19 April: The Week Ahead

We begin the week moving toward the New Moon on the 24th. Release those things you no longer need, and prepare the ground to move forward beginning on Friday.

20 and 21 April:Physical passion peaks along with a desire for social interaction. Channel the energy into new artistic work. This is a sensual peak, so pick a sensual setting that's special for you and enjoy! Don’t let this powerful energy lead you into excessive or risky behavior, though.

21 and 22 April:Now is the time to let your organizational talent and problem-solving qualities shine. It's prime time to expand your communication with others, particularly in business. Take care to avoid being arrogant or making excessive demands in these interactions. Optimism reigns, and helps expand your plans. Your major risk is taking on too many dreams of future expansion. Stay practical and committed, and let growth happen naturally.

24 April: The New Moon happens today. Launch your projects for this upcoming lunar cycle.

25 April:Your mental world opens through dreams or impressionable mental states which can prove to be visionary and inspiring. Connections become clear between things previously not understood, or things previously understood become veiled. Plan retreats to intensify these inner states. Communicating these impressions to others may be difficult. Take care in business communications to be precise, and avoid illusion or deception in communications and contracts.

26 April:Your desire to achieve goals is at its peak. You can wield a relentless energy in pursuit of your goals. Obsession can result - so be careful with your intensity. Conversely, you may be the recipient of excessive force from others, or attempts to control you. Using too much force, taking excessive risks, or becoming arrogant or inflexible can create conflicts or dangerous situations.

Have a great week!
