Are you ready to bury the hatchet? If you are then this is the week to do it. However, you will have to be honest with yourself every step of the way. You can’t extend the olive branch with one hand and then start jabbing your finger into the other person’s chest with the other. You must accept that the time for explaining your position, airing grievances, and revisiting points of contention is over. Either you’re sorry for your part in a falling out or you’re not. This isn’t about who’s right and who’s wrong anymore. It’s about forging a truce and moving on.

Propitious Mars sextiles leading up to the Jupiter/Uranus conjunction in Taurus will result in a shower of benefits and blessings on April 20th. Think of it as a Cosmic Pinata! Yes, it took a few wild spins and blind swings to connect to your Fortune, but now that you hit your target, you can enjoy all the rewards. Jupiter and Uranus in your sign promise to bring ascendancy, recognition, and opportunities that you can build on. Your success may look like a bolt out of the blue, but you know – like anyone who’s worked hard and sacrificed – that overnight sensations are years in the making.

Recent actions may have put people’s noses out of joint so it might be wise to cool it for a while. Conventional wisdom says you always want to strike when the iron’s hot and to keep on striking until you’ve won, but this would alienate those whose support you’ll need in the future. Let everyone have time to talk amongst themselves and to compare notes. You never want to push when Mars is conjunct Saturn (April 10th) because it will only result in the other party pushing back. Adopt a laid-back approach and people will eventually come around to seeing things from your perspective.

Sacrifice is something that’s often frowned upon these days. People regard it as a sign of weakness or asking to be somebody else’s doormat. Yet where would we be if certain people didn’t make sacrifices for us in our own lives – like the parent who worked two jobs to put food on the table or the coach who put in extra hours to make sure you became a success? The Venus/Neptune conjunction on April 3rd shows that it’s your turn to sacrifice for somebody else. However there’s a twist. You don’t get to pick who it will be – which will make your sacrifice all the nobler.

Okay. Maybe it’s foolish to be infatuated, but it’s been a while since someone came waltzing into your life with all the right packaging and the labeling to go along with it. Plus, the fact that this is happening when you’re feeling at loose ends makes it even more enchanting. The lucky stars to thank are Venus in Pisces sextiling Uranus in Taurus on March 28th. Is it too good to be true? Maybe. But what’s wrong with feeling enamored? This may be just the incentive you need to take care of business, make that big move you’ve been postponing or turn over a new leaf.

Not all obstacles are meant to be surmounted or powered through. Sometimes they’re put in our way to get us to ask the hard questions. One’s mindset tends towards the negative whenever Venus conjoins Saturn (March 21); yet another planetary aspect occurring on the same day is the Sun/Pluto sextile. This gets you to examine your motivations. If you feel like you could succeed if only things were made easier, then this may be the time to seek another path. If you’re committed to improving – no matter how long it takes – then stay the course, and that obstacle becomes a threshold when you’re ready.

You may want to take some time off to reflect and ruminate with Neptune energy so prominent this week. It’s becoming increasingly apparent that your day-to-day circumstances are driving you rather than the other way around. It frequently happens with high-achiever signs like yours. But instead of fretting over new mountains to climb, how about turning your attention to your inner landscape? There are some steps you skipped on your climb up the ladder of success that you might want to circle back and check out now. This will do more than just improve your job performance – it will enrich, restore, and enliven you.

All it takes is one change to set off a domino effect. It began with the Venus/Uranus square on March 3rd and continues with the Mars/Uranus square on March 9th. Your first reaction may be to try to salvage the situation, but you’re better off stepping back and letting the Uranian energy play out. It’s bigger than you are – which is a fact you’ve learned to accept since this unpredictable planet first entered your sign in 2018. You know from experience that you won’t know what’s what until the dust settles – which should be around the 28th. Meanwhile: who knew there were so many dominos?

The Mars/Jupiter square on February 27 shows a rival at work trying to horn in on your turf. They’ll try to disguise it in “corporate speak,” but it’s clearly a hostile takeover. Your first reaction may be to holler “get off my lawn (or the workplace equivalent) but that would be as effective as a teenager scribbling “No Adults Allowed” on a piece of paper and taping it to their bedroom door. Meet your opponent’s passive-aggressiveness with some passive-aggressiveness of your own. You can speak the jargon just as well as they can – probably even better. Do this, and they’ll move on to easier prey.

People are looking for you to step down or get out of the way, but that won’t be happening. Their priorities are not your priorities, and if there was ever a time to sit down in the middle of the road and wait things out, then it would be now. It’s true you’ll have to put up with their nagging, insults, and even threats, but you were born with a thick hide. You’ve endured worse. And like a castle that’s lifted its drawbridge and drained the moat, you’ll find that your patience is longer than theirs, which will produce an eventual judgment in your favor.
