ASTROLOGY NEWSLETTER APRIL 15- MAY 1, 2025
We’re in the Jaws version of our collective life. This uncharted version finds us held hostage by the thing at the bottom of the ocean. Paralyzed by fear and needing courage to deal with it.
Astrologically, we have all the big planets entering new signs or having just ended in old signs. There’s big Change on all fronts.
Pluto entered Aquarius in November 2024. Since then, we saw President Trump get elected, the government take off on a bender, climate go destructo especially in North Carolina and Los Angeles, and the market go high and then freefall.
Scary events that disappear people from their lives, the illogical dissolution of government services, with the rule of law ignored.
Big earthshattering changes that are Pluto’s signature. Pluto says the same thing that eviscerates you heals you. Pluto brings a devastatation, a long period of void and then brings the garden.
We’re in the devastation phase. The hard part.
Planets at the beginning and end of the signs are the most potent and powerful in their message and their affects.
Saturn and Neptune at the end of Pisces and the beginning of Aries respectively are bringing both shock and awe in extremes of contraction and lack of boundaries.
What is reality and what is dream?
As the oceans dry up and other lands flood, the mapping of the earth goes crazier.
Uranus the Great Awakener brings lightning like changes and sudden reversals of fortune, stability and Planet Earth. It’s the lightning bolt in each life that we’re learning to ground.
How does this affect you?
Individually you might feel like you’re in a bizarro world and don’t know how to walk through it.
Uncharted territory and it’s scary in the unknown of it.
Add to that Venus is traveling with Saturn since April 3-26 and you might feel going it alone, lonely, unloved or poor. No pleasure with a lot of remorse and contraction. Times are such that what you felt was love is revealed as some other thing.
It’s a hard rain’s gonna fall where you’re not in reality. This aspect limits your cash, your love, your romance, your joy and your sense of what is beautiful. It’s all about harshness, responsibility, and practicality.
The New Moon on April 27 in Taurus is in t square to Mars in opposition to Pluto. This New Moon throws light on what we experienced the first few days of November. And involves secret power moves and manipulation in the name of security that comes from power and ego.
It’s possible in the next few months a disenfranchised group tries to control the horse that got out of the barn and puts them out to pasture.
Each of us need a new way of behaving by being able to maintain love over power. In other words lean in to life rather than separate.
This translates as being a person that supports life without binging or witholding it.
If greed and desire is loosed around you see it as the result of obsession and fear.
Be fearless as the next few months reveal a mystery at the bottom of an endless ocean that is imploding.
If you have anything that calms you; making pottery, walks on the beach, essential oil baths, a beloved cat or dog, or a way of self soothing, be calm and remember these times.
The times they are a changin’.
