Weekly horoscope for April 13 – April 19: What the stars have in store for every zodiac sign revealed

OUR much-loved astrologer Meg sadly died last year but her column will be kept alive by her friend and protégée Maggie Innes.

Read on to see what’s written in the stars for you today.

ARIES

MAR 21 – APR 20

As Venus’ reversal spell ends, you should prepare to stand up and be counted, both in love and in life.

You have already navigated the difficult decision-making, and now it is your time to reap the rewards.

However, it is vital to stick to the passion promises you have made, particularly to yourself.

Communication coach Mercury arrives in your sign, helping you express complicated feelings in simple, direct words, while Mars ignites rich creativity.

TAURUS

APR 21 – MAY 21

The Sun moves into Taurus for its annual visit, and if you do not yet feel the satisfying energy and heat, you soon will.

Full moon aftershocks in your zone of work and well-being suggest that the least likely career or health path may look the most tempting, so make sure to pay attention.

This week is all about knowing and trusting your own mind.

Passion between long-time friends is a strong possibility.

GEMINI

MAY 22 – JUNE 21

The arrival of Mars in your communication centre gives your words power and presence, but you must use this energy or risk losing it.

Stop overthinking and let the talking begin.

Big love wishes may have seemed impossible during Venus’ retrograde, but its new positive direction can change everything.

If you are single, a like-minded local group may contain your soulmate.

CANCER

JUNE 22 – JULY 22

As Mars moves on, you will feel peace descending on your chart, particularly as, for now, all planets are united in positive motion.

This is your moment to firm up plans for passion, promotion, and power – whatever you secretly desire most deep in your heart.

Picture it in your imagination, and it can begin to manifest in reality.

Luck is represented by a gold initial, and cash and the letter “R” may combine in a fortuitous way.

LEO

JULY 23 – AUG 23

With the Sun reaching the top of your chart by the end of the week, combined with the dynamic energy of Mars settling in your sign, this could be a phenomenal week for Leos.

However, it is not a week for half-measures; you must commit fully or not at all. Surprisingly, this may prove easier than you expect.

Passion will reveal unexpected aspects of yourself, so embrace and enjoy them.

A tempting Taurus may be watching you closely.

VIRGO

AUG 24 – SEPT 22

The twists and turns of a money-minded full moon may bring challenges, but they are the kind that nourish you.

Push forward towards cash-related questions and try not to hold back.

In terms of love, Venus is back on track in your marriage zone, giving you a few clear weeks to think about wedding-related matters and ask the right questions.

If you are single, the one for you may lead a close-knit work team.

LIBRA

SEPT 23 – OCT 23

Your personal full moon illuminates a week of heart-searching, which you may realise is long overdue.

A period of simply playing along with the passion status quo is coming to an end, as you recognise a more challenging yet rewarding time ahead.

Venus is with you to support any emotional work you need to do.

Smooth-operator Mercury enhances your ability to act as a special go-between, enabling you to seek and strike fabulous deals.

SCORPIO

OCT 24 – NOV 22

As one of the few signs that can handle Mars’ fiery energy without getting burnt, you will find yourself rising to the challenge this week

You are ready to stand out in an application or interview and take a chance on an unlikely step upwards or forwards.

Big words need to be spoken or written soon.

The dreamy and steamy full moon may rekindle a dormant attraction linked to someone whose name begins with “J.”

SAGITTARIUS

NOV 23 – DEC 21

Friends may surprise you this week, and not always in positive ways.

This serves as your wake-up call to evaluate who you keep close and where you might need to establish some distance.

The Sun’s strength shifts to your working zone, empowering you to approach any task or test with confidence.

Love may feel calmer now that Venus is no longer in retrograde, but it will certainly not be dull.

CAPRICORN

DEC 22 – JAN 20

Mercury’s move to your home-based sector signals a moment of truth.

Instead of soothing situations with kind lies, you may need to shake things up with honest truths.

You will sense how much you need this and how best to make it happen.

Overall, your chart is full of positive action and glorious ideas with global reach.

In romance, a single look from someone whose name begins with “P” may tell you everything you need to know.

AQUARIUS

JAN 21 – FEB 18

Your financial senses, which have been muted since early March, are now sharp again as Venus moves direct.

You can pinpoint a perfect price and navigate all kinds of smart deals, including a workplace first.

However, save some of your unique Aquarius energy for love, as your chart is infused with Mars-driven passion and full moon mystery.

Luck is represented by block letters.

PISCES

FEB 19 – MAR 20

Venus, the planet of harmony and peace, is now taking a positive path again in your sign.

This allows you to stop making excuses for past love mistakes and start putting them right.

You have emotional courage, thanks to Mars, along with a new sense of knowing what is right, underlined by Mercury.

Meanwhile, a full moon focused on self-knowledge helps you identify and address any inner weaknesses.
