April Horoscopes

by Henry Seltzer

Cancer Horoscope (June 21 - July 22)
Cardinal Water. Your ruling planet is The Moon.

You are finding an opening where before none existed, Cancer. Information from your own deep center over the past few weeks has provided the key, leading to a revision of your stand on certain points and to a different and perhaps more inclusive way of seeing home, family and tribe. This month, your career and how you present yourself on the stage of public life become your focus. The foundation that has been reestablishing itself within you becomes the stepping stone to new awareness, presence and passion, and even to a larger concept of intimacy. True intimate connection encompasses yourself as well as others, and all the glorious and even the not so glorious parts of that Being that you find inside.

As the month begins, you are feeling a strong commitment to career and outer presentation and as well for communicating these intentions clearly and soberly to others around you. This is obviously good for productivity and for achieving your objectives and yet there is something else that motivates you. Although you are in some sense all about business right now there is a powerful undertow of mystical transformation that is operating around and through your focus on outer world achievement. This more subtle but equally potent energy for change urges you to see the bigger picture of your deep inner working and to include partnership with significant others into the arc of your own development. There are many rewards to be gained if you accept the issues that come up for you in this area of relationships and face them squarely. The First Quarter Moon of Thursday, April 2nd, is a powerful one for you, and takes you into some degree of tension in what you are attempting. At the same time, what is also brought forward is a broader perspective on life and values implied by your changing priorities. The Full Moon that follows a week later, taking place on Thursday, April 9th, represents a culmination of some part of your current struggle, and presents you with much food for thought. Issues of self and other are likely to emerge. You are exploring deep patterns within you at this time, especially regarding the way you handle your relationship energy. A terrific first step toward progress lies in recognizing what you habitually create on the relationship scene, perhaps in an unconscious way. The Last Quarter Moon of Friday, April 17th, provides yet another crucial passage, when your relationship dynamic will again be on your mind, and when you will be enabled to examine both the gains and the losses of the previous three weeks. You will be well-placed to take advantage of the received insights. With the New Moon of Friday, April 24th, you make a fresh start on these issues and take another spiral turn up the mountain of your destiny. This is a great time for visioning new possibilities into being, a time when you are also able to transcend old patterns and reap the benefits of new ways of seeing your world. With the changing perspective that is brought about by the summation of the preceding weeks of careful attention, everything morphs in an instant.
