My Key phrase for this week is: True Colors

This week is the build up to the Scorpio full moon on Sunday, April 29th, and there is one major planetary event this week to usher in the full moon; on Wednesday, April 26th Mars conjuncts Pluto.

However, before getting into the details of these events, it’s important to set the scene. As of yesterday, we now have the two major ‘teacher’ planets in retrograde motion.

Last week, on April 17th, Saturn stationed retrograde, and yesterday, Sunday, April 22nd the planet Pluto is now apparent backward motion.

In our solar system, all planets except for the sun and moon go retrograde. And, they do not really begin to move backwards, the retrograde cycle is when they appear to do so as seen from the earth. You can think of the retrograde as a review, or even a time of reclamation.

And, now with both Saturn and Pluto retrograde, we are in a unique time period of personal spiritual growth. Universally, Saturn retrograde is a time when the soul learns to differentiate good from bad, and to bring forth, or to manifest ideas – to pull thoughts out of the ethers and make them into something concrete.

Pluto retrograde is a time to work on yourself, with the understanding that self-development is a powerful way to change the outer world.

Think of this as a time for building bridges. This unique inner work period lasts until October of this year, and is an important time because in 2020 both planets, Saturn and Pluto will be conjunct in Capricorn, ushering in what can be understood as a New Foundation for us all. So, now is a time to build internal and external structures to sustain you.

So, this time of spiritual awareness and growth is the backdrop for a major planetary event this week; on Wednesday, April 26th Mars conjuncts Pluto. Mars is going to stir up the depths of Pluto, so, on the personal level, this conjunction asks you to get serious about something you care about.

All of this leading to the Scorpio Full moon on Sunday, April 29th. Scorpio is associated with the word transformation – but I am going to ask that you also add the word motivation and also ask – what drives you, what makes you ‘tick’, and what do you intend to do about it.

These are all questions for this week, to dig down into your True Colors, and become a clear channel for your own Light, and to convey this goodness into the world.

Wishing you many blessings as you reach for the stars!
