Weekly Horoscopes April 23–29
Tell us what you want, what you really, really want, astro babes. This week finds the lacy-hearted planet of abundant pleasure, Venus, slipping into Gemini’s butterfly wings on the 24th and a lusciously underwordly full moon in Scorpio on the 29th. It’s a moment for strapping on your headlamp and shining your love beams straight into the well of your deepest desires.
The combined energy of Gemini and Scorpio is a curious one and asks us to get slumber-party playful about what’s truly feeding us right now. What flavors feel fully filling and what simply doesn’t whet your appetite anymore? What are you itching to try that you haven’t given yourself permission to sample?
Smoke out any sense of shame and get dazzled by whatever you’re loving right now, regardless of how it fits into preconceived notions of what you “should” want. Touch it all, taste it all, and cosmically crave it without equivocation…

Rallying Cry:
My inherent life force fuels my partnerships.
Power Moves:
This is truly your lusty birthday-cake week, Taurus, as the full moon illuminates everything there is to celebrate in your partnership zone. Can you look upon every shade of your experiences in relationship and withhold any value judgements for the moment? Resist the urge to deem your actions, or those of others, as good, bad, or in-between and focus instead on what makes you light up with excitement, no matter what shape it takes. What makes your heart race with anticipation and exhilaration? Start there and know that from this seat of fiery life force, all else will follow.

Rallying Cry:
Responsibility can be expressive rather than repressive.
Power Moves:
This is a workout week for you, Gemini, as the full moon asks you to level up your daily routine and step into even more of your prowess as you handle the seasons of your life with aplomb and newfound maturity. There may be some hesitation here as your historical relationship with responsibility can sometimes feel like cut and run. Can taking on new tasks and missions feel sparkly and dazzling instead, Gemstone? If anyone can infuse the mundane with magical dust, it’s you, winged creature. Light it up as you step toward your legacy.

Rallying Cry:
Living with longing unlocks my true passion.
Power Moves:
Consider the uses of desire this week, Cancer. Could it actually feel deliciously juicy to inhabit the space between the wanting and the getting right now? You’re poised on the threshold and ready to reach out and grab it as the full moon illuminates your zone of ripe treats and playful passions. Grow down, sweet Cancer, and consider yourself to be a kid awaiting Christmas. Make your list, check it twice, lay out the iced cookies, and then just wait for the treasures to come on down the chimney.

Rallying Cry:
My magic is ready to come through the open channel.
Power Moves:
You are alive and buzzing this week, Leo, as the full moon ignites your zone of deep-down desires and creative births. Let this be an internal time if you need to as you reconnect to your private passions and get ready to line up creative projects with the anticipation of a party planner. In every creative birth, we reaffirm our right to be magic vessels who both receive the inspiration and alter the course of its energy because of our specific flavor and texture of personhood. Reach out your arms for the lighting strike, Leo, and let this newfound inspo course through your veins.

Rallying Cry:
When I exfoliate the old stories, I find my true song.
Power Moves:
Write yourself a love letter from a future you this week, Virgo. Tell the sweet being you are right now everything this futuristic version of yourself forgives. Everything this person is up to and excited about, even if it may seem lights years away from your present experience. The full moon’s illumination of your arena of perception and perspective gives you the celebratory chance to change the course of history, and it starts with how you’re narrating your right here, right now and using energy to catapult yourself toward the place you want to be. You can interrupt your played-out songs powerfully and immediately, Virgo. Be your own DJ and decide exactly which knobs to turn on and turn up.

Rallying Cry:
I reaffirm my right to be here.
Power Moves:
Have you started to feel deeply confused about your mission, sweet Libra? Like you’re floating on in foggy skies and have come unmoored from any sense of original purpose? This full moon returns you to the seat of yourself with powerful immediacy and asks you to examine where you feel like you’ve lost connection with your right to be here. When we believe we have this inherent right to exist, we can trust fully in our ability to get rootsy and take up space without having to ask anyone’s permission. Feel into your underground sources of supply, and make like a tree, Libra. Your deservedness and place on earth are as natural as the sunlight and air.

Rallying Cry:
I stake my territory with a tough and tender heart.
Power Moves:
As this full moon marks the territory between yourself and others, you’re drawing some lines in both the steel and the sand, Scorpio. Consider both where you could shore up some boundaries that have become too soft and where harsh fences might no longer be serving your heart’s evolution. It doesn’t have to be black and white, all or nothing right now, and you’re primed to consider the benefits of mixing colors and savoring the gray. How can you stake your claims without having to completely shut out or shut down? Your kingdom is yours, regardless of the moat’s fortifications.

Rallying Cry:
My power source courses far beneath the ground.
Power Moves:
Dream it bright and beautiful, Sagittarius. This week’s full moon slides into your mystically magical zone of surrender and sweet visions, and you’re connecting the unseen dots to divine your true purpose. Trust that you’re exactly where you need to be, and release any sense of needing to know it all right now. There are connections being made in your world, even as you sleep, Sag. And none of the so-called work has to even find you breaking a sweat right now. Take it easy and let yourself be taken away by your own secret siren song, wild pony.

Rallying Cry:
When I change my mind, I change my course.
Power Moves:
As the full moon magnifies your zone of future dreaming and scheming, this is a leveling-up week in your consciousness, Cappy. You simply cannot keep yourself contained in the same old way and not suffer the consequences. The delicious news is, you’re absolutely ready for this upgrade in thought patterning, and it’s primed to blow the lid off the tight little boxes you’ve used to reduce certain projects and people to controllable building blocks. There’s a wilder playroom awaiting you, Capricorn. And you’re ready for an extended recess where you don’t have to blow the whistle on anyone, least of all yourself.

Rallying Cry:
I savor the time it takes to grow my crystals.
Power Moves:
This is an empowered week for you, Aquarian rebel, as the Scorpio full moon sets off the boardroom self-sufficiency of your competence zone. You’re itching to break out and get on top, and by all means, you should find lots of juicy outlets for this primal force. While you’re at it, though, consider the uses of time, space, and slow-grown, home-cooked evolution. There are so many sweet things in this world that can only truly be savored after an exquisite effort has been exacted. No one can take your place. No one will steal your project or partner. Delight in constructing something of epic proportions, step-by-step, with no sense of scrambling.

Rallying Cry:
Stepping back onto dry land doesn’t mean disconnecting from my feeling source.
Power Moves:
You’re on the move this week, Pisces, as the full moon ignites your zone of adventurous unfolding. Put the top down and the pedal to the metal as you fly forth and let the winds of change catch your wild locs. This unfolding is happening with regard to your own emotional life, and you may feel like your usually emo self has been sped up, helium-style. Can you bear witness to these rapidly shifting emotions without having to constantly be at their mercy, chasing down every last one? Treat your inner-sanctum sensations like a rainforest territory fit to be explored. Savor cycles of wetness, dryness, and everything in between, and use every last emotion as valuably curious information rather than cause for a full-scale meltdown.

Rallying Cry:
My eternal flame endures when I rest with my emotions.
Power Moves:
As the full moon dances into your deep-diving emo zone of intimacy and intensity, this is a week for getting touchy-feely with what scares you, Aries. And while you’re built for battle in the external world, these quieter, more underground sensations sometimes leave you fearing what can’t be actioned or efforted. There is so much coursing through your internal landscape right now, Aries, and you’re being asked to sit with the sensations and let them change you. Trust that this is truly an upgrading of your warrior skill set, fire babe, and accept the challenge to confront your emo demons with innocence and exuberance.
