Weekly Forecast for March 31 - April 6, 2025

Note:  the dates in this forecast are for Pacific to Eastern time.  

Unless I provide a specific timeframe, we’ll feel the energies 24-72 hours in advance of the date I mention (the date when the planetary alignment is exact).  They will be gaining in strength as they approach the date.  We will also feel them for 24-48 hours after, but they will be losing strength with each passing hour.

Neptune is now freshly in Aries, as of March 30.  This is a very significant energy shift which, together with Pluto in Aquarius, can lead to de-globalization 😔 among other things.  You can find my post on Neptune in Aries here.  When Uranus, Neptune or Pluto change signs, they bring a generational shift:  something that shapes the planet for years to come. 

So that's the big astro-news.  As far as this week: 

Early in the week, the supercharged energy of the Solar Eclipse in Aries will still be felt, so don't get surprised if you feel some jumpiness.  And of course, Venus and Mercury are still retrograde...but, the end of this year's heavy retrograde period is in sight!  Mercury will be turning direct on April 7.

This also means that April 3-10 is a high danger zone for Mercury Rx-related mishaps, as the worst of it often happens in the days just before and after Mercury changes direction.  Read the fine print if you must sign legal documents, and check the distribution list for sensitive emails or texts!  Yes yes, I know...I say this during every Mercury Retrograde...but, just this week, in a massive Mercury Rx moment, a magazine journalist was inadvertently added to a group chat in which Trump administration representatives discussed highly sensitive war plans, leading to a highly publicized information breach. Don't let it be you, even if on a much smaller scale 😆

Even with Mercury and Venus still in retrograde, this is a very powerful week.  On April 4, Saturn and Mars sextile Uranus, and Mars trines Saturn!  They are all sending harmonious vibes to one another.  Use this week to advance your business or career.  Start working on a long-held dream project.  Watch for unexpected insights and flashes of inspiration.

And on the weekend, take advantage of the lucky Sun-Jupiter sextile 🪄and a hot Venus-Mars trine 🔥🌶️ Charge a citrine for luck OR book a hot date with your sweetie!

Here are some notable astro-happenings of this week:

✨  April 2:  Waxing Moon in Gemini

It can be difficult to relax and get a good night's sleep when the Moon is in Gemini.  The mind can be over-active.  Turn off your electronic devices at least 2 hours before bed, and do some restorative yoga instead of scrolling.  Or take a relaxing bath with lavender! 

On the plus side, with the Moon supported by the Sun and lucky Jupiter, this is a good day for networking and learning something new. 

✨  April 4:  Saturn sextile Uranus;   Mars sextile Uranus; Mars trine Saturn

Wow, this is a lot of industrious energy! We'll feel it all week,  but it will peak on April 4.  Business matters may be highlighted this week.  In your personal life, these energies are supportive of business or career matters (just remember that Mercury is still retrograde). 

If you have the planets or angles (Ascendant, Descendant, MC or IC) between 17-23° Pisces, Cancer or Scorpio, you're particularly likely to reap the benefits of this energy.  Check the Houses (=areas of your life) these signs and degrees fall in your chart, and your natal planets that are activated.
