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

    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.

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.

• A Large Red X indicates either resigned fired [ or dead in the case of Roger Ailes] 

• Possibly of no use at all is that where known, the zodiac sign of the character is used as their forename. 
• [in 3 instances forename Secret applied where birth date not freely available] 

As A Serious Astrologer, mere Sun signs are not the usual diet of The Profiler - but they can identify basic compatibilities or the reverse - as seen when Aries Tillerson [clashing with Trump's Cancer planets ] was fired and replaced by a more compatible Capricorn Pompeo.]
In fact this cast of characters does not feature one Cancer -but all other signs have come or gone.

Going by the cast of prominent characters the most politically oriented sign Capricorn still has the edge in this fraught environment - and Gemini is of course looked upon with some degree of grace.

Of course author Virgo Wolff has to be brought to task for stating in Chapter 13 that :
"So when they did win, by the fluke alignment of the stars for Donald Trump..."
as there are no fluke alignments. 
An accurately timed birth chart is all that is needed to trace the rises and falls over a lifetime.
Confusion over Hillary Clinton's birth time and mixed indicators for both her and Trump made it impossible to make a strong prediction in 2016. As it turned out both had "wins" but January 2017 having transit Saturn capturing a lot of Trump's energy was consistent with the new level of responsibility -which manifested and was set in stone at the Inauguration.
Without top quality data, politics is too complex for an astrologer to call consistently well.

As there's no likelihood of getting a full set of data for the transient cast only the chart for the boss himself is included for reference.

March 2018 astrology - volatile forces dominate before mid-month

Astrology notes for March 2018

An uncomplicated March, mostly dominated by the sensitive and compassionate energy 

of Neptune is not on offer in 2018.

Only within the first week does the Pisces/Neptune energy dominate – Sun, Mercury, Venus, Neptune all in Pisces – but the full moon on the 2nd has Jupiter in Scorpio merging with Mercury and Venus.

Jupiter in Scorpio is such difficult energy to rein in that it typically expresses in serial offending of a sexual nature or a drive for power that can be boundless and annihilating. A person needs advanced self management to channel that extreme capacity into something bearing the energy of healing rather than abusing.

Within 2 days of the Pisces and Scorpio themed full moon former Russian spy Sergei Skripal and his daughter Yulia were found in a critical condition suffering from suspected poisoning.

Death or considerable transformation from the effects of toxic chemistry is well signposted by the Jupiter in Scorpio connection to the Pisces planets as noted at full moon.

Latest: 

The Skripals were poisoned on March 4.
On June 30 two further people found poisoned in Amesbury near Salisbury - believed also to be the nerve agent Novichok

updates appended -scroll to updates section
 for further detail

Scorpio isn't always lethal but it is often very controlling, suspicious and jealous energy.

The month of March began with Mars sitting adjacent to Pluto, then moving quickly to nudge up alongside Jupiter sequentially gathering all the necessary fuel on board to launch a killer hit.

Cardinal energy courtesy of Saturn already in early Capricorn at the start of March along with Mercury and Venus entering Aries before the end of week one  - adding to the fiery Aries style of Uranus late in its transit of that sign –bolstered as well by Mars in Sagittarius in the weekend of March 10-11. Pluto too is in cardinal Capricorn, effectively at 20-21 degrees all month

This amount of highly activated cardinal energy promises that things will begin –and end, things will be established – and fall apart, things will move at speed – and be stopped in their tracks –much much more action than under a lunar month with dominant Pisces energy.

Mid March looks especially intense.

• Fire [fire literally as well as anger, aggression and high energy] is expressed through 4 planets and the north lunar node from the end of week one and this grouping carries through to the New Moon on the 17^th
• Mars then entering Capricorn joins the cardinal division, soon joined by the Sun at the March 20/21 equinox - entering Aries – adding to Mercury, Venus, Saturn, Pluto – now a total of 6 energies in high activity cardinal signs which hold sway until the end of March.
• The action begins to build from the 11^th when Sun and Pluto link up at the same time as Mars and Uranus and Saturn with Mercury. 

• With powerful forces like Pluto, Uranus and Saturn the benign potentials don’t always get a look in as a first option and sometimes the benefits of these can only be identified in hindsight as their initial disruption, annihilation or deconstruction of life is so much in your face that no other nuanced reading of what’s going on has a chance to arise in consciousness.
• The energy on the 11^th sets up potentially violent/aggressive interactions – or at least angry communications with an underlying power struggle

Jupiter and Venus then have a merging experience in Scorpio-Aries on the 13^th and 14th - at the same time as Saturn and Venus are in mutual antipathy – passionate and consensual for some but high risk and fatal for others. Saturn is a terminating force or at least creating cold, distant, rejection. Some will see the need to end their association; some relationships ended by external forces. Interaction will for many be threaded with stinging aggression on this day.  Best to stay home alone. Or experience this virtually – watching a celluloid enactment – to use up the energy.

New Moon at 27 degrees Pisces on the 17th has Uranus tagged on at 27 Aries. 27 is a known potent degree as this is the position at which the centre of our milky way galaxy rotates -27 Sagittarius – and repeated observations have led The Profiler to a proposition that when planets sit at 27 degrees they perform a step-down of those mega forces at the galactic centre – and consequences are observable in the natural forces and sentient beings here on earth.

Typically there is much disturbance of energies under these conditions –expressing environmentally as severe or extreme weather, extreme human behaviour.

Using 15 degree analysis*

The 27 degree position of any factor is resonant with any other factor at 12 degrees 

*A detailed explanation is available in this dedicated post.

The March New Moon has Venus at 12 degrees.

So Venus is strongly involved in the Sun-Moon-Uranus combined energies. 

Disrupted relationships. Sudden change in relationships.

The 27-12 formula extends to a wider orb of positions -especially  the range 25-29 degrees straddling the 27 position being considered strongly effective. This range then activates 10-14 degrees so the resonant pairings are 25-10,  26-11, 27-12, 28-13, 29-14

The March New Moon has 3 factors at 14 degrees –lunar nodes, Mercury, Neptune while Mars is at 29 degrees

In human affairs Mars-Neptune often expresses as drug/alcohol energy as well as deceitful dishonest behaviour, sexual fantasy, porn addiction. Any of these issues or related behaviour could be exposed and discussed with some drama under the lunar phase from mid March-mid April.

• Environmentally the disturbance is always about unbalanced natural forces –which cannot be separated from human imbalances and extremes as both planes of existence are in mutual feedback.
• Our behaviour towards each other is worsening our environment far more than through observable and measurable pollution.

• All four forces of nature are activated strongly in March: Fire through Aries and Mars, Earth through Saturn, Wind/Air through Uranus and Neptune influencing Water - and so where the balances are not in place then any or all of these can be eruptive, violent, excessive, destructive. 

Knowing the potential climate/weather hazards in your own environment and how to be prepared in advance for the most likely elemental risk is common sense.

• March 2018 is not a period suitable for taking chances or risks whether that is with the forces of nature or with people who are about to tip or explode.

Late in March Saturn and Mars together in Capricorn are at 90 degrees to the Sun in Aries while Venus is together with Uranus in Aries.

• The stresses and strains of relating are on high alert in all contexts not just personal and private but in business and political contexts.

• More partnerships, marriages, associations and contexts where negotiation and interaction are required are subject to sudden break-up or breakdown.

Fundamentally the cardinal signs [Aries Libra Cancer Capricorn] are all about relating – to Self to Other to those needing to be nurtured guided or managed.

The onus is on all of us to get this right and the deterioration in this fundamental familial structure has already shown us how much can go wrong in the world when we lack even basic relating skills such as empathy, support, negotiation, compromise. 

Further than this is the necessity of passing through the appropriate stages of emotional development in order to function as a balanced adult. 

This critical issue has been overlooked in a world driven by economic agendas and financial pressures but when the fundamental unit of human society, the family, fails in its purpose, we all fail.

Saturn in Capricorn for a 3 year period will raise this issue of the family-society connection.

At those periods every year when Saturn is at odds with Venus or the Sun relating issues and responsibilities will be confronted by many.  

Conflicts between people over the preferencing of the Self over the responsibilities to others - the need to move away from child-like self-interest and towards an adult role prioritising support of others – one partner telling the other “you need to grow up” “you’re a parent now –start acting like it” –these are the voices of Saturn saying Times Up – definitely a hard awakening for those embedded in the Selfie era of self glorification above everything and everyone –and there are connections to the original #TimesUp calling out those who place no boundaries on their own conduct towards others. 

People who show no restraint are effectively acting like unaccountable children operating within adult bodies in adult environments. Time to work on the mismatch.

Firstly 2018 January-February-March-April all contain indicators that severe natural forces are activated in the environment and in human affairs -with the theme of structural collapse persisting in all contexts -ranging from natural structures such as hillsides, shorelines, riverbanks and vegetation to humanly built structures, human networks whether digital or social, business or political. All aspects of our lives and environments are undergoing a massive change and renewal. 
This is a very long term process and the pattern outlined and sustained in the first 4-5 months has activation potential through to August 2018. However a further cycle begins in 2018 signifying earth changes. When Uranus is in Taurus [mid May-early November 2018, early March 2019-late April 2026] the earth itself and its products and related industries, human production of goods, sources of income, our relationship to money and possessions, the physical/material in general are all likely to be expressed in new, different, innovative ways or become very changed. Miniaturisation is one of those processes -objects shrinking, the digitisation and virtualisation or other physical objects/experiences is another. Lab-food or experimental food or unusual -eg insects as food -all of these things already being floated as all collective events cast their shadow before they fully arrive.
update March 18 2018 - New Foods -The changing face of food production examined

The earth changes on the horizon from mid 2018 not only involve changes in the condition and structure of the soil [due to water imbalances like drought or flood] but also changes due to tectonic movement and so astrological analysis confirms the scientific view of locations like New Zealand being in a long term era of increased seismicity, land movement, structural land collapse and uplift. 

Effectively the warnings are already on the table for those who wish to see - certain locations are now hazard zones due to water, wind, landscape and seismic effects and long term plans are needed on a personal, local and national level to promote greater public and personal safety.

So Saturn Chiron Neptune plus a Scorpionic theme.

Sat 30 June was also 2 days after a Full Moon -  this time with Saturn in tight opposition, Jupiter Neptune and Venus all in close contact ..Uranus square Mercury -both in fixed signs around 2 degrees - Taurus/Leo [activating Scorpio/Aquarius too -giving nerve death signature]  ...Chiron close to 2 degrees adding strong debility. The similarities in prevailing energy seem very strong perhaps too strong to be coincidental.

Generation Change -the Youth Now Ready to be Heard

A generation now finding its voice can arguably be labelled Generation Change: they were born with change and idealism in their DNA and they will not remain unheard

New Yorker on the #NeverAgain movement

• The astrological DNA gifted to those born from mid January 1996 to late December 2003 involves the pairing of Uranus and Neptune in Aquarius.
• Aquarius is the zodiac energy most associated with social justice
• Uranus is the planetary force operating at its strongest when transiting Aquarius
• Neptune is the compassionate force and is very compatible with the collective consciousness that is highly valued by Uranus and Aquarius.
• Jupiter the planet related to beliefs and philosophy was in Aquarius in 1997 adding further strength to egalitarian principles

In America under the banners of #NeverAgain and #ParklandStudentsSpeak #StudentsStandUp these young people -the oldest reaching age 22 in 2018, the youngest, 14 - are ready for social change, ready to speak, ready to protest. The spark for their arising has been yet another instance of mass shooting in a school - the latest in a chronic and shameful timeline of slaughter in US educational environments.

The February 2018 Solar Eclipse was an activator of this strong Aquarian uprising.

The mass killing at a Parkland high school in Florida occurred on the day before the eclipse in the building phase of the energies, a time frame known for strong outcomes.

The Sun and Moon were conjoined with Mercury -all in Aquarius at the eclipse.

Saturn and Pluto were in the accountability sign -Capricorn

Venus and Neptune were in Pisces -spreading compassion and idealism 

Mars in Sagittarius energises people's beliefs - to take action over what you believe

Jupiter in Scorpio not only expresses as the mass death event but also as the capacity for mass empowerment -thereby being a perfect time to combine all of the above planetary forces to speak out about Change.

Uranus in February 2018 was at 25 Aries -a combination promoting energetic change - linking in to the Sun-Moon-Mercury positions at the eclipse - sitting in the range 24-27 degrees of Aquarius

Jupiter in 2018 is especially activating people of this group who were born May 2000-May 2001

Eclipses have a typical period of effective activation over a 6 month period -until the next solar eclipse in this case. For this reason events around the time of an eclipse - days of approach and days after exactitude - are definitely signifiers of globally significant issues.

In America the issue is continual mass slaughter due to easy access to weaponry during a high risk era of declining quality of mental health.

In other countries this Generation Change will have other issues that will bind them in collective agitation to challenge the status quo. America is in crisis and the whole world is watching and the ripples of activism will spread. The internet is an Aquarian/Uranian technology, with connecting communicating and sharing visions of social justice at the very core.

• This powerful pairing promises further young minds coming into life stamped with an intention of achieving social justice, empathy and compassion - because we're all in this together - and is set to deliver a huge cohort of inspirational humanitarians as most people born up until early March 2011 have these very redeeming qualities.

Astrological Factors

• As 2017 came to a close Jupiter in Scorpio reached 16 degrees - arousing an instinctual craving for huge [Jupiter] empowerment [Scorpio] 16 degrees  began to activate an array of entangled energies present on Cruz's birthday by firstly engaging his: Sun, lunar nodes, Saturn [all at 1-2 degrees] and his Chiron by close conjunction. With Scorpio the context of power is commonly aligned with an annihilation instinct.
• As New Year 2018 began, Saturn reached 1 degree Capricorn - presenting significant "now it is time for you to grow up", "you're alone now" messages. He was disconnected from his birth parents and now totally from his adoptive parents. Cruz was born when the Sun was at 1 degree Libra so Saturn's effect was destabilising. How Cruz interpreted these kinds of thoughts is explained by the role played by Neptune [exact alignment with Mercury] Cruz had strong capacity for living life through fantasy delusion, imagination, unmodified by reality.
• Jupiter in Scorpio being a strong general indicator of mass death events as well as mass empowerment [#MeToo movement] during this cycle [Oct 2017-Nov2018] is highly significant in this context as it progressed from 17 degrees at New Year [activating Cruz's 17 degree Chiron [key vulnerability] in Scorpio [deeply wounded throughout his life to date by a sense of disempowerment] By end of January strengthened by the total lunar eclipse [an amplifying force] Jupiter at 21 Scorpio now activated Cruz's Venus at 21 Virgo, Mars at 21 Leo, Jupiter at 22 Pisces setting off the inherent forces he possessed to take action [Mars] in a very dramatic way [Leo] in a large [Jupiter] social [Venus] context.
• Pluto in Sagittarius at his birthday has options including a transformational philosophy or a belief in annihilation. Positioned at 6 degrees this signal was embedded at birth for Cruz: Pluto was entangled with the tight grouping of Venus, Mars and Jupiter [6 degrees and 21 degrees resonate using 24th harmonic analysis]
• Pluto in transit from New Year 2018 covered less than 2 degrees of movement -from almost 19 degrees to just over 20 degrees by February 14. With Jupiter at 22 degrees by that date the middle point of 21 was being activated from 2 sides, a combining of two of the most potent cosmic forces in slow transit acting on birth Pluto, Venus, Mars, Jupiter. This amount of pressure was not containable within someone so damaged.

The birth data below provides prevailing energies evident on the date of Cruz's birth. This alone is used in the above analysis and though some aspects are inaccessible due to no time or location data, the birthday information often spells out the standout features of a personality.

Though born under a Libran sun - more known for peace- all sign energies belong to a quartet and can flow between the personality aspects of their grouping -especially the opposing sign. Belonging to Libra Aries Cancer Capricorn with Aries opposite Libra allowed Cruz to project himself strongly towards the aggressive Aries-Mars option especially with the intense and attention-seeking Mars in Leo he possesses.

This analysis is an explanation. Not a defence. When powerful forces combine and collide in nature as in humans some degree of destruction is the likely outcome. Humans though have the opportunity to at some point develop regulating mechanisms.

It is easily detectable using methodology such as this to identify the regularity of certain people being born under such destructive prevailing forces and it is only a matter of time before activating forces in transit cause birth potentials to escape the confines of the mind and be expressed outwardly - a combination of activators is typically involved in high profile events.

Without a self managing capacity a human being is capable of the force of a hurricane because we equally derive our energy from the same galactic environment.

Fortunately most of us are blessed to have access to those forces which can deliver more goodness than harm.

Cruz's reported birthdate 24 September 1998

February 22 2018

On February 17 students organised a response to the massacre at their Stoneman Douglas School, Fort Lauderdale. Fronted by Emma Gonzales [18],  this was a sign of a new movement #NeverAgain and the intention to march in protest [March 24 March for Our Lives]

High profile Americans including Oprah, the Clooneys, Steven Spielberg have immediately contributed to the funding of this new movement.
