APRIL 2023 MOONSCOPES
For the month of April, we’re trying something new. Rather than horoscopes, our astrologer is sharing moonscopes, which provide insights from the lunar perspective. New and Full Moons bring fresh cycles every two weeks. As we peer into the astrology on the day of these Moons, we can see what the coming two-week cycles have to offer and how to best work with these astrological phenomena . . .
1. April 2023 Moonscope: ARIES
Happy birthday, Aries! On April 6th ET and April 5th PT, the Libra Full Moon will light up your house of partnership (best friends, spouses/significant others, business partners, therapists, etc.). This is a deeply healing Full Moon that will turn a flashlight onto wounds either by bringing the salve you need, pushing your recovery forward at a quick pace, or by alerting you to what pain needs your attention.
To support you, Mercury will conjunct the North Node, helping your mind focus on the future and enabling you to see the changes you need to make to create the reality you dream of—even though those changes may be painful or involve difficult conversations. This is especially true for your finances and loving relationships (romantic, familial, platonic, etc.).
Aries: expect surprises
There may even be some surprises, shocks, or breakthroughs in these areas of your life, as Uranus will be conjunct Venus. With four major placements in your house of income/luxury, self-worth, and personal values during this Moon, there is a heavy emphasis on making the money you deserve, getting clear on what’s important to you/what you stand for, and feeling worthy enough to go after your true desires.
With Saturn trine Mars and sextile Mercury, now is the time to invest in the long game. The changes that are occurring, though potentially destabilizing, are beautifully arranged to strengthen your foundation and provide for you in the long-term. Venus rules this Moon, and she’s receiving gorgeous connections from both Pluto and Neptune. Follow your passion now and trust the transformation—your heart is leading you to a dream fulfilled.
Aries: New Moon Eclipse
The Aries New Moon Eclipse on the 20th ET/19th PT is intense in a different way. With the Sun and Moon conjunct at the crisis degree of Aries, alongside Jupiter and the North Node, you are moving forward now in ways that profoundly impact your identity/individuality, inner resources, and vitality.
Square to Pluto, your emotions are tumultuous now, potentially around love and money, as Saturn will square Venus. This astrology sets the stage for difficulty in relationships of all kinds—romantic, platonic, and familial—and it’s especially important to think before you speak, as Mercury will conjunct Uranus, making us quick-tongued.
Aries: the influence of Mars
The silver lining is that Mars is the ruler of this eclipse, and she’ll make a lovely connection to that Mercury and Uranus, indicating that this will all work itself out in the end. Eclipses usher in quick changes or surprises, and this one is no different. Use this energy to work with your identity and individuality in fresh, innovative ways. Now’s the time to shed whatever prevents you from being your authentic self.
2. April 2023 Moonscope: TAURUS
The Libra Full Moon on April 6th ET/April 5th PT is lighting up your house of work, health, and day-to-day life (this includes pets, chores, and sleep routines). With the Sun, Chiron and Jupiter all conjunct in Aries, this is a time when our deepest wounds and healing journeys come to the surface.
You might examine an emotional injury, or you may feel tremendous healing at this time, particularly around your work, health prospects, a pet, or the aspects of daily life.
Taurus: influence of Mercury
With Mercury conjunct the North Node, you’re looking toward the future and ready to make big changes to create the life you long to live in these areas of life.
