Sagittarius

April 2012 Horoscopes Sagittarius

April starts with a big push in communication. Venus the planet of beauty, luxury and the arts enters the sign of Gemini, the sign of communication, your opposite sign, dear Sagittarius, and right in your area of relationships. Your love life doesn’t get luckier than that.

Mercury has being retrograde since March 12, but now it goes DIRECT.
And don’t forget Mars has being retrograde since January 23rd, remember?  It is also direct this month!

So it sounds like a blessing for all kinds of communications on our planet. Now we will see the events and projects developing and going back to their normal speed.
That important document that has being lost will finally reach you; it was sent to the wrong address….
Now you can buy a new computer, you can schedule a trip and you can sign that important contract.

I especially love April because it’s when the trees in the northern hemisphere start to bloom, the weather gets warmer and we can enjoy life outdoors.  This particular April is going to be even better thanks to the direct movement of the two planets Mercury and Mars; we will move from slow motion to fast speed.

Pluto will start to retrograde, but not like Mercury retrograde; Pluto retrogrades inwards, and we just tend to be more introspective, facing our fears and being ready for an inward transformation.

Buckle up and get ready for April! Look beautiful and embrace this moment! Love is in the air dear Sagittarius.

Venus enters the sign of Gemini, the sign of the butterfly, seeking flavors of fun, flirtation and diversity on April 3rd. 
At this time, we want experiment with new forms of art and beauty.
But faithfulness may not be the priority; being entertaining is more important than being sincere. Our hearts will be pulled in several directions. If you want to conquer someone’s heart… be interesting and well informed.

Gemini is the sign of new trends in fashion, so it’s a good time to do some spring shopping, to buy a piece of art work or to change your hair style, but only until May 15th…

When Venus, the goddess of beauty, love and all the good things life can offer enters your section of relationships, it’s the time of the year when you get lucky and you become ‘most wanted,’ most desired by all other human beings. You become the projection of Venus, and everybody feels attracted to you dear Sagittarius.
If you are single you won’t stay so for much longer and if you are attached you will be surprised by how much love you will receive from your significant other.

Venus stays in Gemini for a long time, until August 7th (usually Venus remains in one sign for 25 to 30 days) because in May the goddess of love and grace is also taking some time off… she will go retrograde until June 27th in Gemini.
Brides-to-be: don’t set your wedding date with Venus retrograde or your may regret it later… or worse the groom never shows up for the big day!

Don’t even think about getting a beauty procedure at this time either.
Some of us may bump into an old ‘ex’ and the flame may rekindle…
During the period Venus is retrograde, you may bump into an ex and become very confused about your feelings, but it wont last for too long, don’t make any mistakes by replacing someone you are in a stable relationship with, just because of the momentary impact your ex may have caused because it won’t last, dear Sagittarius.

Let me clarify all of this.
From April 4th to May 15th you are free to do anything related to beauty, love, (wedding), shopping, beauty transformation and whatever your imagination dictates.
But after May 15th and until June 27th, RED FLAG! Venus will be retrograde.

From June 27th to August 7th you are allowed to schedule again any and everything related to Venus.
You are so lucky to have had Venus in your ‘love’ sector for that long a period, dear Sagittarius.

Venus will be highlighted during the summertime; in June she is producing a very special Eclipse, an event that happens only once every 122 years! I will explain it in details and how to be receptive for this event in the June horoscopes.

On the 4th, Mercury goes direct! God bless us all!
Share your experiences with Mercury retrograde on my blog or on Facebook.
Now projects get off the ground and we are ready to making new connections. No more delays!
Now we can put the messy past behind us.

Mercury can now straighten out your feelings for someone, if you were having doubts; now you know if he or she is the one, or NOT the one… dear Sagittarius.

The full moon in Libra is on April 6th at 3:19 AM (Eastern Time).
This is a time to balance giving too much to others, undermining our own interests with compromises, and being responsible for our relationships and partnerships.

This is not a fun full moon but a call to remember our responsibilities and duties to one another. Saturn will be next to the moon, and the Sun opposing Saturn will be squaring Pluto. Observe in your chart where this full moon will be shinning because this is the area where you need to face reality and transform old patterns into new ways of expression.

During this full moon a friend may need your help on a very serious matter, and it will be a great opportunity for you to show your love and friendship for someone special, dear Sagittarius. You may want to have fun with your lover or lets say you just started a new relationship (after all you are in the mood for love) but your responsibilities as a friend may call louder and you have to sacrifice a lovely romantic night to hug your friend in tears. Tomorrow it could be you who needs your friend’s shoulder to cry on dear Sagittarius.

On April 10th, Pluto starts to retrograde, until September 18th driving our desires and power underground. This almost five-month retrograde cycle provides an opportunity to find out what are our real needs and what is ripe to be transformed in order to have the best growth.

Pluto is in your area of money, in his retrograde period evoking a great moment to think about your relationship with money. Remember that money can never take away your power; this only happens when you allow yourself to be motivated by the material value of things instead of the value of your talent. Learn to replace the power of money with the ‘will’ to follow your real talent, and money will come as a consequence, not as a means.

On April 13th, Mars ends its retrograde period which began on January 23rd. We will experience a much faster pace relating to our work projects and decision making. Mars is the ruler of action, energy and sex. Rage and war as well.

What great news for you dear Sagittarius, your career felt like it was stagnated since last January; you felt like you had a straitjacket on, right? You were not able to move forward on your projects. And some of you may have had the worst time dealing with your boss…
Now roll up your sleeves dear Sagittarius and give that PUSH in your career, to recover the wasted time.

Mercury in revolutionary Aries helps get projects off the ground from the 16th until May 9th. This is a special “entree” of Mercury in Aries because it is happening right after Mercury retrograde, so we feel like communication, travel and the world of gadgets go from slow motion to super fast speed.

There will suddenly be a rush to say what has been left unsaid… for many reasons.
It’s the perfect time to sign a contract, be it property related, business related or a marital contract.

Mercury is ingressing in your area of love, fun, kids, creativity and hobbies.
The time will be short dear Sagittarius but you will make the best out of it. If you have kids you will be concerned with their education; maybe you’ll be spending some time visiting high schools or colleges.
You may find a new hobby or a new object of love during this time.

On the 19th, the Sun enters the practical and stabilizing Taurus.
It’s a time to put our feet on the ground and plant the seed of the project you want to tackle in the next months.
It’s a time to learn patience and persistence.

It’s a good time to work peacefully and plan your work projects to perfection. Your attention could be focused on your health, because you want to change your diet and be healthier.

The new moon will be rising on the 21st, at 3:19 AM (Eastern Time) at the very first degree of Taurus making beautiful aspects to Pluto, Neptune and Mars, initiating a moment to take action, to move forward, follow our intuition, and plant the first seeds of our upcoming projects.

This is such a great opportunity to discover dormant new talents within you or to find the best way to meditate and connect with your soul and subconscious mind. You could get so much from this new moon dear Sagittarius, give and be generous, help a charity foundation, give away objects, clothing and things you don’t need anymore.

This lunation supportive trine from Pluto proposes a call to transform and eliminate nonessential attitudes, activities and behaviors balancing the bull’s tendency to resist change.
It’s a time for physical pleasure and to reconnection with our five senses, but with the input of Neptune, to our 6th sense as well.

You can have an amazing spiritual evolution during this new moon if you connect internally with yourself. Meditation is one of the best ways to do so, dear Sagittarius.

Have an amazing April! Plant the seed of love in your heart!
