Horoscopes for April 4-10

By Bob Mulligan

From April 4^th through the 10^th luck and optimism carry us forward with strong beliefs that we can accomplish whatever we set our mind towards. The immediacy of our goals and the raw enthusiasm of the moment make for lots of courageous steps taken one after the other without much forethought.

4^th – Monday – Neptune enters Pisces, Mercury Contra-parallel Neptune, Sun Semi-square Neptune – Be aware of your dreams; now is the time to allow your higher vision of life to capture your attention.  Now is the time to see how your life can improve and what the world can be at its best.

5^th – Tuesday – Take care of important people and make sure that you have handled all of your really important responsibilities.  Be certain that you keep the things moving that are most important in your life.  Evaluate your daily program and make sure your habits match your values.

6^th – Wednesday – Sun Conjunct Jupiter – Seize the golden opportunities as they emerge in front of you.  What you really want is closer at hand than you might think.  The god of luck favors those who are swift to act now.

7^th – Thursday – You can’t please everyone; this doesn’t mean you can’t please anyone. Have decent boundaries with co-workers and friends.  There is a general nervousness today and you are prone to change your mind; so are other people; be prepared for inconsistencies, irregularities, and interruptions.

8^th – Friday – Sun Contra-parallel Venus – You will accomplish more today if you remain in a receptive mood; listen to the people around you and be willing to include others, even if you must ultimately go your own way.

9^th – Saturday – Pluto turns Retrograde, Sun Conjunct Mercury – Tension builds then releases as enthusiasm for many different projects bubbles over.  Now is a time for action and it is hard to get people to listen to anything that does not translate into an immediate activity.

10^th – Sunday – Venus Semi-sextile Jupiter – Some anxiety can have everyone in a ‘hand wringing” mood, but this is just a signal from the cosmos that it is time to pay real attention to partners.  Relationships need care and nourishment now.
