APRIL 2022 MONTHLY HOROSCOPES

~ Sarah Murphy ~ Leave a comment
Bjork 1995 by Glen Luchford

April 2022 is one of my favourite months astrologically, due to some rare and inspiring alignments. April opens with a tricky Mars/Saturn conjunction at 22˚ Aquarius. Mars/Saturn conjunctions are notoriously difficult as two troublesome planets connect. This is the first time they have conjoined since February 2020 which was at earlier degrees of Aquarius. Expect some tension’s around there conjunction on April 8th. This will pass, but the impact of the conjunction may be profound either on a micro or macro level, depending on the placement of this area in your chart.

The following week offers up the rare and auspicious Jupiter / Neptune conjunction on April 12th. This is the first time these planets conjoin in Pisces since 1856. This combo has a heightened quality of creativity, spirituality and imagination. In 1856 the last time this conjunction occurred in Pisces the spiritualist movement was at it’s peak, having seances at dinner parties was in vogue and the colour purple was invented. The colour purple, which was an artificial colour made clothing and colour ranges more expansive and more accessible to people. The artificial nature of the textiles and the colour meant more people could access ‘finer’ clothing as they were cheaper to make.

The Jupiter / Neptune conjunction at 24˚ Pisces is a great time to be creative, dream and dive into the imagination. Hope, joy and deep faith are also significations of this conjunction. The only thing to keep an eye on is delusion, its a fine line and this conjunction does have the possibility to manifest in delusion or being duped by the deep fog of the rose tinted glasses. Its an easy transit to be swept away with. Keeping your feet on the ground as you navigate this will be very important. If you have planets aspecting these Pisces points will feel this energy more.

Closing out the month is a lovely Venus / Jupiter conjunction at 27˚ Pisces on April 30th. This juicy combo occurs every 12 years and is full of riches and good tidings thanks to Venus being exalted and Jupiter being in rulership in Pisces. They are both strongly placed and when they conjoin they influence each other in positive and harmonious ways. Which is the complete opposite to how we start April.

Enjoy ! There is some wonderful and rare combos occurring this month, dare to dream and imagine what your deepest joy and happiness might be, because this is the month to lay the foundations for it. Anything you wish to create can be done, but the trick it to keep your connection to something strong and grounded as you navigate you way through April, this helps in pulling into reality the dreams, hopes and visions that are sparked by April’s wonderful inspirational energies.

LUNAR ECLIPSE 2020 : WHEN THE ROYALS GET ECLIPSED

~ Sarah Murphy ~ Leave a comment

LUNAR ECLIPSE (Gemini & Sagittarius Axis)

30 NOVEMBER 2020 AEDT 

November 30th (AEDT) sees the second full moon in a calendar month, often referred too as a blue moon. Blue moons are actually relatively common, more common than most of the large-scale planetary alignments of 2020. 

This Full Moon is also a Lunar eclipse,  opening our eclipse season on the new Gemini / Sagittarius axis which began in Gemini season earlier this year. 

The Lunar eclipse of 30 November, as it’s a penumbral lunar eclipse, only a shadow will hit the moon, rather than the regalia of a total lunar eclipse. However, astrologically and magically, an eclipse is still an eclipse. Although not as visually spectacular as the 26 May 2021 Total Lunar Eclipse, this eclipse still has a bit bite, thanks to the conjunction of 2 of the 4 royal fixed stars.

The Sun conjoins Antares and the full Moon conjoins Aldebaran, for this eclipse, giving it a very volatile and aggressive mars like quality. Both Antares and Aldebaran are out for conquest. As these alignments are on an eclipse axis, there is a blurring or shadowing effect. 

Things are very much not as they seem. Unseen actions and power moves are at play, so drawing down this energy is potentially problematic. This is not a full moon to be playing with, unless you like to bring unexpected power plays into your life. 

Resting and staying hydrated during the actual eclipse is recommended along with keeping a low profile. Eclipse can be blind spots or quickening of events, having Antares and Aldebaran being brought into the mix, gives this eclipse some real fire power. 

Re-entering the eclipse season of 2020, it seems appropriate to have such potent points activated as we begin the wrapping up of 2020.  Watch this space, and be mindful of what you choose to do with this energy. 

Eclipse start 6:32pm     Middle/Max : 8:42pm    End  10:53pm AEDT
