Full Moon in Libra April 2012
Full Moon Libra April 6th
The Easter weekend starts off with a bang with a Full Moon in Libra 2012 on Friday April 6th. A tense semisquare to Neptune and Venus and wide conjunction with Saturn in Libra will make it somewhat dreamy and confusing and wanting to escape if not just burned out and exhausted and tired with a melancholy mood. The Libra Moon is diplomatic and peace loving creating emotional harmony. Charming and gracious, Moon Libra is your perfect host and your go to public relations support that creates alliances and builds instead of burns bridges in relationships. Libra is about balance and with Saturn Libra-keeping things in perspective.
The hard energy with Mars retro at its station ready to go forward is gripping and tense where with Mercury just moved direct in Pisces, energies may be low, slow and sluggish to get started again as Mercury ramps up to move at its natural speed again with Mars waiting in line. It’s like driving with the brakes on-your feet want to go but they are hard pressed by a worn out body.
Whenever Mercury stations direct from being retrograde, getting enthused to get moving is curtailed for a few days. For me it’s been a bit of the flu bug slowing me down. Emotions still run high fever pitch though at the Full Moon feeling the glow of the heat. Some classic blues playing-seems to fit the mood. Any music will do matching your mood-alluring and entrancing, seductive, mysterious caught up in some romantic entanglement as Venus builds to square Neptune as everyone feels the rush of spring cursing through their veins.. “You Give me Fever…Peggy Lee”
Many may want to escape and hide away with the Easter eggs this weekend even though the Sun is in Aries, with its action oriented and expressive, busy wish to forge ahead into a new adventure. It is a fight club with the Sun in Aries and Mars in a tense grand square with Venus Neptune nodal axis-throwing punches as did Liberal MP Justin Trudeau and Conservative Senator Patrick Brazeau duking it out for charity. With Venus in Gemini, a playful time to dance in your Easter- bunny slippers watching some sappy romantic flick with a comedic spin or some classic cartoons-someone got me onto Merrie Melodies reruns…no one seemed to recapture that cartoon era. A good button to push to tickle the funny bone.
Venus is building to a grand square to the nodal axis, Mars Virgo oppose Neptune Pisces, a real zing ding of mutable energy scattered, jumpy, fast moving, fast talking, rattling, punchy, persistent prodding, pestering, pushy nervous energy and also very sexy with heightened passions rising, demanding, urgent and in your face. Mars rules the muscles and Neptune fatigue and weakness which might be felt from the tension built up. With Mercury just moved direct, irritation in communications busy with misfires with some around issues with misleading, misrepresentation of information. Mercury in Pisces is vague, indirect and fused with many interpretations where information can get confounded with confusion and distortion.
Venus square Neptune on the Full Moon-devious confusing mixed messaging in relationships as well as a vivid imagination, creative inspiration and drunken stupors. Venus square Neptune-great time to be near water in either a bath or a nice sailboat ride, daydreaming sweet dreams about the latest romantic fantasy or crush. Neptune rules dreams and sleep and mine have been extra filled with drama with every night a few more stories my subconscious is orchestrating.
I am sitting here watching sunny skies and hail, waiting to see another rainbow. More Tornadoes and storms-Flooding in Fiji and Tornadoes near Dallas Texas-throwing 18 wheelers in the air and more violent shooting sprees in Oakland all attributed to the continued stress of Mars. We are getting closer to Uranus square Pluto which is building in the next two months. Transits such as this show their true grit often in this orb before the aspect goes exact. We are soon approaching a Solar Eclipse May 20th also elevating energies-this eclipse is very potent . The next few months are going to be very eventful, albeit shocking, sudden, exciting (Uranus) major transformations (Pluto).
Aviation is top of news as a Navy jet crashed into apartments in Virginia today. Canadian F 35 fighter jets fiasco-another near fait accompli deflected with an audit. The government just seems to like to spend our tax money like there is no tomorrow-not even going to bid on such a massive procurement. Such bungling estimates from 25 billion instead of 15 billion? Accountability in our current government just keeps coming up with misleading information. What makes it worse is all this money being wasted for useless fighter jets yet safety in air travel seems to be at risk with the level of inspections of planes=less resources. Taken to extremes with a pilot losing it in mid flight. Uranus rules aviation and hitting a trine to the nodal axis shows this coming to light and being exposed.
The Full Moon sits over Canada’s Neptune over the ASC. The misleading deceptive tactics along with the recent investigation into the election fraud is making many fed up with our current government practices. Canada is approaching a Saturn return in the next year. Accountability and consequences will be in the forefront. The Full Moon is over Prime Minister’s Harper’s Mercury in Aries highlighting his communication tactics. Harper has a Sun oppose Neptune showing he can be deceptive, vague and ambiguous. His Taurus Sun is in a kite pattern- a Taurus who can appear practical and grounded making sound decisions which is what helped him win the election although shrouded with his Sun oppose Neptune, showing through his recent evasive communications and actions. The pressure is mounting now that Harper resigns due to negligence and incompetence.
Birthdays this week:
Marlon Brando April 3
A very notable actor-bigger than life films. His Jupiter rising and Jupiter in Sagittarius shows this expansive reach-as well as his bellowing voice in “A Streetcar named Desire-“Stella!!” Marlon Brando was a ball of fire-his Sun Moon in Aries (born on a New Moon) which falls on this degree point of the Full Moon this week shows his gusto and bravado- harmonizing with his Sagittarius rising-shows how he gained weight later in life-typical of Jupiter and Sagittarius. This complex character of Jupiter verve and sizzling Aries heat with the darker side with his character in “The Godfather” with his intense strain of his Sun Moon square Pluto oppose Mars, passionate emotional heat in his roles. Pluto in his 8th house-the dark side, sinister and ruthless, exploitive power and his sizzling play in a Last Tango in Paris with his scintillating sexual charisma the tsquare of his Sun Mars Pluto in a tsquare depicts.
Robert Downey Jr April 4
Robert has an intriguing chart pattern pointing to some explanation of his past demons and torment with addiction. His Sun sits close to this Full Moon as well. Robert described his experience as the feeling of having a gun pointed in his mouth and he liked the taste of the metal. He has two very intense oppositions between very heavy forceful pulsating energies such as his Mars Uranus Pluto oppose Saturn and his escaping tendency proven with his Moon Jupiter oppose Neptune all surrounded and contained by a mystic rectangle (talent) and a perplexing YOD-adjustments. -that emotional energy is hard to contain with the added riveting drive of Mars Pluto Uranus leading to destructiveness in its release.
