APRIL
2003 by Bob Mulligan
Projects
of every kind generally have more potency when started
on or near the New Moon. Astrologically, a new year
begins when the Sun crosses into Aries, the first
sign of Spring. So the first new moon of the New Year
is a consummate time to begin something new. For the
last couple of weeks you have been mulling some ideas
over, now they can come full circle and be put into
motion.
Usually
April is a month of planting and starting new projects.
We are doing that with a vengeance this year. However,
you can't plant seeds on ground that hasn't been prepared
properly. In certain areas of life we have ground
clearing that needs to take place. The good news is
that with some effort, the debris from the past can
be cleared away. Saturn (lord of form) is in Gemini
(sign of distribution) for a few more months. Now
is the time for us all to clear our thinking process.
Some problems in life occur because of the way that
we look at them. Now is the time to change perspective,
to see our world and its difficulties differently.
We
are building toward a happy conclusion from the 1st
to the 16th. It is as if life begins anew on the first
and keeps on building consistently until the Full
Moon. Tremendous last minute adjustments happen during
the weekend of the 11th, 12th, and 13th. Corrections
keep being made until Thursday the 17th, the day after
the Full Moon. This is the best time of the month.
From the 17th to 20th we are making adjustments and
counting our marbles. This is the time to check and
see what we have. From the 20th to the 26th we are
getting rid of excess and preparing for our next plan
to surface. From the 26th to the 30th we are correcting
our past errors and making adjustments.
1st
-Tuesday - The New Moon is at 11 Aries, 2:19 pm EST.

you. Immediate circumstances provide valuable clues
as to how to make the most out of your current endeavors.

Neptune. Envision everyone working together for a
common cause. It won't just happen but it can with

direction a little longer.

predetermined plans today.

common good.

today may be far removed from what has to happen next.
There is no substitute for prioritizing. Put first
things first.

suffer by doing the right thing at the wrong moment.
Timing is very important yet illusive today. Monitor
both fear and impatience.

It is difficult to see the obstacles today as something

way.

Uranus. Too much assertion can get anyone in trouble
today. It's a perfect day to re-evaluate what you
want.

until May 20th. The Sun Semi-sextiles Venus then Contra-parallels

obsessing.

can surface today as we work toward developing new
