Aquarius Horoscope for April 2013

This is a fascinating, difficult and ultimately rewarding period for you, Aquarius. You have been through a confusing time of reorientation. Informed by the reflective stance that you have been taking lately regarding inner priorities, you are beginning this month to spring forward into renewed action. Your real-world focus is amazing right now, and you are also beginning to trust that inner guidance could become an immense factor for you as you explore the full range of your possibilities. Working within the framework of consensus thinking is one thing, perhaps not truly satisfying, while putting your shoulder to the wheel in support of what you fully believe in, down to the ground, might yet be tentative. This month constitutes a time of experimentation and intense learning, when some of the answers that you seek begin to swim into view.

As the month begins, your communication is sizzling, coupled with a higher mind approach that comes from somewhere inside you that is perhaps only partly known. You can learn a lot by paying close attention to the messages that you are creating through one form or another, and as well to the responses that you receive. Your ultimate intention is to make better peace with yourself in interior realms as well as outer, and that a marriage of these is the result so that your real-world presence is coupled with your soul-purpose agenda, as you are beginning to understand it.

With Saturn occupying your sector of career and professional life for several months now, you have been in a very active place lately with your presence in terms of outer world visibility and achievement. It is not only in monetary terms that the rewards are there for you, and you may be tempted by the attention that you have been receiving to keep your thought process more or less in line with what your public or your organization expects. It is important that you give equal attention to what you, as an individual, require of yourself, and how you see your process unfolding. This process itself might exhibit some new characteristics lately, as the interactions between these heavy-duty outer planet archetypes continues to heat up, and to evolve.

In particular, you are paying closer and closer attention to your inner world and its messages. Just as the iceberg has its being for the most part unseen, with nine tenths of its substance below the surface, so, too, does your personality keep itself largely out of the sight of your conscious understanding; it is a common mistake to think that that unseen part simply does not exist. This hidden part of your personality is however becoming more and more prominent in your thought process, since the Uranus-Pluto square is drawing nearer, implying new-found understanding leading to transformation, and because Pluto is itself located in your sector of dream imagination and inner work.

As you continue to explore your depths, and to reach out for a different sense of a more inclusive identity that takes both inner and outer into account, you find that there is more to your characteristic behavior than you realized. You win when you open your inner perspective and at least half close your literal eyes. Then watch as what you hold inside yourself continues to rise to the surface; to a crescendo of meaning.
