Horoscope For April 9, 2024 — The Moon Enters Taurus
The Moon enters the sign of Taurus bringing gentle energy into our lives after an intense Aries solar eclipse.
We need breaks sometimes, and the Moon entering Taurus after the powerful Aries New Moon solar eclipse on Monday is exactly what the week requires. This day brings with it all the satisfying energy of restfulness and peace. We may feel slightly less eager to rush out the door and do things. Instead, we may want to take it easy and savor life for a while. If you're an earth sign, you'll find this the perfect day for laying the foundation of a game plan you'd like to implement once Mercury retrograde is over.
If you're a fire sign, you might feel annoyed that you must wait longer to get going with what you had in mind for the week. Water and air signs: this is a time to think about the future; you might even prefer to delegate tasks to another person so you can be a free spirit for the day. Whatever you have planned, things are about to change dramatically for us all. We aren't out of the woods yet regarding cataclysmic change energy. Jupiter and Uranus will join forces all month in Taurus, and these two powerhouses will perfect mid-week. Mars will join Saturn in Pisces, pushing us to work harder and more diligently for the next two years. What happens today and tomorrow are signs to pay attention to. If you think an incident is highly unusual or borderline surreal or Deja Vu-ish, take note — you may see the start of something in your life — a new life purpose in a direction!
