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.

The Sun in Aries
Leadership qualities tend to come to the forefront. Optimism is high and challenges seem a bit easier to meet. Taking care of number one can be a main theme in this period. Aggression levels and the need for adventure are likely to rise as well. Impulsive, decisive, and courageous actions by even the meekest of souls are very possible at this time.

Sun Conjunt Mercury
One’s ears may be closed to the advice of others.

Sun Conjunct Jupiter
Optimism and confidence are likely to be high in many. Life’s positive energies are very strong. Gain through luck is very possible.

Moon In Virgo
Affection is likely to be expressed by proactive action. Overt displays of love may be difficult for many to muster. Much of the affection one is shown may looked upon as suspect. Avoid endlessly critiquing yourself and those around you.

Moon Opposition or Square Neptune
Generally it is best to avoid confrontation during this aspect. Many are likely to find the arts very attractive during this period. Exploring one’s dreams and fantasies may be used as a way to avoid confronting life’s crueler moments.

Moon Sextile or Trine Pluto
Passions are likely to run high during this aspect. Exploring the world’s mysteries may be a very attractive pursuit at this time.

Mercury In Aries
Mercury in Aries is an influence that does not favor diplomacy. Many will be far more outspoken than usual. Dissension will be prevalent. Traditional approaches to handling challenges are likely to be replaced by new, more affective strategies. The need to be on the cutting edge of things will be strong.

Mercury Conjunct Mars
Debates and analytical thinking are likely. The candid words of some may be so frank that they may be seen as offensive to those on the receiving end.

Mercury Conjunct Jupiter
Seeking the “essence” of things may become a preoccupation. The need and ability to share ideas is strong.

Mercury Opposition or Square Saturn
This aspect provides a favorable window for tackling complex intellectual problems.

Venus In Pisces
Feelings are likely to run very deep. One may find themselves swelled with compassion that the need to help others becomes a major motivator. Creativity should be very strong and could lead to the development of exceptional innovations in the future.

Mars In Aries
Action is the keyword at this time. Those who act quickly and decisively should be favored. Self-sufficiency and the ability to act alone are valuable assets. Many will do well by focusing on short term goals.

Mars Conjunct Jupiter
Success in all arenas is possible. Energy levels and optimism should be relatively high.

Mars Opposition or Square Saturn
This aspect favors launching projects and starting relationships that one intends to commit to for the long term. Substantial progress in ongoing projects is likely as well.

Mars Conjunct Uranus
The need for personal freedom may be very strong. Many will show a pronounced lack of patience. Look internally for inspiration and motivation.

Mars Opposition or Square Pluto
This aspect favors those who put the full force of their will into reaching their goals. During this time it would be wise not to share one’s plans and ideas with a broad audience.

Jupiter In Aries
Self-reliance and optimism are favored at this time. Those who enjoy challenges and competition are favored. Adopting a never surrender attitude is a key component to attaining success.

Jupiter Opposition or Square Saturn
This aspect tends to muddle the distinction between what is real and what one wishes to be real. Setbacks can be experienced due to this nebulous vision of reality.

Saturn In Libra
Intimacy may be more of a chore than a pleasure. Some will find their progress towards strengthening intimate bonds and attaining goals muted by feelings of inadequacy.

Saturn Opposition or Square Pluto
This aspect may make it difficult to commit one’s self to anything beyond the moment at hand. However, those who do take on new goals will put the full force of their nature into achieving them.

Uranus In Aries
The astrological influence of Uranus is measured in increments of 7 years. What this means is that the effects of Uranus influence an entire generation. Day to day the Uranian influence may be imperceptible, but when the period is viewed as a whole the impact of Uranus is likely to be strikingly apparent.

Iconoclasm, independence and self-sufficiency are likely to be major themes during this period. Traditional values will be challenged. Those with a pioneering spirit will flourish.

Uranus Square Pluto
A mental restlessness and the need for complete personal freedom are possible influences of this aspect. In some the need for total autonomy may be so strong that they will challenge any attempt to subdue their independence.

Neptune In Pisces
Because Neptune takes approximately 14 years to move across Pisces its day to day influence may be imperceptible, but when the period is viewed as a whole the impact of Neptune in Pisces is likely to be strikingly apparent.

Gentleness, creativity, and the pursuit of spiritual truth are strong influences at this time. Many may find mysticism and unorthodox religions very attractive.

Pluto In Capricorn
Because Pluto takes approximately 15 years to move across Capricorn its day to day influence may be imperceptible, but when the period is viewed as a whole the impact of Pluto in Capricorn is likely to be strikingly apparent.

Strong economic gains can be made during this period. Pluto in Capricorn favors those who are able to make logical decisions and devise pragmatic solutions to the challenges before them.

Daily Horoscopes for April 14th

General Daily Horoscope

Our perceptual filters kick in as the Moon shifts into discerning Virgo at 2:40 am EDT. Ironically, just minutes later the Moon opposes nebulous Neptune in dreamy Pisces, heightening the differences between fact and fancy. Ultimately, we are more apt to respond with emotional clarity today because the Moon forms a harmonious midday trine to perceptive Pluto. Meanwhile, trickster Mercury’s retrograde continues to stir up delays if we’re too pushy.

Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

It doesn’t matter that you’re eager to take a risk and make something outrageous happen today; you probably won’t get your crazy plans off the ground. Unfulfilled promises could restrain your behavior until you finish your current obligations. But don’t let frustration get the upper hand, because having an emotional meltdown now will not add anything desirable to the quality of your life. Overcome your impatience and wait for a better moment to start something new.

Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

Although you claim that you can work within the current limitations being placed on you, you cannot help but fantasize about your favorite escape. You understand that rebellious behavior won’t necessarily bring the results you want, but you don’t seem to have the control you need to keep things stable. Even if you want to blast your way out of the rut you are in, common sense should win out for now.

Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

You must attend to personal matters today, even if you are simultaneously being pulled toward more public obligations. At first, it may seem as if your job will offer you some respite from your domestic responsibilities, but you would be smart to realize that you won’t be able to escape from your family duties for too long. Don’t try to outsmart your workmates by pretending to do your job. Be honest about your situation while sustaining your work pace the best you can.

Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

You might become angry if someone at work pushes you too hard today. Your superiors may have inflated expectations, yet you know that there’s only so much that you can handle now. Unfortunately, trouble arises if you don’t establish clear limits. There’s no need to complain about anything that is beyond your control, because that just makes the situation worse. It helps to be specific and let others know exactly what you can and cannot do before things get out of hand.

Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

You could run into an unexpected out-of-pocket expense today that reminds you of the instability of your current financial situation. However, it doesn’t make sense to get discouraged now, even if you don’t see how you’re going to balance your incoming funds with your outgoing cash. Although a longer-term solution may take conscious effort, the immediate problem is temporary and should ease on its own in a couple of days.

Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

You may feel as if you’re being emotionally bounced around today, even with the Moon back in your practical Earth sign to help you focus your attention on what is most useful. But your day probably won’t unfold according to your plans. Instead, you need to change your agenda several times to accommodate the shifting tides, which are beyond your control. Let go of your personal expectations so that you can transform a challenging day into one that’s filled with pleasant surprises.

Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

Your friends and associates may not realize that you’re having a tough time today because you’re not telling anyone about your concerns. Ironically, your doubts could be greatly eased by the simple act of sharing them. Your fear of being criticized might be your biggest obstacle to opening up. But remaining silent and losing yourself in endless analysis won’t lead to a logical resolution. You’re better off by just blurting out the truth now. Although you may surprise someone with your radical perspective, an honest discussion should relieve the tension.

Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

There is so much happening today that you may not have time to make a sensible plan. Figuring things out on the fly will probably get you through the day unless someone questions your integrity, prompting you to defend yourself. Just remember that open conflict isn’t a useful course of action; you would be smarter now to change your tactics and be less impulsive. Ultimately, you should be able to avoid an unnecessary argument by focusing on your goals and not on what anyone else says.

Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

Although you’re still interested in setting your work aside in favor of another enjoyable diversion, playtime is harder to justify today. Your professional responsibilities may be so demanding now that you just cannot get away with your planned escape. You might feel frustrated, but don’t worry; the pressure won’t last. Hunker down and do what’s expected of you so you can feel free enough to relax later on.

Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

Your hard work might not pay off right away, but don’t let that stop you from being extra conscientious about completing your job. It’s not that others won’t appreciate your contribution; it’s just that they are so busy today that they may not stop to acknowledge you. Don’t lose your focus worrying about being noticed. If you’re patient, your just rewards will arrive soon enough.

Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

Extra stress may come from financial institutions, investments or partnerships today, and there might not be an obvious way to avoid it. However, don’t put off any banking business that should be handled; starting sooner than later can make a big difference. Money management may not be a lot of fun, but handling complicated business affairs now can increase your sense of security and will help you feel more at ease.

Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

Interactions with someone who can exert control over your life may not go as smoothly as you hoped. You would be a lot more willing to acknowledge another person’s authority if he or she actually deserves your respect. But it’s challenging to acquiesce to anyone who assumes power without earning it. Don’t be afraid to stand up for your convictions. You will only have to face the same issue again if you back down now for the sake of convenience.

General Daily Horoscopes for 4/13

General Daily Horoscope

It’s difficult to escape the possible complications that stem from Mercury’s continuing retrograde phase which lasts until April 23. However, message mix-ups and schedule snafus are more likely if we’re overextended. Unfortunately, five planets, including Mercury, are in impulsive Aries, encouraging us to take on too much. Thankfully, an expressive Leo Moon harmoniously trines three of these planets, enabling us to accomplish more than we expect.

Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

It feels as if you’re on an emotional seesaw because you have been up and down so often recently that it’s difficult to see what’s happening from a wider perspective. But your outlook is sunny and upbeat, even if there’s nothing special happening today. Make use of your positive attitude now by jumping in and tackling problems while they don’t seem so overwhelming.

Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

You really don’t have to show off by demonstrating how together you are today, for the very act of drawing attention to your security exposes your lack of it. While it’s possible that your self-confidence has been vacillating lately, it’s more important now to do something that makes you feel good, instead of trying to gain approval from others. Concentrate your attention on your rich inner world instead of placing undue significance on outside influences.

Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

You should take extra precautions today because your life may be a whirlwind of activity. Although you typically like thrills and surprises, you could be caught off guard if you lack enough confidence now. Don’t be distracted by every interesting thing that goes flying by. Maintain a soft focus, instead, since this allows you to stay balanced while you’re still in motion.

Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

It’s stressful today trying to balance your time between work demands and domestic matters. But this current dilemma brings up a deeper issue about your fears of not being able to do it all. Although you might slide by now if you demonstrate how serious you are about doing a good job at home and on the job, this won’t be helpful in the long run. The ultimate solution may require you to face your insecurities by talking about them with someone you trust.

Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

The Moon’s current visit to your sign is emotionally intense, as your moods swing wildly like a pendulum out of control. However, you can continue to make steady progress by observing your feelings without necessarily saying anything about them at all. It isn’t always easy to let the wisdom of your body react naturally, without an audience. Keep your feelings to yourself until things settle down in a day or two.

Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

It may seem as if others are hiding important information from you, but you don’t know what it is so there isn’t any simple way to investigate without appearing to be paranoid. However, the more you ignore your current uneasiness, the louder it grows. Watch out, for you could end up creating a problem that was never there. Be totally upfront today; admitting that you are worried can help lessen your insecurities right away.

Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

Your interest in creating a relationship with a workmate may be piqued by a surprising conversation today. This probably isn’t just a passing fancy; it’s more likely the seed of an important journey ahead. In the meantime, plan something special for yourself that’s not about work or about taking care of someone else. Think bigger than usual and act boldly. Taking a risk can prove to be more fun than you ever imagined.

Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

Managing details at work is a wise thing to do now that the Moon is in your 10th House of Career. Working quietly behind the scenes often has its benefits, yet today you actually need to feel appreciated. Unfortunately, trying to win approval from your superiors could end up being a waste of your valuable time. Your safest path to being noticed is simply doing your job to the best of your ability.

Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

You don’t need to withhold your enthusiasm today because your confidence will have a positive effect on your co-workers. At first, they might think that you’re filled with hot air. But you’re not promising more than you can deliver and your peers will become true believers when they see what you can do. Remember, your ultimate talent isn’t in telling others what to do; it’s the gift of joyfully leading by example.

Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

You may feel very close to someone special today without being physical at all — intimacy comes in many flavors. Now, with the Moon illuminating your 8th House of Deep Sharing, consider how to enhance an interaction with a friend or family member by opening your heart. Simply expressing your fears with someone you trust will create a doorway to a more meaningful relationship.

Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

The self-expressive Leo Moon is visiting your 7th House of Partners today, cajoling you to reveal yourself through acts of generosity. But you still need to set clear boundaries by defining your limits or your magnanimous behavior could pull you overboard. Remember, you grow less believable when you overstate your case, so be quiet once you’ve made your point.

Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

It’s helpful to be able to count on something real today. Thankfully, the Moon’s visit to your 6th House of Habits encourages you to lean on your familiar routine as a strong foundation. Regardless of how spaced-out or confused you might be feeling, it’s crucial to go through the motions of whatever you do on a daily basis. However, this is not about playing your part mechanically or detaching yourself from your emotions; it’s about reestablishing the meaning in your everyday life, instead.

General Daily Horoscopes for 4/12

General Daily Horoscope

We think we can handle whatever reality tosses our way today. We might even be eager for what comes next with action-hero Mars running through his own sign Aries. Additionally, the Moon slipped into heartfelt Leo last night at 11:37 pm EDT and is now warming our desires and amplifying the intensity indicated by the magical quintile between romantic Venus and passionate Pluto. Our willingness to go deep should reap big emotional rewards now.

Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

It’s easy for you to get a lot done today because the Moon in your 5th House of Self-Expression harmonizes with your key planet Mars. You may be tempted to set aside work for a while in order to pursue pleasure, but it’s probably not a good idea to trade your promises for immediate gratification. Don’t try to shift the blame for your dilemma to anyone else. Just consider the consequences and do whatever makes the most sense in the long run.

Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

Although you may not be able to avoid the weight of responsibility today, you are likely to be more concerned now with expressing your feelings than you are with doing your current job. Your romantic heart is in direct conflict with your practical head, distracting you from accomplishing the work at hand. Even if you feel driven, there’s no need to take action right away. Allow your emotional stress to reach its crescendo and then subside before swinging into action.

Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

Your workmates or friends can turn this into quite a busy day, and that’s just how you like it. You are in top form and are able to show off your charm and wit as you flit from one activity to another. But strong desires are brewing just under the surface now, so don’t bother wasting your energy on trivial matters. Keep something in reserve for when you will need it over the next few days.

Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

Normally, you can be so sensitive to other people’s emotions that it’s often tough for you to take action. However, you’re more likely now to respond immediately to a difficult situation at work than to adopt a wait-and-see approach. But don’t overcompensate by being wildly impulsive; too much confidence leads to recklessness, which might create new problems faster than you can solve the old ones.

Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

You appear to be an open book today because the demonstrative Leo Moon is lighting up your 1st House of Personality. Although others may not recognize it, you’re in touch with deeply rooted emotions that haven’t reached the surface yet. Your thoughts carry even more weight because they are unspoken. After you share what’s on your mind, the energy dissipates quickly. In the meantime, observe how others judge you without necessarily saying more than you must.

Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

You don’t want everyone to know your likes and dislikes, encouraging you to keep your preferences quiet. You can quickly rationalize hiding your desires by expressing your unwillingness to hurt someone else’s feelings. However, it’s more complicated than that today, for remaining silent about what you want contributes to the problem, not the solution. Find a way to talk about what you’re feeling with enough sensitivity that you don’t offend anyone else.

Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

You want to show your affection for your friends and associates, but you prefer to do it in an emotionally detached manner. This becomes more difficult once you start sharing your feelings because others are likely to be more responsive now than you ever anticipated. You will probably need to confront your own ambiguity, especially if someone reacts with great intensity. Although you’re resistant at first, you’ll feel better once everything is out in the open.

Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

You could surprise yourself today with the speed of your reaction to an event that is outside of your control. You say that you want to go with the flow, yet still have a hard time being flexible enough now with the Moon in fixed sign Leo. Surprisingly, most things should turn out okay if you are willing to step into this unknown territory, face the current issues one at a time and stay open to altering your overall course of action.

Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

You may be enthralled by meeting your match as someone with lots of big ideas talks your head off today. You might wish that you could escape, but won’t likely try very hard. No matter what you do, ungrounded philosophical conversations seem to follow you wherever you go. Thankfully, you can learn something very valuable from your interactions with others. Even if you feel overwhelmed with too many details, new information can widen your horizons in a way that you truly enjoy.

Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

Nothing is simple now; although you want to stick to the agenda today, you don’t necessarily feel like following all the meandering ins and outs of a complex conversation. Uncharacteristically, you might prefer to jump around from topic to topic, or perhaps, you just delve within your daydreams, where no one else can find you. Don’t judge others too harshly now. Remember, the tables are turned and this time you may be the one who’s seeking the fun and resisting the work.

Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

Although you appear to be extremely flexible today, chances are good that your mind is made up and facts won’t likely be a catalyst for change. Unfortunately, this rigidity can get you into deep trouble now. You gain nothing by letting yourself be governed by suppressed fears. Talking about your current apprehension with a close friend or partner is the smartest way to dissipate the negative energy before it creates real problems.

Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

You want to impress everyone with how hard you work today, but you could struggle as you try to walk your talk. Unfortunately, your immediate needs may be in direct conflict with your distant goals, making it tough to know what to do next. This is a great time to quiet your mind and listen to your

Daily Horoscopes for April 11th

General Daily Horoscope

Today’s hesitant Cancer Moon increases our emotional insecurity as it forms conflicting aspects with three planets in impulsive Aries. Meanwhile, Aries’ key planet Mars adds a sense of urgency to our worries because it dynamically squares intense Pluto. We may not know when to stop talking since loquacious Mercury conjuncts exaggerating Jupiter. Being open to a new course of action might help us resolve a disagreement and avoid a major battle.

Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

You don’t have to prove yourself to anyone today, though you may be concerned about a critic at work. You are ready to demonstrate your competence anyhow as combative Mars picks a fight with domineering Pluto. Passions are blown out of proportion when you meet powerful resistance. Even if it seems like someone is purposefully blocking your way, it’s smarter to work with the energy instead of struggling to overpower it. Don’t succumb to fear; you can reach your destination by following the high road.

Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

It’s challenging to manage your negativity today, but it should get easier as you gain awareness about what’s really happening. A minor run-in with someone whose opinions are different from yours can stir unconscious memories. If your feelings aren’t acknowledged, a minute molehill can turn into a volatile volcano. There’s no need to let the pressure build to a breaking point. Avoid losing your temper by gently sharing what’s on your mind without blaming anyone else.

Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

You won’t be happy today if your friends simply assume that you will just go along with everything they want to do. You may feel that they are being pushy and you don’t appreciate it. Even if you don’t want to make a big deal about what’s happening, it may reach a point where you have no choice but to respond. Do your best to move through this uncomfortable situation by talking about your own fears, instead of attacking anyone else’s behavior.

Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

After attempting to disappear into the shadows, you realize that something has to happen now and it’s up to you. Although you don’t necessarily want to take charge, no one else may be capable of stepping up to the plate. Being the leader isn’t the issue, but your passive-aggressive behavior could make matters worse. Remember, if you have a problem with someone’s performance, saying it out loud can prevent your anger from hardening into resentment.

Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

You like playing the part of the good guy and are happy to focus your intentions on the best possible outcome. You may truly believe that this is the most intelligent strategy, but someone might think you are avoiding the facts. Ironically, you both could be right. However, if either of you attempts to prove your superiority, everyone will end up as a loser. Concentrate on creating common ground instead of tearing each other apart.

Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

A playful conversation may turn into a rather serious argument today. What upsets you most is someone acting like a know-it-all, bending reality for an apparently selfish purpose. You don’t have much tolerance for anyone who spouts facts that are blatantly untrue. Unfortunately, a fight to the finish could do more harm than good. It may be wiser to wait until everyone’s emotions have settled down before continuing the discussion.

Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

Everywhere you go today, people seem to be confrontational and you don’t like it. You might be tempted to place blame on everyone else, knowing full well that your intentions are good, no matter what. Unfortunately, circumstances may be more complicated than you realize, because your suppressed anger could be coming back at you in a projected form. Accept total responsibility for your own feelings, even the negative ones. This simple act of courage may be sufficient to begin calming the disruptive energy.

Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

If you haven’t been following your exercise regimen, today’s a good day to reinitiate it as your planetary rulers, muscleman Mars and formidable Pluto, cross paths to provoke action. Although you could feel deeply rooted emotions bubbling upward into your awareness, the edge of intensity can be softened through intense physical exertion. Channeling your energy positively by working out at the gym or dancing all night long can help to moderate your extreme point of view.

Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

This may be a back-to-work day, but you still want to have your share of fun. Unfortunately, previous obligations will force you to reconsider your plans. You may not be very happy when you realize that a social event must go on without your attendance. Although you may be tempted, blaming others is not a sensible strategy to get what you want. This situation is a test of your maturity, so accept the current circumstances and rise to the challenge.

Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

If you lose your temper today it will become harder to get what you want. Unfortunately, you have been waiting for satisfaction and you have run out of patience now. Nevertheless, an explosive emotional outbreak will only turn your allies against you when you need them the most. Being honest and saying what you’re thinking may be the right thing to do, yet compassionate behavior conveys your message more kindly.

Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

You may be too busy to stop and process your feelings today. Unfortunately, this can lead you down a difficult path as unexpressed emotions simmer beneath your awareness, turning a healthy reaction sour. Negative thoughts may be quietly lurking in the shadows, so take whatever time is needed to talk about your current frustrations. You might find yourself in the middle of a serious conflict if you don’t adopt a proactive approach first.

Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

You are often quite comfortable when feeling your way through a difficult situation without a rational anchor. However, today you might stubbornly choose to resist all forms of emotional engagement. Intuitively, you realize that there are struggles ahead and that it will be easier to avoid them than to confront the underlying issues. Unfortunately, there’s no quick and easy way to sidestep the truth. Being honest now can be the key to receiving the support you want.

Daily Horoscopes for April 10

General Daily Horoscope

The emotionally receptive Moon in watery Cancer conflicts with energetically assertive Mars in fiery Aries today, making it tough to be kind to others if our actions don’t also further our individual goals. We want to feel connected to the supportive matrix of our family, yet we may react too quickly out of fear when the Moon opposes powerful Pluto and squares authoritative Saturn. However, we can all benefit from learning a bit about patience.

Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

Don’t mistakenly think that you cannot be strong and capable if you are also vulnerable enough to feel someone else’s pain. You may incorrectly believe that you have to find a solution right away, while actually avoiding the problem, itself. An alternate approach, however, is to open your heart and experience the dilemma without trying to fix it. Today, the smartest thing you can do is to listen closely and acknowledge another person’s feelings.

Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

A close friend might bug you so much today that it feels as if he or she is picking a fight with you. But don’t let a minor issue grow so important that it initiates an unnecessary argument and morphs into the turning point of your day. If you can successfully sidestep a confrontation now, you should be able to reap the fruits of your restraint when they ripen.

Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

It’s tricky for you to balance a very basic need for mental stimulation with today’s intense desire to just chill out. It’s not that your interest to be with others disappears now; it’s simply that you don’t want as many distractions as usual. If you are feeling overextended in any way, take time to recharge your batteries so you are up to the challenges of tomorrow.

Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

It’s as if an old friend has come for a visit now that the Moon has returned to your sign. She reminds you of the raw power of your emotions, yet also how isolated you can feel when you don’t express them. It may be difficult to communicate your experiences today, for your responsibilities may prevent you from sinking into a more emotional zone. Remember, you can remain silent while still actively staying in touch with your inner world.

Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

You may feel hurt by someone you like today, making it hard to be honest. It’s difficult to respond to what’s happening, for you really don’t want to show your weakness. Nevertheless, your vulnerability can indicate your true strength as it takes extra courage now to act on your gut instincts, even if they seem to be out of step with the circumstances of your life.

Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

Being responsive today to someone you work with can prove to be an enriching experience, but you’ll need to get over your insecurity about the possibility of being rejected. Sharing your feelings with your friends and associates can set you up for disappointment if others don’t react as expected. Nevertheless, you’ll never know what might have happened if you don’t take the risk. Be willing to go to the edge without going over it.

Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

You might attempt to hide from the public eye today, yet you are needed by others in a way that could focus the attention directly on you. Oddly enough, it’s not that you want to remain unseen; it’s just that you feel awkward in the spotlight. Balance is one of your recurring issues; seek a comfortable place between being a star and remaining a complete unknown.

Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

You are able to see your distant goals quite clearly, but still may be at a temporary loss as to how you can safely reach your destination. Unfortunately, it seems as if there are no direct routes that lead to where you want to go now. Fortunately, you can draw on a very deep well of persistence. Your non-judgmental acceptance of those you love, combined with your willingness to wait for the right moment, will likely clear the way for your success.

Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

Although it’s always essential that you show up at work and do your job well, you are not completely satisfied with this option now. You want your creativity to overflow with passion. You hope to amaze others with what you can do. However, turning down the volume on your self-expression makes more sense today. It’s better to sustain your productivity throughout the day than to create a flash of excitement by pulling a rabbit out of a hat and then declaring that you’re done.

Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

You may be confronted with unclear messages now, with others saying one thing and doing another. Thankfully, you’re encouraged by the loving support you are receiving, yet it feels as if something still isn’t quite right. The unspoken judgment is that you’re not doing enough, even if you have no idea of what else you could do. Don’t let self-doubt creep into your life; motivate yourself by focusing on the positive feedback you are given today, instead.

Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

You are highly sensitive to what your closest friends want today, enabling you to take on tasks before they are even assigned to you. Unfortunately, you could also harbor resentment toward anyone who isn’t willing to give you straightforward direction. You might not mind the extra work, but feel frustrated about the lack of acknowledgment and appreciation. But, instead of keeping your feelings quiet, talk to someone who is involved before your unhappiness gets the best of you.

Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

You may feel more alive today, rejuvenated by the tidal Cancer Moon as she refreshes your pools of emotion. If you are trying to recover from a recent schedule overload, establish new boundaries while you still can. You won’t have to give up any power, nor must you defend your right to remain silent. Quietly basking in the delicious healing waters of your own compassion is sufficient for now.
