4/18/22 ✨ Sun Square Pluto
✨ Happy Moon Day!
AFFIRMATION OF THE DAY: I embrace discomfort, knowing it is an integral step in transformation.
🪐 MAJOR TRANSITS:
♓️ VENUS SEXTILE ♉️ URANUS (13º) 12:15 AM PT
A supportive sextile between lover Venus and change-maker Uranus asks us to seek out pleasure in a new way. We might find ourselves attracted to eccentric people or drawn to odd situations. Creativity can bring through innovative ideas. This transit could also bring unexpected financial opportunities. Venus also rules our relationships- This aspect invites us to try expressing our affection a little differently… trying out a new love language could lead to positive connection.
♈️ SUN SQUARE ♑️ PLUTO (28º) 8:15 AM PT
As the fiery Aries sun squares off to Pluto in Capricorn, power struggles and ego tantrums are possible. This transit could bring our shadows to light in a sudden or unexpected matter. We could be quick to anger or aggression, especially if we feel we’re being manipulated. Ultimately, Pluto is here to transform, marking a pivotal (yet harsh) moment in the death and rebirth cycle. Once we release the need to be in control, we allow the alchemy to happen more easily.

THE MOON:
🌖 MOON IN SCORPIO ♏️
The Scorpio moon brings out our most intense emotions- anger included. Any feelings you’ve been suppressing will be hard to hide under this lunation. Rather than trying to remain a mystery, lean into the intimate nature of this transit and allow yourself to be vulnerable. It’s all part of the process of release.
♏️ MOON SQUARE ♒️ SATURN AND CONJUNCT ♏️ SOUTH NODE (23º) 8:00 AM PT
The moon squares off to Saturn and meets up with the South Node, forcing us to acknowledge the lessons we’re here to learn. By remembering past emotions (or even embodying them) as the moon comes into a conjunction with the South Node, we can realize why we’re meant to evolve and mature.
♏️ MOON TRINE ♓️ NEPTUNE, THEN TRINE ♓️ JUPITER (24-25º) 10:00 AM PT
As the moon harmonizes with the separating conjunction between Jupiter and Neptune, we gain a dose of optimism and imagination. This can feel like a reassurance that we are loved and supported, despite the difficulties life might be throwing at us. By going deep within, we can gain greater spiritual awareness and understanding of our growth potential.
♏️ MOON SEXTILE ♑️ PLUTO AND QUINCUNX ♈️ SUN (28º) 4:00 PM PT
The moon gets support from Pluto on Monday afternoon, helping us lean into transformation. We can gain a deeper understanding of our subconscious desires under this aspect. At the same time, the moon and sun make an awkward connection, reminding us that change often feels uncomfortable.
🌖 MOON ➡️ SAGITTARIUS ♐️ (7:30 PM PT)
The waning moon enters fun-loving Sagittarius, lightening the mood. Over the coming days, we can process our emotions by letting our hair down and opening to expansive experiences. By seeing silver linings, we can align with positive energy and find more freedom.

✨ TSJ’S TAKEAWAY:
Monday could mark a turning point in your transformation as the Aries sun squares off to Pluto in Capricorn. This aspect shines a light on our shadows, which could be painful or bring up intense emotions. Meanwhile, Venus and Uranus form a supportive sextile, attracting exciting connections and asking us to find new ways to express our love. We could be drawn to eccentric people or experiences today. The Scorpio moon starts the week with a harsh 90º angle to Saturn, forcing us to face our responsibilities. By the afternoon, the moon forms a watery trine to Neptune and Jupiter, allowing us to flow with optimism and imagine possibilities. The moon gets support from Pluto, pushing us through the uncomfortable release process coming off of the weekend’s full moon. When la luna moves into Sagittarius tonight, we can expect the mood to lighten over the coming days.
