Your Weekly Horoscope: A Timely Surprise Comes Your Way

April 22 – April 28, 2019

Uh oh. There’s a special alignment in the stars this week that’ll bring a whole bunch of fortuitous and totally weird events. The sun moved into slow, predictable Taurus two days ago—but as it lingers dangerously close to Uranus (planet of change) until midweek, unexpected events could be a key feature over the next seven days.

This lively aspect might bring about refreshing encounters, small amounts of money out of the blue, or unforeseen opportunities. While these surprising moments may seem small at first, but they could blossom into something bigger over the coming weeks and months.

On Tuesday, Venus (planet of pleasure) aligns in lively Aries with Chiron (planet of spiritual healing), which could encourage feelings of vulnerability when it comes to starting something new. This can be an opportunity to reflect on why you’re feeling the way you do. Insights can encourage seeking the right kind of help and advice.

On Wednesday, Pluto (planet of transformation) turns retrograde in the sign of Capricorn, and remains so until October 3. This encourages looking within to those buried feelings that may be a cause of hidden suffering. Over the coming months, releasing these can offer a new lease on life.

Finally, a muddled Mars-Neptune transit this weekend—bringing together the planets of action and illusion—suggests something may not be as it seems.

Here’s how the planets will affect your sign this week.

With an unpredictable vacation invite heading your way this week, it’s best to say “yes”—even if you’re not exactly up for it.
