April 2017 astrology forecast

Get down to business in April, but be flexible. With so many planets in Taurus, your ability to plan is enhanced and your financial sense is boosted. But this can be a very stubborn energy too. When you start to feel stuck this month, remind yourself to go with the flow, to stay open to other methods or avenues. Otherwise, you could end up getting very frustrated. Other great Taurus themes are gardening, getting close to nature, listening to more music, and enjoying simple things, simple comforts.

Rebellion is another theme which carries over from April. A Uranus/Saturn challenge often indicates defiance and questioning authority, sometimes in a big way. This is most felt in the first 3 weeks of April. It creates a resistance to change in some people, and a huge urge for banishing the past in others. It will end up being favorable, especially if you approach your changes with logic, patience and diplomacy. Because Uranus is associated with computers, make sure to back up your files regularly, and don’t be surprised at weird computer glitches.
