The Venus retrograde has opened a vortex into the past, inviting you to change the way you think of yourself in the present.  It's time for a new mindset. This week you will be changing what you think of yourself, how you talk to yourself, and remembering what you believe about yourself. Jupiter and Pluto just 2 degrees apart brings emotional disruption about world power/politics.

Energy will feel comically strange next week. Venus squaring Neptune in the start of Gemini (and also while Venus is retrograding) opens a conscious wormhole of possible narratives. The new moon on Friday calls for you to be mindful of your feelings. With timelines colliding and disinformation spewing from all sides, only your feelings will guide you through the maze of questions and curiosity. 

This week you will feel through and determine where to invest your time, money and energy in the future. You may commit to a project, job, relationship or manifestation intention. As you move forward to manifest, three planets will move retrograde. Saturn, Venus, and Jupiter will retrograde shift the global energy significantly.  We will look in depth at the Venus Retrograde and break it down for all 12 zodiac signs.

Now that your confidence is coming back, it's time to aim for the bigger things. Your mind will know what you want, but it may take until Wednesday for you to accept it. A full Moon Thursday morning draws a razor sharp boundary between what WAS comfortable and what is NOW comfortable. This sets the stage for life to manifest your way.

This week you complete construction on your new self-worth and personal values. This is the final step to what has been a month of inner ascension out of fears, weaknesses, and old defensive posturing.  Energy calms down considerably, but the feelings from April catch up to you and may require serious nurturing Tuesday and Wednesday. 

This week you build new credit with yourself. The Sun enters Taurus changing the energetic tone from frantic 'n challenging to grounded 'n growing. A test of character comes Tuesday when the Sun squares Saturn in Aquarius. On Wednesday the new Moon in Taurus inspires a new belief about yourself.  This belief grants you a new line of credit and potential. The new 'credit' is exponentially multiplied when the Sun conjoins Uranus next Sunday. 

After 3 weeks of constant growth and building courage, this week your goal is to stay the course. Fear and frustration begins to decline. The Sun squares Pluto and Jupiter to reveal hidden aspects of character and perhaps secrete knowledge. You are detaching from needing the world to make plans. You are rediscovering the core of character.

This week the planet comes out of fear-paralysis and begins to feel a sense of imbalance, injustice, or both. The Full Moon in Libra apexes Tuesday night, shifting humans to make a new pledge to change. There will be three days of aggressive Aries energy and personal tests of strength or faith. Come Easter Sunday, a new vision for the future becomes clear.

This week you come into alignment with a reborn inner strength and conviction.  Mercury is out of shadow. With Jupiter conjoining Pluto all week, unforeseen information or knowledge may alter fate. Saturn in Aquarius brings new-age solutions. The collective conscious "phoenix" will RISE with an entirely new future option to fly towards.

It's a powerful week of change. This week your primary inner ego will be reborn. You will 'wake up' to your old ways of treating yourself and find a new approach that brings new strength and determination. You will find a new way of thinking about yourself and courageously face a fear with yourself that is ready to expire.  By the week's end, the old future will be gone and a new future will be born.
