Sun and Rising Sign Horoscopes for April 2024

Hi, everyone. This is Adam Elenbaas from Nightlight Astrology. Today, I am joined by my colleague Alex Amorosi to break down your horoscopes for the month of April. So, we are going to be looking at two major transits. This month, we're going to be looking at the Aries solar eclipse, which is happening on April 8. And then we're going to be taking a look at the Jupiter-Uranus conjunction on April 28, which is happening in Taurus. So we're going to be looking at those two whole sign houses for all 12 signs; you can listen to this, of course, for your son or your rising sign; we recommend your rising sign, which will correspond with the whole sign house version of your birth chart.

So before we get to that, I want to promote a couple of things that we have going on. And before I even do that, don't forget, as always, to like and subscribe.

I did an interview with her that I've been posting at the end of the episodes recently so that you can learn more about that program that's coming up at the end of April. All right. On that note, I am really excited to have Alex back for April's horoscopes. Alex, Welcome back.

Alex Amorosi
I was gonna say one of the biggest months of the year, I think astrologically it's just there's a lot of punctuation marks in this month.

Adam Elenbaas
A solar eclipse in Aries and the Jupiter Uranus conjunction and Taurus major. Yeah, I mean, every month when I'm doing the Kickstarter video, which you did with me this year, we look at the biggest transits for the year ahead. And without a doubt, April was like okay, wow, we've got, you know, this major stellium in Aries with the solar Eclipse while Mercury's retrograde and then shortly after we have a Jupiter Uranus conjunction within like 12 days, so that was my biggest month of the year. I know it was yours, too. So I think most astrologers are looking at this as probably, I mean, there's maybe the Jupiter-Saturn squares in August and December, but they don't have as many things going on around them as we do here with an eclipse and Jupiter Uranus together.

Alex Amorosi
I agree. There are so many tied-together relationships this month. And so with that solar Eclipse, there's so much going on inside of it, and even just while it's happening, there's so much going on around it. Saturn and Mars are coming into conjunction with Jupiter and Uranus into a conjunction. Jupiter is hosting Saturn and Mars. There's a whole rabbit hole you can go down with all the interrelated facets of that Eclipse, too. Yeah,

Adam Elenbaas
yeah, absolutely. Yeah. So I mean, one thing that I thought we would do is just show everybody the timeline and some of the other features around the Eclipse and the Jupiter-Uranus conjunction, and then we'll break it down side by side and see what we've got going on. So this is the actual April 8. So here you can see that we've got a north node, a North Node Solar Eclipse, and Aries. Some of the things that stand out to me about this. In addition to the fact that Mars, the ruler, is conjoining Saturn in Pisces, this is a very Cardinal moment.

You know, in ancient Greek astrology, it was called Tropical, which came from the word troppo switch, which meant like a turning point, a very powerful turning point; it's got that feeling of initiation and the punctuating, acting starting qualities of Aries, let's start something new. That's every solar Eclipse, that's every new moon. But when it's an Aries like this, you've got a Mercury Retrograde in Aries. Venus is an Aries. It's a north node Eclipse, which also tends to augment our desires for something new. And then Mars and Saturn are coming together; you get the feeling that effort, discipline, willpower, and the execution of a plan or a vision with a lot of strength behind it is going to be a part of this Eclipse, but what are your impressions of it? Just looking at it?

Alex Amorosi
Well, will you be okay if I say the word Chiron, Adam, will be okay?

Adam Elenbaas
I'll give you a pass.

Alex Amorosi
You know, I use Chiron, but he doesn't, but this Eclipse is also directly related to the minute conjunct Chiron. So I just wanted to bring up this: this is very powerfully involved in this Eclipse. There's something about, you know, if I look at this from my sort of energy, healing energy, energy work background, this would strike me as a moment where there's something significant that can be healed by really approaching something in a grown-up disciplined manner. And that can move you forward in the inception of a very powerful new cycle, something totally brand new. And there's always the possibility, I think, with Aries and particularly when the North Node is involved in Aries, to go too far, one step too far. And really, I think, this month, I think I think Saturn and Mars, you know, the more you look at that in pi in a water sign, Saturn is putting the brakes with Mars a little bit.

There's a sense here where it may feel like you just want to launch the rocket ship. But you definitely need to double-check your chest checklist. Saturn will provide a little bit of that break there where it's like, you know, the North Node sometimes can really feel you can get hopped up on the North Node in a fire sign and being pulled towards like yes is the this is the thing that is going to help and save me forevermore. But I think Saturn there does provide a good just a good pause; let's double check this because this is a huge lineup of points that are thank you I'm you prepared an awesome huge lineup of points in Mars a sign and the first sign of the zodiac, which is just known for its sort of rocket ship quality.

Adam Elenbaas
I mean, look, look, I just, you know, me, I'm someone who just doesn't like people cluttering up charts. But I should care more about Chiron because it's on my ascendant within a degree. So, um, you know, it's something that is like an archetype that I haven't taken the time to learn. But I know enough about Chiron. I've read several books about Chiron, read the mythology of Chiron, etc. So, um, I am familiar. It does strike me as, like when you have a solar eclipse on Chiron, one of the things I could imagine would be that we're incentivized somehow within ourselves to do something that constitutes an act of healing and an act of self-healing an act of individuation for the sake of becoming wiser, more whole somehow. I mean, that seems fair for Chiron on the Eclipse, right?

Alex Amorosi
Yeah, absolutely. And, you know, I read a few months ago, the Song of Achilles by Madeline Miller; it's a beautiful story that tells us the story of the Iliad from Petra's closest perspective. Chiron factors majorly into that, and you know, it is the time Achilles spends learning from him. And I think it really brings up a wonderful archetype, almost like a Jupiter-type archetype, like if you are with Chiron in a way that you allow the wound to fuel a sense of wanting to heal and help. Chiron brings a sense of disseminating and teaching what we've learned but the sort of the kind of like the, you know, the older mentor Yoda type figure like there's, there's a sort of I've been through a lot of hard stuff. I've seen it all, and this is what I've learned and what I had to learn in that process, and now I'm desiring to share it, and now I'm desiring to give it in some way. And usually, you know, I just notice when the sun and the moon are actually when the sun is actually Eclipse there to the minute 1924 Aries conjunct, so it's interesting it really is a punctuation mark I see on this Eclipse as well. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Adam Elenbaas
Um, well, I think the second thing that's happening that everyone is well aware of is we have on the April Oops, my by ours. Let's scoot this back. Let's move this forward to April 20. And I'll actually put Taurus on the ascendant there. Here's the Jupiter Uranus conjunction. And this is happening just 12 days later. So they're pretty closely connected to one another. They have very different agendas on an archetypal level, in a sense, but there's no reason they really can't be related to one another as well. If you think about the Jupiter-Uranus conjunction in terms of Jupiter's emphasis on growth, expansion, fertility, and cohesion, like granting a more meaningful or wiser,, or richer or more expansive kind of life, then in Taurus, it's doing so for the sake of things like pleasure, embodiment, sensuality, a kind of stable, peaceful, enjoyable state of being.

And then you add in Uranus, and Uranus wants to do so fast, rapidly through eccentric thinking or progressive innovative thinking that takes us outside of the familiar or outside of established habits, traditions, and patterns with a kind of sudden disruptive quality. The two of them together strike me as providing us with the impetus to change the material circumstances around us in some striking ways because we're seeking a more stable, more peaceful, more luxurious kind of earthly existence.

Maybe for some people, that's really going to take them into bodily things that have been taboo or off limits. You know, a lot of us have been taught that the indulgences of Taurus are just wicked; you know, I know you're bad. But there is a shadow, of course, which would be like the impatient, impatient kind of overly indulgent hedonism, like the Minotaur, or something that could get pretty angsty. But I think for most of us, if you consider the preceding Eclipse on Chiron, there's something here that might be moving us toward wholeness and happiness in more embodied ways. And I think that to me, anyway, that's the promise that I see behind Jupiter Uranus, the long side of the Aries Eclipse, but what about you when you add in Jupiter Uranus? Well, what are your thoughts? Alex,

Alex Amorosi
that's beautifully said; I think, you know, it's interesting because I think Uranus is really good for tourists but difficult for Taurus because Taurus usually generally likes, you know, fixed earth; I like things to generally be status quo in the same uncomfortable and that sort of idea. But I think that there's a, there's a sense of Jupiter here of, you know, sometimes what we think the revolutionary freedom, see, you know, freedom bringing act will be is not what it actually is, you know, sometimes I think, you know, we think like Uranus would be like, Okay, I'm just gonna break all the shackles and do something new and go crazy. And I don't. I can't even think of an example right now. But you know, do that sort of thing. And sometimes it's like, maybe the radical idea is just like, you know, something that feels true and comfortable to you.

Something that feels right and good to you and embodied to you know, this cycle began at the very right about where Neptune is right now at the end of Pisces and 2010 2011. And there's something about tying together this, you know, the conclusion of a cycle that began with sort of a much more ethereal, watery emotional quality now, beginning something that feels much more tangible, stable, grounded. And it might be a discernment here of what's practical, which might feel like the revolutionary act is, Oh, for some signs and charts, it might feel like doing something that feels practical, stable, comfortable, or it might feel like you know what, I need to jack my jackhammer myself out of something that has felt really confining something that has felt like it's gotten too stale or too stuck in the mud and somehow needs to be reworked in a way that launches us in a new direction.

Adam Elenbaas
Yeah. Yeah. The idea that Taurus can stagnate sometimes or get stuck, especially stuck in things that are like, well, it's working; if it's not broken, don't fix it. But Jupiter Uranus together and Taurus, maybe like, actually, there are two or three other options that could also work very well, be tangibly better, and work for a long time. So that you know, a cup in a couple of months. You might be saying if it's not broken, don't fix it with something that's significantly better than what you're dealing with right now. Exactly.

So yeah. I love that there's another thing that comes to my mind for Jupiter Uranus, which is alongside Pluto's entrance into Aquarius, which is the creation of space. You know, we talked so much about everything that's luxurious and enjoyable, and you almost get the picture in your head sometimes with Taurus of like a buffet that's just filled with tons of food; it's very opulence beautifully arranged. And you get the feeling of fullness like a cornucopia or something, but Jupiter is in Taurus. The other thing that's worth exploring is that Jupiter, Uranus, and Taurus may also be about kind of creating spaciousness because there's actually, in some ways, nothing more luxurious than spaciousness.

If you think about like, I don't know, if you go, you know, you go on a date to a park, and you spread out a blanket, and it's the middle of a Saturday afternoon, there's nothing you have to make dinners for hours away. You've got dinner on your mind for, you know, an evening plan, but you've got four hours in front of you. And there's a way that you feel that's just so open and stable and comfortable. And I can't help but wonder if some of this is if it's less about what you will get. What will Jupiter Uranus lightning strike into your life that's suddenly like, oh, it's like Christmas?

There are gifts everywhere. There's stuff. But what about the idea of also freeing us from entanglements? If you think about a big pasture that the bowl or the cows are in, it's just easy, and it's open. So I also wonder about there being, especially with Aries who really likes freedom, coming off that Aries eclipse that makes me wonder if, like, are we actually seeking out more space, more freedom, that spaciousness is actually the real luxury.

Alex Amorosi
I love that because, you know, it takes into account the natural quality of Taurus that you know, the Tauruses that I know if you want a strong Taurus in their chart, love being outside, love being in nature, love to garden, love to you know, and I think that there's something about, you know, Uranus sometimes can bring about that feeling of where I have felt restrained.

If I can feel free in the sense that I know I don't have the opulent obligations that I used to have around me, you know, like sometimes when we have too much stuff, it's like that was a big tenant in early Buddhism that I studied, you know, is that when we acquire so much then it all has to be cared for, and there's so much going on, and there's something about like, maybe even a minimal quality to something like this, you know, or it's just like I can do, I can do okay, with less or, you know, I could you know, I'm just thinking about this as my 10th house, but you know, I can work smarter, not harder, harder. Yeah, I can, you know, decorate more minimally, not add on more stuff where I can even clear things out. But I love that take on it. I hadn't considered that. That's a really cool take on that. I love it.

Adam Elenbaas
Yeah, I think that there's just it. There's one thing we can say about Jupiter and Uranus together, which is that there's a good chance that they will surprise us with things we aren't thinking of. And so I've just been trying to get into the mode of like, what am I not thinking of? You know what I mean? But anyway, shall we go into horoscopes? Yeah. All right, let's do it.

Aries
We're gonna start with Aries. And I'll kick us off, and then we'll alternate. So remember, we are looking at two major events. One is the solar Eclipse in Aries on April 8, followed by the Jupiter-Uranus conjunction on the 20th. So what I want to do is pair these two events together for you guys, or Alex and I both will so that you can think about them as connected from house one to two for Aries. You're thinking about themes of individuation, individuality, independence, and the executing of personal plans and agendas with a kind of a sudden spark or kick. There's a strong impetus to assert yourself in some way. If you're an Aries, develop yourself in some way, take a step forward, and start something new. These are all first-house significations. But it's also followed by the Jupiter-Uranus conjunction in your second, which emphasizes a complete shift in resources or values. A shift in how you earn money or, how you handle money or your investments or your expenditures in the skills you're developing or utilizing. As well as what you have around you that facilitates your deepest essence, like what you rely on. And how are the things that are at your disposal changing? Maybe some really nice new things are coming in that can support your personal growth and development, as well as anything involving the cultivation or development of your skills that lead to things like money or assets. So I feel like there's a strong connection here between the themes of individuation in the first house and resources, money, skills, and assets in the second that are connected here.

Alex Amorosi
Yeah, I agree. You know, if I take my take on this from the second house to Jupiter and Uranus right, there's this sense of like, like you're saying like this wild re-discovery of worth value, the things that you hold valuable ways, you know, you could say, low hanging fruit here being a way of making money you never considered before and a lot of money generally with Jupiter. But it's what's interesting and what's and what's interesting to me here is that Jupiter Uranus is basically ruling the ruler of your Eclipse, right, so Saturn and Mars in your in your 12th house. You know, as you go forward on this path, that feels like I have to, you know, rocketship, which is the word I'm really using for Aries today to some new identity, some new individual sense of being individuals, some new sense of freedom. My sense is that there will also be a need for reflection and contemplation about the set more sensitive areas of your psyche that may not always be on the surface or may not be readily apparent to others, Saturn and Mars, and Pisces in your 12th house, that there's a sort of, there's a letting go, or an ending of something in a more ethereal, emotional sensitive space within you, that is okay to see and doesn't make you any less Aries. It's just a part of what might be arising at this Eclipse and something about that connecting into, you know, this, this desire to really, really go forward and be who you are, individually as yourself. Just not negating that part of you that might feel like there's a sensitive space that needs to be seen and honored and maybe healed in some way. Yeah,

Adam Elenbaas
It makes sense to use Mars Saturn in the 12th and the Chiron element in the first. That's a really nice take. Let's go ahead to Taurus. Now we're looking at the end. Let me actually back this up so that we can back it up to the Eclipse state on April 8.

Alex Amorosi
Every time I turn the wheel as an astrologer, I always want to sing the Jeopardy music.

Adam Elenbaas
Taurus
All right. So now we're pairing the Jupiter Uranus conjunction in the first with the Aries eclipse in the 12th.

Alex Amorosi
So this is really interesting, um, there, you know, if I were to use a little bit of a cliche here, I could see the impetus towards some kind of self-growth or self-work, right? There's a pull towards this Eclipse in the 12th house that feels the desire to become more powerfully oneself by maybe going really deeply into the places within us that we're not used to seeing or places within us that we're not comfortable necessarily revealing to the world and you know, there's something about a Venus rule descendant Taurus, the Senate that may not always feel comfortable with asserting oneself or individually oneself or saying no, or say, you know, I'm not looking for a consensus opinion, but just deciding to do something and going forward and excavating those spaces within the, you know, the subconscious that may need that kind of healthy expression, which leads to Jupiter Uranus in the first house, which just seems like a really powerful shift of identity, or maybe the sort of punctuation mark and the beginning of an identity that has been settling already. There's a sense of like, wow, I didn't know I could be this free. I didn't know I could allow myself this much leeway to do things that I really want to do and be exactly who I am. There's a lot of individuality coming up with these two. I think these two placements, you know, with Aries and then with the first house conjunction; there's something about, like, I can just get to be who the FIM, and I don't care, you know,

Adam Elenbaas
I love it as a, you know, card-carrying member of the Taurus rising society. I concur. I feel like the Jupiter Uranus dynamic in the first house is whether it's health, body appearance, or psychology. There's something about that conjunction that strikes me, and I've been feeling it myself as the urge toward greater freedom. It could be creative freedom. That could be professional freedom or relational freedom; make it take place really in any area of your life because the epicenter is in you. The first house is connected to, I think, the topic of power in the unconscious 12th house. How strong do I feel? Like you said, Is it okay for me to be strong? Or assertive or Marzieh. And for the Venus-ruled sign, that may be a more difficult spot to integrate the Aries 12th house. And it's a wounded spot, perhaps with the Chiron element involved, too.

So yeah. And I also think one thing would be, again, with Mars and Saturn on the 11th. Is it time to free ourselves from relationships with people or groups or friends or allies that are not allowing us to grow? You know, is there something about that 11th house, Mars, Saturn, where we're just coming up against the limit of what of limits of what's possible and certain, with certain allies or colleagues or like groups of people, and we may have to consider that, that some kind of bold individuating action even if it ruffles other people's feathers, and it's not particularly Venusian that maybe that's needed in order for us to move on from, like, different 11th House relationships that aren't working. Yeah,

Alex Amorosi
I agree. I love that.

Adam Elenbaas
Gemini
let's keep going. And we'll put Gemini on the ascendant starting to get some space back. Aries is crowding everything out. Me. So yeah, Gemini places the Aries Eclipse into the 11th with the Jupiter Uranus dynamic in the 12. Two things came to my mind about this one right away.

One is, I mean when it comes to collaborations and new collaborations, new friends, new groups, new allies that are appearing, and maybe even acting as a kind of sad, like, I didn't think I could have such healthy collaborations or friendships or people in my life, where I didn't think there was anyone out there who was going to take an interest in what I'm doing and show some belief and what I'm interested in. I mean, the 11th house was called The Joy of Jupiter in a place of allies. And so, you know, I could see a very healing series of friendships or allies or groups or collaborations coming in for Geminis with the Chiron element involved, let's say that, you know, make this a time of positive growth around community around, you know, beneficial relationships, not necessarily romantic ones, right, but maybe more professional and social dynamics in your life.

Now, the other thing with Mercury Retrograde in that house and Chiron and then the 12th house, Jupiter Uranus, also makes me think, similar to what we were saying about Taurus, is there some way in which you are ready to make a change, of course, you know, really dramatically with respect to anything ranging from a career with Mars, Saturn in the 10th, two groups of people, friends or allies, and the 12th house, Jupiter-Uranus, to me suggests that you know, don't be surprised if out from the unconscious comes a kind of explosion of sudden revolutionary impulses to just do something that feels better or do something that you want to do that you don't have to feel limited, constrained, duty bound with friends, or people or jobs or un. Now, on the other hand, with Jupiter, Uranus in the 12th, you want to be careful that you sort of look before you leap because the impetus to do something kind of rebellious in the name of something better, and maybe that you feel will lead to some more luxurious, you know, state that there could be a little bit of delusion that goes with it in the 12th house, right.

So you're careful that you're not, for example, running into some kind of new situation impulsively that is not so grounded or stable; it's not what it appears to be. And that Chiron signature at the start of a solar eclipse could also be a seed planting around some healing work that you're going to do through the impulsive bonds that you're building with people right now that, in the future, you're going to have to do some healing work because the inclusion of Chiron to me would not mean that the healing is instant, but that a healing cycle may begin. So I think you can go either way. There are new healthy relationship changes, revolutionary impulses, around 11th and 10th house stuff, but then you do have to be careful that you're not being so impulsive and going into something blind because you're being impatient or butting your head against the wall and then doing something that's going to require a lot of work to extricate yourself from later.

Alex Amorosi
Yeah, particularly with that butting your head against the wall, it's definitely in the career because Saturn Mars is in the 10th house. Yeah, you could definitely see something where it's just like, I'm trying to I'm trying Saturn. I think there will probably be something like you gotta know when it's enough, and I think the North Node in Aries is the same thing. It's like Nora has noticed very close to this Eclipse. It's possible with this too, like, I'm asserting, I'm asserting, and I'm going to assert myself, but sometimes, you know, I remember when I was learning to assert myself because I wasn't very assertive before in my early life, sometimes it's very awkward when you're first doing that. And it's like, you blow up at somebody, and all of a sudden, like, you're like, you know, cussing them out. And they're like, what I just asked you if you want it, I want to. I want to be assertive. Speaking. So, you know, that balances out too. But I think, you know, looking at Gemini rising, you know, living with the Gemini and who I love, it's okay to be stable too.

I think this Jupiter-Uranus might be the revolution; it's also okay if there are certain aspects of you that feel stable, centered, and in the status quo. I think it can feel like constant movement for Gemini sometimes, the Mercurial nature of the sign, and Mercury's strongest sign. This nature is to want to move and do and be different. This could be one of those instances where Jupiter and Uranus in the 12th house bring up an unconscious wants or needs to just have some comfort and stability in some space of life. And that the pole might be away from that with all this Aries, energy, and Mars, right at the top of your chart, and so on and so forth. But if you know, if you discover there's a place within you that's like you know in some way, shape, or form, I do want to have some sense of predictability and stability and just listen to that voice. See where it takes you because it's an interesting one here. Yeah,

Adam Elenbaas
I mean, the other thing that comes to my mind with Geminis is that your ascendant ruler, Mercury's retrograde in the 11th. So how much of this could also be about revisiting things from the past or revising or revisiting your relationships? Or even your career aspirations and things like that? There's some kind of revisionary process for you in all of this.

Cancer
All right, let's move on to cancer on the ascendant. Alex, did you get this one with the 10th House Aries Eclipse and the 11th House Jupiter Uranus conjunction? Oh, just you know, watch your mouth at work. Don't run your mouth at work. Yeah, Mercury. This is one where it's like if you've been thinking for a while, there's something that needs to change, you know, with my job situation, the impetus to change will feel probably very strong around this Eclipse, this is a really strong gravity while pulling in that direction. And I think like, you know, pairing that together with Jupiter and Uranus, there's a sense where if you're going in a new direction, in your job, or your career, or even just the way you're sort of, you know, your legacy or how you're seen in the world, there's a potential here to really mix up the people who support you in a really beneficial way. Like there are there could be, you know, this would be if I was doing a reading and I saw this, I would say like, you know, be open to what comes to you through your LinkedIn be open to it comes through to you through a friend of a friend and another company who happens to know a position is open and then that like, listen to those sorts of things. Like, I never thought I would have wanted to do that.

Or that was the job I wanted to do. Or that was the way that I wanted to express myself in my career. But now, as Jupiter and Uranus come together, it sort of Uranus usually opens up something you never thought of before, then you could be like, Oh, that's cool. Or you, it might bring up something where it sounds really good on the surface. And it sounds really freeing on the surface. But there may be more contention with it down the road than you may have thought with all of this Mars energy in the air, too.

Adam Elenbaas
Yeah. Yeah, that's well put; I think, um, you know, I'm thinking I was thinking Ashley's Cancer rising, and she's returning to work right now after, you know, choosing to be kind of full-time mom mode for a couple of years. And now that the kids are both in school, and she's stepping back into her work, it aligns with these north node eclipses. I can't help but think that whether someone's well into their career and hasn't left or not, that there's a new cycle of activity beginning for cancers in their career house how you engage with the world outside your home if you're retired. I always just mentioned that because that could be the case as well.

But a new cycle offers new opportunities for healing and for an encounter with Chiron, like what kinds of wounds you carry with respect to your public reputation; our egos are intimately wrapped up for most of us with how the world sees us and the roles we play with vocation or reputation. So, there might be the beginning of a new activity in the career house, a new inner work with respect to our egos and the roles we play in, and through our vocations. And then, I also think about new opportunities in my career that correspond with really some exciting and maybe unexpected opportunities with respect to things like community groups and allies and unexpected resources. This has the feeling of a door opening and new resources being available to us with respect to our dreams and goals in the public arena anyway.

So, for most people, that's going to be a vocation. But a nice, really nice combination of the Mercury Retrograde could have us needing to revise something or rework something. In the career house, I found that sometimes that creates a little bit more work, you know, like a little extra. It always, you know, it's like right in the middle of a busy season where lots of things are taking off, where suddenly you realize that something on your website isn't working, or, you know, like, the Mercury Retrograde could imply that you're going to have to rework some things, the spring around the Eclipse, but the new opportunities are really pouring in, which I think will outweigh any kind of busy work.

Alex Amorosi
Yeah. Yeah, for sure. For sure.

All right, let's move along to Leo. So for Leo, we have the solar Eclipse with Chiron in the ninth, and we have Jupiter and Uranus together in the 10th. So, with respect to these two placements for Leos, generally speaking, I feel like there are a couple of things that stand out to me with the Eclipse in the ninth, and I'm sort of adding in Chiron. One would be that if you if you're if you are ready for some change in perspective, your belief systems, your philosophies, and how you navigate the world based on your higher principles. This Eclipse will bring those changes it'll, or at least it'll start them; it'll start you down a path that says, okay, it is time to deeply reconsider the way that I see the world and the beliefs and values that helped me navigate my ship, that ninth house, first house, and fifth house were all connected to the idea of Dharma and Indian astrology. And the ninth house would be like, you know, to whatever extent we live a life with some spiritual or religious principles, all the more likely we are to navigate our ship successfully through all of life's different seasons. Right now, there's something new cooking in that house, right? There's, it's like, for Leos, a new way of looking at the world that will help you navigate your ship better. That's a really great possibility. Maybe there's healing that has to happen.

Healing the mind heals our faith; our faith can get damaged, and our faith can get shaken, whether that's faith in God or faith in anything, any kind of value system. So I like this as a revision, or revising a healing, a developing a deepening of our faith, beliefs, and outlook on life. But it could also initiate new things around teaching, and teachers, you know, gurus, spiritual practices, travel abroad, all of which could be packed with a lot of value that actually somehow bootstraps like a bootstrapping of, you know, our evolution.

Like, you take a trip, you go, you go, you take a program, whatever, something happens in the ninth house, and with that Aries energy, it is like, it's going to launch you forward in ways that, you know, a lot of people, for example, and you're very familiar with us, people go to yoga teacher training, so they go to a yoga retreat. And that yoga retreat is its own thing; it's a ninth house thing; they come back, and their whole life changes because of it. And that's the kind of energy that I see for Leos along with Jupiter and Uranus in the 10th, which is really creating similar kinds of breakthroughs around vocation career and where you see your life going with respect to calling and professional life. So I like that those two are pretty closely linked for Leos right now.

Alex Amorosi
Yeah, you know, thank you again, once again, for describing my life out of my appreciation. That's very much where I'm at right now, which is that we are rising. And I think that you know, this, this strikes me too, as you know, if you've been through a long cycle of learning different types of systems of belief, ordering the world, making sense of the world, maybe even healing and restoring your faith. One of the things I found so interesting about the way Chiron is depicted in that book was in the Song of Achilles; he really has that sense of a stable, calm mentor. And there might be some mentoring, mentoring roles that you're coming into, in terms of teaching people about what you've learned, you know, I could see like, like a very, like, like, you pray love, like you write a book about something you have been going through in terms of re-establishing the way you see the world and your order of the world and your sense of faith.

And you teach others from that, you know, that could really tie into a career like, you know, maybe I never saw myself as someone who does the lecture circuit, or the speaking circuit, or the author's or whatever, but it's starting to happen, or the gravity is starting to pull me in that direction. And it might be, you know, to just something I've also noticed, with Saturn and Mars in the eighth house, there might be some endings that are happening on a much deeper, energetic level with some old bonds that you've had that may have felt restrained in some way, or maybe where it's just like, you know, me and this person are going in another direction, or, you know, this, this deep karmic tie that once served me maybe doesn't serve me as much anymore. So there might be a little bit of, you know, letting go required to gracefully let go. Right?

Adam Elenbaas
Yeah, I could see this also as like an almost like the image of settling something, you know, with someone else, like, uh, yeah, the image of, like, an out-of-court settlement comes to my mind, but that's really extreme. But what I really mean is just, yeah, that there's maybe some way in which you can release old debts, or there's a need to evolve. And that requires facing certain kinds of bonds or relationships and really evaluating them because sometimes it's hard for us to move forward until we've let go of things that are definitely going to become a problem for us if we try to move forward.

Alex Amorosi
Amen. And thank you, once again, for speaking to me about my life.

Adam Elenbaas
Virgo
Let's go on to Virgo; where would you place the Aries stellium in the eighth and Jupiter, Uranus in the ninth?

Alex Amorosi
So this is, you know, interesting with the eighth house here. And I've been really, really considering your blood bank analogy for this for the eighth house and a lot of thinking a lot about it's a really great analogy for it. You know, this may be a place where if I was looking at another side, I might see something different. But for Virgos, the tendency is usually towards getting giving and service and, you know, whatever you need, and I want to make sure everything's okay, and you are satisfied and happy with all those sorts of ideas. And an Aries in solar Eclipse in the eighth house may indicate a place where you're like, doing something kind of uncomfortable, which is, I don't need to be giving an of service all the time. And I may have overdone that.

And now I need to move to where I may have actually, you know, incurred some longer term, long term wounds, that I'm moving towards a space in the eighth house of like, now it's time for me to receive, which can be the most one of the most challenging things, I think for Virgos and for Libras. To really let yourself recognize it doesn't always have to be you that's giving. It doesn't always have to be you who's being perfect and holding it all together and trying to walk the tightrope so that everybody you know feels that you're doing things beyond reproach. Sometimes, you can just say in a healthy way, by the way, if it, I'm going off to do this. I'm going to receive, I'm going to take for myself, and I think that Jupiter Uranus in the ninth house in Taurus, particularly, maybe reevaluating, you know, one sense of ordering the work. It's okay to order the world around comfort and your comfort; sometimes, your resources and your embodied needs are also important. Yeah, I think it's really powerful. This could be a very transformational sequence for Virgos this month. Yeah,

Adam Elenbaas
I mean, especially when we consider again, the Mars-Saturn conjunction in the seventh, it ruling the Eclipse, it really makes me feel like if you are, let's say if you're dealing with people who are domineering and not fair, and you're dealing with people who are not making an effort at reciprocation, that this is a place to separate yourself, you know, to just claim independence.

On the other hand, I could see Mars Saturn coming together with the Aries eighth house as the incentive to join yourself with other people and focus disciplined efforts towards something that you really care about, that you're willing to sacrifice on behalf of, and that there's a higher belief that's coming in and creating some kind of very deep bonding and cooperating with other people. Something you can't do by yourself. But you could go in either direction because the sun symbols really speak to the theme of either not going it alone and joining for the sake of something more or separating because there's some kind of inequality and seeking out greater freedom and independence from unhealthy bondage.

Alex Amorosi
Yeah, I like that. I like the contrast of the two. Absolutely. Yeah.

Adam Elenbaas
It'll hit differently for different people. This exact planet, you know? Yeah. Anyway, let's go on to. Did you say anything? Do you want to say anything else about that?

Alex Amorosi
I really enjoyed that point.

Adam Elenbaas
Libra
Let's go on to Libra, where we have the Aries eclipse in the seventh and Jupiter, Uranus in the eighth. Now, I think you could actually make some of the same exact, you can make some of the same descriptions for Libras. Because you've got the Aries stellium in the seventh, which can initiate new cycles and love and relationships that are very powerful, and that provides you with a newfound sense of? Well, let me just put it this way. Sometimes, relationships come into our lives. And even though we're bonding and joining ourselves with someone else, the relationship grants us more freedom. The very mundane example being that you may not have to carry such a load financially, you share rent, you know, like, I remember when my wife and I got together, and I was like, Holy crap, you can do this with another person. This is great. You know, we split the grocery bill like the aisle and stuff like that. And, and so just, but like, let's, let's expand it beyond the mundane and the financial piece.

There are ways in which people enter our lives and the value that they bring grants us more freedom, more opportunity, and more possibility for expansion. That's the kind of thing that I'm seeing here on the most positive note that I can think of with the Aries stellium. There's some healing maybe too, with Chiron wrapped up in it, and then Jupiter, Uranus in the eighth providing this kind of unexpected opening through the resources, assets, and through what others bless us within their presence, or what they have what they're in touch with. So I like this as a strong moment to partner.

Now flip it around because I think you have to look at the shadow to the other aspects here might be about, you know, like any kinds of eighth house, like any kind of Devil's bargain, where it's like, oh, look at how strong that person is, look at what they have, look at their assets, look at what they could give me. And there's a kind of selfishness where we're not actually evaluating whether or not this person matches; we're seeing them in terms of what they have, or what they're in possession of that we could come into possession of by proxy.

That's huge; it's a huge part of how we evaluate relationships; it's actually healthy; we have to consider, like, what does this person have that they're bringing on my into my rowboat with me because we're trying to get to the far shore, you know, but, but like, on the other hand, the companionship piece, and then, the mingling of Souls is primary, you can't put the cart before the horse. So I would look at Libras, who sometimes struggle with this kind of evaluation, the objective picture of what looks good, what on paper fits, versus a deeper exploration of what is or isn't aligned with my heart. And I think that's probably, maybe, maybe that's something that's wrapped up in all this too, oh, I love that.

Alex Amorosi
And I really identify with a lot of that, from a Libra Moon perspective, you know, is that wherever I got into trouble in relationships in my early life, it was always because they were good on paper, they looked like they would work it's like and we bring these resources we have this but it's just like, but you're not aligned, you're not compatible. There's something that just doesn't work on a level where you feel stable, safe and secure, emotionally and spiritually, and in so many ways that you really need to in a relationship, and I was thinking I was reflecting yours you were talking about that Adam, like with the healing element involved in this type of eclipses, there's some sort of like older wound or excuse me, something some older pattern that is either seeking resolution or coming to the surface.

That is one of the ways I think that, on the flip side, you were saying we feel we can do a lot more sometimes when someone is in our corner that we feel stable, safe, and secure with; we feel like we can launch more we feel like we can open more if you feel sort of like there's a safe soft place to come back to at the end of the day to talk this over with like you said an impractical level there are resources that are you have that are capable you're capable of doing that with. I think that the distinction between seeing what might look good on the surface and seeing what is beneficial but also connected to you on a heart level is really important here. And there may be some, some amount of sacrifice necessary just because that Eclipse is ruled from your sixth house, there's like, you know, some molds cycle is like, you know, it might feel hard to let go of this pattern. But if I do, there's a lot more connection and resource instability that's on the horizon for it. Right? Yeah. Yeah, like that. So I think we've handled Libra well enough,

Scorpio
Let's move on to Scorpio. For you, Alex. This places our Aries eclipse in the sixth and the Jupiter Uranus conjunction into the seventh.

Alex Amorosi
Okay, so I think that this is this is really interesting. This, this Eclipse, for me, would be a new cycle of persevering through something that might, on the surface, feel like a challenge or something that may feel like it needs to be taken back in some way. It feels like power was taken away in some way, or some part of yourself, or your soul was taken in in some way. And there's an impetus with this to heal by going on the quest to reclaim that. However, however, that looks and that could look in many different ways. But I would think with Jupiter and Uranus coming together in the seventh house, there is some kind of relational aspect to this, the way you relate to other people, your primary relationships, marriage, those common topics for the seventh house, that there's a new way, maybe a radically new way of seeing the relationship that sort of facilitates this process of, you know, going on a sacred quest. And you know, you think of like the idea of, you know, whether it's literal or metaphoric, like the shamanic soul retrieval, where you go back, and you say, like, you know, something was taken from me something as I was, I was deprived of something, and I'm going to get that backward. I'm going to find it in the present moment. I also have a sense of feeling whole and complete again, in some way that I may not have for a while. There's something that's being drawn back into the present moment. Yeah, yeah. Nice.

Adam Elenbaas
So, I do wonder about what the thorn in your side is. This is for Scorpios, the Aries Chiron conjunct, like the solar Eclipse, conjoined Chiron in the sixth, the place that was described by ancient astrologers as those things that we struggle with or that we have to sacrifice for, and also the labor that we do. And this, this sense of what frustrates us, but also, by means of which we develop character and perseverance, is why it's a really rich house. But with Chiron there, I just wonder what if we had enough with, like, if you're a Scorpio, like, we're, you might be at a breaking point where you're like, you know what, I am ready to overcome something that has been an issue for a while. And it's gonna take courage and perseverance.

I happen to know a Scorpio rising, who is, at last, having a surgery that they didn't want to have, but they're so sick of dealing with something that they're just like, I'm going to I'm finally going to do this thing that I know is going to set me back a while I'm gonna have to not be you know, work and child-rearing and all this stuff, it's going to be really hard to do. But I'm so sick of doing this. And sometimes, the image that kind of comes to my mind with Chiron there, and I think it's probably because of the glyph that I thought of this. Sometimes, it takes a thorn to dig it out. There's a kind of effort and willpower and sacrifice. And I see Mars and Saturn in the fifth. And they seem to suggest, look for the sake of your joy for the sake of your happiness. Make this effort, you know, in the short term, may suck in the long term. It'll set you free, you'll feel so much better, you'll overcome, you'll prove to yourself that you're capable, and it will be okay.

Actually, in a weird way, rather than thinking about Jupiter and Uranus in this context as the seventh house of relationships, I think about it in the way that ancient astrologers talked about it as the setting place, the place of resolution which is the when the sun sets it's like ah, workday is over close the shop, let's go to the marketplace or the village and like, you know, dance or let's there's what do we do in the nocturnal space, right? We set the work down for the day. It's done. It's complete, and they talked about the seventh house in that respect. I can't help but wonder, for Scorpios, if you're ready for something a little bit better, a little bit more peaceful. But it might require digging a thorn out with a Thor, the Jupiter Uranus conjunction coming up right after it suggests look, if you do this, a cycle of struggle is going to be complete. Agreed.

Alex Amorosi
I love that, you know, as someone who went through a series of six-house transitions, Not the least of which was Pluto over the last 15 years. That is exactly what the sixth house feels like. And you know, what I think is great we are a Mars-ruled descendant. This is a Mars-ruled sign where this is happening, and it gives you the determination necessary. The sixth house, as I felt it, happened when I had a series of transits through the sixth house. It's like, you gotta pull up deep within you and like, this is what I want. If this is sort of what's required, so be it. Yep. Yep. But determined to get there. Yeah, yep.

Adam Elenbaas
Sagittarius
Well, let's move to Sagittarius, which takes us into the fifth house with the Aries Eclipse, and the Jupiter-Uranus conjunction goes into the sixth. Um, One of the things that I love about the fifth house as I've been getting to know it more and more is that I've been spending a lot of time looking at the triads through the Indian tradition; ancient Indian tradition would share so much with the ancient Hellenistic tradition. And you guys have heard me before talking about the fifth house as a place that was described as the joy derived from one's Dharma or connected to one's Dharma. It sort of is like there's a way in which the Indian philosophy of astrology is saying, Look, if you are in touch with your inner essence, there should be not constant unending happiness, but there should be happiness and a sense of fulfillment, and ease and joy, that is rhythmic.

That's like, it's there that is flowing. And, like, I don't think anyone would say that that's in the material world, that that's something that's going to happen. 24/7. But I think that when you have this kind of Aries Eclipse with the Chiron in the fifth house, for Sagittarius right now, the question is what is going to make you feel freer and happier. And it might be that simple. Now, that could expand into, for some people, that might be, like, a choice about whether or not to have children. For some people, it might be about creative projects. For people who are retired, it might be about, like, what are you doing? Anything that actually makes you happy in retirement? Are you taking some risks? Are you doing new things you promised yourself you'd always do these things when you retired, but you're not doing them? Whatever.

The point is that as a matter of personal healing, the question of happiness and unprecedented joy and freedom is paramount right now. It's really important. Now, Jupiter Uranus, in the sixth, suggests that if you're going to get there, you have to make sure a breakthrough is required. In your thinking, you have to stop pushing a boulder up the hill and letting it roll back down; there, you have to think about what you're struggling with and why you keep struggling with the same things. Now, when I pair that with Jupiter Uranus in the sixth, it can constitute a breakthrough with respect to the things that we're struggling with. And if you pair that with the emphasis on greater freedom and happiness in the fifth house, you get kind of a story there. But then also look at Saturn and Mars in the fourth.

And I think to myself, Okay, this house was called moksha. But Indian astrologers, which could mean enlightenment from the body in the material realm and rebirth and that it also just means freedom from stress and struggle that's more normal for the workaday world, that when you come home at night, it's kind of similar to the seventh house, there's just a release or liberation from worldly concerns. Now it's time to make some popcorn, watch a movie, hang out, or do whatever. So that kind of Mars Saturn in the fourth is maybe pointing towards an inability that you have because of restlessness or being overly busy or, you know, punishing yourself with the same old struggles, that there's some inability to release to just let go. And so I wonder if these parents sound strange, because Sagittarians are usually very free-spirited, right?

But the thing is, Sagittarius was also a sign that was associated with constant movement, warfare, and competition. Sometimes, savages are busy and active but not necessarily happy. Yeah. Oh, yeah. Do you know what I mean? And it's like, there's angst sometimes with all of that. The centaurs are interesting because they're very wise creatures, but a lot of them are also very angry and belligerent and sometimes kind of drunk. That doesn't mean that you have to think about those things literally. But I would look at these things and say, Yeah, but is it easy? Are you having fun? Are you feeling the ease, joy, and activity in your life freeing? Is it truly uplifting?

Alex Amorosi
Yeah, I mean, that's that's beautifully said. I think you know, in, in astrology of fate, Liz Greene talks a lot about Sagittarius in the Centaur archetype and relates it somewhat to Chiron in sacrifice; you know, It's because Sagittarius sometimes might be speaking a little from projection here from being a Sagittarius. There is a sacrificial quality; you don't think a lot about Sagittarius, like, I'll just get it done, no big deal, like the hope on the horizon, like it's fine. It's okay, it's whatever. Eventually, you start to wear out. And you start to realize, like, oh, I've been kind of overdoing it here and feeling like I had to be obligated to sometimes be guilty about not doing it.

And I'm wondering if there's a need to assert on behalf of your creative pleasure here, there's this Eclipse, there's just like, you know, in order to have my movie and popcorn and snuggle at the end of the night, I have to stand up and say something here, which might not be easy to do, or might actually be healing for a long-standing wound around not feeling like one can assert on behalf of one's own pleasure and happiness. And I think that you know, I think that there are a lot of great allies for this. I'm not sure it'll be in the chart. I'm not sure it'll be entirely comfortable. But I also see Jupiter and Uranus in the sixth. So I could just see that, just through the ring in the volcano, man. I'm good. You know, I can I can kick back now. And there might actually be something that happens in terms of a breakthrough in some long-standing set of the logjam that's been going on, that feels like, oh, okay, now you know what the next thing is, I deserve to be happy. I deserve to feel joy. I deserve to feel connected to myself. I deserve to go home at the end of the night. And close my computer at a reasonable hour. That sort of feeling. Yep. Yeah. Yeah, like that.

Adam Elenbaas
Capricorn
Move on to Capricorn next, and we've got the Aries eclipse in the fourth house with Jupiter, Uranus, conjoining in the fifth.

Alex Amorosi
So, it's almost similar in a way. I'm saying, you know, it was sad as there were a couple of different shifts here. But, you know, I look at this, and I reflect a lot on again, that idea of, you know, the Capricorn cross to bear the thing I have to carry, you know, and not let taint me,, and I think that there might be something in this Eclipse, about looking back into ancestral lineage wombs, things that have come down over the centuries, maybe that have just kind of wild their way through your family line, and impetus to take some action on them once and for all. Sometimes, you know, and I've really, I've developed a lot of respect for this lately, and some of the classes I'm taking this year on trauma-informed healing, there's a, there's someone who comes along who, in a family line that just says enough, it ends here, whatever this is, it ends here, you know, I'm going to use the ring, and I'm going to be the one who throws the ring in the volcano.

And that's not always easy. But on the other side of that, you know, this Jupiter Uranus in the fifth house might be saying, like, in the name of radically altering your relationship to the desire to have things that are enjoyable or feel centered in a space of joy within yourself, not always happy, but it's more stable, abiding sense of joy. There might just be one or two things that you do some intensive work around that finally say, Enough. It ends here with me whether it feels right or not, in our fair or not. Sometimes that just falls in our laps, you know? Yep.

Adam Elenbaas
Dovetailing with what you just said, though, and getting back to this Capricorn horoscope. Any new cycle that's getting started around ancestry and family karma, living environment, home property, and land. It makes a ton of sense for this Aries Eclipse. I also think we're breaking ancestral karma with respect to parents out there with Jupiter-Uranus in the fifth house of children and then all of this Aries energy in the fourth. I really appreciate what you were just saying, Alex, because this is for a lot of parents, who are Capricorn risings; this is going to be about creating a totally different scenario for your kids. There's the breaking of family curses that come to mind. The other thing, though, would be just anything in which you can go in a new direction with respect to home and family that has this dovetailing with greater happiness or creative fulfillment, just those two things together, when the fourth and the fifth, come to my mind and then also how do you set up the environment around you to be conducive to greater happiness and creative fulfillment and to support a new cycle around your roots your home When your family because of Mars, Saturn in the third, their presence makes me think that you may have to do some critical judging or evaluating of what's around you, that will or will not support the kind of foundational change that you're trying to make.

Alex Amorosi
Yeah, you may need to, if you can, you know, a little nook in your house or a room in your house, that's just yours. You can't have interruptions around there; you just need space. I always say that with him teaching people meditation, even if you just have one space where you sit and meditate every day, that becomes your routine. The energy is imbued there, which makes it more conducive to work. Yeah, that's like that.

Adam Elenbaas
Aquarius
Aquarius rising. I'll take this one. We look at the Eclipse in the third, with Jupiter and Uranus in the fourth. This is interesting because the house is associated with the angular seven, rather than the 11th, by trines. I've been looking at those in those triads. As I said, in Indian astrology, it's a house that's related to pleasure and pleasure through other people. But in the third house, the best way that I found it, thinking about what that means more tangibly, is about people and culture.

If you think about the culture of a fish tank, the fish, which is, let's say, in this case, the birth chart owner may have a little rock that they live under, they like to hide under the rest of the aquarium, including the other fish, including the algae that are growing is the culture that they live in. It's the ecosystem that they're familiar with. And so a lot of our happiness is actually dependent upon how well we are matched with an environment that we're living in. It's a psychic environment; it's emotional, and it might be socio-economic or political. I mean, it's so many different things. And a lot of what culture is with respect to astrology is that the third house is subtle. It's not necessarily gross; it could be your next-door neighbor. In the ancient world, it would be like you, your kin, your siblings, and people who lived in and around where your parents raised you.

But nowadays, culture is a really intangible thing. Because we're all online, we all have little avatars we're running around with, and we have, we're multi-dimensional when it comes to cultural overlaps that we have, you know, but when I think of Aquarians, right now, I think Oh, Aquarius is ready to take some big risks, or some strong, bold new decisions with respect to what the culture of your life looks like. Cultural innovation comes to mind for Aquarians right now, which has to do with people, places, and subtle things around you that you align with or not. It could be that culture is shifting or changing as you're also looking at your resources and what you are limited by or how you're trying to develop skills, abilities, and resources to overcome various limitations, kind of like Mars Saturn in the second.

This is also connected intimately with Jupiter, Uranus trying to create a breakthrough in the fourth house, which is the place of foundations; I look at all of this for Aquarius rising. And I think to myself; I would not be surprised if you have a good handful of Aquarians, for example, who are trying to move, reallocate resources, get into a different neighborhood that reflects different, maybe like, you're moving from a city out to the country because you want a little bit more natural environment, whatever the case may be, it's like, it feels like an evaluation of resources, assets, and values, with a desire to shift something around in the environment so that there's more happiness and connection. It's also going to link back to things like home, family, and living environment.

Alex Amorosi
Yeah, I love that. I think there's, um, you know, I was reflecting as you were talking about one of my history professors in college would often talk about climate, you know, different countries and civilizations and the climate that's involved in it, and how that climate affects the events that go on within historically like it was just sort of a space we exist within that we even just say, well, that's just the way things are. But we don't realize that it's sort of a generated climate and culture and those sorts of ideas that we have. And I'm wondering about that.

Maybe even with Aries to like the realize realization, as I've been to, I've been caught in a culture I didn't realize I was, or I've been in an environment like you were saying that like doesn't support me on all levels or is not allowing me to to see the worth and value that I have to offer to the world. And I need to break from it, or I need to move from it, or I need to shift from it in some way. And I think that when you bring the formidable intellectual power to connect that Aquarians have but also their general sense of deeply held values deeply ingrained in hell. Values, it might be a time where it's just like, you know, I didn't realize that I, maybe my values don't align in some way, and I have to make a bold new change in what surrounds me and where I am in order to feel like I'm in line with them again. Yeah, yeah.

Adam Elenbaas
Pisces
Last but not least, we have Pisces with the Aries eclipse in the second and the Jupiter-Uranus conjunction in the third.

Alex Amorosi
So this is interesting; I think that you know, for Pisces, it's so important, or one of the skills that sometimes I think we have to learn skills that are not natural to us but are necessary for some way to move us forward or help us feel empowered. It's, it's, I think there's something here about really boldly taking action on behalf of your own value. And it's very easy, I think, especially for mutable signs and mutable water signs like Pisces. You know, there's adaptability to that.

Well, it's cool here. That's cool. It's cool. It's cool. And now I think there's something where it's like, but have I said, it's cool, it's okay, it's, that's alright, too much. I think, you know, I've often found over the years that, you know, self-betrayal is not often one big act, sometimes it is, but it's kind of death by 1000 cuts its stuff by 1000, you know, oh, well, sure. Well, okay, or oh, maybe here. And this Eclipse really might say, like, you know, I have to assert on behalf of my value, I have to charge what I'm worth I have to it, whether it's literally or metaphorically, I have to, I want to take a stand here on behalf of what really lifts supports me. And it's okay to have those things to support me and take a very definitive stand on that may not feel entirely comfortable for a mutable sign like Pisces, but it could feel really empowering.

And it could feel like it shores you up in a lot of ways and maybe leads to some, some considerations you have never had never crossed your mind before about what's surrounding you, who's around you, the people that surround you who are the, you know, I think about oftentimes, you know, the person who's whispering in the Emperor's ear, so to speak, right, who are the what are the people surrounding Horus surrounding you? And what are they? What's their influence on you? And I think there was something I was listening to on some podcasts the other day that said, you know, what surrounds us and who surrounds us is one of the biggest indicators of where we'll wind up and what we'll do. Yeah, and I think that there's something with Jupiter-Uranus here. I have some real revelations about what that is and maybe some really beneficial changes that could come from it.

Adam Elenbaas
Right? Yeah. It also makes me think, yeah, what is your limit? Like? Like, you're kind of getting at this. What, where's your hard limit? And that could be with respect to really anything. time, energy, money, resources, relationships, jobs, like where is your, I can't do anymore, I've given all that I can, I've got to stop here. And then also, I see that as a real theme, with Mars-Saturn governing the first house with such an emphasis with the Eclipse in the second, you're thinking about your time, your money, your energy, or your resources and what you feel like you have and what you feel like you don't have within you. Then I also think about, you know, saying, You know what, I'm going to put my nose to the grindstone, and I am going to work really hard on behalf of something new that I want to cultivate, that I want to bring forth from myself and the Mars Saturn feels like it's this melding of, you know, like, almost like the, what is it? Superman, the Man of Steel? Is that the? I think so. I think so.

Yeah, that kind of feels like Mars and Saturn coming together is like iron, emotionally palpable, and like a will to do something. And it's on behalf of some new asset or resource that you want, and it's going to make your life better. And there's this kind of belief that I can do this. Jupiter Uranus in the third is also suggesting that maybe this is connected to something that you really feel needs to change in the world around you that that fishtank analogy again, where Jupiter Uranus says, the culture has got to change the culture of my life, the environment of my life, mentally, emotionally, physically, environmentally. I'm ready for something different here. And I'm going to cultivate a new kind of resource. I'm going to bring forth a new kind of version of myself, better equipped, cetera, et cetera.

So it feels like a lot of self-driven developmental qualities for Pisces; I'm going to cultivate something, and I'm building something. I'm developing something. I need more from myself. I'm going to push myself, or I'm going to develop something new because I've realized that I can't give any more to something else. It's kind of reaching a limit. Yeah, for sure. Cool. Wow, we did it. We did it. April again. Yeah.
