“Hi Michael, my Reading with you went so much deeper than I imagined it would. It helped me to see and understand myself and many more aspects of human nature, and this has served to free me tremendously, releasing old beliefs no longer needed, so that I can be lighter, more aware and more receptive… In deep gratitude.” ~ Denise
Tip of the Week:
​​

Mars entering Leo this weekend, on April 17/18 is among the bigger news. It was already in the sign of fun, games, play, performances, drama, and heroes for a couple of months from early November 2024 to early January 2025. During this time, the U.S. election was decided, inspiring aspirations for a revolutionary recovery process.

But the real down and dirty work has been while Mars was in Cancer, where it can be described as ‘the renovator’, at best, especially the process of clearing the deadwood, the old infrastructure…

Mars in Leo is more fully symbolic of the creative, building process that follows.

The Sun entering Taurus on April 19, followed by the New Moon on April 27, will synchronize with this next major phase of rebuilding, which is what Taurus especially symbolizes. Together, this Taurus and Leo combination can prove extra productive, and this is what will be pretty much on most people’s minds, whistling engaging tunes while getting ‘er done.

Weekly Horoscope:

Aries (Mar 21 – Apr 20)

Mars in Leo will prove especially stimulating for you as it amplifies the Sun in your sign in its final days. Then, as Taurus time begins, you will feel called to make each step count. Ironically though, it may still not be time to launch into major endeavors due to Venus and Neptune in Pisces. So, steady as she goes is probably a good plan. Play now, launch later.

Taurus (Apr 20 – May 21)

​This Mars transit through Leo will put you to work. The focus could perhaps especially center on your home front. Either way, you will probably be in the mood to tackle new projects. Since you are probably already busy on a variety of fronts, however, you are probably wise to carefully weigh the time and energy expense before you take on too much.

Gemini (May 21 – Jun 21)

​Mars through Leo will likely boost your energy levels, noticeably. Yet, the Sun in Taurus cycle will lead you to whatever retreat, peace and quiet mean to you. Positively, you will find yourself in a creative mood, as within your studio, study, or workshop. Creative progress and perhaps even breakthroughs might be achieved.

Cancer (Jun 21 – Jul 22)

Leo can be described as your personal wealth and treasure trove of talents sign. Mars there will ignite your ambitions to invest in any which way that makes sense. Advice from friends in this regard could prove helpful and welcome. As ever, consider multiple baskets for your eggs and whatever else you have to leverage your profits.

Leo (Jul 22 – Aug 23)

Mars in your sign will amplify your energy levels, determination, and resolve. It represents a big opportunity for you more than any other sign. With the Sun entering Taurus, associated with your career and public status in general, this opportunity could be harnessed for recognition, promotion, and popularity, especially as May begins!

Virgo (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

Mars through Leo could prove quite productive for you. It generally indicates working behind the scenes. There is a marked opportunity to benefit from training of some kind, with emphasis on practical skills development. Sun in earthy Taurus aligns well for you, supporting a wider vision and a willingness to be adventurous yet guided by realistic strategies.

Libra (Sep 22 – Oct 22)

Leo is your friend sign and is also associated with your sense of individuality. Mars in Leo tends to trigger a rebellious push, which could have mixed results with others, yet leave you feeling more aligned with your truth. The Taurus factor could go either way, positively supporting your ambitions, yet could trigger a dry spell, so use it to plan now and execute later.

Scorpio (Oct 22 – Nov 21)

As one of the four Fixed Modality signs, shared with Taurus, Leo, and Aquarius, it might be apparent that with all three activated by current planet cycles, you are experiencing the push to make solid decisions that you can support with determined actions. Positively, Mars in Taurus will give you added career drive, and the Taurus factor will stimulate practical engagement.

Sagittarius (Nov 21 – Dec 21)

Leo harmonizes with your sign in a big way. Your aspiration for truth can be accurately understood as personal truth, at least at the initial stages. It requires self-honesty, which requires courage, and that is what Mars in Leo can be harnessed to achieve. The Taurus factor is inviting you to anchor this strength into your daily focus.

Capricorn (Dec 21 – Jan 19)

Mars in Leo for you equates to ambition. It is the slow but sure kind that is guided by common-sense perspectives going forward. The more committed you are to progress, the better, but this does not necessarily mean that the ends justify the means, which can be understood as the attitude of fanatics and tyrants. A steady, patient, faithful flow is the key.

Aquarius (Jan 19 – Feb 19)

Mars in Leo can prove to have an edgy effect, especially on relationship fronts. The question to ask is: how can you make this work in your favor? With the strong influence of Taurus bringing emphasis to your home and living and environment, and given that the winter clean-up and planting season is upon us, in that order, it can prove to help your productivity.

Pisces (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

Mars in Leo for you can be translated to indicate work, or the extra efforts required to get the job done. So, it can prove extra industrious for you too. The emphasis on Taurus implies multiple projects or fronts, so managing your time well will prove extra satisfying. So, set some ambitious goals and be willing to do what it takes to achieve them.
