Imagiscopes: Week of April 10, 2016

Imagiscopes are based on sun sign astrology, popularly known as “the horoscope” for each sign that is found in many daily, weekly and monthly publications.  Like the horoscope, the imagiscope is based on the astrological transits for the week ahead, customized for each Sun sign. Find your Sun sign below to read your image for the coming week!

Imagiscopes are offered as a window into the living imagination, the imaginal realm which gives birth to all form and structure. Rather than offering a literal interpretation or story about the dynamics you may experience during the week, imagiscopes offer an invitation into an experience of those dynamics. Perhaps they will spark a memory, a feeling, or a more intuitive recognition of the planetary powers at play in your life this week. It may be helpful to not try to “figure it out,” but rather to sit with the mood it evokes and see what imagery or fantasy of your own might emerge in response.

To accurately determine your Sun sign, visit astro.com or a similar site which will allow you to cast your own natal chart. You will need the date, place and time of your birth. Those who are born from the 19th – 22nd of a given month may be one of two different signs. If you are casting your chart, also check out your rising sign if you don’t already know it. Images apply to both your Sun sign and the rising sign (Ascendant) of your natal chart, but note that the rising sign is only accurate if you have your correct time of birth.

Your Sun Sign Imagiscope for the Week of April 10 – April 16, 2016

Aries & Aries Rising

Frothing storm paints the sky
its penitent bliss
carried on the wind
with such the gentle, wounded kiss
gracing cheeks with soft goodbye

Taurus & Taurus Rising

Flat rock flipped
to expose the
underside
queasy pulse of life
deprived of light
bleached and white

Gemini & Gemini Rising

Long bubbles breaking
bitter
opening a fissure
of partial disclosure
the left hand fighting
what the right hand can’t hold

Cancer & Cancer Rising

Orange etches
leaves with light
burnished warmth
descending out of an
endless night

Leo & Leo Rising

Nose low
scent found
one paw follows the
other
claws sink into the ground
in a grand crouch
readying for the pounce

Virgo & Virgo Rising

Evenly distributed
this weight upon the
shoulders
bending one over
compelling to order
the dust that drifts over
the threshold

Libra & Libra Rising

Jagged borders
bump against
one another
soft skin dragged
over biting edges
catching
more than expected

Scorpio & Scorpio Rising

Cold sweat rising
up the nape of the neck
compromising
the cool once kept
under makeshift wrapping

Sagittarius & Sagittarius Rising

Smooth, rhythmic sliding
pulsing, undulating
cool skin gliding
over leaf litter, exciting
a secret lover hidden
somewhere inside her

Capricorn & Capricorn Rising

Pure white pebbles
round and smooth
pounded out of
the bald rock
bearing evidence of centuries’
friction on the move

Aquarius & Aquarius Rising

A creaking tree
leans into me
angrily scraping its
bough into my trunk
insisting I leave space
for the saplings yet to be

Pisces & Pisces Rising

Prickling whip of desire
tickles the inner thighs
setting eyes afire
and bursting all restraint
exposing wrists
so swollen and chafed
