April 2008

March was a soggy, mushy
month for getting any clear sense of direction. After the long period of
so many planets in water signs, it will be good to get to dry ground in
our thinking and decision-making. The quick planets are moving into
Aries, the sign of Spring, and pioneering new things. Certainly, the
energy is up for getting on with projects. April brings out the quick
pace of life and may contribute to a bit of “hot-headedness” through the
first half of the month. It is as if a challenge is hanging in the air.
This could literally mean conflict and aggression. People are likely to
take confrontations personally, because people tend to focus on
themselves and the internal dialog in their heads. This is a good month
to practice patience and active listening.
The first half of April has
the headlong energy of the ram, butting into anything in the path. The
prime use of such energy is with a grain of caution and a truckload of
planning. IF plans have been coming together for sometime over recent
months, then it is going to feel projected very quickly into motion. A
lot of action can happen in the short span of these first two weeks of
April. Try to avoid impulsive starts to projects now, as they could be
very short-lived.
The New Moon has some action
contacts to the USA chart and important links to President Bush’s
horoscope. This lunar period holds high tension that could bring hidden
matters out into the open. The rumblings of revolutionary attitudes are
still at a relatively low level. The coming months will be building up
even more tension right up to Election Day. The contacts in later April
have an aggressive edge.
Although we keep hoping to see
accountability, it may be unrealistic to think there will be any real
action by Congress. At this point, we can wonder why our Legislators
have allowed the Presidency to extend beyond the Constitutional
boundaries. With only 8 months and counting to the end of the term, we
should all be hoping strongly to HAVE an election. The scenarios of the
potential actions that this leader might ‘allow’ to occur are a bit
scary. A new book by Stephen Alten, The Shell Game, just
published at the end of January, 2008, plays with ideas tallied from
actual events since 9-11 and makes this “cautionary tale” a must read
for this pre-election period.
April will be a highly charged
month with increased stability later in the month. The Full Moon on
April 20 has good action for business and financial growth. It could
start the first period of financial improvement since last September.
April will be like a sunny day, compared to the confusion and delusion
of March. It is a good month to make new contacts, be pro-active to
nurture good business relationships. When the trust factor is
strengthened, there is better potential for lasting relationships.
By May 3-5, the real machinery
of business gets moving again. This ‘improvement’ is a temporary trend,
but good for infusing some confidence in the economy for a little
longer. Projects started around this time might have a slow start, there
is good potential for long-range stability. Make the most of April and
the beginning of May for personal intentions. There will not be a better
time in all of 2008 for new ventures. |
