Today's Horoscope for Thursday April 18th
Close relationships will be more heated than usual. You are cross with companions who are acting unfairly and appear to be getting away with it. When you decide to take a stand you will be clear and cutting. It's important to get the right kind of contact with friends because you want to bounce ideas off them for the future. This is your time to set the agenda for the next 28 days and they can help you sort out your options.
The Weekly Outlook from 15th April
You certainly have no intention of doing anything strenuous this week. Your tendency will be to smooth over problems rather than face up to difficult people and get a grip on things. If there are tricky situations around, you will be taking the diplomatic route to finding an answer. Loved ones and close social mates have been getting more of your attention and affection of late, but you also want to be around more casual acquaintances later in the week.
Your Monthly Horoscope for April
With plenty of chances to shine in the spotlight at parties and with loved ones rallying round, you'll be in your element for three weeks. Enjoyment, entertainment, sport are all high on your priority list and you'll be demanding what you fancy. An amiable mood at home and within the family will make for relaxing and indulgent moments when you slow down enough to put your feet up. Improving the d�cor will also grab your attention since you'll want beauty, elegance and colour around. Not that everything will be possible since a couple of financial dilemmas will need to be resolved before you go throwing money around. Save where you can and try not to get overly obsessed by always being in control. Your lucky touch will pull a few rabbits out of hats by mid month and you'll be on your way. Later you'll be balancing duty with pleasure, work with indulgence since you won't escape a pile of chores but there'll also be a stream of fun social invitations. Close partners won't always be calm so you'll need to keep the peace.
and Next Month's Horoscope for May
Sorting out the nitty gritty and dotting i's and crossing t's isn't exactly your strong point, but needs must for a few weeks as practical matters take up your attention. Your personal finances will benefit, not spectacularly but modestly, from a steady approach. Putting as much attention to staying fit and healthy as you do towards the chores will help to keep you buzzing along. Close partners will be wound up and raring to go and they will also be argumentative so you'll need to keep the peace. Throwing your energy behind their schemes in a co-operative effort will pay dividends and save wasting time on bickering. Over eating could be a minor hazard after mid month as you'll be tempted by richer and sweeter food. Try not to get obsessed when a financial or emotional dilemma appears to have no solution. If you keep pushing and use your ingenuity, then eventually you'll make headway. In the final days close partners will be prepared to lend a hand and more support.
Year Ahead 2019
With lucky, expansive Jupiter, your ruler, in your own sign for eleven months, you'll have moments of soaring confidence. Better relationships in general and resources coming your way are the gift of Jupiter, and also the message that what you give out comes back to you ten-fold. For all that you'll be preoccupied with tedious matters like money. Tightening your belt and cutting out indulgences will need to be the order of your budget as you instil more order into your finances with an eye to your longer-term security. It'll take perseverance and grit to move ahead with your plans but where there's a will there's a way. At work you'll notice a new spirit of defiance as you opt for a niche where you can follow through on your own ideas and not always be feeling others' instructions. You'll want to spread your wings and be free to suit yourself which may cause a few waves, but you won't care. Where health is concerned, you may be a touch nervy or highly strung so finding ways of winding down and re-centring will help your physical stamina. At home there may be a few muddles or disappointments since not everything will be coming up to expectation. Try to accept that perfection isn't possible and reality takes a bite out of every dream. Be happy with what you have and be forgiving if loved ones are sometimes preoccupied or evasive. Finding a new way of sharing, caring, relating and co-operating will be key to the second half year with the Cancer Solar Eclipse shining a light on all joint ventures, financial and emotional. Old habits die hard so it won't all be easy but if you can make a super-human effort to change then you'd find more fulfilment and satisfaction as the months go on. Money will finally start to come in faster towards the year end, setting you up for a more prosperous 2020.
