Here is the Psychic Scoop Weekly Astrology Forecast for the week of April 7, 2025 – April 13, 2025
This week starts with Mercury going stationary direct on Monday, after spending the last three weeks in retrograde motion. While Mercury retrograde is known for wreaking havoc with all things related to communications, its going direct doesn’t necessarily bring instant clarity. It just doesn’t work that way. As it goes stationary, it briefly stands still (from our geocentric perspective) as does the current Mercury state.
It will still be several days before Mercury crosses its shadow point (on the 25th) and fully leaves the retrograde behind. But in general, over the next several days, we can expect all things Mercury — communications (verbal and written), schedules, plans, commitments, as well as short-distance travel and electronics devices, etc. — to start getting back to normal.

We start this week on Monday with the Moon, still new, in Taurus, the sign of its exaltation. The Moon in Taurus is calm, gentle, earthy, and sensuous. It seeks out comfort and stability while steering clear of noise, drama, and chaos. It appreciates the finer things in life and prefers to savor meaningful experiences, much like someone would savor a meal or a bottle of fine wine.
There’sone hard aspect, a square to Pluto in the early morning hours, and then it’s basically smooth sailing for the remainder of the day. With all that in mind, this could be a good day to lounge around the house, listening to music, baking, decorating, and — depending on where in the world you are located — landscaping and gardening. These are all Taurus Moon activities, with the idea of comfort, luxury, and getting in touch with nature and the earth being the corresponding theme.

This week starts on Monday with Mercury conjuncting the Sun at 4° Aries. As Mercury’s still retrograde, this is its inferior conjunction, meaning that it’s passing between the Earth and the Sun and is completely obscured from view by the Sun’s bright rays. In the coming days, Mercury will rise again as a Morning Star, once it reemerges from behind those rays.
The Mercury / Sun conjunction is what’s known as combust (or in this case — when the conjunction is exact — cazimi). This is also known as “at the heart of the Sun” which is said to strengthen and energize Mercury’s influence. Mercury conjunct the Sun in Aries is good for taking a stand, saying what’s on your mind, being bold and brave in your communications with others, and putting yourself out there. It’s better at talking than listening and is not so good at tact and diplomacy so keep that in mind in your interactions with others.

As we start this week — on Monday — the Moon is in Libra and the Sun is conjuncting the North Node, which means it’s simultaneously opposing the South Node. The Libra Moon is known for fairness and objectivity, with an emphasis on sharing and exchanging ideas. It’s good for social interactions that call for cooperation and collaboration, as it strives for balance and harmony.
The Sun / Node conjunction can bring someone new into your life who turns out to play a meaningful role. Particularly in terms of self-actualization or individuation. As the Nodes are said to be karmic in nature, this person may not be “new” at all, but have strong past life ties. The Sun/ North Node contact can also describe a change in direction regarding your social relationships. Examples include aligning yourself with a different group of people or inviting new friends into your circle.
Venus Retrograde — Turning Love Around
Venus — the planet associated with love, romance, beauty, money, material possessions and personal values — will be retrograde from March 2, 2025 until April 14th, 2025.
From an astrological perspective, retrogrades motivate us to review, revisit, refine and resolve challenges that are holding us back from progressing in the area related to the planet involved.
They may relate to unfinished business from past lives, or they may refer to repeating patterns in our present lifetimes. Either way, the presumption when that planet is Venus is that the challenges faced are love and relationship challenges. This includes the entire spectrum of “relationships”: romantic, familial, social, etc.
Why He “Pulled Away” — And How to Bring Him Back
We’ve all been there. To hell and back that is.
We’ve all found ourselves caught in the throes of a new romantic connection that seemed so perfect in the beginning and then died out so suddenly that we were left reeling in the aftershocks and wondering what happened?
It usually goes something like this: We meet a man who seems so promising and full of potential in the beginning that we allow ourselves to get caught up in a whirlwind romance, one that has all the markings of a long term relationship.
He comes on like gangbusters, ardently pursuing and letting us know in a multitude of ways that he’s into us.

Here is the Psychic Scoop Weekly Astrology Forecast for the week of Mar 30, 2020 – Apr 5, 2020:
We start the week with Mars leaving Capricorn behind on Monday and moving into Aquarius, where it will remain for the next 6 weeks (until May 13th). Mars transits bring action and energy to the area of a natal chart where the transit occurs. It also affects planets in a natal chart that it forms aspects to, which are in turn influenced by the sign placement (in this case Aquarius) as well as the house Mars is placed in and rules in the natal chart.
Mars in Aquarius is progressive, innovative, and forward thinking. It can also be eccentric and rebellious. It’s independant and individuated, with things like innovation, open-mindedness and social consciousness among its unique characteristics, It’s a champion for the underdog and not afraid to stand up out for those who have been marginalized or mistreated in some way.

With Saturn now in Aquarius — where it remain until the end of June before it temporarily retrogrades back into Capricorn — it’s no surprise that group and social activities have been limited for many of us. As this is the only planet in an air sign this week, and since it just so happens to be the one associated with limitations and restrictions, those restrictions are likely to be even more pronounced.
How ironic then that Monday’s two main transits (Mars conjuncting Pluto and Venus sextiling Neptune) are historically linked with sex and intimacy. Among other things. These planets are paired up nicely, with Neptune being the higher octave of Venus and Pluto being the higher octave of Mars. Venus, Mars and Neptune are all also dignified by sign.

Here is the Psychic Scoop Weekly Astrology Forecast for the week of Mar 16, 2020 – Mar 22, 2020:
We have a lot happening this week, with three planets (Mercury, the Sun and Saturn) and an asteroid (Pallas Athena) changing signs, a five-planet lineup in Capricorn and the first day of Spring.
Starting on Monday, Mercury — now in direct motion — re-enters Pisces, where it will remain for the next three weeks (until April 12th). It crosses its shadow point (the degree at which it went retrograde) on March 30th. Until that time, even though Mercury is now moving forward again, we can anticipate some of the residual affects of Mercury retrograde — including misunderstandings and miscommunications — especially since Mercury is in the sign most closely associated with the same.
Weekly Astrology Forecast — Mar 9, 2020 – Mar 15, 2020
Here is the Psychic Scoop Weekly Astrology Forecast for the week of Mar 9, 2020 – Mar 15, 2020:
This week starts with Venus sextiling the North Node (thus automatically trining the South Node) on Monday. This transit can bring people into your life who feel familiar and who want nothing but the best for you. This aspect is karmic in nature, meaning that the people you meet during this time are here to propel you toward your destiny — and vice versa.
Venus is very comfortable in Taurus — the sign it co-rules along with Libra. It ties in nicely with the sextile aspect, which is all about assistance and cooperation, Keep in mind that your actions and interactions can have far reaching repercussions during this time. So make sure you treat the people you meet with dignity and respect.

This week we have both Mercury and Venus changing signs, Mars moving back into bounds, and the Moon increasing in light and dimension as it moves toward the first Super Moon of the year.
But before all that happens, we have a first quarter Moon in Gemini on Monday, and Venus squaring Saturn on Tuesday. The first quarter Moon is tied to home, family, security, emotions and needs (among other things). This is a very sociable Moon, and while it may not be the time to try to delve too deeply into any one thing, it’s great for connecting and interacting with others.
