Speaker 2 (00:27):
Hi.
Speaker 3 (00:27):
Everyone, welcome to your Astrological Energy. I'm your host, Carmen
Turner Shot and this is a show about astrology, spirituality
and energy and we are here to talk about the
astrological energies and forecasts for April twelve through April eighteen.
And I'm really excited to have two of my friends
(00:49):
from the United Kingdom with me today, Caroline Lynch and Merlin,
And they're both astrologers in the UK and we've been
they've had me on their show before and we've partnered
on some things in the past. So welcome Caroline and
Merlin to the show.
Speaker 4 (01:09):
Hi.
Speaker 2 (01:10):
It's thanks for having us absolutely.
Speaker 3 (01:14):
I mean, we know we all love talking astrology, and
so a lot of the listeners could be newbies, you know,
they may not be astrologers and they're tuning in just
to kind of you know, get the energy update of
what's going on, and you know, I've been telling them
the past couple of weeks we've had so much Aries
energy going on with it being Aries season here and
(01:39):
you know, we know the sun is still in Aries
until April nineteen, it'll go into Taurus. But right now
we are in Airy season and we had a you know,
Mars is and Aries and then on the fourteenth this week,
Mercury goes into Aries and on the seventeenth we've got
a new moon in Aries. I thought, my gosh, what
(02:02):
do you guys think about all this Eries energy and
how it affect us this week?
Speaker 4 (02:08):
Yeah, I mean, I think it's really going to give
us a burst and injection of that fresh start feel
that Aris gives that spring of life, new life so
clears out the cobwebs, particularly, I think with a new
moon coming in on that level as well, and the
fact that Mars, you know, Mars is in his own sign,
(02:31):
that really kind of pushes up the strength of it.
And I think moving from Pisces, it's that kind of
quite sleepier time, isn't it a bit more chaotic? Arias
is all about plowing ahead with action, sometimes not thinking
as well, so more a bit.
Speaker 2 (02:50):
More careful before you look sometimes accident prone.
Speaker 3 (02:54):
Yeah, yeah, yes, that's a good point, guys, because I
was telling people last show, you know, just to be
careful and slow down when you're driving, just be more
not as impulsive, don't road rage, you know, don't get
mad if someone cuts you off. And yeah, just deep
breaths and lay low, you know, and don't react, you know,
(03:16):
because I know I can feel I can definitely feel
this this energy because I think we were in this
you know, like you said, the sleepy Pisces energy that
was like kind of daydreaming and thinking about all these
things we want to do, and now it's like we're
doing it, you know, and it's like go, go go,
you know, it's like, oh, okay, what's happening.
Speaker 4 (03:36):
You know, it's very much.
Speaker 3 (03:38):
Yeah, it's like unsettled. I mean, it's just this unsettling
like you know, I can feel the tension in the air.
I just can feel it, you know. And I'm stine.
Speaker 2 (03:50):
Another thing that's happened. I've noticed when Neptune entered Aries,
a lot of things kicked off. Yes, I'm I'm going
to be there for quite a few years. Isn't he she?
And this it was one hundred and thirty five years ago,
since it was last year, and lots of changes happened
all those years ago, and we can expect anticipate more changes,
(04:15):
but particularly areas being ruled by Mars, which is the
god of war. So we can anticipate some strangeness going
on globally in regards to how people interact with each
other and countries interact with each other or not, So
that kind of change may occur.
Speaker 4 (04:31):
And I'm thinking also oil, is that a kind of
Neptune and domain somewhat?
Speaker 2 (04:37):
Yeah, it could be. Couldn't it be an underneath something?
Speaker 4 (04:39):
Yeah, it's sort of fathoms liquid. It's a form of liquid,
and that's certainly a talking point at the moment. And
the fact that we're talking about restrictions. That's Saturn because
there's quite steelium in areas in early degrees the moment Saturn, Mars, Mercury, Neptune. Yes,
(05:00):
So Neptune introduces the confusion as well, what's going on? What?
So although it's aries and it's like this arrow pointing
forward in action, there is that kind of uncertainty that
comes with it as well, or maybe our imaginations can
get the better of us.
Speaker 2 (05:17):
Yeah, imagination, Yeah, fantasy perhaps.
Speaker 4 (05:20):
And the fact that Aries Mars itself is thwarted by Saturn.
There's a great need for So although we might have
the energy in the green light to go ahead with things,
there is some red tape. It feels it's kind of
just making us aware of doing it the right way.
Speaker 2 (05:44):
You know.
Speaker 4 (05:44):
There's quite a lot, quite a lot going on in
that section.
Speaker 3 (05:50):
Eies Neptune and Earies Mars and Earies Mercury and Eares.
And now there's new moon in Eeries I think, you know,
on the on the seventeenth, let's see here, that's gonna
be pretty intense, you know. And I always tell everybody
with the new moon, you know, it's a time to
you know, manifest, you know, and tap into your dreams
(06:15):
and your goals and and you know, write your affirmations
down and and release and visualize, you know, and and
this is the time to manifest in this new moon.
And I tell you this is this is to me.
I feel like this is like you know, Areas is
go getter energy. So it's like they make things happen
and take action. I think we could really manifest some
(06:36):
good stuff right now, if we really put our.
Speaker 4 (06:40):
This yeah, yeah, it's an intense focal point, isn't it. Yeah,
putting action into.
Speaker 2 (06:49):
Place, yeah, real shop objects like arrows, don't they sharp arrows?
Speaker 4 (06:58):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (06:59):
Absolutely? And do you guys, do you guys feel like
you know there's more we need to be a little
careful about, you know, using not like cutting ourselves driving,
you know, yeah, I always I don't want to scare you,
but we do need to kind of get people up about.
Speaker 4 (07:17):
This right, proceed with caution, you.
Speaker 2 (07:20):
Know, don't take anything for granted, and bearing mine areas
can be accident prone, yes, yes, absolutely.
Speaker 3 (07:31):
You know they like to go fast, you know, and
so I think we're all feeling that, you know, we're
feeling this pressure to go, go, go, or move faster quickly,
and and we may not get used to that if
we don't have areas in our birth chart. You know,
this isn't If you don't have arees and not comfortable
or understand areas energy, this can feel really strange right now,
(07:51):
right yeah, for a lot of people like why am I,
Why am I irritable? Why am I losing my tipper?
Why am I so assertive? Right now? And just people
what I want, what I think. You know, people have
been kind of more vocal about their needs, you know,
because there is yes, I am you know, it's about
what they want, right me.
Speaker 2 (08:11):
Yes, that's right, I'm right, you're wrong kind of attitude,
especially when Mars enters.
Speaker 4 (08:17):
Yeah, like you say, that's the war thing. And the
last time Saturn was in Saturn, sorry that Neptune. That
the American Civil War.
Speaker 2 (08:30):
Eighteen sixty one, eighteen seventy five.
Speaker 4 (08:34):
So that was relevant. And yeah, just very much to
do with anything pioneering, isn't it. I think with Aris
as well, and not being afraid to take a bold
leap forwards.
Speaker 2 (08:48):
Yes, the risk. Yes, yes, it's true. I mean people
are in the military often have various aspects, so they
have that courage, don't know, bravery, that's true. That's true.
Speaker 3 (09:02):
Yeah, I mean I were I have an Aries, Moon
and Jupiter and kin I know, right, and and I
got all these trands. It's you know, hitting me and
my iron return and Aries is right on my Moon
and Jupiter. You know, it's like, oh my god. And uh,
but I I did used to work for the Air Force,
(09:23):
so I did work for the military for I wasn't
in uniform. But but I married a guy in uniform,
which is kind of eighth house, you know. But yeah,
you know, I was thinking when you were talking about
Neptune and aries, which we talked about a couple of
shows ago. When uh, when we had that zero degree
Saturn and Neptune conjunction and areas at zero, you know
(09:45):
what's going to happen, right, and and you know the
eclipse and everything, and and if you think about Neptune
is water and ocean and we're going to battle in ships.
A lot of this war has been in the ocean.
Speaker 2 (09:58):
That that street, Yeah, yeah, it was. It's interesting that
it began build up and it began during a retrograde mercury, yes,
which was in places makes sense?
Speaker 4 (10:09):
Yeah, yeah, and water streets, isn't it it's it's yeah.
Speaker 2 (10:15):
And the Titanic, the Titanic sank, when did it really
Neptu was in play?
Speaker 3 (10:21):
Then all wow, that's interesting.
Speaker 2 (10:25):
Mm hmmm.
Speaker 3 (10:25):
So these are unsinkable the unsinkable ship that sunk. I mean,
you can pick this up right. It's it's really interesting,
you know, with all these ships and and battle you know,
areas or there. But it's it's on the water, which
is neptew It's pretty interesting and.
Speaker 2 (10:44):
It isn't it. Yeah, quite the opposite to Libra, which
is about mediation and negotiation and taking time wisdom.
Speaker 3 (10:53):
Yes, and piece of harmony and you.
Speaker 4 (10:56):
Know yea with areas. It's all about asserting survival of
the fittest and the assertion of the sort of self preservation,
isn't it.
Speaker 2 (11:04):
Yeah, I'm stronger than you.
Speaker 3 (11:07):
Yeah, it's kind of crazy. It's crazy. This is why
I love doing the show, to tell people that don't
know anything about astrology that even if you don't believe
in astrology, the energy is affecting you. You know, it's
hit in the world. It's affecting all of us, and
we can see it play out, you know, on TV,
on the news, you know.
Speaker 2 (11:25):
And well something something I've noticed lots of people have
been telling me about how they feel so tired, so lethargic,
so drained. Yeah, and I think it's because of the
mercury and pieces.
Speaker 4 (11:37):
Yeah, yes, and that changes what is it?
Speaker 3 (11:40):
The fifteenth change is this week? The fourteenth? Yeah, it's
mercury and ares. I think that's going to help us.
I think also when it was retrograding Pisces. I was
telling people on a couple of shows ago, like, you
guys are probably feeling tired, And everybody was telling the
same thing, Merlin, like they just don't have energy. They're
(12:02):
wanting to sleep, and they fit still weak. You know,
they're just not motivated to do.
Speaker 2 (12:08):
It, you know, kind of home and even two people's
mentioned about they feel dizzy having vertigos. That, yeah, and
I think that's probably the Mars and Pisces. The head,
isn't it. Yeah, absolutely circulation yeah.
Speaker 3 (12:24):
Wow, you know, and areas aries rules the head too,
those migraines, and be careful with head injuries, you know,
I whenever I have aris. I've knocked my head before
on a I don't even know I did it, knocked it.
Speaker 2 (12:38):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (12:39):
And then I cut myself when we had the big
eclipse in Aries a couple of years ago in my
eighth house. Uh, cut myself, had a car accident and
something else. I had three things happened all within the
day of the day of the clips. Oh, my man,
almost everything on my mac. I think I think we
were talking about then the three of us, like my
mac crash and I lost ten years of everything. Oh,
(13:04):
it was the night of the stinking eclipse and aries. Yeah,
and so this aries energy. I'm a little bit afraid,
a bit a little so I'm like, yeah, not driving.
I haven't left my house, you know. This week I'm
to staying home and I'm not gonna really drive unless
i have to some things like that. But but yeah,
(13:24):
I'm gonna go ahead. We're going Thanks for listening everybody.
We're gonna take a short commercial break and we'll be
right back to talk about the astrology energy that's affecting
us this week.

energy on k MET Radio. I'm your host, Carmen Turner
Shot and I'm here with Caroline Lynch and Merlin, my
astrology friends from the UK, and we have been giving
(14:48):
you the astrological update for the week of April twelve
through eighteen. And you know we've been talking about, you know,
all this this Aries energy that is going on this
week and really in the sky right now with the
sun still in aries, in the moon in full, the
(15:09):
new moon in aries on the fifteenth, the moon will
be in aries on the sixteenth Thursday as well and
into the seventeenth, and it's it's pretty it's gonna be
pretty intense, guys, this new moon energy. I absolutely it's
gonna be really really I kind of like it in
(15:31):
a way because I think it's you know, to me.
Aries likes to motivate, you know, and yeah, they believe
they can do it. You know, they got courage and
they take risk, you know. So I think those are
the positive things we need to tap into. Is the
belief in ourselves that we were resilient and we can
(15:51):
overcome and we were and be confident in taking action
on things that we've been dreaming about during this mercury,
you know, retrograde and pissy stuff that he had going on.
And I think we can really manifest our dream.
Speaker 1 (16:07):
So what are some tips?
Speaker 3 (16:08):
What are some tips you guys would give people that
don't know much about a new moon, you know, and
what they can do to manifest.
Speaker 4 (16:17):
Well, it is a time it's a bit like an
energetic reset. I guess you sort of go into the
dark of the moon and it's like a bit of
a fresh slate. And if you think it's a bit
like sowing seeds, it's the time of beginning to plant things.
You don't actually see the outer manifestation at that point,
(16:39):
but what you're doing is the groundwork, and you're setting
forth with the intentions that you want to bring about
going forward. And then the kind of lunar energy supports
that growth, it supports that expansion. So it's a good
time of resetting things and re grouping. So yeah, and
(17:03):
in Aries, it's very much about that new beginning, that
fresh energy.
Speaker 2 (17:08):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (17:09):
Yes, I would also add, just to slightly change the
subjects on that for a second, the planets currently are
in quite a happy position in the sense that as
we know that you know their exaltation. You know, Sun
in Aries likes to be in Aries, Venus likes to
be in Taurus, Jubiter likes to be in Cancer, Mars
(17:30):
likes to be in Aries. It's its own sign. So
there's there's there's quite a lot of good energy in
the sense I think by about now that we can utilize,
you know, with this new moon energy as well.
Speaker 2 (17:43):
Absolutely, yes, And one of the things to do, silly
thing to say in arees, but slow down, time of
look before you leap kind of thing. You can decide
what you want to do and proceed at your own
comfortable pace to bear their mindlessness.
Speaker 3 (18:00):
Yes, no, that means that's a good tip for I
mean for this week, because you know, I've been seen
I've had people tell me that they just feel like
they're avoiding social or you know, social activities are people
because they tell me, they've been telling me they feel
a little bit on edge, like they feel a little
(18:21):
bit angry. And you know, in Aries can't bring up
anger and passion.
Speaker 2 (18:30):
I suppose Mars and Pisces could be like passive aggressive
kind of anger, yes, hidden under the surface kind of thing.
Speaker 3 (18:38):
Yes. Like water it kind of watered water are are Yeah.
And now now that it's going into Aries, it could
just all come out.
Speaker 2 (18:48):
Maybe massive explosion.
Speaker 4 (18:52):
Yeah, but it tends to be in a health field.
It tends to be more open, you know it for
what it is, and it can be a bit overwhelming
all this areas energy, yes.
Speaker 3 (19:06):
Yes, And and I think you know some of the
strengths of Aries as a sign, you know, those of
you out there that are an Aries sun sign, or
if you know astrology and you know you have planets
and areas, you know some of the To me, I
feel like Aries is one of the most resilient signs
(19:27):
because to me, I mean Scorpio is resilient and strong
as well. But it's it's a little different because I
think Scorpios can hold on to things and and and
dwell where Aries is like I'm over it. I'm going
to the future, like cutting time. I'm going forward. I'm
not looking back. I'm done with you. Okay, you know, Scorpio.
(19:57):
Next year it's like, okay, I'll find someone new because
they like Yeah, it's.
Speaker 4 (20:02):
Like the burst of life. It's like that impetus and
energy to keep going to not just keep going, but yes,
frost forwards and believe in oneself and believe in life
and believe that you're here for a purpose.
Speaker 2 (20:19):
It's like that phrase, you know, that phrase, feel the
fear and do it anyway.
Speaker 4 (20:25):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's very much it.
Speaker 3 (20:28):
Yeah, definitely. So so what do you guys, you know,
what do you think about this Venus being in tours now,
how that's gonna I know it's only going to be
in there till about the twenty fourth of April. But
I think this week people can tap into this Venus
and Taurus because it's in its ruler. It's in a,
like you said, in a really good spot. So in relationships,
(20:50):
you know, what should people be focusing on while Venus
is in tours this week?
Speaker 2 (20:54):
Well, I've seen some really pretty blossoms, flowers and trees,
cherry blossoms especially.
Speaker 4 (21:00):
Yeah, yeah, that's what it's. Yeah, Yeah, it's the very
essentral stuff. So where you've got areas which is in
the now in terms of just existing with Taurus, it's
in the now of the senses, so really getting engaged
with things that you love to eat, nice surroundings, nice touch,
(21:24):
you know, going for a massage, doing things that are
that's sort of good for your senses and your soul,
whether it's the earthy stuff of being out in nature,
you know, that's very much about it. Sits well with
Venus in Taurus, you know, so we're well started to
kind of get into that vibe at.
Speaker 3 (21:45):
The moment, absolutely, yeah, and a bit of.
Speaker 4 (21:49):
A relief from the you know, the hectic areas energy
and because some of it will be a little bit
confusing and frustrating because we've got Neptune and Satin so close.
So although the area's energy is there, there'll be this
great impetus to do stuff, but there'll also be an
awareness of what can't be done or what isn't quite
(22:09):
known and it so it can feel quite overwhelming. So
I think Tauris provides, you know, being in Venus, Venus,
being in Tauris, sorry, provides a bit of respite if
you like, from that the hectic pace.
Speaker 2 (22:24):
Yeah, it's a comfortable yeah. And it's interest as well,
because as as you go through Areas then into Taurus.
This season does seem to be when people tend to
get married, don't they. There'll be lots of weddings around
the place, perhaps even be invited to.
Speaker 3 (22:41):
That is true. I've been noticing that people tell me
they're going to weddings or their friends having a web. Yeah,
and that love is in the air, you know, the
new spring energy of newness and romance you know too.
Speaker 2 (22:55):
And I suppose I mean if you look at like
May for example, when we're into it's like being an
Earth sign. It's the cementing of something, isn't it putting
something down on paper, you know, the signatures, which is
like a foundation, creating a foundation of the marriage or
the institution. So I suppose it's relevant in that way.
Speaker 3 (23:17):
Well, I'm really excited. I'm really excited to have you
guys on the show. And I just I'm excited to
have you, you know, come on every month. You know
we can continue to to do this. I'd love to
