Retrograde Planets in April

All month, every planet moves direct – a rare stretch that is easy to get things done in.

Void of Course Moon in April

The void of course Moon is the gap after the Moon has made its last exact aspect in a sign and before it enters the next one. The classic rule is that whatever begins then "comes to nothing" – bad for launches, signatures and purchases, good for routine, tidying, rest and finishing off old things. This month has 13 of them, 135 hours in total, of them 4 long ones (over 12 hours).

Starts Ends Duration Last aspect Moon enters
April 2 April 3 27 hr 16 min Square to Jupiter in Scorpio
April 5 April 5 2 hr 03 min Opposition to Uranus in Sagittarius
April 8 April 8 2 hr 13 min Square to Mars in Capricorn
April 10 April 10 1 hr 32 min Trine to Uranus in Aquarius
April 13 April 13 1 hr 13 min Square to Uranus in Pisces
April 15 April 15 0 hr 56 min Sextile to Uranus in Aries
April 17 April 17 4 hr 06 min Conjunction to Sun in Taurus
April 19 April 19 0 hr 33 min Conjunction to Uranus in Gemini
April 20 April 21 35 hr 43 min Sextile to Mars in Cancer
April 23 April 23 0 hr 13 min Sextile to Uranus in Leo
April 24 April 25 26 hr 43 min Trine to Mercury in Virgo
April 27 April 28 21 hr 51 min Sextile to Jupiter in Libra
April 30 April 30 10 hr 10 min Opposition to Mercury in Scorpio

We count the classical (Ptolemaic) aspects from the Moon to the Sun and to the planets from Mercury to Pluto. Sites that count only the seven traditional planets get longer windows – sometimes by a day or more.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is an astrology calendar, exactly?

It is a schedule of what happens in the sky: when planets form exact angles to each other (aspects), when they move from sign to sign, when the Moon goes through its phases, and when a planet turns retrograde. A horoscope is somebody's interpretation. An astrology calendar is the raw data those interpretations are built on.

Why don't your times match another site?

Usually it is the time zone. Many astrology sites publish in Universal Time (UT), and we show Eastern Time by default, which is 4 or 5 hours behind it. That alone can move an event to the neighbouring day. The time zone switch in the panel at the top settles it in a second.

Does an aspect work exactly at the minute you list?

That is the minute it goes exact. The effect is felt wider – usually a day before and a day after, and for slow planets, for weeks. The exact time tells you where the peak is; it is not something to set an alarm for.

What do you do with a void of course Moon?

Don't start anything that matters in that window: signings, purchases, introductions, first meetings. It is excellent time for routine, for clearing the backlog, for tidying up and for rest. The windows run from a few minutes to a full day – see the table above.

Is a retrograde planet a bad thing?

No. Retrograde motion is an optical effect: from Earth the planet appears to move backward. Astrologically it is a change of mode: the planet's theme works inward and backward instead of forward. The only bad move is pushing hard at something that has no tailwind right now.

Where do these numbers come from?

We calculate the dates from the NASA JPL ephemerides JPL DE440. There is more about the sources and the checks on the methodology page.
