Nostalgia appears today, drawing a bit of moodiness into the atmosphere. Story telling can wander into reminiscence. (“My mother baked wonderful pies!”). Use memory as a tool where appropriate, but let your meander through the past serve the present, not the past. Food is a good solution if you’re overtaken
by emotion: grumpy people need to eat and a light snack solves everything. Henry David Thoreau said, “A man may esteem himself happy when that which is his food is also his medicine.” What’s good? Brilliant intellectual interchanges, a go-get-em attitude and friendly potential partners. Just remember to bring a snack with you everywhere you go.

This is a great day to give a speech, teach a class or chat with everyone you know. People who talk or think for a living have over-the-top brilliance at their fingertips. Do remember to stick to your subject, however, if you veer off into other areas (“I’m here to discuss the irrigation system, but let me tell you about my dietary habits”) you’ll find yourself in trouble. The more you stay on message, the better things go, so focus. Rob Gilbert said, “It’s all right to have butterflies in your stomach. Just get them to fly in formation.” Use the bit of anxiety to improve your game. What’s good? A joyous attitude that makes everything seem like an adventure, exchange of ideas, brilliant thinking, and people on offer as potential partners. Wait a couple of days before making a final decision about new prospects.

Make a special effort to learn about new technological devices but don’t buy anything until May 3. A backward look is beneficial and something you were incapable of understanding in the past becomes clear. “Now I know what happened!” A Eureka moment. The past can be understood and rectified if you take a clear look from all sides. Ignore those who say it’s over, no need for review. Awareness helps you move forward. Helen Keller said, “I don’t want the peace which passeth understanding. I want the understanding which bringeth peace.” An unfavorable response to a communication warns you to stop talking and smile! This is a great day to go for a walk, a bike ride, a drive or a chat with friends. Bouncy energy is fun and everyone feels like socializing.

You are able to look through an opening and see the future today, keep an eye out for this experience. It’ll come and go in a flash but you’ll know what to do after it happens. Happiness is back on the menu and a combination of intelligence and stability brings satisfaction. Mercury is still in retrograde, reminding you to file your taxes (“oops- forgot!”), renew your driver’s license and anything else that slipped right past you in the hubub of daily life. Pema Chodron said, “Just where you are-that’s the place to start.” A certain quickness and agility is present that allows you to work fast, walk fast and zip through projects. A last minute healing regimen handles a pesky problem, and love is in bloom.

The new moon day gives you a whole new start for the month, and peaceful Taurus feels just right for those who have been buffeted by rambunctious Aries planets. Need a rest? This is your time to be relaxed and smart as a whip, a great combination! You are blessed with stability of purpose, determination and intelligence. Abraham Lincoln said, “Always remember that your own resolution to succeed is more important than any other.” Partnership is excellent, diplomacy is excellent and conversations are invigorating.

An early stroke of good fortune starts things off on the right foot. This is a perfect day to set off on a long-planned trip, to fire a missile at long last or launch an enterprise that kept stalling out.
All favorable forces are lined up for success. Do not take action on the basis of a sudden whim, though, it will come to nothing. Friendly forces are here to accompany you on your quest and enthusiasm is high. Ralph Waldo Emerson said, “The world belongs to the energetic.” Barrel around fixing things, helping people and expressing concern for everyone. You could just be the person whose attention makes someone’s day!

Energy! You have it and so does everyone else. An early announcement or statement kicks off the activity for the rest of the day, and fast thinking is highlighted. Women are a source of
inspiration and men are willing to follow along cheerfully. “What’s the plan?” is on everyone’s lips. The problem, of course, is that Mercury is still retrograde and a “Great leap backward” is possible. If you’ve done something before don’t do it again, it’ll work out the same as last time. This is a great day to reflect on your deepest beliefs. The image of a corralled horse bucking around is apt, feeling frisky but nowhere to go. What’s good today? A recent sadness is behind you and options appear where none were possible before. Spend time thinking about finances, making deals and cleaning up old messes. They will now stay cleaned up.

Men are cheerful, buying supplies and making preparations for what is to come. It is difficult to see that a sad parting today brings happiness in the future, but it does, and knowing this makes it easier to bear. James Lane Allen said, “You are today where your thoughts have brought you; you will be tomorrow where your thoughts take you.” A conversation that revisits the past has a stabilizing effect on your thinking. The news is electrifying and favorable. Partners are helpful but the individual is the major player today; the ability to determine your own course has never been more important. Ask everyone’s advice and you’ll get so many answers that you’ll be paralyzed by indecision. Make up your own mind and the way will be clear.

Peace, this is your day. A painful situation is waning and something that seemed etched in stone is dissolving. The problem is that right now you want to tell everyone about what you’ve been through, and this you should not do. Be aware that discussing something that has ended breathes new life into it, brings it back. Escapist behavior is excellent today: go to the movies, paint, create, listen to music, spend time near water. Groups are supportive and machines are helpful. Ralph Waldo Emerson said, “This time, like all times, is a very good one if we but know what to do with it.” Emotion is in charge now and rational thought seems to have taken a vacation. Mercury is retrograde and nobody’s thinking straight. That clears things up! Relax, take it easy, take a bath.

A chatterbox is here: someone is willing to say more than you want to hear and angry if you tire of listening. Exercise is the solution, plus writing, studying and thinking. Go for a run or a walk, call your neighbor, brother or sister. This is the perfect day to write your letter to the editor, your position statement or your book. A painful secret comes to light, clarifying the situation, and a group rallies round to give support. The urge to be fair gets you into trouble: you extend a hand to the wrong person and get stuck. A New York road sign says, “Choose your rut carefully; you’ll be in it for the next ten miles.” What’s good today? Brilliant ideas from intelligent sources, help from more experienced parties and as the day progresses, shopping!
