Monthly horoscopes
Taurus (April 20 –May 21st)
No – it hasn’t been your imagination – the astrological energies have been kinda tough on you ... even bringing matters of your career, home life, and heck, even your relationships to an "either this changes or I’m leaving!" showdown. Well, good news: Life will be calming down and easing up ...a little. Venus traveling through your sign will make you wonderfully magnetic, appealing and even savvier at negotiating matters to get your way through April 11th. Then she helps strengthen your favorite Taurus subjects of security and finances through the end of the month and even allures some valuable relationships into your court as well. All in all your social life will be perked up in April with some amazing dynamics with friends and generous folks who want to help you to reach your goals. Be cautious, however, during the wild energies of April 27th - April 29th, as someone might exit your life as quickly as they entered it. If they were that shaky, you didn’t want them anyway, sweet Taurus.Scorpio (Oct. 23rd – Nov. 22nd)
No doubt about it: The past few months have been intense and dramatic for you, Scorpio. Confrontations and crises might have been rampant: some involved you and affected you, others didn’t involve you, but still affected you anyway. The good news is that, although your changes are far from over, at least most of the shoes that were going to drop have done so, leaving you with a clearer picture of what you’re dealing with. Even better, the energies gathering now are working more for your benefit. So use your characteristic of being the “Phoenix” - one who rises from the ashes into something more glorious - and carry on. Even during the dates when surprises and unexpected shifts are erupting, matters can end up promoting you, supporting your goals, or bringing people into your life who love you and who are compassionate to your wants and needs, especially April 2nd-5th and 26th-30th. Use the innovative ideas on the 20th and 22nd to further your goals, possibly financially, and use the revelations on the 26th-28th to discover who’s in your court and who isn’t. And then do what you must.
Astrology Zone Scorpio:
I won't hold my breath there.
Your romantic life is about to perk up beautifully. It's time to go out and see what the world has to offer, dear Scorpio. Every member of your sign, of every possible marital status, will be included.
Do you have no one to love? Mars will enter your romance sector on April 6, to join Uranus and Mercury, already there, to stay until May 15. From the moment Mars enters, you will start to have romantic choices. With Mars in Pisces, the sign of two fishes, you may have two sweethearts in time to decide about.
Meh, I'm not a sports person. I'm gonna take Latin dance again instead.
I mentioned last month's eclipses, so let me say this: If you didn't get any news near March 3 or 18, the dates of the eclipses that fell in your friendship and true love sectors, respectively, then you might this month. The job of an eclipse is to shed brilliant light on a situation and help you evolve in maturity by what you hear.If you didn't see any developments in your love life in March, then watch to see if anything develops this month, one month to the day later this month. That would be April 3 and April18, plus or minus four days.
Also watch April 23 carefully too, for that is the date that Mars, your ruler, will oppose the exact mathematical degree of last month's lunar eclipse of March 3, at 13 degrees of Virgo. That day - April 23 - could prove to be significant and very revealing, one way or the other.
Last month's solar eclipse of March 18 will be highlighted by Mars on May 13 and you may want to mark it down on your calendar in case I forget to tell you in my next report. That's when Mars will move over the precise degree of that eclipse, 28 degrees Pisces. In all, your houses of friendship, love, romance, pregnancy, and children, as well as creativity, will strongly highlighted. Truly, your private life is certainly coming into focus and progressing.
Now let's turn to matters related to your health.
Are you feeling stressed and in need of more exercise? Look into your options just after the new moon, April 17. Diet and fitness regimens that are begun within a few days of the new moon, especially the friendly new moon, like the one we have, have an outstanding chance of success.
With Mars in your fifth house, rather than disciplined visits to the gym, doing fun sports that are new to you would work better. Chose one sport you'd like and then be quick to sign up for lessons. Make it a sport that will allow you to test your strength and test your skills as you go along - Aries, the sign of the new moon - will make you very competitive!
*shrug*
The month ends on a big surprise, and you guessed it - it will have something to do with your love life (or, your second love, a creative project).
On April 29, all matters in your fifth house will be glowing for love, romance, pregnancy, and care of children or, alternatively, a project that allows you to express your deepest creativity. It looks like this might be a terrific day, especially if your birthday falls near 17 degrees Scorpio: November 9.
However, because on March 29 Mars will be meeting with Uranus, the planet of all things unpredictable, I can't say for sure that developments will be upbeat. Uranus is the independent planet that operates by its own rules. This could be a hot aspect, one that tends to spark angry responses on one hand, and passion and love on the other. So be careful - it might not be a time to bring up news that would shock or upset your partner. To say the least, this is not a subtle aspect!If you are single, Mars in Pisces will be a blessing for it will take your love life from zero to 100 in a flash. Mars will enter April 6 and leave May 15, but in that time, you will have the power to start a new relationship that could stand the test of time.
Do you want an extra freelance or part time job? Take a look at the bulletin board notices and make your appointment with a potential employer for your money-magnet day, April 9. Ask for more money than you feel you can negotiate, because with your persuasive ways, you may just be able to get it.
Hm, I'll keep that in mind.
If you need a new position that offers more responsibility, then wait until mid-August to begin to interview. If you are not happy in your current job and don't mind making a lateral move, then look into job opportunities this month. If you are self-employed you will be pleased with the new clients you are able to pick up.
Taurus:
*sigh* I'd like to get a raise for that apartment, please. I'm not terribly thrilled at my rent going up.
Mars' entry into your people / places / events sector on April 6 to May 16 will ensure that you'll have more time to see friends and unwind, sure to feel luxurious after such a long hard-working phase. You may also make the acquaintance of a new friend too and when you do, this person will have a positive influence on your life, opening new doors and getting you excited about new interests and possibilities.With several important planets in your twelfth house, you'll feel a strong corresponding need for a little quality time for yourself this month. Having had a plethora of clients, coworkers, friends, and family leaning heavily on you for weeks, enjoying a stretch of unstructured time to spend as you please will seem like you just won the cosmic sweepstakes. Book a massage, visit a museum, browse for new spring clothes, or take in a movie or two. The quiet time you take for yourself now will pay dividends later when you emerge more rested and are able to set priorities more easily.
Venus will be in Taurus from April 1 - 11, a time when you'll be best at mesmerizing others to your charms. Buy new clothes and make changes to your appearance at this time, for you'll like the compliments you collect.
With swimsuit season approaching, you may now regret those late afternoon selections you made from cafeteria vending machines. Find a friend to exercise with and be consistent. Plan to start your new program at the new moon, April 17.
Making a substantial change to your lifestyle is often hard for a Taurus, but keep in mind that once you do, you'll likely stay the course. Your sign's proclivity for consistency is your forte and now will help you win the day. As new habits replace old ones you'll find progress accelerates. Stick with it - you'll see results sooner than you thought possible.
After the new moon April 17, your living situation could bring exciting news. Certain aspects suggest that within days of this date, you may discover that you're able to afford to lease a more spacious apartment, or to finally buy property you've had your eye on and feared someone else would snap up. If shopping for a mortgage, you may be pleasantly surprised by one with highly attractive terms. You've had this desire to increase your long-range security for some time, but now it seems within reach.
Keep in mind that Saturn's new orbit will not only improve your chances for travel but will also help you in the love department, particularly if you're single and hoping to find the right one for you. Saturn is currently touring your fifth house of new love, so that's why you have every reason to be optimistic. Saturn went retrograde in December 2006, so you've had to be patient. As they say, good things come to those who wait.
Romantically, last month probably brought a few intriguing romantic suitors to your path, but chance are, you were too busy to notice! This month, one shy person who has been smitten by you may take another small step forward. Have a cup of coffee together. With Venus in Taurus from April 1 - 11, you'll be the zodiac's darling. It's a grand month to be out and about, so be open to new people.
I'm kind of baffled why Saturn in a love house is going to do anything good for you.
