This week's headline items:
Pluto starts to slow down (station) on Monday, it's time to start taking actions on the New Moon Intentions from Wednesday morning on, and on Wednesday afternoon, Jupiter comes to a halt and begins its 4-month Retrograde phase. The first Quarter Moon in Cancer becomes exact on Friday evening, and Saturn starts its Station phase on Sunday.

There will be four

Now, this week’s Forecast...

Monday, April 8th:

Monday, the Moon remains in steady, peaceful Taurus until 5:15pm EDT. We love all physical comforts, prefer consistency, and would rather stick with what we know works well. In other words: change is not our favorite thing and "rushing things" goes against our grain. What is our favorite thing for the rest of today? It's probably, slowing down and getting in touch with whatever delights our senses ;-)

Monday at 4:29am EDT, we enter a Moon Void of Course (VoC), that lasts for almost 13 hours, until 5:15pm EDT. Use this intuitive time to empower each other in regards to earthly issues and mutually support each other in practical ways.

As always with a Moon VoC, as best as you can, don't start anything brand-new, stick to routine things, or simply go with the flow. You may also want to plan Monday early morning until the late afternoon/early evening ahead of time.

Monday morning, we are invited to make some internal adjustments... We may want to enjoy some luxurious pleasures, while feeling at the same time a desire to have an adventure of the mind and soul.

Monday at 5:15pm EDT, the Moon moves into chatty, versatile Gemini, where it will journey until Wednesday late evening. For the next two days, we like to learn, connect and interact as much as possible. "Busy" feels good: connecting online, on the phone, or sharing face-to-face, preferably multi-tasking all the way...

The one thing we can do without is boredom: If our mind is not engaged in some way, we might as well curl up and play dead :-) As best as you can, be patient with yourself and others.

Monday late evening,  consider connecting with others, socializing, and taking a compassionate approach toward yourself and others, especially when it comes to personal goals and passions. Ask yourself: what if taking a compassionate approach towards myself and others actually made for more fulfilling connections?

Last but not least, also on Monday, Pluto starts to slow down (station) at 23º Capricorn -- preparing to come to a halt on April 24th. This station will last until May 8th. When an outer planet stations, its energy gets more pronounced; we become more aware of its impact on us -- and this can sometimes cause discomfort. We are being asked to hang out with that discomfort and observe what comes up.

Pluto is associated with our Soul Purpose. It relates to the process of empowerment -- our ability to feel empowered from within, through the experience of wholeness -- and to our deepest passions.

It is also associated with transformation, for example our ability to transform darkness into light or "death" into "rebirth". Those terms don't necessarily refer to physical death or rebirth, but rather some sort of ending and beginning.

To get to a place of truthfulness on the soul level, Pluto will remove what no longer serves us, replacing it with something new -- something fully aligned with our deepest passions and Soul Purpose.

When we resist the deep changes Pluto brings, we tend to...
