Your Weekly Horoscope for April 24–30, 2022: Eclipse Season Begins!
Early on, Mercury in Taurus will square Saturn in Aquarius and sextile Neptune in Pisces. Tense and unrelenting, the fixed square causes a stalemate between the bullheaded mind and the master malefic. Communicative tension may arise regarding long-term plans, leaving the comfort zone, and assuming responsibility. Compromise is possible, thanks to the Mercurial-Neptunian sextile. Neptune’s elusive energy can easily glide in, alleviating the square’s fixed tension by offering a more optimistic approach. Just be mindful of Neptune’s ability to distort information!
A few days later, Mercury will sextile Jupiter in Pisces, harmonizing the mind with the master benefic. Jupiter expands upon Mercury’s conversations and mental agility with unbeatable elation. Any mental stressors from a few days ago subside as the sextile infers idealistic, futuristic thinking. But be mindful that Jupiter’s expansive qualities do not blow things out of proportion.
Venus will also conjunct Neptune in Pisces during the sextile, implying that the minor benefic and creative mystic are in total alignment. Neptune radiates with Venus, creating a higher octave of effortless love and beauty. Hopeless romanticism glows compassionately. Fantasies of the perfect relationship and aesthetic are at the forefront of everyone’s daydreams. Although beautiful, this energy can be highly fantastical. So, be mindful of having an overly rosy view!
Later on, Mercury will trine Pluto in Capricorn, suggesting easygoing harmony between the bullheaded mind and the CEO of the underworld. Pluto can turn mental Mercury inside out, causing the collective to thoroughly examine each idea, belief, and conversation with a magnifying glass. Unexpected truths may come to light through Freudian slips while the mind gawks during intense revelations. Remember that knowledge is power, so try not to show all of your cards at once!
Finally, Venus conjuncts Jupiter in Pisces, aligning the two benefics! When these two meet up, it is impossible to feel anything but fanciful. Whimsical and amorous, the energy is perfect for showing your love. Express how much you care about others through art, poetry, music, and more. As your heart overflows with a fondness for others, you will feel abundant in love.

Slowly but surely, Pluto retrograde will redefine the power of Capricorn in each person’s life!
