APRIL 2021 OVERVIEW

LUNATIONS:

This NEW MOON is in ARIES and occurs on April 11, 2021 10:30:41pm EDST. The lunation chart reveals a major stellium of planets in Aries! The Lights, Venus, Mercury and Chiron are all traveling close together in the Heavens! The Lights and Venus are in square to Pluto in Capricorn encouraging us to have a strategy before we embrace this Cardinal Fire and begin anew. Impatience must be bridled for the best possible progress to be achieved. Hold your inspiration high but also watch your steps!

This FULL MOON is in SCORPIO and occurs on April 26, 2021 11:31:23pm EDST. It is in opposition to both the Sun and Uranus in Taurus as it forms a trine to Mars in Cancer. There is a deep desire to manifest, stabilize and increase a sense of security. Both instinct and intuition are available in this cycle. Wisdom will also play a role in the decisions you be making. Take time to ponder! The Sun, Uranus, Venus, and Mercury are traveling close together in the Heavens. They form a quadruple square to Saturn in Aquarius. Resistance to progress will be evident all around you. Stand your ground but do bear witness to possibilities!


RETROGRADE STATIONS AND SHIFTS: 

PLUTO IN CAPRICORN STATIONS RETROGRADE

Pluto will station  retrograde in Capricorn on April 27, 2021 and will remain so until  to October 6, 2021. Pluto is the planet of life, death re-birthing and transformations of all types. As it retrogrades each year for a few months, it allows us to employ history as our teacher. Often times in history, that which is nearly forgotten, reveal themselves.

Scholars can be intensely busy in this cycle. Do diligent research on fulfilling your deepest needs and desires. Take time to also take a look at the bigger picture of your community, country, the Earth and the cosmic messages that come through! Take time to ponder!
