This is another month of the inner planet retrogrades, Sagittarius, as well as being based on the powerful recent New Moon eclipse. This combination stirs your sector of creative self-expression, romance, and joy in your productions while you are simultaneously questioning yourself in this area. At the New Moon, Mercury at 0° of Aries, headed backward into Pisces, while Neptune, ruler of Pisces, was in close conjunction. This lends a dreamy, idealized, and other-worldly feeling to your thought patterns, and your partnerships, also governed by Mercury. Venus in retrograde rules your social interactions and future goals, which also have an introspective and inner-oriented feel to them right now. In this New Moon also, Mars, located in your sector of intimacy with others, and with yourself, is closely square Chiron, the Wounded Healer in your creativity sector. Inner wounding might arise or become more consciously available to you, perhaps as a blockage to your most authentic expression of yourself as you create and evolve. If such rumbles from deep within do come up, it is best to no longer shun hurt and walled-off spaces within you, but rather to accept yourself in these dark places. The potent Libra Full Moon of the 12th represents another significant juncture, promoting your societal contribution. With the Sun and Moon in partile or same-degree connection with Chiron, this lunation could bring matters to a head, as far as internal wounding and also for your life direction in general.

It’s Aries Season as you enter April – your time to be creative, fun loving, playful, romantic and artistic. More precisely, you are in the window of the recent Aris New Moon and Solar Eclipse from the last days of March, which sets you up in a cycle of fresh awareness around your sense of joy and talents, which impacts almost the whole of April; being an eclipse, this rather intense New Moon configuration could additionally impact the next six-months ahead. Jupiter, your chart ruler, is highlighted in your opposite sign of Gemini, which brings partners directly into this picture, while the ongoing retrogrades of Mercury, ruler of Gemini, and Venus, further imply that you will be in a meditative and introspective mode throughout, potentially looking more deeply into, or outright questioning, your relationship choices and the way you do things.
The ruler of this New Moon is Mars in Cancer, closely square Chiron in Aries in this lunation. You could be driving ahead in your commitments, pacts or promises made, aware of your affections passion projects and what’s born from you, but also what’s uncomfortable or even painful within you that might interfere with your drive for what you’re devoting your heart to, or become a factor in your relationship dynamic.
On the 4th, the First Quarter Moon arrives in Cancer, co-present with Mars, emphasizing a certain degree of conflict around themes inspired by relationship agreements or intimacy issues with close partners. You might try to make greater sense of your loyalties, your acceptance of each other, strong bonds or vows and to what extent you are in league with others.
In this First Quarter Moon, Saturn, ruling your sector of values, self-worth, and finances, forms a sextile to Uranus in Taurus or your sector of health and day-to-day environment, with Mars tied to both planets, trine to Saturn in Pisces, sextile Uranus. Your personal security and efforts at home among family could affect some surprising events or novel information connected with how you live and work day-to-day. Changes and adjustments to the way you manage your lifestyle or wellbeing could resonate with what you’re building inwardly and collaborating on.
From the 5th to the 7th, Venus in harmony with Mars meets Saturn and conjuncts Mercury in a rare close triple conjunction, and sextiles Uranus. This is a powerful time and might bring surprises and unexpected enlightenment from intuitional sources. There could also be a stifling of forward momentum.
On the 6th, the Sun finds harmony with your ruling planet Jupiter, which is particularly auspicious for love in partnership, or for expressing your desires to a significant other.
Mercury stations to direct motion on the 7th, becoming at that moment extra-powerful in its retrograde effects as it then slowly straightens out over the following several weeks, up to April 26th. There may be a lot going on in your private life and familiar spaces, yet clarity could begin to resume. You might be encouraged to take a serious, formal approach to household matters, parenting, or the past, satisfying your caretaking tendencies. The part that others play could be apparent too, so that you’re moving ahead with your committed unions, sacred agreements or in key relationships.
The Libra Full Moon arrives on the 12th in your social sector of friendship and group activities, so you might be drawn to a community, social circle, or a group of peers. The contrast is with your self-involvement in your own individual creativity, so that this lunation promotes more involvement with your societal contribution. Soon after the Full Moon, Venus stations direct, shifting in its retrograde to first station, then slowly begin to recover. As Libra is governed by Venus, the timing of this planet’s forward motion is an important part of this Full Moon, so that you’re again aware of how or where you’ve settled and found a place to nest interacts with your social sphere. Due to a very strong presence of Chiron, thee Wounded Healer in this Full Moon, there could be a further stage of conscious participation in your dark places within you where ancient hurt still lingers. If reminders of these walled-off parts of yourself do emerge, they can equally be seen as an opportunity to heal.
On the late evening of the 15th, your relationship planet Mercury re-enters Aries, forming a conjunction to Neptune, while three days later, on the 18th, Mars re-enters Leo, or your higher mind sector. These transitions into your compatible Fire element could help improve communications with other parts of yourself; and may even seem extra romantic or profoundly creative, particularly if you’re able remain expansive. You might be open to adventure, propelled in the direction of growth, keen to embark on a path of higher education, personal development, or identity enhancement! You win when you can relax and simply enjoy exploring, motivated to know or understand all that inspires you.
From the 18th to the 20th, during which time Taurus Season begins, on the 19th, Mars in this same sector of learning, education, worldview, and broader horizons forms a trine to Neptune in your zone of creativity and playful passions. This can bring extra focus to your wellbeing if you can allow yourself to dream, fanaticize, and detach from hard and fast physical reality.
On April 20th, the Last Quarter Aquarius Moon arrives with a conjunction to Pluto, opposing Mars, and which in turn squares the Sun. This fixed T-square suggests challenges, tension, and transformation. You could find that your innermost principles and values supply you with unexpected lessons learned, at deep levels, augmenting your own unique brand of creativity.
Also in this dynamic First Quarter Moon, Mercury in Aries is tied to Pluto in a sextile, while Venus is sextile Uranus in Taurus, and conjunct Saturn. Discussing what you want, who you love, and your honest affections could be a strong discussion starting point. The role you have at home may seem to you as extra productive, enhancing your mystical creativity and making of everyday events a sacred practice. You are perhaps finding the balance between joyful, social moments and ordinary routines of life.
The Taurus New Moon of the 27th makes for a fresh start, centered around the practicalities of habitual behaviors and your creative self-expression. In the next May month, you might encounter greater consistency around your health, wellness and routines, perhaps operating in a new field or fashion.
Whether it's a new flirtation or a lifelong partnership, your stars light the way to a deeper understanding of yourself, your lover, and your relationship.
