Aries (March 21-April 19)  

Happy Birthday, Aries! The Sun is now moving through your sign, which means it’s your time of year to get energized! Others will be drawn to your light, so step forward and enjoy the opportunities that come your way. With Jupiter also in your sign (aligning together on April 11th), you’re in for a stroke of good luck! This is an excellent time to plan for your new personal year. Relationships and new initiatives are particularly blessed this coming year because you feel more confident in yourself and the world around you. Mars is activating personal matters to do with home and family for the next few weeks, pushing you to take care of things. Focus on issues around the house. Tackle some difficult projects. The Full Moon on April 5th sits opposite your sign propelling you into motion. It’s best to channel this energy into something positive like sports, athletics or body-conscious activities. Caution against knee-jerk reactions and impulsive decisions. Nonetheless, it’s a good time for spring cleaning — literally and metaphorically. Clear the clutter in your life to make room for new experiences. The New Moon occurring on April 19 is particularly auspicious, as it’s the second one in your sign and it’s occurring at a solar eclipse. What do you want to bring into reality for yourself? What would you like to accomplish?

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

You’ll find yourself feeling more reflective as your birthday approaches, Taurus. You might need some alone time to consider how things have been playing out and what’s really important to you. Push yourself to wrap things up and clear the decks as you get ready for your personal new year. It’s a good time to reconnect with friends and colleagues or get outside to meet your neighbours. You’re craving more social stimulus as Mars pushes through your Third House of Communications — sharing, learning and connection. The Full Moon on April 5th can bring to light issues with day-to-day routines that have become stuck or stagnant. You’re ready to let go of negative belief systems and bad habits that aren’t serving you anymore. It might be time to call it quits on something that causes too much grief. The New Moon on April 19th gives you an opportunity to get quiet and consider how you can best nurture yourself, especially emotionally and spiritually. Meanwhile, with Venus activating your House of Wealth and Resources, you’re likely to come up with some money-making ideas and new investments. Your strength will increase and your sense of self will get a major boost! This is a favourable season for relationships to prosper! Singles? Put yourself out there and forget about being shy. Coupled? Plan a sexy getaway with your special person.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

It’s time to spread your wings and flex your social muscles, Gemini. As the Sun makes its way through your House of Friendship (among other things), you’re eager to reacquaint yourself with people you might have lost touch with, as well as make new connections in general. Gathering places where like-minded people meet up will be on your agenda, especially if there’s a humanitarian element linked to it. Meanwhile, Mars is activating your House of Earnings, Wealth and Possessions making this a good time to go over money issues and re-evaluate what you have, what you’d like to have, and what you owe. Get out in front of things with a solid budgetary plan. You’re eager to invest in yourself now and take yourself and your abilities seriously. Nonetheless, be careful of impulsive purchases for the next few weeks. (At the very least, look into the return policy.) The Full Moon on April 5th will activate your adventurous nature making it a good time to get creative and express yourself authentically. Carve out some time to play with those you love. Fair Venus moves into your sign on April 10th covering you in faery dust, and this further amplifies your desire for meaningful connections. Ooo, la la! Not only will you meet new people, and experience romantic trysts, your zest for life will be palpable. Others will be drawn to your passionate spirit! The New Moon occurring on April 19th offers you an excellent time for a replenishing rest. Cozy atmospheres and nourishing experiences await.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

The Sun activates your ‘take charge’ nature as it moves across the top of your chart, Cancer. You’re looking at the big picture and considering your future goals amidst your current responsibilities. It’s a powerful time to move a mountain or two and shoot for the stars! As Mars makes its way through your sign over the next few weeks, your sense of self gets stronger, making you a force to be reckoned with. You will easily deal with daunting tasks and plough through your to-do lists. This is also a good time to deal with authorities or difficult people because your tenacity is strong and you’re not likely to back down. Caution again overdoing things around the Full Moon on April 5th. Nonetheless, you will get more clarity about outer world matters that must be addressed related to issues at home. The New Moon occurring on April 19th offers you an opportunity to tune in with yourself and consider how to meet your current set of needs as you look to the road ahead. You’re feeling more optimistic about your future, because now you can draw a map of where you want to go.

This is an excellent time to open up to career opportunities because you’re more open-minded and receptive to new ideas. At the same time, you’re ready to let go of old patterns that don’t suit you any longer as Mars activates your 12th House. It’s a good time to clean the house literally and metaphorically. The Full Moon on April 5th might activate your impulsive nature. Be sure to check in with yourself (and maybe those close to you) so you don’t leap too far before assessing the risks. Venus will stimulate your need for connection and friendship, making this a wonderful time to reconnect with people you haven’t seen for a while — or make some new friends. The New Moon on April 19th offers you time to reflect on the journeys that you feel pulled to experience. This might be in the form of a creative project that you eventually share with others.
