This Week's Moon Transits at a Glance:
Sunday: Virgo - Reap What You Sow Under Virgo
Thursday: Scorpio - Emotions are Strong but Internalized
Monday: Virgo - Reap What You Sow Under Virgo
The Moon is in Virgo from Sunday, April 26, at 9:06 PM EST to – Tuesday April 28, at 5:03 PM EST -
Virgo is the sign of the Zodiac associated with the harvest, a time when months of hard work, dedication and attention to the small things results in practical benefit for all involved. This is a perfect description of the Virgo life. The energy of these days is oriented to hard work, service, and perfecting activities in the material world. Virgo is the sign that gives the most to the world and rarely takes for itself, which inspired my teacher, Judith Hill, to say that, “Virgo’s symbol should be the donkey, not the virgin.” The air has a feeling of order and organization, but there is an underlying anxiety and need to move, mentally or physically. This necessity for movement is in some ways related to the nervous energies and springs forth from a need to accomplish goals, or at least work to move toward their accomplishment. This is a tense energy but also quiet and determined.
This is a waxing trine Moon, and the energy is great for giving a big push to existing projects. Virgo helps with perfecting the details, with an eye towards positively impacting the larger goal of the undertaking. The peak of the full Moon is close! This one is good for organizing and ordering the structures of projects that are already underway; create a plan for completing the project that is easily executable. Give something that you started individually to a team, and they will help work it out before the new Moon, if the time horizon for completing the task is aligned with that time frame. This is a time to create order and organization in different aspects of life; if you do not do so, you may struggle to complete any projects that are not well organized at this time.
Tuesday: Libra - Harmony & Charm are in the Air
The Moon is in Libra from Tuesday April 28, at 5:04 AM EDT to Thursday April 30, at 3:03 PM EDT –
Libra is the sign of the Zodiac represented by a scale, and the Moon's changeable energy is pushed towards the middle in this pleasant and temperate sign. The energy of these days is of balance, poise, and harmony. Things of beauty and art are pleasant attractions these days. Libra is Venus’s social sign (the air signs are social signs), and the energy of the Moon here is one bespeaking one on one interactions. The air has a feeling of friendliness, charm, and companionability. Still, there can be tension under this Moon when opinions vary or judgments must be made. Logic and reason rule these days, but are they objective or subjective? Still, the energy is more soothing and placating than aggressive.
This is a waxing quincunx Moon, and the energy is great for ensuring that any problems preventing the completion of existing projects are resolved or worked out. Libra wants to find a way to make everything equal and to resolve issues, thus its rulership of mediation, aribitration, and conflict resolution. The peak of the full Moon is even closer! Time to use poise and balance to overcome problems and obtain results. Any projects that involve art, music, beauty, and achieving resolution to conflicts are excellent to focus on during this lunation.
Thursday: Scorpio - Emotions are Strong but Internalized
The Moon is in Scorpio from Thursday, April 30, at 2:14 PM EST to Sunday, May 3 at 4:35 AM EST –
Scorpio is the sign of the Zodiac assoicated with long term strategizing and planning, and dedication to completing tasks, particularly ones that are objectively important. This intensity of focus can make Scorpio feel overwhelming and overbearing, unless you are aligned with the results it will achieve. The energy in the air is a bit heavy, sensual, emotionally stimulating; it is a bit like waiting for something important or sudden to happen. Scorpio is fixed water, so the emotional world is prominent but not visibly active; currents flow beneath the surface or freeze. There is usually sensual and sexual energy underlying these Scorpio Moon days as well. These are days that can bring a feeling of intrigue or mystery; there are secrets that need to remain hidden. Things can come to a critical head under the Scorpio Moon.
This is a full Moon, with a lot of intensity. Please be careful as the crime rate and issues with mental health related to obsessions during this Moon will be higher than normal. This can be the big push to ensure that everything is in place to the final outcome of projects that you started during this lunation (back at the new Moon in late Capricorn on January 28, 2026, is good to do under this Moon. Scorpio likes to dig deep, so be sure to check out all the potential flaws or errors, research ways to make it excellent, and start to proceed down the path to conclusion. If tension or friction arises, use your powers of concentration and desire to control energy to smooth them out and move forward.
