22 MIDWEEK APRIL 12, 2023
RELEASE DATE—Sunday, April 9, 2023 RELEASE DATE—Sunday, April 9, 2023
Whatever we are thinking, let’s first reflect on all possible outcomes. Some may be fabulous and others may involve some unintended clean-up. This week, think first, act later.
ARIES (MARCH 21 - APRIL 20)
Aries are primed and ready to make some momentous financial decisions. Before you jump into anything, expect the unexpected. There may
be things that come to pass that change or modify what you want to achieve. Take a big deep breath and mellow out until all of the potential possibilities present themselves.
TAURUS (APRIL 21-MAY 21)
While you enjoy all of the attention and adoration, allow yourself time to take it all in before you make any big moves. Sometimes going slowly and carefully enables you to maintain your balance as the landscape shifts. You have it in you, Taurus, to do great things. The secret of your success will be to navigate it carefully.
GEMINI (MAY22-JUNE21)
What you think is going on may or may not be what is really going on. Or, maybe what is going on will wind up being much more dramatic than you expect. Whatever the fates deliver you this week, Gemini, remain alert, solid and steady, and pretend that you knew what was happening all along. You have them all fooled!
CANCER (JUNE22-JULY23)
Your social life becomes a big swirl, Cancer. That means whenever you find yourself in the center of the conversation consider all directions the chit- chat can take you. Make it work for you but also be sure that you take full advantage should the winds shift. You can convince others of anything.
LEO (JULY24-AUGUST23)
Wherever you want to go and whatever you want to achieve, be sure that you think it out and carefully plan your ascent. Anything can happen. Anything can change. Take advantage of any opportunity once you figure out the logistics and risks. Even then, who knows? You need to remain flexible, optimistic and open, Leo.
VIRGO (AUGUST24-SEPTEMBER23)
Travel may have its surprising moments, even if you have planned
out every detail very carefully, Virgo. It seems that surprising turns of events make even a simple escape not so simple. Don’t feel any panic or frustration. This is all part of the fun, and it can lead you to even more life experiences. It’s what adventure is all about.
LIBRA (SEPTEMBER24-OCTOBER23)
Any amour du jour may have their surprising moments now, Libra. Your outreach may overreach or your sixth sense may not be totally on target. Should you try and then get rebuffed, laugh and chalk it up to a momentary lapse? Try again later. For now, allow your feeling full reign but understand that love is inscrutable.
SCORPIO (OCTOBER24-NOVEMBER22)
Certain relationships may have some ups and downs, Scorpio. But changes are what keep things fresh and interesting. What you think you may want to do in a certain situation with a certain person should be reviewed and weighed. There may be a few surprises in their reactions or the dynamic may change. It’s all good.
SAGITTARIUS (NOVEMBER23-DECEMBER22)
You will be happily surprised at how well certain work projects go now, Sagittarius. Careful planning helps but a little luck from the cosmos could help more. Plan as best as you can, map actions out and expect certain results. But be prepared for changes along the way. No matter what, keep your great sense of humor.
CAPRICORN (DECEMBER23-JANUARY20)
Sparks of genius catch fire, Capricorn. Your ability to imagine great things is unsurpassed. See how practical some of your ideas are and see if there might be a few loose ends you need to tie up before you go forward. Surprises are in store in any fun project. It increases the adventure, but try to avoid the extra work!
AQUARIUS (JANUARY21-FEBRUARY19)
Whatever family time you plan, expect some last-minute changes. Aquarians like to have things buttoned up and ready to go, but the fates may have other plans. Remain flexible and allow yourself time to relax around the house and recharge.
PISCES (FEBRUARY20-MARCH20)
Your thoughts are out there, Pisces. Your imagination cannot be contained. Allow yourself some mental space time and envision all of the possibilities while your mind is fertile. Meditate and ruminate on philosophy. The ideas that are generated not only prepare you for future success, but they can also inspire others.
