Taurus April 21st - May 20th

Pisces energy really emphasises group energy and group goals now, and before the12th many of you born after May 11^th are particularly blessed with leadership skills and friends are aiders and abetters of your energy. Before the 22^nd, love and friendship can combine.

Beware that before the 17^th when Mercury is retrograde, many of you will feel that friends are flaky and projects are delayed. After the 17^th, faith is restored.

Later in the month, notably after the 12^th for some, there is a little bit of a feeling of retreat and it is important not to sit and seethe with anger. Get it out.

Also for many of you from the 22^nd love life becomes quite clandestine.

Saturn meanwhile in your opposite sign is directly affecting those born around May 1^st and 2^nd. This is not an easy time. Others are oppressive and physically you may feel low and tired and there are indications of obligations and duties to others that need addressing. No pain, no gain. Reality checks now are ultimately for your good and the practical necessities of life are important and also recognising that the truth that you face needs acting on.

For those born April 22^nd to 26^th, Neptune is highlighting empathy, compassion and sympathy to and from friends. Your idealism and spirituality is emphasised. Emotional intelligence combines with intellect, and if born around May 1^st to 3^rd, enjoy Pluto’s newly empowered effect on your ability to reinvent yourself and to acknowledge your transformative and regenerative abilities for self and others, not to mention the positive input from higher learning and other cultures, that you are now the recipient of.

Meanwhile, be aware that Uranus’ power this month, particularly after the 22^nd is likely to impact you in a very private behind-the-scenes way and the power of your unconscious will be disruptive
