Weekly Astrology Forecast: Mars in Leo's Impact on April 14–20, 2025

Wisdom Transmutation of Pisces water into Firey Aires

Theme: Embodied Insight & Feminine Awakening

We begin this week with the Moon in Scorpio, a sign known for emotional intensity, truth-telling, and transformation. This is the perfect opportunity to slow down, breathe deeply, and gently check in with what’s been bubbling beneath the surface. Rather than being swept away by the emotional tides, Scorpio teaches us to alchemize our shadows into wisdom. Use this time to sit with what feels uncomfortable, name it, and let it guide you toward healing.

🗣 Mercury Enters Aries | Tues, April 15 @ 20:25 PM HST

Trine Mars in Cancer (29°)

Mercury shifts into Aries—the first sign of the zodiac—sparking bold, direct communication and a refreshed sense of clarity. This placement pushes us to speak our truth with conviction and take initiative mentally and verbally. But Mercury isn’t acting alone—it’s trine Mars in Cancer at 29°, giving our words the emotional momentum and courage to carry through.

This is especially significant because Mercury recently completed a retrograde cycle from Pisces 27° to Aries 15° (March 14–April 7). Now that it's moving forward and entering Aries fully, we’re finally seeing what we couldn’t say before—and we’re being asked to act on it.

✨ Journal Prompt: Where am I now ready to speak up and take bold, heartfelt action?

🔥 Mars Re-Enters Leo | Fri, April 18

Mars initially entered Leo in November 2024, but went retrograde on December 6, 2024 at 6° Leo, and retraced all the way back into Cancer, stationing direct on February 23, 2025 at 17° Cancer.

Now, Mars returns to Leo with the wisdom it gained from this deeply emotional review. Themes around creativity, identity, leadership, and passion are resurfacing—but with more clarity and confidence. You may feel the urge to rekindle something that once burned brightly, especially in matters connected to the inner child, joy, and self-expression.

✨ Journal Prompt: What desires or dreams are ready to be pursued with a fearless, open heart?

💎 Venus Stations Direct in Pisces | Sat, April 12 (1 hr after the Full Moon)

This is the true emotional climax of the week.

Venus—the ruler of the recent Full Moon in Libra—stations direct just one hour after the moon goes exact. In Pisces, Venus is exalted. She dissolves boundaries between us and the divine, but this time, her journey has been profound and karmic.

This retrograde chapter brought us:

• Venus conjunct Saturn — deep lessons around boundaries and commitment (Monday, Apr. 21st, Next exact conjunction for the second time this season)

• Venus conjunct Neptune — a dismantling of illusions and spiritual truths

• Venus conjunct North Node — alignment with higher values and soul contracts

• Venus conjunct Mercury — a re-writing of relationship stories and self-worth narratives

✨ Venus in Pisces has been in this sign twice in one year—making this the true closing of a karmic feminine chapter. This touches all beings, regardless of gender: The inner daughter, sister, mother, healer, muse. It touches on how we give, receive, love, and value ourselves. It touches money, beauty, body, sensuality, and soul.

✨ Journal Prompts:•

Saturn: Where have I had to mature or set boundaries in love, money, or self-worth?

Neptune: What illusions around love or value am I finally ready to release?

North Node: What lessons am I now integrating around my soul’s desire?

Mercury: What new truth do I need to communicate to myself or others?

🌙 Moon Conjunct Pluto in Aquarius | Sun, April 20 @ 20:18 PM HST

As the week closes, the Moon moves into Aquarius and meets Pluto at 3°—activating a deep inner reset. Pluto asks: what outdated power structures (within or around you) are ready to dissolve?
