The Sun enters the sign of Taurus on April 20th at 6:42 p.m., Mountain Time. Taurus is an earth sign and is associated with Venus. The Taurus personality is stable, deliberate, materialistic, successful, artistic and a bit stubborn. Taurus careers include being a banker, cosmetician, florist, musician, builder and interior designer.
There are two main astrological events occurring this month. One is the leftover Party of Planets in Aries, as can be seen in the chart I’m including. Saturn, Neptune, Mars and Mercury are all still in Aries. That is a great set up for confusion around Aries aggression. What is fake and what is real? It’s hard to tell now with AI being so prevalent.
Mercury will be in Aries until May 3rd, so use this time to make decisions and changes in your daily routine. Mars will be in Aries until May 19th. This is a wonderful time to start an exercise regime.
In addition, Jupiter in Cancer will be squaring the Aries planets for most of this month. Jupiter in Cancer is about community and society pulling together. Many people aren’t happy right now and are starting to be more visible and vocal.
Speaking of being vocal, the biggest astrological event happening this month is rebellious Uranus entering outspoken Gemini on April 25th. Uranus will be in Gemini until 2033. We are just now entering an era of enhanced communication, connections and critical thinking. Uranus ushers in the future, and Gemini is so darned smart it will enjoy helping create the future in a totally new way. I’ve written an article about Uranus entering Gemini for this newsletter. The research on the past few cycles of Uranus in Gemini is so interesting.
Looking at the visible planets, both Mars and Saturn can be seen in the predawn sky. They are still fairly close to the Sun, so they will be barely above the western horizon before sunrise. On the other hand, Jupiter and Venus are putting on a show for us in the evening sky. They will join each other in late May through mid-June for a rare celestial treat. They are going to join in the evening sky and not in the predawn sky, so they will be much easier to view. Since they are the brightest planets in the sky, it is definitely worth watching their dance.
See you next for Gemini.
