The Astrological Weather of Spring

By John ‘Tone’ Rosan, Acutonics® Student Intern

Aloha! It’s so good to be able to discuss the upcoming astrological weather with you this month. April sees the Sun move from Aries to Taurus, the Charging Ram into the Obstinate Bull and with the current and upcoming planetary aspects, this is so perfectly attuned this year.

As we begin the month there will be zero planets in retrograde motion. This means full steam ahead through the 12th of April when Jupiter goes retrograde. Definitely consider treatments that aim to replenish, enhance and empower our personal energy stores for those of us who are burning the midnight oil and wrapping up large projects that were begun in the Winter.

 

 

Top Fuel is the ticket here, and there are a couple easy and effective treatments to consider. First would be Solar 7th applying MF Sun to KID 3 and LF Ohm to KID 1. But with the massive stellium* of Moon, Venus, Mercury, Neptune, Chiron and the Sun clustered among the Tropical Zodiac’s Pisces and Aries, there is bound to be some Liver stagnation that will need attending to as well. Besides the ever important exercise that I hope we all have time for, it will be incredibly helpful to do the other Kidney nourishing (and Liver purging) hold from LIV 3 to KID 1. In this instance I would open the Liver channel with Zodiac or Nibiru and balance on the Kidney point with Ohm.

Much of the energy of this stellium opposes a completely vacant Virgo and Libra on the other side of the zodiac. So another important consideration in moving forward, maintaining momentum and right use of will and service is to enhance points pertaining to the Small Intestine, Urinary Bladder and the Du Mai.

Bringing a sense of poise, balance and agility to the Du is a great intention to those who are springing through life like joyful little kids. Just looking at the planets paired up in Pisces gives us easy suggestions on what to bring to the Du Mai. Opening on SI 3 (Back Ravine) and Balancing upon UB 62 (Extending Vessel) bring MF Mercury/Neptune 5th to open and allow for strength and adaptability, then progress to LF Venus/Full Moon 2nd to blend and nourish. Lastly, use MF Chiron/Neptune Tritone to empower and guide.

Another key energetic of April is the opportunity to dissolve old and outdated contracts, and to sever all ties that hold us from moving freely and confidently forward on our paths.

We’ve often discussed SI 11 (Heavenly Gathering) as being a great point to connect to our angelic guides, to bring higher knowledge and to offer feelings of comfort and togetherness. Although I also ask for these guides to arrive and assist at the beginning of each session, it is here that I again call them forth to bear witness and additionally assist in transporting any/all invasive energies and entities to return to their source. I am personally called to suggest using HF Chiron/2X HF Sun 6th forks or chimes for this purpose. Chiron (the lower pitch of the two) acts as an amplifier and bridge to allow the highest angelic energies of the Sun to cross over into this sacred space and to act as a conductor of pure light.

Just up from the Small Intestine point SI 11 is a point called Grasping the Wind (SI 12). It is important to note that this is a meeting point of the Small Intestine, Large Intestine, San Jiao and Gall Bladder channels. It is here that we will assist in the release of those things that no longer serve our highest and best. Since our goal now is to disperse foreign energies and to sever the ties that bind us, I am called to recommend Pluto/Zodiac 3rd or perhaps Pluto/Jupiter 3rd here. Listen to your forks as you are considering this opportunity.

Is something really embedded here? Perhaps consider a less consonant interval like MF Mercury/Chiron 2nd to dislodge something that is stuck. Then once you feel like you’ve “Grasped the Wind” with these handy archetypes, it is time to transport it home. I recommend using the inverse of our earlier angelic invitation by sounding HF Sun1/Chiron 3rd (this time with the Sun being the lower pitch) again using forks or chimes.  

One of the hardest things to manage while healing from separations of this sort is the immediate feeling of emptiness and the need to fill the space. It is much like an addiction (food, drug, habit) in that even though we know something to be unhealthy, we still crave that thing which we no longer have or are allowed to have.

The best thing to replace what was lost however is a healthy and fresh contract with the highest and best for the self. So once this (wind) has been dispelled from SI 12, it is time to honor the alchemy with Ohm Unison to neutralize the fresh and empty vessel. At this time state an intention of personal allegiance that resonates with You fully. Perhaps bring a journal with you into the session so that you (or the person receiving) may re-read the contract at a later date to see how far you’ve come.

Next, it is important to further empower the session by bringing the highest and best to the chest! Having the courage to move forward on a path without the familiar weights holding us back can be ironically daunting! Look how fast you are now! Whoa! In order to stay on the path that is right, we must follow our hearts burning bright! I now offer you Sun/Jupiter Tritone upon REN 17 (Chest Center).

One of the Three Treasures, REN 17 is such a wonderful place to bring this flame, kindling anew the path of the true self! This is to remember how wonderful you are, how expansive your being is, how you are connected to the entirety of the Universe, and how you are a unique and essential star among the Light.

Continuing our great work upon the Three Treasures, let us again bring power and vitality to our core through REN 4 (Origin Pass). I really like the subtle yet powerful wave of release and empowerment that LF Ohm/Pluto Near Unison creates. Follow with Mars/Earth Day 4th for additional personal empowerment.

Last but not least, moving to DU 20 (Hundred Convergences) MF Zodiac/HF Sedna 5th reconnects us to our infinite soul, recalls any misplaced or forgotten personal energy, and resolves the past with the future; allowing transcendence into the current and fully realized moment!

As the Sun moves into the tropical sign of the Bull while the month of April wanes, here we are indeed, slowing down energetically and taking a while to enjoy butterflies, flowers, birds and bees. Earth (Ohm) begins to overtake Ceres, Jupiter (both in Sagittarius) and Saturn, Pluto and Ketu (all in Capricorn) the retrograde cycle of these slower moving planets also brings the rumor of change upon the horizon.

 

The retrograde of Ceres – Jupiter in Sag suggests a time to enjoy nature and the simple beauty that the world has to offer. It is also an opportunity to evaluate and explore our personal truths and values. And as Jupiter reaches opposition with Mars in Gemini, it will be important to measure our words carefully and yet be fearless and childlike in our expression. 

The inevitable retrograde of Saturn – Pluto with Ketu the South Node of the Moon is something that has been brewing like a sacrificial cauldron all month long (and really for several years now). This is a complex opportunity that will last beyond the month and is tied up in the karma and dharma of the Earthbound Collective. My heart-mind sees this as a key moment in overcoming toxic leadership and the dispelling of abusive power trips.

Without going into too much of a tirade here, remember that it is frightening to leave even toxic unhealthy things behind; even when we know we must in order to survive and thrive. So we must be compassionate, yet confident in our ability to shed this outdated, obsolete and toxic paradigm.

I feel like this will be a particularly good time to bring awareness and movement to KID 23 (Spirit Seal), KID 24 Spirit Ruins and KID 25 (Spirit Storehouse). These points are extremely potent and would benefit greatly from something as simple as Ohm Unison. Working these contra-laterally from high to low is the way to go; starting with KID 25 reconnect with original Shen with the intent of clarity; moving into the harmony of letting what is dead die (resolving any false romanticism or unsettled infatuation) at KID 24; ending this process with the intention of speaking clear and from the heart not only to others, but also to self at KID 23.

There is a feeling that more work can be accomplished here. I would also bring in Pluto/New Moon 5th and Pluto/Full Moon 6th for opening and fulfilling. Or in other words: freeing and cancelling!

I would also bring back that Sun/Jupiter Tritone to REN 17 for more encouragement and empowerment.

Clearing of the Dai Mai seems like a good flow here in order to create some space for personal enjoyment, reflection and development. Although we’ve certainly done a ton of self-empowering and expansion throughout this article (and the month), I feel like we deserve a small respite to absorb and recover as our next season begins.

Jupiter/Venus 3rd with Venus Opening GB 41 (Near to Tears) and Jupiter Balancing SJ 5 (Outer Gate) is a great expansive and loosening interval that also brings joy and passion forward.

I also like this same pair of forks on LU 1 (Middle Palace) and LIV 14 (Cycle Gate) in a sequence similar to how you might move through the Four Gates; moving stepwise and/or contra-laterally. This is a great sequence for further harmonizing the Liver, Stomach, Spleen and Lungs. Also remember this one for asthmatic responses or persistent coughs as we adjust to seasonal influences and unsettled energy!

Well, I hope this has brought up some good ideas for your own treatment plans this month. And please do reach out to me via email sometime if you’d like to chat about Astrology, Acutonics or really anything related to Sound and Sound Healing! I would love to hear about some of your own insights and experiences. You know that’s my jam!
