The thrilling weekend finally comes to an end and a busy week is ahead so let’s see what stars have stored in for you in your weekly Astro prediction by the World renowned Astro writer Joanne Madeline Moore.
Horoscope (April 09, 2018 – April 15, 2018)
ARIES [March 21-April 20]
Mid-week looks rather stressful, as something (or someone) irritates you and tests your limited patience. So avoid the temptation to play pointless power games. Venus and Neptune encourage you to communicate in a much more diplomatic and compassionate fashion. On the weekend you’ll be given the opportunity to lead and/or influence others in some way. Don’t waste it. People are looking for you to come up with the goods so get cracking and don’t disappoint!
TAURUS [April 21-May 21]
With Venus (your patron planet) vamping through your sign (and an energy boost from Mars) you’ve got the power this week! Charm and confidence will take you places. Venus also makes a fantastic connection with Neptune. So love, romance, creativity, kindness and compassion are all on the radar, as you have fun and enjoy yourself to the max. Then Jupiter and Pluto boost love and friendship on the weekend, when you link up with pals from home or far away.
GEMINI [May 22-June 21]
Mercury continues reversing through your peer group and goal-setting zone. So friendships will be tested and dreams delayed. If you’re smart, you’ll learn to practice the gentle art of patience (which doesn’t come easily to gung-ho Geminis). Then on Sunday April 15, Mercury finally moves forwards and things will start to pick up. In the meantime your motto is from fellow Gemini, writer Ralph Waldo Emerson. “Adopt the pace of nature. Her secret is patience.”
CANCER [June 22-July 23]
Don’t be a lone Crab! Group projects and joint ventures are favoured as you spark ideas off each other and pool your talents to create something special. Jupiter and Pluto increase optimism and help you reform a rickety relationship that’s been experiencing problems. Setting positive new patterns of behaviour sees the union move to a deeper and more satisfying level. Being extra generous towards a child, teenager, parent or close friend brings benefits for everyone.
Being a bossy Lion – or a demanding Diva – will lead to a myriad of frustrations mid-week. In order for your personal and professional relationships to blossom, you need to give other people plenty of space and room to shine. On the weekend you’re keen to make connections with others, as Jupiter and Pluto highlight your family and work zones. So it’s a terrific time to initiate ideas and make waves within your circle of influence. Creative collaboration is the key.
VIRGO [Aug 24-Sep 23]
With Mercury still retrograde until Sunday April 15, steer clear of negative thinkers! Make sure the people around you are a powerful influence in positive ways. (Plus double-check all paperwork and financial matters.) On Saturday, Jupiter and Pluto encourage you to reach out and help others, both within your circle of family and friends and within your local neighbourhood. You’ll find the close community connections you foster now will prove beneficial in the future.
LIBRA [Sep 24-Oct 23]
Love is in the air as Venus, Mars and Neptune rev up your romantic nature. An ambitious idea could also boost your bank balance, as you commence a fresh chapter involving home, family or finances. Which could include redecorating, renovating, relocating or welcoming a new member to the family. Whatever you do, your motto for the moment is from Libran actress Naomi Watts. “You have to make peace with yourself. The key is to find the harmony in what you have.”
SCORPIO [Oct 24-Nov 22]
The Sun and Pluto clash on Wednesday. So resist the urge to be a frustrated control freak with others. Then (courtesy of Saturday’s super Jupiter/Pluto connection) you’ll be given the opportunity to lead and/or impress those around you. Jupiter also motivates you to be more adventurous with the way you present yourself or the personal projects you take on. Lady Luck is preparing to come knocking on your door. Just make sure you’re ready, willing and able to let her in!
SAGITTARIUS [Nov 23-Dec 21]
On Wednesday be careful you don’t upset a child, teenager or friend by making an insensitive comment. Saturday’s auspicious Jupiter/Pluto aspect encourages you to transform your life by broadening your horizons … physically, mentally and spiritually. It’s time to expand your circle of influence, and make positive changes (personally, within your neighbourhood and further afield). Stay alert so you can capitalise on lucky opportunities that come your way.
CAPRICORN [Dec 22-Jan 20]
Mars, Saturn and Pluto are all transiting through your sign, which amplifies your drive and ambition. But these powerful planets also rev up your ruthless side, which can alienate you from others. So try to balance steely determination at work with a deft diplomatic touch at home. Saturday’s lucky Jupiter/Pluto link brings a welcome reprieve as you charm family members, win professional friends and influence important people. A special dream could also come true.
AQUARIUS [Jan 21-Feb 19]
With communication planet Mercury still reversing through your internet zone (until Sunday April 15) be careful what you post on social media. On the weekend, prosperous Jupiter and strategic Pluto help you to prioritise your current commitments and plan your long-term goals for the future. If you devise a firm direction forward, then financial luck is waiting in the wings via a new job, client, bonus or promotion. Volunteer work could also be extremely rewarding.
PISCES [Feb 20-March 20]
Wednesday and Thursday nights are wonderful for a candlelit dinner when Venus, Mars and Neptune ratchet up the romance factor. And many creative Pisceans will burn the midnight oil, as inspiration strikes. On the weekend, your involvement with a group, club or organisation has others looking to you for an action plan. So use your networking skills to drum up support, and don’t be afraid to ask experts for help. International connections could be particularly beneficial.
