In 5784….During Cheshvan we learned that the ancestral superpower of Ephraim’s Tribe is harmonious partnership.During Kislev we learn that the light of Libra can expose hypocrisy, imbalances, and injustice.
Libra’s Tikkun for Tevet’s anger is a balanced truth.
Chodesh Shevat spiritually nourishes your intimate connections.
Chodesh Adar Aleph returns joyful equilibrium and balance to your mind-body connection.
Adar Bet tests your faith in partnerships.
Chodesh Nissan’s tikkun of speech is at home in the realm of partnerships. To be bold and forthright is not your diplomatic style, but direct needn’t be unpleasantly confronting.
Retrograde Mercury conjuncts your planetary ruler Venus/Noga April 19, sweetening words, and refining intentions. Show you care about reciprocity as well as feelings when Venus conjuncts Chiron April 21, with the Sun in Taurus square Pluto. You more than anyone cannot bear rigid power hierarchies and unfair imbalances!
No more Mister or Missus Nice Guy when Venus enters Taurus April 29, and squares Pluto April 30. Lead the revolt against disrespect!
CHODESH NISSAN 5784 (April 8 – May 7, 2024)
The tikkun of Chodesh Nissan is speech. The word Pesach is said by the Holy Arizal to be a conjugation of “Peh” and “Sach” – the mouth speaks. This alludes to reciting the Haggadah. Speaking the story of our historical redemption helps to bring redemption in our times – and the use of our speech to destroy one another is what delays our redemption. Unless we’re using the power of speech to create love and unity, we’re wasting our breath.
Retrograde Mercury/Kochav in Aries during the Aries Total Solar Eclipse Erev Rosh Chodesh Nissan brings the drama! Walk back an aggressive stance? Are promises made under duress made to be broken, and what are the consequences? Mars/Ma’adim conjuncts Saturn/Shabbtai in Pisces, and the Sun conjuncts retrograde Mercury April 10-11. We can’t simply muscle through the chaos without harming ourselves or others.
There’s a 3-day planetary panoply April 19-20. Mars sextiles Jupiter and Uranus April 19, the Sun enters Taurus, and retrograde Mercury conjuncts Venus. Shabbat HaGadol is the epochal conjunction of Jupiter/Tzedek and Uranus/Oron, which happens every 14 years and hasn’t occurred in Taurus since 1941. Venus conjuncts Chiron with the Sun square to Pluto on April 21. BIG SURPRISE: either a champagne supernova in the sky or a raw power play born of seething desperation.
Pesach’s Full Moon in Scorpio (because it’s a Pregnant “Leap” Year) reveals that emotionally, we’re all in a massive, worldwide trauma bond. “Dayanu” takes on multiple new layers of meaning.
The power of speech to create magical possibilities or magnificent delusions is possible when Mars conjuncts Neptune/Rahav April 28, before entering Aries April 30. With Venus entering Taurus and squaring Pluto April 29-30, there’s every hope that the power of love might be the strongest power of all. If we say so, may it be so.
