It seems like the waves just keep coming and certainly time does not wait for anyone.
Here we are after a shattering two Eclipse's last month, breaking us apart for some, faced with the incoming Full Moon as April 12th approaches with gusto. Time marches onwards leaving us wondering 'what next' with each passing hour, let alone day!
It does beg the question however, ~ Just where is YOUR Focus? Out there or inside?
The beginning of April we all experienced the newness of Neptune in Aries, where we are trying it out for size. You may have felt some greater clarity and 'go for it' type energy since his ingress out of dreamy Pisces into impulsive Aries on March 30th.
Mercury stationed direct in the wee hours of the 6th April for those east of the west coast USA, PDT & HST it will be on the 7th April, assisting us to think a little straighter and communicate more succinctly. Venus stations direct less than an hour after the Full Moon assisting us to have clarity about what we feel. Timely indeed.
The Full Moon in Libra April 12th is @5.22pm PDT

We are blessed with this Full Moon in Libra with a stellar Water Trine with Saturn exactly trining Mars fuelling Mars to make the dream real ~ bring it into form with some compassion added to it - literally releasing a pressure valve that has been building through March. (watch for people who cannot contain themselves). Juno or Hera from Ancient Greece, the Goddess of Equality & Commitment, joins in with Mars and Saturn, and in Sagittarius, instils truth to be at the fore, core values to be upheld, whilst instilling a committed long term harmonic.
Hera wields quite some power.
Venus, the ruler of this Full Moon, is stationing Direct, less than 1 hour after the Full Moon moment - meaning, 'she is on a strong footing' with a message to deliver.
Her message? Create spiritual structures in your life with all your relationships, forgive and let go as a constant. Be compassionate to others as we know not their experience or passage in truth - we haven't walked in their moccasins. Allow for more Love to flow into your life - after all, She IS, the Goddess of Love merged with Neptune, the ruler of Pisces, asking us to initiate and pioneer new ways to express our love to the others who may come and go. Sensitivities run high.
Uranus offers a unique and magical hand of creativity to Venus & Saturn, whilst the trine to Pluto still builds formidable support for our future reconstruction projects. Note: This is very GOOD and will continue for the next three years or so. Please realise that all is not lost.
(We are presently witnessing the necessary breakdown and destruction of the old world whilst we witness, if we focus on it, the reconstruction of the new - Remember, Change is never comfortable & Our life, will always be about what we focus on).

Chiron stands in the same degree as the Sun, just 19 minutes away, at this Full Moon, highlighting the need and desire to preserve all that is within your beautiful essence and flow, upgrade to your next level of your 'I AM', fight for what you know to be your truth. BE every part of who you see yourself to be. Chiron acts like a kind of mediator with the transpersonal planets - Uranus, Neptune & Pluto. With deep compassion yet with a determined desire at this point, to crack us open taking us to the places we don't necessarily want to go. He is a tough healer, ruthless at times, yet emanates tremendous instinctual qualities; being very connected to the animal world. We are also, on a collective level, concurrently working through some old but necessary karma's that need to be seen (highlighted by the Sun so close), and expunged, or better yet, rooted out.
Where have we been shut down, why have we suppressed our instinctual knowing over the past decades?
It is time to rise and pioneer our next level of individuality, focusing on our needs whilst bringing nourishment to our selves as we go along.
If we say no to Chiron by suppression, we set up chronic, recycled suffering. The world is in this very state with chronic, suppressed wounds festering. The ruler of Aries, the sign that the Sun, Chiron & Eris are in, including Neptune to make a point - is Mars.
Currently, Mars is out of Bounds acting in unpredictable, extreme and possibly emotional ways and is in a T-Square to this Full Moon, Eris, & Chiron - a tense aspect indeed. He therefore is demanding justice, action with focus, interjecting that we think of others whilst you pioneer that new project but factor yourself into the equation with a refined, cooperative outlook with fairness for all, fostering partnership/s. Be mindful to harness your emotions in all circumstances during this possibly testy time, using your Breath practices to see you through.

Eris, sister to Mars, stands on the other side of the Sun, nearly two degrees away - so still close - calling forth the flame of justice, the need for inclusion and fairness, for those who have been marginalised, demonised, ignored or rejected. She urges us to reclaim the parts of ourselves that have been fractured on any level by patriarchal power. Her call is to stand up against oppression and inequality world wide. She is relentless.
The plight of the Palestinian people comes to mind here!
Eris wishes to reset the balance of power and reclaim lost ground. She also assists us to walk away if we want any semblance of peace within, coming to a place of acceptance that people do terrible things. What is your level of acceptance?
Eris will fight for the disenfranchised and strengthen our spirit to stand up. Marches across the country March 5th are no surprise at this point. Perhaps there are uncomfortable truths to be faced about how we have treated Mother Earth. Eris is also is an expression of Mother Nature becoming aware of Herself. Hence, along with Uranus's help, she too, takes part in the destruction of earthquakes, the boiling lava in a volcano going off, the flooding of relentless rains washing away what has induced harshly upon her. Uprooting all that has exploited or oppressed.
Lastly, we are also moving into the waxing build up to the 3rd opposition of Mars to Pluto. Dynamic and powerful, these two power players move in for their final showdown on April 26th/27th. The first was back on November 3rd 2024, right before election day here in the USA. The 2nd opposition was on January 3rd 2025. These two celestial forces of power elicit deep primordial, unconscious fears and desires stirring the underbelly revealing for the final look.
What obscures your Soul's true desire for your hearts' fulfilment? What barrier has stood in the way? Can you reach deeper and find your courage to push through?
Powerful days we are in for sure. Follow your heart and breathe consciously through each and every moment.
and remember ....

I leave you with a Poem by Deborah Anne Quibell from her small book,
'Song Bird'. Poems for Flying
UNDERNEATH the VEIL
There is no single magic formula except this:
Find what you feel is Holy and follow it.
Follow it with every breath,
Let every inhale
and every exhale
pull you
further
into its magnificence.
This pursuit is only yours.
Persuasion comes from the lips
of your heart,
and your heart alone.
From here forward, my love,
every doubting voice
will dissolve
into the beauty
you are becoming.
And silence
will fall upon the loud voice
that for too long
has kept you veiled.
