Change Is In The Air — You In Or To Be Pushed?
Change is in the air! The choice we are all facing is either to break our established habits and routine to allow it to enter our life; or changes are happening to us, are beyond our control and we will be pushed!
This is Your Point of Transition
My sense is the pace of change is speeding up — personally, globally, politically and economically. It has been initiated, and nowhere near completion. Rather this period is one of consolidating ready for the next leap — expect it to be higher!
Until 12th April we are still in the shadow of reflection created by Mercury´s retrograde. This has come after the last few months of being pushed to step out of our comfort zone, speaking up and trying to find our own personal direction.
April delivers some welcome energy of surrender.
In addition to being the transition month of 2019, April’s astrology brings many surprises. There is the rare second full moon in Libra and a conjunction with Saturn and Pluto, planets that will bring truth and revelations to your life.
Saturn brings commitment and Pluto empowerment and a need for recognition of your soul contracts in this lifetime.
In numerology, April 2019 is a 16/7 month. This is a vibration that brings your karmic patterns to light, so you can be free of them once and for all.
The effect will be felt as a combination of shifts, inspiration, intuitive downloads and acting on your hunches for great success. Together making it a month of turning points!
The new moon in Aries on 5th April brought a fresh new energy, especially in relationships. It was also the fifth and last one at 15 degrees, creating a triad of 5’s — an enhancement of freedom, fun, adventure, travelling, decisions and movement on all levels.
According to numerologist.com 555 indicates: “ Hold onto your hat because change is happening faster than you can keep up with! If you’ve been clinging to your routine and to what’s comfortable and familiar to you for too long, the time has come for a major shakeup. The Universe has a plan for you, and it’s not what you’re currently up to! Embrace the adventure by making time for some travel, new experiences, socializing, and risk-taking! Release your resistance to change, and you’ll discover true freedom.”
The new moon influences the head, teeth, tongue and arteries as well as offering wealth, happiness and success.
Do Not Simply Charge Ahead!
This new moon in Aries, the first sign of the zodiac, is supporting a creative start to building pathways to healthy independence. Though not to just charge ahead, which is the usual energy of Aries the ram.
Rather Saturn´s influence means on this occasion slow down and use your intuition to view the seeds you might be planting. The purpose, to confirm your soul truly wants to do so. That way you can assess and identify any fears, beliefs or inhibitions standing in your way.
Only then will you be able to willingly commit to your direction. Aligning the full power of your spiritual, mental, emotional and physical bodies to bring your choice into existence. That is how you will create your independence, including wealth and success.
To support you I am making available an audio about Secret #6 “How do I achieve clarity and focus?” from my The Seven Secrets to Living in Harmony. Follow the link to YouTube and you can download the chapter for Free.
Inaction will create stress and so trigger a re-action within you. One which aligns more with your beliefs, habits and patterns rather than the direction your soul desires. Accept obstacles and challenges will arise, and take responsibility for your life.
The purpose is to help you discover who you are and whether being that is supported in all your relationships. This will also help you define the service you provide and so your independence, happiness and success.
This new moon is giving each of us the choice of a new era. It requires though we breakthrough old beliefs, habits and patterns. As Aries is a fire sign it indicates nothing is going to hold you back from fulfilling your deepest desire.
Access Who You Really Are
Each of us is free to choose the direction of our journey, be independent and strong. The choice for each of us is to acknowledge it and then take action to bring it into creation.
For to quote the Dalai Lama: “In order to carry a positive action we must develop here a positive vision.”
To support this in mid-April Mercury moves from Pisces into Aries, allowing your mind to synchronise with the new outcomes you have created.
Also, throughout April Pluto and Saturn are only three degrees apart. Pluto leads transformation and Saturn, which governs Capricorn, is associated with career — the 10th house of astrology.
They provide a focus on manifesting your divine mission. Fulfilling it means understanding your soul´s desires. My suggestion is to simply embrace the experience as it takes your business or career in a new direction!
Business is a vehicle for crafting your self-expression YOUR way. Being a business leader allows you to use your business as a way of influencing consciousness.
In the past few weeks I have been suggesting to clients they use a SWOT analysis to assist them do so. It can be applied to any project or business. No matter whether it is to launch one, unstick an existing one or find a new job.
SWOT is an acronym for Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats. As Strengths and Weaknesses are internal they identify your unique abilities, gifts and skills as well as where you might need assistance.
My suggestion has been to write down six or more bullet points for each. Then to review each by feeling which gives you joy and which do not. Highlight them, note the experience you have to support each and then feel into how they can be used to provide a service to others.
The joy you feel within your business or career keeps them alive, exciting and growing. The same with all your relationships, especially with yourself. If joy is not present then…..
Allow Your Inner Peace to Guide You
Once you identify your joy, then step beyond what you think might or might not be possible. Rather allow your heart and soul to guide you from their broader perspective.
You will now have a sense of your “divine mission”. The final step is to complete the external Opportunities and Threats. For me the major opportunity is the re-structuring which is underway.
Usually competition is cited as the major threat, though at this moment it is not. This is because you are aware of the re-structuring which is underway. Rather the major threat is not taking action even though you feel it is the moment to do so!
Every last one of your aspirations, no matter how grand and seemingly out of reach, is attainable. My passion is to help you to take action to do so….
…without it or limiting it we block our own success and never open to the flow of fulfilment, independence and wealth we are being offered.
Remember business is a vehicle for crafting your self-expression YOUR way. Being a business leader allows you to use it as a way of you influencing the form of humanity´s evolution from the re-structuring.
Now The External Influencers Move to….
Midway between the new and the full moon on 19th April, Jupiter goes retrograde. This is the first one in its own sign, Sagittarius, for 12 years.
It marks the start of three weeks in which three of the outer planets go retrograde. Pluto and Saturn follow Jupiter on the 24th and 30th April respectively. Whilst their impact will touch us personally, being outer their focus is the collective.
Jupiter is the overseer or carrier of enthusiasm and optimism. Being retrograde it really wants to encourage us to find and express from the source of our deepest beliefs and values. To reflect and gain deeper insight as to our own wisdom.
The impact of all three is to revise and review the long held philosophies and moral code which forms the cultural structure on which society is currently built.
This retrograde starting on 10th April and the shadow of the Mercury retrograde disappearing on the 12th makes both days of change. Watch for changes in the tone of debates and decisions around such political/societal issues as Brexit.
Back to the theme of being in the moment to change the course of our lives to bring greater harmony, peace, and compassion to ourselves and healing the hurts felt within and without.
Then the Full Moon Rises
Jupiter does not begin unwinding of the retrogrades until 11th August, with Saturn and Pluto following in September and October.
Then on 19th April rises the rare second Libra full moon. Its focus is similar to March´s full moon, cultivating emotional balance. To quote from my blog on that: “walk our paths in harmony, co-operation and the collaboration of community. Ruled by Venus the goddess of love, beauty and harmony, Libra is all about ‘Us’ and what do ‘We’ desire.”
In astrology Libra rules the 7th house of intimate relationships. The focus continues on bringing close connections into harmony. New or old, the purpose is the same. Meaning those that are not in harmony will part as Libra seeks to bring harmony, trust and use of intuition into your life.
My suggestion is to feel into this rather than repeat old patterns. Base all of your choices on what brings you peace, harmony and contentment, be prepared to engage with the new opportunities as they present themselves.
There is a twist though so expect surprises with this second Libra full moon.
