Stars Align: April 5-11, an impulsive energy week

This week, the effects of the full moon linger on, impacting relationships and eventually leading to emotional clarity after conflict. 

Mars, the planet of action and passion, will move into its ruling sign, Aries, on April 9. This brings impulsive energy, and you might feel increasingly competitive, courageous and more likely to act on an urge. 

Expect fiery energy, direct communication and bluntness to be prominent this week as the remnants of the Pink Moon dare us all to be honest with ourselves and in our relationships. 

Aries (March 21–April 19):

Aries, this week you are the star of the show. Mars in your sign brings an extra edge of confidence and ambition. This is a great time to make a bold move. Bring up what has been bothering you, send the text and remember your goals. As you move through the week, challenge yourself to reject doubt and push through your own fears. 

Taurus (April 20–May 20):

Taurus, you have been drained over the last few weeks. This week invites you to take your energy inward. Focus on places and people that make you feel safe. Expect a quieter, peaceful time this week as you come back to yourself. Let your people in, as their energy will help replenish you. Enjoy your reflective reset week. 

Gemini (May 21–June 20):

Gemini, you have been feeling extra social and growing more connected with your people. This week, channel that energy you have been putting into others into yourself. Reflect on your goals, and continue to dream about the big plans you have. Remind yourself you can do it, then go get a drink with your friends. You have been working hard. 

Cancer (June 21–July 22):

Your emotions will take a toll on you this week as you might learn of career changes or growing responsibilities, Cancer. Pressure follows you this week as you focus on the expectations you have for yourself. It’s important now more than ever to stay grounded in yourself. Take it one step at a time and focus on the meaningful moments. 

Leo (July 23–Aug. 22):

Expect an exciting week full of new experiences and increased energy. The universe rewards curiosity. You have big dreams; answer your own “what ifs” with action. Don’t ignore your feelings this week, ground yourself in your own truth as you move along and go after what you desire. 

Virgo (Aug. 23–Sept. 22):

This is a very productive week for you, Virgo, if you continue to build upon your routines and channel your stress. Reassess your priorities and, in the final weeks of the school year, let go of some responsibilities; instead, focus on manageable milestones. Do one thing you’ve been seriously avoiding this week, then follow through. Show yourself you can. 

Libra (Sept. 23–Oct. 22):

You’re going to experience relationship tension and pressure this week. Remember to maintain emotional stability, speak from the heart and clearly communicate through struggles. This is a time to stop overreacting and instead face the problem head-on. You might also experience unexpected changes in your career path. Whew! Hold on tight, Libra. 

Scorpio (Oct. 23–Nov. 21):

This week, the Aries energy begs you to focus on present responsibilities and not rush decisions. Take time to do what you do best, inner reflection. You might have a problem you haven’t solved or a decision you’ve been avoiding. In order to move past it, you need to take a patient approach. You know what you need to do; it’s all about staying steady to strategically get there. Focus on your own capabilities. 

Sagittarius (Nov. 22–Dec. 21):

Embrace the confidence you have been building and go after what you want this week. The universe rewards bold moves in love and creative endeavors. Pay attention to what excites you and remember to pour intentional energy into it. Use your momentum wisely and take care of what takes care of you with passion. 

Capricorn (Dec. 22–Jan. 19):

Capricorn, this week will feel a bit scattered. You have been working to embrace change, and this week you might find yourself needing to have honest or hard conversations you’ve been avoiding. Focus on the balance between personal life and the outside world.  It’s important to stay flexible this week and remind yourself of your inner strength. 

Aquarius (Jan. 20–Feb. 18):

You’ll come out of your cocoon this week, Aquarius. Expect an increase in energy. The time of feeling low is over; get outside and be social; this will help you not to feel so overwhelmed. Your mood will increase this week as work life will become more manageable and clear. Focus on your priorities this week and hug yourself. The tides are turning for you and you’ve made it here. 

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20):

This week, stay grounded in recent insights. Pay attention to how you have been feeling; your momentum is changing. Use that to focus on how to practically fulfill your desires. Your career will head toward success. Small wins will propel you forward this week, but watch your head; make sure it doesn’t get too far up in the clouds.
