Astrology for the Week of April 30, 3012

By Michele Freeman

The theme for this week is trust.  Trust that you are doing the right thing and have done the right thing up to now.  When you doubt your actions, you stop the flow and create resistance.  Trust in yourself this week.

The first part of the week is relatively quiet but that is a needed respite after the chaotic overwhelming energy of April.  I am welcoming the calmer energy.

Thursday, May 3, Mercury is sextile Venus, which makes it a great day for communication of all kinds.  This would be a great day to approach others with your ideas to garner support.  It also will be a day that creativity will be at an all time high, so keep a recorder or a pad of paper handy to make a record of all the inspiration you will receive today. 

Saturday, May 5 brings Cinco de Mayo and a Full Moon in Scorpio.  Then, when you add Mercury opposite Saturn, today, the calmness has ended.  Earlier this week, you would have felt as if you were finally in the flow, and today is the day; you are kicked off the path.  However, this actually is wonderful, as it shows what limiting belief you have that is holding you back.  Most issues, like a lack of money may not be your personal issue but rather one that has been handed down from previous generations.  What I have been receiving in personal sessions is that whatever happened in your family 7 generations ago is what is playing in your life big time right now.  For me, it was the Irish potato famine when my ancestors lost everything and had to start over in America, which was a huge struggle in itself.  There were so many Irishmen in America, that there were signs to not hire anyone Irish.  So, think about this, what is your family history that you are reliving today?  This is what you have to clear and heal. This is the block that is stopping you.

The Sabian symbol for this Full Moon is, “A woman, filled with her own spirit, is the father of her own child.”  This Sabian symbol represents balance and unity within the self.  It could easily read, “A man, filled with his own spirit, is the mother of his own child.  We must balance the masculine, feminine, and child within us.  They are one.  That is why many religions talk about the three spiritual entities.  In Catholism, it is the Father, the Son and the Holy Ghost, Mother, the Father and the Child.  They are one and the same.  Meditate on that energy this week.  This is where your power comes from.

The card that I pulled for this week is from Doreen Virtue.  “Gentleness.”  Archangel Sandalphon: “Be very gentle with yourself at this time. Surround yourself with gentle people, situations, and environments.”
