Assessing Asserting Assuming and Aligning: April's Libra Full Moon

We can easily forgive a child who is afraid of the dark; the real tragedy of life is when men are afraid of the light. Plato

Confront the dark parts of yourself, and work to banish them with illumination and forgiveness. Your willingness to wrestle with your demons will cause your angels to sing. Use the pain as fuel, as a reminder of your strength. August Wilson

As soon as your consciousness is right, God is there. He is not hiding from you, you are hiding from Him. Paramahamsa Yogananda

In times like these, it helps to recall that there have ALWAYS been times like these. Paul Harvey

If there is no God, who pops up the next Kleenex? Art Hoppe

Make friends with the angels, who though invisible are always with you… Often invoke them, constantly praise them, and make good use of their help and assistance in all your temporal and spiritual affairs. Saint Francois de Sales

These sure are interesting times and many people are reporting that they're not particularly enjoying the very intense energies that have been around. Of course, as is natural in the scheme of things, some are doing fine, rowing their boat and getting on with their lives. However, they will most likely have quite a few people around them that are finding it difficult to find the direction, the vehicle, the impetus, the approval or the oars that they need. What a handful of energies we're confronted with with this full Moon in Libra. It's a major Aries event with Mars and Saturn facing off across the relationship axis of Libra and Aries. 

Occurring on April 17 in the United States and April 18 in Australia, this full Moon is another in a series of super moons. With so much happening these last several months (particularly this last month around the time of the very powerful Virgo full Moon), many are feeling spaced out, concerned with difficult situations, wondering what might happen next and generally feeling a little pushed to the edge. This is another very Aries lunation, with Uranus, the Black Moon Lilith, Mars, Mercury, Jupiter and the Sun all in Aries. Add to the mix the fact that Mars is on a 'bomb' degree and it's smack opposite Saturn, and this is another rather incendiary lunar event.
