Welcome to your astrology forecast for the week of April 27 – May 3, beautiful souls!

　　We have Mercury switching signs on Monday, April 27 which means the planet that most heavily influences the way we think and communicate is no longer in impulsive Aries but in luxury and romance-loving yet practical Taurus (along with the Sun). We actually have a lot of Taurus energy this week with three planets in the Earth sign of dependability, pleasure-seeking, and stubbornness.

　　You may have felt a push last week, but try not to force people to go along with your viewpoint during this week because everyone is going to feel resistance to being told what to think with this independent-minded Taurian energy. Instead, focus on how you can entertain, nurture, and show your affection. Use this time during Taurus season to amplify the commitments in your life and allow yourself to slow down enough to enjoy the things that are most important to you.

　　This week’s astrology overview bodes well for romance as the Moon is waxing, heading towards the Full Moon in Scorpio next week. It’s a time of creativity and building energy to go after your dreams and what you want. So nurture those seeds of intention and follow up on them this week and you’ll likely see your wishes manifest next week.

　　Mercury makes two aspects that could affect the culture and how we allow ideas to shape our lives. Tuesday, Mercury squares Saturn, calling out the errors in the established systems or ideologies in a political showdown of sorts. Then Thursday, Mercury conjuncts Uranus, the planet of rebellion and public disobedience which will reveal the response to the truth revealed Tuesday. Finally, Venus squares Neptune at the end of the week bringing a spiritual and creative resurgence to help us find a new footing of inspiration.
