A little tension
The Sun sextile the eleventh field in Taurus , where it joins the New Moon on May 8. Venus remains dissonant in the tenth field in Aries until April 29th, then in turn enters Taurus ; vice versa, Mars is in trine in the ninth field in Pisces until April 30th and then enters Aries . Meanwhile, Mercury continues its retrograde phase in Aries : it resumes its direct motion on April 25th and ends its square on May 15th, when it reaches Venus and Sun in Taurus . As for the slow planets, Saturn and Neptune in Pisces are in trine to the second and third decade respectively while Jupiter and Uranus in Taurus are both in sextile to the third. In short, there is a bit of tension in the air, in particular the busiest days will be 21, 22, 23, 29 and 30 April, 5, 6, 19 and 20 May. The best days will be April 24th and 25th, May 3rd, 4th, 7th, 8th, 12th and 16th.
Better to be pragmatic
As we have seen, the dissonances of the fast planets have been and continue to be quite tiring to understand, process, manage, even more so because Mercury in retrograde phase is not exactly very fast (it entered Aries on March 10th), just as it is not Mars (which will transit through your home from April 30th to June 9th). The good news is that Venus returns to support on April 29th, followed by Mercury itself on May 15th. There remains a month to live with common sense, occasionally with caution, at least in the first half of May which presents the simultaneous square of Mercury and Mars : a delicate union between confused ideas and impulsive actions, with an undercurrent of restlessness and consequent irritability! But there is no shortage of resources, indeed if used well they can help you keep the risk of errors (in judgements, behaviours, decisions) under control. I am referring not only to Venus , which with its sextile will still do its part, in terms of maintaining or recovering relational balances, as well as supporting your mediation capacity. But I am thinking above all of the slow planets, all in harmonious transit, which define a substantially positive general period, despite this passing phase of instability. Precisely for this reason it is better for you to be patient, avoiding getting discouraged by certain contingent difficulties which - as such - can be faced much better from a perspective of objective pragmatism: not anxiety...
Common reasons
With Jupiter ruling the sixth field , still in support and conjunct Uranus from the eleventh, some good news about work cannot be ruled out, both economically and in terms of personal satisfaction, confirming your merits. However, it is important not to confuse confidence with bravado, self-confidence with the overestimation of your strengths, resources and concrete possibilities. As I wrote above, Mars and Mercury in dissonance suggest attention and caution, especially regarding the most ambitious or expensive projects: projects that can still be carried forward, as long as with well-planned methods and timing. Even those who work in a group must keep the competitive instinct under control, instead welcoming a profitable, stimulating comparison, useful as a verification (possibly as a rectification) of individual opinions. In this sense, the most effective period will probably be the second half of May. This also applies to couple relationships, which can initially be disturbed by misunderstandings, controversies and unpleasant recriminations. Perhaps the expectations on the relationship are different, focused on what is missing rather than on what unites... but little by little it will be easier to talk to each other, listen to each other, clarify ourselves, recovering complicity in common motivations, in mutual feelings, in shared projects. May is a month that offers many opportunities for singles or in general on a social level, with a progressive revival of harmony between friends and new acquaintances.
First decade
Mars will be in square from April 30th to May 13th. There are no other transits to disturb you, indeed Venus will give you its sextile from April 29th to May 7th, so you will be able to manage an occasional nervous phase with an effort of adaptation, patience, tolerance. Both at work and in private relationships it is important to encourage sharing, overlooking small rivalries.
Second decade
While Saturn continues its trine , the fast planets involve you with their transits: Mercury will be in sextile until May 5th, Venus from May 7th to 15th, Mars in square from May 13th to 26th. It certainly won't be a boring period, indeed there will be no shortage of stimuli and opportunities. A little stress is still possible, try not to expect too much: from yourself and from others...
Third decade
Mars will only be in trine until April 30th, but by joining Neptune it will be particularly intense, proactive, stimulating you to defend the values you believe in and to promote your dreams, projects and desires. However, it is better not to rush important decisions: with Mercury dissonant from May 5th to 15th, some doubts or second thoughts must be taken into account.
