Astrological calendar

April 1940

Every New and Full Moon, every eclipse with its Saros family, every retrograde and every sign change — in Brasília time, computed with precision ephemerides validated against NASA’s catalogue.

  1. 1 Monday

    Mars enters Gemini

    03:41 PM · Brasília time

    A planet changes sign: the same function starts operating in another style. The theme does not change — the manner does.

  2. 4 Thursday

    Venus enters Gemini

    03:09 PM · Brasília time

    A planet changes sign: the same function starts operating in another style. The theme does not change — the manner does.

  3. 7 Sunday

    Eclipse Solar annular in Aries

    05:20 PM · Brasília time

    A New Moon with the nodal axis activated: the Moon covers the Sun. In the tradition, a restart of this size moves structure, not detail — and the effect is counted in months, not days.

    Saros 128 · previous in the series: March 1922

  4. 12 Friday

    Pluto stations direct in Leo

    11:54 PM · Brasília time

    The planet stations and returns to direct motion: what was under review starts moving again, now with what was learned along the way.

  5. 15 Monday

    First Quarter in Cancer

    10:46 AM · Brasília time

    A week after the seed, the first tension: what was planted meets the real world. It is a course correction, not a surrender.

  6. 17 Wednesday

    Mercury enters Aries

    01:55 AM · Brasília time

    A planet changes sign: the same function starts operating in another style. The theme does not change — the manner does.

  7. 20 Saturday

    Sun enters Taurus

    02:50 AM · Brasília time

    A planet changes sign: the same function starts operating in another style. The theme does not change — the manner does.

  8. 22 Monday

    Eclipse Lunar penumbral in Scorpio

    01:25 AM · Brasília time

    A Full Moon intensified by the Earth’s shadow: culmination and emotional turning point. What was ripe shows up all at once.

    Saros 140 · previous in the series: April 1922

  9. 29 Monday

    Last Quarter in Aquarius

    04:49 AM · Brasília time

    The light wanes: time to harvest what served and release what did not. A conscious closing before the next cycle.

What this means for your chart

The calendar is the same for everyone; the effect is not. Each event lands in a different house of your chart — and that is what changes what it asks of you.
