Weekly Forecast for April 5-12, 2006 by Ellen Zucker Starting with last week's solar eclipse in Aries, we have awakened from our slumber. It has been a frustrating few months. But finally, finally all systems are go. Now with this morning's Saturn direct station, people are ready to move forward and make commitments. This is good news if you have been in stalled negotiations or are trying to close a sale. Today, on the 5th we enjoy a nice flow of emotional energy as Jupiter, Mercury and the moon form a grand trine in water. It is easy to speak from the heart and know we are being well received. On Thursday (in the early pm in the Eastern time zone), the moon enters Leo. We feel a bit more bombastic. It is wise to consider the feelings of others as we close out the week and head into the weekend. We feel the upcoming Saturn/Pluto opposition which becomes exact on Saturday. If people react strongly to something that is seemingly small, realize it is because they are feeling their authority is being undermined and they have to fight back. If you find yourself reacting this way, step back and take a deep breath before reacting. Instead try to use the energy to clean out the closet or tackle a demanding physical task. This way you'll use the energy constructively. Lastly, there is a possibility when Mars and Pluto conflict, conflict becomes violent. So play it safe and be aware of your surroundings and the people around you. The intensity is dialed back on Sunday when the moon enters Virgo midday. Monday and Tuesday are good days to put your shoulder to the grindstone and make headway on the projects you started a week ago.
