Mars aspects can be active for one-to-two days before and after the exact date listed. Three aspects that Mars will make this April include:
· April 12: Mars sextile Neptune, 8°–9° Taurus/Pisces
· April 17: Mars square Jupiter, 12°–13° Taurus/Leo
· April 21: Mars trine Pluto, 15°–16° Taurus/Capricorn
Creative projects or holiday plans might be highlighted when Mars aspects Neptune. This can be a day of low or reduced energy. It might bring the desire to escape, especially from any situation that causes stress or tension.
When Mars aspects Jupiter, a stretching energy, like that of a tightly pulled elastic band, is activated. This can encourage moving beyond familiar territory or getting out of your comfort zone. Of course, it also includes a caution against excess, since the elastic, if pulled too tightly, will snap back or break. Try to go a little further than normal, perhaps to a point where you feel a little uncomfortable, but not so far from what’s familiar that you feel unsafe.
Mars trine Pluto may be the most productive of all the Mars aspects this April. This might reveal a hidden obsession, but it also highlights the progress that’s possible when you focus exclusively on one goal or outcome at a time. Together Mars and Pluto represent pure force or directed will, and a narrow focus can help you move through a previous barrier.

Will any of these Mars aspects trigger your planets? If so, what have you got planned?
