2:25am: Mercury re-enters Aries

Let’s pick up where we left off, when Mercury was last in Aries, retrograde, at the end of March. What conversations (in person or over text/email) were you having that have dropped off, or are in need of a resolution? What emotions, reactions, and/or thoughts have you processed enough to be in a space to activate Action Mode for? Mercury re-entering Aries is going to help us find our voice and, perhaps more important than ever, find our fight.

12:10am: Mercury in Aries conjunct Neptune in Aries (0*)

I mentioned this on the Call Your Coven April forecast as a day to watch for. The inaugural Mercury-Neptune conjunction in Aries in our lifetime witnesses the birth of How the Dream Will Be Communicated.

As I’ve meditated on this moment, two iconic, and wildly different, pieces of American literature have come through: Gil Scott-Heron’s 1971 “the revolution will not be televised” and Abraham Lincoln’s 1863 Gettysburg Address. So obviously, I had to check both charts.
