In this blog post we’ll be taking a look at the general energetic overview for 2019 and each month I’ll add the energies for that particular month to this post so that it’s all in one place and easy to find.
Let’s get this started…
2019 - the year of...
XII THE HANGED MAN & III THE EMPRESS
The major energies for 2019 are those of the Hanged Man with the underlying energies of the Empress who will be supporting and colouring our experiences.
We begin the year with the energies almost at a standstill - and thank goodness for that, because 2018 was tough. We are being asked to stop and take a moment - and yes, there will be many of these calls to stop what we’re doing throughout the year - pause, and feel into our heart to see whether our current ideas, plans and visions are actually in alignment with where we are being guided.
Many will find that they’ve been working towards something that no longer serves them or has ceased to light them up. So what do we do here? Well, we evaluate and if necessary re-evaluate our current direction. We are asked to call upon Source/God/Goddess/the Universe for support and guidance...and then we open ourselves up to the answers showing up in unexpected ways.
We are being asked to look at things - life, ourselves, others - from a different perspective and to feel into our current energetic reserves and call in more if necessary.
It’s time to release what no longer serves and to begin to go with the flow and allow the energy of acceptance of what is into our life. Another energy that we can begin to tap into is surrender, but we’re not all there just yet. You’ll know when you reach that point and when you do, you’ll find that things flow into and out of your life much more easily.
It’s interesting that the Empress is one of the cards for 2019 as Venus (the symbol in the heart shape) is not participating in any retrograde action this year which means all sorts of juiciness for love and money in our lives - but more of that in the monthly sections.
This year will ask us to spend time in nature or our personal sacred space, feeling into the inner shifts and taking steps to continue to better our experience of our life. Some will find that pregnancy will feature in their 2019 journey - this can be physical pregnancy or the creative kind.
If we listen to our inner wisdom and act accordingly, we will find the energies of the Hanged Man and the Empress to be supportive and nurturing in a year that finds us creating a beautiful foundation for the next chapter of our life.
Themes:
Suspended animation - stopping time and taking time out; alternative perspectives; taking a breath; pregnancy; gestation; creativity; emotional support; Divine guidance; energetic shifts for love and money; surrender; releasing what no longer serves; gentle release; presence; clarity; stripping things right back - simplifying things; Goddess energy; nature; healing; comfort; decluttering; taking back one’s power; seeing how we’ve given our power away; acceptance and release of guilt, blame and shame; co-creating our reality.
January
XIII DEATH & IV THE EMPEROR
The energies for January relate to continuing the transitions that we started back in 2018. It’s about completing what we’re currently working on as well as releasing what no longer serves us as we make our way forward in the different areas of our lives - it’s better to focus on one at a time.
We may find ourselves coming up against - and quite strongly too - the old conditioning that we’re in the process of dissolving. This calls upon us to decide once and for all just who is calling the shots in our life. Be prepared for things to get uncomfortable - this is always the way when we begin to dissolve layers of lifetimes of beliefs and conditioning.
Remember this: you are not at the beginning of this stage - you’re so close to unravelling the energetic patterns and debris that have held you back for way too long, so don’t give up now - yes, I know it can feel overwhelming at times, but reach out for help - there is no need to do this alone.
💕 Take a moment...take a breath, place your hand on your heart and know that the Universe loves and supports you - take another breath...and another, until you feel this Truth vibrating from with you.
As the month progresses, so too do our limited perceptions of life and all of the illusions that we’ve been operating under and we find ourselves not only feeling, but also thinking in a more expansive way.
Use the immense potential of this energy of Death and the Emperor to keep moving through what is ready to be released, keep moving towards what your heart and Soul bring to your awareness, and know that YOU are the rightful authority figure in and of your life.
The focus here is on creating and establishing a strong and stable foundation that will hold you in good stead for the year ahead.
Themes:
Release; transitions; transformation in progress; authority figures; claiming authority over one’s life; discipline; trust; faith; passion; drive; determination; Purpose; establishing strong foundations for the future; stubbornness; reluctance; pride; egotism; victim and martyr energy; the promise of a new day; intention; making conscious decisions and choices.
Major Celestial Movements for January...
1st January:
♂ Mars into♈ Aries
Mars moving into his home sign of Aries helps us to tap into the fire within. Passion is ignited.
Projects that were on the back burner may now be ready for the next stage. New projects/invitations may 'appear' seemingly out of the blue - do allow some time to think these through, even if you only dedicate a short amount of time to planning/thinking about them, you'll be better off than if you were to just forge ahead without giving consideration to any consequences of your actions.
5th January:
☿ Mercury into ♑ Capricorn
Mercury moving into Capricorn helps us to not only keep working towards our goals, dreams and visions, but also offers the gift of the intellect to help continue to drive us towards the achievement of what we hold dear.
We may be gifted with new inspiration, ideas or advice that may just bring about a shortcut or much easier way of doing things - don't let the Capricorn energy keep you plugging away at the tried and tested methods that you have in place; allow for new ways of doing things by asking: 'is there a simpler or more direct way to do this?' and 'do I have to do this myself or are there others/systems that can help me out here?'
You don't get points for taking the long road - but you do get points for finishing off the tasks that you've been working on. It's time to start moving through your to-do list so that you can create space in your schedule for you.
6th January:
🌑 New Moon in ♑ Capricorn - partial solar eclipse
As I’ve been getting back in the flow of things, I shared the New Moon energy reading over on my page instead of the blog, you can check out the post here.
7th January
♀ Venus into ♐ Sagittarius
As Venus makes her way into and through Sagittarius, we begin to feel more adventurous in our daily life. We begin to consider new or alternative ways to inject fun, adventure and spontaneity into our life.
Relationships with Self and others begin to transform now even if we cannot see or imagine how just yet - the underlying energies of relationships are changing and we will begin to feel and see this healing over the course of 2019.
♅ Uranus direct in ♈ Aries
Uranus, planet of lightning changes and flashes of insight and inspiration moves into Aries bringing renewed enthusiasm to follow through with spontaneous ideas or flashes of inspiration.
Our inner revolutionary begins to step up and helps us to initiate changes that we've been holding back from making. We feel more courageous as these two energies come together. We may become less concerned with consequences than usual, so do ensure that you think things through before taking action that involves consequences for others.
Don't be surprised if you start to receive insights that will lead to solo travel or relocation sometime this year - independence, personal revolution and changes in one's living situation should not be discounted. We are beginning to 'feel' into the potential that exists for and around us.On the other hand, it’s also possible to get or feel angry/irritated out of the blue - sit with it or take note and keep an eye on it and you’ll be able to see the threads that connect this anger or irritation to other areas of your life soon enough.
14th January:
🌓 1st Quarter Moon in ♈ Aries
The 1st Quarter Moon energy reading was posted over on my page, you can read the post here.
20th January:
☉ into ♒ @ 7.53pm (AEDT)
The Sun moving into Aquarius brings us the energies of new ideas and inspiration, emotional detachment and the ability to move through current projects with rational intent.
As with all energies we can harness these Sun-Aquarius energies or allow them to control us.
Aquarius is an air sign and is ruled by Saturn and Uranus which gifts us the qualities of intuition, the ability to work within established boundaries, it offers the opportunity to work with and for the collective rather than on a one-to-one basis - we are able to see the bigger picture and how one's actions affect the collective, whilst also making us more able to move from situation to situation or place to place on a whim.
With Aquarius energy in our natal chart we find that we have the ability to think progressively - although our thinking at times might upset the apple cart due to its unpredictable and at times eccentric nature, we find that it's best to work independently which suits our nature just perfectly - Aquarians are known to make quick decisions and change their direction just as quickly, which makes working independently a much better option for them.
The Sun is the central source of energy for our solar system, and on a personal level it represents our self-esteem and confidence, it highlights our sense of purpose, our ambition and determination. When we don't harness our solar energy correctly we end up being self-centred, selfish, and arrogant.
21st January:
🌕 Full Moon in ♌ Leo - total lunar eclipse

24th January:
☿ Mercury into ♒ Aquarius
Mercury the Messenger moves into air sign Aquarius - be prepared for and influx of ideas, inspiration, advice - advice that you seek and unsolicited advice too, be open to learning and studying, honouring the inner call to explore what independence means to and for you, meditation, puzzles and anything else that allows you to explore and expand your intellect and knowledge-base. Keep a notepad close by!
You may receive insights into the future - short or long term - and find yourself entertaining the thoughts that arise from these insights. The advice for now is: don't discount anything, anything is possible - even when you cannot see how it's going to come about, and trust the passion that stirs from within to guide you on your path.
There is immense potential available to us now and the way in which we respond to the possibility of this potential is what will determine the fruition of our goals, dreams and visions for ourselves and those whose lives we touch.

February
XIV TEMPERANCE & V THE HIEROPHANT
February is the month for healing and balancing our mind, body and spirit, and for determining who calls the shots in and of our life.
We are called to tend to the parts of Self that are in need of our love, attention and affection, and we are reminded that the goal, dream or vision that we are working towards will still be there for us when this healing stage has been tended to. We will be able to come back and refocus with much greater clarity and a deeper connection to our vision.
So often we think that we will miss out on our goal if we take some time away from it. At this point in time, we are being reminded that the goal cannot be reached - at least not to its potential - until we tend to the healing that we’ve been avoiding up until now.
When life feels chaotic, when things feel as though they’re out of our control, when we feel as though we aren’t keeping up with others demands, this is when we are out of alignment with our Soul and need to tend to our needs - failure to make ourselves a priority at this time will lead to burnout in the short term and avoidable dis-ease in the longer term.
Look at your life - what feels out of control? Where are others calling the shots? What is your heart/Soul calling for? Pay attention to your body’s messages - they will tell you what you need to know if you only take the time to go within.
The energies will support you if you honour them. Take time for you - your emotions speak to you of what is need of attention, love and affection - the more you listen and take guided action, the more emotionally balanced and grounded you’ll feel.
Right now it’s about finding the path of least resistance - you cannot keep burning the candle at both ends. If you find yourself shifting between feeling hyper-energised one minute and flat and drained the next - you’re way out of alignment and need to do something now to bring some balance into your life.
Take a look around you, aren’t the people around you more than capable of taking on their share of the work? Start delegating or stop doing what they’re capable of doing for themselves - it’s time that everyone took responsibility for themselves.
Themes:
Anxiety; panic; feeling rundown or burned out; being at others beck and call; doing for others - but from a place of resentment or guilt rather than love; in need of healing; Archangel Michael; destiny awaits; taking responsibility; accountability for one’s actions; honour thy Self; feeling disconnected from traditional religion or teachings; looking outside of Self for answers rather than going within; emotional healing is needed; emotional imbalance in need of attention; spend time in nature; listen to your self-talk; making oneself a priority; energy healing; spiritual healing and connection is available to you; taking time to heal will reignite the fire and passion within.
Major Celestial Movements for February...
4th February:
♀ Venus into ♑ Capricorn
Venus, planet of peace, love, beauty, attraction and money moves into slow, steady and disciplined Capricorn and stays there for the entire month.
Venus wants us to be surrounded by things that are beautiful to look at, sensual to the touch and she wants us to look good whilst doing it so there may be a sense of wanting to look good or make an extra effort with our appearance this month.
Capricorn wants us to keep working towards our goals and staying on track, he isn’t concerned so much with what things look like, more that things are getting done and that we’re making progress. Capricorn calls us to take a more practical approach to life and the task at hand.
Venus in Capricorn highlights our relationships and how realistic we are being not only in terms of our needs vs. wants, but we’re being asked to see how willing and able we are to compromise and meet others halfway.
These energies enable us to really feel into what it is that we desire to have in our lives - think comfort, think practical, think gratitude - it’s about creating a sense of home no matter where we are; and we’re being asked to focus more on the daily actions that we take rather than the lofty goals we may be projecting into the future.
It’s all about creating a stable and functional foundation, not only for today, but also for the future; and we’re reminded that it’s perfectly okay to surround ourselves with things that look great and make us feel good, but at the end of the day we also need to look at how functional these things are and/or whether there’s someone else who might make better use of them.

10th February:
☿ Mercury into ♓ Pisces
Mercury the messenger and planet of communications moves into watery, emotional Pisces and remains there until mid-April. Mercury turns retrograde in early March for three weeks, but more about that next month.
Mercury’s entry into Pisces was quite clunky - one minute we were making progress with our goals, and the next we were questioning everything and feeling not only confused, but also quite foggy as well.
When Mercury has us feeling this way, he’s presenting the opportunity for us to become more aware of our emotions - which is where many of us get stuck. We’re not used to tuning into the emotions and deciphering them, so it feels as though we’re standing in front of an enormous mountain without the appropriate equipment.
Thankfully - or not, depending on how you feel about Mercury - due to his longer stint in Pisces, he’s offering us some extra time to really delve into some of the big emotional baggage that we’ve been carrying around - you know, the stuff you keep telling yourself you’re too busy to deal with.
Now’s the perfect time and I have just the thing to help you to navigate what lies ahead…
I’ve created a Mercury Essence that will help you to harness his energies and will guide you to a much more aligned state of Presence of mind and being, bringing an awareness of Self and a connectedness to your personal Truth that you would otherwise be unable to recognise.

🌓 1st quarter Moon in ♉ Taurus @9.26am (AEDT)

14th February:
♂ Mars into ♉ Taurus
Mars, the god of war, planet of the Masculine principle that helps us to tap into our courage, strength and our ability to get things done moves into steady, dependable Taurus.
If our Mars energy isn’t harnessed correctly, we can become impulsive, impatient, hostile and abusive or violent, but when Taurus brings his energy to the mix, we have the opportunity to do good things with all of that Mars energy.
We can focus our attention on the task at hand, we are better able to channel our energy into projects that create stability and that will have a lasting impact. We are more appreciative of the effort that goes into creating something of lasting value, and we have a tendency to want to do it for others as well as for ourselves.
Mars in Taurus can be just the thing to get us out of our own way, and seeing as these two are collaborating until the end of March, we have time to get things done - there’s no need to rush. You might just find that you’ll be presented with some amazing opportunities along the way so tap into the Mars energy and get yourself sorted for the remainder of the year!
18th February:
⚷ Chiron into ♈ Aries
Chiron, known as the WOUNDED HEALER moves into fiery Aries. The last time Chiron was in Aries was mid-April 2018 until late-September 2018.
The rest of 2018 he spent time travelling through Pisces which, to give a bit of background information, is why 2018 felt so emotionally draining and had us feeling as though we’d been put through the wringer - that’s an understatement, I know.
Now as Chiron moves into Aries, we find ourselves ready to take action - and hopefully we’ve done some inner work - hopefully a decent amount - so that we know which direction we’re headed in.
At the early stages of this transit we’re going to be feeling a little discombobulated - we’ll be experiencing both the emotional Chiron in Pisces energies and the impulsive and ready-to-go Chiron in Aries energies for a little while until Chiron settles into Aries. For now, we’ll be tying up loose ends of unresolved and uninvestigated emotional debris and if we’re not, NOW is the time to start doing so.
If you don’t know where to start, find someone who can guide you through it - go with whatever healing modality calls to you. The energies are ripe for healing the old emotional debris so that we can clear the deck for the Chiron in Aries energies otherwise we’re really going to struggle - and I mean struggle...with...everything - here’s what we can expect:
Chiron in Aries will bring issues of unresolved/uninvestigated Masculine energy to the fore - and we all have masculine and feminine energy, no matter what gender we are. Collectively, we can expect to see an increase in the reporting of violence and aggressiveness, anger, and arguments to name a few - that is the shadow side of Chiron in Aries. We will also experience, collectively as well as within ourselves, discord when it comes to dealing with power, men in power, our ability/inability to constructively express ourselves from an empowered place, anger towards the self, issues with authority, entrapment and feelings of being unable to escape oppressive situations.
On the other hand, we can choose to do the healing now which will help us to better approach the issues related with the Masculine, with authority, with our ability to stand up for ourselves and others, with the ability to empower ourself and inspire others to do the same for themselves.
If we harness the Chiron in Aries energies positively, we can make significant changes for humanity - no matter how small our step, we will effect change in some way. The way we do this is to tend to what is in need of love, attention and affection in our own life and then take the lessons, knowledge and wisdom and share them with others.
Chiron will remain in Aries until 2026.
19th February:
☉ Sun into ♓ Pisces
The Sun moves into watery, emotional Pisces bringing the opportunity to focus on the emotional debris that we’re still feeling as Chiron transitions from Pisces to Aries. Again, this time is potent for healing, so if you’re struggling with anything, find yourself some support and make shift happen!
This next solar month (until 21 March) will be shining a light on the emotions that we keep hidden beneath the surface - Pisces likes to dwell in the murky shadows of our emotions (and past hurts), at times to its detriment as it can begin feeling like a victim and martyr without even realising that it’s happened - remain vigilant of any spiraling thoughts and use the tools and resources you have at your disposal to dissolve and unravel the energetic debris of this Piscean tendency. Reach out and get support - or offer support if you see that someone is struggling.
We can harness these Piscean energies to indulge the imagination - not too much though as we don’t want to lose touch with reality, but we can dream, we can imagine the WHAT IFS of the situations and circumstances that we wish to find ourselves in, and we can tap into the nurturing elements of Pisces to weave our dreams, visions and goals together from a heart-centred space.

March
XV THE DEVIL & VI THE LOVERS
March is the month for acknowledging, releasing, healing and transforming our relationship - with Self and others.
This month we will be shown - whether we like it or not - how we are standing in our own way and how we are keeping ourselves stuck so prepare for some discomfort. Addictions of any kind are brought to our attention and so too is the reminder that we have the choice and the ability to decide what we want to do and how we want to move forward in our life.
There may very well be draining relationships that have reached their expiry date as well as partnerships of any kind. On a more personal level, I’m being shown that we’re getting sick of the stories that we tell ourselves, we are finally beginning to see that these stories are simply energetic clutter and that all they are doing is getting in the way of our ability to fulfill our potential.
We are beginning to SENSE that there’s more for us - possibly even more than we dare to imagine, nevertheless, we can sense it now. This is acting like a beacon, calling us Home - bringing us into alignment with our Truth and our Essence, so that we can begin to step up and into our life to shine our light and to help others in whatever way we are called to be of Service.
The potential for healing is strong this month - will you choose to do the work that will lead to your healing? Will you step up and claim what is yours? Are you ready to say enough is enough?
Themes:
Attachments - physical, emotional, intellectual; breaking free; relationship upheaval; relationship harmony; emotional healing; temptation; addiction; unhealthy pattern and habit identification and healing; past life healing; acknowledgement of past/current life themes and energies; Archangel Raphael; balance; healing the discord; heart healing; future path awareness; potential and possibility.
Major Celestial Movements for March...
2nd March
♀ Venus into ♒ Aquarius
When Venus moves into Aquarius at the beginning of the month we find ourselves more open to finding new ways of approaching our relationships and partnerships. The energies highlight what we are energetically contributing to each relationship/partnership - the positive and the less positive, helping us to see how we may need to change our approach. It seems that the time for accountability has come and we are preparing to step up and initiate the change ourselves.
We are more aware of our responsibility to Self and the need to make shift happen - for our Self. We no longer wait for others to initiate the changes that we need to make - this requires some detachment from the energetic charge (eg. blame, shame, guilt, etc.) from the situation, and whilst we may ruffle some feathers to begin with, as long as we are making the changes from a heart-centred space, those who matter will come around in time; and for those who don't, well, by then you'll be so far down the road that it just won't matter.
Venus remains in Aquarius until 26 March 2019.
6th March
♅ Uranus into ♉ Taurus
Uranus, the planet of unpredictability, inspiration and revelation moves into steady and dependable Taurus, bringing us the insights and the missing pieces of the puzzle so that we can finally put the finishing touches on our current, and even long-term projects.
Taurus supports detailed work, helping us to plan the first or next - stage of the task or project at hand. It has an objective perspective that enables us to get focused and do the work that needs to be done, so if you find yourself making immense progress, you can thank Taurus for that and know that you are creating something that somehow lends itself to the legacy that you're creating for yourself - even if what you're currently working on is no longer a part of the work you do further down the track, it is a crucial component to the foundation of your future work.
Allow Uranus to provide the insights and inspiration that you need to either get started or to infuse new energy into whatever it is that you're working on, and go with the flow - you never know where you might end up!
Uranus remains in Taurus until July 2025.
☿ Mercury rx (retrograde) in ♓ Pisces
Mercury begins his three week retrograde journey through Pisces today. Mercury is a trickster and he is misunderstood - always being blamed for electrical and technological mishaps, miscommunication and disrupted travel plans - maybe it's his way of getting us to lighten up or be more present.
In my work with Mercury, I've learned that when he takes his retrograde journey at least three times a year, the level of discord and dis-ease that people experience is dependent upon their unwillingness to adapt and to see things from a different perspective. He comes to shake things up, to get us out of old habits and patterns, helping us to release - or in the very least, to identify - what is no longer working, so that we can open ourselves up to the new that's attempting to make its way into our life.
So the next time you're ready to blame Mercury for the discord in your relationships or communication, take a moment to see what your contribution is, and see if you can approach the situation from a different perspective.
Mercury isn't out to get you - he wants you to align with your Highest Good so that you can do what you've come here to do, and when you don't listen, then he has to step in and shake things up. Use this three week period to really understand the underlying energies of the things that 'always seem to go wrong' so that once he's moving forwards again, you can begin to really make shift happen.
Mercury turns direct on 29 March 2019.
Mercury shadow period: 20 February - 17 April 2019.
☿ I’ve created a Mercury Essence to assist with the Mercury retrograde and all things Mercury, if this sounds like something you need, you can get your Mercury Essence here.

☉ Sun into ♈ Aries & 🍂 Autumnal Equinox in the Southern Hemisphere
The Sun moves into Aries today, ushering in the new energies that will really help us to move forward with our dreams and goals.
Aries is the first sign of the zodiac, so if you've been putting off your intention or goal setting for the year, now's the perfect time to do it as the energies are super supportive.
Tap into the fiery Aries energy to reignite your passion in your life. Get clear on your dreams and what it will take to reach, or even exceed them, take the necessary steps, and watch your life shift. Allow your masculine energy and qualities of determination, motivation, assertiveness and drive to get you to your dream/goal faster by laying a strong and sturdy foundation NOW whilst these energies are at their peak.
Others may be assertive, stubborn or even aggressive - make sure you're present in your interactions so that you can make clear and heart-centred decisions when they 'lose the plot'. When interactions go south, make sure that you choose to respond rather than react.You will be tested, you will be pushed, but it's up to you how you respond to what's going on around you. You are responsible for YOU and they are responsible for themselves - don't take on another's burdens if they're not yours to carry. Do not deny someone their learning but attempting to take their struggle from them.
Today is also the Autumnal Equinox in the Southern Hemisphere - the nights grow longer and we begin to prepare for the cooler weather.
💚 If you missed setting your intentions for 2019 in January, and then you missed doing again at the beginning of the lunar new year, now's the beginning of the solar year, so what are you waiting for??
There's too much of 2019 left to play it by ear…
Clear out the old energies and welcome in the new with this FREE Conscious Reflection Inner Work eJournal that I’ve created for you.
27th March
♀ Venus into ♓ Pisces
When Venus moves into Pisces we can expect to come face to face with unresolved emotions from our relationships - with Self and others - and any partnerships that we are a part of. If we've done the work that was asked of us when Venus moved into Aquarius at the beginning of the month, we'll be much better placed to handle what surfaces.
When we've done the intellectual processing and emotional detaching from the Venus in Aquarius energies, moving into the watery and dark depths of the emotions in Pisces will be somewhat easier to navigate - not 'easy', because anything in a water sign always brings immense discomfort, but a sense of understanding that this is simply part of the healing process, and it is this mindset that will make navigating these energies just that little bit more manageable.
Venus remains in Pisces until late April.

☿ Mercury direct in ♓ Pisces
Mercury finishes his three-week retrograde journey today. He will remain in the retrograde shadow until the April 17 which means that some may continue to experience the discomfort of the retrograde period for just that little bit longer.
My advice: get to work on what's coming up for you NOW - the sooner you tend to it, the sooner the energetic charge of the situation will begin to dissipate, leaving you to move into the next few months with a greater sense of ease and purpose.
31st March
♂ Mars into ♊ Gemini
As Mars moves into Gemini we may very well find ourselves feeling frustrated with our attempts to make progress with whatever it is that we've been working on. It's not that we haven't made progress, it's more that we're so fixed on our perspective of the way things are, that we're not allowing for the potential of what things could be and the energy stagnates. Read that again.
If and when we channel our passion and drive into something that's important to us, we feel quite protective of our work; even more so when someone offers unsolicited advice or has a simpler or more effective way of making this dream/goal a reality. Watch out for misunderstandings , allow others to voice their suggestions, just as you'd like for others to hear yours, and know that if you pool your resources you'll end up with a better outcome than if you keep doing the same thing over and over again, hoping to get a different result - I believe Einstein classified that as the definition of insanity.
Harness the Mars in Gemini energies positively and you'll find inspiration for things that are yet to be invented - this energy is about forward movement, the creation of things that are not yet a reality. If you consider yourself a visionary, you'll be immensely supported by these energies.
Mars remains in Gemini until mid-May 2019.

NEW FORMAT

This month I’m being guided to do something different with the monthly blog and I’m excited about it, because it’s how I work with the Lunar Cycle - from New Moon to New Moon.
To begin with it might feel a little unnatural because we’re so used to the linear way of things, but allow yourself to be curious about this - it is after all, our natural state as women - to find the cycles within and around us in order to harness them, honour our own energy and cycles and begin to accept and empower ourselves at each stage and phase of the cycle.
Starting this month, we’ll be looking at the lunar month ahead rather than the calendar month - I will still include the Tarot Numerology energies for each month as each month does still have it’s own energetic flavour and it’s important to honour that.
Without further ado…
Aries Lunar Month: 5 April - 4 May
April
XVI THE TOWER & VII THE CHARIOT
April is the month for inspiration that brings about almost instantaneous shifts...if we apply that inspiration and take guided steps towards creating that which we’ve been dreaming about and envisioning.
The energies of these two cards bring an abundance of blessings to and for those who are ready to step out of their own way and begin to master their life.
Hopefully by now, and especially with the assistance of Mercury retrograde last month, we’ve been making any adjustments, refinements and even scrapping anything that is no longer in alignment with our Soul’s Purpose so that we can get really clear on what it is that fuels us so that we can step up and into the world in all of our glorious magnificence and splendour.
If not, then The Tower is here to remind you to initiate the changes before they’re thrust upon you. I don’t know about you, but that would be warning enough! Whatever is NOT in alignment with your Soul’s Purpose will be cleared away for you and it won’t be pretty - take the initiative whilst you still have the chance and reduce the fallout.
The Chariot shows us what can happen when we begin to harness the energy of the cosmos and our Soul - no reins are needed - look at the charioteer’s hands. When we begin to see that life is happening for us, not to us, we see magic all around us. We begin to tap into the Universal energies that support us - knowing that control is but a word that keeps us stuck and trapped.
Our perspective of ourselves, the world and others takes on a whole new meaning as we no longer see things as black and white - we recognise on a soul-level that there are many and varying shades of grey too. We begin to call forth, create and claim more harmony in our life and this in and of itself brings and activates more healing energy within and to us.
Themes:
Initiating change; inspiration; blessings in disguise; false/unstable structures WILL give way; pay attention to who it is that you follow - are they acting with integrity? Are they authentic?; trust your instincts about people; self-mastery; taking charge of one’s life; cosmic alignments; Universal support; out with the old, in with the new; harmony; finding and walking the middle way; honour thy Self; starting over; new beginnings; restructuring one’s life/business.

♃rx Jupiter retrograde in ♐ Sagittarius
Jupiter, planet of expansion, growth, luck and joy begins his retrograde cycle this month. He slows down and helps us to look at the areas of our life that are stagnant, causing discord and dis-ease and no longer providing joy.
So often we get caught up in the day-to-day running of our lives that we don’t even realise that we’ve gone off track, lost the spark, passion and drive, and we no longer feel aligned with much, let alone the things that bring us joy and happiness - if we can even articulate what they are. For many of us, we’ve lost touch with Self and that is a heartbreaking thing to acknowledge, but it’s also a beautiful gift to receive, because we can then begin to find our way back to wholeness.
During his retrograde cycle, Jupiter extends an invitation to delve into the parts of Self that are calling for more excitement, more love, more passion, more joy, more growth and he even encourages us to begin to introduce those things into our life and to create a legacy for ourselves that will live on through those around us who are inspired by our Self-love and dedication to regular infusions of love and joy into our life - it has a ripple effect that will impact many.
Travel is possible for those who are ready to explore beyond their own boundaries - be open to unusual or unexpected surprises and offers. Study and learning feature strongly during Jupiter’s celestial movements.
Jupiter will remain in his retrograde cycle until 11 August 2019.
13 April
🌓 1st Quarter Moon in ♋ Cancer
This energy reading will up on the BLOG closer to the date.
17 April
☿rx Mercury retrograde shadow ends
Mercury ended his retrograde cycle back on 29 March, but has remained in the shadow of that cycle until now, injecting fun into our communications - have you noticed that your autocorrect has been in full force over the last few weeks?
Hopefully you’ve been in a good ‘space’ to see the humour in things, and haven’t been taking yourself too seriously. When we take ourselves too seriously, we miss the meaning of life which is to be present and in the flow of peace and joy and this can wreak havoc in our life as we spiral into depression, anxiety and anything that is not our Divine expression of Love.
☿ Mercury into ♈ Aries
Mercury, planet of communication, intellect, mental agility and travel moves into Aries, bringing with him the potential for flare ups and misunderstandings. His trickster nature doesn’t blend particularly well with the Aries seriousness and air of self-interest - so be warned that egos may be bruised at this time.
Mercury wants us to inject some humour into our life, and when we don’t, he does it for us by introducing some lightheartedness into our day. He means no harm, but our fragile human ego can take things out of proportion so if you find yourself triggered by something this month, delve beneath the surface to find just what it is that ticks you off or has you on edge.
Mercury remains in Aries until 6 May.
19 April
🌕 Full Moon in ♎ Libra
This energy reading will up on the BLOG closer to the date.
20 April
☉ Sun into ♉ Taurus
The Sun moves into practical, dependable, reliable, abundant Taurus, ushering those of us in the Southern Hemisphere just that little bit deeper into Autumn and the heady aromas and crisp mornings of this beautiful time of the year.
We begin to feel drawn inwards, but we still have ample energy to tend to the things that need our attention before Winter sets in. Yes, there’s a sense of urgency you could say, as we begin to get a good feel for what’s in need of our attention and what needs to be completed or placed aside for the time being - remember everything has its own cycle.
21 April
♀ Venus into ♈ Aries
Venus, planet of love, harmony, love and abundance moves into Aries which might cause some inner - and outer - friction for many.
As women we are taught that it’s ‘not nice’ to be assertive or to speak our mind, but with Venus/Aries energy, this is what it’s all about. As we continue to delve more deeply into the awakening of the Feminine - given that we harness the energies positively, we WILL ruffle feathers, it’s just the way it is when the status quo is questioned.
My advice is to remain heart-centred at all times, to act in the highest and greatest good of all, and to know when it’s time to take a step back. Taking a step back is not defeat, it’s about reading the audience/crowd and knowing when to preserve and if necessary, redirect our energy.
The Feminine is about receptivity, grace, flow, heart-centred power and even tapping into our anger, hurt and pain to effect change in the world - not to contribute to it.
22 - 23 April

25 April
♇rx Pluto retrograde in ♑ Capricorn
Pluto, planet of transformation, passion, and the cycle of death-rebirth begins his retrograde cycle in Capricorn, bringing the potential for deep healing and transformation in the areas of our life that have us dealing with and interacting with others.
There’s a need for a shift in the way in which we do this - the old ways no longer work and they’re barely holding ground as everything around us is shifting and changing much more quickly than we could have anticipated.
What lies on the other side of this retrograde will be interesting for sure - but for now, we have the opportunity to look at the way in which we run our day-to-day life and make any necessary changes and improvements, including shedding what no longer works or serves us or the collective.
Pluto will remain in his retrograde cycle until 3 October 2019.
27 April
🌗 3rd Quarter Moon in ♒ Aquarius
This energy reading will up on the BLOG closer to the date.
30 April
♄rx Saturn retrograde in ♑ Capricorn
Saturn begins his retrograde cycle in his home sign of Capricorn, bringing the opportunity to see where in our life we feel restricted, limited and lacking the necessary resources. skills and abilities that we’ll need if we’re going to make progress in the area of our Soul’s Purpose - this won’t be new to you, you’ve been feeling the urge to break free for a while, and now you have your chance to do something about it.
We now have the opportunity to get clear on what it is that we love to do, what we do well, and to bring them together in a beautiful and cohesive way so that we can improve not only our life, but the life of others who are ready to begin working with us.
Saturn will remain in his retrograde cycle until 18 September 2019.
May
XVII THE STAR & VIII STRENGTH
May is the month when it all starts falling into place - we’ve released what was no longer working and had ceased serving any function in our life apart from keeping us stuck. We delved deep and found the places within that were in need of our love, attention and affection and this commenced the healing process.
Healing is not something that is done by another or from some external force or energy source - healing is what happens when we make the decision to start looking at ourselves from a loving and holistic perspective; accepting or in the very least acknowledging, that we are what we are and that our perception of what this is changes depending upon our current mindset and perspective of our current reality. Once we can see that we are constantly evolving, then that releases us from the burden of limitation and restriction, and this invites more Divine energy into and through our life.
This month we have the opportunity to delve deeper into our personal consciousness, tuning into the Divine parts of Self so that we can begin to bring more of our Spiritual Essence into this human and physical reality.
We will see how our actions, as well as those of others, impact the world - we begin to see, not only sense just how powerful a well intentioned and heartfelt word, glance or touch can effect a positive energetic exchange upon another.
We begin to receive more and more support from the Universe - not because we’re ‘finally’ doing something right, but because we’ve finally started to believe in ourselves and in the possibility that there’s enough for everyone. As we align more and more with this mindset and energy, we begin to release the old paradigms and programs and we begin to open ourselves up energetically to the abundance of the Universe.
There’s an immense inner shift that’s taking place for humanity right now, and if you’re reading this, I believe that you’re one of the ones who are here to support and direct this shift, so...keep doing the inner work, keep facing those shadows, keep aligning with your heart and know that with courage all things are possible.
There’s more strength and courage in vulnerability than you know, so keep showing up as the best version of yourself, acknowledge - at least to yourself - that there are times when you just don’t know what you’re doing, but that you’re willing to trust, surrender and be present in it all, and you will be provided for.
Themes:
Vulnerability; consciousness; subconscious awareness; dreams and visions; dreamwork; wishes fulfilled; Truth; courage; strength; wisdom; grace; ease; flow; support from Spirit; inner light; Presence; Universal Laws; receptivity; giving and receiving; progress; faith.
