Daily Horoscopes/Astro Highlights for each Sign:

Aries

Mercury enters your sign today where it will visit until May 10th, dear Aries. You hosted this planet of communications very recently–from March 3rd to 29th–but then it turned retrograde and retreated into your privacy sector. As such, you had some mulling over, thinking twice, and processing to do. As you advance, you’re well-positioned to express yourself, make sharper decisions, and delight others with your communications. You’ll feel a nice burst of mental energy, and projects that didn’t gain momentum last month begin to move forward. A Mercury-Neptune alignment in your sign suggests you’re leading the way with a calm, understanding approach. People are drawn to you and your words or ideas. While this is a creative influence, it’s not particularly grounding. However, you are picking up a lot from what’s happening around you, and people may be talking well about you.

Taurus

Mercury moves into your privacy sector today, dear Taurus. It recently visited this area of your solar chart (from March 3rd to 29th), but, while retrograde, it returned to your social sector. Now and until May 10th, you’ll be reviewing projects, working behind the scenes, and enjoying a break from overthinking. You’ll look at life a little differently and pick up information you’ve missed in the past, perhaps while you were too busy to notice. From May 10th forward, you’ll be in a more lucid state of mind for making quick decisions and beginning new projects with Mercury in your sign. Until then, take the time to think things through. Wrapping up projects can figure strongly now. Today, a looming Mercury-Neptune alignment encourages an unrushed pace. It can be a time of sudden and possibly golden ideas. What you hear or learn can stir up all sorts of feelings and spark important realizations.

Gemini

Mercury moves into your social sector for a stay until May 10th, dear Gemini. It visited this area of your solar chart very recently–from March 3rd to 29th–before it went on a retrograde backup. With the planet of communication here once again, you’re in a strong position for networking. Pursuits you started last month now gain momentum, and you’re finding the right information to move new initiatives forward. This cycle encourages a more relaxed rapport with associates, friends, and networks. It’s also an active period for innovative and enterprising thinking. Today, you are considerably more intuitive than usual, and psychic impressions are notable. Mercury is aligning with Neptune in your social sector, sparking fantastic ideas or conversations about/with friends. Mental connections are in focus, and you can feel strongly moved by what you hear or learn. There can be some confusing elements in a friendship, but you may very well not need all the answers. You prefer to see the best in people and situations right now, at least in your circle. It’s a good day to enjoy the moment rather than entering situations with complicated expectations. Helping someone, even with encouraging words, can be rewarding.

Cancer

Mercury heads back to the top of your solar chart today, dear Cancer, where it will transit until May 10th. It was there very recently–from March 3rd to the 29th–but then retreated due to a retrograde cycle. Now, you’re in a great position to share your ideas with others, particularly in public or professional settings. You’ll gain momentum for ideas and plans that were delayed last month. You get to fill in the details for long-term goals and plans in the weeks ahead. Today is also influenced by an impending Mercury-Neptune alignment, which is excellent for a good mix of intuition and reason. It can be a time of inspiration as you bring more creativity, color, and imagination to your goals or communications. Don’t be surprised if something you say today catches on, perhaps inspiring others.

Leo

Mercury returns to your solar ninth house of spirit and adventure today, dear Leo, where it will visit until May 10th. This transit began, from from March 3rd to the 29th, but wasn’t completed due to a retrograde backup. Now, you’re ready to move forward. In the weeks ahead, thinking in broad terms helps you see the bigger picture. You’ll be expanding your mind and your interests. Sharing your ideas and beliefs with enthusiasm can also figure strongly. You seek to understand your life and the world around you. Studies or topics of interest that you may have put on the shelf last month now advance. It’s a wonderful cycle for an optimistic frame of mind. Today is influenced by a Mercury-Neptune alignment, which is good for dreaming and visualizing what you want, and the practical side of things may need some attention later. Today is more about catching inspiration or inspiring others with your perspective or kind words. You’re inclined to express your ideas with more flair.

Virgo

Mercury heads into your intimacy sector today, dear Virgo, where it will transit until May 10th. Mercury spent time in this area of your solar chart recently (from March 3rd to the 29th) but then retreated due to a retrograde backup. You can be more involved and passionately interested in your projects, studies, conversations, and thoughts in the weeks ahead. This cycle is especially favorable for consultations, research, and analysis. You’ll likely make valuable discoveries with money, debts, motivations, relationships, attachments, and personal psychology. Today, an impending Mercury-Neptune alignment helps build your faith in a relationship or your dreams. You and a special someone can be on the same page. Your fantasy world is rich right now, although there is a chance your imagination can run ahead of itself. You gain tremendous insight into others’ motives and desires, even if they do their best to keep these things to themselves. Even so, wishful thinking may come into play and color judgment somewhat.

Libra

Mercury moves back into your partnership sector today for a transit that’s active until May 10th, dear Libra. This transit first occurred very recently (from March 3rd to the 29th) but then backed up due to retrograde motion. Now and in the weeks ahead, conversations that were left unfinished may resume, or information that eluded you last month can emerge. It can be a fine time to open the airwaves with someone special. People in your life can help you get in better touch with your ideas since conversations with others jumpstart your thinking processes. Someone may encourage you to think or express yourself more fully. With the influence of a Mercury-Neptune alignment today, even though there can be something up in the air, you’re likely to accept the mystery. You might come to a happy agreement with someone, spoken or not. This can be a time of intriguing conversations or inspiring thoughts and fantasies, enhanced by letting your imagination loose. Unusual elements help strengthen a love relationship or creative partnership.

Scorpio

Mercury returns to your sector of work and health today, dear Scorpio, where it will visit until May 10th. Mercury spent time here from March 3rd to the 29th but backtracked due to a retrograde cycle. As such, plans or projects that began last month faced delays, perhaps due to missing information, and they now start to move forward or gain momentum. This cycle is superb for attention to detail. Today is influenced by a Mercury-Neptune alignment that reminds you of the benefits and rewards of your work, efforts, and routines. Work can be fun if you are allowed some room for creativity. Helping others find the information they need can be satisfying. This can be a day in which you make full use of your unique intelligence, insight, or creativity as you get the chance to apply these things. A frustrating problem can iron out or sort itself out, and relief follows.

Sagittarius

Mercury heads back into your creative solar fifth house today, dear Sagittarius, where it will visit until May 10th. Mercury was just recently in this sector (from March 3rd to the 29th) but couldn’t complete its transit due to a retrograde backup. In the coming weeks, you’ll be able to move fun projects and pursuits forward. You’ll have more confidence in sharing your ideas and thoughts with others, and you may very well stand out for your unique viewpoint or intelligence. Today, bonding with someone is likely to take place on a mental level. While it’s not a time for getting definite answers, there is so much activity, interest, and intrigue going on that you can’t help but enjoy yourself. Some uncertainty might even add to the appeal just for now as Mercury heads into alignment with Neptune. Healthy escapes can help refresh your thoughts, and interesting ideas can emerge.

Capricorn

Mercury moves back into your sector of home and family today, dear Capricorn, where it will visit until May 10th. Mercury spent some time here from March 3rd to the 29th but later backed up due to a retrograde and didn’t have a chance to complete its transit. Now and as you advances, you’ll get the opportunity to resume conversations and projects or plans with family and those related to house and home. Projects might gain momentum now. It’s an excellent time for deep thinking and renewing old methods. More activity, especially mental engagement, is likely in your domestic world. Today’s energies are good for cooperation. Something or someone can stir your imagination. You’re also likely to reminisce about the past and perhaps romanticize or glorify it a little. Leaving things open to interpretation is best now as Mercury heads into alignment with Neptune. This can also be a time when a creative idea or realization comes to you, and it’s been a long time coming!

Aquarius

Mercury heads back into your sector of communication, dear Aquarius, where it will visit until May 10th. Mercury spent time here from March 3rd to 29th but then backtracked when it turned retrograde. Now and in the coming weeks, projects you left unfinished may resume. Information that you needed to move forward arrives, and you have more time to explore personal interests you first toyed with back then. This transit creates a natural flow of learning, connecting, and communicating. Today, dreams and intuition are more pronounced, and they’re giving you meaningful messages. Your communications and ideas or musings can be especially inspired today as Mercury and Neptune head into alignment in your solar third house. With this transit, you seek and find more unique ways to express yourself, and you could find it easier to sell your ideas. If you need to look at a problem from a different perspective, you’ll find it an excellent time to do so. An idea that’s been a long time forming or on the tip of your tongue now blossoms. Conversations can be easy and even dreamy if your connection with someone is strong, and perhaps on the confusing side with someone with whom you don’t have that kind of understanding.

Pisces

Mercury leaves your sign and enters your solar second house today, dear Pisces, where it will transit until May 10th. Mercury spent time in this sector from March 3rd to the 29th but then turned retrograde and retreated into your sign. Now and as you advance, you approach your finances from a new, refreshed perspective. You might pad your income through communications, networking, sharing, and word of mouth. Instead, it could be a time to develop strong money-making ideas or pay more attention to understanding your current resources and assets. It’s a good time to get down to brass tacks planning and dealing with your practical affairs. However, today is more about imagination as Mercury and Neptune head into alignment. This transit can inspire an unusual approach to absorbing and sharing information as it encourages you to tap into your intuition and make it work for you. It’s not something that can be pushed, and you may very well need an easy, natural pace to get things to flow. You have a way with the resources you already have that brings them to a like-new state.

Planetary Positions and their Applying & Separating Aspects

The following aspects (major only) and positions are at noon (EDT) on April 16th:

Note that when an aspect is applying, it has not yet happened but is within orb – it’s pending. When an aspect is separating, it has already happened/perfected and is moving away from the aspect. Depending on the speed of the planet/body involved, the aspect will have perfected–or will perfect–in a matter of hours (often the case with the Moon), days, months, and possibly years in the case of the very slow-moving outer planets and bodies.

Note that the Moon moves at a rate of approximately one degree every 2 hours so that if an aspect involving the Moon is applying and has an orb of 5 degrees, the aspect will perfect (be exact) in about 10 hours. If the Moon is separating from an aspect with an orb of 2 degrees, it has already formed said aspect approximately 4 hours ago (since the following are positions at noon today, then it would have occurred at about 8 AM today).

**I suggest paying close attention to applying aspects. The energy of the aspect builds as it gets closer to exact. Once an aspect involving inner planets has happened, it’s over. Separating aspects are good to know for context, but in terms of energy that is with us today, applying aspects are most important. (This is the case for daily astrology influences involving inner planets, which pass quickly, and not natal astrology aspects, which are with us for a lifetime).

We are more competitive than cooperative at this time.

CONJUNCTION THE NORTH NODE Orb 2°10′ Applying

Your destiny is linked with the need to develop harmonious and balanced relationships. Relationships will play an important role in your accomplishments. You need to make sure that your need to keep the peace does not hinder decisive action.

There can be abrupt changes with money, valuables, possessions, and income that lead to a reshuffling of priorities or values. Income might come from non-traditional sources or ventures. We’re bringing progressive ideas to the world of business. New ways of doing business, as well as making, viewing, and handling money are likely.

NEPTUNE

NEPTUNE IN ARIES

(1861/62 – 1874/75) It is important to note that Neptune takes about 164 years to make a complete cycle, spending about thirteen years in each sign.

(1777 – 1799) It is important to note that Pluto takes about 248 years to make a complete cycle, spending 12 to 32 years in each sign.
