Sun: 24'Gemini
Moon: 29'Leo
A burst of colorful flowers in the sky, fading away in smoke trails just before another illuminates the night. A campfire crackling merrily away, toasting your marshmallows, before it escapes the confines of its coals and transforms into a raging wildfire. A volcano spewing embers into the storm it generates to wreathe its own summit in rainless lightning a la Etna, or fountaining smooth streams of heavy basalt into the sea as Kilauea so iconically does A candle, steady or flickering in the wind. The scent of bread baking in the oven and meat roasting on the barbecue. The light by which you read these words. The fury of the nuclear fusion at the heart of the warm sunlight on your skin (and the painful red burn it may leave after)...
These are some of the physical manifestations of Fire.
Earth may give us form and Water life, Air is breath (or death). But no element has brought people together again and again the way that Fire does. It is as beautiful as it is dangerous, tough to contain but impossible to live without.

Astrology and the Oklahoma tornadoes
Sun: 3'Gemini
Moon: 23' Scorpio
Full Moon (within 1 day)
As a trained storm spotter, I understand something of the challenges faced by NOAA and the local Emergency Management departments in reacting to such a swift-paced and dangerous storm. As a trained civilian search-and-rescue assistant, I also understand exactly what the communities across Oklahoma are going through right now and I extend my fullest sympathies for the all the great losses they have suffered.
As an astrologer, I have not yet gotten around to drawing a chart for the tornado event at Moore, OK. However, I spotted this on Astro.com and found it to be a thoughtful piece on the effects of the outer planets on personal lives. Often, the outer planets (Uranus, Neptune and Pluto) are thought of as being only "generational" in effect due to their distance from Earth and the time it takes for each of them to make even a single revolution around the Sun.

April is the cruelest month
1605, 14APR2013
Sun: 25'Aries Moon 17'Gemini
April is the cruelest month, they say, and I know it. The Sun has entered Aries, bringing with it the hard-charging energies of the Ram and the gods of war (collectively called "Mars,") and in synchronicity the Northern Hemisphere's pursuit of new life and reproduction takes over in full force and flower, with all the beauty and mercy of a diamond.
Nothing is born, without something dying to make way for it.
