Note from Kelly:
This week has NO Activations – this hasn’t happened in a long while but that doesn’t mean there isn’t movement to co-create with! Mercury Retrogrades and Jupiter enters Aries for the first time in 12-years. Both of these are special indeed! Remember that we are also still in Eclipse Season.
5/1 ~ Venus (relationships) ~sextile~ Pluto (transformation):
This energy deepens all emotions and strengthens bonds & attachments. Friendships & love relationships become much deeper and, sometimes more intense, not to mention any physical, sexual experiences. Being fake or superficial is never possible when Pluto is involved, and because Venus is involved, we’re talking relationships or how you relate in general, so if you are needing to dig a little deeper with someone, you are supported. This energy can facilitate positive transformation in your relationships, partnerships or collaborations.
Taurus/Scorpio energy brings awareness of your deepest values, renewal of your priorities and access to the power to co-create your world. Taurus time (April/May) is an annual opportunity to seed the *Garden* of your life … while Scorpio time (Oct/Nov) brings the annual gifts of power, magic and purification. Working consciously with these energies gives you a chance to truly ground your Highest intentions and bring them into ‘form’ to serve the greater good, which will attract blessings beyond your wildest imagination … *IF* you maintain integrity and do the work! Earth energy requires getting real ~ getting serious ~ and often, getting dirty! It is a chance to co-create, contribute and allow Great Spirit to breathe life into the seeds you plant at this time.
Audio Link to this Post HERE (5-min/mp3) PLEASE NOTE that I have created the audio link above for those times it is easier to LISTEN than READ. Hopefully, you took advantage of the Aries/Mars energy to define, in detail, what it is that you “desire” in various areas of your life. Now you have access…

Note from Kelly:
Ooh wee y’all – pray for me – Mercury Retro is giving me some appearances that I refuse to let be a reality. Bear with me as my communications systems are upgraded! I trust – I trust – I trust! Meantime, I do seem to be receiving and even sending emails but gmail accounts continue to report a problem. But also, feel free to send me emails or re-send anything you think I missed. Also, I will be sending out the Venus Replay and the Olokun Follow Up Replay in the next couple of days. Please be patient as my software is handicapped at the moment and everything is taking extra steps to get done. I really appreciate your understanding as it is also just me – trust me, I am dreaming up the ideal Assistant that loves technology and wants to free me up to strictly be The Creative and the Mystic Mentor. And to that end, I need those of you wanting to do the next Astro 101 Class to sign up asap! This is where you will learn about astrology by using your own chart. We start on May 3rd! All are welcome but we will have a focus on 40-50-somethings – those of you born 1960-1980.
4/17 ~ Mercury (thoughts) ~sextile~ Venus (art & beauty):
This is a great opportunity to beautify your ideas, improve or deepen them so they are expressing more of your unique authenticity. Communication in relationships usually goes well under this influence. This energy also turns your thoughts and ideas toward how you feel and what inspires you with love & beauty. This is a great time to be particularly creative, or do something that activates your own Inner Artist. It is best to keep it light and let go of your mundane burdens just for a time. Pleasure reading, a walk on the beach, a play or museum are all good things to do at some point this week, if possible.
4/10 ~ Mercury (ideas, thoughts & concepts) ~square~ Pluto (rebirth & transformation): This energy is a tough, yet powerful one. Its Highest expression would be to focus on your inner deep-dig, discovery, development & transformation of your own mind & consciousness that happens when these two get together and we are challenged to grow out of comfort zone and into new territory. It enables you to look beneath the surface to some core drives and gain some valuable insights and thus, choose a plan of action based on your findings.
4/4 ~ Mars (energy, desire & action) ~conjunct~ Saturn (structure, responsibility & timing): Any conjunction is an initiation and Mars rules ‘who you are’ and ‘what you want’, while Saturn rules your definition of reality & your physical limits, along with your roles & responsibilities. If you are feeling frustrated, you may need to clarify your desires more, then take tangible, practical steps toward them. Anytime Saturn is involved, it will depend on your personal nature, as some thrive on structure & good boundaries, while others buck the system and want to do it their own way (which causes its own types of conflicts in the world). Sometimes this energy manifests as action being restricted and the anger that follows. You can either be angry and feel restricted, limited and unable to move … or you can see this energy as an opportunity to define the right actions to take and strategically plan to take them when the Universe is more supportive.
As the Sun enters Aries ~ Spring Equinox Initiates a new Solar/astrological year. This is a *Universal* RE-Set Button. Clean Slate. New Beginning. This is an Annual Activation for everyone, but for the Cardinal Family, it can be a little more intense & personal … Aries Initiation ~ Libra Integration ~ Cancer/Capricorn Test/Growth. Everyone has Aries ruling some area of life and this is the area of life that gets activated at this time every year. Do you know your rhythm for this? How do you feel every Spring? Aries energy activates the instinctual draw toward change and new beginnings. Old ways no longer work and you must get out of your comfort zone and experiment with new modes of operating. It’s time to move again, shake off the sleepiness of Winter. It’s an annual Re-Birth that reminds you to honor both the Shadow and the Light, the visible work, done in the Light and often with others … as well as … the invisible work, done in the Shadows, behind the scenes, alone and hidden from view. How would you like to do things differently this year? What aspect of your life, being or environment could use some conscious focus and intentional action?
3/27 ~ Mercury Enters ARIES (until April 10th):
Mercury moving through Aries tends to make us think more instinctively. This is a mixed blessing. On one hand, you can take in a lot of information and easily sort & sift it based on what your immediate needs are but on the other hand, it can make you jump the gun without thinking things all the way through because you are reacting instead of responding. Reacting comes from the Head and Responding comes from the Heart. It is best to use this energy to dig into your own ideas & motivations – WHY do you want what you want? Why are you thinking the way you do? What is motivating your ideas, thoughts & concepts?
