Tension in the air
The Sun transits in square in the fourth field in Taurus , where the New Moon forms on April 27. Mercury remains in sextile in the third field in Aries until May 10, after which it also enters Taurus , while Venus enters Aries on April 30. Meanwhile, since April 18, Mars has moved into opposition in the seventh field in Leo . As for the slower planets, Pluto is in conjunct in the first degrees, involving those born at the beginning of the sign who also receive the sextile of Neptune , recently entered Aries . The third decade is instead affected by the square of Uranus in Taurus and the trine of Jupiter in Gemini . In short, there is a bit of tension in the air, especially on days like April 21, 22, 27 and 28, May 4, 5, 11, 12 and 19. But there will also be generous and fulfilling days, for example April 25, 26, 29 and 30, May 8, 9, 10, 13, 14, 15 and 18.
Something that comes back
The opposition of Mars in Leo accompanies a somewhat nervous period, during which it is possible that relational problems arise, or (more likely) that unaddressed, not completely resolved or overcome issues resurface. In fact, Mars returns to this position after a similar passage in Leo between the beginning of November and the beginning of January, although limited to the first decade and slowed down by the retrograde. During that period, there may have been competition at work or friction in the relationship, or that you yourself felt restless, annoyed by something or someone, for reasons that are not entirely clear or evident. In any case, it may be useful to think back to what happened or what you felt then, to better understand what is happening or what you feel now. Obviously, it is not a given that the same situations will recur (the circumstances are different, like the celestial configurations), but certain motivations could be similar, certain arguments could arise again, certain traces of resentment could draw attention. And it is true that now the fast planets support you with their sextiles, however Mercury from May 10th brings itself into dissonance, so it would be better to take advantage of the first part of the astrological month to understand, explain, process experiences and emotions lived, as well as to talk about them with any people involved. And thus avoid dragging further, or worse aggravating, uncertainties and bad moods.
Defend yourself from interference
Undoubtedly, the sextile of Mercury in the third field in Aries , however proactive and stimulating, could push you to affirm your opinions or defend your positions in a way that is not only clear, confident, decisive (which is certainly a good thing), but sometimes too decisive and a bit brusque, in any case not exactly diplomatic... An attitude of this kind, in conjunction with the opposition of Mars , can in short expose you to polemical discussions or even quarrels, motivated at work by an undercurrent of rivalry or other annoyances. For example, it is possible that there are annoying role interferences within collaborations, which lead you to react with impatience and to be unable to tolerate judgments of merit, unsolicited advice, and even worse, any criticism. It may also be that some operational choices to be shared are conversely hindered by disagreements, different approaches, and that all this slows down productivity, consequently increasing dissatisfaction. Starting from May 10, with Mercury in square , it is important to avoid energy dispersion and concentrate on the most delicate issues, especially if of an economic or administrative nature. This also applies to the family sphere, in joint decisions with relatives or ex-spouses. The sextile of Venus protects sentimental relationships and at least in the first ten days of May couples will be able to defend spaces of intimacy, sheltered from family or work stress. In any case, try to maintain a constant, deep, honest dialogue, so as to prevent misunderstandings or resolve them quickly. Social life offers entertainment, stimuli, opportunities to make new interesting acquaintances.
First decade
Mars will be opposed until May 10, and from the 10th to the 16th Mercury will be dissonant. It is a demanding period, between emergencies and stressful unforeseen events, during which you will be restless and easily irritable. Take into account the risk of abruptly venting with loved ones, even if they are not to blame. And at work, be careful not to see enemies where there are none!
Second decade
Mercury will be in sextile from April 26 to May 4, Venus from May 15 to 26, while the opposition of Mars will begin on the 10th. The period is a bit tiring but you will not lack emotional, mental, practical resources; nor will you lack opportunities to relax, have fun, regenerate yourself in the company of your partner or friends. If you are single, there could also be interesting encounters.
Third decade
Your Uranus is always dissonant but on April 24 Jupiter moves into trine , while the faster Mercury gives you its sextile from May 4 to 10. If you have to make important decisions, if you are facing changes related to the house, family or work, you can count on support or useful advice. Even on the economic level things are starting to go better.
