Aries Horoscope for April 2016

This is a big month, Aries, a continuation of everything that has been happening for you all this difficult and changeful year, and yet as well a new departure. Since the last half of March you have been enjoying the homey feeling of the Sun in your sign. As April comes on, you face the prospect of your ruler, Mars, slowing and then turning to retrograde motion for several months, beginning with his station on April 17th. This brings an introspective attitude that is just right for absorbing the multiple lessons that have been coming your way by cosmic messenger all this year. This has been a time of radical transformation of real-world goals and of even your most basic sense of identity. Now, as you slow down in terms of outer achievement, you have therefore a better chance for increased awareness to really sink in.

As the month begins, you are still riding out the wave of the very powerful set of eclipses from the previous month that strongly hit your chart, and brought both greater consciousness to the changes that you find yourself in the mist of, and also the vision to be able to move beyond previous high water marks of communication and self-expression. You are in fact simultaneously living in two distinct universes at once, being very invested in the experience of your yearly renaissance, meeting the world with a positive vibe and thinking your way through to a brighter tomorrow, while at the very same time caught in a deeper mode of introspection. This last is indicated by the presence of Venus, the ruler of your relationship sector, located in your twelfth solar sector of unconscious process along with Chiron and the Moon's South Node. You might therefore be able to get a peripheral glimpse of issues bubbling below the surface layers of your conscious personality, and it is good to pay attention to these to the extent that you can manage it.

Your arc of development this month spans an interesting spectrum of what counts for you as truth. You are going all the way from a personal and self-interested perspective that ignores the ideas of others, to allowing room for their viewpoints; from concepts of outer achievement to fully private realizations that bring back the gold of inner work to the table of your more conscious understanding. You are called to service, and to creative partnering with others. Inspiration pulls you forward into a new version of yourself that defies previous expectations. You are aware of your depths as well as your heights of achievement. Pondering your future becomes a fully productive enterprise that allows the deeper portions of your psyche to have their say, as the more real of the two sides of your personality.
