Overview: The last two weeks of April bring a window of opportunity to spring forward. Push on through the top soil to reach towards the sun. You’ll be glad you did with Mercury retrograde for most of May (8-30th). That said, if things aren’t signed, sealed, delivered by the end of the month, don’t stress, as you probably need some more time to test, review, and research before you roll it out in June. 4/21 is a great day to celebrate love, in all of its wonderful mystery.
4/16-4/17…Time to slow down and take a breath. Where could you be more tender and forgiving in your approach? With Venus stationary direct in Pisces after a long haul in Aries (since Feb 3), it’s time to enjoy the nourishing waters of gentleness and compassion.
Practical pleasure…4/18-4/19…The sun goes into Taurus on 4/19, reminding us that underneath it all, we are all animals, and more alike than different. Enjoy some stabilization after the initial rush of the first month of spring and see where you can take more pleasure and enjoy more simplicity in your life.
The Final Frontier of Love…4/20-4/21…Venus conjuncts Mars at 29 degrees of Pisces on 4/21, reminding us of the universal nature of our desires. Connection and love are common needs we all share. Let your feelings run freely to the sea of consciousness we all swim in. Great days for romance, creativity, music and spirituality.
4/22-4/23…After a mellow week, it’s time to execute. Opportunities are coming our way to implement long term projects.
Bull in a China Shop…4/24…New Moon in Taurus
This new moon brings an opportunity for us to choose differently when strong desires and passion are flowing through our veins. A rock of Gibraltar may look pretty tempting in the midst of the chaos, but be careful of putting too much emphasis on appearances. In order to access current opportunities amidst the fast pace, we must simplify and look to nature for answers.
4/25…. Open to inspiration; blur and soften the edges of current conversations. It’s a good time to explore and entertain possibilities, but be careful of nailing things down as our judgment may be a bit off, leaving us vulnerable to disappointment.
Don’t be messing with me…4/26…Turning point in our ability to set good boundaries. Strengthen your resolve to push through to the other side of a clash of wills. Draw the line and assert yourself; summon your courage to say it like you mean it.
4/27-4/30…Time to regroup after what was probably a colorful week. Hold conversations and negotiations lightly; use this final window before Mercury goes retrograde to close the deal. If resolution isn’t coming easily, hold off key strategic decisions until June.
