April Horoscopes

by Henry Seltzer

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

You are coming into a new season with new wings, Aries. There is a new relationship with partners, also with security and finance, that stems from your own deep center. The time for action has arrived with the springtime, but it is not superficial action that you crave right now, involving merely monetary motivation. You are still hesitating in your forward plunge and for good reason. Partnership continues to move you mightily, but again from the standpoint of a deeper calling that integrates all your diverse parts. You will succeed in this more complete sense only when you combine worldly endeavor with the mystical power that consistently underlies and supports the physical.

As the month begins, you are no doubt still feeling the pull of the Pisces New Moon from the middle of last month. This strong concentration of intuitive energy taking place as it did in your sector of dream imagination has spiced up your unconscious life just as your ruler Mars has reappeared in a forward-going mode of operation in a more extroverted part of your chart, giving you a taste of both outer and inner worlds. You are taking these fresh stirrings of your deeper understanding forward into the springtime and your birthday time of the year. These various currents of thought and feeling may come to a head early in the month, at the time of the Last Quarter Moon of Tuesday, April 6th. This marks a time when you are feeling a definite collision between what you are trying to accomplish in the world and the way that you proceed to do it. Partners come into the picture as mentors if you look at the situation in a positive way, and, if you don't, as burdens to the glory of your independent achievement, so that there are adjustments that continue to be made in this and other areas. A sense of wisdom is arising from your deeper centers and it helps to recognize this and remain watchful for its emergence. With the Aries New Moon of Wednesday, April 14th, you are feeling your oats and tending to start jumping ahead willy-nilly into action. The polarization of the times might however come up for you as for everyone else and bite you unawares. It helps to remain sensitive to the third possibility that somehow manages to center itself between the horns of the dilemma. The week of the First Quarter Moon, taking place on Wednesday, April 21st, is also likely to be somewhat stressful. For one thing, Mercury is now retrograde in your sector of resources and you might need to re-think current priorities perhaps revisioning grandiose schemes that have recently been floated- by you mostly - and which might need to be scaled back somewhat. It's a natural time to conserve financial energy and not such a good time for new contractual arrangements which are better made earlier in the month. Once the deal is in progress you can just coast through these last two weeks. With the Full Moon of the final week of April, taking place on Wednesday, April 28th, you are settling down into an entirely different sort of energy, one of contemplation and slugging away at any and all obstacles to growth. This is a terrific time for journaling and for getting your priorities straight, and also for hanging in with your vision that the road is always basically upward.
