Which planet will be in retrograde in April 2022?
What ghosts are scurrying about in our closets? Where do we go when we’re “unconscious and unable to recognize our part in a crisis? Pluto’s instinct is to conceal because he rules the underworld in the cosmos. One of this planet’s favorite forms of defense is projection. Pluto is probably at work whenever and whenever you’re pointing the finger. Pluto spends around five months of every year in retrograde motion, just like the other outer planets. We frequently experience a sense of release from the planet’s ferocity during these periods. Introspection is encouraged during retrogrades, and deep-diving Pluto’s backspin can yield insightful revelations. We are resolving issues of financial inequality, creating new monetary systems, and debating how industry affects the environment while the Sun is in Capricorn from 2008 until 2024.

80 minutes before sunrise, at the beginning of April, mag. 4.2 Venus rises over the east-southeast horizon.
The brilliant planet is located close to Mars (+1.1) and Saturn (+0.9). This fainter pair can be seen in the dawn twilight southwest (right, as seen from the UK) of Venus.
On April 3, a waxing crescent Moon with a 6 percent illumination sits close to Uranus, which is always visible to the unaided eye from a dark sky position.
Mars and Saturn are only 19 arcseconds apart on the morning of April 5 with Venus 7.3 to the northeast (where 5 is roughly the breadth of your three middle fingers held out at arm’s length).
Jupiter arrives in the middle of the month. Mag. 1.9 Jupiter rises 30 minutes after Venus on April 14th, 70 minutes before sunrise.

What zodiac signs will be impacted by the 2022 Mercury retrograde?
When you believe you have everything under control and your troubles solved, Mercury retrograde seems to mix things up. There’s always a problem lurking around the corner when it comes to astrology, and nothing illustrates this more than when Mercury, the planet of thought and communication, starts to move backward through the zodiac rather than ahead. Taurus, Gemini, Scorpio, and Sagittarius are the zodiac signs that will be most impacted by Mercury retrograde in spring 2022, so you *might* want to get ready for some technical issues soon.
Mercury usually stirs up temporary turbulence and commotion when it stations retrograde. This retrograde, which occurs three to four times a year, is nothing new to you because you’ve already encountered it numerous times. In other words, there is no need to be concerned; the world will not end, and you will survive it unharmed. Although miscommunications and misunderstandings frequently occur when Mercury is retrograde, it is also a lovely time to reflect on your life, look back on previous endeavors, and take care of any unfinished business.
Mercury retrograde this spring starts on May 10 at 4 degrees Gemini, going backwards. Mercury rules this mutable air sign, so this will be a typical retrograde experience marked by confusion and diversion. Think carefully before you speak, especially if you’re twisting the truth. On May 22, Mercury will reenter Taurus, slowing down the intensity of this retrograde and making it more frustrating for Mercury, who already finds it difficult to move through this rigid fixed earth sign. Fortunately, everything will finish on June 3 just as swiftly as it began.
What the astrological signs listed below should be aware of is:
Is Venus currently in retrograde in 2022?

What effects will Mercury’s retrograde have on 2022?
Right, Sagittarius? You have never, ever, never in a million years left a relationship before. Ha! You’re the first to do it, so leave right away without turning around! It will be extremely important to consider how you collaborate with others and whether you are on the same page during this Mercury retrograde phase. Exes can even be waiting around right now, or you might discover that you keep thinking about someone from your past. You are advised to do so if you’d like to try to get back in touchor, at the absolute least, bury the grievance, forgive, and go on. Later on in the trip, either your career and occupation or your physical routine and health will be confused. Avoid making snap judgments.
