Venus Conjunct Chiron & Sun Square Pluto April 21st, 2024: Alchemizing Pain Into Strength & Wisdom4/21/2024 If you've been going through the ringer since around March 20th, the turning point in your healing journey has arrived - but stay alert to insecurities triggering power dynamics.
Today, Venus in Aries is going to be passing by Chiron in Aries, but at the same time, the Taurus sun (under Venus' rule) is squaring up to Pluto in Aquarius on it's way to Tuesday's Scorpio full moon climax and release. This means that there's a definite possibility that deep fears and insecurities might get triggered. The trick is to stay aware of motives and focus on reclaiming your personal power from it. True power has no need to control or manipulate - this happens inside of you. Don't be surprised if you are being called to let go of something for good between now and mid-week.

The Jupiter-Uranus conjunction has arrived! This new cycle beginning (think: expansion, growth, and innovation in the realm of resources and earthly abundance) is being made all the more potent by a boost from bold Mars in idealistic Pisces.
We've been doing big work since around the March equinox around sense of self, identity, and self-value, and now it's time to boldly go where we haven't dared go before - it's time to transcend those upper limits and expand into a new level of love and abundance in our lives. I just have one question: have you created the strong roots and foundation to make this expansion sustainable for you? The sun leaving Aries and landing in verdant and lush Venus-ruled Taurus is truly a healing balm for our souls, soothing the aridness of so much Aries action over the past weeks.
And it just so happens that this is occurring at the exact same time ruler of Taurus, Venus, crosses paths with Mercury retrograde in Aries and we have the Jupiter-Uranus conjunction in Taurus. Jupiter and Uranus only come together every 14 years or so, and in Taurus, this expansive alignment only happens about every 80 years. This is big - if you're feeling the symptoms of "ascension flu" this week, I wouldn't be surprised. But more on this alignment tomorrow - the day it is exact. Today let's talk about what's on today - sun into Taurus as Venus aligns with Mercury retrograde in Aries. Over the coming weeks, all the way through late May, Lilith in Virgo is working with major astrological transits to help you break free from perfectionism and the need to perform for validation.
This includes breaking free from restrictive societal and cultural expectations, oppressive standards, glass ceilings and exploitation, your own insecurities that would have you under-valuing yourself, over-giving, and constantly efforting (whether in relationships or in career and workplace) to prove your worth. The Next 5 Days are Bringing Huge Energy - Get Ready!
This is your "heads up" to start preparing yourself now for the next five days of big energies carrying us right into Tuesday's emotional climax of the Scorpio full moon in growth aspect to Pluto. Venus transiting the north node this week is bringing us full circle from the big Libra full moon "breakaway" eclipse that occurred back on March 25th.
That's because Venus is the ruler of Libra, where the south node currently is right now, and the south node is one the eclipse point of karma, past, and release. If you're feeling anger bubbling up "out of nowhere" this week, I'm not surprised with so much going on in Aries having to do with healing the wounds of self that have kept us out of balance within and in our relationships.
This astrology is about healing, and when we begin to heal, all the emotions, including repressed anger, can begin surfacing. The thing is, it's hurting you and your relationships, keeping you from the love you want. Here's why: This Monday, April 15th, isn't just the Cancer moon squaring up to the Aries sun for our first quarter moon choice point, it's the second out of three conjunctions between Mercury (the mind and messenger) and Chiron (the wounded healer) in Aries, sign of self.
This is our first in a series of major healing alignments that are taking us right into the Jupiter-Uranus conjunction in Taurus on April 20th, a very cathartic Scorpio full moon on April 23rd, Mercury direct on April 25th, and then finally, the stabilizing Taurus new moon on May 7th. If there's healing still to do around this Chiron and north node in Aries theme for you, you're going to be feeling this. The depth and level of healing work left to be done around this will determine how you experience this astrology. PAY ATTENTION TO EMOTIONS & OLD WOUNDS COMING UP THIS WEEK....if it's coming up, it's time to heal it. This is beginning the evening of Sunday April 14th and then building into Monday the 15th as Mercury retrograde conjuncts Chiron, the wounded healer, in Aries for the second of three times, and the Cancer moon squares the Aries sun for the first quarter moon choice point.
With major healing vibes happening, and the moon, our subconscious and emotions and need for emotional security and belonging in a hard aspect to the sun, conscious will and ego in the sign of self, Aries, we are likely to really be feeling resistance or emotions coming up Monday, and if its coming up, it needs our attention so it can be healed. But it doesn't stop there - by Wednesday, 4/17, Venus is conjunct the north node of soul growth, meaning in opposition to the south node of karma, past, and release. Venus is the ruler of Libra and relationships, and the ruler of that major full moon eclipse we had on March 25th - the one that likely brought any unhealthy relationships or dynamics and patterns in relationships to a head for release or transformation. Venus' alignment with the north node in Aries on Wednesday is like us coming full circle from that 3/25 full moon eclipse - if there's any loose ends still left hanging out there, this is likely the time things are going to be settled one way or another. It's also likely to open any old wounds that need healing now so we can fully move forward. This is happening with the north node of soul growth in Aries, so the direction here is moving towards a healthier sense of self value and worth. Then on Fri. 4/19, Venus aligns with Mercury retrograde - again this is about bringing up any issues that need healing that would keep us from a healthier perception of ourselves. On Sun. 4/21, Venus moves into a conjunction with Chiron, again about healing the wound of self that would have us playing small, abandoning ourselves, people-pleasing, etc. Don't be surprised if it feels intense, because on that same day, Sun. 4/21, the Taurus sun will be forming a growth aspect to Pluto in Aquarius just before the moon opposes it for the Scorpio full moon 4/23. All of this is leading us right up to a major emotional catharsis. The more you can lean into whatever discomfort comes up this week as Venus brings her healing balm to the Aries line up, the easier the powerful Scorpio full moon will likely be. It's all supporting you in crafting more love in your life, and getting the love you want. It starts with you - within you. As within, so without. If you'd like my blueprint for getting you from where you are now to getting the love you want, just CLICK HERE to message me - let's chat! The moon lands in its own sign of Cancer Saturday, April 13th at 13:44 ET and will remain there until Monday the 15th at 22:23 ET, and its helping us tune into our emotional body and the past to prepare us for a week (or two even) of deep healing beginning Monday April 15th moving us right through the 4/23 Scorpio full moon. Don't be surprised if things get a little moody from midday Saturday through Monday evening.
This is because the moon will be strong in its own sign of Cancer, carrying us right into Monday's first quarter moon square (the halfway point between the Aries new moon eclipse and the upcoming cathartic Scorpio full moon). First quarter moons are always times when internal conflict brings us to a "choice point," as the moon, ruler of our inner world, subconscious, and need for belonging and emotional security comes to an intersection with the sun, our ego, personality, and conscious will. This one just happens to be coming on the heels of last Monday's major Aries new moon eclipse, just before we move into a week of major transformation and healing featuring tons of action in Aries centered around Mercury retrograde there making alignments with Chiron, Venus, and the north node as Venus moves through the Aries line up crossing paths with Mercury backtracking. Make no mistake, whatever comes up now is coming up for healing, and your emotions are the messengers. You have to feel it to heal it. The coming week, the cosmos is offering you incredible support in healing those old wounds of your heart, those wounds to self that keep you holding back, stuffing down, doubting, and playing small once and for all, but at first, it might feel like all the pain is being reactivated. Those wounds have to be stirred and brought to the surface to be healed and released. The healing can happen when you choose to react and handle things differently when they come up this time, when you stay in the present moment, in your power, in your inherent value and worth, and don't go on the ride and get trapped in that painful past dimension. And Cancer moons have a reputation for taking us down memory lane. Remember that the moon and Cancer are about connection, belonging, and creating emotional security, and all of this astrology is building towards the April 23rd Scorpio full moon square Pluto - catharsis that will fully clear out what's been up since the 3/25 Libra full moon eclipse. This is about letting go of the past and stepping into a new energetic dimension - one where you are shining that heart light bright in full authenticity with an unshakable sense of self, value, and worth. The good news is, I have a blueprint for getting you from where you are now to that new energetic dimension, and I'd love to share it with you. If this sounds good to you, let's chat!
