In the meantime... here's some data on April and May 2009.

April 9th – May 9th Full Moon 19 Libra 53
While the Sun is still in Aries through April 19th there is a lot of fiery energy to initiate change. In
general, people are inspired to shine their light. The Full Moon April 9th just before Easter gives
you the Power of Renunciation – to renounce a limitation in your personality and try to overcome
it. This may be a habit, glamour or illusion. You have the will active within you now to intelligently
deal with it and cast it away. This will be easy to do at Easter time because the energies are
present and once you try, the energies will help. Renunciation is the giving up of something now
for something better in the future. It is necessary as it is an act of purification and paves the way
for the Power of Resurrection to act within you. Easter is a period when you are inspired to
resurrect yourself and your life from the tomb of your personal limitations and hindrances in order
to shine out as the Soul of Divine Light which you are!

The Eastern Mystics tell us that the Constellations are charged with cosmic electricity and their
fields of force extend for many millions of miles. The mystics teach that when these constellations
are observed from a far off point in space, one can see an opening and unfolding lotus of great
beauty. Our Sun with its family of planets, our solar system, travels in space and every thirty days
enters into the electromagnetic field of one these constellations.

The Full Moon period is the moment when our Sun synchronizes with the energy flow of the
constellation through which it is moving and transmits that energy to the planets and to our
Earth. Actually, there is synchronization between Humanity and Divinity at each Full Moon period.
The full moon period begins 3 days before to 3 days afterward. The day of the Full Moon is called
the Day of Contact with the Spiritual Hierarchy and it lasts for 12 hours before to 12 hours after
the Full Moon. This is why teachers always recommend meditation during Full Moons.

This Full Moon is the first of three sacred Full Moons which occur every year with the next two
occurring in May and June respectively. This one is dedicated to Christ and His Resurrection. The
energy of Aries is fiery. It charges and stimulates the Spark in every form and causes them to
advance and progress. It is the energy of evolution and taking things to the next level collectively
and individually. Resurrection is striving and labor. Striving is the effort of the Spirit to conquer
matter, to conquer the body, the emotions, and to conquer space and time. When labor combines
with striving, resurrection can occur. So this is the time of the overcoming and destruction of our
limitations and negative habits, emotions, mind sets, circumstances, etc. This applies to the
individual as well as to the collective whole. Ask yourself, what do you need to let go of in order to
make your life better? This letting go makes space for the new to enter in .

Aries is the place where the initial idea to institute activity takes form. It is the birth place of the
new ideas and in truth an idea is a spiritual impulse taking form. If you have gone within during the
first two weeks of April, then April 13 – 18 is your time of receiving the new seed idea(s) from
spirit so that you can move forward during the coming year. You move to the next level in some
area of your life. Look to your Aries house in your chart.

April 6 – 13 Full Moon Meditation/Full Moon occurs April 9th at 10:56 am
Imagine upon an altar a flaming chalice. You are dressed in white and in your right hand you are
holding a golden chalice. You fill your chalice with the liquid fire from the flaming chalice on the altar
and in your imagination go to those places and people needing light, spirit, purification, peace and
harmony.

See yourself in a city or on a mountain and hold your chalice high. See beams of fiery light
radiating out of your chalice and penetrating into the city, country, nation or race.

Then visualize the earth and pour out light from your chalice to cover the earth, to purify and
resurrect her, all her resources and all evolving life.

Affirm the Self:
More radiant than the sun,
Purer than the snow,
Subtler than the ether-
Is the self,
The spirit within my heart;
I am that Self
That SELF am I.

Now see a blanket of spiritual light and fire form around the planet and penetrate into each living
form.

(Note: This meditation is based on the law which says "Energy follows Thought." With this
meditation a thought form of the energy of Aries spreads over the planet and this can be used by
higher forces as a ready vehicle to distribute the energy of Aries. We can certainly use this energy
now to bring in the new way of doing and thinking on this planet.)

Since this Full Moon forms an in conjunct to Mars, some of you may find yourself in rather
stressful circumstances.

The best way to handle the energies during the coming two weeks is to seek peace, be willing to
compromise, listen to the ideas and feelings of others. Before the Full Moon you have been
focusing on your needs but now it is necessary to balance your needs with the needs of others
around you. This is a theme you will find echoing throughout the year due to Saturn in Virgo
applying to the opposition of Uranus in Pisces. Freedom in general, getting our freedom is
somewhat hampered in some area of your life. This indicates that wherever Uranus rules and is
located in your natal chart, you may be experiencing a certain amount of delay, frustration, blocks
or limitation. For example, if Uranus rules your third house, you may have a block or difficulty
regarding teaching or attending a class, a relative may be having a more difficult time or you need
a new car but financially it is not the right time, etc.

April 24th through May 30th, Venus and Mars will be within 10 degrees of each other.
This could indicate that important agreements involving close relationships, personal and business,
can be made. Difficult negotiations may now be worked through. Agreements and decisions will be
made that affect the financial crises in a positive way. However, Pluto is the sign of bankruptcy and
I feel we will see more foreclosures and small bank failures. Wait until May to make any large
purchases requiring financing. Our relationships as a nation with other countries and the world
economy are poised to take an evolutionary step forward right now. Look for new arrangements in
the middle east so far as our involvement there especially in Iraq, Iran, and Afghanistan.

Also during late April, Venus and Mars in Aries squares Pluto in Capricorn. I look at this as a timing
factor for what is happening. Keep in mind there are many obstacles to overcome to get to the
next level and solve the problems in our own lives but also in the world. Pluto in Capricorn for the
next 11 years is in its beginning phase which is a break down phase in the world governments and
world economy. The break down requires brave and courageous ideas to be set into motion. The
underlying energy of Pluto in Capricorn is that the right to entitlement is challenged and no longer
accepted. We are looking within and building a new thought structure of why we look up to and
respect others. Money and power no longer are a reason for trust and respect. We are learning to
dig deeper and to incorporate a better value system. Government officials must think in terms of
the environment and the masses from a world perspective.

April 24 – May 24 New Moon 5 Taurus 04
The ruler of this New Moon is Venus which moves into Aries the day of this lunation giving people
a new sense of hope as banks loosen their lines of credit and with the Favorable aspect of the New
Moon to Pluto the world economy begins to improve!!! The key phrase for Taurus is I have. The
question then becomes what do you need and what do you want. The idea of being more
economical and enjoying the simple things of life. Our values are becoming more aligned with what
is really important to us. I will say that with this New Moon you need to watch your spending as
Venus in Aries is impulsive spending. Just make sure you don’t over do it.
