April Horoscopes

by Henry Seltzer

Aries Horoscope (March 21 - April 19)
Cardinal Fire. Your ruling planet is Mars.

This is a potent time for you, Aries, especially if you were born in March or have an early Aries Ascendant. Those born in April will feel these effects as well but not quite so powerfully. Your life in is important flux right now and you are being shown the doorway to an entirely different form of existence. Your ideals are being tested and your workplace is changing mightily but it is only fear that holds you back from achieving excellence, although it can't just be in the same old rut anymore. Relationships with significant others in your life are one key to your transcendence throughout this period and self-investigation is another. Pay close attention to every thing that happens to you at this time and you will discover diamonds.

As the month begins, you are feeling the need for commitment to the yearnings of your higher self. The outer world that can be seen surrounds you but is never entirely representative of all that you are. You are in a paradoxical position right now in which you are on the one hand quite social and out there in the world of appearances and forms, while on the other you are coming from a deeper place inside yourself that doesn't care at all about the world of forms. You are acknowledging this unseen world inside you with every act of yours right now, especially during the first few days of April. The First Quarter Moon of April 2nd is a potent crux of this initial period. You might encounter a compelling drive to concretize the mystical part of your life with word and deed. What is going on for you in terms of outer world success is dramatically appealing also, but not fully engaging without the spiritual component that makes it all worthwhile. You see the drawbacks right now as well as the positive side of what you are attempting, and it may be that you will be forced to make some necessary course corrections before the first weekend of the month draws to a close. The Full Moon of the following week, taking place on Thursday, April 9th, is even more powerful for you in this regard. This is a time when you are making a strong stand for yourself no matter what. It is also a time when equally you are being guided very definitely to include Spirit in your calculations. This is also very magical in terms of partnership in your life, which is brought to the fore at this juncture, as your time of metamorphosis continues. The magnitude of the changes being thrust upon you right now can only be surmounted when you proceed with faith in the benevolence of the universe to support you. The Last Quarter Moon of Friday, April 17th, represent a time of transition when many realizations are possible. The New Moon of Friday, April 24th, that kicks off the final weekend of the month also has a lot to tell you. You are learning how the relationships in your life help you to further refine your own arc of development. This can be either a time of further struggles to realign yourself to the necessity of your changes or else a positive, soothing time of acceptance depending on how easily you can let go of that which no longer serves you.
