April Horoscopes

by Henry Seltzer

Leo Horoscope (July 23 - August 22)
Fixed Fire. Your ruling planet is The Sun.

This is a good month for tuning in to what really matters, Leo. This sense of mission inevitably involves others in your life as important components of your own journey of self-discovery. Through it all comes a vital realignment of perspective, as your philosophy runs to catch up with your outreach. You will begin to see another side of relationship with significant partners in your life as the month unwinds, and to feel a strong sense of oceanic involvement as well as the idea of the separation from goddess that seems true though painful and which reflects that which must also exist between individuals. Reconciling these paradoxical feelings is difficult and confusing, but well worth the investment in energy and time. Depth and spiritual growth have no simple genesis but arrive by mysterious routes.

As the month begins, you are embracing points of view other than your own, possibly engaging in travel or at least mentally placing yourself within new cultural perspectives. In addition to your predilection for adventuring by traveling to foreign lands you may embark on a voyage through your own inner landscape at this time, attempting to see how that process can enhance your sense of who you are at core, and how you can more fully align with your deeper spiritual values. A particular focus of transformational energy is the quest to follow your highest purpose for yourself. Partnership concerns and issues of intimacy are also extremely powerful for you right now, as they have been for the last several months. At the time of the First Quarter Moon, taking place on Thursday, April 2nd, all these issues may come to a head, especially the mystical side of what you are about with regard to the changes that you are going through. The Full Moon follows a week later, on Thursday, April 9th, and you might find yourself coming to some definite conclusions concerning the way you see the world around you and the relationships for you that lie within it. This configuration represents a powerful surge of optimism, especially regarding the significant partnerships in your life, and also brings out a powerful inner urge for communication and sharing. This is also still a period for getting your own act together as a primary priority. The Last Quarter Moon taking place a week later, on Friday, April 17th, will be a time of potential trial when perspectives alter and you might begin to see the forest instead of the trees. You are also coming to grips right now with the ways in which relationship with others serves your own spiritual evolution. The New Moon of Friday, April 24th, represents a fresh start for you in the affairs of the outer world. You are reaping the benefits of compassionate partnership at this time. This brings you closer to Spirit and to your own inner workings but leaves you potentially confused and out of touch with the consensus brand of reality that is also your current focus. The secret is integration of all your disparate parts, easier said than done but a worthy goal to keep in your mind's eye as you launch yourself into the next cycle.
