Hello, everyone. This week will be really interesting, with lots of Venus and Mercury influence, the Full Moon, and of course Passover and Easter. I’ve not seen this before: Venus, relating, and Mercury, communicating, so strongly featured in one week. I can’t wait to see it unfold.
Monday
Monday gives us our first Venus aspect of the week. This is Venus’ last day in the sign of Aries, where she’s willing to fight like a warrior-goddess. However she sweetens with an aspect to Neptune and so is open to letting others share the field. Invite the people around you to a session of unbridled creativity and just see where it goes.
A few hours later is the Full Moon. Just as the Sun shines fully on the Moon, light shines on your employees and customers and you see their point of view. That’s good. Their insights balance your own and everybody wins.
Wednesday
Wednesday is a really interesting day. First, Venus enters Taurus which she rules and loves. This brings out her earthy side and she’s ready to focus the creative urges of the last month into material form. Begin to take your sketches into production, but proceed cautiously. Saturn is also on the scene and, with Saturn retrograde, you may run into problems with partners backtracking or pulling their support just when you need it.
Neptune is also supporting Mercury today. Inspiration comes in from far afield. Just be sure you’re ready to capture it as it may be fleeting.

Friday
On Friday, Mercury follows Venus into Taurus. With Mercury in Taurus we turn our attention from inspiration to nuts and bolts. Time to get practical in the physical world, using “atoms rather than bits,” as Chris Anderson coins the phrase in the Wired article, “The New Industrial Revolution.”
Your partners may not be ready to turn their attention to the practical, but that will soon pass. Remember, we’re all learning lessons in relating these days with Saturn in Libra and sometimes conflict precedes cooperation.
Saturday
There’s likely to be a clash today with Venus in square aspect to Mars. Venus in Taurus wants to focus on physical and material stability. Mars in Leo wants to conquer the competition. You may have to referee a stand-off between design and production, or operations and finance. Or the conflict may be entirely within yourself. There’s likely to be passion; use that energy to find the compromise position.
Sunday
Venus is in good aspect to Pluto today and this is great for transforming creative ideas into material form and MONEY. Alliances have been formed this week that bring renewal to our businesses and today’s aspect brings these relationships to light. Couldn’t happen on a better day!
Have a lovely week and as always, let us know in the comments how it plays out.
Don’t forget. If you have an astrology-related business question (or a business-related astrology question) send it to me at ellen@astro4business.com. I’ll answer it in these posts, anonymously of course, and we can all learn from each other’s experiences. I look forward to it! Have a question now? Email it and let’s get started!
