Love Lanyadoo Astrology 04.15-21.2020
This week is a mixed bag astrologically. We shift into sensual Taurus season on the 19th, it may be harder to motivate yourself to get things done - especially if you’re working from home.
From the 19th-21st there will be a Sun square to Saturn. It’s likely to kick up some loneliness or depressive feelings; plan for it by creating some supportive structure to your days. Another good approach to this transit is to get to work; Saturn favors editing, pruning, and organizing.
As always, to learn more about this week’s astrology tune in to episode 98 of Ghost of a Podcast here or wherever podcasts are heard.

ARIES
March 21-April 19
When you slow down, all the things come up, which is inevitably going to be a mixed bag. Make room for uncertainty as you're likely to be in a restless state this week, Aries. You don’t need to know what comes next in order to take care of yourself in the here and now. Instead of taking on more than you can handle in a graceful way, strive to make small decisions that you can follow through on. Focus on one step at a time, my fiery friend.

TAURUS
April 20-May 20
Even as you get your footing, people and situations are changing all around you, Taurus. This week you’re on call to find your voice. You don’t have to be on the same page as others all the time, but when others are in flux, expressing yourself diplomatically is helpful. Take the necessary time to reflect on the boundaries of your needs and the limits of what you have to offer. In this way the problems that others are having won’t get misdirected onto you.

GEMINI
May 21-June 21
You may have a new insight that helps you see your situation and the world more clearly (yay!), but that doesn’t mean you’ll be able to act on it right away (boo!). There’s a big difference between understanding and accepting. The former can happen in an instant while the letter takes more time. Cultivate ownership of your perspective, your responsibilities, and your needs. This is foundational to creating the peace you want to feel in your life, Twin Star.

CANCER
June 22-July 22
This is a valuable time to learn from your past, Moonchild. Take a moment to reflect on the themes playing themselves out in your life at this time. When have you been confronted by similar patterns or dynamics? The only constant in all of your life experiences is you; find the lesson you're meant to be learning. The actions to take will in turn be clarified. You can’t control much in this life other than your own participation. Try your best, my love.

LEO
July 23-Aug. 22
If you allow yourself to become embroiled in power struggles, you’ll set problems in motion unnecessarily. This isn’t the time to get petty or to take out your feelings on others, passively or aggressively, dear Leo. Take ownership of how you’re feeling, even if it’s awful. If you find that you’re in an unpleasant state, that’s okay—just don’t take it out on others. Tend to your needs before you go trying to manage your relationships this week.

VIRGO
Aug. 23-Sept. 22
Invest in the inner work, Virgo. There are many levels to making a decision, and the first one is internal. You don’t have to do anything that you're not ready for this week, but doing nothing isn’t the right move either. Give yourself the space you need to get right with your situation and your vision. Only make a plan from there. Strategies and action are easier when they come from peace of mind; start with how you feel, and figure out what you need to do from there.

LIBRA
Sept. 23-Oct. 22
There’s a lot of stress in the air these days, and it’s not easy on relationships. If you have interpersonal difficulties this week, you may need to make the delicate decision of whether to address things directly or cut people some slack. Either way, you don’t need to engage with dynamics that are all drama and no real substance, Libra. Pick your battles wisely and honestly; if you’re going to fight, fight for your relationships, not for being right.

SCORPIO
Oct. 23-Nov. 21
Find three proactive things that you can do to improve your life or the lives around you, and dedicate yourself to them this week. Do one thing to pragmatically manage your situation, one to support your feelings, and one to help another person or people. If you’re already doing these things, take the time to validate yourself. These may be hard times, but the little things add up. Remember your agency, and value your own efforts—no matter how big or small they are.

SAGITTARIUS
Nov. 22-Dec. 21
Even if you're right, that doesn’t mean that others will agree. It doesn't mean that you'll be able to mobilize on your ideas or that things will go your way either. In other words, being right isn’t everything. This week your ego is being tested; your desire to prove yourself isn’t always your wisest impulse. How is it damning the flow of your own inner world, Sagittarius? Find ways of cultivating peace within yourself that don’t require getting others to agree with you.

CAPRICORN
Dec. 22-Jan. 19
This week isn’t the time to prematurely push for results. The process is the journey, Capricorn. Take a look at your relationship to control and the impatience that it generates. You have more agency in your life when you act out of your integrity and not out of attachment to the expected outcome of your efforts. For more peaceful feelings and a more effective use of your energy, identify the value in your actions, and focus on that as much as you can this week.

AQUARIUS
Jan. 20-Feb. 18
You are changing, and that means you will inevitably need your relationships, your actions, and your attitudes to shift with you. It’s unrealistic to expect it all to happen at once though; cultivate enough confidence in your changes to be patient with how it all plays out. No matter what it feels like, you don’t need things to move quickly. You need them to move in the right direction. Don’t strong-arm change—embody it, Aquarius.

PISCES
Feb. 19-March 20
If you’ve taken in too much information, if you’re stressed to the point of overwhelm, or if you’re just plain tired, it’s time to take a step back. Before you go adding more to the pile, prioritize fortifying yourself, dear Pisces. It’s time to honor your own inner knowing, but that’s extra hard to do when you’re maxed and taxed. There’s no shame in knowing your limits and working with them. Give yourself a break, and put self-care first this week.
