Retrograde Planets – Pallas, Pluto
The Sun
- 12th House/Taurus
- Sunday influences: 1; Laguz, Conjunctio; Human Design Gate/Line 24.2 Recognition; Moon Phase: Waning, Disseminating
The Sun’s influence impacts an individual’s identity, vitality, and ego expression. You’re likely to manage your self-care in a solitary manner during this time. Your daily routine over the week may involve yoga, meditation, or working alone in the garden. However, when May begins, you may feel somewhat off balance and need to rely on your intuition when asserting yourself. It could be that your emotions are at odds with your will and, if so, conveying your message may be challenging. At the end of the week, take time for yourself to refresh and recharge.
Sunday, 28 April 2024
Take time today, particularly if you’re empathic, to visualize any energetic channels you’ve created dissolve and then draw your energy back to you. In this way, you can also free yourself from any energies that belong to others that have attached to your awareness. If you’ve been hesitant to collaborate with others, visualize that process as successful so that you can embrace it instead of resisting it.
The Moon
- Various signs and houses: (7th/Capricorn 4/28; 8th/Capricorn 4/29; 9th/Capricorn 4/30; 9th/Aquarius 5/2; 10th/Aquarius 5/2, 10th/Pisces 5/3, 11th/Pisces 5/4)
- Monday Influences: 11, Othala, Via; Human Design Gate/Line 54.2 Discretion; Moon Phase: Waning, Disseminating
The Moon’s interaction with the various signs throughout the week impacts an individual’s emotions, moods, and vulnerabilities. At the beginning of the week, you need a partner who is reliable and steadfast as you look for a new career opportunity that brings increased emotional satisfaction. Although you’re empathically aware of the energies that move through your experiences, your emotions may impact your self-expression potentially leading to mood swings or a lack of control. Taking time to ground and center is essential during this time.
A relationship with a partner may be challenging as the week continues; however, this could be an outlier, and letting the situation settle before responding may be appropriate. That said, while you are ready to pursue new experiences, your partner may not be ready to do so.
During the latter part of the week, although you may still feel emotionally off-balance, you seek recognition for your skills and achievements. You also explore your spirituality during this time that you share with others on the same or similar path. On Saturday, it seems like the universe is telling you to retreat to escape the chaos that surrounds you.
Monday, 29 April 2024
Today’s Master 11 numerology suggests awakening to a new spiritual truth. You’re letting go of beliefs that no longer resonate and you now realize that compromise in a relationship can be a positive force that leads to greater harmony and peace.
Mars
- 11th House/Pisces; 11th/Aries (Dignity/Ruler) 4/30-5/4
- Tuesday’s Influences: 3, Perthro, Carcer; Human Design Gate/Line 25.2 The existentialist; Moon Phase: Waning, Disseminating
Mars invokes action, courage, passion, and strength in an individual. While Mars is still in Pisces at the beginning of the week, you’re supportive of friends and family and are willing to sacrifice your own needs to keep the peace. However, as Mars travels into Aries, the sign’s ruler, your confidence returns and you’re quite comfortable directly asserting yourself to others. However, as your motivation increases, a collaborative approach will serve you better than trying to control the narrative.
Tuesday, 30 April 2024
As you assert your perspective today, be mindful to also leave room for the views of others. Avoid taking risks that others are hesitant to support, and make every attempt to understand the overall picture before proceeding.
Mercury
- 11th House/Aries
- Wednesday’s Influences: 1, Kenaz, Amissio, Human Design Gate/Line 51.3 Adaptation; Moon Phase: Waning, 3rd Qtr 11°Aq34, 4:28a
Mercury influences an individual’s communication style, thought processes, and how one negotiates or transacts with others. You may receive news involving a potential career change this week either in the education field or possibly involving additional training you might need. If not, then you may be approached by co-workers who appreciate your input or perspective.
Difficult memories may surface throughout the week resulting in a lack of emotional balance. Remaining flexible may be challenging which may increase during the latter part of the week. Although the memories may leave you upset, realize that they also provide the space for healing old wounds.
Wednesday, 1 May 2024, Beltane
Light the bonfire for today is Beltane! The Sun has returned and the summer growing season has begun! Unless you live where I do and then it’s sketchy at best. That said, prepare a feast, dance around the Maypole, decorate your home with flowers, and enjoy the day!
Aside from Beltane, stay focused and aware of new opportunities that come your way today that are perfect for your unique perspective and talents. Although you may be hesitant to take risks or need something reliable, a new path could open that transforms your life.
Jupiter
- 12th/Taurus
- Thursday’s Influences: 2; Tiwaz, Via; Human Design Gate/Line 8.1 Honesty; Moon Phase: Waning, 3rd Qtr
Jupiter is the planet of expansion and influences an individual’s growth, luck, abundance, and self-confidence. As you continue to explore the path to increased abundance and material security, you also need to weigh the risks when pursuing new opportunities. Reaching out to others with more experience to gain additional information may be appropriate. However, if you’re unwilling to do that, you may sabotage your ability to make the best choice possible. During the latter part of the week, you may need to strike a more realistic balance between home and your career.
Thursday, 2 May 2024
You may have reached an impasse over a challenging situation today. Although your choices surrounding the problem may be limited, have faith that assistance from others is available and their input may provide the solution you’re looking for.
Venus
- 12th House/Aries (Detriment); 11th/Taurus (Dignity/Ruler) 4/29-5/4
- Friday’s Influences: 3; Wunjo, Populus; Human Design Gate/Line 27.4 Generosity; Moon Phase: Waning, Full
Venus, the planet of attraction, happiness, harmony, and beauty, reflects the feminine aspect within and how an individual loves and expresses intimacy and self-worth. As Venus enters Taurus on Monday, you’re drawn to friends who are reliable and steady. You’re examining your existing relationships and setting more realistic boundaries which may benefit you at the beginning of the week if expressing your needs becomes challenging. That said, a misunderstanding may cause you to become overly critical of a co-worker, friend, or family member toward the end of the week.
Friday, 3 May 2024
Clear up any misunderstandings that might have happened between you and a partner to preserve peace and harmony. You may have jumped to a conclusion before knowing all the facts, and the relationship you’ve cultivated is more important than insisting you’re right. Apologize, and move on.
Saturn
- 10th House/Pisces
- Saturday’s Influences: 4; Othala, Via; Human Design Gate/Line 63.6 Nostalgia; Moon Phase: Waning, Full
The planet Saturn slows things down, invoking realism, boundaries, restraint, and the impact of time on an individual. Over the week, fear over how you’re perceived by co-workers continues to impact how you express yourself. Instead of viewing a different perspective by a co-worker neutrally, for example, you could sabotage future interactions by taking the situation personally and giving it more meaning than it has. If that happens, you could emotionally isolate yourself from others when collaboration could bring you more success.
Saturday, 4 May 2024
Through hard work and a pragmatic, diligent approach, you’re able to move forward on a project today. Although you struggle with insecurities that impact interactions with others, you also understand how collaboration can help you succeed. Focus on what’s in front of you and don’t allow worry to prevent your progress.
