Taurus
April 2012 Horoscopes for Taurus 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. 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! Your ruler planet, graceful Venus is in preparation to take off (retrograde) in May, so April is an excellent month for you to get your projects off the ground, to commit to someone you love, to create, and especially to get your finances set, like making a safe investment. Make sure you get all your bills paid off in April, and leave some money on the side for last minute payments you didn’t count on. Are you planning on purchasing something expensive? Do it now or up until April 28th. 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… For you dear Taurus, your ruler Venus in Gemini can add some sparkles to your daily affairs, and as conservative as you are… adding new trends and novelties is always welcome. However you might be tempted to say whatever is necessary to amuse someone or to deflect serious issues in a relationship for example, and shoving the dust under the rug is never a good choice, because later on you will have to confront a heavier load. Speak up, and be honest. Organize your finances and diversify your savings. 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… For you dear Taurus, this time could be quite difficult for your finances, but if you have already organized it beforehand, your project you will be fine. Let this time pass and unfold naturally. Don’t expect for huge progress but instead review the many issues you have postponed facing for a while. 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. 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. You dear Taurus as Venus’ godchild, will be in the spotlight when this special Eclipse happens. 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. A friend has promised to help you on something, but hasn’t made any action towards really doing it. But from now on you can count of your friends’ cooperation. Now everything goes smoothly and QUICKLY. On the 5th, you are tempted to do something “politically incorrect” or omit an important event to your significant other and you could get in trouble for it. You hate to be dishonest or when someone tries to bend the truth, right? So beware, because you too can be deceived today. Don’t trust anybody with money issues. Venus is still in stressful aspect on the 7th and now it’s directed towards Mars, the planet that rules sex and aggressiveness. Don’t expect for a romantic day dear Taurus; this is the kind of energy you wish would never exist. Just be patient during these days, and since Venus is in a bad mood, don’t start any conflicts with the people you love. You can express your feelings but be kind when doing so. But on the 8th… everything changes for the better, and if you broke up with your lover in the past few days, there’s a chance you’ll get back together again today. Single Taurus, this is a great day to have a night out with your friends… Somebody very special can shake your heart and make a big impression on you. 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. The full moon is demanding you pay attention to your health. It’s like you can either intentionally change some wrong habits or you can be forced to make the changes, like you find out you have high cholesterol (Taurus love food made with rich ingredients) so suddenly it’s time to substitute the heavy cream for the fat free cream. 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. Be flexible during this full moon, listen to others; sometimes you are so stubborn dear Taurus… you miss the opportunities just because you refuse to try something different. Pay attention to your dreams, they can hold the key to your evolution. 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. During this time, if you are considering a move to another country, it’s better to postpone it until September. The same applies for matters relating to legalization procedures, passports or travel if it’s not necessary. But the most important thing to remember at this time is to be more flexible with other’s points of view, to others’ philosophies and spiritual pursuits. You can even transform your life for the better. 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.
Mars has been traveling your area of love, creativity and children and you haven’t been able to express yourself as clearly and openly as you’d like. But from now on, you want to recover the wasted time and express your creativity and your love to someone special. If you are single and your relationship has been at the “stagnation” point, get ready for action from now on. But hurry up; the energy now will be so fast that it will be easy to miss the train. 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. For you dear Taurus, this is a great time to work behind the scenes and work in silence on a project. You may find the best strategies and when Mercury enters Taurus, (May 9th) you are ready to launch your projects and show the world how talented and unique you are. On the 19th, the Sun enters the practical and stabilizing Taurus. Happy birthday dear Taurus! It’s you time to shine! It’s time to reprogram life projects and make your resolutions for the New Year to come. 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. 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 your new moon, made for you and this one will be a gift from heaven, because this is a very special one. This lunation will be very powerful because it has the input of Pluto, helping you to move in new directions. Mars’ energies can speed up projects helping you get them off the ground and Neptune blesses whatever inspires you and whatever you start today. You feel renewed and up for new beginnings during this new moon. Start something today! Make today your Day One for any project. 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. Have an amazing April! Plant the seed of love in your heart!
