General for Week Commencing: Monday 15 April 2019

	Aries	Monday 15 April 2019	Mar 21 - Apr 19
This is a big week for you, which is why the playful lunar vibes at the start of the week are such a huge advantage. It is less a better chance to keep things in perspective and more a boost in confidence across the board. For you not only begin the week with the Moon in a playful part of your chart, but at a friendly aspect to the Sun and Jupiter, who begin the week aligned. With the Sun in his final days in Aries and Jupiter in his first full week in retrograde motion in an adventurous part of your chart, this is the perfect way to enter the final days of your birthday month. And with Friday’s Full Moon likely to create some intensity in the last full day of your birthday month, this is the perfect circuit breaker. Especially as things could get busy midweek, with an exciting energy in play across the income, work and career fronts.

	Taurus	Monday 15 April 2019	Apr 20 - May 20
The Sun’s return to Taurus over the weekend will kick off your birthday month and new solar year, as happens at this time each year. This means that you begin the week in the final days of your old solar year, while ending the week with the doors open to a new solar year and a new journey. Except things aren’t so clear cut this year, with the lines between the past, present and future already blurred from the get go and then remaining blurred even after the Sun returns to Taurus. For it was just two weeks ago that Mars left Taurus and with Uranus still here, the trails that your new solar year will take have already been forged. Yet even after the Moon returns to Taurus, with Mercury returning to a nostalgic part of your chart on Wednesday and Venus over the weekend, you’re not ready to close the doors to the past just yet. In the meantime, there is something exciting building on the income and job fronts.

	Gemini	Monday 15 April 2019	May 21 - Jun 21
The lines between the past, present and future are already blurred, but they are set to become even more blurred by the end of the week. It is the Sun’s return to a nostalgic and reflective part of your chart over the weekend that will begin the month long wind down of your old solar year, something that happens at this time every year. Returning over not just any weekend but for many the long Easter weekend, this will be a valuable chance to regroup. Yet with Mars already in Gemini and already forging new trails and paths for a new solar year still a month away, you’re not ready to spend too much time navel gazing. Nor will you want to, making time out to hear yourself think more about quality rather than quantity. For while the Sun will leave a social and serendipitous part of your chart over the weekend, with Mercury returning on Wednesday and Venus just hours after the Sun leaves, life will retain a social drumbeat.

	Cancer	Monday 15 April 2019	Jun 22 - Jul 22
As a Moon ruled Sign, this week is likely to resonate strongly with you, especially as the Moon is set to have a big and varied impact on this exciting week. The week begins with the Moon not only in your income sector, but right in the heart of a major alignment between the Sun in your career sector and lucky Jupiter in your work sector. The week begins with an exciting triad of Fire energy firing things up across the income, work and career fronts. On Tuesday and Wednesday, the Moon will shift its focus to giving your emotional responses and relationships a voice, just as both planets in your relationship sector are preparing to turn retrograde. Yet it is as a Full Moon on the home front on Friday, that the Moon will bring some powerful work/life balance reminders, just as you head into what for most is the long weekend. Yet the Moon will return to a playful part of your chart over the weekend, with a valuable chance for time out to play.

	Leo	Monday 15 April 2019	Jul 23 - Aug 22
Starting the week with the Moon in Leo is always an advantage, giving you an intuitive edge from the get go. For the first time this year, this doesn’t come with complications, with every visit since a total lunar eclipse in January encountering push back from planets in opposition. Instead, there is a new sense of excitement in the air, with the Moon finding itself in the right place at the right time. For you also begin the week with the Sun, in his final days in an adventurous part of your chart aligned with Jupiter, in his first full week in retrograde motion in a playful part of your chart. With the Moon in a friendly alliance with both, the week begins with a grand trine of Fire energy, adding a new sense of confidence and excitement. With both planets in your work sector in their final weeks in direct motion but the Sun returning to your career sector over the weekend, this is also a timely reminder that life can’t be all work and no play.

	Virgo	Monday 15 April 2019	Aug 23 - Sep 22
Even without Friday’s rare second Full Moon in your income sector, this week was still going to be about money. However, for the most part, the money gods are more focused on the other side of the fence and on the Sun’s final days in your financial sector. Unlike your income sector, where the focus is on earned income, your financial sector deals with what you do with the money you have. Until the Sun leaves over the weekend, with the solar spotlight on your financial situation and money matters, this is the point in any year when the focus is on financial housekeeping. Mercury’s return on Wednesday will give you the smart head for money needed to keep your head in the game, just in time for Friday’s Full Moon. While this is a repeat of last month’s Full Moon, what you have this time that you didn’t then, was Mars in your career sector. This creates the potential for a breakthrough.

	Libra	Monday 15 April 2019	Sep 23 - Oct 23
At some point during the Sun’s month long visit to your relationship sector and therefore at this time every year, a Full Moon in Libra is a chance to give your needs a voice. Halfway between your last birthday month and the next and at the halfway point in each solar year, this is the point in any year when it is less about you and more about everyone else. This is the ‘what about me’ Full Moon. Yet Friday’s Full Moon in Libra is a repeat of the same Full Moon last month, creating the first opportunity for a do over in 58 years. This time you are more prepared and especially for any fallout this might create as the Sun and Moon, along with your personal and relationship needs clash. You have two secret weapons this time. The first is Mars’ position in an adventurous part of your chart and support for both you and the Moon. The second is Mercury, the planet of communication’s return to your relationship sector on Wednesday.

	Scorpio	Monday 15 April 2019	Oct 24 - Nov 21
If you have heard the expression or the song that speaks about four seasons in one day, then you know what to expect when I say you have four seasons in one week. This is a fast flowing and ever changing week, but an exciting one. The week begins with a grand trine of Fire energy in play, creating some exciting conditions across the income, work and career fronts. This can’t help but boost your job confidence, which will come in handy later in the week. For it is on Friday that the Sun, in his last full day in your work sector by then, will be confronted by a second Full Moon since his return last month. Heading into what for many is the long weekend, this will once again put a balance between knowing when to keep your work hat on and when to take it off, to the test. Yet in a week with a strong playful theme and with your relationships getting a boost over the weekend, the timing couldn’t be better.

	Sagittarius	Monday 15 April 2019	Nov 22 - Dec 21
If Jupiter’s first full week in retrograde motion in Sagittarius can be used as a guide for what to expect, then there is a lot to be excited about. Five months after returning to spend a year getting this new 12 year Jupiter cycle of expansion off on the right foot, Jupiter’s retrograde turn gives you a chance to pull back and retrace your steps, over the next four months. Jupiter begins the week as part of a grand trine of Fire energy, aligned with the Sun in his final days in a playful part of your chart and with adventurous lunar vibes. As the doors open to the past and second chances, playful and adventurous energy has you excited about the journey ahead. This is also the incentive to make the most of the Sun’s final days in a playful part of your chart, before turning the solar spotlight onto your work situation and job matters over the weekend.

	Capricorn	Monday 15 April 2019	Dec 22 - Jan 19
The Moon is making a big impression this week, but because it only spends a few days in each area of your chart, this means a varied and diverse impact. The week begins with the Moon in your financial sector and for the first time this year, there are no planets in opposition. Instead, support from lucky Jupiter in an intuitive and imaginative part of your chart is likely to fuel your financial confidence, instincts and imagination, all with 20/20 hindsight. The Moon will not only spend the middle days of the week in an adventurous part of your chart but aligned with playful forces. The Moon is also at a friendly aspect to Pluto and Saturn, now in their final weeks in direct motion in Capricorn. This is a chance to boost your personal confidence as well. This is also a chance to take a break before the Moon begins the lead up to a rare second Full Moon in your career sector on Friday.

	Aquarius	Monday 15 April 2019	Jan 20 - Feb 18
Since Venus left your career sector in January this professional year has become fairly quiet, as you would expect. Even having the North Node in your work sector, quietly steering work and job matters forward and in the right direction, is something that is happening in the background. Yet by the end of the week, there will be signs that things are about to heat up across the income, work and career fronts. Fortunately, it will be a case of small beginnings, for when Mars returns to your work sector next month the busiest months of 2019 will begin. This makes it important to make the most of the playful and adventurous influences in play this week. It is Friday’s adventurous Full Moon, the second in four weeks, that is likely to have a profound impact on Mars, in a playful part of your chart. Mars wasn’t here for last month’s Full Moon, but knowing how busy life is about to get, this is when the battle for a balance between work and play begins.

	Pisces	Monday 15 April 2019	Feb 19 - Mar 20
The week begins with the Moon in the right place at the right time. For you not only begin the week with the Moon in your work sector but with the Sun and Jupiter aligned. This is as auspicious as it gets and with the Sun in his final days in your income sector and Jupiter his first full week in retrograde motion in your career sector, everything across the income, work and career fronts will get a buzz from this. Yet by Tuesday the Moon will have turned its focus onto your relationships, finding itself in the wrong place at the right time. This might create some personal and/or relationship tension midweek but with Mercury, the planet of communication in his final hours in Pisces, he’s there to turn this into an opportunity for a breakthrough. The Moon will also play a starring role in Friday’s rare second Full Moon in your financial sector, creating the potential to bring both income and money matters to fruition or to a head, turning and/or tipping point.
