 15

The Moon reaches apogee, the farthest point in its orbit around Earth, at 6:05 a.m. EDT. It then lies 251,950 miles (405,475 kilometers) from Earth’s center.

Sunday, April 16

The annual Lyrid meteor shower begins today. Although the shower won’t peak until the morning of April 22, you may see a few meteors in the predawn hours before then. To tell a Lyrid from a sporadic meteor, trace the streak of light back to its origin. Lyrids appear to come from the constellation Lyra the Harp, while sporadics appear at random and can come from any direction.

The waning gibbous Moon appears just above Saturn before dawn. The two approach each other as the morning progresses, and the Moon will pass 3° north of the planet at 2 p.m. EDT.
