FORECASTS

  
APRIL/2009 - SUN SIGN FORECASTS


ARIES:
Relationships with loved ones and friends are especially good now. You are able to share openly with others and experience mutual appreciation and respect. The love and good will you share with others may also lead to a pleasant gift or other unexpected benefit. Beware of a tendency to be too lazy to take advantage of some of the enjoyable and beneficial occasions that are available at this time. It is good to relax and enjoy yourself, but becoming a "couch potato" may not be the best way of doing this!

Taurus:
The emphasis is now on long-range financial planning, thinking about future security, and formulating strategies to achieve your ambitions. Your ability to study quietly, to concentrate on complex mental work, and to think deeply about serious matters is much better than usual. This is a good time to organize your affairs and also to seek professional advice about your concerns. Try to do as much as you can on your own without trying to force others to agree with you or join you.

Gemini:
At this time you are attracted to foreign cultures and art forms and to people and experiences that are different from anything you've encountered in the past. The exotic and unknown have much more appeal to you than the familiar. This is an excellent time for a vacation, particularly if you can travel to someplace you've never been before. Also, sharing and comparing your spiritual, religious, or philosophical interests with a friend or loved one may open up a whole new dimension of your relationship.

Cancer:
You find it stressful to balance needs for freedom and independence with needs for love and intimate companionship. You really behave quite oddly or aloof right now which will put others off considerably thus affording you the space you need, but at a cost. You are also attracted to the exotic, offbeat, unusual, or bizarre at this time. People or things which might offend your senses at other times now arouse your appreciation and interest. This will not be a boring time if you can help it! But it is apt to be a tense time if you are in a close, bonded relationship.

Leo:
You feel the desire to make several minor, but significant, adjustments in your work. For example, if you are engaged in a business activity, you may discontinue some advertising, use new sources for various services that you use, assign new tasks to employees, change advertising to appeal to a new market, make changes in the product line, etc. The worst mistake you can make at this time is to procrastinate and not act on your ideas! At this time you have an excellent sense of balance and proportion and how to efficiently meet goals and objectives, and you should utilize this sensitivity to improve upon existing situations.

Virgo:
This is an excellent time to eliminate whatever is unnecessary and outworn in your life from clutter and disorder in your environment to an unhealthy relationship or even a long-held attitude or belief which keeps you from going after what you really want in life. You are also more perceptive than usual. You see other people's true colors more clearly and you may discover a secret or the hidden aspect of some situation.

Libra:
You need other people's ideas and opinions now. A significant personal encounter or confrontation occurs today. You cannot, and probably will not want to, be alone now. This is a time to reach out to people and to get others' input or counsel. Listen to your mate or a friend who can enlighten you at this time. Also, consulting a professional for health, business, or personal reasons will be very constructive and fruitful now.

Scorpio:
You have an urge to be more committed, loyal and dedicated to your mate or
marriage partner. If a difficult situation arises in your relationship now, you will probe beneath the surface to find the underlying problem. Superficial relating will not satisfy you. Instead, you search for depth and deep involvement with your partner. This is a favorable time to heal any resentment or jealousy that has previously plagued the relationship. With little effort, you and your partner can effectively achieve greater emotional intensity and passion during this phase.

Sagittarius:
Minor adjustments or changes may be necessary in work-related, business, or creative matters in order for you to make good progress. Perfecting or fine-tuning your skills and mental capabilities is a must at this time. Try not to waste your energies on nonproductive or inefficient work practices and avoid a tendency to bottle up your creativity. To accomplish your goals, you may need to rebuild your confidence and regain a sense of organization in your daily affairs and work patterns.

Capricorn:
Your feelings of love may be somewhat reserved, modest, and unobtrusive at this time. Differences may develop over personal plans or financial affairs in a close association or romantic relationship. You might have to work extra hard when playing the role of peacekeeper or negotiator in solving problems with a lover, mate, or friend. It may help to relieve existing tension by discussing things on a less emotional level. At this time, you may feel that you do not have a clear understanding of where you stand with a partner or lover on important issues, such as financial, commitment, or security needs in the relationship. This can also be a difficult period for furthering creative plans and ventures. Close associates are not likely to be cooperative or you sense that your talents and abilities are going unnoticed.

Aquarius:
You will want to express your most favorable side to your mate or marriage partner. You are more apt to seek romantic and domestic security and encourage more cooperation and equality in the relationship. The behavior and actions of your mate or spouse may influence your own personal affairs, and you find yourself acting out a role which suits your partner's image. You should be especially careful not to let your mate take advantage of your good nature and sensitivity.

Pisces:
You may need to concentrate more diligently on work at this time. Your performance can be lacking in both focus and inspiration because of confusion or anxiety about your work obligations. Other people may attempt to undermine or frustrate your efforts, leaving you prone to deception and disappointment at work. You may discover you are sacrificing your own personal interests with regard to your work or intimate relationships. The reverse is also likely, as you might choose to retreat from heavy responsibilities and commitments and take a more emotionally detached or aloof approach to your work or
personal relationships.
