Gemini - April 2019

Hi Gemini!  Mercury is back in forward motion in your career sector in April, and you will finally be back on track with those big ambitions! After a month of misunderstandings and setbacks connected to important work-related projects, opportunities which seemed to fade away in late February will suddenly crop up again during the first two weeks of the month, and it will be all systems go.  This is an excellent time to capture the attention of those you want to impress with your intelligent, persuasive and charming manner. It’s also a fabulous time to apply for a new job or attend an interview. Mercury has been making significant aspects with some of the Zodiac’s key players during this period, and the days up to the 11th will see him reconnect with Neptune and Saturn here, reinitiating outdated creative ventures, research projects and investment opportunities which first came up for discussion in early March.

This month’s new Moon energy is directed towards your friendships, and the days around the 5th could see a new friend arriving in your world.  This person will be a breath of fresh air in your social group, and will have some fantastic ideas for activities.  You may also be invited to join a new club or society now, this will be a place where you are surrounded by others who share your aims and views, and will make you feel welcome.  The full Moon on the 19th illuminates your house of leisure and creativity for the second month in a row.  A chance to begin a new creative hobby was missed in mid-March when you hesitated over whether it was right for you; you will be given the time to revisit this opportunity now, so be careful not to miss it this time around, it’s the way forward!

Saturn and Pluto are both losing speed in April, as they prepare to turn retrograde at the month end.  They are currently occupying the part of your chart which deals with debts and money you borrow from and owe to others, therefore you are likely to experience some frustration around credit cards, mortgages and loans as we head towards May.  Applications for credit could be delayed or rejected, and you may be forced to review your finances and make some changes to how you spend and what you prioritise. You might also encounter issues around an inheritance or tax return.  Saturn and Pluto are moving towards a powerful conjunction this month which will last for the remainder of 2019, and in this time the way you depend on others for financial security is set to drastically alter.  By early 2020, you will be much more self-reliant and in charge of your financial future.

Mars spends the month in your sign, boosting those vitality levels and making all kinds of exciting plans for your future!  This is a time for high energy activity; if you have been putting off some of those tedious tasks at work or home, make a list and start working through it.  You will feel more confident and assertive now, but you could also be a little impatient with those who are not feeling quite so dynamic.  Your desire for results might also make you seem a little pushy or self-centred.  Mars’s sextile with Mercury after the 26th and into the first week of May, is a positive aspect for fighting your corner in conversations and debates, but take care not to overreact to those who disagree with you, or this could turn out to be a period of arguments and petty disputes. Have a fabulous month!
