April 2023 Astrology

April begins with the Sun in the sign of Aries and is moving in the sky with Chiron, Jupiter, Vesta and Mercury. The asteroid Chiron is both our wound and our gift of healing. When we heal ourself, we may guide another. Chiron has been travelling through Aries since 2018 and will continue until 2027 and it is a time when every person is doing deep healing work. The Sun travelling in the sky with Chiron definitely illuminates this wound for some, and for some of the more advanced, allows the healers to shine. 

Venus and Uranus travel in the sky together in Taurus so expect the unexpected in love. Uranus is electric, quickly changing and definitely has an aspect of surprise to it. Juno and the North node are also in Taurus. 

Mars is travelling through Cancer making everyone’s willpower more about their home environment and giving a bit more care to their own nourishment. Pluto moved into Aquarius last month and Saturn moved into Pisces. Neptune is also in Pisces. 

The full moon occurs just after midnight on April 6. The Sun will be combust (at the same degree as) Chiron and the moon opposes this, sitting at the 16° Aries and 16° Libra, respectfully. This deals with a need to open one’s mind or consciousness to reflection with another, to find emotional balance. The new moon occurs April 19 at 10pm at 29° Aries in conjunction with the North node and Vesta. The 29th degree of Aries is all about harmony and the highest frequencies of existence.
