The Week Ahead: The Hum of the Universe
April closes with a fiery reckoning and a grounding invitation. We begin the week with a high-stakes New Moon in Taurus that urges us to plant intentions rooted in truth—but not without pressure. Mars and Pluto add heat, Venus and Saturn demand integrity, and Neptune clouds what we think we want. There’s a growing call to integrate desire with discipline, passion with presence. This is a week to test our values in real time—and lead with what lasts.
This Week’s Astrology: Key Transits & Energies
Uranus Conjunct Algol (26° Taurus)
All week long, Uranus—the planet of disruption, awakening, and innovation—sits on the fixed star Algol. Algol is traditionally associated with volatility and intense transformation, and in mythology it marks the eye of Medusa, the Gorgon whose power could turn onlookers to stone. This star is deeply tied to themes of repressed power, particularly the kind that has been feared or demonized—especially in the feminine form. This star carries themes of collective fear, feminine rage, and the reclamation of power through previously demonized parts of self. When Uranus meets Algol, we’re thrust into the shocking and liberatory reactivation of this energy.
This alignment has historically coincided with intense, even violent upheaval. Notably, the last time Uranus was on Algol—on July 13, 2024—there was an assassination attempt on Donald Trump. Whether personal or collective, this transit demands that we reframe what we fear—and face it. Watch the headlines. But more importantly, pay attention to the power you’re reclaiming—from the parts of yourself you’ve silenced, feared, or given away. Reclamation is sacred—but make sure it’s rooted in awareness, not reaction.
April 27: New Moon in Taurus (7°)
Squares Mars in Leo and the Part of Fortune
This is not your average Taurus New Moon. While typically a time for grounding and setting stable intentions, this one is volatile and fiery. The square to Mars in Leo brings boldness, urgency, and potential confrontation. The square to the Part of Fortune amplifies the stakes. Think: catalyzing values under pressure. Plant your seeds with courage, not complacency.
April 27: Venus conjunct Saturn in Pisces (28°)
A karmic checkpoint. Relationships, finances, and creative projects are up for review. This is a moment of quiet gravity—what’s not soul-aligned may quietly fall away. What is real will deepen. Commit to what has heart and structure.
April 28: Mars in Leo opposes Pluto in Aquarius (3°)
High drama, both personal and collective. Power dynamics, ego clashes, and confrontations about control or visibility may erupt. This is the kind of energy that reveals what’s been simmering beneath the surface. Express yourself, but don’t explode.
May 1–3: Venus enters Aries and conjuncts Neptune (1°)
The romantic spell is cast. Longing, creativity, projection, and rose-colored ideals take center stage. Venus in Aries wants what it wants now, but Neptune blurs the line between passion and fantasy. This is gorgeous for inspiration, but risky for assumptions.
Moon Phase: Waxing Moon moves through Leo and Virgo midweek
As lunar energy builds, so does the urge to act. Leo brings expressive boldness, while Virgo craves refinement. Don’t rush. The fixed sign energy suggests that what starts now could stick.
Themes: Rooted boldness, emotional alchemy, beauty with a backbone.
This is an initiation disguised as a confrontation. Let your values lead. This is an initiation disguised as a confrontation. Let your values lead.

The IRL tip means how to apply your astrology “In Real Life”.
I hope this clarifies your questions. Merryman
Aries (March 21-April 19) Weekly Horoscope: for Aries & Aries Rising
House Impacted:
Second House (Self-worth, Earnings, Resources)
Theme for the Week:
Your value isn’t up for negotiation.
Your IRL Week:
The New Moon in Taurus activates your finances and material security, but it squares Mars in your fifth house—raising questions about what you’re willing to risk for your art, pleasure, or love. Mars opposing Pluto this week means the stakes feel high. Are you investing in what really sustains you, or chasing gold-painted distractions?
Venus in Pisces offers a final moment of emotional clarity, then slips into your sign by May 1. Cue the charm. But with Neptune close behind, you’re walking a fine line between alluring and delusional. Stay grounded in the love that’s real—not the one you’ve invented.
IRL Tip:
Not every spark is worth a wildfire. Get clear about what you truly value before swiping, spending, or saying yes.
Gifts for Aries and Astrology Reports
Taurus (April 20-May 20) Weekly Horoscope: for Taurus & Taurus Rising
House Impacted:
First House (Self, Identity, Visibility)
Theme for the Week:
A new you, forged in fire.
Your IRL Week:
With Uranus activating your sign and sitting directly on Algol this week, this rebirth carries extra voltage. Your identity is under renovation—not just from the inside, but in how others perceive your power. You’re not here to be palatable; you’re here to be potent.
This week’s New Moon lands in your sign—your personal cosmic reset. But with Mars squaring it from your fourth house and Pluto opposing from your tenth, this isn’t a quiet fresh start. It’s a push to break from old family conditioning, step into visibility, and own your voice.
Venus and Neptune offer up spiritual downloads or disillusionment in your social sphere. Are you following your dream—or someone else’s aesthetic? By week’s end, your ruling planet enters Aries, asking you to move boldly. Don’t let hesitation pose as humility.
IRL Tip:
You don’t have to wait to be fully healed to start. Begin now—as you are.
Gifts for Taurus and Astrology Reports
Gemini (May 21-June 20) Weekly Horoscope: for Gemini & Gemini Rising
House Impacted:
Twelfth House (Dreams, Endings, Subconscious Patterns)
Theme for the Week:
Clean the energetic slate.
Your IRL Week:
The New Moon in Taurus asks you to reflect, release, and recalibrate. With Mars and Pluto pressurizing your mental and communication axis, it’s vital to sort the noise from the message. You may find yourself on the verge of a breakdown—or a breakthrough.
Venus conjunct Saturn brings clarity around your career or public image, while its move into Aries activates your eleventh house of allies. But Neptune may blur who’s truly got your back. Take off the influencer goggles.
IRL Tip:
Rest is not avoidance. It’s preparation. Get quiet enough to hear your soul’s reroute.
Gifts for Gemini and Astrology Reports
Cancer (June 21-July 22) Weekly Horoscope: for Cancer & Cancer Rising
House Impacted:
Eleventh House (Vision, Networks, Community)
Theme for the Week:
Who’s really in your future?
Your IRL Week:
The New Moon activates your house of long-term goals and tribe. Mars squares from your second house, highlighting tension around shared values, money, or feeling undervalued. Add Pluto’s opposition, and you may find you’ve outgrown a group, or a vision is due for a major revision.
Venus enters your career zone midweek, but Neptune’s haze could mean blurred boundaries with bosses or collaborators. Clarify contracts before you commit.
IRL Tip:
You don’t need everyone to cheer for you. Just the right ones.
Gifts for Cancer and Astrology Reports
Leo (July 23-August 22) Weekly Horoscope: for Leo & Leo Rising
House Impacted:
Tenth House (Career, Status, Legacy)
Theme for the Week:
Leadership isn’t performance—it’s presence.
Your IRL Week:
As Uranus sits on Algol in your career house, this week tests whether your leadership is rooted in truth or performance. Are you wielding power or just posturing for approval? This is your Medusa moment: face what you fear in public visibility and let it turn false authority to stone.
The New Moon in Taurus energizes your career house, but Mars squaring from your first and Pluto opposing from your fourth suggests a power struggle between personal will and family or inner patterns. Something’s got to shift—either in how you lead or what you’re leading toward.
Venus enters your travel and truth zone. That could mean a dreamy getaway or a blurry philosophical entanglement. Stay alert to where you’re giving your energy and why.
IRL Tip:
Charisma is a tool. But clarity is your power move.
Gifts for Leo and Astrology Reports
Virgo (August 23-September 22) Weekly Horoscope: for Virgo & Virgo Rising
House Impacted:
Ninth House (Expansion, Belief Systems, Publishing)
Theme for the Week:
Revise your mission statement.
Your IRL Week:
The Taurus New Moon plants a seed in your ninth house of meaning and future vision. But Mars squares from your twelfth and Pluto opposes from your sixth—what’s surfacing now is deeply karmic. Old beliefs are shedding like snake skin. Your faith is being recalibrated not in theory, but in practice.
Venus enters Aries and links with Neptune, tempting you to idealize a partner, teacher, or guru. Stay aware of the difference between guidance and projection. This is a week to clear space for a belief system that grows with you—not confines you.
IRL Tip:
Give yourself permission to dream bigger, but build on truth—not fantasy.
Gifts for Virgo and Astrology Reports
Libra (September 23-October 22) Weekly Horoscope: for Libra & Libra Rising
House Impacted:
Eighth House (Intimacy, Shared Resources, Transformation)
Theme for the Week:
Merging with clarity, not chaos.
Your IRL Week:
This week’s New Moon in Taurus calls attention to how you merge—financially, emotionally, spiritually. But Mars squares from your eleventh and Pluto opposes from your fifth. That’s a recipe for friction between your desires and a community or lover who may not match your depth.
Venus enters your partnership house, boosting attraction and agreements, but its close contact with Neptune can make things foggy fast. Are you seeing the person—or the potential? Get real before you get further entangled.
IRL Tip:
Vulnerability is sexy. Vagueness isn’t. Say what you mean, mean what you say.
Gifts for Libra and Astrology Reports
Scorpio (October 23-November 21) Weekly Horoscope: for Scorpio & Scorpio Rising
House Impacted:
Seventh House (Partnerships, Contracts, Mirrors)
Theme for the Week:
Pressure points in the heart.
Your IRL Week:
Uranus on Algol stirs deep undercurrents in your partnership zone. This week, you’re being called to face fears around intimacy, betrayal, and power dynamics in love. Don’t look away from the shadow—this is a sacred reckoning.
The New Moon invites new relational dynamics—but Mars in your career house squares it, and Pluto in your home sector opposes it. Expect tension between private needs and public pressures. You’re not crazy if a relationship feels both invigorating and overwhelming right now.
Venus glides into Aries, lighting up your routines and self-care rituals. But Neptune’s haze may tempt escapism. Don’t sacrifice wellness for fantasy. Build new love stories on a foundation of reality, not potential.
IRL Tip:
Just because it’s intense doesn’t mean it’s meant to last. Intensity is not the same as intimacy.
Gifts for Scorpio and Astrology Reports
Sagittarius (November 22-December 21) Weekly Horoscope: for Sagittarius & Sagittarius Rising
House Impacted:
Sixth House (Work, Health, Daily Flow)
Theme for the Week:
Reinvent your rituals.
Your IRL Week:
This New Moon wants to plant new roots in your wellness and work routines. But Mars squares from your ninth house and Pluto opposes from your third. That could mean ideological clashes, burnout, or the need to break free from outdated schedules.
Venus enters your fifth house and aligns with Neptune. Romance, creativity, and joy are on offer—but so are illusions. Let inspiration fuel your fire, not smother it with melodrama.
IRL Tip:
Burnout isn’t a badge of honor. Choose what’s sustainable over what’s impressive.
Gifts for Sagittarius and Astrology Reports
Capricorn (December 22-January 19) Weekly Horoscope: for Capricorn & Capricorn Rising
House Impacted:
Fifth House (Love, Creativity, Joy)
Theme for the Week:
Make beauty from pressure.
Your IRL Week:
The New Moon in Taurus offers a chance to recommit to what brings you alive. But Mars and Pluto challenge your values—what are you sacrificing for success or security? It’s time to realign with joy that doesn’t require a performance.
Venus enters your home sector and links with Neptune. Beautiful nesting vibes abound, but make sure the home you’re creating reflects your truth, not someone else’s fantasy.
IRL Tip:
You don’t need to earn your right to enjoy life. Pleasure is not a privilege—it’s a practice.
Gifts for Capricorn and Astrology Reports
Aquarius (January 20-February 18) Weekly Horoscope: for Aquarius & Aquarius Rising
House Impacted:
Fourth House (Home, Roots, Emotional Foundations)
Theme for the Week:
Stabilize your soul.
Your IRL Week:
Uranus conjunct Algol this week hits your home sector with unexpected truths. Family dynamics, ancestral trauma, or foundational beliefs may surface. This is your chance to rewrite the story—not to deny the past, but to transform it.
This New Moon invites you to tend to your base—but Mars in your partnership zone and Pluto in your sign stir up relational friction. You’re evolving, and it may be time to set new terms in your closest ties. The question is: where do you feel most like yourself?
Venus moves into your communication sector but merges with Neptune—watch for sweet-talking, vague promises, or over-romanticized ideas. Keep it grounded.
IRL Tip:
Renovate your foundations from the inside out. What supports you emotionally matters more than ever.
Gifts for Aquarius and Astrology Reports
Pisces (February 19-March 20) Weekly Horoscope: for Pisces & Pisces Rising
House Impacted:
Third House (Communication, Mindset, Local Ties)
Theme for the Week:
Talk it out. But make it true.
Your IRL Week:
With Uranus conjunct Algol influencing your communication house, this week has you speaking truth that rattles cages—yours and others. Watch what rises when you stop softening your voice. This is not just a message—it’s a reclaiming.
The New Moon in Taurus asks you to plant seeds around expression, voice, and the stories you tell yourself. But Mars in Leo squares from your sixth house of labor and health, while Pluto pushes back from your twelfth. If you’ve been privately simmering over how much effort you’re giving without acknowledgment, this is your week to name it.
With Venus and Neptune sharing one last dreamy fusion in your sign, your charm is high, but clarity might be low. You can say all the right things and still be misunderstood—especially if you’re not sure what you want. This is not about manipulating perceptions. It’s about being willing to risk vulnerability for truth.
People may project fantasies onto you, and you onto them. Especially if you’ve felt like a spiritual rescue buoy for others, the real test now is: can you speak your truth and still be loved? Yes. But first, speak it.
IRL Tip:
You don’t need to say everything. But when you speak—make it count. Say what’s real, not just what’s pretty.
