In-Depth Astrological Notes

Button

  • April 2023 seems to bring emotional fluctuations, outbursts and purging, as well as fluctuations in the material.

  • We start the month with the Moon in a tense square to Venus and Uranus which may bring unexpected emotions around appearance, finances and love. Mercury in Taurus squares Pluto a few days into the month, which may bring instability to the financial markets. However, during this time, there is emotional and spiritual healing to be found with the aspects to Chiron, if one is willing to take a realistic look at themselves. With a friendly aspect between Mars and Saturn, following your passion and overcoming any blocks may be helpful to the healing process.. 

  • On April 5th/6th, depending on where you are in the world, we will have the Full Pink Moon in Libra. This full moon may bring an ease to view relationships in an honest light. Relationships that are supportive of our well being, may be elevated to an almost dreamy state, while we may also find clear thinking and judgment for relationships that are no longer serving us or our best interests.

  • The middle of the month could bring emotional ups and downs in relationships and in general, anything that one is passionate about. It would be good to err on the side of caution regarding any information you are divulging that could possibly cause upsetment to others. If possible, it may be good to try to soften any harsh criticisms or words. A bit of luck may show up on April 11th with the Sun and Jupiter conjunct.

  • On April 19th/20th, depending on where you are in the world, we will have a New Moon Solar Eclipse at the last degree of Aries. This is considered a crisis point, and big shifts during the 2 weeks before and at least 2 weeks (up to 6 months) after are possible. With this eclipse squaring Pluto, we may see a preview of the Pluto in Aquarius cycle we are beginning. This will be felt more personally, if you have any personal planets close to 29 degrees in your natal or progressed chart*, or if your birthday falls in the last two days of the Cardinal signs (Aries, Cancer, Libra, Capricorn), or the first two days of the Fixed signs (Taurus, Leo, Scorpio, Aquarius). This is not a good time to set intentions or practice any New Moon manifestations. This would be a good time to just go with the flow, and allow whatever presents itself to be. If you do feel an overwhelming call to work with the energy of this eclipse, it would be best to put introspection at the forefront. You will be able to sort out anything that catches you off guard later, but for this time period, just try to be in the moment. Because this eclipse is visible in the Southeast Asia region, including Australia, events may place these locations in the news.

  • Right after the New Moon Eclipse, the Sun moves into Taurus, and Mercury stations to go Retrograde on April 22, 2023 in the sign of Taurus. This will bring a focus to our material resources, such as finances, values, possessions and necessities. Turbulence in the financial markets may continue to be in the news with the conjunction of Mercury and Uranus at the beginning of this retrograde period, as well as Pluto in Aquarius being in the Egyptian bound of Mercury (turbulence in the markets may be a focus throughout this transit).

  • As we end the month, we may be reviewing any emotional or spiritual healing that was initiated earlier this month or any events that have transpired due to the Eclipse. Allowing your passions to flow will be beneficial to you during this period. As triple Taurean, Marcus Aurelius, noted in Meditations, “You have power over your mind – not outside events. Realize this and you will find strength.”
