Welcome to the April Astrology Report!
It’s hard to believe it’s already April! 2023 is moving right along.
How are you feeling about 2023 this far? How has your year gone up until now?
March was definitely one of the most active months of the year, astrologically speaking.
We had three significant planetary changes in March. We had Saturn change signs for the first time since 2020 (can I get an amen?). We had Pluto change signs for the first time since 2008. And finally, we had Mars change signs for the first time since August 2022.
Three planetary changes in one month signify three areas of our life that are about to go through significant changes. A lot is shifting.
This brings me to April! April is a much different section of the year in tone and temperament. We have eclipses occurring in April and May, which makes this time a crucial corner of the year.
Eclipses bring big moments, big situations, big opportunities, and big events that alter or shape our lives in some way. Some might say Eclipses bring big beginnings and big endings.
This season, we have a new kind of eclipse happening in the sign of Aries. This is the first time we will have an eclipse near the North Node in Aries for a couple decades. A few weeks later, we have the last of a series of South Node eclipses in the sign of Scorpio. We are beginning a new story in one area of our lives and ending another story in a different area of our life. Pay attention to the shifts and changes happening during this time, as they are often quite fated in nature.
Right before the North Node eclipse in Aries on April 19th, we had a Sun/Jupiter conjunction (coming together) that happened on April 11th. This signified a bold, triumphant rebirth of the planet of abundance and growth. Pay attention to areas of your life that feel extra energized during this time. Whether consciously or subconsciously, powerful seeds for an abundant future were planted on that day!
A few days after the first Eclipse in Aries, Mercury will station retrograde on April 21st. As my six-year-old would say, womp, womp!! Mercury gets a bad rap. There is nothing to fear about a Mercury retrograde. However, getting all your ducks in a row and tidying up any loose ends before his station day is a good idea.
April is expected to be a very bold and possibly bumpy month (due to Mercury and his tricks)! Make the most out of this time by going slower than you think you should, and let the cosmos reveal your next step!
I’ll see you next month for the Astrology of May. I will give you a teaser, my favorite planet in our solar system is moving into one of my favorite zodiac signs! Get ready for some abundant miracle grow!
