The weekly horoscope ahead is taking a turn for the dramatic due to Pluto’s connections to Mercury on April 20, the sun on the 23rd, and Mars on the 26th. Pluto asks us to change, and if we don’t, the transformative planet does the work for us (which could happen impulsively and affect us unpredictably). It helps us shed the past and grow into the person we’re meant to be. Honor the metamorphic planet by implementing change into our lives. There is a romantic spot on the 24th between Venus, Saturn, and the North Node of Destiny. This is the moment to DTR and make the relationship status official.

Taurus

April 20 - May 20

A frenemy’s social media post might evoke your jealousies. Instead of focusing on what they are doing, look at all the fantastic things you have going on. Your initial response is to attempt to bring them down by talking about their indecisions to anyone who’ll listen. Unfortunately, doing so might create more significant issues with others in your social circle. Detox the vibe by taking a long walk in nature by bathing in the forest or relaxing under the stars to let the cosmos clear your head. Regardless of what you choose, acting out is not an option. Behave yourself!

Gemini

May 21 - June 20

In the past, people have called you out for acting like the victim. This week, you are the person who is the scapegoat for other people's behavior. It might be hard for you to confront those who are putting their problems on you and blaming you for their mistakes because you would never do that to someone that you cared about. As a result, you’ll fantasize about calling them out to let them know that you're onto them. In reality, you will send a public but indirect message that gets the point across and makes them regret how they treated you.

Cancer

June 21 - July 22

With your intuition at a high, you can spot those in your inner circle who aren't treating you appropriately right away. This will cause friction in your relationships because you're standing up for yourself and have insight into their motives — which they are unable to deny because your instincts are shining light on their exploits. No cap! Set boundaries and limits to ensure they do not overstep and bring your energy down with them. Remember, you can cultivate what you want and need in your life. No one holds any power over you but you. Reclaim yours this week.

Leo

July 23 - August 22

When people try to argue with you, you do not have to fight back if what they say isn’t true. You'll know if you should put your opponent on ice until they calm down. Leaving them on read will irk them, but it's the best way for you to process the situation and comprehend the best way to move forward. TBH this is a situation that you didn't start and want no part of. Let them know that sentiment in a kind manner. It is best not to participate until they calm down.

Virgo

August 23 - September 22

You might be confused by the way your crush is treating you. They're hot one day and cold the next. Their erratic nature makes you go down a rabbit hole investigating their Instagram posts and the meaning behind their text messages. Before you spin out trying to understand them, it might be beneficial to have a conversation to check in and see where they're at in terms of their feelings for you. Odds are they’re so wrapped up in their issues and lives that they’re unaware of what they are doing. All the more reason for communication.

Libra

September 23 - October 22

Your creativity will take flight because you are a bright star and person of immense interest in your art class. Your peers are seeing your extreme talents and are urging you to have a show in which you can let everyone see your amazingness. Do not shy away from partaking in such an endeavor because the project could lead to something greater than you ever expected down the road. This is your moment to be the center of attention, allowing you to have your cake and eat it too, since you'll probably sell out of everything you put on display.

Scorpio

October 23 - November 21

If you weren't secretive and mysterious enough before this week, then you’ll be even more so now. It's not that you don't want to let people in and share your inner thoughts, but you're afraid that you'll be judged for what's in your heart. It's OK to keep matters close to your chest and to reveal emotions in their time, but you might want to give people the benefit of the doubt when they do the same to you and not to be hypocritical, rather respectful of their choices. Allow everything to unfold at the pristine moment (whenever that may be).

Sagittarius

November 22 - December 21

You're getting a little antsy since you can’t spread your wings and take off, so it's time to book a ticket or take a road trip out of town and explore new territory. Being that your intellect is also peaking, you will pick an area with a lot of historical significance, leading to knowledge and fascination with the region’s local culture. Make sure you take lots of pics to remember the experience. When you come home, you can mark it off your list and start researching the next vacay. The next time you travel, plan for the exact opposite vibe.

Capricorn

December 22 - January 19

Most people like fancy things, but know these objects do not define you. In the week ahead, you might be drawn towards swiping your debit or credit card a few times to purchase finer objects that make you feel better. You'll realize that you want to feel self-assured within a few days and materialism isn't cutting it. Money can't buy you happiness; however, you have a wonderful group of friends and support system that can help you see that you're more than the bling on your fingers. Within time, you will regain your confidence and return some of your purchases.

Aquarius

January 20 - February 18

Get ready to rumble, Aquarius. Your frustrations are escalating because your significant other is playing mind games with you. Since you're a straightforward person who stays away from drama (but no one encourages it), you'll let them know how you feel in a matter-of-fact tone, which will ruffle some feathers because the delivery might be short and blunt. You shouldn't have to defend yourself when they're treating you unjustly. After a round or two of fighting via text and tears cried on both ends, you will be on the mend, working towards recommitting — as long as they don't pull this stunt again.

Pisces

February 19 - March 20

You're on the road to healing, which means that you should take time to focus on yourself and recharge your batteries. Talking and acknowledging your feelings can be draining, especially since you are unlocking past trauma and unmasking your fears. Be gentle with yourself this week and treat yourself to a self-care indulgence that makes you feel better, like a mani-pedi or a super decadent latte with all the works. The bottom line is that you should give yourself extra love and compassion (the same you'd give to anyone else) to you. Don’t skimp on empathy and kindness to yourself.

Aries

March 21 - April 19

Your crew will be surprised when you tell them about your secret sentiments for someone special in your life. It's not that they'll discourage you from making a connection or commitment in the future, but their reaction will be one of shock because they didn't know you both were sliding into each other's DM's until now. As usual, choose the friends you tell wisely because someone could go behind your back and message your crush without you knowing to get the DL about your situationship. Being that it's none of their business, you should protect yourself before you wreck yourself.
