April 5 Birthday Horoscope

The Year Ahead

Forecast for April 2007 to April 2008

Fortunately, a grand trine between your Sun and Jupiter and Saturn is formed around the time of your birthday this year, suggesting a period of constructive accomplishment ahead. You are practical, realistic, and your judgment is especially sound when it comes to your overall life objectives. At the same time, you actually derive much satisfaction from practical accomplishment. The key to harnessing this wonderful energy is to identify and find pleasure in the simple things that make you happy.

Work you have done in the past begins to pay off this year--not necessarily in dramatic ways, but in small, measurable ways. You may be recognized or rewarded for the efforts you put forth. Because you project a more responsible and credible “you”, people in authority are more inclined to appreciate you and recognize your work. This is a year in which you put your life in order in some significant manner. Improved concentration, a more realistic outlook, and a practical awareness of the limits of time all help you to make steady progress, particularly in your career. Your concern for your future this year is stronger than usual, and you may find that projects you start, or investments you make, will benefit you for years to come. Problems are easier to resolve this year. Your social life will likely increase and bring you into contact with more influential, powerful, or simply happy and helpful people. Travel opportunities are likely.  It is not uncommon to marry, have children, graduate college, increase income, do freelance work, get a promotion, publish a book, or receive public recognition under this influence. Matters related to universities, higher education, organized religion, publishing, legal affairs, and foreign interests proceed smoothly. This is an excellent year in which to seek advanced training or to further your education.

Mercury, the planet of communication, squares Jupiter in your Solar Return chart, suggesting that you are inclined to attach greater meaning to your experiences. A tendency to overstate, and to neglect important details when making plans, is strong. Again, opportunities for travel and/or new learning experiences abound with this influence. Mercury sextiles Venus, adding charm to your style of communication.

Venus forms tense angles to Saturn and Neptune, affecting either your finances or romantic relationships, and possibly both areas. Uncertainty in either of these areas is a theme, but this does not necessarily point to financial or romantic losses, by all means. It might point to, for example, a variable income that goes with the territory of self-employment, or a relationship that isn't quite as settled as you'd like it to be yet. Saturn asks you to be responsible, hard working, dutiful, and serious when it comes to finances and/or romantic relationships. Neptune, on the other hand, places a veil over your eyes, and seduces you into believing what you want to believe rather than what really is. You need to assess areas of your life that have become dysfunctional and, in the process, you may need to sacrifice a material benefit for a spiritual good (or vice versa). You are learning a valuable spiritual lesson that will help you to put your priorities in better perspective. This lesson may come in mysterious ways. Spiritual, artistic, or musical endeavors can provide a welcome relief. The final outcome will be a more serious and responsible attitude toward your own creativity and spiritual development.

Mars sextiles Pluto around the time of your birthday this year, stimulating your ambition in a pleasant manner. You are determined to meet or exceed your goals.

It's easier than ever to focus your attention on issues that matter this year. As a result, this is a year in which you can get yourself together and on the right track. Meeting and exceeding your goals is favored. Your romantic life is bound to be busy but perhaps complicated as you sort out the difference between reality and your ideals. Travel and education figure strongly in the year ahead.

2007 is a Number Nine year for you. Ruled by Mars. This is a year of completion and transition. It is a time when we need to let go of things that no longer serve their purpose, and hold on to things that have a future. It is a time of cleaning out dead wood, not necessarily for new beginnings. It can be a time when a burden has been taken off your shoulders, and it can be a year of giving of yourself. Advice - let go of things that are holding you back, give of yourself and express your sympathetic, compassionate side.

2008 will be a Number One year for you. Ruled by the Sun. This is a year of action. The seeds you plant now, you will reap later. Others might find you less sociable, as you are busier than ever and you focus on your activities and your needs. Still, you are outgoing and your initiative is stronger than ever. Advice - Stand alone, take action, start fresh, express independence.
