Gemini (May 21 – June 20)

In April, you will likely be thinking about your dreams for the future and be anxious to materialize them. This month is not the time to make an important initiation, but it is a good time to plan. Question all your assumptions, and through examination of them and gathering facts, you can set a solid path. You will encounter obstacles, and you will have to come up with ingenious answers to roadblocks you encounter before you can move forward. It would be tempting to wave off obstacles, but that would not be the right move. You have the kind of planetary energy that hints at big success, so stick to your program, and as you approach difficult questions, take each day one at a time.

This is the right time of 2017 to prioritize the goals and to decide what is most important to you. As you have matured, you may have changed your perspective about what really matters to you. April will be an ideal time to reflect, catch up, and to delete or add priorities. Retrograde planets will open your schedule, so your life won’t be as frenetic as it might be usually – you will be able to breathe. Your eleventh house of hopes and wishes was activated at the last new moon, March 27, so you may come up a clearer view of how you’d like your life to proceed.

Concurrent to this meditation will be the full moon, April 10, again energizing your social life – especially in terms of romance – but a relationship with a friend or a sweetheart may have become complicated. Jupiter will arrive arm-in-arm with the full moon, a beautiful aspect, but will be directly opposed by Uranus at 180 degrees, causing sudden, possibly nerve-jangling, news at this full moon. It’s an emotional time, so keep your schedule clear so you can address whatever comes up without feeling conflicted.

Venus will continue to retrograde in Aries and Pisces, a holdover from March 5, and will go direct April 15. Venus’ turn direct will help to stabilize and boost your love life, as Venus rules your fifth house of fun, love, and leisure. Relationship improvements will be slow – Venus will take until May 18 to ramp up to former strength – but on the plus side, the progress will be steady and noticeable.

At this full moon, April 10, you may be thinking about the sweetheart you are dating, a child, or a pregnancy, or about a friend. Or, you may be centered on a party or other activity you had been looking forward to attending. It looks like many friends would be there to see you, too. Although you may initially experience some reverse news at this full moon, it can in the end bring a happy culmination because active Mars will be in lovely angle to transformative Pluto. Mars and Pluto are both traveling in realistic earth signs, and at elegant angles, so to get the best from these planets, you need to be practical and clear eyed too, even if the full moon makes you initially feel very emotional and sentimental. Try to view much of this month as a novel where you are the protagonist. What will our hero do next?

Mercury will start to retrograde April 9 to finish May 3 in Pisces. Both Venus and Mercury orbit close to earth, so you feel the effects of both planets more when retrograde than you would if an outer planet were retrograde. Mercury is your ruling planet, so again, you will feel the slowdowns this planet can bring when out of phase. Find ways to benefit from the delays the occasional frustrations that come with Mercury retrograde.

When warrior Mars enters Gemini on April 21, the energy will change and brighten considerably. For the first time in a long time, you will be in full control. VIPs will pay attention to you, support you, and be impressed by the vibrant drive and passion you have for your goals. You will have to accommodate Mercury retrograde however, so you may have to reschedule social events when obligations to work and family suddenly come in the way. At work, the same trend will be at play – delays will proliferate. No matter, Mars will be in Gemini until June 4, and because Mercury will go direct on May 3, and Venus will be gaining strength next month, May will be your month to let rip and go for the gold.

The new moon April 26 will be in Taurus, lighting your house of meditation, reflection, and confidential talks. This new moon is excellent, so if you work in a subdued way, in private, and behind closed doors, you will be a wunderkind of productivity. If you have a book to write, an advertising campaign to create, a grant application to send in, or any other item on your list that requires your full attention, you’ll be amazed at how quickly you can polish off that major task, and with quality results. Friends will want to know your secret to such high productivity in April – the answer is that you have an angel in that new moon April 26. By screening out distractions, your concentration will be high.

This same new moon will also give you night vision, giving you the ability to see the unseen, and to heighten your awareness and intuition about events around you. When the facts are not there, others often become anxious, but not you now – you’ll see through the mist this month with exceptional clarity.
