A positive aspect involving the Sun and the sobering Saturn can inspire you to connect with others on your wavelength and to extend the hand of friendship. However, go easy where one person is concerned, as tempting though it may be to allow them to draw close, you could feel some reticence. Whatever the reason, you might feel moved to test their loyalty first, Capricorn.

It’s no good beating about the bush, especially if there’s something that you want. With lively Mercury continuing in down-to-earth Taurus, it could get more and more difficult to pretend that you really don’t need it. You might try to talk yourself out of it, but this won’t make it go away. If you go after it and get it, you can breathe a sigh of relief as you bask in feelings of satisfaction.

The Sun moves into your lifestyle sector, highlighting opportunities to review your routines and the way your days pan out. Are you happy with things or does the idea of change leave you feeling excited? The coming four weeks can inspire you to streamline your affairs and perhaps to jettison projects that are interesting, but that may be taking up valuable time and resources.

Are you ready to shake up your routines and become more efficient? You’ll be a multitasking hero and tweaks to your daily habits could bring big results, so get curious about what works for you. Saturn enters Aries and hands you the keys to your domestic space. Responsibility at home may feel heavy at times, but know there’s pride and purpose in holding things together now.

Finding ways to make your home space that much more comfortable, could see some Goats busy redecorating early in May, or enjoying time in peaceful locations. With Pluto Retrograde from the 4th, what you value, and how you use your resources, can also see you wanting to attune your world in a way which firms up your foundations. You could find yourself in demand socially around the 12th’s Full Moon, but will resist anyone who seeks to dominate your time. Family life and emotional strands can take pride of place through to the end of September, and a wellness programme may call out to you too.
