HOROSCOPES: APRIL 4, 2018
MOON ALERT: We have the “all clear” today to shop and do business. The moon is in Sagittarius.
IF TODAY IS YOUR BIRTHDAY: Actor Heath Ledger ( 1979- 2008) shares your birthday today. You are saucy, bold and daring. You value and protect your privacy. Exciting changes and new beginnings await you this year! Now is the time to take the initiative and clarify your goals. What you begin now will unfold in the future because this is the beginning of a new cycle. Your physical strength will increase this year as well. Aries ( March 21- April 19): You are quick to take umbrage today. ( Make sure you take your huff with you wherever you go so that you will be able to leave in it.) It’s not worth getting into a fight with a parent or a boss today. Just suck it up because this is a fleeting anger.
Taurus ( April 20- May 20): Today a vague feeling of discontent makes you quick to take offense. ( Not to be confused with the chance to take a fence, or better yet, a gate. For a fence, you need property. You’re a country squire at heart and a country squire needs land where lambs can roam!) Be content thinking of the land you might fence one day.
Gemini ( May 21- June 20): Don’t be snappish with someone today because what’s the point? This person will be offended. You will feel further annoyed. The vicious circle continues. Instead, be the hero. As the Bible says, turn the other cheek.
Cancer ( June 21- July 22): Disputes with parents, bosses or the police are likely today because people are touchy and quick to assume that any kind of communication from someone is a challenge. Today people are getting told off. You might also attract this to you. If you see it coming— run! Leo ( July 23- Aug. 22): You might feel you have to defend your beliefs against someone today. They might attack your position on politics, religion or race. But how did you get drawn into this? You don’t even want to be here. Curtail this discussion ASAP. Virgo ( Aug. 23- Sept. 22): Discussions about inheritances or shared property will not be pleasant today. This is because Mercury, the planet of communication, is at odds with Mars, the God of War. Obviously, this is a poor day for discussions about sharing responsibilities, money or property. Table these discussions for another day.
Libra ( Sept. 23- Oct. 22): You might attract someone today who wants to convince you of something or they want to attack your ideas. Well, you’re no fool. Why are you going to stand there and take it? Confucius said, “He who flings dirt only loses ground.”
Scorpio ( Oct. 23- Nov. 21): Every day we work with the same people. This can be trying. But today, you’re working with boorish ingrates! ( Is there no justice?) Demonstrate grace under pressure. What else can you do? Sagittarius ( Nov. 22- Dec. 21): Lover’s quarrels will occur today. These are painful. They can ruin your day. The bottom line of a lover’s quarrel is: If you do that you don’t love me. Or: If you don’t do this, you don’t love me. The best solution is a warm caring hug.
Capricorn ( Dec. 22- Jan. 19): Family arguments might arise today. These are often power struggles. Who is running the show? Family, your home and your status in the community are important to you. You don’t want these things to be threatened. Remove yourself from the situation.
Aquarius ( Jan. 20- Feb. 18): This is an accident- prone day for your sign because you might have a feeling of repressed rage. Accidents related to burns, especially to arms and legs, or while walking or driving are likely. Be your own best friend. Pay attention.
Pisces ( Feb. 19- March 20): Money quarrels might erupt today. These can be nasty. People are never casual about money. ( They are more private about money than their sex lives!) Greed motivates us all— some to a lesser degree, some to a greater degree. Nevertheless, greed rules.
