Libra Weekly Horoscope | April 8 – April 14, 2024
A solar eclipse in that part of your solar chart that pertains to partnerships and open enemies leaves you questioning whether one has become the other? Take marriage for example. A spouse may start out as the love of your life, but if your relationship sours then they can become unrelentingly vindictive during a divorce. This can apply to love, business, or a creative collaboration. In any case there’s a way to sever ties without getting nasty and that depends on what you propose. You know this person’s standing is weak so being generous when you don’t have to be will go a long way.

Is someone thwarting your every move or does it just feel that way? It’s hard to tell when Mars conjoins Saturn in your sign. Pisces tends to see the world synchronistically. What’s happening on the inside often manifests itself on the outside so it isn’t easy deciphering if your unconscious is trying to tell you something or if circumstances really are intolerable. The best way to deal with this energy is to ask. That way if someone really is trying to hold you back, you’ll find out why and then you can decide if this is something you want to put up with or not.

Mercury’s retrograde motion combined with a Mars/Saturn conjunction at the top of your solar chart warns against jumping the gun. The whole point of perfect timing is in being able to read what’s going on and choosing the right moment to act. Needless to say, this week is not the right moment. There is such a confluence of contrary energies at work that nothing sustainable can come of this cosmic admixture. Wait until Mercury comes out of retrograde on April 25th. That may seem crazy given what’s going down but many minds will change and those in the lead will have lost it by then.

As an Aquarius, you possess the unique ability to step outside the moment and review a situation remotely. This comes in handy this week when all the Chicken Littles will be racing about declaring that the sky is falling. It’s not, but you’ll need to keep your cool while everyone else is losing theirs. It looks like you may be facing a financial predicament stemming from the fact that someone who promised to deliver decided to renege. The Stars show you remedying matters, but there will need to be some fundamental changes moving forward – and your success gives you the clout to make them.
Read MoreSolar Eclipse in Aries | April 8 – April 14, 2024
This is the first Solar Eclipse in the zodiac sign of Aries since 2006. This is especially powerful because the Sun is exalted in Aries and the eclipse itself will be taking place at 19 degrees Aries β the degree of the Sun’s exaltation.
Solar Eclipses traditionally spelled trouble for monarchs and other public figures but over the years they’ve taken on a more consciousness-raising aspect because it’s during a solar eclipse that we recognize the need to get right with heaven.
In ancient times this was a call to repent because people often blamed themselves for the Sun disappearing from the sky and, like with any crisis, it was only by promising to be good that the Sun would be restored again; nowadays eclipses are more about finding your way back to the path you should be on.
Whether you’re slightly out of step or wildly lost will become clear on April 8th. Moreover, given the sheer determination and grit of Aries, there’s no denying that you will do everything in your power to rectify your course.

This week proves revelatory when you see someone who’s always practiced supreme self-control β blow it. Maybe they waited too long to exercise their prerogative or suffered from a last minute bout of cold feet; in any case they’ve lost their lead and won’t regain it soon. So what can you take away from this? It doesn’t matter how accomplished, experienced, or clever somebody is β everyone is fallible. Put this revelation to use by easing up on those expectations you burden yourself with and regarding mistakes as stepping-stones rather than setbacks. After all: how will you ever learn from your blunders if you don’t make them?

You’re not one to ask for favors. If anything, it’s other people who come to you with their requests. And given the way you’ll drop everything to help out, you probably don’t realize how much goodwill you’ve earned over the years. On April 6th, you learn that someone you assisted in the past is in the unique position of helping you to achieve a long-sought goal. Don’t be shy. Think of this as redeeming mileage points in a frequent flyer rewards program. Not only is this person happy to repay the favor, but they have some great ideas about how to capitalize on your efforts.

You may think everything’s signed, sealed, and delivered but retrograde Mercury says not so fast. Did the other party actually sign? Did you seal the deal or just talk about it? And as far as delivered: are you actually holding said object in your hands? Things have a tendency to go right to the brink and then pull back when Mercury turns retrograde in Aries so it would be a good idea to bird-dog all sales, tweak pitches, and spearhead enterprises from April 1st to April 25th. People may accuse you of being too hands-on, but better to be sure than to be left hanging.

Decisions aren’t going to sit easily with you during this time that Mercury is retrograde (April 1st – April 25th). You will be constantly second-guessing yourself, making up and unmaking up your mind, and even revisiting matters you regarded as final. However, treating things as up in the air isn’t the worst way to get through the next three weeks. It gets you to focus on things in the moment and to be open to other approaches. Yes, it could prove befuddling, but then again this Mercury retrograde may bring a refreshing change of pace and the kind of spontaneity that’s been missing for years.

Beware false starts and premature endings when Ruling Planet Mercury turns retrograde in the last degrees of Aries on April 1st. You may think you’re out of the woods but that’s wishful thinking. Mercury retrogrades are famous for tossing monkey wrenches into best-laid plans, but they can also bring unforeseen opportunities if you keep an eye out for them. Traveling back over recently covered terrain may reveal something you overlooked before or being forced to shoulder an obligation again may prove to be the very bane that turns into a boon. Who knows? You will when Mercury comes out of retrograde on April 25th.

Usually, you’ll sound off about the latest outrage. Never one to sit on your feelings or apologize for your colorful opinions, you’re the first to let everyone know when you don’t like what’s going down. Sagittarians have never been the silent, long-suffering type. However, this week will be different. Whether it’s the realization that you’d only be throwing gasoline on the fire or that other people have much more at stake than you do, your unexpected silence speaks volumes. You never thought that not saying anything would be so powerful, but it bestows a certain kind of gravitas. It’s something to think about moving forward.
