Henry Seltzer – There are a few astrological factors that stand out during the April month that is upon us, and one is that Mercury is in retrograde or recovery in Aries for the entire month, counting its post-retrograde shadow, while another is the impressive April 8th solar eclipse and New Moon at 19°24’ of Aries, thus in chime with Jupiter at 19° of Taurus, and with Chiron at 19° of Aries.
This extra-potent New Moon also features combinations of personal and outer planets, to wit, Mars in close conjunction with Saturn in Pisces, Jupiter with Uranus a mere 2° away, in Taurus, Mercury in partile or same-degree conjunction with Eris, in Aries, while Venus in early Aries lies in an extremely tight parallel with Eris also.
