Welcome to April 2025 – Hello and welcome to April 2025! After the whirlwind energy of March, the Solar Eclipse on March 29 and Neptune’s shift from Pisces into fiery Aries, we are all overwhelmed, emotional and tired. Now April comes in with calmer planetary aspects, which restore momentum, spark manifestation, and clear the way for progress. With eclipse season behind us and planetary retrogrades untangling, there is a light at the end, making this the perfect time to realign with your desires. If you've been feeling stuck (with Venus and Mercury both retrograde, expect solutions and clarity to return in baby steps, especially toward the third week of April.
Before we get the details, let me share some “color energy” hints. To work with the energy of this month, holistic tools can help your focus, emotions and confidence. If you are interested in stone elemental energies, fire and earth elements dominate. Citrine, Pyrite and Tiger’s Eye crystals will be powerful allies, strengthening stability, motivation and prosperity. Colors also hold vibrational energy — gold and yellow enhance clarity, green promotes heart healing, and red fuels action and courage. As we move through April’s planetary shifts, these tools will help align your energy with the opportunities ahead.

Again – because it is important!! Try to stay in gratitude, stillness, peace, love, bare feet on the ground, feeling the Oneness of all living beings. Can you blend with the animals, the trees perhaps, and feel what they are feeling? This sense of merging or morphing will be using Neptune energy well, as long as you stay grounded. This energy is excellent for boosting your creativity and your spiritual practice, so meditate, do breath-work, listen to sacred music, paint, write, sing, dance . . . and imagine that you are breathing in love, and breathing out love. Take care of yourself.
MANY BLESSINGS, JULIE REEVES, https://sightedastrology.com
