April Horoscopes

by Henry Seltzer

Scorpio Horoscope (October 23 - November 21)
Fixed Water. Your ruling planets are Mars and Pluto.

It's big adventure and big fun for you right now Scorpio, with a sense of responsibility thrown in. A brave new beginning to the spring is unfolding just as it should. You are engaged in discovering what your most fundamental plan for yourself has to offer in this season of change, and everyone is included. This is a recipe for success in the real world as well as in imaginal realms of your own choosing. All these energies funnel into the mix that swirls around you in something like harmony. Balance is the key. With luck you can conduct a symphony of dedication that takes inner as well as outer considerations into account.

As the month begins, you are exploring the many ways that there are to be you. There has been an ongoing adventure in consciousness taking place for you ever since the potent New Moon of March 15, and this continues into the present month and flavors your current process as subtext. The first two weeks of April seem to be about relating with all kinds of partners, both business and personal. This period is punctuated by the Last Quarter Moon of Tuesday, April 6th, which represents a powerful time when you are getting clearer on relationships in your life and how you are present in the world both with them and without them. It is your communicative outreach that keeps you connected to your circle of acquaintance. This might also be a time when you tune in to writing goals that you have had for some time now. During this entire year the area of writing and communicating has been changing for you in subtle ways. With the New Moon of the following week, taking place on Wednesday, April 14th, you are filled with fresh energy for your process. There is a way of being and working in the world that is uniquely yours, so that you are getting a better grip on this throughout this monthly cycle. The energy of this mid-month time might take you further down this path of discovery. The last two weeks of the month that this New Moon ushers in are also the time of the Mercury retrograde period which is one of research and reflection rather than of breaking new ground. This lasts for about five weeks, until nearly the end of May, when you take into consideration the period of the retrograde shadow. Since Mercury is retrograding through your relationship sector for this entire period, you might spend this time in rethinking and redefining some aspect of your partnership dynamic,. It is also a good fit for this timeframe to be journaling or communicating to close friends regarding the nuances of your situation. The First Quarter Moon of Wednesday, April 21st, that punctuates this period is an excellent time for looking more deeply into all these issues. With the advent of this configuration, there is a fundamental polarity in your nature that you will likely expose to the light of day. Relationship with others comes into the picture as well. In all this it is important to keep your head up and your faith about you as you explore your possibilities. With the Full Moon in your sign of the following week, taking place on Wednesday, April 28th, you are coming to a more balanced understanding. This is one highlight of the Mercury retrograde period so that you are likely to be looking more deeply into both relationship issues and also your own developmental cycle apart from others.
