Upcoming grand cross eclipse

Let’s just say that I remember the grand fixed cross eclipse in 1999 very well (it was a huge turning point), and I’m hoping this one is nothing like it, but since it hits right on my ascendent, I doubt it. Keep calm and carry on, I say!

If you keep up with my update articles, you’ve probably caught more than one reference to extremely bumpy astrology headed our way in April. Guess what? That’s now only a month away.

This perfect-storm of contributing factors—namely, (1) a very-tightly-orbed cardinal grand cross between Mars, Jupiter, Uranus and Pluto, (2) while Mars is still retrograde in Libra, a sign of his detriment, (3) smack in between two eclipses—is just the sort of configuration that’s had us astrologers chatting and conjecturing well in advance. (For example, horoscope queen Susan Miller says: ‘April’s so scary that I’m giving classes on it.’)

But I’ve also been around this block enough times to recognize, sometimes the astro-happenings we beforehand herald with the most sensational hype, in the end, come and go with surprisingly little fanfare… though, to be clear, that’s not to say they proved insignificant. I try to keep a safe distance from the business of stirring fear responses by giving power to doomsdayish predictions, for I’m not sure what value it provides to warn that the sky is falling when we all still must live under that same sky each and every day until it really does fall.
