April Horoscopes

by Henry Seltzer

Gemini Horoscope (May 21 - June 20)
Mutable Air. Your ruling planet is Mercury.

This is an important month of transition for you, Gemini. A thoughtful period of philosophical wonderment, just passed, opens up in the present monthly cycle into greater involvement with social goals and future plans. You sometimes get what you wish for in this life, and right now is one of them. This is a terrific month for you to visualize success in all manner of things. Be careful what you wish for over the first half of April because your thoughts are extremely powerful. It helps to remember that the basis for all that you say and do, and are, comes from a deeper place than you are readily able to articulate.

As the month begins, you are riding the wave of energy from the New Moon toward the end of last month in your sector of wishes and hopes and societal connection. This New Moon energy comes to the group orientation area of your chart, and with your ruler Mercury there as well, together with your natural affinity for connection, you are likely to be networking like mad this first week of April. This is also an excellent time to look ahead and to feel your way forward into a future you can not only live with but for. There is an inner component to your visioning at this time that you just cannot ignore. You are in a position to really see your ships coming in, as long as you realize that what counts for success for you right now must involve a powerful spiritual component as well aw triumph on the material plane. The First Quarter Moon of Thursday, April 2nd, represents the crucial moment of this period, and a time when you will feel the impulse for dramatic change and as well the sense of limitation that tells you what is concretely possible in the here and now of the mundane world. You are both energized and frustratingly held back at this juncture, but the tension is creative and fuel for the next wave of progress. At the time of the Full Moon one week further on, taking place on Thursday, April 9th, there is a culmination of sorts in the arc of development that has been in process since the time of the New Moon two weeks prior. This is an amazing period when you will feel enthusiastic perspective shifts coming about and when expansive travel plans of either the actual or the armchair variety could be in the works as well. This is also a time for more precisely tuning in to the mystical roots of your being. This inner exploration might come to preoccupy you more and more, although you are still connected socially to the outer world. You are likely to stay firmly grounded in home and family concerns all the while. By the time of the April 24th New Moon you are even more fully invested in the dark spaces within you. There is a known and surface sense of self which is more familiar, and yet which is entirely based on the vast underground chambers of the psyche that poets dream about and that Jung attempted to traverse, and these are the deep waters that you are navigating now with an important part of yourself.
