Correspondences & Astro Info for 22 April 2020

Wednesday is governed by Mercury. Below are its corresponding energies as well as the current transit chart for the witch’s perusal.

Current Outlook

• Lunar position ~ 10th House/Aries until 12:36 PM PDT when it travels into 10th House/Taurus suggesting that our initiating focus transitions to a focus on increased patience and practicality.
• Sign ~ Aries (extroverted, assertive, leader, impulsive, aggressive, ego-focus)
• Elemental Influence ~ initiating Fire energies align with the Aries effect today and motivation is strong, but note the shift to Taurus in the early afternoon and the influence that may provide.
• Energetic Quality/Mode ~ stability and structure continue with Fixed energies providing the strongest impact. Inflexibility is also present due to the weakened effect of Mutable energies.
• Houses ~ 10th (public life, life direction, profession, achievement)
• Rays ~ all Rays are increasing in effect with the 6th Ray of love and devotion having the lesser effect which should help guard against fanaticism. The increase may be aligning with the 4/22/22 energetic gateway that opens today suggesting profound realignment has begun.
• Ascendant influence ~  Leo – purposeful, warm, lively, generous, sincere, ambitious, prideful.
• Midheaven influence ~ Aries – life direction involving independence, leadership, and action.
• Black Moon Lilith ~ 9th House/Aries – difficulty aligning with societal expectations. In other words, Lilith…wear a mask and gloves and stop arguing about it.
• Node influences ~ N Node – 12th Hs/Cancer; S Node 6th Hs/Capricorn describes an awareness of self within the collective. The challenge is in learning humility and expressing oneself honestly and with integrity
• Intercepted Signs ~ Gemini/Sagittarius – ideas abound but may have difficulty finding appropriate expression (for some inexplicable reason, I wrote Saturn yesterday instead of Sagittarius…sigh)
• Duplicated Signs ~ Leo/Aquarius – self-assertion is at odds with self-expression.
• Temperament ~ Choleric (hot/dry – extroverted, independent, motivated)
• Lunar Phase ~ New – 22 April 2020 (energetic gateway) 03°Tau24′
• Mansion of the Moon ~ 3rd – Azoraya – 25°Aries42′; Showering, the Pleiades, profitable for hunters, sailors, and alchemists
• Retrograde ~  Juno (reassessment of relationships) critical to do right now…reconnect with others
• Numerology ~ 22 – Master Number for the Cosmic Builder…and currently, we have a 4 22 22 energetic gateway opening today that realigns our expression of soul unity or collective consciousness.
• Favorable/Unfavorable for Magick ~ very good
