Your horoscope for April 10 to 16, 2008

By Mac McLaughlin

Don’t know about you, but I’m keeping my helmet and shoulder pads close at hand in anticipation of the battles that are destined to materialize in the days to come.

April 10 is a doozy. The sun and Jupiter square off early in the morning, giving rise to overestimations, false confidence, and spouting off in ways that create ego clashes. Mercury squares off with Mars midmorning, and is another indicator of sparks and fur flying and tears flowing.

April 11 and 12 bring more of the same. Those that are chafing at the restrictions or appalled by the blatant misuse of power may react strongly, and the proverbial poop will hit the fan. This could be a good thing in terms of the end results, as the darkness gets exposed and a fresh wind blows the stench away as we carry on with our duties and responsibilities.

Yes, it is a profound and dynamic time, and it must be met and dealt with straight on. Although the above commentary is a tad ominous, it may not be so. Imagine that you are at a board meeting; you must perform under pressure, and you ace it. Breakthroughs are indicated, and high energy, success, and abundance could follow.

Fight the good fight and stay in the light, and for sure you will win and we will all win. Campfires and bonfires sparkle and rage as everyone chooses sides and gets with the program. Jump in and enjoy the fun; ’tis the season to bring on the changes and the challenges.

Aries
March 21 - April 19

Saddle up and get ready to ride. It’s time to face your fears and finally overcome them. Cast off the ball and chain from the past and commence your journey of discovery into unknown territory. You are blazing a trail that others will no doubt walk someday. Intense times have arrived, and you will be tested but not bested. April tells the tale.

Taurus
April 20 - May 21

Life’s activities have intensified; they are leading to some powerful revelations that will come by the light of the full moon on April 20. In the meantime, there is much work to be done. Be strong and proactive regarding the things you truly want to do. The stars are shaping up nicely for your sign, and you must work with this energy and embrace it in order to attain success.

Gemini
May 22 - June 20

A large amount of planetary energy is pouring into your sign, and in typical Gemini fashion you may have a lot on the go. The pace really can’t quicken much, and you’ll have to accommodate all that is on your plate. April 10 through 13 are intense days for all signs and whatever comes up, no doubt you’ll be right in the middle of it. Do enjoy.

Cancer
June 21 - July 23

You know the feeling you get when you’re approaching the first hill on a roller coaster, when excitement mixed with sheer terror and anticipation overwhelms you? Life is like that now. The moon passes through Cancer from April 10 to 12. With the planetary dynamics in play, you will have to hold on tight, overcome the fright, and throw yourself into the fray. Powerful forces are at work, and your life is changing rapidly.

Leo
July 24 - August 23

The Aries planets, the moon, and the stars are no barrier to thee. You thrive on the drama, and may even create most of it. You could be of the mind to set off on your quest for truth, love, and spirituality. You should, as it is the only game in town worthy of your time and effort. Your odyssey will last forever, and you will lose and find yourself many times. April 13 and 14 are your best days this week.

Virgo
August 24 - September 23

The moon visits Virgo from April 15 to 17, enhancing life’s activities all around. April 15 may not start off that way, and the events that transpire may help you make important decisions regarding your career. The ride smoothes out nicely as we move toward the last half of April. Hard work and dedication pay off.

Libra
September 20 - October 23

Intense, dynamic, and challenging days lie ahead; in fact, they are onboard right now. April 10 through 13 are days when all kinds of controversies and concerns blow up. You are the peacemaker and the warrior combined, and you must step up and throw your hat into the ring. You may even enjoy it all.

Scorpio
October 24 - November 22

The traditional ruler of Scorpio is Mars. He is manifesting strongly these days, and although the planets are not affecting you directly, you may find yourself in the centre of the storm that is destined to come our way, particularly from April 10 to 13. Still, there may be excellent opportunities for you to truly do well.

Sagittarius
November 23 - December 21

Lord Jupiter has entered the fray with the sun, moon, Mercury, and Mars energies that are onboard from April 10 to 13. Concerns regarding income and resources take up your time, and you may be in the thick of it if you are politically minded. Opportunities appear regarding some type of creative work.

Capricorn
December 22 - January 20

The squeaky wheel gets the grease, freeing it up. This is a profound time for your sign, and everything depends on what you make of it all. The trick of the times is to enjoy and bask in the limelight, while avoiding biting off more than you can chew. April 10 through 13 are dynamic and possibly dangerous days that must be handled with care.

Aquarius
January 21 - February 19

A busy and demanding time is upon you. You may not mind, and may enjoy it. Time spent with friends fits the bill nicely. Emotional issues that have lingered get cleared up nicely on April 14. Health considerations must be dealt with.

Pisces
February 20 - March 21

April 16 and 17 could be a little rough emotionally, but this will pass. Relationship activity heats up, and you could be in demand. You may also face some stark truths, fears, and limitations, but again, breakthroughs are indicated.
