Astrology for April 17, 2025

The Moon in Sagittarius gives us a liveliness that is deeply appreciated at this time. So much is being asked of us. We are moving into uncharted waters and there is a constant underlying trepidation that is unfolding and manifesting in frightening ways.

Pluto and Jupiter will sesquiquadrate and it may feel as if everything we used to know and depend upon is being challenged. It is tricky right now because we have some personal goals that struggle to move in this current environment. The world feels like it is collapsing and trying to bring new things into such a place feels like spreading seeds in a barren desolate wasteland.

Yet the way through this perilous place is to focus on our dreams and allow them to be protected inside our heart and soul. They need to be nurtured by us until the time is right for them to be seen and recognized. Clearly, now is not that time.

We are not supposed to push when we are caught in a riptide. We are being taken out to deep and treacherous waters and what is important is to go with the flow but to stay alert for the moment that tide spits us out and we can finally move freely in the direction that we want to go.

We cannot allow our mind to think that we are so much more important than others. All exaggerations right now will be costly later.

Focus on the mysteries that are being uncovered inside. Allow the Mercury/Neptune conjunction to give depth to our deepest inner selves.

Mars and Juno seem to be in the mood for radical honesty. While that is always a good thing, it is important to read where others are at before one fully engages. Not everyone is ready to hear the truth. This type of truth wants to strengthen connections that matter and share insights from our own personal exploration.

Today is a moment when we could find that our resolve is strong and that we need to stay in the place that we are conscious of the agendas of others.
