Aries Season 2024
We are in the afterglow of the epic Aries Total Solar Eclipse that brought themes of healing and courage into focus, for aligning us more closely with our authentic selves. Over the next six months, you may find yourself exploring new facets of your identity or embracing opportunities that resonate deeply with your true nature. Whether it's a career shift, a new relationship, or a new talent emerging, the effects of this eclipse will unfold in various, profound ways. Learn more about the impact of the eclipse at this free online event presented by the Houston Astrological Society, April 15..
This week Mars, the planet of action and the ruler of the recent eclipse, met with Saturn, the zodiac's stern taskmaster. This biennial conjunction is a prime time to assess how we use our energy in order to assert ourselves. Now is an excellent time to consider how you can action your efforts more strategically to achieve long-term goals, and with Mercury in retrograde in Aries, it's the perfect time to reassess, revisit, and revise! Mars will enter Aries to begin his brand new journey around Sun on April 30, so get ready and set!
The Jupiter-Uranus Conjunction: A Portal to Radical Innovation
Quite in contrast to Mars and Saturn's reunion is the Jupiter Uranus conjunction taking place next week, April 20th.
Where Mars has a tendency to get a little fighty, faithful Jupiter is exuberant, enthusiastic and expansive! And whilst Saturn shakes his head, calculating your karma, Uranus opens the field of possibilities, reminding you that everything IS possible!
Jupiter is the planet of positive expansion, optimism, and abundance. He delights in your personal growth, and will fuel your passion to seize the day.
Uranus, the Sky God, and ruler of the new Aquarian age, erupts quantum awakenings and breakthroughs! He heralds the future, liberating the collective by enlightening the higher mind of the individual. Uranus sends lightning bolts of innovative, futuristic information, often arriving rather abruptly, for you to download, unpack and implement. Have you experienced a sudden aha moment? Quite possibly a Uranus intervention!
Can you imagine what might happen in your world when these two planets meet?
It may awaken you to something so out-of-the-box that it has the capacity to shift your life onto an entirely different timeline. Ready for a quantum leap? If you're curious to see how likely that is for you, consult your birth chart, or create a free one here, and check if you have planets or points between 16 and 26 degrees. The closer to 21°49', the greater the effects because that is whee Jupiter and Uranus will meet in Taurus.
Practical Magic
What makes this conjunction seemingly more tangible is its location, occurring in the sign of earthy Taurus. This implies that these epiphanies will be realistic, grounded in truth, and intended for real-world application as the impact unfolds over time.
Collectively this cosmic event indicates radical futuristic changes to the financial and agricultural industries, geoscience and resources, food production and distribution. Not surprising to note that Bitcoin's next 'halving' is scheduled for this day!!! Halving is built into bitcoin's code and historically triggers a rise in its value. This timing is not merely coincidental but underscores the potential for significant economic shifts especially with cryptocurrencies around this date.
Anticipate Cosmic Inspirations and Breakthroughs
Be mindfully vigilant through to the end of April, and especially on April 20. Be receptive and ready to receive a revelation, a solution to an 'impossible problem', an innovative idea. It may activate your inner-genius gifting you with the blueprint for something out of this world that might revolutionize your life and mine! Such moments of clarity can be profoundly transformative, encouraging ventures into uncharted territories.
With Jupiter expanding Uranus' desire for freedom, you might also feel an overwhelming desire to liberate yourself in some area of your life. It may awaken your rebellious nature or even a new founded care and concern for humanity.
One thing is for certain, Jupiter and Uranus together request that you establish a new and meaningful relationship with what makes you unique. This is a time to embrace and celebrate all that sets you apart from everyone else. Spend some time imagining how you can bring more of your quirky self into the world.
