For Friday, April 19

Hello, Taurus season! First, communicative Mercury conjoins balanced Venus, inspiring clear, honest expressions of our thoughts. When the confident Sun moves into grounded Taurus, life takes on a stable, sensual and patient vibe, making it easier to think before we act. Later on, fiery Mars works with wise Jupiter and innovative Uranus, so we can combine creative ideas from our past and fresh revelations for the present. There’s ample energy. We just have to seize it.

ARIES

MARCH 2 1 -APRIL 1 9

You are more than just a face in the crowd. Internal doubts about your ability to make a difference can’t keep you down, because you know your truth and you’re ready to share it. By simply being yourself in a genuine way, you become an example to others who need inspiration.

TAURUS

APRIL 2 0 -MAY 2 0 Understanding yourself is one thing, while expressing your truth is another. Your emotions, your creativity, your more intangible thoughts, they can all flow from you in a way that makes sense to you and your loved ones. This powerful energy will let you actualize a side of yourself that was once out of reach.

GEMINI

MAY 2 1 -JUNE 2 0 The people who surround you now may understand you more than you do. You might be struggling to see the light at the end of the tunnel for the moment. Your loved ones can offer an outside perspective as a eureka moment for you. With their guidance, you can understand what you must do.

CANCER

JUNE 2 1 -JULY 2 2 Good news might be publicly revealed about you. The more honest you are about this change, with yourself and others, the more fulfillment you’re likely to enjoy. Your authentic self and the dynamic changes taking place in your life will combine to create a brand-new you!

LEO

JULY 2 3 -AUG. 2 2 Patience can directly translate to progress. Your career and public life can both progress steadily when you put in the work. Now that you’ve built a foundation, you can see windows of opportunity to study your goals more efficiently. You can slowly and steadily win the race.

VIRGO

AUG. 2 3 -SEPT. 2 2 You might be expressing some hurt that you’ve been holding onto for a long time. To wholly heal your soul, allow yourself to speak out about what you’ve been feeling. Doing so can release any remaining pain, allowing you to move forward with freedom. Sometimes our vulnerability can be the strongest thing to offer.

LIBRA

SEPT. 2 3 -OCT. 2 2

It’s time to brainstorm with someone close to you. This person may have a great idea that naturally sparks another great idea from you, till you end up bouncing off of each other like a tennis match of intriguing potential. Two heads are better than one, so get to brainstorming!

SCORPIO

OCT. 2 3 -NOV. 2 1

Someone needs to hear your boundaries and respect them. Sometimes it can be intimidating to tell others what you really need emotionally or even physically, but it is necessary. Ensure that you’re doing what’s right for you, even if it means telling someone no.

SAGITTARIUS

NOV. 2 2 -DEC. 2 1

You might hold back sometimes because you don’t want others to claim that you’re being sensitive or overreacting, but in this instance, you should not shrink yourself for the comfort of others. It would be better for your mental health to let others know who you are unapologetically.

CAPRICORN

DEC. 2 2 -JAN. 1 9 You’re expressing your heart to your family. Whether this is your biological family or your chosen family, letting your loved ones know what’s been going on inside is healthy. They may, in turn, reciprocate and share what’s been going on in their own lives.

AQUARIUS

JAN. 2 0 -FEB. 1 8

No matter how much fog once obscured your vision, the clouds have parted, enabling you to see the ideal way forward. It’s not always easy to know what your heart and mind are telling you, especially when they’re conflicting, but you now have a much clearer map.

PISCES

FEB. 1 9 -MARCH 2 0

Today is not the time for daydreaming. Maybe you simply woke up on the right side of the bed and are operating at top speed, or you might have a specific reason to stay focused, perhaps a new goal or fresh inspiration. This extra motivation encourages you to strengthen your life’s structures and prevent yourself from getting off track.
