Taurus
Born between: April 20th - May 20th
Those with the Taurus sign are perfect partners in friendship and love as they're loving, loyal and understanding. However those born under the Taurus sign at times can be stubborn but always are patient and generous.
The New Moon in your Sign gives you the courage to take on the world, Bulls. It is a good thing, too, because it seems the world may be challenging you today, as Venus is under stress. You may be faced with pressure in your career and concerning your social status, but you should be ready to take on anyone and anything. The planets are lining up in your favour, so proceed with confidence. Favourable colours are ruby red and snow white. Lucky numbers are 2 and 10.
This is a great day for you to do a bit of moving and shaking in your world; don't be afraid to go after the things you want. With the Moon happy to be in your sign, you have the extra charm and grace you need to bring people to your side. The only advice I can offer is to simply be yourself... Don't try to be what you think other people want you to be. Your personal integrity is enough. Fortunate colours are crimson and cream. Lucky numbers are 19 and 28.
If you are still feeling depleted of energy, remember that it is always darkest before dawn. During the last day of your low lunar cycle, find ways to refresh your soul.

Give yourself permission to rest and relax today. Beneficial colours are sunset pink and silver. Lucky numbers are 21 and 30.
With the moody Moon passing through your twelfth house of secrets and solitude, it is time to take things slow and easy. You may find that your natural psychic abilities are heightened at this time; even if you never experience psi phenomenon, you may find yourself faced with it now. This can be as simple as knowing who is calling before the phone even rings; pay attention to the little things for a glimpse of the beauty of the mind. Polarising colours are burnt orange and sage green. Lucky numbers are 68 and 3.
Now that the Moon is sailing through peaceful Pisces and your eleventh house of friendship, you can take a well-deserved rest from the cold, harsh world.

Surround yourself with your favourite Neptunian people and wait for the fairy dust to start working. Fortunate colours are dusky rose and sea green. Lucky numbers are 11 and 22.
Yesterday's developments continue to concern you. Whatever has transpired, you must see it through if you are to realize positive results.

After all, friendship and love is all there really is. Excellent colours are pastel rose and sea green. Lucky numbers are 21 and 36.
Your official birthday month is just beginning, so you can look forward to the start of your personal new year soon.

Excitement is generated by the passing Moon activating unpredictable Uranus; anything goes today.

Lucky numbers are 7 and 60.
The Moon activates your tenth house of career and status today, placing you under pressure, as Venus your life-ruler turns direct after weeks of retro motion.

The Moon on Easter Sunday enters your eighth house of sex, money, and power, stirring up strong emotions.

A dilemma involving your closest relationship and your career or reputation may be on your mind today.

Don't take anything too personally today as dark Pluto turns retrograde, under the shadow of tonight's opposition between Mars and Saturn.
