Daily Horoscopes for April 22nd

General Daily Horoscope

Romantic Venus entered ardent Aries yesterday, heating up the relationship landscape. Today anything can happen when Venus joins unpredictable Uranus. Emotional lightning can electrify our desires and we won’t likely be satisfied by familiar routine. However, the Moon enters cautious Capricorn at 6:24 am EDT, reminding us that acting on our unrestrained feelings isn’t always the smartest idea. Some fantasies are better left unfulfilled.

Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

You are totally ready for whatever experiences the day may bring. However, you might also wish that you had more stability in your life now. These divergent feelings can grow into a real dilemma, especially if you aren’t willing to admit that a part of you is very comfortable to continue with your same old patterns. Once you acknowledge your basic need for security, you can move on to whatever comes next.

Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

You aren’t easily satisfied as your key planet Venus joins eccentric Uranus, tempting you to reach for something or someone that you cannot have now. However, you don’t need to waste your time trying to fulfill your transitory desires today. Instead, try applying yourself toward meeting your current obligations. Although being responsible doesn’t sound as much fun as chasing a dream, the rewards should justify your total concentration.

Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

You want to hang out with your friends this evening, but it will be tricky to actually follow through with your wishes. Someone who’s close to you may need your assistance and you can’t ignore a request for your help. It’s important to process any unexpressed anger or resentment you have over a change of plans so that it doesn’t get in the way of a meaningful experience. Being flexible enables you to make the most of a difficult situation.

Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

It’s important to put on a happy face, even if you’re struggling with serious issues today. However, this tactic isn’t a license to avoid the pressing issues of the day. Your smartest strategy is to stay aware of the current duality; remember that your inside and outside are following different scripts now and there isn’t any need to fit everything into a tidy package. The stress will settle down and then the dilemma will probably just fade away.

Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

Your mind is on your well-being today with the Moon activating your 6th House of Routine, and you may be reconsidering ways to improve your diet and upgrade your exercise program. The problem is that you are also looking forward to a bit of indulgent behavior — and this may be incongruent with your plans for healthier living. Remember, your approach doesn’t have to be an all-or-nothing strategy. Don’t be overly self-critical just because you’re human. Cut yourself some slack and enjoy earthly pleasures while you can.

Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

Although the responsible Capricorn Moon assures that you are being practical, you’re still looking for some fun today. Fortunately, work and play aren’t incompatible, but you could run into a problem when trying to balance the two. Life becomes more complicated if someone throws you a curve ball by inviting you to do something special. Your tendency is to say no, but it’s a smart idea to take a chance and say yes.

Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

You may shock someone today by spilling the beans about what you want before you even think to censor yourself. Once you speak your piece, however, there’s no way to take back your words — even if you wish you could. Inadvertently hurting someone’s feelings isn’t your idea of successful communication, so think about your impact before you open your mouth and say what’s on your mind.

Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

You might believe that you’re being lighthearted and playful, but your words can carry sharp hooks today, even if your intentions are all good. You are a champion of sarcasm now; your dry humor and your incisive wit may be more biting than you realize. Don’t tone down your ideas; just make sure that you express the truth with kindness.

Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

Your current dilemma could pit your desire for fun against your more responsible need to save money. Your financial condition may be unstable now, yet you don’t want your lack of expendable cash to deter your big weekend plans. Fortunately, you may discover that it’s easier than you thought to cut back on unnecessary spending without negatively affecting your quality of life.

Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

These last several days have been rather strange, as if steady winds are blowing in from other dimensions. Now, however, the otherworldliness dissipates and your life begins to return to normal. Don’t waste time attempting to figure out where you’re going; just focus on what needs to be done for others. Your greatest pleasure comes from being productive in the present moment, not dreaming about the unknown future.

Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

The thrill ride continues and, although you have gained some common sense, your imagination has also been unlocked. Thankfully, you can distinguish between your dreams and reality today, but there’s interference on all your communication lines, so it’s impossible to speak with the same clarity you feel. Move through all discussions deliberately, while making certain everyone understands what you’re saying before moving on to the next subject.

Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

It seems as if someone’s trying to make you feel guilty, especially if you are rebellious and do something now that’s just for yourself. But it’s not your job to keep everyone happy while you are left unfulfilled. This can be a great time to experiment and express yourself in radical ways because the security-conscious Capricorn Moon prevents you from taking your unorthodox behavior too far.

Daily Horoscopes for April 21st

General Daily Horoscope

Our senses are on edge with anticipation as sweet Venus rushes into reckless Aries today, tempting us to take risks. We are enthusiastic with five planets in Aries, especially since Venus feeds our desire for something new and different as she moves to hook up with wild Uranus tomorrow. Additionally, the optimistic Sagittarius Moon lifts our spirits even higher. Still, a little self-restraint is necessary until Mercury turns direct on Saturday.

Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

The good news is that Venus, the planet of love, is now visiting your signuntil May 15, improving your chances to receive more pleasure and wealth. However, you must be careful about overindulging or overspending when you seek sensual and material gratification. You still need to mitigate any tension that is created in the pursuit of your idyllic visions. Don’t be discouraged if it takes longer than you wish to reach your dreams.

Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

You are moving into a phase when your fantasies can lead you down new avenues of exploration. Beautiful Venus is now in your 12th House of Imagination, activating dreams that can break you out of your old habitual desires. Remember, you don’t have to materialize every flight of fancy. Just acknowledge the opportunity to widen your horizons as you consider roads previously not taken.

Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

Although you may still be working through a few self-imposed limitations, you’re on the verge of transforming how you relate to your friends. Your new way of interacting with others brings refreshing waves of change to your relationships and social life. However, everything you do has consequences, so keep in mind that your easygoing style may not be interpreted as all fun and games by someone else. Instead of assuming that everyone is on the same wavelength, take the time to check in with those close to you.

Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

It’s wonderful if amicable Venus in your 10th House of Career makes your job more enjoyable over the next few weeks. But her public position in your chart can create anxiety as you are now pulled outside of your safety zone. Fortunately, moving beyond your comfortable limits should be less stressful than you expect; in fact, you could be rewarded for your courage if you are willing to take a chance.

Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

Thankfully, the sky clears today, leaving you with an unobstructed view of what’s possible. Your imagination is vivid, allowing you to see your life the way you want it to be, rather than limiting your vision to the way things are now. This newfound perspective enables you to set lofty goals and, fortunately, with a lot of persistence and a little luck, your chances of reaching them are quite good.

Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

You could be at an emotional tipping point now as you balance on the edge of a feeling that is both attractive and frightening. Although someone or something can awaken your interest, it may be too early to respond openly. Exercising caution is a good idea while Venus is in your 8th House of Intimacy, especially if your excitement causes you to lose objectivity. Move slowly before jumping in with both feet.

Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

Your ruling planet Venus is in your 7th House of Others for the next few weeks and this should have a positive impact on your partnerships. A new situation seems to inspire your creativity and playfulness, which in turn makes you more attractive to others. Be willing to entertain business or personal relationship possibilities that you would normally pass by. Most importantly, don’t be afraid to enjoy yourself now while you can.

Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

Venus enters your 6th House of Work today, enticing you to get down to the nuts and bolts of what makes your life function most effectively. Practicing self-restraint often helps you avoid an awkward social situation, but now charming Venus in spontaneous Aries can push you to take action, instead. How you manage this impulsive energy over the next few weeks is up to you, but don’t forget that depth and intensity is required in any relationship or you’ll lose interest very quickly.

Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

Your feelings about a special friend or lover are quite straightforward, but if you freely express your emotions it will definitely increase the complexity of the interpersonal dynamics. You might think you can just play it cool today, but the Moon in your sign makes it challenging to remain on the sidelines when your desires are stirred. Still, it’s a smart idea to consider the consequences of your actions before you make any moves.

Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

You may believe that you’re running out of time today, but it’s smarter to wait until after Mercury turns direct this weekend before you do anything rash. Usually, you are able to be patient if you have a plan in place, but your feelings are strong enough now to tempt you to behave impulsively. Your greatest strength is your ability to calculate cause and effect. You’ll know when it’s time; until then, keep reminding yourself that you could lose a fantastic opportunity if you act too soon.

Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

You may be ready to start your journey, however, you probably don’t have a clear idea of which direction to take today. You might have thought that you knew where you were going, but you aren’t so certain anymore. You would be wise to consider making a correction to your itinerary before it’s too late. Even if you’re drawn toward multiple destinations, choosing one path now will pay off faster than you realize.

Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

You could become interested in new ways to make money as enriching Venus moves through your 2nd House of Income over the next few weeks. But it’s more important to reconsider any changes to your current course before putting them into action because they will likely sound better than they actually are in reality. Remember that you might want more than you need now, so it’s wise to scale back voluntarily before circumstances require you to abandon your unrealistic plans.

Weekend Lunar Love Horoscope for April 15 – 17

Weekend Love: Lunar Love

Brace Yourself

April 15 – 17

Friday is the quiet before the storm. The Moon in analytical Virgo is concerned with being neat, clean and orderly. No emotional messes or personal excesses are welcome in this productive and polite environment. Still, a lunar opposition to self-conscious Venus could produce a delicate moment or two in the afternoon. Is she or he flirting or is this really all about business? It may be tricky to read the signals you’re getting or even to assess your own feelings. Your best strategy is to enjoy the moment without making too much of it.

Saturday finds the Moon in Libra, the relationship sign that’s made for connecting with others. However, the Moon runs a gauntlet of stressful planetary aspects with edgy Uranus, punishing Pluto, aggressive Mars and restrictive Saturn that makes this a less than mellow day. Trying to accommodate and meet others halfway is Libra’s job, but even an expert peacemaker might have difficulty maintaining a cool attitude in this overheated environment.

Engaging in vigorous physical activities is an ideal way to burn off this intense energy, yet it’s best not to try anything dangerous under these risky conditions. Imbalance in relationships is also possible as one person is discontent, angry or upset and the other does everything she or he can to calm the situation. It may be wiser to get out of the line of fire if it’s obvious that emotions have overcome reason.

Sunday’s Libra Full Moon should bring issues to a head, hopefully clearing the air and making room for a fresh start.
