Apr 1st to the 12th -- a moderate, focused storm.
Apr 13th to the 16th -- a noisy transition period.
Apr 17th to the 22nd -- the biggest storm in 2 months.
Apr 23rd to the 30th -- losing steam again.
An online ephemeris for the month is available. Check Current Transits, too.
The waveforms are starting to get back to a more normal pattern of storms (reasonable for a change) and transition periods alternating with each other. It appears almost all the important energies are based on that pattern of Jupiter opposite Saturn, with Neptune forming 45 and 135 degree aspects to those endpoints. Granted, the aspects in this group peaked in exactitude in late March, but they are still active, especially when fast moving planets go over the Aries end of the pattern where Jupiter is. This group is triggered regularly, creating some nice, crisp looking storms. There are 4 main energy patterns in April.
Apr 1st to the 12th |
The 1st to the 12th is a mild, but well focused planetary storm. The waveform varies in strength from 350 to 486 units -- pretty moderate, we can handle this. The harmonics are mostly H24, H12, H48 and H6 -- a bit on the stressful and jittery side. The energies are most focused at 15 to 19 degrees (drifting slowly during the 12 days) and 0-1 degrees of each zodiac sign. See if these areas of influence are affecting any planets in your own birth chart. There's a lot going on during this period. The Jupiter-Saturn-Neptune grouping is being repeatedly activated, particularly at the new moon which is right opposite Saturn. Of course, Neptune changes signs on the 4th and Pluto is standing still on the 9th, so there's a large amount of outer planet influence working away in the background. Pay special attention to how the overall mood changes on the 4th, as we will be trying to assimilate these new energies for many years to come. It's a good time to put in some effort to pursue your goals, but be extra careful about how you treat others. That's because Mars is very active, conjuncting Uranus on the 3rd and squaring Pluto on the 11th. It's easy to push people's buttons during this time, causing quite a row.
Apr 13th to the 16th |
The 13th to the 16th is a brief, but noisy transition period. There's hardly any energy here to work with, considering that the waveform varies from 304 to 414 units. The harmonics include H48, H12, H2 and H24 -- pretty scattered and stressful for the most part. The energies are most easily felt at 0-1, 13-17, 7 and 24 degrees of each sign. There's not much happening during this brief time. You may feel the need to zone out some and gather your strength again -- hopefully the universe will oblige you. Get your second wind and prepare for the next storm.
Apr 17th to the 22nd |
The 17th to the 22nd is the main storm of the month, focused and well formed. The waveform varies from 375 to 501 units, the first Koz Alert (though barely) since February. The harmonics consist of H24, H4 and H12 -- energetic, but challenging. The main peaks in the waveform are at 28 degrees of one sign to 1 degree of the next one (crossing the cusps) and 12-14 degrees. Neptune is especially active during this time, with help from Venus and Mars, so emotional issues may be rising up. You probably won't be able to make much sense of these matters at this time, but just take into account that relationships may be rather tricky now. Keep you ego out of the picture -- it helps.
Apr 23rd to the 30th |
Finally, the 23rd to the end of the month is a much weaker picture, shifting around aimlessly and without direction. The waveform is in the 343 to 475 unit region -- weak to moderate intensity levels. The harmonics are a mix of H48, H12 and H24, more scattered and challenging frequencies. The focal areas drift from 3 to 10 degrees during this time; 14 degrees also shows up. Right away on the 23rd, Mercury stands still, so your thinking mind may be in the tank. It's going direct though, so your brain improves as the days go on. The 27th may be a rather intense or emotional day, as there are some significant Pluto aspects going off. Stay calm and detached if any soap operas develop. The energies are mostly low key most of this time, not showing any strength until the 30th. It appears the waveform is intensifying as we head into May.
