Happy New Year!
The astrological year begins at the New Moon in Aries each year. The energy for the year is imprinted on this day and carries themes throughout the year. Some of these themes will resonate specifically with each of us. And how these will take effect often have to do with your own chart.
So take a look at the symbols for the year and pay attention to them. If you have your own chart handy, compare it. Are there important conjunctions? Do you know how things impact you?
SUN – 12 ARIES: a flock of wild geese
MOON – 12 ARIES: a flock of wild geese
EARTH – 12 LIBRA: miners are emerging from a deep coal mine

In addition to being the energetic set for the New Year, it is also something to pay attention to specifically for this lunar month beginning in Aries. And I will specifically call attention to Mercury’s energy.
Mercury will be dancing in 3-way conjunction between a number of plantes and the Sun. Specifically:
April 2 – Mercury-Sun-Earth
April 14 – Mercury-Sun-Venus
April 20 – Mercury-Sun-Mars
April 24 – Mercury-Sun-Saturn
April 30 – Mercury-Sun-Jupiter
So pay attention to the energy as the days arrive.
