April 1st Quarter Moon in Cancer
We start the month with Cardinal emotional energy that encourages us to direct our inner emotions and need for self-care. Instead of directing outward, we need to direct inward. The Quarter Moon follows the Aries New Moon and is leading up to the Full Moon in Libra. This is all Cardinal energy signaling direction and initiation - but it isn't productive to trust feelings without growth. The Quarter Moon reminds us we aren't quite there yet. Can you trust what you feel? Perhaps, but there is more inner work to be done so that we act out of the purest intentions. This may cause us to feel confused and unsure of what to feel but that is because the inner work cycle is not done.

April 3rd Venus in Gemini
There may be an increased desire to reach out and communicate with others more than before as we move into Venus which values partnership and Gemini which is associated with socialization and communication. Those who have felt more solitaire lately may connect even more with social media, online platforms, and other digital ways of communicating. Venus in Gemini brings the potential for being curious and intrigued by others. Venus in Gemini energy can be flirtatious so some online romances or increased communication with a partner can emerge. Venus in Taurus enabled us to stay centered with who and what we are used to, but Venus in Gemini forces us to desire new forms of contact. Venus also rules money and possessions so with the air element Gemini some people will be exploring alternate ways to make or secure money.
April 4th Jupiter conjunct Pluto
This is the first of three Jupiter Pluto conjuncts in 2020. With the world affairs, it's important to watch the energy that emerges from this alignment. Together these two planets indicate a merge of the expansion of change or power. There may be a tug of war between wisdom and transformation, or they simply will find a way to co-exist with change that is forceful and necessary but allows for optimism.
April 7th Full Moon in Libra
For those willing to go forth with the cycle, you will see any seeds planted during the other prominent Moon cycles begin to develop. With the Full Moon in Libra, we are learning new ways to cooperate. We aren't just presenting options, but we are understanding that we don't do most things 100% alone. See the value and power within purposeful partnership and cooperation.
April 11th Mercury in Aries
At this point Mercury is Conjunct the Sun. This heightens the potency of action matching our words. Mercury in Aries brings bold, direct communication. Whether it's liked or not, it is very clear. Those with Aries energy will feel more than ever the need to be vocal and match their actions with their mouth.

April 19th Sun in Taurus
Now, the Sun (ego) becomes concerned with appearing solid and stable. We'll see more effort around maintaining or building a solid foundation. Following other seasons, there has been a lot of emotion, action and thinking. Now the time comes to assess, look around and ask what works and what doesn't. With Mercury in Aries there may be more direct and blunt questioning of what is and isn't sustainable.

April 22nd New Moon in Taurus
With the Sun, Moon and Uranus being in Taurus we see a collaboration between expression, emotions, and change while still being centered around stability, possessions, and resources. However, with the influence of Uranus there is more experimentation and unorthodox methods of thinking about how to maintain and keep that afloat. This time brings opportunity to question and internalize our boundaries and if there are any emotional shifts we are clinging to that actually need to change.
April 23rd Ceres goes into Pisces
Ceres is an asteroid associated with nurture and care. Though the astrological energy is picking up with much needed action and direction in our society, we still need to keep the Pisces concepts of true compassion and devotion. People will want to maintain causes, outreach and organization that has helped with the pandemic.
April 25th Pluto in Capricorn Retrograde
Pluto can be transformation, controlling, abusive, or even overbearing. It all depends on how the energy is used. Old power struggles may emerge and questions over gain. People may have to go back to what they assumed was finished. There can be questioning of if something was altered, was it necessary? The question for the individual becomes if we changed ourselves or circumstances as much as we thought. Did we really attain our goal or was it temporary?
April 27th Mercury in Taurus
We've played around with the direct, blunt energy of Aries and possibly said what needs to be said. Now it's time to make sure what we said, promised, or communicated actually holds up. People may be sticking to their words more than usual, and avoid what's complex or needs heavy interpretation in exchange for direct, natural forms of communication that is reliable.
April 29 Pallas in Aquarius
Asteroid Pallas moves into Aquarius impacting the collective pysche. Pallas is linked to creative intelligence, wisdom, and how we solve problems. Asteroids serve as a support to planetary influences so we must look at where the planets are to see Pallas' true influence. Pallas in Aquarius represents solving problems with unique ideas that may not seem like the most easy but are logical and can be long-term solutions that benefits groups and society.
