In general: Mars, will be turning direct on Friday, April
13th. Whenever a planet is changing directions, it can make things more challenging.
On the positive side, Mars is very close to the Earth right now and set for easy
observation. Look for Mars in the eastern sky shortly after sundown. It will be
2 years before Mars is this close again! The energy of things in general is starting to speed up
again and things that we may have been finding tough to get moving are now
ready to be propelled forward. Work should be stacking up, and relationships
might get ignored as a result on April 14th and 15th, so be aware.
But, life will certainly improve on April 16th as Mercury re-enters Aries. If
your birthday is to be celebrated this week then enjoy the increased energy of
the year ahead. On the world scene things will be more volatile, inspiring and dramatic.
Locally check out Mars and Saturn!
Aries
Life in general should pick up and get better this week. Your energy levels are healthier too and you
feel much more up to the tasks of everyday life. You are thinking with
inspirational and clarity at this time too and this makes all challenges much
more within your abilities to deal and fix! You revel in this!
Taurus
It’s time for some personal regeneration and to do this you
need to get rid of any old issues and paraphernalia that you no longer require.
For your greatest growth and to embrace wonderful opportunities all you need to
do is trust and be prepared to take a big leap of faith! You will not regret
it!
Gemini
It’s easy to be the centre of attention this week! Your
charisma is reaching new heights and others are noticing you in the best
possible way! You have emotional support and opportunity this week so be
prepared by knowing what you want and where you’re going and the rest will
naturally and easily fall into place.
Cancer
Be assertive if you need to be this week as others have a
way of getting you to fulfil their needs at the expense of your own! It’s too
easy to be lead down the garden path at this time! Home and family will provide
some much needed changes for you however and some truly regenerating energy is
at hand.
Leo
You are getting itchy feet and many of you will travel or
plan travel this week. You have a new found enthusiasm for life and living and
are making the most of everything! The social side of life is continuing to be
busy and full. Pace yourself on the 16th as a few unexpected changes
can push you off course.
Virgo
Plans seem slow to take effect and you may feel as if you are
at a standstill this week. Do not despair as this is only temporary and things
will move with a good pace from the end of the week onwards. In the meantime
take care of details and give yourself a well-earned rest and recuperation spell
and keep smiling!
Libra
This week you are beginning to feel more like your usual light-hearted
and positive self again. A big focus is relationships and you are clearer and
more settled with a love one. You are restless now and interesting and
aesthetic learning experiences appeal. It’s a great time for travel and new
educational opportunities.
Scorpio
Work is the major focus this month. You are taking more
pride than usual in your work and creative energies are high. You will find
that some things happen quite unexpectedly around this week too. Keeping plans
to a minimum is probably a good idea! Finances are looking good and a small boost
to the income is likely.
Sagittarius
It’s a creative and inspirational week! Recreation, romance
and entertainment seem to be the priorities at this time. It’s all about enjoying
life! Week’s end sees you feeling more inclined to share your creative ideas
with others and also sees you having greater clarity about your life direction.
Others enjoy listening!
Capricorn
This is a week to recharge your batteries and get in touch
with your dreams and wishes again. The work arena seems happier and more harmonious
than it has in some time and others are more responsive generally. Others are drawn
to you and you are well liked and respected at this time. Social activity
revolves around work.
Aquarius
This is a strong week for social activity and opportunities
to learn and engage in interesting conversations abound. You seem eternally busy,
running here and there on various errands. Without much effort on your part
your natural charisma attracts others to you and those looking for love could
well find it.
Pisces
Home life is more enjoyable and you feel more supported than
you have in some time. Finances may need an overall and it’s a good time to
rework the budget. You can be unreasonably resistant to change at this time however
and seem to be very wanting of comfort zones! It does not hurt to break the mould
a little!
Astral Peeks: Saturn at opposition
Saturn reaches opposition on Monday 16 April 2012. This
astronomical term means that Saturn will rise as the Sun sets and sets as the
Sun rises the following morning. It happens once every (approximately) 54
weeks. Opposition is also when Saturn is at its closest to the Earth, and
therefore easiest to locate in the night sky. Look low above the Eastern
horizon for a pale yellow bright star as evening twilight ends.
Saturn will be at opposition on the night of Monday 16 April
2012. Note that Saturn will continue to be visible for many months after
opposition. After opposition, Saturn will appear higher in the sky as each
night goes by and slowly grow dimmer as the Earth moves away from Saturn.
Meditation Moments: Sound
Sound heals. Mothers know this intuitively, crooning
soothingly or singing a lullaby to their crying babies. Sound heals also when
applied explicitly though music, song or bells, or even Tibetan singing bowls.
When used during healing sessions, these sound modalities can have a deep
impact. The gong is one of the oldest instruments of healing and has been used
for thousands of years in meditation, ceremony and rituals. The sounds from the
gongs travel from the outer ear throughout the body via the vagus nerve,
impacting brain waves, respiratory rate and heart rate.
The psychic Edgar Cayce forecast that the medicine of the future would be sound. And, indeed, we are moving into that future or so it seems. Interestingly major corporations are employing the use of sound in a variety of resourceful ways to counter the effects of workplace stress. The California corporate headquarters of Toyota have a unique approach for overcoming stress and building morale with their ‘Toyota drum circle.’ ‘Drumming away stress’ sessions are also being offered by New York psychotherapist Robert Friedman for a range of clients including companies such as Xerox and Time-Warner. Dr. Jeffrey Thompson, Director of the Centre for Neuroacoustic Research, has developed programs using sound for Nike, Cisco Systems and Mattel that enhance creativity, productivity and health and wellness.
