In 5784….During Cheshvan we learned that the Ancestral Superpower of Issachar’s Tribe is knowledge and discernment of the times. During Kislev we learn the light of Taurus brings peace to a troubled heart.
Taurus’ Tikkun for Tevet’s anger is cultivating joy.
Chodesh Shevat’s spiritual nourishment feeds your thoughts.
Double Adar 5784 restores joy in your communal relationships.Faith in your personal value system is reinforced during Adar Bet.
Chodesh Nissan’s tikkun of speech aligns with retrograde Mercury/Kochav when he conjuncts your planetary ruler Venus/Noga April 19, just before the conjunction in Taurus of Jupiter/Tzedek and Uranus/Oron on Shabbat HaGadol. Your spiritual imperative is to speak truth to your soul as well as to your Creator.
All self-deceit will be exposed, prompting a powerful teshuva when Venus conjuncts Chiron April 21, with the Taurus Sun square to Pluto. You’re not going backwards; you’re building momentum when Venus enters Taurus April 29 and squares Pluto April 30. New Moon in Taurus May 7, Erev Rosh Chodesh Iyar.
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.
