The Space Between Chapters: Today’s Astrology + A Message from Spirit

April 2, 2025 | Energy Update

Hey friends,

If you’re just finding me for the first time—welcome! I’m Laura, a psychic medium and astrologer who blends intuition, cosmic insight, and real-life experience into everything I share here at Northern Light Lotus. I see astrology as a tool to help us better understand ourselves—not just who we are, but where we’re headed and why things might feel the way they do right now.

Let’s talk about today’s energy because… wow. It’s got layers.

The vibe today:

slow clarity,

gentle truth,

and quiet breakthroughs

We’ve got a Gemini Moon sitting next to Jupiter, which means your thoughts might be moving fast—but underneath all that mental movement, something real is trying to come to the surface.

A moment of truth, a feeling you can’t ignore, or maybe just a quiet little nudge from within saying,

“Hey… this matters.”

This is the kind of day where your emotions and intuition are quietly working behind the scenes. Spirit is speaking—just not always in words.

At the same time, we’ve got the Sun in Aries, which usually brings fiery “let’s go” energy. But here’s where things get interesting—

Mercury, Venus, Saturn, Neptune, and the North Node are all retrograde or sitting in Pisces at the top of today’s chart.

That’s a lot of deep, dreamy, slow energy affecting how we think, love, make choices, and envision our future.

So if you’re torn between wanting to launch into something new and feeling like your body and soul are saying, “not quite yet,”—you’re not alone.

This is the in-between.

The sacred pause.

The moment where you re-feel what you really want before you move forward.

Healing, self-compassion, and checking in with yourself

Mars in Cancer is helping you protect your peace today. You might feel more emotionally sensitive—or just less willing to do things that don’t feel aligned anymore. Trust that.

At the same time, Chiron in Aries could stir up old wounds around confidence, independence, or not being seen for who you really are. If you’re feeling raw, irritable, or unsure—it doesn’t mean you’re off-track. It just means something inside you is shifting.

Sometimes the healing looks like not forcing it.

Sometimes it looks like choosing softness when you used to armor up.

This energy reminds me of the Two of Wands

The Two of Wands is that quiet moment before a big decision—the space between comfort and growth. The version of you who’s standing at the edge, looking out, feeling something new pulling you… but not rushing it.

That’s today.

You don’t need to take a big leap.

You just need to be honest about what you’re leaning toward—and trust that clarity will follow.

You’re not stuck. You’re being more thoughtful now. And that’s growth.

Take a deep breath—retrogrades are wrapping up soon

If things have felt foggy, slow, or emotional lately, it’s not just you.

We’re in the thick of Mercury and Venus retrograde, which has been bringing up old thoughts, past relationships, creative re-evaluations, and truth-telling moments.

The good news?

Mercury retrograde ends April 7

Venus retrograde ends April 12

So take a deep breath.

Relief, clarity, and forward momentum are coming soon.

For now, just be where you are—and trust that’s enough.

A soft reminder from the universe:

“You’re not behind. You’re becoming. And even in the pause, your soul is moving.”

Let the day be gentle.

Let your thoughts breathe.

Trust that the next step will reveal itself when you’re ready—and maybe even before that.

Now that we’ve looked at today’s energy on a collective level, let’s zoom in a little.

This isn’t a day for big leaps or dramatic revelations—it’s a day for quiet shifts, soul whispers, and the kind of inner growth that doesn’t always make headlines but changes everything over time.

Each sign is feeling this energy a little differently, based on how today’s astrology interacts with your chart. Below, I’ve shared what’s quietly shifting within you—and a message from Spirit to support you through it. I’ve also paired each sign with another that might offer a fresh perspective or mirror something important back to you.

Let these messages land however they need to. You have a whole chart, not just your Sun sign—and sometimes, it’s your Moon, Rising, or a dominant sign in your personality that takes the lead. So if one of the other signs resonates more today, trust that it’s speaking to a part of you that’s asking to be seen.

Here’s what the universe is gently nudging you to notice today…

⸻

Aries

What’s shifting: You’re learning that leadership doesn’t always mean action. Sometimes, it means listening. With Chiron in your sign, old wounds around independence and needing to “do it all alone” are softening.

Spirit says: “You don’t have to prove your strength by carrying the weight of everything. Let someone support you. That’s not weakness—it’s growth.”

Lean into: Cancer – They remind you that true courage includes feeling. Their emotional depth can help you slow down and reconnect to your inner world.

⸻

Taurus

What’s shifting: Your relationship with community is evolving. You’re rethinking who you trust, who gets your energy, and how to show up without losing yourself. The Pisces stellium lights up your soul tribe and your vision for the future.

Spirit says: “Let go of the ones you’ve outgrown. You don’t need to explain your expansion to those who want to stay small.”

Lean into: Pisces – They’re flowing through the very lessons you’re facing. Their ability to release and trust the unseen can help you loosen your grip on what no longer fits.

⸻

Gemini

What’s shifting: You’re seeing your role in the bigger picture. With the Moon and Jupiter in your sign, you’re waking up to how much influence you actually have—but also where your voice has been scattered or stretched too thin.

Spirit says: “Speak from truth, not performance. You don’t need to be everything to be seen.”

Lean into: Sagittarius – Your opposite sign can help you zoom out. Their big-picture thinking can remind you not every question needs an immediate answer.

⸻

Cancer

What’s shifting: Your beliefs are changing. You’re realizing that certain dreams, spiritual paths, or “rules” you’ve clung to no longer reflect where you’re going. Mars in your sign is helping you take emotional initiative—with boundaries.

Spirit says: “It’s okay to leave behind the version of yourself that needed to play it safe.”

Lean into: Capricorn – Their grounded clarity can help you move from emotional reaction into aligned, calm action. They can also show you how to commit to what you’re becoming.

⸻

Leo

What’s shifting: You’re being called into emotional depth, especially around trust and letting people really see you. The Pisces stellium is stirring up deep healing, while Chiron in Aries reminds you that vulnerability is powerful.

Spirit says: “Your softness won’t dim your fire. Let someone into your world—you’re safe to be held.”

Lean into: Scorpio – Their comfort with intensity can help you stop guarding your heart. They see through masks and remind you: you’re worthy, even in your rawness.

⸻

Virgo

What’s shifting: You’re reworking how you show up in relationships. The Pisces planets are sitting directly across from you, asking you to balance care with clarity—and release your grip on needing things to make sense.

Spirit says: “Not every connection has to be logical. Let yourself feel it, even if it doesn’t fit your old framework.”

Lean into: Pisces – They can teach you the art of emotional surrender. Instead of fixing or analyzing, just let yourself be with what’s rising.

⸻

Libra

What’s shifting: You’re clearing emotional clutter in your routines and daily life. Pisces energy is dissolving old patterns that used to keep you “on track” but now just feel heavy. Mars in your career zone is pushing you to choose purpose over perfection.

Spirit says: “Your joy matters. Stop organizing your life around burnout.”

Lean into: Taurus – Their ability to savor life’s small pleasures can remind you that slow, steady pleasure is a worthy goal—not a luxury.

⸻

Scorpio

What’s shifting: You’re reconnecting with creativity, joy, and self-expression—but it’s not about performing. The Pisces stellium is helping you remember what lights you up simply because it feels good.

Spirit says: “You don’t have to turn every gift into a job. Create for the love of it again.”

Lean into: Leo – They’ll mirror your depth back to you with playfulness. Let their unapologetic creativity inspire you to stop filtering your light.

⸻

Sagittarius

What’s shifting: Home, family, and emotional roots are coming into focus. This isn’t just about where you live—it’s about what makes you feel safe. The Pisces energy is helping you let go of old roles and outdated survival modes.

Spirit says: “You’re allowed to create a home that feels like peace—not performance.”

Lean into: Gemini – They offer curiosity where you tend to bulldoze forward. Let them help you ask better questions about what you really need emotionally.

⸻

Capricorn

What’s shifting: The way you think and communicate is evolving. You’re letting go of needing to always be composed, clear, or right. The Pisces planets are softening your mental world so you can speak from the heart more freely.

Spirit says: “You’re not here to be perfect—you’re here to be real.”

Lean into: Cancer – Their emotional honesty can remind you that vulnerability isn’t weakness. You don’t have to carry it all in silence.

⸻

Aquarius

What’s shifting: Your values and your relationship to money are being rewritten. But deeper than that, it’s about how you value yourself. The Pisces stellium is asking: Are you truly honoring your worth, or just surviving?

Spirit says: “You don’t have to earn your enoughness. You already are.”

Lean into: Virgo – Their ability to tend to what matters (without the need to impress) can ground you in self-worth without overthinking.

⸻

Pisces

What’s shifting: Everything. This Pisces stellium is in your sign—it’s your moment of spiritual reset. You’re shedding lifetimes of people-pleasing, shape-shifting, and silent sacrifice. This is your soft revolution.

Spirit says: “You don’t have to disappear to be loved. Stand in your truth, even if it shakes things up.”

Lean into: Aries – Their boldness might feel scary, but it’s exactly the energy you need to claim your truth unapologetically. Let them remind you: you’re allowed to take up space.

We’ve explored how the energy is moving through each sign today—

but now I want to share something Spirit is offering for all of us, collectively.

After sitting with the astrology, tuning into the energy, and letting it all land… I pulled a card to help us understand what this moment is really about on a soul level.

And of course, it aligned perfectly:

A Message from Spirit: Time to Go

The card that came through today is Time To Go from the Wisdom of the Oracle deck by Colette Baron-Reid.

This card is all about endings, completions, and that sacred moment between chapters—when you’ve outgrown something, but the new path hasn’t fully formed yet.

And wow… doesn’t that echo everything we’ve been feeling?

There’s a quiet power in this moment. You might not have all the answers, but you know something is done. Maybe it’s a version of yourself. A dream that’s shifted. A connection that doesn’t feel the same. A role, a routine, a chapter that has run its course.

This isn’t destruction—it’s release.

Spirit is asking you to trust that if something is leaving, or fading, or feeling like it no longer fits, it’s not because you’re doing something wrong.

It’s because you’ve learned what you came to learn.

You’ve walked the path as far as it could take you.

And now… it’s time to go.

Whether this is about a relationship, a job, a goal, or a mindset—this card is your gentle nudge to stop trying to reattach yourself to something that’s already served its purpose. Let it bless you on its way out. Something even more aligned is waiting—but you can’t carry the old with you.

Spirit wants you to know:

“You lose nothing and gain everything when you surrender to what’s ending. You are not being left behind—you’re being led forward.”

Take this message into your day. Let it land where it needs to.

And if you’re in that strange space between the old and the new…

You’re not alone. That’s exactly where the magic happens.

⸻

Closing Reflection

If you’re in a season of transition—whether it’s loud and clear or quiet and confusing—know that Spirit is walking with you.

You’re not late.

You’re not off-track.

You’re simply in the space between stories, and that space is sacred.

Let yourself feel what needs to be felt. Let something go if it’s ready. And remember, even if all you do today is breathe and trust the unfolding—that is more than enough.

If today’s message spoke to you,

I’d love to invite you to join my community, where I share daily support, cosmic check-ins, and real-time reminders that you’re never walking this path alone. And if you’re craving more personalized guidance, you can book an intuitive session or an astrology reading with me anytime—I’d be honored to support your journey.

I’ll be back in the community tonight with more supportive content to help you wind down and integrate today’s energy.

And I’ll meet you right back here tomorrow with fresh insights and the astrology of the day.

Until then, trust yourself.

Trust the timing.

And trust the quiet pull toward something new.

With love,

Laura
