Starcodes April 8, 2022

This week the stars encourage us to ask tough questions then make quick but well-thought-out decisions and act upon them. Mercury, who symbolizes how we communicate, move, and decide has been in head-strong Aries since the day of the Oscars, keeps the heat percolating and pushes us forward. This fire can help us break logjams of indecision or comfortable inaction, we just need to take a deep breath before we leap and think about the consequences of our impulses.

The weekend begins under a sensitive and thoughtful Cancer Moon dueling with that sparky Aries Mercury and sends us mixed messages: get started but stay safe. They encourage us to make clear family plans, but make sure any sudden decisions are really for the good of all involved and not just a self-protective reaction.

Mercury squares deep Pluto throughout the weekend and encourages us to feed our curiosity and get to the bottom of a problem or look deeper within our soul. He calls us to look under rocks and face the tough stuff. We just need to watch the tendency to think in extremes. If depression snags us it furthers to stay busy on a constructive project until the mood begins to shift. This heat cools down a bit as Mercury enters enduring Taurus late Sunday, calms down some of that feisty energy and replaces it with persistence.
