Clearer skies
At the beginning of this astrological month, Mercury is already transiting the seventh field in Aries and will remain in opposition until May 10, while Venus will enter Aries on April 30. Mars , on the other hand, ended its square in Cancer on April 18 and moved into a good sextile in the eleventh field in Leo . As for the slower transits, the first degrees are involved by the trine of Pluto in Aquarius and the opposition of Neptune in Aries , while the third decade receives the trine of Jupiter in Gemini . Despite a generally more serene sky, some nervous moments are still possible, for example on April 20, 25 and 26, May 1, 2, 16 and 17. The most effective days will be April 22, 29 and 30, May 4, 5, 9, 10, 13, 14 and 18.
Changes in progress
The square of Mars lasted from January 6 to April 18, so it has just ended; in fact, Mars has even moved into a supporting position. Yet, the hoped-for (and deserved) feeling of relief seems to arrive with an eyedropper. The oppositions of the fast planets in fact signal some traces of tension, especially on a relational level, and the accumulated tiredness does not help recovery. Let's be clear: these are relatively fast transits, perhaps a little annoying but certainly not worrying, furthermore the new sextile of Mars is added to the trine of Jupiter in a combination of great vital, psychophysical energy. Therefore, you will probably only need to be a little patient to rebalance and regenerate yourself, moreover more quickly than you think. On the other hand, as I often repeat, it is not as if life can change from a dissonant transit to a harmonious transit with the short times of the relative shift of sign! It would be unlikely to think so, even less sensible to expect it. In short, the passage from before to after can show itself in many different ways but it is never an immediate leap, rather a process during which it is necessary - and appropriate - to free oneself from certain emotional and practical residues, to process the experiences made and integrate the teaching, to then leave room for a new planning, based on updated needs and expectations. And such a passage in the present is as important as the past that it overcomes and the future that it prepares; perhaps even a little more.
Reserves of touch
At work you have no shortage of ideas, commitments, stimuli, probably not even opportunities. But it is still a good idea to organize yourself, so as to optimize your strength and dedicate the right amount of time both to the issues to be concluded, perhaps left unfinished in recent months and now more urgent, and to the initiatives to be started, to what interests you most. For negotiations, as for every important interview or delicate discussion, Mercury in the seventh field can be a resource in terms of determination, communicative frankness, confidence in making proposals or requests... but perhaps it pushes you to express yourself in ways that are too direct or even a little polemical, as if you had some small grudge to vent. In this case you will have to resort to your natural gifts of tact and diplomacy, so as to show yourself more available to mediation, to a constructive comparison. Collaborations are also favored on one hand and disturbed on the other: let's say that you will give your best if you feel supported and you yourself know how to support your colleagues, reassured by the agreement of goals and operational methods, while you could react capriciously in the face of disagreements, criticisms, different approaches. Something similar will happen in relationships, warmed by passion and a sincere desire to share emotions, dreams, experiences, but also at the risk of bickering, jealousy or touchiness. In short, everything is fine... as long as it goes well; but it would really be worth making an extra effort of tolerance, adaptation, mutual understanding.
First decade
Mars is in sextile until May 10, Venus in opposition from April 30 to May 15. In short, it is an unstable, contradictory period, with ups and downs even in mood. You are determined to promote your ideas, defending them in an unusually heated way for you; but you will know how to share the values that support them with friends, collaborators, people you trust.
Second decade
Jupiter ends its trine but leaves the task of encouraging you to Mars , which will be in sextile from May 10 to 30. Meanwhile, Mercury will remain opposed only from April 26 to May 4, but at least during those days be careful not to jump to impulsive conclusions about a person, a situation, a choice. Aside from this caution, it seems like a phase of progressive development.
Third decade
Mercury 's opposition will last from May 4 to May 10, while Jupiter will be in trine from April 24 to June 9. Overall, this is a period full of opportunities, but you should expect some misunderstandings, some disagreements at work and perhaps even some unpleasant friction with your partner. Try to remain open to dialogue.
