Astro-logical Forecast for Thursday 4/7/2011: Jolly Good News!

Moving into Hour 30 of a Moon void in Taurus (with seven more hours to go) and under the influence of today’s exuberant Sun-Jupiter (cosmic sugar daddy) connection as I write today’s forecast. I’ll use that as an excuse to the dear reader who asked for an astrological take on the upcoming upheavals/departures of certain media figures: Katie Couric, Matt Lauer, et al. Let me address that tomorrow. For now, I’d rather share some jolly headlines in synch with today’s jolly astrological patterns.

Exhibit A: Mercury retrograde is a superb time to clean out closets, get organized and REexamine projects from the past. Just ask the lady who found a big fat winning lottery ticket (from January) in a purse she decided to clean out last week: “Ga. Woman Cleans Purse, Finds Winning Ticket” http://www.nytimes.com/aponline/2011/04/06/us/AP-US-ODD-Purse-Cleaning-Jackpot.html?_r=1&hp That exuberant Sun-Jupiter connection probably helped, too — I would love to see how it influenced her unique horoscope.

Exhibit B: Bold, innovative, pioneering, persistent action aligned with integrity and purity of heart — check out this fun, inspiring manifestation of potential suggested by this New Moon in Aries (see Monday’s forecast for details on the New Moon). “Regina Mayer, German Teen, Teaches Cow to Hurdle” http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/04/06/cow-jump-regina-mayer_n_845617.html And of course it would make news with the Moon in Taurus (the bull!).

Make you smile? Good!

Note your dreams this AM. Nebulous Neptune might take you on some far-out trip as it makes a connection to Moon at 7:32AM EDT, ten minutes after Moon buzzes into chatty, information junkie Gemini. Inspiration and innovative communication?  So use it to further your New Moon agenda. Perhaps there’s someone you haven’t spoken with in a long time who can help you train that cow to jump.
