Astro Daily: April 16, 2021

The Sun squares Pluto, an uncompromised push to transform that takes the energies of the Aries New Moon and remakes us with it. Yes, we’ve been in a time of new beginnings and restarts. But sometimes, in order to move forward, we have to let go of the past.

Pluto has a habit of reaching into the pipes of our soul and showing us exactly what’s there. Although never easy, it’s ultimately necessary for our evolution. You could say that 2020 was a Pluto year, what with its wrecking-ball like conjunction to Saturn. Many things ended last year, but for some there were silver linings.

Speaking of transformation, the Gemini Moon is a reminder that we’re only five weeks out from eclipse season. Although it may be a bit early to start thinking about, it’s common to start seeing eclipse energy and its swift movements in the month leading up to eclipses.

The next eclipses will be a Sagittarius lunar eclipse on May 26 and a Gemini solar eclipse on June 10.

If you are in AUSTRALIA or NZ, this forecast applies approximately for April 17-19.
