You are tumbling into excitement these days, Aries, so that you don't always know which end is truly up. Your inner world is calling out to you from a subtle otherworldly dimension, and you ignore it to your peril, even as you also continue to pay important attention to the normal run of day-to-day commerce and connection. Communication is a big part of what you do right now, and of how you make sense of what you do. You are enjoying the recent steep learning curve, even as you sometimes feel confused by it. You do better when you can throw away any and all preconceptions and simply accept the various happenings, however strange, as the universe speaking to you in all its multiplicity of colorations.
As the month begins, you are meditating within a period of thoughtful and reflective awareness leading up to the New Moon a week away. As you continue mulling over recent events, you remain stimulated by the eclipses of May and the more emphatic collision of revolutionary ideals represented by the extremely active Uranus-Pluto square in your angular houses. You might be attempting yet once again to figure out your life. With your ruler, Mars, now in Gemini, you are thinking deeply and also speaking out concerning your deductions, perhaps journaling, and these activities are quite helpful. Key relationships in your life also provide important perspectives, although more so after this first week has expired.
Over the course of another fairly intense month — with highlighted Saturn located in your intimacy sector and in close aspect to Neptune, therefore even more greatly emphasized — you might find that your connection with important partners seems stuck or on hold, or perhaps subject to extra heavy duty concentration and focus. This could feel troubling, but in another way normal for the current state of your psychological condition. At the same time, the exploration of your own depths, a mystical self-involvement, becomes even more absorbing and leads you to long-lasting lessons regarding who you really are at the deeper levels of your psyche.
Neptune, located in your sector of dream imagination and inner work, speaks powerfully to you as well. Your active imagination takes you down some rather different roads and into interior spaces far removed from the normal run of surface events and personal happenings. With Chiron, the Wounded Healer, also invoked in this same sector of your solar chart, in some very significant ways you embody the shamanic path right now. This solitary preoccupation with inner truth might seem scary, but it is in your best long-term interest, and is always available to step into and then out of, in slow oscillations, so that you do not feel utterly alienated.
Meanwhile, Uranus and Pluto, in powerful placement in your chart, remain in close square aspect with each other. Uranus is in your first, or identity, sector. The implication is that inspiration will continue to descend upon you in unexpected ways. As Grateful Dead lyricist Robert Hunter puts it, "Once in a while you can get shown the light / In the strangest of places if you look at it right." In collusion with the massive life changes represented by Pluto residing in your career sector, especially if you were born within a few days on either side of the beginning of April, this means that, in fit preparation for the later stages of the this difficult decade, a feeling of delicious excitement and creative trouble descends upon you in order to rock your world. It will leave you both shaken and stirred by the end of the present year.
With transformative Pluto in your sector of career and professional life, perhaps the most profound changes you are currently going through involve the way that you show up in the world and for the benefit of the surrounding society. This is a difficult passage and one that is rendered easier when you can simply surrender to it.
