Back into the Fire & Renewal: Uranus in Aries 2018-2019

Four months of Uranus in Aries after a brief entry into Taurus will see several standout features resume
From November 6 2018 to March 6 2019 the heat, fire, anger, impatience, aggression and assertiveness  commonly associated with Aries - at its worst indicating an imbalanced condition of excess Yang will be evidenced in particular people, natural forces and environmental conditions that resonate with this potential.



The force supplied courtesy of Uranus is sudden, unpredictable, unusual and capable of generating pronounced change.
The Camp Fire and similar wildfire outbreaks in California arose in November as Uranus moved back into Aries  - and coinciding with the amplifying potential of Jupiter locked into the same pathway as Uranus -both at 29 degrees. Mass consequences for homes, families and structures in general were written in the stars as the 29 degree solar-lunar nodal points were equally captured at the very same time period in a monumental display of natural forces.

Nature has its own inherent deeply intelligent processes and fire plays a crucial role in the renewal and regeneration of forest ecology. People affected by such an event are being pressured to discover that same capacity to start a new cycle.

When in Aries Uranus is highly likely to manifest through particular people [with the inherent potential] as being too hot - overheated and or bad tempered, impatient, irritated, with subsequent aggression.

The Uranus connection to accidents - especially in Aries - is common-place: impatience, risk-taking and speed resulting in vehicle crashes.

Aries likes to assert the Self and can equally be accused of selfish behaviour or commended for bravery.  Being in the military or the boxing ring or Formula One racing are some of the environments that have Aries qualities.

Some people are born with an undeveloped capacity to assert themselves -or early life can literally knock that potential out of them. For some this can relate to being too Yin and not enough Yang -and typically women need more yang, men need more yin. Yang is the ability to know who you are, what you want and go for it -but generations of women have repressed those urges in favour of being the caregiver to everyone else at home and at work. Eventually frustration, tiredness, ill health are the consequence of longterm denial of the need to focus on balancing out the give and take.
When Uranus is paired with Aries during a period of transit [usually 7 years -this period began in 2011] a new level of confidence or a change in self expression can be on offer for those whose development has been held back.

This last chance Aries window for many decades [Uranus has a cycle of close to 84 years] is now - Nov 6 2018-March 6 2019 -for those who want to renew themselves through fearless, assertive, conscious Me time.
You've put it on hold for long enough. If the real you has been ignored now's your best chance to be who you want to be.

In the heat of a crucible alchemy can take place

APRIL 2018 - ARIES astrology notes

April 2018 begins under the influence of the March 31 Full Moon which has lots of baggage on board - and will flavour the whole month up to the April 30 Full Moon
Aries is associated with the head-butting forceful Ram
Aries energy rises up from March 20/21 and is in effect until April 20
When the Sun is in Aries the often too pushy, too raw and immature Mars energy is on display in the realm of interacting with others.
Volatile energy noted as arising in March persists through April - this encompasses keywords like fiery, explosive, aggressive, combustible, destructive
  • complicating matters is the collection of planets all contributing to the theme of relating
  • [Mercury, Saturn, Uranus Pluto all in Cardinal signs Aries and Capricorn, Full Moon in Libra]
  • The War and Peace aspects have to be handled skillfully
  • Saturn is strongly modifying the March 31st full moon and will arise as either lessons in restraint -realised after the fact [eg after the argument] or the opportunity to avert conflict by slowing down the high speed energy that otherwise risks an outright showdown
  • This amount of emphasis and complexity is set to deliver a lot of showdowns, confrontations between the hot headed sometimes ruthless Aries energy and the need to modify, pull back and show greater Capricorn-style mature self discipline. This can occur within a person's own contradictory warring nature or between 2 opposing people eg in a work or domestic environment - or as in a Police [authority figure] versus angry armed man [Aries].
  • whatever the context it is a battle between two energies that need to be resolved and the way forward is the calm, mature resolution otherwise fatalities are very likely in worst case scenarios.
  • all this intensity is imbedded in the linked planets at the end of March full moon but the themes are sustained on particular days in April. Dates are Universal Time or GMT so need adjustment in some time zones.
  • April 2 has the Aries energy magnified, along with Leo adding to the natural forces of fire and heat in the environment and people. Best to avoid high risk encounters or situations where arguments, accidents assault or injury could occur
  • April 5 Heated relating dynamics high risk. Need to restrain anger, cool down heat, put out fire, soothe burns if on the receiving end of a volcanic outburst.
  • April 9-10 risks due to speed, accidents
  • April 11-26 especially April 18 a two week period beginning with angry assertions changing the quality of relationships and during which power-seekers [political and private-life] will really feel like rattling their swords - displays of power or threat in order to seek control. The 18th is consistent with angry minds, survivalist drives seeking power/control, sudden aggression/violence/accidents.
  • [news update: high profile event on April 18 involving a woman partially sucked out of a plane after a window exploded ]
  • The 26th is difficult with a sharemarket/assets/financial impact..a mood of confusion..sober reality challenges naivety/confidence

scroll down for more related news reports & updates

    More personal effects 
  • April 11 Love versus possession is a theme in relationships dealing with power issues, control, anger, jealousy. Issues of delayed or deficient emotional development lay beneath and need resolving. Energy of mass death activated
  • April 16 New Moon - from the 14th issues begin arising re appropriate/inappropriate behaviour, immaturity versus acting like an adult, being selfish versus being in a guiding supportive role. Anger /aggression could arise in encounters where such issues arise for discussion/argument. Stay off the alcohol if things are about to blow.
  • April 26 two sets of planets are adding to the stress and frustration levels. Best to aim for the high ground and not sink to the level of your adversary. Violence is elevated in certain people with the Pluto-Mars killer theme in effect
  • Take a deep breath before the next full moon on April 30 sustains the challenging themes related to love, possession and the pressure to function as an adult.
The Environment
  • Environmental effects bringing ongoing intensities in natural forces are sustained in relevant locations during this forecast period especially during the first 10 days of April eg tropical cyclone developing near Fiji March 31st
  • A full or new moon has typically a full lunar month of influence, effects being emphasised on days when other planets align. Often events with very relevant energy will happen exactly at full/new moon but equally common are events in the few days of build-up [waxing phase] or the days after [waning phase] 
  • Unless otherwise stated forecasts are globally relevant. Environmental and seasonal variability across the globe means that normal local patterns need to be the context when extreme weather is indicated eg cyclone if in a cyclone zone, snow in a snow zone. 

news updates reflecting content forecast


April 18-19 was definitely accident energy for some, [see update in text] intense energy activations for others

April 13 update re Fiji extreme weather:
2 tropical cyclones hit Fiji in the alert period of the first 10 days of April -TC Josie and TC Keni. multiple fatalities, strong winds and severe flooding after torrential downpours - video Fiji Met Service report on Keni

These 2 events confirm the significance of the extreme weather forecasting method used by this website
April 12

April 11
Mass death activated by Sun-Jupiter-Pluto in synergy -Algerian plane crashes with 257 deaths
Tweets from the US President reflect the energies of war and peace typical under Aries-Libra influence and with the extra pressure of the influences noted for April 11

April 10
As noted in the main report for April: severe weather effects were anticipated due to related energies building during the first 10 days - and April 10 saw significant events across New Zealand and tornadoes in Fort Lauderdale Florida US
New Zealand suffers storm effects including high winds the occasional tornado, snow, hail and thunderstorms - with lots of tree damage report
report#2

Astrological aspects of severe weather
As reported repeatedly on this site the methodology for identifying severe weather -called 27-12 - was used in this prediction. Uranus at 27-28 degrees, lunar nodes at 12-13 degrees prevailed from the start of April and were effective at the prior full moon of March 31 -meaning that the building forces were in process for over a week before Venus reached 12 degrees on April 10. The Moon also would have reached 12 degrees on that day - demonstrably providing all the necessary triggers for the existing forces. Note: the mathematics rule - ahead of qualities relevant to zodiac signs

March 31
Perfectly timed for the Aries-Libra full moon of March 31 was the Joshua-Parker heavyweight boxing title match in the UK. Both fighters had strong activations but Joshua born with Saturn in Capricorn was having his Saturn Return - a time when all the hard work can pay off -or not. But going by Anthony Joshua's highly successful boxing career it was more than likely this match would be his.
Many expressed frustration the referee [Saturn] controlled [Saturn] the fight too much, slowing [Saturn] it down. No surprise that the eenrgy of Saturn in Capricorn angled at 90 degrees was strongly impacting the Aries-Libra full moon when the fight occurred.

Aries is signified by the warrior, the battler, the aggressor, the soldier and so any adversarial encounters especially where weaponry is used are typically more prominent in periods of Aries energy as well as when it's related planet Mars is in a strongly activated position.
In people who are not Aries [Sun] or lacking any planet in Aries, the typical combative energy can also be expressed by the opposing zodiac sign Libra or in anyone who has planet Mars emphasised.

Profiling October 2017: Wild Forces

Wild Forces in the natural atmosphere and in human conduct from early October 2017

Apocalyptic scenes have accompanied the sheer quantity of fires fuelled by wind in the California wildfires which arose from October 8.
The documented status of the situation is reflective of the severity of the forces involved

Extremes in weather, extremes in the force of natural elements have been expressed in this same
time frame as fire, wind, water or rain, lightning, seismic and volcanic unrest.

Disturbed natural elements and forces are inescapably connected to the human condition -and express as agitation, anger, aggression, violence, anxiety, distress, irritation, impatience.

Human and non-human energies struggle to find balance under particular conditions.
The mutual feedback makes this even more intensified: natural extreme forces disturb humans and the disturbed energies expressed by humans alter the balance of natural elements and forces.

In New Zealand in the time frame October 6-10 there were multiple motor vehicle crashes leaving 14 dead and at least 19 injured. This highly unusual spike in road deaths in such a short time frame is reflective of the impact of the prevailing disturbances upon human decision making and behaviour


All of these events -human and elemental are connected and occurring under the same influences

What's Going On?
The off-planet forces affecting us.

The fact is we are a very small planet subject to the extreme forces in our solar system and when there is a violent force generated out there Earth gets the consequences.

The exact opposition of Jupiter and Uranus occurred on September 28 at a very significant position - 27 degrees. This is the centre of our Milky Way Galaxy in 2017 and past research into extreme forces on this blog indicates that planets transiting in the range 25-29 degrees serve as funnels for the extreme forces of that galactic centre location 

But not only 27 degrees is a connection point - the 12 degree position is also involved - and when a bunch of 27 and 12 are observed - like September 28 2017 when Neptune sat at 12.15 degrees - then the forces of 3 planets are funnelling the extremes.
By October 11 Jupiter left the sign of Libra -being 3 degrees away from exact opposition with Uranus at 27 Aries - but the forces tapped into 13 days prior remain potent and still in an interacting mode with the planet's atmosphere, elements and people.
The midpoint of the Jupiter-Uranus opposition shifting to 28-29 degrees remains in force in the period Oct 11-18 and therefore would continue to show the sorts of imbalances outlined.
What intensifies the outcomes could be indicated by Jupiter now entering Scorpio [ the full period being October 10 2017 to November 8 2018 ]
One of the indicators of Jupiter in Scorpio in the human realm is mass fatalities -due to those people in the population who have the capacity to inflict such an outcome -or due to natural forces.
Pluto - the planetary indicator of all things connected to Scorpio is likely to be an aggravating force when in negative connection with another planetary force.
In October this is 9-10-11 when Pluto links to the Sun and Mercury and 27-28-29th when Pluto links to Venus.

Though Uranus has more to deliver, Pluto and Jupiter are also ones to watch now and in the months ahead and into 2018 due to the extreme forces that arise when they are unleashed environmentally and through particular people.

During enhanced threat periods such as this, individual welfare will be improved by careful self management and well-reasoned decision-making.


This site has several entries on the galactic centre locatable through the search bar [click magnifier icon to right on title page]
An article located after today's posting has some interesting findings from another astro-researcher Paul Hewit who describes the GC:
It is a stunning source of energy, motivation, and aspiration. The Galactic Center is the Sun of our Sun. It is the source of most of the gravitational energy present in our galaxy, and probably the source of most of the energy in any chart, transformed through our own Sun.
If you have been born with any planet or axis [AC-DC, MC-IC or nodes] at 25 to 29 degrees in any sign -but especially if in Sagittarius - then that factor in your energy will be able to funnel the power of the GC
Paul Hewit noted that such people can feel "other-wordly", like they can sense their extra-terrestrial origin. They may have very unusual abilities


Further posts on this blog will update the advisories.

Uranus aggravates Full Moon

October 2016 Full Moon -Sun in Libra, Moon in Aries -with Uranus opposite the Sun and Conjunct the Moon

News reports consistent with expected aggravations from Uranus in tight aspect to the October 2016 Full Moon:
Multiple events with the same signature in a short time frame of the day before full moon to 1-2 days after the 16th.
Many of the events resulted in at least one fatality

  • destructive combustion events
Explosion Explosion Explosion Explosion

Violent aggression with weapons -stabbing stabbing stabbing stabbing shooting

  • transport crashes/accidents
crash work accident boat capsize plane crash plane crash bus crash several vehicle crashes bus crash


These 3 categories are commonly observed with this combination of planet-sign energy......
Though fatalities are common, singular and multiple as seen in reports cited, the range of effects from the prevailing aggravating forces also include injury without death - and more widespread but of lesser severity in consequences, interpersonal dynamics that are heated, argumentative, aggressive, passionate.

Dylann Roof astro-profile -why him? why then? - Charleston shooting

Dylann Roof June 2015 mugshot


Charleston, South Carolina, is in shock following a mass shooting in the historically black Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal church that left nine dead.
Dylann Roof a 21 year old white man is in custody, identified on CCTV leaving the scene, where he had sat for an hour before the carnage occurred.
Roof was arrested in North Carolina.
Prior arrests this year in Feb [drug possession] and April [trespass] were yet to be adjudicated 
The big questions arise in high profile events:
Why Him? Why Now?
 The wanted poster for Roof supplies a birth date of April 3 1994
 Without a full birth time and place of birth, the full picture of what energies and expressions flowed through the mind body and soul of this individual is not available.
However in hi-profile events there are always multiple or very significant indicators which will provide clues.
We can look at the prevailing pattern.
The collection of energies in play.
Then those factors are cross-referenced to the birth energies to look for matches and activations.
Since we are all embedded in the flows and forces of a solar system, we experience impulses in the mind and body. 
Refer to Sunday April 3 1994 and the planets and positions used in this astro-analysis related to Dylann Storm Roof.
Standard timing is referenced to 0 hours Universal Time [UT]
 
The standout factors are:

Sun in Aries, Mercury-Mars conjunct in Pisces, Jupiter in Scorpio, conjunction of Pluto in Scorpio-north Lunar Node Scorpio.
The combination of Aries and Scorpio and the roles played by their related planets Mars and Pluto give an insight into the degree of mental aggravation, anger, hatred that may usually have simmered beneath the surface of a guy with the capacity to be seen as weak, soft, flaky [Mars in Pisces]. This Piscean energy is very hard for males to channel positively in a world that has returned to superhero and militaristic adoration as opposed to saintly figures.
The consequence is usually drink, drugs, escapist fantasy [gaming] which provides a transient sense of invincibility. Dylann Roof is likely to have sought strength -but achieved further weakness -through the Pisces vices.
A classic passive-aggressive personality type.
Something made him explode and as is shown in countless situations [eg read the Boston Bombers astro profile on this site], the prevailing energies provide the fuse and spark leading to the inner eruption.
Complex mathematical calculations involving angular relationships are the bedrock of astrological analysis -from which meaning is derived, understanding the synergy of forces & their likely outcomes.
 June planets: various positions acted as triggers for Roof's inherent potentials

The mathematics tend to yell out loud and the activations are many.
What is clear is that over an extended period, Roof experienced an increasing unstoppable urge to commit mass murder.
Factors which spell this out to an analyst include:
The March 20 2015 total solar eclipse triggered his capacity for mass killing [Jupiter in Scorpio sesquiquadrate]
The April 4 total Lunar Eclipse at 14 Aries-Libra was so close to his birthdate of April 3 that his aggressive Aries Sun positioned at 13 degrees was targeted for full activation. Self versus others. Me versus them. Anger, desire to use weaponry. Things might not have been so extreme if if were not for the fact that when Roof was born, the Sun and Pluto were linked mathematically in a way that could only bring out the worst [Pluto sequiquadrate Sun].
It is noted that April 3 2015 was Roof's 21st birthday.
His father is reported to have given him a gun to mark that event. 
The May 4 2015 Full Moon at 13'23 Scorpio again activated his Jupiter in Scorpio [birth position est. 13 Scorpio]
Jupiter in Leo on that day at 13'33 Leo served as another aggravating activation of the killing urge. 
Love versus hate at war within.
May 18 2015 New Moon in Taurus at 27 Degrees stimulated his eruptive birth position -the controlling, annihilating force delivered by Pluto in Scorpio -at 27'46 [Roof is one of the Pluto in Scorpio generation born mid 1980's-mid 1990's]
June 9-16 Neptune was intensely impacting people with drug, alcohol, addictive escapist behavioural compulsions.
[Neptune in Pisces 9'48.9- 9'49.1] The planet was stationary retrograde  - like a like a stationary high pressure weather front, this blast from Neptune could easily have resulted in Roof going on a drug binge in the week before his fateful decision.
June 11-12 2015 the Sun and Mars in Gemini join forces at 20 degrees -aggravating Roof's birth positions of Mars and Mercury conjoined at 20 Pisces [90 degree stress event] Highly likely his mind [Gemini] turned to chemical substances - drugs and or fantasies
June 16 2015 New Moon in Gemini On the evening of Weds 17th, Roof is accused of unleashing a hate crime in a Charleston Church frequented by the Black community, killing 9 innocent people in a place of worship. 
Mars, Sun and Moon all tightly conjoined at this time in the range 24-25 Gemini. This combination mirrored his inherent capacity for aggressive thoughts. [Mars-Mercury]
Saturn an ill omen, had only just re-entered Scorpio, retrograding back from Sagittarius and hovering at the last minutes of the 29th degree. This late Scorpio energy from Saturn served to add even more negativity to the extremism of Roof's birthday Pluto in late Scorpio.
At the New Moon, Uranus in Aries [sudden aggression] linked to the position of Mercury at 5 Gemini [semisquare] adding a mood of violent thoughts -which added to the mix and may be a direct activation of Roof as well if his whole birth data was accessible for analysis.
In addition the Pluto and Saturn positions for several weeks from late May-late June 2015 were linked to an extent that triggers very negative and destructive outcomes, particularly once Saturn returned to Scorpio in mid June - two forces capable of death wishes, annihilation of self or others, symbolically or in real action.
His birth positions of Jupiter and Pluto in Scorpio have a conjoined meeting point at 20 SCO. The Moon's lunar nodes are travelling over the position which activates that extreme combination of force. This is a very karmic marker for Dylann Roof.
 Sadly, tragically, the worst case scenario for all concerned erupted in uncontrolled violence and mass deaths, and one young man has defeated and disempowered himself in a manner that will echo in his soul over and over.

Sex Offenders -profiling via astro-analysis
this post in particular looks at Pluto and Scorpio energies - showing how in some people the expression chosen is at the domination and abuse region of the spectrum. 
Compare this to Dylann Roof who looks likely to remain known for using these same impulses to commit the extreme end of the spectrum -annihilation.

April 2013: the Astrology of Sex & War

The New Moon in Aries on April 10 
and the Full Moon Eclipse in Scorpio on April 25
sum up the strong sex & war themes for April 2013
Lunar events begin their field of influence days before exactitude
 & have potentials to be triggered in the lunar month ahead

Aries New Moon keywords:
 aggression, bad temper, impatience, impulsiveness, love of danger, speed, excitement, selfish, immature, militaristic urges, weapons, hardware, tools, knives, guns, fire, arson.
This is high testosterone, high adrenalin energy needing a safe outlet - or risky ones will be impatiently selected. Sexual conquests will be on the minds of many. Frustrated drives create anger. Warlike inclinations, aggression, or at the very least military posturing are likely in global flashpoints 
Sun, Moon, Venus, Mars all aligned in a tight Aries combo plus Uranus in the same territory.
Venus and Mars conjoined in any sign is hormonally charged but in Aries it is similar to Scorpio -very intent -but without Scorpio's dominance agenda
If April 9,10 or 11 is your birthday you are likely to feel very boosted, fuelled & driven -but avoid excessive risk.
Those born on/around July & Dec 15 [any year] may be most stressed by this shot of adrenal hormone & either act out accordingly or be on the receiving end.
How can you use Aries energy positively?
Brave, fearless and pioneering risk takers, across all fields of experience, also have an important place in human evolution - but those who miscalculate are at risk of attack & injury.


The picture is further complicated by the exact [150 degree angle] Saturn-Uranus alignment on April 13.
These two forces are fundamentally incompatible;
Saturn: control, authority, discipline, restraint, conservatism, a slow, measured response, status quo
Uranus: rebellion, anti-authoritarian drives, suden urges and changes, instability
A familial archetype would be a grandad trying to caution a teenager -and with the current Saturn-Uranus standoff between Aries-Scorpio energies - that might be a warning about birth control/ sexual activities.
But energy dynamics are not one-dimensional so the impulse could initiate from either source or be synchronous.
On the global stage, an angry, aggressive, immature [Aries] rebellious force [Uranus] could act against a perceived powerful established parental overlord -with potential fatal consequences [Saturn in Scorpio]
The already developing irritations between The US & North Korea come to mind, though not exclusively resonant with this energy, in the whole global context.
Observers already have noted April 15 as a possible time for North Korea to make at least a show of force [birthday of prior leader Kim-Il Sung]
update April 15: The Saturn-Uranus pattern was locked in on the 13th but its period of effect is much longer. This alignment of Saturn Uranus is strongly implicated as adding further to aggressive potentials outlined, in respect of the bombing events in Boston -see further below.

updated : In geophysical terms:
Uranus stressing Saturn is sudden change in earth's crustal integrity.
Uranus in fiery Aries has a connection to movements in the hot molten core of earth.
Saturn is the crust and solid layers surrounding the core. Saturn in Scorpio is transformational change. The result = earthquakes and a definite uptick - many over M5.5 in mid-April includes events up to M7.8 in Iran and so far the most fatalities in China -  -the enhanced quake period could extend over 6 mnths ahead. USGS records of just the M6+ events within a week:
plus a strong shake in Mexico April 22 makes the recent period very interesting in terms of the bigger picture of widespread crustal movement [ evidence of Uranus-Saturn process]

In environmental terms:
Uranus in Aries is warm wind. Saturn in Scorpio is transformed land - which is likely to dry out and add to drought issues in vulnerable areas - particularly as the pattern ranges over the next 6 months -being exact again in early October 2013 [Saturn 10.27 Scorpio, Uranus 10.27 Aries on  October 5]


update April 12
A strong solar flare M6.5 occurred at 07.16 UT on April 11. This event produced a coronal mass ejection [CME] which will have a disturbing effect on earth's geomagnetic field - particularly from late on April 13 -peaking around 23:00 hrs and into the 14th [universal time]. This produces a geomagnetic storm event with subsequent effects on biological, environmental and electronic systems [ search Sun Flares Earth Storms on this site for background info]
screenshot from solarham shows green dot earth in the CME plasma cloud at 21:00 UT
In coinciding with the Saturn-Uranus event and the Aries New Moon period of effect, this adds a more dangerous potential to conditions already outlined. Impulsive, anarchic and hive mind responses are triggered in susceptible people in periods of disturbed geomagnetic energy

update : April 15 2013 Two near simultaneous explosions reported at finish line of Boston Marathon. Injuries and fatalities reported on this Patriots Day event

The explosions occurred at about 2:45 p.m., more than two hours after the first of the race's nearly 27,000 runners had crossed the finish line, CNN Producer Matt Frucci reported.
This development is in keeping with all recent predictions posted here due to the energy of the recent New Moon, the tensions of the Saturn-Uranus standoff, the connection between strong solar flare activity and bombings, and the indicators of the last Full Moon [ posted under March 2013] where it was forecast:
Angry, aggressive & militaristic drives are exaggerated in this phase.
Refer to Boston Bombs astro-analysis on Astroblognz

update April 26 2013
Though Sun and Mars are still close, they are now in Taurus - but still close enough to be having enduring combustible effects - NZ news reports include methamphetamine drug lab explosion; electric power line explosion - plus UK pavement explosion Pimlico London;  domestic gas explosion North Toledo; bomb explodes Karachi, Pakistan

Note: Lunar events have a period of influence from days prior to exactitude, through the lunar month ahead until the next new of full moon -event potential identified are capable of being triggered multiple times in the lunar month period of effect

update April 21 2013 & Full Moon Lunar Eclipse notes
The astrology of sex and war has definitely been reflected in global news - from explosions & war-like scenes in Boston & West, Texas, to actual military encounters in Syria,  a swarm of suicide bombings in Iraq, the darker side of male sexual aggression also in the news with the rape of a 5 year old in India, the brutal rape of a researcher in PNG

Mars has left Aries and entered Taurus, as has the Sun - which reduces some but not all of the fiery fuel & combustibility associated with Mars in a prominent alignment.
This situation will extend into the eclipse pattern, where sun, moon, venus, mars and saturn  are all connected and Uranus moves on to reconnect potently with Pluto
Essentially a Taurus-Scorpio eclipse but with the bedrock relationship of Uranus to Aquarius and Pluto to Scorpio this energy pattern will resonate strongly with all four of the fixed signs -the fore-mentioned 3 plus Leo.
So fixed-sign themes are on the agenda from the building days prior to exact eclipse on April 25th  - for a 6 month time frame.
Money, consumerism, the agricultural & horticultural sectors, the food supply, what we eat, institutional finances, death, use of power, power abuse, violence, sex, sexuality, sexual issues rape, transformational changes, the arts, electronics and inventions, children, dramatic situations, protest, people power...  
these are a sprinkling of the enormous bank of keywords of relevance to fixed signs. Astrology is a language - but one like no other. It is simultaneously ancient and futuristic in it's capacity for  being a wholistic, multi-referential system. It's relevance will be increasingly be reinforced by further scientific discoveries related to the wholistic, quantum nature of reality - consistent with the perpetual teachings of Buddhist philosophy.
The sort of mind required to comprehend astrology, Buddhist concepts and quantum reality is one capable of whole brain processing - the wholistic mind.
The involvement of Saturn, Uranus and Pluto in the mix adds stress factors to the keyword interpretations making it more likely that difficult and destructive experiences related to those categories are prominent -eg deaths related to food consumption -particularly throat constriction i.e. choking and violence/death involving strangulation; death by hanging; problems related to greed. Issues around power, control, possessiveness, jealousy
Difficulties and lessons arise in order to change and grow [a slow process with stubborn fixed signs] The fundamental Taurus security issues that relate to possession, ownership, possessiveness, jealousy, greed are based on erroneous thinking: that anything external makes a scrap of difference - because it is internal, or more accurately energetic power [Scorpio] which is the only effective state of balance, based on a state of mind that knows its inherent and natural relationship and connectedness to all things. But even Scorpios abuse their energetic power if they are yet to see the bigger picture [ accessed via Sagittarian consciousness]
So with people operating at all different levels of awareness - individual experiences with the Taurus-Scorpio issues will range from the most basic food, sex and money issues/problems right through to those seeking self discipline in food, consumption, hedonism in general including sex. There will be millions occupying both camps but few seeking the ultimate goal of energy mastery via mind training. 
Accordingly, as is the state of humanity most news in the effective period will cover difficulties people experience at the fundamental levels of energy misuse.
We are in a period of evolutionary shift due to the Uranus-Pluto combination, but not predominantly in the nature of physical evolution as in the past. 2012 marked the beginning of an evolutionary shift in consciousness which will be the hallmark of the coming Aquarian Age where the emphasis is primarily on the mind and the non-material - and digital, data, electronic versus the body and objects so fixated upon under the influence of prior earth-focussed cycles -which held reign from 1802 up until 1981 [aside from a materialistic anomaly in the present period influencing the period May 2000 till late Dec 2020]. This transition phase will see the new focus growing away from the old. By 2020 humanity faces another extensive period of emphasis away from things and concerned with ideas, concepts, information, relating.

update April 26 2013
To reinforce the intensity of Aries energy during April 2013 -the declinations graph provided by Moontracks shows how Sun, Venus, Mars  all occupied at times the same celestial latitude [parallel declination] in relationship to earth plus Mercury was in the mirror position [south, contra-parallel, April 6] -  making the emphasis on Aries even stronger -no wonder all manner of combustible and aggressive events have been noted across the globe.
At the end of April Sun and Mars remain in close parallel, maintaining the Aries theme, despite both being in Taurus
The holographic nature of the solar system means themes can be identified using diverse methods  - simple or complex and whether that is in individual or event analysis.  - visit Moontracks

update May 3 2013
In keeping with the significant Aries energy prevailing in April, the UN has noted April 2013 as the most violent in almost 5 years, in Iraq  - report
