ARIES
(March 21-April 20)
Aggressive decision-making could be high on your list of priorities as Mars moves through the sign of Gemini and your 3rd house. However, it might be better to wait until another time, especially when dealing with your finances. Communications and short trips may become difficult or even hectic due to temporarily confusing vibrations from Mercury. Secret plans with friends are indicated sometime after April 12, along with associations with music, hospitals, the ocean, humanitarian efforts and the signs Pisces and Sagittarius. Good news is also a possibility, but also expect delays, cancellations and false starts.
TAURUS
(April 21-May 21)
Celestial energies are chaotic as your planetary ruler, Venus, moves through the sign of Gemini and your 2nd house. Vibrations from Mercury could cause delays, cancellations and general confusion, especially if you were born close to April 21. Look out for a major blow to your bank account close to April 10 through impulse buys, hospital bills, loans to friends and overly generous donations. Spending too much on your children, lovers and for recreational activities is shown close to April 14. It would be in your best interest to wait for a later date to make major purchases and financial decisions.
GEMINI
(May 22-June 21)
Cosmic forces are less than favorable this week as your planetary ruler, Mercury, seemingly moves in a backward direction through the sign of Taurus and your 12th house. You may have trouble getting to sleep due to subconscious preoccupations, which in turn could cause you to oversleep the next morning. The tendency to have trouble concentrating or feeling "spaced out" is also likely at this time. Secret sexual episodes with the signs Scorpio or Aries are indicated close to April 11. Misunderstandings and cancellations involving friends and group situations are forecasted just after April 14.
CANCER
(June 22-July 22)
Intense and sexual feelings are indicated late on April 9 as your ruling Moon moves through the sign of Sagittarius and your 6th house. Influences from Pluto could bring about physical healing, deep connections with co-workers and associations with the signs Aries and Scorpio. But cosmic situations become more diverse close to April 10, with possible depression and difficulties in relationships, immediately followed by happy feelings and good news. By April 13, you'll be ready to stay close to home. Or maybe a sexual liaison with a Pisces or Sagittarius is more what you had in mind!
LEO
(July 23-Aug. 23)
Spirituality, higher forms of education and travel are highlighted as your ruling Sun moves through the sign of Aries and your 9th house. Although you may feel like initiating new endeavors, cosmic forces beckon you to first complete what has not yet been finished. Positive vibrations from Jupiter could bring financial enhancements, trips, good fortune and benefits from the signs Sagittarius or Pisces close to April 11, while effortless sex and romance become available to you around April 12, especially if the signs Scorpio or Aries are involved. Psychic connections with lovers and children are also indicated at this time.
VIRGO
(Aug. 24-Sept. 22)
Celestial conditions may become aggravating as your planetary ruler, Mercury, regresses through the sign of Taurus and your 9th house. Difficulties with trips, spiritual doubts and problems dealing with schools or universities are all forecasted. This is not the time to make major travel plans or financial decisions. Finishing up what has been left incomplete would be a much better use of your energy. Deep emotions, sexual feelings, psychic connections with a parent and the transformation of your living space are all possibilities around April 11. The signs Scorpio and Aries could be involved.
LIBRA
(Sept. 23-Oct. 23)
Cosmic vibrations are challenging this week as your planetary ruler, Venus, moves through the sign of Gemini and your 9th house. Difficulties may surface dealing with travel, places of worship and surrounding universities. This is not the best time to make vacation plans or to enroll in school. Difficulties with lovers, children and airlines are indicated close to April 10, especially if the signs Aquarius or Capricorn have anything to do with it. Oversleeping, talking too much and a lack of direction are indicated around April 14. The signs Sagittarius and Pisces could be involved.
SCORPIO
(Oct. 24-Nov. 22)
You already know how important sex is in your life, but it's never been so obvious as now. With Pluto in your 2nd house and Mars in your 8th, the subject of sex has become impossible to ignore. But confusing influences from Mercury could be messing with your sensual life, causing communication difficulties and cancelled dates with current lovers. Celestial circumstances improve slightly on April 12, with improved working conditions and a chance for romance, especially if the sign Leo is involved. Cosmic forces get even better with the possibility of erotic encounters with a Pisces or Sagittarius sometime after April 13, or you may just end up alone but with a really great fantasy.
SAGITTARIUS
(Nov. 23-Dec. 20)
Celestial influences have gone haywire as your planetary ruler, Jupiter, regresses through the sign of Virgo and your 10th house. Delays, cancellations and general confusion are indicated within your work situation. Figuring out what to wear could also become more challenging than usual. These higher stress levels could affect your digestion or even make you sick, so take better care of yourself to overcompensate. Romance and recreation are indicated close to April 11, especially with the sign Leo. Close relationships may be taken for granted around April 14. The signs Libra and Taurus could be involved. Sexual and business opportunities with a Capricorn or Aquarius are also shown.
CAPRICORN
(Dec. 21-Jan. 20)
Cosmic harmony is with you as your planetary rulers, Saturn and Uranus, harmoniously unite. A new way of thinking is changing the way that you live your daily life. New friends, contacts and lovers could suddenly come into your life, especially by phone or through the Internet. Lucky vibrations from Jupiter could bring increases in faith, opportunities for travel and a higher education at any time. A new love affair with the signs Aquarius, Sagittarius or Pisces is also indicated. However, because of Mercury's current backward motion, new beginnings may only be false starts.
AQUARIUS
(Jan. 21-Feb. 18)
Planetary forces are relatively harmonious as your planetary rulers, Uranus and Saturn, beneficially connect. But vibrations from a retrograde Mercury urge you to look back rather than forward. This is a perfect opportunity to procrastinate on any new directions and complete your unfinished business. Influences from Venus could cause you to overspend on children, romantic dates and recreational activities close to April 10. But positive associations from Jupiter could bring good fortune, career expansion and sexual opportunities with a Sagittarius or Pisces. Expect delays.
PISCES
(Feb. 19-March 20)
Your daily routine may not be so routine with Mercury moving in reverse motion through your 3rd house. Expect delays and cancellations, as well as communication and transportation challenges. But light rays from the Sun could bring romance and financial enhancements around April 11, especially if the sign Leo is involved. Slight discord from Venus could create problems with your living situation and a lack of appreciation toward loved ones on April 13. Influences from Mars are bringing you higher energy levels, intense emotions and increased activity within your home close to April 14. The signs Aries and Scorpio could be involved.
