NR8 DIRECTORY APRIL 2021

Stars for April 2021
Flavour of the Times
Personal and emotional weirdness is very much favoured as the Spring gets under way. The responses we make in
the light of the mental health issues that we have dealt with under lockdown are likely to surprise even ourselves and
they are accelerated now by the fiery Aries energy. So we can expect some very odd things to happen. It may be a
fractious, hurt, angry and maybe even depressed early April until Taurus comes into play, leading to things such
experimental art, love at first sight, stock market volatility – all sorts of things! Paradoxically, usually stable people
may rebel and erratic people may settle down. Hard to tell which: neither or both?!
The above may affect you particularly strongly if your sign is Aquarius, Leo, Scorpio or Taurus. I can only give very
general advice in this column but to really understand what this means for you on a personal level in the next 12
months, there really is no substitute for having a personal astrological consultation that is completely specific to you
and your life.
Chart readings with me begin at £67 and last for an hour on Zoom or Skype.

Aries
You may find yourself doing some things that are a bit out of
character at this time but you are even more determined than usual
to do things you own way and you will very likely surprise people
around you by really digging in your heels if you feel thwarted. The
brakes seem to be off and there is no stopping you at the moment.
Taurus
The main question now is whether you are in the right mental place
to take advantage of the diversity of possibilities on offer now. You
may be inclined to be a bit rigid and not that flexible so please look
outside your comfort zone at the new moon in mid April before
committing yourself to a course of action that could leave you feeling
disappointed that you did the wrong thing.
Gemini
The renewed social life you are desperate for is not quite there yet
until the end of May but when you get there, you may find you are no
longer attracted by many of the things you enjoyed before. On the
other hand, there are all sorts of new possibilities that may start to
present themselves to you but you have time to experiment now
before the pace speeds up.
Cancer
May is going to be better for you than April this year, especially in
your work-life. The pace is fast and varied this month but this may
not compensate for the feeling that your inner needs are not being
met and may actually be ignored. This may cause you to really
question what you are getting out of your present circumstances but
Mars in your sign now may make you react too hastily and over
emotionally which won’t improve matters at all.
Leo
Saturn may be holding you back but at least it’s stopping you from
making mistakes! Jupiter, on the other hand, is not doing you too
many favours for a good while yet because it means you are
spending too much time on overinflated ideas and exaggerating how
easy they are to achieve. Pride may have to be swallowed in the
face of demands for a reality check!
Virgo
You seem to know what needs to be done, while a lot of other
people’s minds are on other things, so now is the moment to get
started. Projects, particularly those that are imaginative and novel,
can be started now and these can be successful as you go through
April into early May so start preparing the ground early. The real
measurable progress will take place later.
Libra
Single-mindedness is favoured in April so you may struggle because
you don’t like not having many different options to consider. But life
is faster moving now that there may not be time for such detached
considered thinking. You are being forced to choose when you
would rather not but once you have done, and you put one foot in
front of another, you will find that the road looks a bit easier than you
feared.
Scorpio
You may become very aware of toxic and unhealthy relationships in
your life at this time and buried destructive feelings that may have
been suppressed for a long time may bubble up to the surface now.
You may feel pushed to the limits in these relationships but
ultimately this is a good time for working through such issues and
facing them squarely.
Sagittarius
You usually have a strong sense of personal direction but the impact
of Uranus constantly seems to be disrupting things you have
arranged and frustration mounts, especially in early April. Luckily
your mutable nature allows you to adjust to changes taking place in
your everyday life so you will probably stay one step ahead of the
game.
Capricorn
The disruptive influences all around you seem to be affecting your
most important personal relationships now so a change of
perspective and some practical measures are required to meet the
challenges that others are forcing you to face. That’s means just do
something that demonstrates your sensitivity to the situation.
Aquarius
The battleground is still the old versus the new and you are still in
the thick of it. The speed of change in ideas is relentless and the old
well-trodden paths are not much use to you now. It may be enough
to repackage what you believe deep down but you should also
recognize the possibility of more radical changes being necessary in
how and what you think.
Pisces
Between the devil and deep blue sea might be where you feel you
are now. April urges instant action and initiative but this is likely to
leave you feeling frazzled and stressed with no vision you can cling
to in sight. There seem to be no anchors as the things you have
taken for granted are all up in the air and you remain confused and
uncertain. Keep things as practical as a Pisces can….
