Your horoscopes for the week 22 April to 28 April, 2024
Aries – March 21 to April 20
Mercury has been reversing through your sign, which can cause misunderstandings with other people and lots of self-doubt. Mercury finally moves forwards on Thursday and – hopefully – you have learned a thing or two over the last few weeks. Your motto for the moment is from birthday great Barbra Streisand “Doubt can motivate you, so don’t be afraid of it. Confidence and doubt are at two ends of the scale, and you need both. They balance each other out.”
Taurus – April 21 to May 21
This week the Sun, Jupiter and Uranus are jumping through your sign, the Full Moon revs up your relationship zone, and Mercury moves forwards. So avoid getting stuck in a static way of thinking and a routine way of behaving. A current situation (or problem) has more flexible options and exciting possibilities than you previously thought. Your motto is from movie star (and birthday great) Barbra Streisand “I just don’t want to be hampered by my own limitations.”
Gemini – May 22 to June 21
On Thursday, Mercury (your ruling planet) finally moves forwards which will boost your confidence, energy levels, and personal magnetism. But there’s also a tricky Full Moon so, if you indulge in gossip and make hasty pronouncements, you could end up in a complicated mess. There’s a lot going on behind the scenes that you’re not aware of. Smart Twins will do some detective work (and check the facts thoroughly) before you proceed with your plans.
Cancer – June 22 to July 23
The Sun, Jupiter and Uranus are visiting your networking zone, and the Full Moon stimulates your friendship zone. So the more you mix and mingle, and the more connections you make, the better the week will be. Looking for employment? It’s time to capitalise on all the contacts you have. From family and friends to colleagues and casual acquaintances. Don’t wait for opportunities to magically appear. Be proactive about following your dreams!
Leo – July 24 to August 23
Prepare for a colourful week Cats! On Monday, the Sun/Pluto square will amp up your bossy side. Then Tuesday night’s Full Moon falls in your home zone so be on domestic drama alert. Confiscate all sharp implements and choose your words wisely, as loved ones are liable to make mountains out of molehills. Mercury moves forwards on Thursday which favours travel, education and communication as you socialise with a wide range of cosmopolitan people.
Virgo – August 24 to September 23
After nearly three weeks of confusion, chaos, delays and/or dramas, Mercury (your patron planet) finally turns direct on Thursday – yeah! Plus the Sun, Jupiter, Uranus and the Full Moon activate your travel, education and adventure zones, which encourages you to explore exciting new horizons. The wider your circle of friends and acquaintances, the more influence you will have in the big world outside your door. Being curious and confident are the keys.
Libra – September 24 to October 23
This week the planetary focus is on money and business matters, as Tuesday night’s Full Moon fires up your finance zones. But the lingering Sun/Pluto square could throw a partnership challenge in your direction (perhaps involving jealous behaviour or a power struggle). Your ruling planet Venus is visiting your relationship zone (until April 29) and Mercury turns direct on Thursday, so do your best to play the perceptive, diplomatic Libran peacemaker.
Scorpio – October 24 to November 22
Monday starts with the lingering effects of the intense Sun/Pluto square, which could amp up your control-freak tendencies. And then the Full Moon lights up your sign on Tuesday night, which could magnify your compulsive side. You’re determined to win an argument or solve a problem but don’t step on other people’s toes in the process. And don’t get stuck in a stultifying rut. Less confrontation and more cooperation will get you where you want to go.
Sagittarius – November 23 to December 21
Mercury is still retrograde until Thursday so there could be a misunderstanding with a child, teenager or friend. Choose your words carefully and look to your trusted circle of loved ones for comfort and support. With the Full Moon stimulating your seclusion zone you’ll find rest, relaxation, meditation and/or contemplation are essential. As actress (and birthday great) Shirley Maclaine says, “The most profound relationship we will ever have is the one with ourselves.”
Capricorn – December 22 to January 20
This week you’ll find life’s complicated, partnerships are unpredictable, and the rules are constantly changing, as unresolved relationship difficulties or financial issues come back to test you. Maybe you need to simplify your life, cull some of your commitments, or finally give a fair-weather friend the flick? Plus find time to spruce up your living space so Casa Capricorn is more comfortable and beautiful. Fresh flowers and relaxing music are a must!
Aquarius – January 21 to February 19
Watch out world! This week the Sun squares Pluto (in your sign) and there’s a Full Moon in your career/public/reputation zone, So you need to find appropriate ways to let off steam, and choose challenging projects to channel all your electric energy into. It’s also time to embrace and celebrate your contrary, quirky Aquarian side. As birthday great Barbra Streisand observes “I am simple, complex, generous, selfish, unattractive, beautiful, lazy and driven.”
Pisces – February 20 to March 20
Tuesday night’s Full Moon shines a bright spotlight on travel, communication and/or education. And your financial future looks rosier this week, as the planets activate your money zone in positive ways (Mercury moves forwards on Thursday and lucky Venus is visiting until April 29). So – whether you get a pay rise, take on a second job, cash in some investments, organise a garage sale or sell an important asset – it’s time to make hay while the Sun shines!
