SATURDAY, 4/16/2022

The full moon in Libra means we might feel as though we have to be the adult in charge of matters. This means we’ll be more inclined to bury our emotions and be direct with people. Using your power or position to command authority could ruffle a few feathers. It points us towards assessing the relative strength of our alliances — our personal support system — and turns our focus toward understanding how our unique individuality can serve others and not just ourselves.

The Pluto component adds power struggles and intense feelings like jealousy to relationships. You might feel like the only way to make your point is to assert your will. Keep in mind that this isn’t the best way to handle a situation, because others will definitely resist and perhaps act out. The good news is that you can change the dynamic, but only if you’re open to growth and transformation.

DAILY ORACLE

No matter how much you may have lost, or how you have been disappointed, you are called by Snake Spirit to shed the past and practice radical self-acceptance now.

Only by forgiving yourself can you move on, regardless of whether anyone else is ready for healing. When your tender new skin first becomes exposed, you may feel uncomfortable; love yourself and remain vulnerable anyway.

You have been weak, but now you are becoming strong and developing wisdom, and you will do better in the future.

Snake Spirit reminds you that hearts can be so easily wounded; apologies and amends go a long way. Self-forgiveness for your role in what happened can help you heal.

Remember, it is the one who has been wounded who often has the greatest power to help others heal.


LUNAR CALENDAR

4/16/2022 FULL MOON IN LIBRA: You might have a strong need for balance and harmony now. You probably desire to keep things nice rather than venturing into fundamental questions in order not to disturb the peace. You must learn to share your good and bad feelings. Do not be afraid to be who you really are, despite what is expected of you.

4/23/2022 LAST QUARTER MOON IN AQUARIUS: Your relationship with your emotions might be more complicated, because Moon in Aquarius has a strong need for emotional freedom. However, when you are in a group of people, it is easier for you to understand your feelings and free yourself from negative emotions such as fear, anger and jealousy.

4/30/2022 NEW MOON IN TAURUS: Your safety depends on the need for stability, which is not easy to satisfy now. You have to learn to accept change as part of your life. The basic problem is finding your own self-respect in order to ensure that you do not mistakenly seek it in material things. When you accept yourself for who you are, it will become easier for you to find peace and tranquility in the outside world.
