The Astrology of April
April 2022 is a very special month this year for it both begins and ends with a New Moon, indicating new beginnings.
The April 1st New Moon in Aries will truly usher in the start of the growing season this year (and hopefully the end of cold snaps!) and time is ripe for seeding early Spring plants like peas, greens, poppies and pansies.
The Sun-Moon conjunction (a new moon) will also include a conjunction to the major asteroid, Chiron, representing the wounded-healer. Both our vulnerability and an opportunity to deepen our wisdom and compassion will arise powerfully and deepen throughout this month.
Portal in the Sky: Full Moon/Equinox Weekend
The perfect symmetry of day and night opens an archetypal portal and the gateway to Springtime with the much needed rejuvenation of sunlight, budding plants and comfortable weather.
The Equinox is honored by making wishes and setting new intentions. The histories demonstrate human beings have been doing this since the dawn of consciousness.
Honor your ancestors and your Gods and ask for specifically what you most deeply desire to receive from this concupiscent season.
February 2022 Astrology
February begins under the spell of the Aquarius New Moon, now Void of Course and offering a penetrating spaciousness - a pervasive stillness. As the snowfall over the weekend cleansed the atmosphere of chaotic waves of manifestation, at Imbolc, we seek to cleanse the chaotic waves within our own consciousness.
Imbolc, on February 2 and adapted as GroundHog Day in the United States, marks the turning towards Spring and the time to plan for the seeds you will sow following Spring Equinox - now just 7 weeks away.
