Grand Cross Cardinal Signs image: www.elsaelsa.com
Remember that constant, ongoing Uranus/Pluto square between 2012-2015? Well I, and other astrologers, are right now all focused on this April, Shakespeare’s “cruelest month,” as that which will mostly likely figure in his-story books as the apex of this ongoing r/evolutionary journey, the month when all hell broke loose. Or maybe it’s when all heaven breaks loose? Or both? I think both. And due to all the retrograde planets, including Mars, the rollout is likely to be paradoxically instantaneous, slow-moving, and thorough. Note: please do check out Carl Boudreau for this month; he notes that the grand cross is situated within a stabilizing near-kite formation.
As usual, whatever meaning one finds in any configuration depends on the context within which it is placed. What kind of frame? Whose frame? Why not a larger frame? Or a smaller? There is no “absolute truth,” (astrological or otherwise); there is only a relativity of frames, each of which serves to “fix” (apparent) meaning in place, however briefly.
So. Though David Wilcock, and others, focus on April 10th and 11th,
“Wednesday 3/26: PLEASE NOTE: The mostly-secret geopolitical war between BRICS and the Cabal is reaching critical mass in the next two weeks, specifically by April 10th and 11th. . .”
and though Ben Fulford and, apparently, Cobra, focus on on April 14th through the 17th, I personally tend to view April 20-27 as the more likely time for which to be prepared (whatever that means). Though no doubt the entire month will feel overcharged, superheated, even volcanic.
I say this because April 20-27 is the week that includes the powerful, and rare, grand cross in cardinal signs that is triggered by Mars as it clicks into the missing point in the long, slow Jupiter/Uranus/Pluto T-cross that we’ve been enduring since August 2013. This grand cross will be exact: all four of these planets will be at the 13th degree of their respective signs on April 22-23.
You might check out these two articles on this rare, and extremely powerful grand cross. Both analyses are good and involve history. The second one also shows which fixed stars are aligned with the planets in the Grand Cross (thus presenting a bigger frame).

Here’s one numerological rendering of the number “13.”
“13 is the number that blends multiplicity (the 12) into oneness.”
Here’s another:
From a numerological perspective, we first recognize the presence of the three. Symbolic meaning of number three is vast and powerful. At its simples, the symbolic meaning of the number three deals with:
Creation
Completion
Order
Advancement
Mystery
We then recognize the presence of the number one, which precedes the number three. This amplifies the preexisting symbolic meaning of the number one, which deals with:
Beginnings
Initiation
Solidarity
Unity
Birth
Singly, these individual number meanings put together tell a story of a path that is just beginning (number one), and will lead to greatness in the expression of the union of opposites (number three).
Adding and reducing the single numbers, is a common practice in numerology. Do this, we receive another symbolic meaning of the number thirteen. To wit: 1+3=4. Fours lend a grounding effect to the high-pitch energy of 13. The energy of number four brings the thirteen down to a level where we can begin to rationalize its meaning more clearly. The reduction to four is a message that at its core, the thirteen is a means to an end and this numeric energy will always return us to the calm root or source which is ultimately our cosmic home. (A.K.: my emphasis.)
In a deeper numerological perspective, thirteen can be considered the fulfillment or manifestation of the number three.
It is also important to note the number thirteen is a prime number and is only divisibly by itself. This is symbolic of:
Incorruptible nature
Purity
Integrity
In the language of the Tarot, the number thirteen is represented in the Death card, which is symbolic of:
Transition
Change
Inevitability

Get ready. Get set. Here we go.
