Madame G guide to the stars WEEK OF APRIL 9

Print

On April 8, prepare for Last Quarter Moon. According to Café Astrology, “the Last Quarter Moon is exact when the Sun in Aries forms a square with the Moon in Capricorn.” This often leads to a crisis of conscience. Madame G suggests drinking chamomile and mint tea (for the indigestion). All things come to pass, even a quarter life crisis or whatever applies to you.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

One failure does not in turn make you a failure. It sucks to miss a shot. It’s worse not to try. You may feel down in the dumps for a time, as you recover and that’s understandable. But, don’t stay down for too long. In fact, the best thing to do when you fall off the horse is dust your pants off, check for injuries, and get right back on. You can do this. GO!

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

So, is there a hole in your head? If there is, feel free to rush to the emergency room. If not, what are you really worried about. It’s easy to get lost in the minutia of everyday life. But, that doesn’t mean you should or can avoid thinking about the big picture. Every day is precious. Every day is finite. Everyone dies. Are you living a life worth living? If not, why not? No excuses.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

What goes up must come down. You can’t avoid this. Our emotions even drive us towards these extremes—they’re not unique to you. However, if you find yourself too far down for too long, you don’t need to suffer. It takes courage to seek and ask for help. Everyone has their challenges and this may be one of yours. Whatever the case, you’re worth helping. You’re not alone.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

You can’t control others. It may seem like you have power and influence (and you may) but you really can’t dictate what people do. Before exposing everyone else, you should think about yourself. Do you have all the answers? Maybe there are people with unique life experiences who could help you discover something great. It’s worth a try. You may learn something awesome.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

What’s up pussy cat? So, you’re slowing down for a bit. Well, that’s all part of the ebb and flow of life. You can’t run at full power forever. There must be a break of some kind. You can take precious moments to reflect and appreciate. You may also take time to study, learn, and discover. All of this is part of the journey that makes living such a rewarding experience. Keep trying.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

You haven’t hit the end yet. You haven’t even begun to get there. You’re barely starting out. That’s terribly exciting. You have no idea what new adventure awaits just around the corner. You can do anything you put your mind to and you’re capable of so much more than you’ll ever imagine. Keep up the good work and the rewards will follow. God speed!

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct.22)

One closed avenue simply leads towards another path. Stop looking outside of yourself and start looking inward. You can do anything that you set your mind towards. It’s not impossible unless you give up hope and stop trying. In fact, if you put a little effort into trying and learning you can reach more people than you ever dreamed. Stop hiding behind perfection and live!

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

So, you have a twinge of regret. Good! It means that you tried and either failed or took another direction. Don’t get stuck! If you want something start going towards it. You don’t have to stop until the fat lady sings! Now is the time for reflection and contemplation. You can’t keep going through the motions. You must take swift and careful action, but think before you act.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

What will the morning bring? You never really know. You can keep living in the half-assed existence of “barely there” attitudes or you can take a stand. You don’t need to hide yourself, but you should consider taking more of a starring role in your life. If this is your life, then you should play the lead and not the back up. Don’t stop yourself.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

You have lots to do and so much on your mind. You may think that the answer is always definite, but it’s usually not. Fear is the greatest crutch against doing what’s right. You may think you’re “too” something, but even you know that’s bullshit. You’re never too old, too young, too smart, too dumb, or too whatever to live as you’ve always wanted. Do it now.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

You’re leaving on a jet plane…And it’ll be one crazy adventure. If you’re not sure where you’re going, well you’ll find out. Your sense of order might be offended by the swift exit, but you realize that it’s important for the journey. It teaches you what you’ve always needed to accomplish all that you can—spontaneity. It’s not a crime. It’s fun. GO!

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

If at first you don’t succeed, try again. Or do something else. You don’t need to limit yourself to one thing. It’s great to think about the world at large and do what you’ve always wanted to do. But sometimes you must live your life in order to be who you want. You may want to write about the world, but you need to have experiences in order to do that. Keep trying!
