Daily Horoscopes/Astro Highlights for each Sign:

Aries
Aries
Aries
Venus heads into your solar twelfth house today, dear Aries, visiting here until May 2nd. This sector is a house of processing and digesting recent events, and it can be about shedding attitudes that are not working for you–it feels lighter once you do. Sorting out your feelings can figure strongly in the weeks ahead. This transit not only encourages an inward focus but also increases your enjoyment of the process. Jupiter is already in this area of your solar chart, and with both benefics in your soul sector, you may very well crave and enjoy private time, and certainly can benefit from it. This transit comes at an interesting time with the Sun in your sign–part of you is all out there, while another part is unattainable or private. Choose healing activities when you can. This cycle brings a little more mystery to your love life and even your feelings, which can be hard to define for now. You’re more inclined to let them flow rather than question or analyze them. You may have some soul-searching to do in the weeks ahead. There is usually good reason to take your time with matters of the heart, decisions about love, and perhaps with money during this cycle. It precedes the Venus in Aries cycle that will begin on May 2nd and bring everything to the surface.

Taurus
Taurus
Taurus
Venus moves into your social sector today, dear Taurus, staying there until May 2nd. It’s a good time for appreciating friends and networks and their appreciation of you! There can be mutual benefits with friends and a nice sense that you can be yourself with others and feel at ease. It’s possible you’re in the position to relax and take some time off from responsibilities, or you’re giving more attention to your happiness goals. All in all, the weeks ahead are strong for making connections and exploring your options. Good company may be easier to find. You might gain a stronger sense of fulfillment through activities with and for others. Today, you seek some steadiness and predictability. Conversations can be reinforcing and encouraging.

Gemini
Gemini
Gemini
Venus begins its transit of your reputation and profession sector today, dear Gemini, where it will influence until May 2nd. You can be contributing something special, and it can be an easier time for work and business-related endeavors. People receive you well or appreciate your efforts. You are also more aware of how you’re coming across, and you could do a little more posing or choosing your words more carefully than you usually would. Others are more willing to assist you with your goals. You might make significant connections and contacts. In the weeks ahead, there can be a boost in your reputation. You may be cutting deals and negotiating with more ease. Today, the Moon is in your sign, and your personal affairs are in sharper focus. You’re prioritizing emotional needs. There can be wonderful conversations with friends and promising new projects on the horizon.

Cancer
Cancer
Cancer
Venus moves into harmony with your sign today, dear Cancer, and will continue to enhance your life in subtle but magical ways until May 2nd. This transit inspires you, bringing out your natural highlights for all to see and enjoy. The weeks ahead stir your desire for more variety and diversity in your life. Your relationships may need a change of scenery or pace, or your tastes for pleasures, people, and places can be just a little more exotic or out of the ordinary. Promotional efforts or publishing can thrive. As well, sharing your personal philosophy with someone special can bring a relationship to a new level. Transits today are excellent for optimism and hope or supportive news that excites you about your future. However, the Moon spends the day in the background in your chart, and you’d be wise to rest and refresh.

Leo
Leo
Leo
Venus heads into your solar eighth house today, dear Leo, and until May 2nd, you’re in good shape for sorting out issues with money or power dynamics. With Jupiter already in this sector, you’re likely to find quite a bit of enjoyment in research, investigation, analyzing or getting to know yourself, looking for clues and hidden aspects, and intimate relationships. You find it easy to attract support if needed. This cycle favors working on the more complicated or intricate areas of relationships, sharing, and intimacy. It’s also encouraging to get close to someone or spend extra time on a project or venture you love. This transit does run alongside the Sun’s transit of your adventure sector, and while you’re seeking more experiences in general, you’re taking your private life more seriously. Focusing your love and energies can be especially attractive and rewarding during this cycle. Today’s transits are more outgoing, however, with the Moon in your social sector and Mercury doing well in your spirit sector. There can be good news or conversations that inspire you–it’s a time of big ideas and creative vision.

Virgo
Virgo
Virgo
Venus moves into your partnership sector today, dear Virgo, encouraging a pleasant focus on your relationships in the weeks ahead. This cycle lasts until May 2nd, and it can bring happy or helpful people into your life or boost current relationships. You are open to conciliation and compromise, and you can learn something inspiring about yourself through another’s eyes. Feedback can be most helpful. Partnerships and situations that involve one-on-one contact can thrive at this time, particularly with Jupiter also here, bringing rewards and benefits–you can experience more joy in your relationships. You’re in particularly good favor for research, learning, and sharing ideas today.

Libra
Libra
Libra
Venus begins its transit of your work and health sector today, dear Libra, where it will stay until May 2nd. The weeks ahead are strong for bringing more harmony, enjoyment, and even aesthetic appeal to your daily life and working environment. Restoring balance to working relationships can be in focus, and perhaps some social opportunities through your work or daily routines can emerge. It may not be the most productive transit, but it serves a special purpose, as it boosts the enjoyment of your work and chores. Jupiter is already spending time in this area of your solar chart, and adding Venus to the equation adds more joy and benefits to wellness programs. Seek ways to bring more peace, warmth, balance, and beauty to your daily affairs. Today, you gravitate to activities that expand your mind.

Scorpio
Scorpio
Scorpio
Venus moves into harmony with your sign today, dear Scorpio, moving into your solar fifth house for a stay until May 2nd. It’s a fine time for personal magnetism, enjoyment, and popularity. Flowing, attracting energy is with you in the weeks ahead. It’s a potentially fantastic period for self-expression, creativity, romance, children, entertainment, and other channels through which you express your need for play and reinforcement. A gentle approach in these areas of life is the most successful one now, although this dynamic will change somewhat when Mars enters this same sector on the 14th. You’re bound to find more enjoyment in leisure activities and hobbies. Venus awakens your more creative and romantic urges. Today, you’re in good shape for considering new approaches, methods, and ideas that can improve your life, starting little.

Sagittarius
Sagittarius
Sagittarius
Venus enters your solar sector of home and family today, dear Sagittarius. In this cycle that lasts until May 2nd, you can find more enjoyment in your personal life or improve the harmony and balance in your domestic world. It’s also quite wonderful to connect with your own heart and explore your deeper needs. Often, this cycle is fortunate for real estate, property, or home-related matters. It can be a time for investing in your comfort, home, and safety. Making your home or base of operations more comfortable and harmonious can be a satisfying focus in the weeks ahead. You could be spending more time doing familiar things, helping you center yourself. Today, communicating and sharing ideas with someone special can be satisfying.

Capricorn
Capricorn
Capricorn
Venus enters your communications sector today, dear Capricorn, and will visit this house of your solar chart until May 2nd. The weeks ahead can be active for making happy and beneficial connections or enjoying learning and personal interests. There can be pleasant communications or new and improved ways to connect, get around, and reach out. You seem to draw in the right situations, people, and things to you that improve your daily life. Improved verbal rapport with others and joy in your daily affairs can figure strongly. You’re in perfect shape for expressing yourself and satisfying your social curiosity. The smoothing-over powers of Venus are with you in your communications, and there could be some good publicity or news and greater ease in your social life during this cycle.

Aquarius
Aquarius
Aquarius
Venus moves out of your sign and into your resources sector today, dear Aquarius, and will stay there until May 2nd. This cycle is terrific for enjoying what you have or what you’ve recently built. It can be a steadier period for your affections, perhaps because you’re more interested in getting comfortable than seeking out new experiences. It’s a time for seeing and appreciating your efforts, and this transit reminds you to enjoy a state of content from time to time! Fortunately, you’re skilled at making the best of your resources during this cycle. With love, friendship, and even pastimes, you’re looking for familiarity and security. You’re attracted to comfortable things, people, and situations in the weeks ahead. Today, you readily see your way out of a problem or understand a matter more clearly, which comes as a relief.

Pisces
Pisces
Pisces
Venus moves into your sign today, dear Pisces, where it will stay until May 2nd. This transit helps you feel comfortable in your own skin–you more readily attract what you want into your life. You’re also freer with your feelings during this cycle. It’s more natural to pamper and enjoy yourself, and you can be clearer about what you love! You radiate good energy, attracting positive feedback. In the weeks ahead, you’re shining brightly with Venus enhancing your natural charm and personal appeal. You can use your charm and personality to get a little more from life than you usually do. Today’s energies are suitable for seeking some mental refreshment. At the same time, the Moon spends the day in your sector of home and family, and centering yourself with familiar activities can be one way to refresh yourself.

Date & Time: Apr 5 2022  0:00 am

We are attracted to new ideas, but we need to discriminate more so that we don’t become too scattered. Communications mean more to us than usual.

Date & Time: Apr 5 2022  5:23 am

Event: Tr-Tr Mon SSq Mer

Description: Transiting Moon SemiSquare Transiting Mercury

What feels right clashes with logic today. What people are saying may be a misrepresentation of their true feelings/emotions. It’s better to think before we speak, or misunderstandings can follow. 

Date & Time: Apr 5 2022  7:52 am

Event: Tr-Tr Mon SSq Pal

Description: Transiting Moon SemiSquare Transiting Pallas

We may be concerned about what others are thinking of us now, and can be sensitive to negativity and criticism, or what we perceive as such. We might not understand one another, and can be at odds with one another on a mental or intellectual level. Someone’s belief or idea can make us feel insecure or out of sorts, or otherwise rub us the wrong way.

We can derive a nice feeling of satisfaction and fulfillment from tending to our responsibilities, work, or other commitment. We are more able to make sacrifices or put our emotions aside in order to get something important done. Alternatively, we can bring more sensitivity to our practical affairs. This can be a good time to commit fully to something – especially health and healing matters. It’s also a strong time for taking care of domestic matters.

Behavior and desires are at odds with our higher goals. We might take on too much now, or our impatience can interfere with success (haste makes waste). In order to take advantage of new opportunities to achieve our desires, we have to let go of some wilfulness and expectations.

LUNAR PHASE: CRESCENT

Moon 45 to 90 degrees ahead of the Sun. 

This is an eager, impulsive, and progressive time. We are motivated and ready to take on challenges.

Planetary Positions and their Applying & Separating Aspects

 

The following aspects (major only) and positions are at noon (EDT) on April 5th:

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).
