Astrological
Perspectives for April 2008
By Govinda
April brings the dynamic,
impetuous, aggressive, adventurous, creative, energies of the Sun
in Aries. This is the time of year for new approaches, new
beginnings and new directions. If you’ve been contemplating
(visualizing while the Sun was in Pisces) a new direction or
project, there are three opulent celestial alignments (Grand
Trines involving the Sun, Moon, Mercury, Saturn and Pluto) from
April 13th thru 29th, that light up the
possibilities for creating prosperity, abundance and expansion in
just about any project or goal that you put your positive
attention, intention and actions toward.
There is a very positive and
powerful celestial alignment (Grand Trine) of the Sun, Saturn and
Pluto from April 13 – 29th. This is one of the most
powerful times in 2008 for creating miracles in our world,
including spiritual healings, positive transformations and
manifestations of abundance and prosperity. This is an auspicious
time to manifest what you are wanting. Try these three steps: 1)
Visualize what you want to manifest; 2) Feel a good feeling
associated with the experience of having what you are visualizing;
3) Pretend (behave as though) what you are visualizing and feeling
is happening now.
Perhaps the most positive Full
Moon (at 1 degree Scorpio) of this year occurs on April 20th
3:25 am / 4:25 am Mountain time. There is a Grand Trine in the
Earth Element, including the Sun, Mercury, Saturn and Pluto. This
is a profound time, when the power of Source infuses with physical
matter and may be directed by us to create whatever your heart
desires. Rituals, prayers and wishes gain great support from the
Universe now. It is important to be clear about what you ask for
now…you very well may get it! This is a wonderful time for
activities that involve physical, emotional and spiritual insights
and healing.
The New Moon (at 17
degrees Aries) happens on April 5th at 8:55 pm Pacific
/ 9:55 pm Mountain time. This is the beginning of a new lunar
month (29 ½ days) of emotional purging and relationship challenges
and changes. It is important to process your emotions during this
lunar month. Because of the positive insights and healing
possibilities that are available to you during the period from the
13th thru the 29th, this is an auspicious
time to seek wise counsel and practice effective emotional and
relationship healing techniques.
There is a great strain on
foreign relations and financial systems during this lunar month.
There may be problems with foreign exchanges and contracts
(especially matters involving trade agreements, transportation and
oil). Political differences and power struggles between
organizations and countries are intensified now.
Remember to focus on positive
possibilities and miracle thinking during this time. Take actions
to create what you are wanting during the Grand Trines, from April
13th thru 29th.
