Conscious Musings - April

Waiting to Exhale

Are you ready to change?

As I write this Muse, the energetic fields are lit up with anger, concern and worry. The final degrees of Neptune are dropping all illusions and more and more truths are being revealed on political intentions via displayed actions. I am also reading more articles on the real story behind COVI*-19 and how many countries understood what really happened and who has actually been financing the research on animal & human viruses - causing them to become more difficult for the human body to process, not to mention long lasting conditions that are not normally seen from catching a virus.

The immune system is ruled by Neptune and with Neptune’s change into Aries, it is time to take control of your body and start listening to the signals it gives you . In this country , there is still a belief that the medical community and big Pharma know best. With the Nodes in positions of Virgo and Pisces for the next 18 months, expect more illumination on what real healing can begin to look like. Healing is an act of caring and giving our bodies a chance to heal themselves not mask symptoms with possible side effects. It is truly a body, mind and spirit process. With Virgo ruling the 6th house of health and diet, we sincerely need to review our diets, the source of our food, how it is raised and marketed. Most of all , remember the mantra, first do no harm.

The nodal placements throughout 2025 will ask for attention to balance discernment and attention to detail ( Virgo) with illusion and deception ( Pisces). These are both signs in the zodiac that can be prone to worry, fear and victimhood. Sometimes we need to get scammed in order to wake up and “smell the coffee”. The bold placements in Aries this month begin with a cry of “ Hell , no! “. Aries wants bold action to put YOU in charge and not giving your finances, health, employment and dreams to some elected official or other authority figure. Let the games begin with these weekly energetic changes.

  • Mercury goes direct 4/7 at 26 degrees Pisces, then rolls into Aries on 4/16. Our mental input has quietly been processing the blast of information coming at us and look for more direct speech, arguments, and confrontation by mid-month. We have been a bit hurt and wounded by the dissolving of norms many of us expect. Time to assert ourselves, defend our rights and expect better.

  • Mars is wrapping up its sleepy, feeling tour in Cancer and will roll into Leo on 4/18. Time to let your emotions roar, with a cry of “what about me?” Our feelings of security have been shaken to the core and the sign of Leo will get us ready to create opportunities and put ourselves first. Leo also trines and blends well with all the Aries energy of the Sun, Mercury and Neptune, then Venus starting in May.

  • Venus will also go direct on 4/13 at 24 degrees of Pisces and then enter Aries. I hope you have done your homework and figured out what you no longer need in your life around outworn values, spending vs. earning, and your self-esteem. American culture has been awash in consumerism and it no longer feeds our planet or our souls. The fire and air energies coming up in 2025 will give us more impetus to start something new that requires action. Move forward with passion and a bit of risk taking in getting your needs met.

  • Enter Neptune at zero degrees of Aries - the nebulous, creative energy comes alive as well as a swell of consciousness that empowers more and more souls. Invention and belief come together - victimhood will diminish and fighting for our dreams & visions becomes the norm. This is a long term transit , meaning about the next 14 years , so keep this energy as a backburner and know how it tracks in your natal chart!

  • April 25 - the cluster of 6 planets and North Node verses the fixed T-square of male power. See the chart noted below as the consequential meeting of release, new beginnings and some power brokers last hurrah! The evolved energies will no longer be able to sustain self-centered leadership, but become pushed to embrace community. Several planets are in end degrees of Pisces, followed by the Moon and Venus close to Neptune at zero degrees of Aries - the sign of leaders. The T-square aspect noted below in red - Mars , the Sun and finally Pluto are in a fixed sign tension. These planets are playing out the last time Mars will oppose Pluto this year. This aspect portends anger, ego and possible violence. Not auspicious.

  • In non- astrology speak, this can mean an extreme point of tension to the US leader from open enemies and other power disputes. Jupiter having gone direct has also returned to its placement at election date 2024 - 20 degrees of Gemini. While lucky in some cases, it seems that all legal issues that have occurred since election day may come to some sort of resolution as well. Jupiter also rules foreign countries where the USA is rapidly making more enemies.

Take Your Body Back and the Path Forward

In earlier newsletters , the Muse has mentioned changes in consciousness as Neptune in Pisces comes to a close. As the frequencies vibrate higher, our bodies are also expected to grow and heal. Expect purging of toxins and tensions held in our bodies , aching to be released. This is why I mention changing tactics on true healing . Our obsession with a bloated medical system approved and co-opted by insurance companies does not ring true. Why on earth would we need media ads on the latest big Pharm products? It feels coercive and highly controlled. Explore paths such as functional medicine, energy/body work and herbal products. Wisdom in many of these fields has been around for thousands of years and work with nature. Did you know that many pharmacy products are derived from nature? Good news - you cannot patent an herb tincture or any product from nature , so its use cannot be regulated. Do see a Naturopath or herbal professional if you plan to explore their use!

The human body is designed to heal itself if we allow it to do so. Fasting when ill, even serious diseases has shown to prove amazing results. As to cost , most insurance companies will not cover these “ alternative “ modalities. This is where take your body back comes into play. Only you can decide what you value more, but good health is achievable given proper diet, emotional balance and spiritual connection.

Alas, I am not a physician, but I have used many of these techniques and find myself in good health at most times. It is also a joy not to deal with insurance as well. I recently heard a discussion with Chris Wark and Dr. Richard Schulze, herbalist. His testimonies on healing his patients are impressive, especially extreme cancer patients. Please take 60 minutes to listen to his interview with Chris, also healed from cancer - largely through diet. Dr. Schulze is a straight shooter and does insist that his patients be willing to change.

In closing, we live in times of extreme turbulence and it takes its toll on our psyche. Do your best to absorb positive and uplifting material. There are many authors, scientists and entrepreneurs offering solutions to our most pressing issues , such as housing, food production and clean water - but again it will require a reset in our thinking and behavior. Most of all this month , honor our unique and beautiful planet on Earth Day , April 22. Recycle , consume less, eat lighter, then kick off your shoes and walk upon the Earth with gratitude!
