April Horoscopes

by Henry Seltzer

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

New horizons beckon, Leo. You are building a bridge to a different universe, and it involves new ways of seeing and of being, not so much of doing. Travel might well be involved but the emphasis is on the novelty of the perspective that is gained thereby. Even your day-to-day communication is more sober and serious and to the point, as you are called into greater conscious service to the surrounding collective. You are presented with not only a vision of the way things are and the way they could be, but of how you might be able to make the crucial difference. You have the lever that you need to move the world closer to your true heart's desire, now all you need is the place to stand.

As the month begins, you are visioning new realities that seem to overtake the tracks that you have been running in for a long, long, time. A feeling of unlimited possibility is balanced by an equally powerful feeling of self-limitation, but the eventual collaboration might be even more fruitful as a result. Due to the massive line-up of planetary energy in your 9th sector of higher mind activity, you are dwelling into new perspectives on yourself and your world. During this month also, you might well be engaged also in travel plans or on actually executing on them. The New Moon of Sunday, April 3rd, is the powerful moment when all of these themes come together. You are developing a new concept of where your career and professional life might be heading, and how this area of your life might change in response to changing conditions and evolving perspectives. There is a sense of being of true service to others and to the world around you that is becoming more concretely available to you as a valid mode of operation. This is in spite of fears that you are being even too self-sacrificing in providing for others around you instead of yourself. There is a way that your self-interest is served along with the needs of others when you participate whole-heartedly and not from feelings of guilt or an artificial sense of duty. The First Quarter Moon of Monday, April 11th, might serve to firm up some of these attitudes by stimulating your strong response to events that seem to counter your deepest intentions for yourself. You are making a stand for yourself at this time, and for what you truly believe, to the extent that you can state these without ambiguity. A strong dose of imagination, and of idealism, pervades your thought process at this time and it might take several weeks to really sort things out. The Full Moon a week later, taking place on Sunday, April 17th, might provide a time of relative calm and balance, and a mellowing of quandAries with your work life, as you reach a form of fulfillment with your desires. Over the next few days you will get more comfortable with where your career might be heading, although there are still likely to be a few surprises to contend with so that it pays to be light on your feet and not too stuck on any one point of view on the matters at hand. The Last Quarter Moon of Easter Sunday, April 24th, might be a good time to reflect on where the arc of development of these last three weeks has taken you and how far you still might need to go. Mercury has just changed into direct rather than retrograde motion this same weekend, so that it will be easier to make definite decisions after a couple more weeks have past.
