April 2025 at a glance

Welcoming Spring and the changes it brings!

April will be colored by a new flavor of Neptune in Aries, that started on March 30th. None of us experienced it before and in the true fashion of Aries, we are stepping into unknown territory. On one side we are ready to go where no one ever did, but on the other side, we might lack direction. The good news this month is Mercury goes direct on April 7th, followed by Venus finishing her retrograde motion on April 12th. This will bring a fresh perspective on our way forward, especially after Mercury clears his retrograde shadow on April 26th.  

For more detailed information on Neptune in Aries check out the video on my YouTube channel in collaboration with Israel Ajose.

The Full Moon at 23°20' Libra on April 12th has Chiron conjunct to the Sun and hard aspect to Mars forming a T-square. Because of this configuration, we will be focused on healing, and our actions will be motivated by protecting ourselves. This Moon is ruled by Venus in Pisces stationing to go direct on the same day, suggesting we should focus on unconditional love to heal our deepest wounds. It's also a part of the lunar gestation family that started on the new moon on Oct 14th, 2023. The events of that new moon might come up on this lunation. Cardinal signs are affected the most: Aries, Cancer, Libra, Capricorn, and all of you with natal placements between 20°-27° of those signs.

On April 27th, the New Moon at 7°47' Taurus is highly volatile. It is on the apex of the T-square involving the Mars-Pluto opposition. The energy is fixed, intense, and ruthless. Be mindful of your surroundings and avoid conflicts and arguments, as they might escalate out of proportion and cause long-lasting damage and hurt to everyone involved. This is the third and final Mars-Pluto opposition so look back at November 2024 and January 2025 for more clarity on this lunation. It is the final power struggle. Most affected will be all fixed signs: Taurus, Leo, Scorpio, Aquarius, and all of you with natal placements between 5°-11° of those signs.

1. The first week of the month looks promising, with Mercury, Venus, Saturn, and the north node in Pisces making favorable aspects to Mars in Cancer and Uranus in Taurus. This will be exact on April 4th. It is time to continue moving forward with existing projects, but don't start anything new until Mercury goes direct on April 7th. Mars Saturn gives us the focus and self-discipline; and with a touch of Uranus, we can accelerate things.
2. On April 6th, Venus in Pisces, still retrograde, trines Mars, followed by the conjunction with Saturn the next day and sextile to Uranus the following day. Our relationships and finances might require a more serious approach, but our creativity might get a boost. Feelings of low self-worth and doubt can make us focus on the past instead of the future.
3. The North Node gets activated on April 10th with a conjunction to Mercury and trine to Mars on April 11th. This is an opportunity to revise our next steps and move forward equipped with strong intuition and self-love.
4. Juno retrograde moves into Scorpio on April 15th, entering the realm of secret alliances and partnerships. Don't forget Juno is very loyal and will seek trust and intimacy in our committed relationships.
5. On April 16th Mercury goes back to Aries, Mars to Leo on April 18th and the official Taurus season starts on April 20th when the Sun enters Taurus.  After each shift, all will meet with Neptune, now in Aries. This will bring fresh energy and a need to do things now. We might feel we can't wait any longer.
6. The last 10 days of April will bring a lot of tension, volatility, and conflicts with the Sun-Mars square on April 20th, Sun-Pluto square on April 23rd, and Mars-Pluto opposition on April 26th. These hard aspects are happening in the fixed signs, bringing a lot of stubborn energy with no one willing to budge down. Think before you act, don't rush into arguments, and be mindful of your surroundings and potential aggression.
7. We are finishing the month with Venus entering Aries on April 30th. This will not help the existing confrontations and highly volatile energy. She will add oil to the fire, fighting for her desires.

April is still an unpredictable month with a lot of energy shifts and dealings with unclarity. Use the middle of the month to do something productive and efficient, and arm yourself with patience and confidence to fight the obstacles on your way forward!
