The Moon moves out of Aries into Taurus at 7:23 AM EDT where it will last until Thursday - April 11, 2024 at 8:59 AM EDT.

The Moon in Taurus squares Pluto in Aquarius at 10:35 AM EDT. Lunar aspects have an 'orb of influence' of 12 to 14 hours 'before' and 'after' their exactness.

Note - this is Day 9 of 25 of Mercury Retrograde. In case you missed it, Mercury turned Retrograde (Rx) on Monday, April 1st. You may want to click back and read the RED FONT ADDENDUM to catch some of the ideas I gave you for using Mercury Retrograde to your advantage.

Well this day might be uneventul and uninteresting as most of our planetary excitement may have been all used up on the New Moon in Aries Solar Eclipse yesterday.

The Moon moves out of Aries into Taurus at 7:23 AM EDT and squares Pluto in Aquarius at 10:35 AM EDT. Since the Moon rules the emotions, feelings, moods and sensitivities, and Pluto is intense and loaded with power, the energy turns emotionally dramatic with possible volatility as the volume of emotions is turned up. Expressive outbursts puts it mildly.

This aspect can feel like an emotional burden that you just don't want to deal with, so you may find yourself ignoring, denying or dodging conversation. The Good news is this aspect will want to let go rather than try to hang on simply because the emotional energy is too dang heavy to carry, which would prove to be burdensome. Even though this aspect is confrontational, there is a part of this aspect that just doesn't want to confront anything, and then over-responds with, "That's it! Take it, take everything, just go and give me some peace and quiet!" Uhhhhh, emotional much?

On another note - this coming June, July and August 2024, I will 'not' be writing ANY Natal Charts or Solar Returns. It is also quite possible that I may stop sometime in May 2024, I just don't know that date yet. I'm lining up my Life so that I can take this break in order to complete a different project, which will take all of three (3) months to accomplish.

I believe EVERYONE should have their Natal Chart, which is pretty is the fingerprint of your Life. It never changes. At least 'they' haven't found a way to jack with your fingerprint like 'they' have your DNA. (Insert massive dose of smartassiness.) Thank God, the Natal Chart also reveals where health issues will arise, so there's that. Anyway, the Natal Chart never changes and it is something you are always working through and working on.

The Solar Return is the report that reveals what your 'year' will look like from one birthdate to another. So if your birthday is today, then your Solar Return chart begins and it will last until your birthday next year. Now keep in mind the Universe does not speak our language as in - Monday, March 11, 2024. The Universe rolls by math and coordinates. So your birthday may have actually been yesterday or maybe it is tomorrow, when your birth 'date' is March 11th.

The Solar Return is when the Sun 'returns' to the same degree and minute it was when you were born. So that could be a day earlier or a day later, depending on your residence (location) today, which is likely different than where you were born.

Some people will choose to go on a vacation on their birthday to change their location for their Solar Return and the Astrologer will calculate that location, but I do not agree with that method. It's not the Truth. You can't fool or trick the Universe. The Truth is it's a vacation, and you will still have to return back home to your Life, to your mortgage, your bills, your relationships, your neighbors, your job and dot dot dot.

In the Solar Return, each house represents one month. There are 12 houses, there are 12 months.

I advise you to get your Solar Return 'at least' three (3) months before you birthday, simple because the planets could already be coming into the 'orb of influence' and you would be feeling the energy.

For instance, Venus moves into Pisces today impacting all birthdays from today until April 5, 2024. Those of you with birthdays between today and April 5th will already in this Venus in Pisces energy. You need to know this, especially since Venus rules both Love and money.

So there ya' go. So I will take a chart writing break during June, July and August 2024, and if I get to the place that I want to be earlier, then I will start that break even earlier, which would be sometime in May 2024.
