Highlights of the week April 24 through April 30, 2023 with horoscope for 12 zodiac signs.
Dear friends, there are practically no significant astrological aspects this week. And this is good! We will be influenced by the events of past periods, which means there will be nothing unforeseen; we will have a regular working week, which in itself has become a rather rare occurrence. Well, Taurus season is in full swing, and the springtime magic this zodiac sign offers is perfect for boosting the efficiency of everything you do. But carry out your mission with the utmost care! Fastidious Mercury has us in sight for its first retrograde period in 2023, and this will also be the first week fully subject to its retrospective influence.
Aries week horoscope April 24-30, 2023
Dear Aries, you are a person of character, with both passion and many passions. In your hectic life, you have repeatedly tested the limits of the possible and wondered how to achieve the maximum possible. And yet, if lately you have been holding back your impulses, then on April 27, during the first quarter of the moon in your fifth house of love and glory, Aries can go all out, turning out the brightness settings of their personality as much as possible. Yes Yes! You have earned your right to brag. And yet, in doing so, you motivate others to be better and strive for more, so this is not just bragging. However, this aspect is not only aimed at this. If you are a typical Aries, then you are probably the leader in your group, and having reached the maximum of your capabilities, now is the time for you to transfer the reins of power to someone else, or, for example, choose your deputy from your inner circle, transferring part of your powers, and so on.
Also, since the 5th house is about romance, this aspect should help Aries build relationships in their personal lives. For example, if you're in a long-term relationship that seems a little stagnant or if you're avoiding dating, then you should take action this week to get your clock moving in the right direction.
Do not forget that this week the impulsive Mercury is in a retrograde position in the II house of money. So, if the question of purchasing some high-value items or incurring large expenses arises at this time, it would be prudent for you to put it all on your wish list without making a real deal. In fact, in this position, Mercury advises Aries to audit the available resources. Mercury retrograde always looks more backward than forward, so you may already have a worthy replacement for your planned purchase.
Taurus week horoscope April 24-30, 2023
Dear Taurus, this week we are not going to have a lot of aspects, but the impact of the previous periods will be very significant. On the other hand, the first quarter of the moon on April 27, settled in your cozy fourth house, encourages Taurus to turn their eyes to their home and family. Is everything okay in your immediate environment? Does your home and loved ones contribute to your recovery from righteous labors or only deplete your energy reserves? If all is not as good as you would like, then this week is your chance to correct some of the things that make you avoid returning home after a day's work. The first lunar phase usually does not imply any significant changes, so most likely we are talking about a small rearrangement or a heart-to-heart talk with one of the relatives. In any case, it should be something that will streamline your interior space or restore harmony.
By the way, this week's actions to restore harmony and establish connections with loved ones have an additional reason. Since last week, dodgy Mercury has been in retrograde, moving backwards in your zodiac sign, bringing Taurus even more attention to people from your past. However, Mercury will remain in this state until mid-May, so this is not the exclusive prerogative of the current period.
Retrograde Mercury draws the attention of Taurus not only to past connections and relationships. In the professional realm, your sign should also delay starting new projects; instead, Mercury invites you to look around and analyze the resources available. It may turn out that you have enough strength and ability to start a new business without resorting to outside help.
Gemini week horoscope April 24-30, 2023
Dear Gemini, most of the trends that are taking place this week depend on the events of previous periods, such as the start of the Taurus season, Mercury's retrograde, and other aspects. Thanks to them, some active processes in the life of Gemini will be paused or significantly slowed down. The Sun and retrograde Mercury, acting together in your 12th house of the subconscious, will force the representatives of your sign to peer into their past more often. And since no one can help you on this journey through the depths of self-discovery, Geminis will have to become their own mentors and take responsibility for making responsible decisions. Feedback from your inner world is very important because it helps you make informed decisions, but it also distorts your sense of self, impulses, aspirations, and even the warning signals of your inner voice.
April 27 is the time for social re-sorting! On this day, the first quarter of the moon in Leo activates your III house of friends and acquaintances in the inner circle. Very handy! Spring is blooming, and you, dear Gemini, are falling in love with friends and acquaintances! It's not that you're superficial; you're just admiring your surroundings by following the spark. Of course, this applies more to free people. Older people will be closer to questions of a business nature and relationships within the team. You, like others, will be happy to participate in projects organized by the most charismatic members of your team. On the other hand, this will not prevent you from looking under the surface and possibly discovering discrepancies with the stated goals or, for example, some personal secrets of interested parties. What to do: We are all fallible, and we are not all sinless. In any case, this is not a reason to despair or abandon the commitments made. In the end, any inconsistencies are opportunities that can be put to good use. The main thing is not to rush; choose the right moment for their publication.
In terms of creativity, Gemini's imagination will be at its fullest this week. Whatever you undertake, any creative undertaking will compete like never before. As soon as Gemini is left alone with their thoughts, ideas about how to succeed in the business that they have been working on lately come to them. However, this is more about ideas and concepts and less about the implementation of the plan. What you should not do this week is try to find meaning in everything that arises in your head. In other words, do not rush to analyze, but write down and record everything that comes to mind.
Cancer week horoscope April 24-30, 2023
Dear Cancers, how balanced are your expenses and income? No, nothing serious or dangerous awaits you this week. This week, there are no special aspects at all that can drastically change the life of your zodiac sign. However, on April 27, the first quarter of the moon will illuminate your II house of finances and economic stability, introducing excessive emotional coloring into this area. Nothing like that; now there are not even signs of either a sharp improvement or a sharp deterioration. But if you're feeling overly nervous this week, it's the last purchase you made on impulse, not out of necessity. The universe does not yet call you to universal asceticism, but at the same time, it indicates to Cancers that they should be more careful, especially in the evening, especially with discounts and online stores. Buying stuff you don't really need is the easiest thing to do now.
On the other hand, Cancer may have gone to the opposite extreme this week, squeezing their hard-earned money between their claws too tightly. But then, what's the point of working hard if you don't allow yourself to enjoy the fruits of your efforts? Well, there is only one way out of such a situation: to correctly balance expenses and incomes, fixing the budget for purchases, entertainment, and profits every day.
In relation to the professional sphere, Mercury will play the first violin. By the way, this is the first full week that the planet of communication will be completely in a state of retrograde while being in your sociable XI house. The hard-working Cancer has always been difficult to persuade to go hang out in some "vile" place, and with Mercury retrograde, this will be almost impossible. But you know what? Work is not for everyone a 100% part of their life. There is a good chance that your busy schedule is undermining team spirit, making it difficult for your colleagues to be effective.
Leo week horoscope April 24-30, 2023
Dear Lions, Are you ready for a makeover? Of course, the most important aspects of the planets passed last week and the week before last, which, however, still have a strong influence on you. And yet, on April 27, the first lunar quarter will illuminate your zodiac sign, balancing and changing the internal state of your sign and slightly pushing Leo to bring its external image into line. However, due to retrograde Mercury, we advise you not to make sudden movements. You should not do anything drastic, but it's time to update your wardrobe. The weather is changing, and with the seasons, you are changing! In fact, during the period of the first lunar quarter, small changes make a big difference.
If your attention is focused on work, then remember that your ambitions and plans are not a straight road but a curved path with stops and obstacles. This is a lengthy process, in which it is sometimes wise to pause for periodic re-targeting. This week will be the first full week in which Mercury is retrograde all the time in your X House of Career and Business Reputation. And in this sense, the Lions should put aside their tools and return to the drawing board for a while, checking the work done. We understand that it can be frustrating for a success-focused sign like Leo to take a step back! So look at it as an unavoidable necessity, which will also help you identify weaknesses, reduce production costs, increase profits, increase visibility, and so on.
Virgo week horoscope April 24-30, 2023
Dear Virgo, your glass is half full! This week there are no significant planetary aspects, which means your life in this time period will be more influenced by the events of the previous period. However, on April 27, the first quarter of the moon will be in Leo, illuminating your 12th house of healing and completion with its soft light and healing your old wounds. In principle, nothing much will change with this aspect of the night star, except perhaps your attitude toward the events taking place around you. In short, everything will be easier! And just in time, by changing your attitude, you seem to be reborn, easily accepting in your heart the naturalness of what is happening. This emotional self-cleansing can be very relevant, especially if you have recently been embroiled in an argument with someone who was once a key figure in your life. Thanks to the upcoming events, you will completely get rid of the influence of this person in your life. Now that you are completely free, you are happy about it and feel great.
On the other hand, things can be more confusing in the realm of love interests. Your pathological dependence on a loved one at this time can create chaos in the life of the Virgin. By constantly justifying the destructive behavior of your passion, you do not help either yourself or your soulmate; you are only drawn deeper and deeper into the quagmire of contradictions. Perhaps for you, there comes a moment of key conversation in which you need to discuss your future together. And remember, no amount of support will help you overcome difficulties if you yourself are not ready to do the hard work of sorting out the accumulated problems.
Don't forget, all this week Mercury will be retrograde in your all-encompassing IX house of global adventures. Most likely, this means that there are no literal adventures ahead at this time; however, you will hear many stories and learn many possibilities about how and where you can go at the first opportunity. Save your energy; Mercury will remain retrograde until May 15th. Until that day, this will be a great time to plan a trip and dream about a future vacation.
Libra week horoscope April 24-30, 2023
Dear Libra, Are you not yet tired of being such a charming and pleasant person for everyone who will transfer the old woman across the road and embroider on a sewing machine? Yes, maintaining such an image is a real job that will have to be monitored 24/7! So much to do and so little time! Well, this week, there will come a moment when you can reconsider your attitude toward literally everything. On April 27, the Moon in the first quarter phase will illuminate your XII friends and social contacts, sending a signal to Libra that they should be picky about how and with whom you spend your free time. You have friends, colleagues, close friends, relatives, and just acquaintances. Which one gets the lion's share of your attention? Are you kidding yourself by giving preference to those who are not willing to sacrifice their time in return?
Don't forget, this week will be the first week that Mercury will move in a reverse retrograde direction. Carefully! Mercury will be in Taurus and your 8th house of intimacy, passion, and transformation, which in its retrograde effect can be perceived as revenge and jealousy. Libra should beware, but also be careful in relation to loved ones. During this week, strong feelings and emotions will arise, sometimes beyond the bounds of decency. Is it worth it to respond to the attacks of a loved one? This will most likely turn you into a villain or a villainess. And if malicious actions come from outside, then your answer will only provoke the offender. Therefore, do not rush to answer; act strategically.
Closing in and withdrawing from yourself is also not the best option. Since your passion-charged eighth house is in the crosshairs of Mercury, lovers' fights can become confusing and relationships strained. Be condescending to your partner; make him or her indulge, realizing that he or she is also going through a difficult period during the retrograde period. The simplest signs of attention at this time for Libra can mean the difference between a breakup and future happiness.
Scorpio week horoscope April 24-30, 2023
Dear Scorpios, this week you continue to race towards your success! During the whole week, there are almost no important aspects, and therefore the trends started the day before will prevail. And yet, in your relentless, purposeful pursuit of your goal, when was the last time you stopped to catch your breath and check your watch? To do something similar, this Thursday will be the time. On April 27, the first quarter of the moon in Leo will sparkle in your ambitious 10th house, urging Scorpios to pause and assess the situation. Perhaps you are not moving in a completely optimal direction; perhaps the sight is shot down; or, for complete success, you are missing some little thing. In any case, the moon, teetering on the verge of phases, will highlight the best path for you, going strictly between stability and the possibility of global dominance.
If you are an employee, then this is the time for you to tell the decision-makers in your organization about your latest achievements and victories. Give a presentation, make a graph of the effectiveness of your actions, discuss production tasks for the coming period, and so on. In general, everything gets noticed. Firstly, they can really take note of you, and secondly, the current phase of the moon, with your active participation, will help to make adjustments to the work schedule, which will help raise enthusiasm in the team.
We also remind you that the period of retrograde Mercury is in full swing. And by the way, this will be the first week completely under his control. This time around, outgoing Mercury is in Taurus, your 7th house of committed relationships, forcing your mind to increasingly turn to the closest relationships you've had in your life. You can even say that this week will be a period of reviewing your relationships in general as well as finding ways to bring them all back into balance.
Sagittarius week horoscope April 24-30, 2023
Dear Sagittarius, more and more prey is falling into your wide-spread trapping nets, and therefore no one needs to cheer or inspire you for new adventures. However, by using broad front tactics, do you stretch your flanks too much, losing and dispersing your forces? The question is not idle. On April 27, the first lunar quarter in Leo activates the IX house with its rays, expanding your horizons more and more. So in effect, it will be a call to pause, evaluate resources, and prioritize before a decisive offensive. This lunar phase is able to give you balance, on the other hand, without limiting your potential in any way. Consider all options and communicate more, especially with people who know the world and have traveled a lot. Do not be limited by geographic boundaries, barriers, or any other restrictions. Think and dream big. Soon you will have opportunities, thanks to which you will be able to translate into reality much more than you could ever imagine.
In the meantime, one should take into account the fact that Mercury is moving in the opposite direction, having begun its retrograde movement last week. Mercury's retrograde position is another reason for Sagittarius to take a cautious approach to everything you do until May 15th, when this planet moves back into direct motion. But while Mercury is moving against the grain in your 6th house of work, duties, and health, Sagittarians will have x-ray vision that highlights problems in the big picture. In fact, this is a normal gift of every period of Mercury retrograde, so analyzing the data and assessing the situation during this week can give you completely unexpected results. It might be added that insight is the key word for this particular Mercury retrograde, so do your due diligence, especially in the problem-cluttered areas of your life.
Capricorn week horoscope April 24-30, 2023
Dear Capricorns, if you don’t want to miss something important, then try this week not to believe everything you hear and not take absolutely everything at face value. On April 27, the first quarter of the moon in Leo illuminates your 8th house of mystery, intimacy, and spiritual transformation with its soft light. Starting from this moment, restless thoughts can keep you awake at night, disturbing the peace and harmony of your usual existence. It is very possible that in your rush to achieve what you want, you could easily lose sight of something important. Therefore, the Moon in the VIII house advises Capricorns to stop for a moment, take a breath, and look around. If you feel that you are missing something important, do not dismiss these thoughts; try to figure out what the matter is, paying attention to every little thing. Get ready for anything! What you may discover may be so shocking that it will change your entire worldview. However, just for these purposes, the first quarter of the lunar phase arises; it is designed to restore the lost balance, including when you build illusions that do not really exist and due to which you make the wrong choice. Now everything is not as it seems, especially with regard to transactions of a material nature and legal issues. Be several times more careful than usual.
However, this week, the next lunar phase will not be the only aspect forcing Capricorns to consider every little thing under a magnifying glass. Remember, Mercury has been going retrograde since last week and will stay there until May 15th. By the way, this makes the current week the first period that is completely under the scope of the retrograde position of the planet of communication. In relation to your sign, Mercury moves through the 5th house of love, passion, and glory, which will undoubtedly give your words firepower. Well, your balanced zodiac sign is rarely accused of being too dramatic, but this week, thanks to the reverse movement of Mercury in your 5th house of passion, you may well be the best dramatic actor. At least in your inner circle. Of course, sometimes it is useful to give vent to accumulated emotions, but remember that not all of your attacks will be appreciated by the public. Remember to leave an emergency exit open in case someone decides to throw rotten tomatoes at you.
Aquarius week horoscope April 24-30, 2023
Dear Aquarius, so much has happened in your life over the past month that you may have missed what is happening right under your nose. How are your relationships with relatives, colleagues, close friends, or loved ones developing? What are these relations leading to, and what are their future prospects? On April 27, Aquarians won't have the patience to sit back and do nothing as the first quarter moon in Leo activates their 7th house of serious relationships. As always, in aspects related to the moon, emotions and sensitivity will go off the scale. Therefore, the first thing that can be advised is to remove emotional barriers before everyone is ready for this big unity! Although unity is a strong word, it is rather an attempt to adjust your emotional state to the mood of others and to bring your interests to a common denominator. What you can achieve right now may not be a firm decision about your ultimate future as romantic partners, friends, business partners, and so on. This is generally a complex and ideally unattainable process. Firstly, you will not be able to influence the desires of other people, and secondly, you will not be able to change or remake them. This is impossible! What then is the point, and what can be done? Well, the first lunar quarter is designed to harmonize the existing imbalances, which, in the case of representatives of your sign in the current moment, are related to a serious or committed relationship. To put it simply, you do not need to change either your partners or yourself; you need to change your attitude toward the ongoing processes. To put it even simpler, Aquarius needs to understand themselves and, for example, accept that in addition to their own desires, there are others whose desires may not coincide with their own, even for the person they consider the closest.
Also, don't forget that this week Mercury will be retrograde throughout your 4th house of family values, so you won't be able to take your attention away from home. This aspect can also affect the showdown between close relatives, pulling out old problems and grievances into the light of God. Although, in most cases, all this will be insignificant, these problems will weigh on your conscience until you pay enough attention to them.
Pisces week horoscope April 24-30, 2023
Dear Pisces, if lately you have been delaying the start of certain actions, each time finding another ridiculous reason, then this week all excuses will end. On April 27, the first quarter moon in Leo brings harmonizing vibrations to your 6th house of order and efficiency. Don't delay; deadlines are up! If spring cleaning has been delayed, then it's time to run your finger over all surfaces, wash windows, collect winter clothes, and throw out unnecessary ones. Despite all your sentimentality, one day you will be delighted with the feeling of your home's renewal and transformation. Open the windows and let a fresh breeze into your home; the earthly energy of the 6th house beckons you to go out into the fresh air. Embrace spring in your heart and your home!
Is your work schedule full of things to do? If you need to catch up on work, edit, or prepare presentation materials, don't put it off for a minute. Even a few hours this week dedicated to reorganizing and streamlining your daily tasks will help Pisces regain the edge they once had.
Among other things, focusing on restructuring your schedule or, for example, the workplace will allow you not to get involved in squabbles and showdowns with others. Remember, this week Mercury will be retrograde in Taurus, which corresponds to your 3rd House of Intimacy. In other words, attempts to drag you into a showdown over the affairs of the past will continue all week. Try not to get involved in them. To avoid emotional outbursts, focus on your own tasks and still-unresolved problems (there is always something like that). When you need to get emotional or just speak up, choose your audience wisely, preferably outside the workspace.
