April 2017 Horoscopes – Astrological Forecasts

‘Action is creation, and creation is Love, and Love is the way of the Universe.’

The April 2017 horoscope shows that this month is the perfect time to “seed” our intention for adding more beauty, love and prosperity into our lives.

This month we have a New Moon in Taurus on April 26th at 15:16 GMT. The moon’s influence this month governs our relationships, our appreciation of beauty and our sensuality, as well as our connection to Mother Earth and her abundant gifts. This month is a good time to nourish and take care of our physical bodies, our security and material values, and our financial needs, plus look after our personal environment and our community spaces.

The April horoscope shows that this month asks us to take a look at how we can create more abundance, more beauty, more grace in our lives by going beyond the basic “fear and survival” mode…… how can we better sustain ourselves and our planet in the face of the constant fear of financial losses and material lack? If we are stubbornly holding onto to old bad habits, this New Moon enables us to see where we have been “stuck” and to move forward.

Beauty inspires and heals us; music, art, and dance all nourish our souls. Tuning our frequency to higher vibrations through color, sound, and smell is a very effective way to “feed” our consciousness and move us out of any “fear” we may be holding on to. So, get in touch with your physical senses and your needs. Are you paying attention to the nutrients you place in your bodies? Are you honoring all your “relations”?

April is a good month to being concerned with the quality of our daily lives, and putting more heart into our relationships? Are you willing to love yourself as well as your significant other…and vice versa. Are you willing to be more compassionate and tolerant in your dealings with others? Are you ready to take on the “mission” of creating a new way?

Now is the time to do so…

CANCER

Recognition, rewards, greater power and prestige, even your assets, property, belongings are enhanced greatly. The time is being truly generous, and you deserve it. Your vision is practical right now, and you want to see tangible results for your efforts. More contact with authority figures is likely during this period. Recognition is likely to come your way whether you ask for it or not, and the responsibility that comes right along with it! Do what you feel is right, keeping in mind that you are at your most visible during this month in the year.

If a romance were to begin now, it is more possible to be with someone from a different background or educational level, or someone you meet through travel. A love interest who attracts you this month may be somebody who you previously wouldn’t consider striking, or someone whose cultural background is very different than yours. You have a taste for the unusual and the spirit to match. There could be especial understanding with foreigners and with women if you are traveling this month. You are all the more attractive and charismatic with this position, which increases your popularity.

Group activities and joint efforts are the best way to accomplish your goals right now. In fact, you have all sorts of ideas about what you want to do. You would want to organize projects and put things in shape. Your humanitarian inclination may be stirred.

The part you play for other people in your life comes to the forefront now. You may experience that your tasks list gets swarming with things to do (usually for others). You may take actions to achieve your more personal long-term goals as well.

You are sensual and earthy in your sexual desires. The libido is strong, but controlled. Things are about to take off for you. You feel a positive vibe in relationships and other aspects of your life. You have truly worked hard for these rewards so sit back and enjoy them, you deserve it all.

Stay in contact with higher ups and authority figures and this will help in reaching your goals. Whether you expect recognition or not, it will be there, staring you in the face and along with it will be more responsibility to take on. Tensions are building involving your own ability to take the lead and to manage others. Do what you feel is true and right in your heart. You are very noticeable to everyone around you in evaluation and/or in inspiration so your decisions will not go unrecognized.

Committed relationships offer you more stability, and if you’re not in one, you might be feeling a tad insecure. One-on-one relationships are becoming increasingly important to you now. Some of you will be taking on business partners, and some will be bringing more work to a romantic partnership in some way. While career matters are especially pressing this month, it will be helpful to keep that stress at the office so that you can better enjoy your love life.

AQUARIUS

You still need to learn to relate better with others, but now it’s more on the intimate and personal level – the exchange of ideas, innermost thoughts, personal beliefs rather than the emotions. Family ties, linkages of loving and caring now become sharing.

Vital correspondence and contacts must not be neglected, or the necessary inputs, data and information for work-related projects, plans or activities. No carelessness of any kind to be made if you want to achieve your goals. You are more curious and alert than usual, and you could be quite busy with errands, paperwork, phone calls, and light socializing. Much energy is expended in understanding and adapting to your immediate environment. Siblings, neighbors, close relatives, friends, and co-workers may play a more important role than usual in your life.

Matters concerning the media, computers, and metaphysical subjects come to the forefront (if you’re in that profession). It has something to do with ‘unusual happenings’ in these fields. Impatience and a need for change is indicated. Rapid, unforeseen events can happen out of the blue. Some of you might find themselves propelled into new, perhaps exhilarating experiences.

There is anxiety about health – your own or that of a loved one, and equal anxiety about money. This is different from self-confidence – it’s about self-awareness this month. It hopefully leads to greater care in handling money matters like taxes, funds and also in handling the people around you. You may find yourself in a position in which there is a blending of financial matters with social or public affairs. You are now enthusiastic for household projects or activities. Because your actions are governed by your gut feeling, you may be particularly defensive and protective. You may have a greater than before wish to rule the roost. Family-related conflicts and disputes may arise; you may have arguments with them, about them, or on their behalf. You may also run into disagreements with career-related matters or people. You may have to get even with disturbing issues from the past that are resurfacing now

Your life will be full of busy work such as errands, keeping in contact with others, paperwork and perhaps a bit of much needed socializing. Your energy is high so you’ll have no trouble keeping up with it all. Look to others and listen to what they have to say with open ears and an open mind. They just may be of vital importance to you and your happiness.

Your intimate moments and personal encounters are not coming to you so easily right now. You seem to have a problem in letting things run smoothly. Stop and refocus your attention and your thoughts as to what is important to you and how to better attain what your goals are. The love you lose may be the love you could have had forever.

Share your inner thoughts and personal endeavors rather than relying on emotions to attain what you desire. So if an idea pops, act on it – for it plays a role in your continued development. If you’re hooked up, you’re ready for a new level of commitment. On your next date get personal with your lover on a more intellectual level. You may be surprised at how close you both can become. Do not ignore the ones trying to get your attention. Stay focused on sharing your ideals, personal aspects and deeper morals if you desire that deeper level of bonding. Regardless of your relationship status, you need someone who can engage your curious mind.

Improving your interpersonal relations requires you to invest quite some amount of time and effort. Right now, exchanging your ideas or other, deep thoughts should take precedence over emotional exchanges. Your family and the other people you love now become most important in your life.

Your neighbors, siblings and other close friends or relatives are about to become major players on the stage of your life. Keep yourself open to spontaneous meetings or other gatherings and keep a hold on your tongue if you feel tempted to spew something vicious.

ARIES

April might be a good time to make a thorough scrutiny of the real you, an honest assessment of your face, figure, health and assets and seek to implement a make-over where necessary. The truly intimate and personal you, needs to be examined minutely and where there is room for improvement, positive action should be taken. You’ll need to establish and maintain good working relationships with colleagues, subordinates and bosses as well. It’s NOT a time to challenge the system! Stress and neglect both need to be guarded against too. A time for introspective self-assessment with a degree of honesty and objectivity. That way lies contentment, success, happiness – any or all of these outcomes are possible once it comes from this change in your attitude

Personal and social contacts may be mysterious, and there can be secret love affairs, or at least very private love feelings and longings. Shyness can lead to some seclusion or romantic frustration. Attention to subconscious romantic and sexual dreams and desires comes to the forefront. Perhaps it allows you to play out certain fantasies that you are unable to play out consciously; when your whole being is completely aware of the consequences. Try to sustain a balance between inner and outer world. Energy levels are high. Therefore, you have the time and some strong inclination to think of projects for future gain. In addition, there is a stroke of luck, success in ventures, and joy in both marital and domestic life. The other reason for all this is your own co-operative, caring approach.

So you have the inclination to be good to others even as the good times roll. Financial conditions and related areas may see advances, with a boost in both resources and possessions. You have more oomph at your disposal to make money, but also to support your ideals. This can be a very creative time, when you make the most of what you have. You might embark upon new projects, or renew existing ones. The work you do may not be as profitable as it was earlier, or there may be unexpected expenses to manage, but you seem to succeed in overcoming any of these temporary setbacks and some routine expense may come to an end at this time; however, actions are required by you to make this happen, especially if these expenses are related to debt.

A perfect moment in time to step out and share yourself with everyone around you. You’re attracting admirers, some of whom may take a romantic interest in you and in fact, you are most visible during this period of the year. Strengthen the weak spots and mend the cracks, perhaps even change a few variables to make the overall ‘you’ a better and stronger one. Don’t just live your life, do whatever that makes it genuine and whole. Get more personal with a lover, show a close friend or relative just what you can accomplish for them, or for yourself. Get closer and strengthen bonds that are necessary within your profession as well. Your best bet would be to go with the flow of things while doing this.

A challenge or a confrontation is definitely not in your best interest right now. It will only add to unnecessary stress and neglect toward more important matters. Be honest, be objective but be adamant about reassessing your life. It will prove to be very positive for you in near future.

CAPRICORN

House or office may require renovation, refurbishing or expansion. Perhaps even a shift for either the office home factory/workplace. You want working conditions that satisfy you in every way, physically, technically and in the prevailing atmosphere and will take pains to achieve just that. You may also decide to invest in labor-saving devices/ gadgets to streamline your efficiency both at home and in the office. At the same time, there is a desire to retrace your roots and origins, to go back in time. This is a time to do what you can to build trust in your family life and a strong foundation within yourself, so that regardless of what you meet in the outside world over the next months, you have a secure place to return to.

Your personal equations with people are directly relevant, where your sense of duty, obligation, and responsibility are concerned and you maintain a sense of proportion and stability right now. Consistency and hard work are the keywords and shall help you in accomplishing your goals. You are willing to look reality in the eye and to take accountability for your life. Your admiration for authority is natural and helps superiors to look upon you sympathetically.

You realize that what matters is the closeness of bonds and ties with those you love. Friends are always important to you, and more so now. You are, therefore, not just willing but eager to maintain friendships and acquaintances. Essentially, you are quite companionable now. You enjoy talking about what interests you, and you find great value in the exchange of ideas. Sometimes this phase brings benefits/pleasure through siblings, communications, or short trips.

People may appear cool with their affections and emotionally far-away. Avoid new financial undertakings, as they may prove to be “money pits” as time passes. You tend to lack social confidence at this time and adopt a shy, formal, or reserved social manner. Try not to read too much into situations, particularly social and romantic circumstances. Disappointments, separations, and broken engagements are some other possibilities.

This is a very expansive time when you have lots of liveliness, but not necessarily self-discipline to match. Now such a careless attitude may lead to undesired troubles. You take much more interest in play and pleasure! Your love life may step up a notch, and you could be excited and passionate, more than ever. Try being patient in delicate moments, as impulsiveness can ruin yours and someone else’s life. Also, watch out for an inclination towards gambling, stock markets and betting. Be careful not to burn the candle at both ends.

Your home life is a bit chaotic at the moment. You now tend to make much more changes in your personal life in order to feel happier and contented in your life. This will be no easy task given the state your life is currently in, but if you work hard enough at something, anything is possible.

Investment in the way you spend your time with loved ones is not a bad idea either. Effectiveness and priority is always a good thing in reaching your goals and desires. These days, security and maturity are especially appealing to you in a partner, and this is a trend that is likely to last for some time. While romantic overtures remain intriguing to you, you are more interested in proof than talk.

On a romantic level, there are likely to be some challenges, intimacy problems, and certainly a more serious tone. Lack of intimacy or other flaws in casual relationships may seem glaring right now. Use this time wisely to get close to family and strengthen ties among them. Build your emotional foundation of who you really are so that as you venture out into the world, you will always have a wonderful place to fall back on if need be.

This is a time to do whatever you’re able to do in order to feel closer to your family and friends and build or maintain your own, strong foundation. Regardless of who you meet out in the world over the next few months, you will have a secure base of operations at your home if you can keep the people you live with happy.

GEMINI

Widening the vistas of your very existence is what this month makes you do. You still extend warmth and friendship, as well as cooperation at work. All the trends – which started last month will now gain momentum, focus and direction. You reach out to people in a rare show of warmth, connubial bliss and friendship. This is a rather happy, goal-oriented month. A lively agenda is promised, you’re attracting quite a bit of interest, and your energy for making contact with others is high. This is a time to follow your dreams and ideals, and to plant a seed in the form of a wish for the future.

You have a tendency to act and reflect automatically, and you could come across as an “open book” now. It’s a favorable time for solving problems and to work on improving your skills. Circumstances are such that you need to become accustomed to communication or travel. You tend to say what you believe now. Keep in mind that what you say or write now has impact, for better or for worse!

The month brings social opportunities to your occupation. Satisfaction comes through your career, your vocation and your business. It follows that now, it will be your profession and work, the recognition of your worth, skills and abilities that is the first yardstick of success, but more vital, relevant a measure will be how you feel about it – and that’s what is truly important this whole month. You are coming across well at work now, and romantic opportunities, or simply more chances to mingle and network, are likely.

This is the time to research and reflect upon your objectives. It could also be a time when much of your efforts are channeled into private/secret matters. Unconscious behavior patterns could manipulate the way you assert yourself. Some may experience sleeplessness, especially if they are not allowing themselves the chance to recover and if they are not letting their instinct serve them. Others may enjoy a more dynamic dreaming life (this includes day-dreaming), and, if permitted to run free, the imagination can serve them very well, particularly with regards to new concepts.

Now is the time to re-evaluate what makes you — YOU. How can you create a happy aura that will fulfill your desires for what you crave in life? Keep that warm and friendly quality about you and keep that teamwork ability you possess in your professional lifestyle. Your magnetism revolves around an element of mystery and fascination rather than outgoing charm.

There is positive momentum that you carry forward from last month. These aspects will only grow stronger for you now, stimulating your own creativity and pursuits. Your warm qualities are intensified as you feel the need to stir up your chemistry with your lover. You feel closeness with friends that mean so much to you and you have a wonderful sense of belonging and caring. You are looking for excitement, adventure, and immediate feedback from partners and lovers.

Your goals seem to be easily attainable with the encouraging support from friends and family. Attitude is positive, energy is high and the overall quality of life is at its best. The interest from others is intense and you are noticed in almost everything you do. Follow those dreams and make a wish. You will be happy that you did.

LEO

Long-distance and foreign connections, exchange and trade will be favored. You’ll travel a fair amount and may strike up a chance acquaintance who shares your views, ideals and ideas. Also, you deal with a kind of weariness, even disillusionment, that sets in.

A month of exaltation, true spirituality, intellectual and moral growth – a truly cosmic gift comes to you. The preceding month had lots of highs and lows for you to reckon with. This month reorients you to your lasting values, and greater idealism is the result, in conjunction with heightened consciousness and conscience, that come hand in hand with true and sincere spirituality and faith.

A full of meaning and warm relationship made now could be stimulating and even healing. You draw closer to a loved one/partner/spouse even as circumstances pull you apart. You will also concern yourself with future finances. This will be a good time for money matters pertaining to fund-raising, capital-formation and long-range investments. Debts may happen, if you don’t do your homework in financial matters. There is tendency to be carefree (or careless). You may be distressed with matters related to death/separation – either of a loved one or a relationship.

Your ambition and/or your desire to be acknowledged for your achievement comes to the forefront. Whether it’s professional or personal, you are likely to have an increased desire for others to notice you. This can be a good time to become self-employed or start a business if other factors are favorable. Events taking place now will have a great bearing on your future and will be long reaching in their effects. It is a time when great progress can be made and personal recognition achieved.

Do not put your travels on hold any longer. Now is the time to utilize any long distance connections you may have. It will prove positive in creating an acquaintance who will share in your ideals and views and you have an enthusiastic and exuberant appeal.

Exchange of heart and thoughts is stored for you this month. Sexual exploration and freedom are important, as well as a need for sexual honesty.

If you are feeling wary and disheartened these days, do not waste time brooding about past. Redirect what you have left of your energies and focus on the unique experiences of your life and things that make you special. You’ll feel a sense of rapture, an intellectual and moral growth take over. Let it absorb into you and you will feel a renewed sense of desire for life again.

Your immediate past has had a lot of highs and lows that you have had to deal with. It is no wonder that you tend to feel the way you do. Hold tight though. Your immediate future holds a brighter light for you. As you redirect your attitudes, you will feel your values becoming stronger and your ideals more inspired. Your eyes will open wider and brighter as the bad passes by you and extinguishes itself and your new sense of attitude comes to light.

LIBRA

Now the focus shifts on people and relationships, ranging from personal to platonic to just professional. You will realize that to help you achieve success your people skills need to be honed. You will need to be sharp-witted and alert in order to identify potential (or even actual) threats to your welfare/progress. It may not happen but it is good to be prepared. In spite of all this, this month brings you caring and sharing, that is, fine companionship, close ties with loved ones and an overall feeling of both togetherness and contentment. The emphasis is on “us” rather than “me”. This may be an especially busy time for people who consult or work with clients one-on-one.

It is your work that you’ll focus on in this month, but more in terms of what you gain from it. You will be looking at both employment benefits as well as job-satisfaction and of course, striving towards both, and achieving them for the most past. Romantic and social activities may revolve around your working environment. You are generally well liked and respected socially on the job right now. Some laziness is possible now, as you tend to associate pleasure with work! Perhaps you are socializing more than usual on the job. You will also be looking at working for the community and for society at large.

Sexuality and intimacy are stimulated. You are likely to be more planned in your actions, as you become aware of the subtleties of human relations. This is a time when your best course of action is to recognize that you need, or rely on, others for support.

Cooperative efforts revolve around making the most of all the resources belonging to two or more people. Arguments with partners over values or belongings are possible. Try to be patient and adjusting in critical times, as this will help you reach new heights in coming months.

Love is in the air and you will want to make most of now. There is a basic drive to appreciate and taste life. You’re in a loving, passionate mood, and if you have no lover at the moment, make/wear something beautiful, luscious, and attractive in whatever arena you most enjoy. All creative acts are favored now. Dancing or some other vital and sensual self-expression would be especially fulfilling.

Your attention will be more on your romance, your friendships and perhaps even professional relationships this month. Now is the time to be social. Check in with contacts, make those necessary phone calls and get a hold of those you’ve been putting off. If you want to see success in your personal life, this is what must be done now. You now enjoy the social “game” surrounding making connections with lovers, and they can be quite seductive.

Polish up on your people skills and work on redefining them. There may be potential hiccups and sharpening your people skills helps you realizing where these threats lie and in extinguishing them before they reach you and affect your life. Even if there are no dangers that concern you, you will be better to be prepared for such antics just in case. You will now seem to ignore your own sexual needs as you are focusing on those of your partner.

It will be good for you to look forward to your lover for a permanent/stable relationship. There is plenty of compassion and sharing waiting for you this month. Close ties with family, friends and even romantic relationships are all prospering. It would be wise to think of situations in your life in terms of “us” instead of “me”.

PISCES

A time when you will truly need to “walk the talk”, stand by your beliefs and convictions. You will have a lot on your plate and most of it will pertain to money – both for immediate needs and future gains. Financial matters become important or at least the main focus, but good moves have to be thought out. Property and possessions, rentals, funds, investments, and even cash transactions. There may be profits or income from property, land and real estate. Don’t try for fast cash or the quick buck. That doesn’t last and can give you a sense of false security. In fact, you might just be barking up the wrong tree in terms of career or personal gains through sheer pride or ego. Back your own judgment, but do so with caution and restraint. You know instinctively what works best for you. Just go ahead sensibly, keeping your own counsel as far as possible.

Some of you are likely to fall in love with yourself. This is not a weird thing, in fact, it will help in boosting your own self esteem. This is a time when you naturally let loose your softer, receptive side. Romantic matters, as well as pleasure-seeking activities, come to the fore now. You are more likely to pay closer attention to your physical appearance and mannerisms, aiming to improve and enhance your attractiveness. You’ll learn that it actually pays off to trust yourself, forgive yourself and be truthful to yourself. Lessons learned now will help you project yourself confidently to the world.

You are likely to have countless ideas/thoughts and plans going and you might scatter your focus as a result. If channeled well, this is an excellent time to showcase your ideas and do presentations. Avoid rash driving or impatience while performing manual odd jobs, generally with the hands that may lead to accidents. It is advised to be alert on the road or while operating machinery. This is a fine phase to work on intellectual tasks with more vigor and passion.

Now is the time to stand up tall, hold your head up high and really believe in what you have and what you want. With so much going on in your life right now it is the least you can do for yourself. If you’re with someone, your partner might very well accuse you of subscribing to the what’s mine is mine and what’s ours is mine philosophy.

Your monetary needs are coming up and the burden of what to do is close at hand. If anyone can spot a manipulative tactic, it’s you. And yet, people at home or work likely suspect that it’s you who’s making the power-play. Take your time and strategize. Hasty decisions will only result in bad outcomes. Evaluate all of your assets before coming up with a plan, including your property, rentals, investments and even cash transactions. These are all important aspects that you should look over.

Do not back down, back your own judgments but go ahead with caution. You already know what works best so now is the time to put your knowledge into action. Go forward sensibly and keep your counsel as far as possible.

SAGITTARIUS

This is a very playful period of the year, when you are inspired creatively and emotionally. After a period of self-protectiveness, you are now more spontaneous and more willing to take risks. A rich, fruitful and happy phase comes to you and you’re enjoying it. The spice of life is there for you in the variety of interests, activities, and feelings that you are bound to experience this month. Don’t fly too high or too far — risky moves, rashness, over-confidence that nothing can go wrong or just foolhardy behavior. Some danger or possible mishap may be lurking. Risk-taking, speculation must be avoided. Also rashness in an affair of the heart which might leave you hurt and scattered, if not shattered.

Watch that you don’t overrate your caliber/capabilities now. The yearning to experience something new, liberty to walk around new possibilities, can lead to restlessness if you don’t know what it is you want. Over-optimism can lead to losses or waste. Larger than life attitude could take hold now, but ‘right and optimum’ should be considered first. There can be a tendency to go overboard and to indulge in extravagances.

At home, you are mentally very active, making interesting changes and turning the daily friend of domesticity into fun and pleasure. A second home/retreat/vacation is also possible. But avoid over-spending on holidays and extravagance in general. That’s not the way, even if you’re spending on adding beauty, comfort and luxury to your home and family. Over-extending yourself will actually detract from the ambience, not add to it. You may particularly value the aesthetics in and around your home during this month. If things are out of whack on the home front, you will do whatever you can to create a peaceful and stable atmosphere.

You tend to work hard and your day-to-day responsibilities will demand more attention. Perhaps you have a larger workload than usual. You become aggressive on your job or in regard to your service responsibilities. It might be hard for you to work with others in a pleasant manner, and disputes with co-workers are possible. If you are feeling particularly annoyed, irritated or impatient, it would be wise to find little projects and things to do so that you can guide excess vigor gainfully.

The desire for “play time” is certainly with you this month, and, for the most part, your powers of attraction are running high. Your creativity pours out and creates an inspiration for you that exceeds your normal abilities. Your emotions show this and everyone will see. Have fun with it and its playful attitude it gives you.

You’ve been protecting yourself long enough. Now is the time to take charge and try new things. Use your inspiration and get spontaneous. Take a chance on something you would normally pass up. Feel the desire and go with it instead of holding back. Your efforts will not go unnoticed and will prove positive and prolific for you. It is what is called the spice of life. It is there for you to enjoy to the fullest extent physically, mentally and more so, emotionally.

Do, however, be careful in overindulging. There are limits to everything you do. Enjoy the fruits of life, but do not get overly confident or feel that nothing can go wrong. Go over these limits and you’ll see just how badly something wonderful can go awry.

Take a chance on love but don’t take a ‘risk’. You’ll know the difference.

SCORPIO

You may be making changes in your job/profession, in your relationships with colleagues and co-workers, health and diet. There may be some mental strain, or perhaps financial difficulties, particularly relating to held-up payments that are still pending, salaries, servants, health and employee benefits or perhaps a bad debt and/or a check. Willingness to help and serve will pay dividends, both materially and in terms of a “feel-good” factor. Don’t expect gratitude and appreciation – just go ahead and do whatever needs to be done. This phase presents an opportunity to get rid of what doesn’t work in your life, while also discovering what does. You could seek distinction and strive towards perfection in your work. Efficiency should be your goal now.

Someone might try taking control of you through some form of manipulation. Remember that ‘you can’ doesn’t always means ‘you should’. Be patient and avoid being impulsive. Some of you could be facing obstacles (read rules and regulations) in your path and can force you into using all of your abilities to fight back, and in the process, you could discover resources (or system’s loopholes) you never knew about.

This is an animated period to love and be loved! You are especially fascinated to visual forms of amusement and activities. Creative self-expression of any kind is favored at this time. You feel a little more playful now, and love matters tend to be exaggerated with a shade of excitement. That shouldn’t be a problem, as you kind of like it that way for the time being. Yet, you are not aggressive in your approach to love. Instead, you attract more if you allow yourself to be pursued this month.

Relationships are bubbly and vibrant. Partnerships may go through ego conflicts, or adversaries may be demanding. Try to work cooperatively on relationship problems, as that’s the need of the hour. When a difference arises, you are quick to resolve it, and have little tolerance for minor issues. You may become very critical of your partners/relationships, enough to stir antagonism rather than the forming of a harmonious association and the two of you could become immediate enemies. Try to accept the differences that you see between your ideal and the reality.

At this time you will set high goals and try to achieve something of significance in your career. You are no longer content to maintain the status quo because your sense of ambition is more powerful than usual and you have the self-confidence to take on a larger task. In fact, you face the danger of an inflated ego. Major, long-term changes can be successfully begun now – a lifestyle change or a regimen of self-improvement.

Love might be complicated this month, although invigorating and certainly never boring! Now is the time to keep alert to vulnerable areas in your close interactions. Changes are on the horizon for you professionally and personally in dealing with health and diet issues. The demands of your larger goals in life may have been eclipsing your pleasure-seeking activities, and this becomes glaringly apparent now. Also possible, your children may be going through their own changes and “stages”, and need more attention now.

Volunteer your time in helping your near and dear ones and it offers a unique experience which is worth exploring. Others are bound to find you especially attractive, personable, and approachable on the job. Pressures are easing, your confidence is building, and the important people in your life are supportive. Less focus on the flaws of your relationships and more focus on the “big picture” keeps romance lively and stimulating.

Take these trying times and use them to change the bad in your life with a more desired approach to things. Seek out what makes you happy and what could create a more positive effect in your life and in reaching your goals. Be efficient and it will show through a more organized lifestyle.

TAURUS

You will have a sense of awareness of your own limitations this month, leading up to your birthday phase, be they physical, emotional or even financial, as well as a sense of being confined and restricted. There could be some rivalry, hard feelings generated that could trigger off either of these reactions. NOT a time to go overboard, in terms of self-pity, to see troubles where none exist, or attempt to solve the world’s problems. It might be a good idea to maintain a low profile and be less vocal. A time to make special efforts to get along with others – both professionally and personally. Changes initiated now may prove beneficial in the long run, both materially and otherwise.

You will be more friendly, more magnanimous but also more extravagant. In fact, you will join a club, action group or gathering of like-minded people even at work. Those who please you in terms of your ideas as well as ideals will be the ones you interact with.

If a romance were to begin this month, it would be characterized by a strong feeling of companionship, but it could also be to a certain extent a tad impersonal and perhaps lacking in intensity and intimacy, no worries allow it to run its course.

You are able to stand your ground and assert yourself more than usual this month. You will do your best to make an impression and these attempts are either assisted or challenged by the circumstances in which you find yourself and by others. You have get-up-and-go attitude to move your plans further, and you are more enterprising. You want to leave your mark on the world in some way – however big or small – and you are excited to do so.

Love is in the air and you will want to make most of now. There is a basic drive to appreciate and taste life. You’re in a loving, passionate mood, and if you have no lover at the moment, make/wear something beautiful, luscious, and attractive in whatever arena you most enjoy. All creative acts are favored now. Dancing or some other vital and sensual self-expression would be especially fulfilling.

You may now want to stop and re-evaluate your needs and desires. Physically, emotionally and financially you will want to tread calmly until this phase passes for you. You may feel quite restricted in what you do and perhaps this is why you may want to run and hide from the world. It’s a very strong time for smoothing out complications that likely arose in your relationships last month.

Maybe a conflict or a rival that has surfaced is the reason for all of this. You tend to review your choices and options. No need to take unnecessary risks or do anything too extreme. Issues of sharing, including financial matters, can be the source of some conflict or drama. Now is definitely not the time to make ripples or waves in the water. Do not wallow or try to feel you can fix the world’s problems.

Use this time to re-evaluate your life and perhaps change what is not working well for you. Make an extra added effort to get along with others around you whether it is professionally or personally. Keeping low key and looking into what could make your life better now will lead to positive outcomes for you in the future.

VIRGO

Once again, you’ll have to focus your attention on money matters (legacies, trusts, loans or fund-raising) even though there may still be some health problems nagging at you. Pending matters may come to an end; there could be a death, a legacy causing you sorrow and joy/relief at the same time. Clearing out psychic “junk” or ridding yourself of bad habits may be part of the picture now. You are more willing than usual to explore life’s secrets. This is an especially introspective month during which you have the chance to truly uncover your personal strengths and talents.

You have a tendency to act and reflect automatically, and you could come across as an “open book” now. It’s a favorable time for solving problems and to work on improving your skills. Circumstances are such that you need to become accustomed to communication or travel. You tend to say what you believe now. Keep in mind that what you say or write now has impact, for better or for worse!

You focus strongly on relationships – some good and some not so good. While there will be tremendous togetherness and warmth with close companions and loved ones, at the same time there can be rivalry bordering on open animosity with an adversary. Special attention to and from a partner is in focus, and flattery will get you everywhere if you use it wisely. At the same time you’re also advised to slow down a bit and don’t get carried away in emotions or excitement.

This month, you are more than ever passionate and daring. Some agitation and desire for exciting activity is experienced. Essentially, you are looking to expand your activities and opportunities for higher studies, travel or simply new subjects may be presented. You become aggressively involved in expanding your basic beliefs and your philosophies about life. You may find someone that you are willing to follow; this person may be a spiritual guru or a business mentor. Creative projects can flourish with enlarged focus and redoubled efforts that somehow don’t tire you out.

You can now be addicted to the thrill of getting to know a person inside and out, and to the power of love and sex. Intensity is especially important you now. It is time to move on to issues that relate more to others than you, that are about to arise. Past issues will resolve themselves or will dissolve enough to need less of your consideration.

Be prepared for a change (as in end of a problem or a relationship) that will cause you both pleasure and pain at the same time. Work on ending awful lifestyle and junk that you think can bring upon a significant change in your personal life. This is a perfect time to do so. You feel the need to keep passion alive, and when it settles in a relationship, you can be addicted to flirting with other people in order to feel alive and potent.

Your desire for exploring the secrets of love and sex increases as you feel more alive than usual. Reevaluate yourself and what your intentions are. You will surprise yourself and perhaps others around you in how much you can actually change for the better.

Unveil your strengths and romantic talent. It will prove positive for you in the end.
