Saturday April 20, 2024

Aries

It's time to embrace one of life’s great paradoxes: Structure can actually set you free. For the first time since 1941, Jupiter and Uranus make an exact connection in Taurus this Saturday, helping you create habits, systems and plans that expand your world. There's no need to feel confined by doing something regularly—like going to the gym, showing up at an office or creating a consistent bedtime for yourself. Create inspiring rituals around these practices. Add beauty and sensuality (e.g., fill an ionic diffuser with lavender oil and place it near your bed). Adopt a "beginner's mind" and bring a sense of wonder to all that you do. Soon your "ordinary" moments will feel anything but mundane. The mere thought of conflict can bring down your mood this Sunday, but avoiding it won't make it go away. As Pluto in your teamwork sector clashes with the Sun, issues could be forced to the surface. Remember this: A disagreement with a friend or lover is not the end of the world. In fact, it might be the beginning of a new chapter. Accepting—and, dare we suggest, championing—your differences could actually bring you closer together. 

Taurus

This is a day for the history books, Bull! For the first time since 1941, enterprising Jupiter makes an exact conjunction to innovative Uranus in YOUR sign this Saturday. This rare alignment can take your most reactive or revolutionary ideas and spread them like wildfire. Whoa! If you have something to say, step on that platform and share from your heart. These two game-changing planets won't align like this again until 2037 (and they won’t be in Taurus then), so pay attention to the brainstorms that come in, then plan to launch into action with the May 4 new moon in your sign. You could wake up inspired by a lofty goal this Sunday, and yeah, some may call you idealistic. But if egos are involved, a power struggle could erupt under the semi-annual Sun-Pluto square. With el Sol in Taurus, you might feel like taking charge by any means necessary. But don't. Instead, make a point of taking everyone's opinion into account, especially the less vocal people. If inequalities have snuck past your attention, right that wrong, stat.

Gemini

Let down your walls this Saturday as expansive Jupiter forms an exact conjunction to groundbreaking Uranus in Taurus. These forward-thinking planets are in two of the most emotional zones of your chart. They won't meet again like this until 2037—so seize the moment to bare your soul. While you might normally roll your eyes or hide behind jokes, that's far from your M.O. today. This ultra-rare pairing could bring a beautiful moment of forgiveness, bonding or serendipitous connection. It's safe to trust and let a certain someone support you—at last. Elsewhere, however, things could be complicated on Sunday. The ego-boosting Sun locks into a tense angle with power-hungry Pluto, making it impossible to ignore a tempestuous relationship dynamic. Until now, you've been burying your head in the sand. But under this volcanic mashup, you'll have to face the music and deal. Lower your guard, but don't drop it altogether. Certain people are intent on playing dirty, and you need to protect your heartstrings.

Cancer

Bring on the breakthroughs! On Saturday, visionary Jupiter and radical changemaker Uranus form a rare conjunction in Taurus and the most synergistic zone of your chart. A collaborative effort could take you to unimaginable new heights. As one of the zodiac’s most family-oriented signs, you're always down for a close-knit group experience. Still, what unfolds today could blow your mind, Cancer. Jupiter and Uranus won't join up again like this until 2037. Take inventory: What are your strengths, and where could you use “a village” to fill in the blanks? Put it out there, and watch the connections start popping. The Sun in your social sector is calling for pure, unadulterated fun this weekend, but on Sunday, don't invite your entire BFF list. With potent Pluto disrupting the vibe from your intimate eighth house, you might be happier stepping out with two or three close peeps—or a VIP plus-one. By the same token, you could wind up resentful if a "controlling" person demands undivided attention that you have no interest in giving. 

Leo

Movin' on up! Saturday marks a rare and fortuitous conjunction between expansive Jupiter and changemaker Uranus in your career corner.. Forget about climbing the ladder rung by rung or paying your dues. At a moment like this, you've got a metaphorical jetpack strapped to your shoulders. All you have to do is be bold and make your big ask…then enjoy your meteoric ascent. Jupiter and Uranus won't align this way again until 2037, so dare to believe in grand possibilities. It's time to let the stars supersize your dreams. Sunday’s challenge: How to pay more attention to the ones you love without sacrificing time you want to devote to a project. With Pluto in your relationship sector clashing with the Sun in your house of ambition, the pendulum CAN swing in the middle. Maybe it's putting definitive plans on the books or making a cutoff time for work each day. Structure is key.

Virgo

Saturday marks one of the most expansive and fortuitous days of 2024 as abundant Jupiter makes an exact conjunction to Uranus in your bountiful ninth house. Opportunity could arrive out of the blue, perhaps to travel, teach or publish your work. You may even get an offer to relocate or to be part of a startup venture. Got a world-changing idea? Step onto a global or cross-cultural platform—no need to limit your message in any way. This is one that will carry across so-called differences. If you have any cleanup work to do, earmark Sunday for that. Transformational Pluto sends a sharp beam to the Sun from your sixth house of efficiency (aka “the Virgo house”), and you may have to put wanderlust on hold while you tend to more mundane matters. But that's not to say you can't satisfy your urges at the end of the day. Watch a foreign film while folding laundry, then meet friends for a sumptuous Mediterranean dinner.

Libra

It's hard to forgive a betrayal, especially since your active mind plays back the details like a streaming series you already binged too many times. However, Saturday’s liberating conjunction of optimistic Jupiter and progressive Uranus can change your whole perspective. You may suddenly see how resentment is weighing you down or making YOUR system toxic. Allow this forward-moving aspect to help you release the pain of the past. These two powerful planets won't align this way again until 2037, so don't miss the opportunity to set yourself free. You may feel a touch moody Sunday as the Sun in your intense eighth house bucks against surly Pluto. All of this equates to some pretty strong emotions swirling around. And if you can sit in them instead of distracting yourself, you could move the needle big-time on a stuck situation. The trick is to observe certain feelings as they arise and try to observe, not control or direct them. If you've been feeling alone, don’t isolate yourself! A walk with a compassionate friend could clear this stormy mood.

Sagittarius

Your ruling planet, abundant Jupiter, gets into lockstep with innovative Uranus this Saturday, meeting in Taurus for the first time since 1941! Get ready to revolutionize the way you think about work, organization and goals. If you've been plodding along on one path, this game-changing alignment could introduce a whole new way of doing business or running your day-to-day life. A higher-up could open doors for you, but don't overlook the “outliers” either. A talented assistant or gatekeeper could hold the keys to your next big move. Jupiter and Uranus won't be conjunct again until 2037, so make use of any opportunities that come your way. Whatever you get into on Sunday, it's important to step back and observe any emotions that arise. Do this BEFORE becoming an active participant in any sort of dramatic eruption. When you feel the urge to react, call a timeout. (Or tell people, "I'll call you right back," no explanation required.) Go for a short walk, take ten deep breaths, text your "voice of reason" friend. If you give the feelings a chance to swell up, they'll also simmer down, much like a wave in the ocean. After that, you'll know just how to respond to the situation at hand.

Capricorn

The bigger, the better? That's your growth-focused zodiac sign's general M.O., and this Saturday, the stars align in raucous support. Lucky Jupiter joins up with disruptive Uranus, giving you a global platform to express your most creative and cutting-edge ideas. You could also speak out about a human rights issue or a social cause close to your heart. Expressing your ideals in an artistic or visual format could make the message much more potent. These two planets won't align this way again until 2037, so strike while the iron is hot. A sudden love affair or an unexpected pregnancy could also come with these turning tides. One of your talents is being straightforward and to the point, but it's optimistic to expect the same directness from others. Sunday, as the illuminating Sun beams into furtive Pluto's well, you may glimpse someone's shady nature. While everyone has an inner Darth Vader, the degrees vary. If the offense is mild, offer them a chance for redemption by addressing the issue head-on. The onus is on them to mitigate your concerns. But ultimately, Cap, you get the final say in the role they play in your life.

Aquarius

<div>Put on a brave face? Not this Saturday, Aquarius.. Outspoken Jupiter forms a healing conjunction to your ruler, groundbreaking Uranus, in Taurus and your sensitive fourth house—for the first time since 1941! You may be caught off-guard by something that touches a deep wellspring of feelings. Or you could have a moment of connection so intimate and raw that you simply can't hold back the tears. Let it out, Water Bearer; your humanity is beautiful! Today, you'll charter the emotion ocean—and navigate it with inspiring grace. You get another cue to lose the armor this Sunday as the Sun in your sensitive fourth house is pierced by deep-diving Pluto, who’s getting used to this new tour through Aquarius that began on January 20. When you're feeling emotions, don't brush them off or try to cover them up with humor. Sunday is about including your needs in the conversation instead of rushing to tend to everyone else's first. While it might take people a minute to catch on (especially the ones you've spoiled), go in with an open heart. After a few negotiations, you'll get the support you need. </div><div><br></div>

Pisces

Dynamic duos could form at lightning speed this Saturday! For the first time since 1941, an ultra-rare conjunction between adventurous Jupiter (your co-ruler) and spontaneous Uranus in Taurus charges up your synergistic third house Although you're a free spirit by nature, you now see how the right companion can make your life more meaningful, exciting and expansive. While you have a million friends, Pisces, it's rare to meet true kindred spirits. Make way for a soulmate connection! Saturday stars could connect you to someone whose skills complement yours perfectly. Jupiter and Uranus won't form this angle again until 2037, so don't miss out! Keep snarky barbs to yourself on Sunday, even if you know you’ll get a few LOLs. As the ego-driven Sun trades fire with vengeful Pluto, this will only heighten the sky-high tension. While you're not wrong for wanting to diffuse the tension, that lighthearted energy isn't appropriate now. Worse, could be seen as being in poor taste. Gauge the room before cracking a joke, and let others set the tone. If people are dealing with serious issues, you need to come from a place of compassion, not comedy.

Scorpio

Set your system to “pairing mode,” Scorpio! On Saturday, visionary Jupiter teams up with Uranus in Taurus and your partnership house, their first meeting in this sign since 1941! Join forces with the plus-one of your choice, or make it known that you, like fellow Scorpio Katy Perry, are on the hunt for your missing puzzle piece. Since both Jupiter and Uranus are agents of change, you could pour your shared energy into potent social action. Jupiter and Uranus won't meet this way again until 2037—in a different sign—so summon the courage to leave your mark as a dynamic duo. Trying to please everyone is a recipe for a stress meltdown on Sunday, but you may catch yourself slipping into that old habit while the Sun gets into a surly square with your ruler, Pluto. While the distribution of give and take might not be precisely equal, accept help when it's offered. Empower friends and family to support you by showing them exactly what you need. For best results, keep the instructions simple and give them one task at a time. Training season’s here!
