Aepril's Astrology

The Four Phases: Belly Dance and Moon Magic
Join Aepril for a four-week journey through the phases of the moon.

Each class follows one phase of the lunar cycle, weaving together belly dance technique, expressive movement, and alchemical exploration.

Whether you're returning to movement after time away or deepening your practice, this series invites you to dance with intention, plant what you long to grow, and move with the rhythm of the moon as she seeds, builds, illuminates, and releases.

You'll practice fundamental movement: isolations, layers, turns and traveling steps. You'll learn short combinations that grow each week. You'll work with meditation, ritual, and intention-setting drawn from each phase. No experience necessary, just show up ready to move!

Sept 8 - 29 2026

Recordings available for all classes.

4 Tuesdays, 7 PM Irish time on Zoom.

This class welcomes all genders, bodies and abilities. Movements can be modified.

Your September 2026 astrology forecast:

The month starts slowly. Mars squares Saturn on the 1st

and then the sky goes fairly still until the 10th when we have four events in 24 hours:

Venus enters her exile in Scorpio. She is preparing for next month's retrograde.
Mercury leaves Virgo, leaving precision for beauty.
Uranus the Awakener stations retrograde in Gemini.
The New Moon in Virgo peaks hours after her ruler has left the sign.

The Virgo New Moon at 18 degrees on September 11 is like a single white candle: beautiful in its simplicity, and focused. It has a supporting sextile from Mars in Cancer. A kite formation glides through the sky. You are reminded to trust and let magick do its thing.

On September 18, Chiron reverses out of Ta**us and returns to Aries. Everything the first Ta**us crossing touched this summer is handed back from the physical into fire again. It’s medicinal revisit around who you are and what you claim. I AM.

The Aries Full Moon at 3° on September 26 sits within a degree of Neptune, in fire, opposite a grand trine in air. Aries wants to move. Vivid images and mythic stories arrive with this Full Moon. Her ruler, Mars, is at the last degree of Cancer, in fall, 2 days from leaving the sign. The 26th is for feeling the feelings at full size. The 28th is where it takes action.

The month closes with Mars entering Leo. And Mercury entering Scorpio, joining Venus. Things darken in a dramatic and delicious way!

Key September 2026 transits:

Sept 10: Venus enters Scorpio, Mercury enters Libra, Uranus stations retrograde at 5° Gemini
Sept 11: New Moon in Virgo, 18°
Sept 14: Lilith enters Capricorn
Sept 15: Venus square Pluto, Neptune sextile Pluto
Sept 18: Chiron returns to Aries
Sept 23: Sun enters Libra, autumn equinox
Sept 26: Full Moon in Aries, 3°, conjunct Neptune
Sept 27: Mars square Chiron
Sept 28: Mars enters Leo
Sept 30: Mercury enters Scorpio

The full moon on July 29, 2026 falls at 6° Aquarius, intensified by Pluto, opposite a fiery Leo Sun conjunct Jupiter.

I think of a phoenix 🔥⚡️🌕

This Moon calls up a negotiation with power. How we hold it, where it is felt, what is disclosed, what is kept.

Venus in Virgo squares Mars in Gemini exact. In Virgo, Venus is The Priestess, she brings discernment and devotion, and tends what is worth your care. Mars in Gemini carries the archetype of The Mage, but wants be involved with everything and could scatter power. Their negotiation makes friction, but the conflict is generative magick.

Chiron at zero Ta**us squares the whole configuration, which activates the pain body for healing. Where do you lose power, and how do you reclaim it for our vision for your life and your future?

The Full Moon arrives in Capricorn on June 29.

The Sun sits in Cancer, in the warm waters of home and belonging. Opposite it, the Moon is full in Capricorn: the sea-goat, the bones, the structure underneath lush summer life. At the peak of the season's warmth, she shows you the spine beneath it, what will remain.

This is an initiatory moon. Everything in this chart is cardinal, the modality of beginning, and the wholesky is poised at a starting line. But initiation is not only beginning. It is the climb to a higher level, the threshold into a greater mastery.

And as the Moon comes full, Mercury turns retrograde in Cancer, drawing us back to the source, to lineage, to the instruction left by those who climbed before us. Mars reaches toward Uranus and strikes the spark that gets us moving, and the day after this moon, Jupiter shines golden on the sea-goat's own ascent, rising out of the Cancer waters into the fire of Leo.

Then the Moon herself speaks to each rising sign, naming where you are being initiated, and the knowing that reaches you from those who came before.

How is this initiation finding you?
I'd love to hear in the comments.

The Full Moon in Sagittarius ♐️🌕 on May 31st, 2026 rises nearing Black Moon Lilith, and together they illuminate the you that remains untamed.

This is a full moon about the undomesticated self. The wild knowing that lives in the body before the mind can argue it out of you. Falling on the Gemini–Sagittarius axis, where the curious mind meets feral wisdom. Grounded by Saturn and Pluto, so the wildness has bones and roots.

This transmission moves through the Gemini–Sagittarius polarity, the undomesticated archetype of the sign, the Moon's applying conjunction with Lilith and what it means when the wild witch feminine is fully illuminated, Chiron at the final degree of Aries closing a long chapter, and the fortune building between Venus and Jupiter granting wishes fulfilled - be bold enough to ask.

Plus a message from the Sagittarius Moon for every rising sign.

Let me know your rising sign in the comments!

Planetary Magick! Starts TOMORROW ✨️

In this 8 part online workshop series, we will work with the magick of the planets!

www.aeprilsastrology.com

Also known as astrological magick, this is a form of magickal practice that harnesses the energies and influences of the planets and gods.

Each planet has their own unique qualities, powers, and correspondences, which can be channeled through spells, talismans, magick squares, and simple direct communication via word and gesture.

Together we will touch on the traditions of the grimoires and work with the Orphic Hymns. We'll connect with myth and story.

You will make the relationship with each planetary energy your own, deepening and strengthening your bonds with each power.

You will "get to know each other" experientially, practically, and in an embodied way, developing a relationship and deepening your understanding.

The first class is an introduction to the practice(s) of planetary magick.

The next seven classes are dedicated to the 7 classical planets, one session for each.

Moon: Emotional well being, home, family, intuition, psychic abilities.
Sun: Vitality, success, acclaim, life path actualization, inner child, personal power, self expression.
Mercury: Communication, learning, shape-shifting, comedy, business, short distance travel.
Venus: Love, beauty, sexual magnetism, relationships, value, money.
Mars: Courage, assertiveness, conflict, desire.
Jupiter: Expansion, abundance, growth, success in law.
Saturn: Boundary setting, discipline, structure, limitation, success in worldly matters.

January 15 - March 5, Wednesdays
7- 8:30 Irish time
Via Zoom
Patrons get additional 13% off
Recordings available

Some knowledge of astrology and magick is supportive, but not necessary 🖤

Happy Friday (sacred to Venus) my darling! 🖤✨️

Venus is newly in Pisces. I LOVE this placement, with its soft focus lens and emphasis on Universal Love. Venus is exalted in Pisces, so she can fully express her powers. She's sympathetic and dreamy. She's divine love. Sexuality as holy. She's encouraging us to live in our hearts primarily.

Where could you soften, even a little?

How could you prioritize love a little more?

The heart knows that curiosity is more powerful than judgement. Ego may argue, because it likes to self preserve and be right. It likes what it knows. It likes to say "look at what the heart did to me". But the heart, when it's *really* attuned with, is the direct line to your soul. And that's the only thing that's going to matter in the end.

While I'm writing this, I'm looking up through my window at the beautiful Pisces cresent Moon in the sky alongside sparkling Venus. The swans are gathering in their nighttime place in the winter lake...

Happy Friday my sweet friend 🖤 This is a big week astrologically speaking!

Mars is locked in an opposition with Pluto, AND going backward. Mercury is still retro, too. Things slow down and pressure for change builds at the same time.

The North Node in Aries has been showing us the new directions that we need to move in in order to self-actualize. But Mars R is slowing down this process and putting it before the Lord of Underworld for evaluation. Pluto doesn't play, and interrogates our self-concept with questions that may seem just a smidge heavy-ish 🖤

There's the potential for raw, unconscious, old themes to rise to the surface and oof… it might not look pretty. It's easy to confuse threats to our ego with threats to our survival. And true, it's Ego's job to keep identity intact, and to keep us emotionally safe. But Pluto is about the soul. Getting worked up could be a signal that a course correction is needed in order to answer something even greater in ourselves.

With Chiron and Lilith opposite one another in Aries and Libra respectively (Mars ruled and Venus ruled) we might feel like a very vulnerable underside is exposed, a pain point triggered, and it's easy to default into lashing out or abandoning. Two words: shadow. work.

Venus will arrive on the scene with a conjunction with Pluto and an opposition to Mars. This is kinda upsetting, but also kinda hot??

I think of this quote from Esther Perel: “Most of us will get turned on at night by the very same things that we will demonstrate against during the day – the erotic mind is not very politically correct.”
