Imagiscopes: Week of April 25, 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 25 – May 1, 2016

Aries & Aries Rising

Twisting upward
drawn by sunlight
pushing and sprouting
out of sparse and
unlikely ground
green spears split open
to show trembling purple flowers
becoming a wild iris
asserting a will to grow

Taurus & Taurus Rising

Debris dances around the dredge
knifing through impacted bay
every pass deepens the furrow
in its hardpan surface
promising a new channel
cleared of cemented silt, fines and clays

Gemini & Gemini Rising

Swollen ovary releases its yolk
finding way through a winding oviduct
many layers later, producing an egg
with its hard outer crust
so easy to neglect, much harder to trust

Cancer & Cancer Rising

Stately wooden tower
climbs the warming light
on stacks of greying boards
defense against the night
they rest one atop the other
culminating as cradle
for a clock living in a long
narrow bower

Leo & Leo Rising

Mouth opened wide
forming a tremendous “Oh”
suspended in many shades of indigo
saturating the face
misshapen with surprise
swaddled in surrender
arms bound to either side

Virgo & Virgo Rising

A million tiny footfalls
pepper the earth
as one long, rippling body
shepherded by the soft
inquisitive
inquiring end
feels its way along
making contact with each surface

Libra & Libra Rising

Wisps rising through mists of time
making an acrid mantle mine
lays precarious across the shoulders
restless and drifting towards
the ears
a gauzy gift dripping with long
fingers of a good many years

Scorpio & Scorpio Rising

What tiny vessel bears
such a voluminous sail?
Nearly tipping, tossing
in the wind and the swell
yet worthy of these seas
popping up, buoyant
gliding, enduring the speeds

Sagittarius & Sagittarius Rising

Solar plexus effervescent
shimmering with rebellion
like a towering beast insisting
against all restraint
oval nostrils flaring
and teeth clenching
down in charge of the bit
trying to tear away

Capricorn & Capricorn Rising

Thick, green sheaths of life
licking your knees
tickling your sides
firm earth beneath
the glad weight of body
rolling about in delight

Aquarius & Aquarius Rising

Smooth, stout, round-headed pawn
skitters across the board
unknown the hand who makes
these moves
unknown who is in command

Pisces & Pisces Rising

Long claws motionless, resting
pensive lizard basks
with beaded skin glistening
content to wait for new skin’s
formation
the old is peeling without hesitation
