April’s Vital Astrological Events
Mercury Retrograde Is Back: April 1st
It’s not an April Fool’s joke, Mercury retrograde has returned to our lives from April 1 until April 25, putting an end to the blissful absence of retrograde astrological events we’ve enjoyed in recent months. Prepare for a whirlwind of changes in the realms of communication, timing, technological devices, and travel. Given that the retrograde occurs in fiery Aries, you might find yourself inclined to be spontaneous and act swiftly on your thoughts. However, it would be wise to balance this with a touch of added patience. Embracing a patient approach can yield great results during these periods of retrogrades!
Be sure to keep an eye on the Mercury cazimi happening on April 11. This alignment with the sun might just bring about a mental breakthrough or a moment of clarity regarding the retrograde issues you’re currently dealing with.
Venus Conjunct Neptune in Pisces: April 3rd
There is a delightful harmony in the celestial realm as Venus and Neptune come together, creating a captivating and enchanting energy. When Venus and Neptune align in Neptune, our emotions may become heightened, our hearts more tender, and our senses more attuned to pleasure. There seems to be a heightened sense of connection to our feminine side and a greater awareness of the things that bring us pleasure. This alignment of Venus and Neptune brings forth a highly creative energy, allowing us to invite more inspiration and creativity into our lives.

This Total Eclipse will be visible across North America and Central America, and is anticipated to be one of the most remarkable Eclipses of our lifetime. There is a belief that the countries that will witness the Total Eclipse are those that are poised for significant change and transformation. When it comes to celestial events, Eclipses have the power to ignite transformative energy in all of us. However, Solar Eclipses are particularly known for their ability to open doors of opportunity. The Solar Eclipse has the potential to unveil fresh opportunities and offer us a fresh perspective on things. We might encounter a profound moment of realization or clarity. We might consider embarking on a fresh journey, exploring uncharted paths. Solar Eclipses have a way of unveiling our true desires. At times, we may have a clear understanding of our desires, while other times, our desires may catch us off guard. This Eclipse holds immense potential for manifestation and provides a perfect opportunity to establish intentions for the future.
Sun Chiron Conjunction in Aries: April 8th
Occurring simultaneously with the Eclipse, the yearly alignment of Chiron and the Sun holds great significance for our path of healing. Chiron symbolizes the deep wounds that we carry within us. Our wounds can be a result of various factors, including our life experiences, upbringing, ancestry, or even past lives. Under the Eclipse, a powerful alignment between the Sun and Chiron may bring about a significant breakthrough in our healing journey. Through our healing journey, we may gain profound insights and a heightened understanding of how our past traumas have influenced us. With the annual meeting of the Sun and Chiron coinciding with the Eclipse at the exact same time and degree, this conjunction takes on a particularly significant and noteworthy quality.
A Powerful Mars-Saturn Conjunction in Pisces: April 9th-11th
The alignment of Mars and Saturn in Pisces is quite significant. The energy reaches its peak during these days, but we can sense its gradual buildup at least a week in advance. This combination can be quite unpredictable, especially considering its timing right after the Eclipse. The intensity of our emotions may be heightened as a result. When Mars and Saturn align, a strong and assertive energy emerges. With the addition of Mars and Saturn, there is a possibility of encountering some intense situations that may require careful handling. When Mars and Saturn align, it can have an impact on our boundaries and compel us to either assert ourselves more firmly or consider letting go.
Sun Mercury Conjunction (Mercury Cazimi): April 12th
When Mercury goes retrograde and aligns with the Sun, it creates a highly significant and influential day within the retrograde cycle. At this juncture, we have the opportunity to embrace a fresh perspective and gain new insights. When faced with uncertainty, we can now begin to find clarity. It seems that the return of past events brings a sense of ease and resolution.
Tapping Into Taurus Season: April 19th

A Jupiter-Uranus Conjunction Shakes Things Up: April 21st
This cosmic alignment is truly a remarkable event that we have the privilege of witnessing this year! The conjunction of Jupiter and Uranus occurs approximately every 12-14 years, but it’s worth noting that this particular conjunction in Taurus is a rare event that hasn’t happened in over a century. When Jupiter and Uranus come together, their cosmic dance brings forth a powerful surge of innovative energies and an increasing thirst for freedom. There is a strong possibility of witnessing significant technological advancements arising from this alignment, as Uranus is known to govern advanced technology. This has the potential to propel us into the realm of future technology and pave the way for an entirely new technological revolution. The convergence of Jupiter and Uranus in Taurus directs our focus towards the financial markets. There is a possibility of market volatility or significant announcements that could impact the global economy. From a personal standpoint, this alignment can ignite a heightened desire for independence, embracing our unique approach, and staying true to our genuine thoughts and emotions. There are times when certain celestial forces can introduce a sense of unpredictability and impulsiveness into our lives, and we might find ourselves drawn to embracing this energy. Finally, Uranus is the planet that governs seismic activity, which means we might witness earthquakes or peculiar weather patterns.
Sun Square Pluto: April 21st
Prepare for a powerful cosmic clash as the Sun in Taurus squares off against Pluto in Aquarius. Brace yourself for the intense energies that lie ahead.

During the Scorpio Full Moon, we experience a heightened sense of sensitivity and a deeper connection to our intuition and inner world.
Mercury Direct: April 25th
Mercury has completed its retrograde motion and is now moving forward again in the fiery sign of Aries. During the period when Mercury is no longer in retrograde, it is advisable to exercise caution and wait until Mercury has completely finished its post-retrograde shadow before committing to long-term contracts or making significant investments in travel or electronics. Mercury’s shadow period will come to an end on May 15th. When Mercury stations direct, it often brings forth a gift or valuable information. It’s important to remain receptive to any messages or clues that come your way on this day.
Mars Conjunct Neptune in Pisces: April 28th
