A lot has been made of the grand earth trine that formed in the middle of March 2012. High in the sky you could see Jupiter and Venus in close conjunction and Mars moving retrograde was clearly visible in the night sky (and still is). The only planet not visible to the naked eye way little Pluto. That grand trine saw the world markets soar but also saw the horrors of the terrible bus crash which killed 28 children in Switzerland on their way back from a skiing trip. In the background however another formation has slowly been taking shape. This is a mutable grand cross based around the Nodal Axis. This formation is now in place and will stay in range into May. The effects of this cross have already been seen to dramatic effect and before it dissolves we may see yet more action from it.
