Astro Iris Bright Week wraps up with a New Moon vibe, along with some other cosmic influences.
It kicks off on April 27th (10:30 PM in Bucharest, Romania) in Taurus ♉️, at 7 degrees (46’), rounding up to 8 degrees. The Sabian Symbol for this is “A sleigh without snow.” 🛷
Taurus is ruled by Venus, the queen of beauty, money, pleasure, art and creative expression. It marking the anaretic degree of Pisces ♓️, where it’s manifestation is incredibly powerful. Pourpose: channeling energy in alignment with Divine Will, wrapping up her transit through Pisces responsibly, thanks to her connection with Saturn and the North Node. After this, Venus moves into Aries, bringing passion, initiative, and determination. The message? Love authentically, or Venus might call you out.
From my perspective, this moment feels deeply divine and far from random. Especially since the sky is also hosting a potentially intense aspect: Mars opposite Pluto, the rulers of Scorpio ♏️. Scorpio dives into transformation, hidden depths, fears, and obsessions. This opposition can stir up powerful manifestation, divine love, and razor-sharp intelligence and intuition—qualities that can either cut deep or be true blessings. There’s a divine force pushing us toward our highest good, individually and collectively, whether we’re ready or not.
Mars and Pluto’s opposition creates dynamic aspects with both the Moon 🌙 and the Sun 🌞. We can use this energy to turn ambition or stubbornness into intentions for big wins down the road—wins tied to financial and material values, property, Earth’s resources, and our relationship with them. How much do these things define us? How much power do we give them? Are we emotionally attached to money or possessions? Can we take control of them instead? Over the next six months, we’ll start seeing signs of where this is headed.
Taurus also hosts Uranus, the planet of unpredictability and cutting-edge tech, which is in a supportive aspect with the North Node, Saturn, and Venus in Pisces. My advice? Stay open to rapid changes. We need to take responsibility for what we’re given and use resources with gratitude. The results will blow us away in the best way.
The Sabian Symbol of this degree suggests we need to rethink how we use resources. It’s about giving them a new shape, purpose or function. How do you use a sleigh without snow? How can we adapt it into something useful without wasting energy? This symbol screams transformation and it’s starting now—individually in the house host by Taurus from our natal charts and collectively in areas like finances, material values, resources, land, and territory.
The Ascendant for this moment is in Sagittarius, the adventurer and explorer, with its ruler in opposite Gemini. We might feel flooded with conflicting info, maybe even mentally overwhelmed. Be careful what you take in—not everything you see is true. Explore information through your own understanding and avoid forcing your views on others. What we believe during this time will amplify, so watch out your beliefs. If they no longer fit who you are, swap them for new, vibrant ones (Sagittarius style).
As this week ends, take a moment to reflect: Are you truly satisfied with your territory, finances, material life and creativity? If so, keep chasing your dreams. If not, this New Moon is the perfect time to transform something for the better—set new material goals or rethink your relationship with money and possessions. Set a clear intention and hand it over to the Universe.
Dream big and make it happen! 🫶🦋✨
