Written in the Stars - Week of April 24




Stellium in Taurus — Motivated Mars and mental Mercury have joined the dual forces of the Sun and Moon to create a powerful Stellium in the sign of the builder. Endurance and elegance become ours when we mete our energy out carefully to make our wildest dreams into concrete realities.

ARIES

March 21 — April 19
If you can channel your impressive fire to create a slow, steady burn this week, Aries, you can accomplish anything. It's the ideal time for you to build on your current plan, with your ruler, Mars, making up part of that powerful Stellium in Taurus. (As opposed to continuing to "expand" on other enticing projects. It's time to really put your money where your mouth is, according to Mercury — or is it get your money for what your mouth does?) You'll have an edge with higher-ups and authority figures this week too, since Mars is linking up with powerful Pluto. Go get ’em.

TAURUS
April 20 — May 20
You've got no choice but to embrace being in the public eye this week, Taurus, so make it work for you. That Stellium in your sign is broadcasting loud, powerful signals and it demands your utmost focus and artistry. Astrologers often recognize you as an architect, but not always as an artist — you have both qualities and the chance to unite the two now. Your plans are viable and new resources are forecast — do you have the right team behind you to bring this plan to fruition? Assemble your most trusted friends and allies — big new projects are on the horizon.
GEMINI
May 21 — June 21
Times, they are a-changin' for you, Gemini. Your stars foretell a meteoric rise, but not without a little trek through the mud. You have nothing to fear, as this change is set to bring you more money, resources, pleasure and material security — none of which can come without change. So be sure that you aren't holding your current goods so tightly that you don't have room to carry new ones. If some projects don't pan out, or fizzle and die in the air, learn what you can and bid them farewell. A new wave is coming and the more excited you are, the better you'll ride it.

CANCER
June 22 — July 22
Keep at it, Cancer. You're on the verge of wrapping up some solid projects, and you may get a lot of input about them from friends, coworkers and other allies, this week. Maybe a bit more than you planned for or desire, in fact. But ironically, their opinions (warning: some may be touted as facts) may actually help you more solidly define exactly what you don't want. You're better served by focusing on what you have than expanding this week, so go over your plans with a keen eye to see where your current plot can be improved. A beneficial revision of your resources is forecast.

LEO
July 23 — Aug. 22
It's absolutely time to take action, Leo. There is no time like the present to make yourself known to the world and to make a big splash when it comes to your ultimate goals. Your House of Career and Destiny is home to the powerful Stellium, indicating that the only limits on your progress are those that you impose upon yourself. Does that wound your leonine pride? Don't let it. If anything, let it free you to pounce on your prey — the ideas you've been stalking from tall grass for months, even years, now. Set your goal and take concrete steps — you're fortune's favorite.

VIRGO
Aug. 23 — Sept. 22
Ready to take this show on the road, Virgo? Though you're known for being just a bit picky — the ultimate authority on to-do (and often, to-don't) lists, and your own and others' limitations — this week, you're being asked to throw some of that caution to the wind. The Stellium is firing up your House of Journeys and Philosophy, indicating that you'll benefit from branching out and letting your ideas run a little wild — imagine them like a really excited puppy who needs some exercise in the yard. You can let your mind run free while you "supervise" from a happy mental distance. 

LIBRA
Sept. 23 — Oct. 22
What do you desire from others, Libra, and how do you go about getting it? The Stellium is lighting up your House of The Other, indicating some surprise gifts or windfalls, or the initial spark of a long, slow burn that you'll want to keep alive for a long time. Resist the urge to move slowly, or to wait for someone else to kick things off. Your stars say you'll be rewarded for the effort you put forth, and as a matter of fact, you'll be imbued with a Matrix-like ability to perform expert maneuvers with enviable elegance. Get out there!

SCORPIO
Oct. 23 — Nov. 21
If you don't want to be seen or sought, Scorpio, then it would be best to keep yourself behind locked doors all week. Your House of Partnerships is on fire, lit up by the quadruple-power Stellium, making you seem like the most desirable cohort on the planet, in work, play or romance. Expect people to look to you for input — yet ironically, your chart asks that you consider what it is that your circle gives back. You benefit from weighing the pros and cons of your social circle and making moves that make you more prominent. Accept your higher position — the rest will follow. 

SAGITTARIUS
Nov. 22 — Dec. 21
How is your reputation at work, Sagittarius? Odds are good that you're known for your sudden brainstorms, out-there inspirations and the ability to get others excited about your plans. But are you as famous for your follow-through? This week, your stars ask that you to continue to focus on your main objectives, rather than chasing every white rabbit that races through your mind down its respective hole. Venus is charming the crowd in your House of Partnerships making you appear more attractive and convincing than ever — show them what you've got. 

CAPRICORN
Dec. 22 — Jan. 19
You have a knack, Capricorn, for getting others to listen and follow, just by summing the situation up as you see it. This week, the Stellium is highlighting your House of Creativity and Expression, indicating that it's time to stop waiting around for others to get the ball rolling and do your own thing. This is perfect energy for building a long-lasting playground of ideas and your chart says that just the right people are around you to make it a real party. Sudden gifts or windfalls are forecast as well — whether they pay your way or invest in you, accept it gratefully, knowing you've earned it.

AQUARIUS
Jan. 20 — Feb. 18
You don't usually need to be reminded, Aquarius, to put your own expectations and goals for yourself above those of others. But your stars say that you could use a nudge this week to better carve out a life that you love because you have built it to suit your exact needs, from the bottom up. The Stellium is lighting every corner of your House of Home and Foundations, calling for a brilliant, fun, reexamination of the way you run your day-to-day life. Are you eager for a little shake-up? Consult your inner child — in what sort of environment and routines would s/he thrive?

PISCES
Feb. 19 — March 20
Say it, Pisces. Or sing it, or write it, or paint it — but for goodness' sake, whatever "it" is, you've got to express it. The Stellium is soaring in your House of Communications, indicating that you have some energy and ideas to share with the world at large. You'll have the support that you need, with Venus roosting in your House of Home. You could even benefit from feathering your nest, or creating a "home office" space that supports your creative endeavors and other projects. Your chart promises luck when you roll up your sleeves and work. Expect great things.
