Your horoscope from April 30 to May 6, 2015

    1 of 1 2 of 1

      Mercury enters Gemini on Thursday evening. Usually, the quick mover and shaker spends two or three weeks visiting a sign, but due to its upcoming retrograde cycle, Mercury will stay mobilized in Gemini for 10 weeks. We’ll talk, write, read, and trade more. We’ll get around more, too.

      The socializing, shopping, and sexual spark make for an upbeat Friday. Hit the dance floor or see an action flick—entertainment is on the ready dial-up. For the most part, Saturday should roll along, but as Mercury builds an opposition to Saturn, there can be something weighing on the mind, heart, or wallet. There’s an important conversation to have, an objective to reach. A methodical, rational approach is the best way to play it. This Mercury/Saturn combination can be one of inconvenience, annoyance, delayed response, limited options, narrow-mindedness, or expectation shortfalls.

      If you feel depleted, discouraged, stymied, or stuck, you won’t be for long. Sunday’s full moon in Scorpio is replenishing and fertile. It can uncover something potent, validating, juicy, and worthwhile. It can dismantle the barriers that have prevented a soul-to-soul meet-up. With the full moon comes deeper probing and questioning; more is divulged, uncovered, procured, or secured. Make sure your obsession is a healthy one.

      Sunday’s full moon puts the focus on more effective planning, strategizing, and action-taking. Monday/Tuesday, there’s more to sort through and aim for. Wednesday is optimal, lucrative, and fruitful. It can be a day of smooth travel, great connectivity, and easy gains.

      Aries
      March 20 - April 20

      If you’ve felt like you’d rather walk than run over the past month, it’s because Mars has been on a slow go through Taurus. Starting Thursday, Mercury in Gemini will get you better mobilized, not only physically but socially, too. Sunday’s full moon sets the stage for a major financial, legal, relationship, or personal step forward. Wednesday brings fruition, reward, or opportunity.

      Taurus
      April 20 - May 21

      Mars and Mercury in Taurus have kept you driven and focused for the past few weeks. Perhaps you’ve been plowing through or hanging on, too. Mercury’s 10-week visit to Gemini will now launch a domino cycle and get it rolling faster. Through Sunday’s full moon, Mercury is in a face-off with reality-check Saturn. Call it progress.

      Gemini
      May 21 - June 21

      For the next 10 weeks, Mercury in Gemini will keep life on a faster spin. First, though, there’s something or someone holding you up or piling on added pressure. Sunday’s full moon could expose something you’ve missed or overlooked. On the plus side, it can take the edge off. By Tuesday/Wednesday, you’ll hit a much easier, smoother move-along.

      Cancer
      June 21 - July 22

      Should you or shouldn’t you? Inwardly or outwardly, the next few days can put you through the paces. If you can’t make a decision or take action, let it play out; it will. Although there’s still push/pull or uncertainty at the start of the week, by Wednesday/Thursday, you should feel that you’re finding your way.

      Leo
      July 22 - August 23

      Since the middle of the month, Venus in Gemini has been boosting your social life and earning potential. As of Thursday evening, you’ll gain a second wind from Mercury in Gemini. Even so, through Saturday/Sunday there’s something to reach, complete, or clear away. Sunday through Tuesday, the full moon makes it official. By Wednesday, you should feel things are shaping up well.

      Virgo
      August 23 - September 23

      By Sunday onward, something you’ve been working through or toward will become much clearer. Along with the full moon, Mercury/Saturn can remove a doubt or a block, end a wait, provide an answer, make you feel more justified or more secure. The week ahead is a lucrative time to hunt for a new job, project, or address.

      Libra
      September 23 - October 23

      Your timing is good Thursday/Friday, especially when you take your lead from the here and now. For the most part, Mercury in Gemini puts you in a good social flow and head space. Use this transit to get yourself better situated, educated, or known. Sunday’s full moon can spring something extra on you. On Wednesday, get moving, put it into action. Opportunity is at peak.

      Scorpio
      October 23 - November 22

      Is your charge card doing overtime? Mercury will spend the next 10 weeks in your financial sector. Over the next few days, it opposes Saturn. It pays to be a realist—a serious talk with yourself or another is well timed. Sunday’s full moon can take the brakes off and/or dish up a great opportunity. Monday onward, dive in.

      Sagittarius
      November 22 - December 21

      Mercury in Gemini will get you out and about more. It’ll give you more to talk about, too, but you may be on a pause or delayed response until Sunday, when Mercury surpasses Saturn. The full moon can reveal or confirm more. As well, it could add expense or strike a deeper emotional chord. From here, you’ll hit a major upswing, especially on Wednesday.

      Capricorn
      December 21 - January 20

      Keep working on it, but don’t buy into the struggle part or force what isn’t coming naturally. Once Mercury surpasses Saturn early Sunday, the answer, solution, right words, or right time can be found. The Scorpio full moon prompts a breakthrough, an opening, or a turnaround. It’s easily obtained, gained, or undertaken. Monday through Wednesday, it’s full steam ahead.

      Aquarius
      January 20 - February 18

      For the past few weeks, Venus in Gemini has put your heart in the game. As of Thursday, Mercury puts your head in it too. Both boost creative, social, and romantic opportunity, but Venus has recently been diffused and Mercury must first pass Saturn. Wednesday is optimal; speak it, sell it, go exploring, cut loose, go all out.

      Pisces
      February 18 - March 20

      For the next 10 weeks, Mercury in Gemini will keep you on the go with home projects, family, visitors, or address-hunting. The transit will also keep you busy with a home-based business or a creative-writing project. Sunday’s full moon could give you greater clarity on a legal matter or see you wrap up important paperwork.
