This week’s astrology forecast:

 April 20th – 26th        

Message for the week:

Another high energy, generally upbeat and forward moving week with four planets tightly packed in the first 10 degrees of Aries—step it up and go! The big news in the heavens this week is Uranus moving into Gemini for the next 7 years. Uranus is the planet of radical change and freedom and has not been comfortable in Taurus, the sign that most resists change, for the last seven years.

Picture Uranus as a high flying, freedom loving bird like an eagle. Picture Tauus as a luxurious, well-appointed house. Uranus has been trapped in that house for the last seven years and this week, the window gets opened and the eagle is free to soar. Uranus is at home in Gemini, an Air sign, and in harmony with the other outer planets, Neptune and Pluto. This will certainly advance communication technology and the way we learn—like the rapid growth of AI and its influence on our lives.

In our personal lives, this can enhance super learning—particularly with anything you are fascinated by or is outside of the box of normal every day thinking.

Monday: The mind is lit up today with Mercury conjunct Saturn and Mars—essentially a triple conjunction. This is a day to cut through the crap, fantasies, “maybe’s, should be’s and could be’s, and act with focused attention (Saturn) and drive (Mars) on what you are initiating in your life. The Moon in mentally stimulating Gemini with no aspects will aid in communications and gathering of information you need.

Tuesday: You may start the day a little scattered with the Moon in variety-seeking Gemini, providing plenty of options but no clear direction. Focus comes by mid-morning when the Moon moves into Cancer sextile to the Sun, bringing awareness of your personal needs and how to tend to them. You may feel a little foggy and spacey this afternoon when the Moon is square to daydreamy Neptune, maybe a quick nap or short walk to clear your head. The Moon does square Saturn very late tonight—good for shutting it down and getting some sleep.

Wednesday: This should be a yummy day in all regards, with the Moon in nurturing Cancer conjunct abundant Jupiter. Foodies will love this day—great for picnics, barbeques, a walk on the beach, gathering food or planting seeds in your garden. Fertile is the word for the day—let it grow!

Thursday: Venus is conjunct Uranus today before moving into Gemini tonight—a good day to shake things up and do something out of the ordinary. The Moon is in caring Cancer sextile the Venus/Uranus conjunction this morning, enhancing relationships. The Moon moves into fun-loving Leo midday trine to inspiring Neptune, making for a great afternoon. Don’t let stubbornness and staunch resistance mar the fun this evening when the Moon makes challenging aspects to the Sun and. Pluto.

Friday: You will want to get fired up to engage this high-powered, fun, and smooth day with the Moon in “go for the gold” Leo in a flowing trine to the Saturn/Mars/Mercury conjunction in Aries. A good day to put your best self out there for the world to see and let your light shine.

Saturday: Best to avoid power conflicts and manipulative people to enjoy another playful day with the Sun square to power-tripping Pluto and the Moon in Leo. The Moon moves into analytical Virgo this evening in a square to the Venus/Uranus conjunction in Gemini—avoid being critical of your wild and crazy friends—they make your life more interesting. Uranus enters Gemini this evening, liberating the mind to explore whatever is fascinating.

Sunday: Gentle, romantic vibes are in the air today with Venus in a stimulating sextile to Neptune—a good day for a quiet walk with your sweetie. The Moon is in “keep it simple” Virgo in a supportive trine to the Sun, while Mercury is square to “more, more, more” Jupiter, activating bigger and bolder ideas—which would only complicate things. The message for the day is to tame your restless mind and sink into the enjoyable flow.

May the stars be with you!
