CR Times Horoscope – Apr 1st to Apr 7th


	ARIES March 21 – April 20 Intuition plays a big part in this week’s events. Using this gift will keep you ahead of the pack at work and certainly will help you complete an important project mid-week. Passion can also sizzle at this time but this can lead to emotional pressure building up. Find a creative outlet rather than exploding-this may involve a compromise in some fashion. Understanding the motivation of others is a powerful tool. Use it.
	TAURUS April 21 – May 21 This week is about making realistic choices-both in terms of work and relationships. Being enthusiastic without a true direction could result in you overextending yourself emotionally, monetarily and physically. Your challenge is to keep your expectations balanced and to recognize that not every option is possible. Being honest with yourself could lead to a positive outcome late in the week.
	GEMINI May 22 – June 21 The focus is on practicality this week. You may find yourself being pulled in several different directions that will require you to be adaptable and diplomatic particularly in business or career matters. Be mindful of “shooting from the lip” as more attention is being paid to your words than you might be aware of. Use your gift as a “fact collector” to gain knowledge on a matter that could benefit you in the near term.
	CANCER June 22 – July 23 This week is all about finding a place-physical, emotional and spiritual-that you can truly call your own. Examine your inner emotions to learn what will truly provide the security that you seek. (Hint: it’s more than material goodies). Use those internal foundations as building blocks to construct a model for the future. Remember that the first step in discovering where to go is to acknowledge where you have been.
	LEO July 24 – August 23 Finding creative ways to work with existing financial limits will pay off this week. There is an amount of risk, especially in the middle of the week, but as long as you can keep your perspective and avoid the excess drama, the rewards are there for the taking. It’s also important to set aside some “play time” in order to recharge your mental and emotional faculties. You may just discover one of your “brain children” is ready to fly.
	VIRGO August 24 – September 23 Health issues are a prominent theme this week. The key is to look beyond the physical aspects to see if there are mental or emotional issues that impacting your energy level more than you might be willing to acknowledge. Allowing yourself to get caught up in work-place politics, especially mid-week will only add a level of stress that you don’t need. Remember-don’t sweat the small stuff and that most of it IS small stuff.
	LIBRA September 24 – October 23 How you respond to external opposition in the areas of money and career is more important than the content of your response this week. Even if the facts are on your side, it is necessary to temper your frankness and to approach the issue in a more diplomatic manner. Remember not to take out your frustrations on your partner-their perspective can help guide your energies more effectively now.
	SCORPIO October 24 – November 22 It’s all about money this week. Right from the start issues are in a state of flux that can leave you feeling powerless. As hard as it is, you have to set aside your pride and allow others to help. The key is making certain that you respond in a controlled manner to these events. This is part and parcel of a major shift in your course that requires you to use your senses and psyche to chart the next move. Do so.
	SAGITTARIUS November 23 – December 22 Trying to focus on doing “the right thing” especially where romance is involved will be difficult at best this week. Allowing the passions of the moment to carry you into an intense situation could have unpleasant consequences and emotional storms. The challenge is to remember that what you want (or think you want) is not truly what you need. Mid-week could reveal truth to you in a harsh manner.
	CAPRICORN December 23 – January 20 This is a good week to assess where you are in working towards your long-range goals. The major challenge is not to allow your dedication to achieving those ambitions to add unnecessary stress that could actually slow down your progress. A perceived power struggle needs to be resolved by the end of the week to keep from being a long-term distraction. Remember authority is a double-edged sword.
	AQUARIUS January 21 – February 19 Personal connections-both in business and social matters will make this a lively week. You may discover a surprising synchronicity at week’s end that certainly ties up a lot of the emotional loose ends you have been dealing with. A romantic connection is also very likely at this time. What makes this different is that the two of you have shared hopes for what the future holds. Dare to dream-tomorrow is waiting.
	PISCES February 20 – March 20 Romantic issues will show up unexpectedly throughout this week. Sudden attractions may not be all that they seem. What lies beneath the surface is what you need to discover. Late in the week be prepared for some additional stress brought on by trying to push the proverbial square peg into the round hole. If you can avoid the pitfall of self-pity, you can begin to make some order out of the chaos of the moment.
