The month begins with a lovely full Moon in Libra at 12 degrees, 21’. But with the opposition from the Sun and Saturn in Aries, it could be a tense one as the exalted Sun in Aries wants quick action and Saturn, not his best in Aries, wants a slower, well- planned scenario. This makes for a difficult beginning to the month, or just a disappointing one.
Mercury continues to move forward in Pisces but it will take until April 8 before he clears the degree he retrograded on at the end of February. Misunderstandings are still possible with Mercury in Pisces as it is not its best placement. Venus just moved into her sign of Taurus, where she feels at home, comfortable and appreciated. She enters Gemini on April 24th after a little dustup conjunction with Uranus between the 20th and 24th. This blend of energies has the potential for upheaval and financial reversals. It can also be hard on relationships as it tends to have a separating effect on them. Uranus follows her into Gemini on the 26th where he will transit for just about 7 years. And you thought Gemini’s were nuts before this, just you wait and see!
Mars ends its sojourn through Pisces on April 10th and enters Aries, the sign he rules. This energy just crackles with potential but it can be hot headed and act with haste. The worst period for this in between April 14th and April 19th when Mars moves closer to Saturn’s position at 7 degrees Aries. They are rather war like together and Mars tends to overpower the situation. Avoid conflicts if you can on the 18th and 19th of the month. I am not liking that energy right now. Mercury moves close to Mars and Saturn between the 18th and 20th and that can also be kind of aggressive in the sign of Aries. I expect there will be a serious blame game going on then. This energy doesn’t really subside until around April 25th. Take note, don’t start anything new between April 14th and April 25th. It’s just too volatile of a time period for things to go smoothly.
Jupiter, continues its movement through the sign of Cancer, moving between the 15th degree and almost the 18th degree by month’s end. Jupiter is very stable and peaceful in Cancer and gets very protective about those he cares about in this sign. It is actually good that Jupiter is here at this bizarre time for the world.
Saturn, as I said earlier, is in the sign of Aries and not too happy to be there and moves from 5 degrees, 37’ to 9 degrees, 5’ through the month. The transit of Mars will upset its normal stable and competent guidance so there may need to be a recovery time as that aspect fades after the 19th. Take a deep breath and let it out long and slow.
Uranus enters Gemini for the second time and remains in that sign through the early spring of 2033. Expects lots of changes surrounding communication, technology, personal devices and the internet. Security about technology that moves through the ethers will be a big focus during this period.
Neptune is in Aries and moves from 2 degrees 13’ to 3 degrees 14’ during the month. It makes a sextile aspect to both Venus and Uranus in Gemini after the 25th so that can be positive. It also makes a sextile aspect with Pluto in May so there may definitely be some major transformation potential in the air. Remain positive and do what you can to stabilize your life and place in the universe.
Pluto is in Aquarius and moves from 5 degrees 13’ to 5 degrees 30’ and is gaining in power throughout the month as it stations to go retrograde on May 6th. Pluto is ultimately about transformation and Aquarius is associated with progressive power, tolerance and respect for the individual, independence and also humane and altruistic principles. I hope those principles are honored at this difficult time.
READ YOUR SUN SIGN AND RISING SIGN FOR BEST RESULTS:
Aries — March 21-April 19: By April 9th, there will be four planets, plus Chiron, in your sign. This lineup includes Mars, your ruling planet. Hear me roar, rings in my head with this stellium but it is diluted a bit the first few days as Neptune dilutes the urge for action. Mars with Neptune would rather stop by the bar for a drink or two rather than charge ahead. But after that interlude, Mars ramps up for action as it charges towards Saturn. Will Saturn tone it down? I don’t think so as Saturn is weak in Aries and Mars is super strong. In your personal life, stay active to burn some of this energy off and don’t be too aggressive with others. It evens out after the 25th, but don’t be surprised if there are some hurt feelings and you have some apologies to make. Your stellar days are the 15th and 16th.
Taurus — April 20-May 20: With Venus, your ruling planet, in your sign for most of the month, this is a great time to entertain, to enjoy and beautify your home and share quality time with friends and family. Some excitement is in order between the 20th and 25th as Venus moves towards a conjunction with Uranus, the great awakener. For people looking for a relationship, you could find yourself attracted to someone completely different than your normal leanings. It may not last for long but it could definitely have something to teach you. Then Venus enters Gemini, where she is the perennial flirt, so have fun with that, too. Your best days are the new Moon on the 17th and the 18th.
Gemini — May 21-June 21: You have a good thing going on this month with 4 planets in Aries, making a sextile to your sign and Pluto in Aquarius making a trine! By the end of the month you will have both Venus and Uranus entering your sign, so some unusual events or adventures are in order. Uranus will be there for almost 7 years so get ready for some major changes in almost everything in your life. This will shock some people but they find you flaky anyway. You are just responding to the vibes of Uranus moving through your sign and signaling, it’s time to move on and try something new and different. So don’t fight the urge, just walk on towards your next adventure. The 19th and 20th are the best days of the month for you.
Cancer — June 22-July 23: Jupiter is still having its protective influence in your sign so you have that going for you. This month presents some challenges as the 4 planets plus Chiron in Aries, which squares Cancer, throws some curve balls your way. Watch your temper between the 14th and 20th as Mars will conjunct Saturn at 7 degrees of Aries and that can definitely cause some grief and obstacles. The end of the month improves greatly but you’ll still have to deal with some aftermath of the restrictions imposed on you. Use the positive vibes of the 21st, 22nd and the AM hours of the 23rd to get your way.
Leo — July 24-August 23: With 4 planets and Chiron in Aries now making a trine relationship to you, things should greatly improve in your life. They have not only changed signs but they also changed houses and are now in the positive 9th house. Those pesky planets when they were in Pisces were in your 8th house of endings, transformations, taxes and end of life matters, never much fun. The 9th is more philosophical, enjoys travel, and higher-minded pursuits. Jupiter is still in Cancer in your solitary 12th house so you may still be a bit reclusive and that’s OK. Use the stellar vibes of the PM hours of the 23rd, the 24th and 25th to enjoy life and whatever you are doing.
Virgo — August 24-September 22: This month with 4 planets and Chiron all transiting in Aries in your solar 8th house, you’ve got money, taxes, investments, end of life matters and then some on your mind. Luckily, Venus is in Taurus for most of the month and in your positive solar 9th house, which is a very favorable placement. Take time off to enjoy life this month and have a few adventures. Jupiter is nicely placed in your solar 11th house of friends, business associates and hopes, wishes and dreams, so you have some protection around you in those areas of life. The lunar vibes of the 26th and 27th are your best days.
Libra — September 23-October 22: With Venus, your ruling planet, in Taurus, you should have some comfort and happiness in your life right now. However, with the 4 planets and Chiron in your solar 7th house your partner may some issues to be concerned about. Mars together with Saturn is kind of an emergency conjunction and between the 16th-20th could bring a change in their demeanor, mobility or just extreme frustration with something going on in their life. Be patient, as after April 25th, things ease up or the problem gets solved, so do what is necessary but don’t get too upset, as this is temporary. The positive vibes of the 28th, 29th and AM hours of the 30th are your best days.
Scorpio — October 23-November 22: Mars, also your ruling planet, is in its other home sign, Aries, after the 10th so you get a boost from that favorable energy. However, the Aries energy occupies your solar 6th house of health and illness, small pets, routines, co-workers and those we serve. It could be a little dicey for you between the 16th-20th when Mars is conjunct Saturn as they aren’t friends. Avoid confrontations and reschedule any meeting with difficult clients until after the 25th, when things generally ease up. Do things that improve your health and habits. The cosmos favors you on the 3rd, 4th 5th and PM hours of the 30th.
Sagittarius — November 23-December 20: With Jupiter transiting its exaltation sign of Cancer and moving through your solar 8th house, you may receive a windfall from an investment, an inheritance or some kind of surprise gift of money. What’s not to like about that? The Aries planetary lineup is transiting through your solar 5th house of creativity, love affairs, our passions and things we do for fun. Also, not a bad thing, except for Saturn being in there, like the spinster teacher at the HS dance, slowing things down and creating an air of disapproval. Bummer. But in any event, you can still go about doing things but keep a lower profile and don’t splurge on expensive items. Enjoy what you can, particularly on the 6th and 7th, your lucky days. .
Capricorn — December 21-January 20: Saturn, your ruling planet, is now in Aries, the sign of its detriment so don’t expect things to be super easy. You’ve got two more years of this so buckle down for more responsibility, a concentration of things to handle and less time for just having fun. You will get a reward for your efforts when this transit is over in May of 2028! The 4 stellium planetary lineup in Aries is transiting your solar 4th house of home, family, real estate and ancestors so some of the responsibility may come from having to care for or provide assistance to an aging family member. That’s what Saturn often does in the 4th house. Enjoy the lunar vibes of 8th 9th and 10th as the Moon transits your sign.
Aquarius — January 21-February 19: Saturn in Aries is actually making a nice sextile to your sign so you can make gains during this time. It is transiting your solar 3rd house of neighbors, siblings, communication and your interests. This could be a time for solidifying those relationships and being a trustworthy ally to those around you. Venus joins Uranus at the end of Taurus in your solar 4th house so you may have a sudden and unexpected change in some family or real estate matter, so don’t be surprised it something new presents itself towards the end of April. The positive vibes on the 11th and 12th favor Aquarians.
Pisces — February 20-March 20: With Jupiter, your ruling planet, in its exaltation sign of Cancer and making a trine to your sign, you’ve got some good fortune around you, your family and loved ones as this is happening in your solar 5th house of children, creativity, fun and our greatest passions. Mars in Pisces until the 9th is also assisting with your good vibes but between the 14th and 23rd things could get tense or you have an expensive outlay you didn’t expect to incur. Yes, it will be frustrating and yes, you will get through it. Be particularly careful at that time and also around the 23-25th when Venus will be close to Uranus, this could also be a disruptive time and could cost you money. So just be cautious and don’t move around too quickly. The good lunar vibes of the 13th and 14th favor you.
