Written in the Stars - Week of April 3




Lunar Eclipse in Libra — Tonight, a shadow passes over the realm of our emotions. When darkness engulfs the sign of partnerships, it's time to purge and cleanse ourselves of ties and styles that no longer serve us. Don't resist change — welcome it with open arms and eyes.

ARIES
March 21 — April 19
You won't have many opportunities of this sort, Aries, so you'd be wise to keep your antennae alert for downright magical opportunities. The Sun is shining in your sign all month, making you more powerful and noticeable — it's potent stuff, so be careful what you say and do, because all will be amplified. And that big spotlight in the sky is also linked up with two wildly different characters, jovial Jupiter and stalwart Saturn. Luck is on your side when you "get serious" about "playing" with ideas, and your concept of yourself. Good changes are afoot. 

TAURUS
April 20 — May 20
What are the power struggles in your life, Taurus? Are there power plays at home, at work, beyond? The stars say you'll be fighting for your ideas with massive passion this week, and you may have to come up against some important figures in your life to do it. If you know that your complaints or demands rest on rock-solid facts, you'll have all the strength you need to make your point. However, be sure that you aren't holding tightly to these ideals simply because they're yours. Possession is not a virtue or a passport. Take time to truly know yourself.

GEMINI
May 21 — June 21
You're full of good ideas right now, Gemini. It's no surprise — you're the quick thinker of the zodiac — but now your thoughts are underscored by some stellar power. Recently, you've had some revelations about big, long-term goals. Have you considered forming a team or group to help you make these dreams come true? Your stars say that a firm plan created with enthusiasm brings you loads of luck and forward momentum — if you can slow your mind down long enough to commit these ideas to paper. Don't let inspiration slip away!

CANCER
June 22 — July 22
Don't hesitate, Cancer. The spotlight is on you, and specifically your ideas and the way you present them to the world. Your House of Career and Destiny is lit by the bountiful sun and mental Mercury — a potent combination, particularly with erratic Uranus throwing his mad genius into the mix. An old moon is setting in your House of Home and Foundation. What patterns do you need to release in order to let your wild ideas truly soar? Your stars say that your loved ones and allies can support you in this. Time for a brainstorm.

LEO
July 23 — Aug. 22
Start the countdown, Leo. One more week. Seven days until big, beautiful Jupiter leaps forward in your sign and kicks off the massive windfall of personal fortune and expansion that you're due. The hindrances are dropping away one by one — how can you prepare yourself for the upcoming whirlwind of exciting change and opportunity? What are your wildest dreams, and how could you budget your time to make them a reality? The eclipse is shadowing your House of Communication — it's time to cut certain ties so you can invest in those that truly feed you. 

VIRGO
Aug. 23 — Sept. 22
There's a new beginning forecast for you this week, Virgo, particularly in the realm of your resources. Are you re-working your budget to achieve new goals? Or perhaps you're uniting your bank account with a partner — either way, when it come to your wealth and money goals, it's time for a change. Endings always come with new beginnings, and as Jupiter prepares to leap forward in your House of Secrets, it appears you've closed the door on some old business. Sweep your metaphorical porch to prepare for exciting new arrivals. 

LIBRA
Sept. 23 — Oct. 22
It's definitely getting hot in here, Libra. But is the heat inspiring or exhausting you? The ultimate lovers, masculine Mars and feminine Venus, are doing their eternal dance in your House of Passion. And with Uranus emitting strobe light flashes in your House of Partnerships, you may find yourself drawn to those that are offbeat and "out there." Your stars say certain aspects of your current life are confining you, and it's time to shed that which keeps you from sailing. The dark moon says you must let go in order to truly embrace.

SCORPIO
Oct. 23 — Nov. 21
Sometimes, Scorpio, it's at the exact moment that we let go of needing something that it comes to us. (Don't give me that look — I didn't make the rules!) The dark moon is resting in your House of Secrets and the Past, indicating that there are some memories, traumas or old programming that you need to let go of in order to move forward as a wiser, more confident individual. That individuality is important now as you are becoming clearer and clearer about what really matters to you — and it ain't run of the mill. Trust in your inherent value.

SAGITTARIUS
Nov. 22 — Dec. 21
Time to move on, Sagittarius. The eclipse is shadowing your House of Groups, indicating that there some associations of yours that have outlived their usefulness. Whether you need to let certain organizations or allies fall to the wayside, or simply reconfigure them, it's time for a serious change when it comes to the way you relate. Don't be afraid to lay down the law and ask for what you deserve. Your stars are giving you an extra dose of power — they know how little you like the sound of closing doors. Have faith — new ones are opening. 

CAPRICORN
Dec. 22 — Jan. 19
This may be hard for you to believe Capricorn, but you are not your job. The dark moon is flying through your House of Career and Destiny, asking you to release any responsibilities that only deplete you. As the workhorse of the zodiac, you know full well that some work can feed and fulfill you. You're walking a daring tightrope now — which says two things. One: yes, your expectations have set you up for quite a fall, should you lose faith in your goal. Two: You have the courage to dream and dare what others don't. Let go of fear to grab more focus.

AQUARIUS
Jan. 20 — Feb. 18
You've finished one of your journeys, Aquarius, if — and only if — you're ready to put down this particular set of luggage. The shadow of the moon is passing over your House of Philosophy, asking you to release one of your more troubling lessons. There needn't be solemnity or ceremony unless you want it — I recommend a viking funeral. Lessons or philosophies that hurt or hold you back are to be cast into the ocean, blazing with fire. Symbolism: the ashes of your past will sail to new worlds and rise again as points of pride. Ready?
 
PISCES
Feb. 19 — March 20
Out with the old and in with the new, Pisces! I don't have to tell you how much your life is changing — you need only look around to see and feel the difference. Keep trusting your intuition — it's leading you to new resources and great new ideas about how to make money from your unique talents. Your way of communicating is positively seductive now, blessed by the energy of Mars and the charm of Venus.  Your chart couldn't get much better, with more money and prestige coming down the pipeline too. Keep doing what you're doing.
