The planetary configurations for April 2020 are powerful, dynamic forces. The Sun traveling through the sign of Aries, Saturn joins the powerful Mars in Aquarius. “Uranus squares Saturn and Mars, and Jupiter and Pluto square the Sun, and this is just in the first week!” This is a galvanizing time for action and “to focus on constructive change”. Many may experience a heightened emotional state, finding themselves overreacting in all ways, during the full moon in Libra on April 7/8. Meditate, rest, seek balance. Uranus square Mars is a dynamic aspect, which can act adversely and “can easily cause willful and fanatical behavior, leading to potentially rash and destructive actions”. It may be helpful to ask ourselves: “Why are we doing this? What are we trying to achieve?” To counteract these energies, we can ground ourselves by spending time in nature. “Another remedy is to put our hands in the earth …. doing some digging or planting ; we could bake a cake or create something. Anything that involves using our hands is a practical way will bring down the energy from the head into the body and discharge it effectively.”
The Saturn alignment with Mars can be a very constructive alignment, if we don’t allow Uranian energies to propel us toward excess. Uranian idealism fuels our desires, our quests and our actions for change, but we should vigilantly practice “patience and steadiness” to stay on track. A square from Jupiter and Pluto to the Sun reaches its zenith at mid-month, and presents a different challenge. “Mars & Uranus are driven by a rebellious need to bring change at any cost; Jupiter & Pluto are the embodiment of excess and greed”, urging us to overconsume goods, food, drink and experiences. Stuffing ourselves, even full of experiences, can be detrimental to our wellbeing; it can serve to distract us from discomfort, but ultimately produce a different type of discomfort. Around April 13th – 15th we can choose to observe if we are indulging this tendency …. to grab all the gusto we can. Or is there a situation where we feel “we aren’t getting enough?” Jupiter-Pluto energies can mirror an inner lack, and this experiential opportunity can serve us …. in seeking to discover what we wish to fill that void with. What will bring us greater meaning? From what stems this discontent? If we stay with this inner exploration, it can indeed be fruitful. Our answers can lead us to necessary changes. Be willing to look within and seek the answers.
Any settling of the energies as they shift into Taurus, during the third week, might seem fleeting, as the Sun moves toward Uranus, then a new moon forms, a time for new beginnings. “Taurus wants to keep things as they are, but Uranus has other ideas, and where this new moon falls in our individual charts, that’s where we need to make the real changes. It is a call to break an existing pattern that isn’t working any more. What that pattern is may well become apparent 4/19 – 4/23, as Saturn squares this Uranian alignment in Taurus, strongly suggesting that things can’t carry on as they are.” The discomfort we feel, is our cue to do things differently.
Around 4/23, is an auspicious “time to plant new seeds and start to break free from the old ways”. Ask yourself, “how have I been holding myself back? How can I liberate myself from a limiting situation? April brings potential to make refreshing and progressive changes.” We need to ‘think outside the box’, “brainstorming and being open to new ways of looking” at our situations. “Then we can really harness April’s potent energies for change and welcome that which is trying to break through.”

The perfected vision of the cosmos is expanding and evolving in new directions, facilitating the actualization of its original purpose and vision — manifesting spirit into matter and bringing heaven to Earth.”
