April begins with Mercury retrograde, causing communication breakdowns, nervous energy and slower progress. There is a plus side: the backward movement of Mercury gives us a chance to collectively pause and reassess our progress. This month’s new moon on April 15th is the perfect time to start over again, thanks to a helpful conjunction between the sun and Uranus. The full moon in Scorpio on April 30th is sure to be intense and sexy, opening the door for profound healing and the releasing of psychic tension.Heal your emotional wounds this month, dear Aries. Practice mindfulness and meditation to deal with the inner turbulence that could surface during the first week of April. You might also benefit from massage and energy work to help soothe your body and soul.
