Astrology and Tarot for April 2024

In this episode of So Divine!, Stephanie and Megan explore the dynamic celestial landscape of April. They begin by reflecting upon how we are in the midst of Eclipse Season; in addition to reviewing the Libra Lunar Eclipse that occurred in March, they focus their attention on the Aries Solar Eclipse happening early April. With this lunation joined by Chiron—a celestial body that holds the archetype of the wounded healer—they discuss how this time period may offer us an opportunity to heal old wounds while also standing in empathetic witnessing of others. They explore this month’s Mercury Retrograde, which also occurs in Aries, and how important it is to marshal patience so that we don’t push forward erratically when we can experience more holistic progress by making space and slowing down our pace. They also discuss this month’s Jupiter/Uranus Conjunction, a shake-it-up alignment that occurs about every thirteen years. This time both planets reside in Taurus (which they haven’t since 1941); and with that, we may notice how practical it can be to expand our capacity for adaptability while also discovering ways that we can redefine what security looks and feels like. Stephanie chooses a Tarot card for at random and Megan explains how this often negatively viewed card—the Ten of Swords— is actually an opportunity for transformation.
