Happy Birthday, Aries!

The April 12th birthday personality has the ability to express feelings in a soft tone and get the point across.

If today is your birthday, your friends admire your genuine love for life! It is so “refreshing” to find someone who is like you. With this comes wisdom and you love to share it with people… anybody who will listen.

You develop relationships based on trust but will not tolerate anything dark or negative. You feel that you make your own beds so you hesitate to show empathy for those who are lazy and take life one day at a time.

The 12th April birthday astrology also predicts that you understand that life has lessons and if we learn them, we can understand the true meaning of what is to live not just exists.

As a child, we discovered life in a different light from adulthood. As a parent, this Aries birthday person understands what a great honor it is to be one. As part of being of parent, you have to teach the child how to become an adult. This will come through communicating effectively those lessons learned.

You April 12 birthday horoscope profile shows that you are great at planning events as you can openly facilitate a communication line between yourself and your co-workers. Those born on this date are moved by the motivating factor of money. You are always trying to make a dollar or two.

You have an optimistic view of how life works and can be generous when it comes to giving to those less fortunate. While this is an honorable quality, you must take care of “numero uno” first. You cannot go lacking due to other’s disappointments, carelessness or dysfunctions.

The April 12th birthday personality is always in excellent health. You eat right, exercise and see the doctor once a year. You are only disharmonious when you have taken on too much and stress affects your well-being.

Your Daring Dating Horoscopes Beginning April 12th

David Wells, Astrologer

From The Astrology Room

 

Aries
Your cup runneth over. Does that mean you’ve got more offers than an offering place in offer land, or does it mean you’re at the end of it and you can’t contain that fact much longer? Either way Aries, it’s time to pick one, ditch one or give it up for Easter.

Taurus
I had a very hot summer with a Taurus, my goodness it was the stuff of legend and I am sure you’re a legend in your own neck of the woods! This week it’s your reputation for slow and steady that’s caught someone’s attention, so give him or her what they want. Slow and steady.

Gemini
It’s not easy with Mars in your sign, he’s over enthusiastic about a lot of things and when it comes to your love life, he could have you rushing in where you’d normally step back. Is that a bad thing? Not always, but with Mercury assisting a social surge you could end up making promises you can’t keep.

Cancer
Surprising events may cause a re-think on a day-to-day level, things like house moves, job changes and the like. What does that have to do with dating? As you change where you live, where you work perhaps, you change the group of people you mix with and therefore new dating opportunities arrive. Perfect.

Leo
The best laid plans and all that! You could find yourself delayed for that first date, second dates to before you ask, so build in some extra time. If you miss out on date number three take a step back and ask if the universe is trying to tell you something? Three strikes.

Virgo
A quick burst of dating site activity at the start of the week could lead you into a bit of a ‘what’s the point’ midweek ponder. Avoid it by making yourself the priority, by filling your week with stuff you like to do, like to go and see and get involved in. That, my dear Virgo, is the point.

Libra
As eloquent as you’d like to think you are, and you can be, sometimes you just have to tell it how it is in a voice loud enough to blow the beard off a hipster, if not his beard then maybe his beanie hat? Anyone else you’d like to put straight? Someone finds this week’s rant oddly attractive.

Scorpio
Finding the right person starts with finding a whole heap of wrong ones, we all know that and truthfully Scorps, there’s probably no other way. Bet that’s set you up for the day. A dose of honesty is being beamed in via Pluto, you’d prefer that to the illusions of Neptune surely? Kiss a few frogs.

Sagittarius
Jupiter and Venus are having a fall out, an exchange of words that may result in some over the top behaviour and if you’re in the first flush of love’s young dream, it can be off-putting. The rules are really very simple; engage your brain before opening your mouth, engage your ears before half-baked replies.

Capricorn
At the top of this week you’re sure you’ve said something wrong, hit a bad start with someone perhaps? You really haven’t Capricorn, what you’ve actually done is send a truth-dragon their way. Let them face it, let them realise you saw something others haven’t seen. Patience.

Aquarius
If you’re looking for some interesting conversation, some sparkling personality and maybe a snog by dessert; you know where to go. Yes, you probably do Aquarius but is going back the best way forward? Clearly not or I wouldn’t have mentioned it. Heavenly dating advice is to stop, think again, go home.

Pisces
Centering yourself is a good idea, just slowing down, taking stock of where you’re at and what you want next. Then you can proceed at your leisure Pisces but do proceed. Venus wants you to have romance in your life, Jupiter is trying to make it all seem so urgent. It really isn’t.

Your Love Horoscopes for the Weekend of April 12th

Sarah Bartlett, Astrologer

From The Astrology Room

 

With Jupiter turning retrograde in Sagittarius this week, some of our more adventurous plans or love affairs may be put on the back-burner. We may have to rethink, renegotiate or simply be patient and wait for this reflective, philosophical energy to pass.

In fact it will mean that in a few weeks time, you will be able to change any romantic course of events in a new, and brighter light. With Venus joining Mercury in Pisces, it will however, be easier to keep your secrets safe – but only with yourself.

 

ARIES

We admire, love and nurture our friends, lovers or partners. Often, we import these kind of people into our lives because we believe these qualities to be lacking in ourselves. For example, at the moment you can’t get enough of romantic admirers. However, this week, if you look carefully, you will see the romantic lover and the impulsive friend are one and the same. In fact they are both you.

 

 

TAURUS

This week, if you could have just one beautiful flash forward of how things will be, or just one word from someone, you’d be content forever. So right now, nurture your own desires and start to take responsibility for the choices you have made, whether good or bad. Let go of the past, don’t look back, and then you can start to walk free from regrets.

 

 

GEMINI

Thanks to Mars in your own sign, you now have the confidence to speak your mind, and to ask for what you truly need. This is the chance to think positively about your own self, take love seriously and pull out the stops to achieve your heart’s desire. ‘Enlightenment’ in its purest essence, is the art of seeing into the nature of one’s own being. You are about to see through the window to your own soul’s desire.

 

 

CANCER

There’s a distinct feeling of aloof detachment around you at the moment. Recently, you’ve been fearful of rejection and had to play the ‘free spirited, careless little old me’ game. Luckily, with a rational approach to your moods and a whimsical approach to love and life, you begin to see that someone special is actually in agreement with you.

 

 

LEO

Whether you want to make it clear that you fancy someone, or just to clear the air with the one you love, it’s time to do the very thing that you aren’t that keen on doing: speaking up. So welcome and embrace the unpredictable. Know that being honest won’t send someone away. In fact, they are there for you, so trust in their integrity.

 

 

VIRGO

You’re in the middle of making a difficult decision. It’s hardly surprising you’ll find it harder than usual this week with both Mercury and Venus in your opposite sign of Pisces. In fact, you’re in the mood to get away for a while to get some ‘space.’ It’s hard to commit yourself to something which a few months ago might have been easy. The planets are encouraging you to see love from a new angle. Time to reflect on it a little.

 

 

LIBRA

With the sun in your opposite sign of Aries, there’s a renewed sense of being true yourself. At last the light breaks through. Because, in a way, you know if you aren’t true to yourself, then how can you be true to anyone else? So make it clear who you are and what you want, and do so with all your heart.

 

 

SCORPIO

So why are you letting someone manipulate you or get away with thinking they’re right? I’m not saying a partner or lover is emphatically wrong and you’re right. I’m not saying ‘rebel’, but I am saying stand up and fight for your cause. Please look at what you’re giving up to keep the peace. It’s time to stand up for you.

 

 

SAGITTARIUS

Committed love is important to you, but with your ruler turning retrograde in your own sign this week, maybe you need to take a step back rather than forward? With hand on heart and a sudden flurry of romantic indulgence, you realise that your independence is sacred too. Soon, you will know the way forward for real, mutual understanding if attached, and if single, the chance to honour your true needs.

 

 

CAPRICORN

New ideas and interesting romance are enticing. But please think carefully before replacing the devil you know for a newer model. Let your partner or current lover enjoy a little battle of wills, and the mental arrows flying between you will be tipped not only with love’s gold, but the power of a real connection.

 

 

AQUARIUS

You’re being slightly led astray by all your friends’ opinions. Could it be you’ve lost touch with your instincts? Relax. If you were sure enough to start something (whether a love affair, new beginning, an ending or parting of the ways) then be sure enough to get on with it. Then those who think they know best, will remember next time to think twice before opening their mouths.

 

 

PISCES

You’re deeply uncertain about whether to make a promise to someone or not. You feel you deserve only what you get, and as that’s not very much right now, it confirms that old opinion that you’re worth very little. But with Venus moving into your sign this week, you realise the only promise you need to make, is to please yourself first and that in fact, you’re worth a lot more than anyone can imagine. You deserve love just by virtue of being on this planet. Time to set the record straight.

HERE’S HOW TO READ YOUR HOROSCOPE THE RIGHT WAY

LEE COLEMAN

 

I know what you’re thinking: there’s a WRONG way to read my horoscope?

Yes, friend. Wrong. And not just kind of wrong (like, McDonald’s breakfast on a hangover when no one is watching, wrong), but flat out, wrong wrong.

The reason? Horoscopes are written for ascendant, or rising signs, and you’ve been likely reading for your sun sign. If your sun and ascendant sign happen to be the same zodiac sign, you’re fine. You can ignore this whole article.

But, it’s much more likely they’re not the same, in which case, you need to keep reading.

HISTORY OF THE HOROSCOPE

This all started way back in ancient Egypt.

Egyptian culture has had a profound influence on astrology, which was itself a product of cross-pollination spanning most of the ancient world. It was the Egyptians, however, who are likely responsible for the advent of the ascendant, if but inadvertently.

To measure time during the night, when the sun was hidden and could not be relied upon as a time-tracking tool, the Egyptians split the sky into ten-degree segments, also called decans. These decans started to accumulate meanings over time, whereby being born when a particular decan rose over the horizon could have auspicious significance.

Eventually, the concept of a rising decan morphed into the idea of an ascendant sign, synonymous with the zodiac sign that rose over the horizon at the exact moment of birth. The ancient Greek astrologers called this point the ‘horoskópos’, the horoscope, or ‘hour marker.’

So, it turns out that the term ‘horoscope’ which we casually throw about as an epithet for that snippety bit of astro-insight usually found in the back pages of a magazine or newspaper, means no such thing. The horoskópos, a.k.a. the ascendant, is about something much more profound: it marks a child’s first breath, when the soul enters the body and this life for the first time.

Later referred to in ancient astrological texts as ‘the helmsman’, the ascendant and its ruler were considered responsible for steering our souls through life, for better or for worse.

The creation and adoption of the ascendant was one of the first steps in astrology’s evolution from omen-based forecasting to a craft that could focus its sights on an individual’s fortunes. And if you plan on using astrology in any form or fashion to know more about your own fortunes, you’d better get cozy with your ascendant sign, pronto.

RISING SIGN VS SUN SIGN: WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE?

If you aren’t already aware, the ascendant is a highly personal astrological point typically found in the first house of the natal chart. Sometimes called the rising sign, the ascendant is the quickest changing point in the chart, moving much faster than either the sunor moon.

This is why astrologers, as well as your friend who dabbles in amateur astro-sleuthing, are so concerned about the time you were born. Without a relative level of birth time accuracy, it can be very difficult to ascertain the sign or degree of the ascendant.

This becomes a problem for a few reasons. Firstly, the sign, ruler of, and aspects to the ascendant are incredibly important. Planets near the ascendant are particularly so, as they can deftly texture our appearance, personality, and how we come across to others. Without an accurate birth time, however, it becomes very hard to know the position of the ascendant.

Secondly, the sign of the ascendant cements the chart into being. The natal chart is comprised of twelve different houses, which act as celestial stages where the drama of life plays out. The ascendant sign naturally dictates which zodiac sign will rule the first house of the natal chart, which in turn sets the signs and boundaries of every other house thereafter.

HOW ARE HOROSCOPES WRITTEN, ANYWAY?

To write horoscopes, astrologers pivot on the sign of the first house: to write Aries, they put Aries on the first house, to write Taurus, they then put Taurus as the sign of the first house, and so on, throughout the zodiac. Each time this is done, they reassess the house positions of the planets and write their reflections accordingly.

This has major ramifications for the average horoscope reader. Unbeknownst to you, the horoscope you’ve been loyally reading for years as an ‘Aries’ was for Aries rising.

To illustrate this, let’s use an example. Say an astrologer wants to focus on Venus’ transit of Libra in their upcoming horoscopes. As an Aries sun sign, you read your Aries horoscope as per usual, understanding that this means Venus would affect the seventh house of partners in romance and business. Venus transiting this space may bring us closer together to partners or highlight the need to find equilibrium in partnerships by using Libran tactics like objectivity and diplomacy.

Reflecting on how we’re connecting to our partners is never bad advice, but it may not be as helpful an edict as it could be, if there was a more accurate horoscope in store for you. Going further with our example, let’s imagine that you’re still an Aries sun, but have just realized that Taurus is your rising sign.

For Taurus rising, this same horoscope would mean that Venus’ journey through Libra would affect the sixth house instead of the seventh, which deals with health, colleagues, chores and errands. Our workplace may become a place of relative ease during this transit, and we may feel more able to achieve moderation in managing our health.

Neither horoscope is better than another, but it may very well be the case that one more closely mimics how our life is unfolding in real time.

SO NOW WHAT?

Now that you cannot un-know the importance of your ascendant, à la Spike Lee, do the right thing: get your chart done and find out your ascendant sign.

After that, there are no hard-set rules. Note your ascendant sign and start reading the horoscope connected to that sign as a first port of call. Many ardent followers of Astrology read their sun sign horoscope as a secondary, ‘symbolic’ horoscope to layer on top of their ascendant sign horoscope; some even read horoscopes associated with their sun, ascendant, and moon sign.

As ever, your horoscopes (like all astrological info) are tools for you to use as you see fit. Find out what works best for you, and go with it!
