💫 No major aspects: The Gardener's Daughter - Art & Poetry

And if I said that Fancy, led by Love, 

Would play with flying forms and images, 

Yet this is also true, that, long before I look'd upon her, when I heard her name

My heart was like a prophet to my heart,

And told me I should love.

[. . . ]

Into the world without; till close at hand,

And almost ere I knew mine own intent,

This murmur broke the stillness of that air

Which brooded round about her:

'Ah, one rose,

One rose, but one, by those fair fingers cull'd,

Were worth a hundred kisses press'd on lips

Less exquisite than thine.'"

 ~ Alfred Lord Tennyson, The Gardener's Daughter; or, the Pictures (excerpt)

💫 A Potential for Excess is today's forecast. 

Sun in Aries square Jupiter in Cancer late evening, presenting a potential for overdoing whatever we set our minds toward. 

Generosity is magnanimous; however, extravagancy beyond our means is detrimental. Keep your ego deflated when engaging others. Humility wins the most stubborn over, while arrogance pushes them further against you and/or your position. 

Allow the Sun to illuminate understanding and compassion today to gain ground with people and projects.

💫 A perfect atmosphere to clear weeds and prepare the soil for planting on or after Aprils' New Moon!

Venus conjunct Ceres in Taurus midafternoon to create a mythically magical and grounded experience in the natural cycles of nurturance. You're given an opportunity to reconnect "with your body, self-worth, and the abundance around you. 

Slow rituals, gardening, cooking and tending to comfort and security are essential acts of self-care", according to Louise Eddington, astrologer & author. 

This isn't the opportune time to plant, as the moon is waning; however, it's the perfect atmosphere to clear weeds and prepare the soil for planting on or after the New Moon in Aries April 17th. Connecting with the soil is grounding, nurturing, and reminds us that we are a part of, not separate from nature. 

We may also feel steadfast in our aspirations and/or more so appreciative of the arts, socializing, and intellectual conversation, particularly with this conjunct occurring in the 9th house of Sagittarius, the realm of higher mind and superconscious. Domestic beautification isn't off the agenda by a long shot.

💫 Merging with others as an extension of us is fine as long as the other is open to the energy. 

The Moon in Sagittarius square Mercury in Pisces.  Overlooking human differences is possible; thus, we have a tendency to merge with others as though they were an extension of ourselves. 

With the Moon OOB South, we may desire solitude and feel smothered by others. Or we may be the one suffocating others from doubt or insecurity. Tune into each person and follow your intuition through the fear. 

Guard your reactions and words carefully. Solitude and playful reflection are always safe bets.

💫 Channeling energy into something creative will prove exceedingly productive. 

Mars in Pisces sextile Uranus in Taurus at lunchtime. Mars is restless in Pisces, and its emotions are pretty unpredictable, especially on the anaretic degree; however, fallen Uranus can have us bursting with new ideas that can lead to significant reforms in our finances, resources, and local economics. 

Mars can channel its restless energy, initiative, and action toward the manifestation of these ideas. Take care not to limit yourself by placing too much emphasis on materialism. 

Designating energy toward something creative, such as music and art will also prove exceedingly productive during this time.

💫 This is an excellent day for strategizing a successful game plan or initiating the first steps toward a desired goal.

Mercury conjunct Pallas Athene in Pisces early afternoon in the realm of life, aspiration, higher mind, and superconscious. A perfect pairing for the prince of communication and goddess of wisdom, justice, patroness of the arts and protectress of the state. 

Through her all-encompassing perception, Pallas provides wise counsel to the people of the earth. Mercury adds an intellectual urge combined with an astute avenue of expression and reasoning ability. Its sensory perceptions coupled with Pallas' creative intelligence gives birth to forms of thought. 

Through her knowledge of the natural laws of manifestation, she functions as one’s capacity for realization and accomplishment.

This is an excellent day for strategizing a successful game plan or initiating the first steps toward a desired goal. Our awareness and sensory perceptions are honed and our communication peaked.
