Weekly Energetic Update 4.7.25

Happy last day of Mercury Retrograde, and happy last week of Venus Retrograde!! We are finally getting some reprieve from the retrograde fog and madness, and it couldn't come soon enough! After last week's startling but sluggish week, this week is giving the vibe of shut up and drive. It is time to put your money where your mouth is, and the Aries of it all is waiting for a comeback to disrupt the calmness Pisces provided last week. Before that happens that happens, we have a full moon that promises to blow up some relationships in polar ways. Be prepared for a peaceful week leading to a pivotal full moon weekend!

Energy as of Monday

Monday is a little easier this week as Mercury goes direct after its 3 weeks in retrograde, marking a much-needed shift that clears the misunderstandings we've had over the past few weeks. Many of us may have felt like we were speaking through a fog or living in one. Communication will continue to become better between ourselves and others. As always, the shadow period of Mercury retrograde will still leave some of this planet's themes lingering but overall better communication is on the rise!

We are still feeling extra bright going into this week as well with the Moon still in Leo through Tuesday. This allows the collective to bask in their glory a little extra and gives some much-needed confidence to keep the momentum going forward. As we near our Full Moon in Libra we will need to balance our confidence with logic though and use discernment to get the full power of what the moon has to offer. The Moon's energy will be extra potent leading up to the weekend so be prepared to feel a little extra neurotic and nitpicky before the need to balance it all out.

New to this Week

Most of this week is going to feel the same, as the energy continues to build to our Full Moon Weekend, where Venus goes direct. We will have time to reflect on any last-minute relationship & financial goals we have and any areas that we need to tackle in order to not repeat the same cycles again. With the Nodes in Pisces & Virgo, the collective as a whole will continue to have to reflect on these different lessons and choose a different path than they normally would. Old ways of doing things aren't going to serve you for much longer. Be open to new ways of doing things. With the North Node in Pisces, the time for idolizing others is over and it's time to do the inner work. Outside validation is not something you want to be chasing for the foreseeable future, so make sure your relationships aren't built on trying to impress others by what you have or what you are doing. If you feel gross inside it doesn't matter what the outside looks like.

The Full Moon in Libra on April 12th into the 13th highlights the significance of balance in our connections. Libra, governed by Venus, underscores the need for harmony in our interactions. Use this full moon to assess your relationships: Are you giving and receiving equally? Are you feeling appreciated by those around you? Venus going direct this weekend, April 12th, will also make all the answers to these questions much clearer! If you have been thinking about dumping that man you started dating at the beginning of March, this is why. During Venus and Mercury retrogrades, we see the most couplings and uncouplings. With both planets still being in Pisces we will have a little extra dreaminess around our relationships at first but don't let that distract you from the signs and signals the universe has been shoving at you. This also goes for friendships and work relationships. Pay attention to the people you interact with daily and pay attention to how they treat you. You will start to see some patterns that have been missed. f

How to Maximize This Week's Energy

As always during the full moon energy, it's about releasing and honing in on what you desire most. It is right before the reaping where the intention is the highest. If you want to make the most of the week focus on this:

• Have Heartfelt Conversations

  • With the influential astrological patterns at play this week, engaging in open and honest discussions is crucial. Approach conversations with authenticity, letting your true feelings come through. Whether addressing your emotional needs or simply connecting with loved ones, sincerity can lead to deeper connections.

• Revisit Old Emotional Patterns

  • The unique setup of Venus retrograde offers a chance to examine old emotional patterns. Reflecting on past relationships can reveal important lessons. For instance, if you find yourself struggling with trust, consider how previous experiences may shape your current viewpoints. Understanding these patterns can empower you to build healthier connections in the future.

• Focus on Venus & Libra themes

  • Prioritize beauty, balance, and self-worth. Reflect on relationships and refine what love and value mean to you. Create harmony through art, music, or soothing environments. Libra is ruled by Venus, so this weekend has the potential to be very harmonious if you know how to balance what needs to be tended to.

Focus on fostering harmony in your relationships. Take time to acknowledge the strengths of those close to you. A simple compliment or expression of gratitude can enhance connection. Leading with empathy can create a positive cycle, inspiring others to reciprocate.

Navigating Relationship Harmony

This week invites us to explore our emotional landscapes and relationships with mindfulness and clarity. With Mercury now direct and Venus almost out of retrograde, it is an ideal time to reassess what we genuinely value in our connections. This means on all levels. As a society, we live and die by who we are connected to. We are all part of a community in some way shape or form and for the collective health, we must decide to hold our fellow collective members accountable for how they show up to the table. This is the week to see who at the table needs to rise to the occasion or rise to be removed.

The upcoming Full Moon in Libra serves as a reminder that achieving balance in our relationships takes intention and effort. By applying the advice shared in this post, you can effectively navigate the week’s energies. Take a moment to breathe deeply, reflect, and allow the cosmic energies to guide you toward greater self-awareness and improved relationships.

Until next time,

xoxo
