Cancer Horoscope for April 2008
Finally - a month that's completely to your liking! With a crown of stars shimmering brightly at the very pinnacle point of your chart, filling your 10th house of honors, awards, and achievement with brilliant light, you have one of the best career months of the year to get that plum job or promotion. If you are tired of your job or if you don't like the people, the location, or the pay, here's your chance to break free!
Your moment to begin interviews and to send letters and resumes will be the new moon in Aries, April 5, and the two weeks that follow. As you know, it takes time to get a juicy job, so it may take weeks or months to actually have it in hand. That's OK - what matters now is that you begin your search at the new moon, for the interviews you have - especially in the first week, April 5-13 - will likely bear fruit.
This new moon will be at hard angles to Jupiter and Mars, which only means that you will feel a great urgency to make a decisive career move soon. Hard aspects make us restless and ready for change, which is why we often find the courage to do so. You may find that the job you want is attractive to others too, so be prepared to show how passionate you are about getting this spot.
It does not appear that an agent or headhunter will be of much use this time around. In fact, it may be that this middleman may bring more objections / obstacles / impediments than assistance, so you may find yourself in the bizarre position of having to persuade this person of the value of your strategy. Take the lead, trust your instincts, and move assertively forward. Of course, keep your agent / headhunter / business partner in the loop - later they'll see you were right all along.
I could be wrong about this, so before you put on earmuffs whenever your agent opens her mouth, wait! It's alternatively possible that your agent / headhunter is not the problem but that your romantic partner would be, perhaps because your significant other doesn't agree with your career strategy and seems to want to endlessly discuss the pros and cons of your course of action. In that case, the advice would be the same - to do a good convincing job on your partner AND in the world, with those mucky-mucks you are calling on for that top job.
You have a lot going for you now. Mars is still blazing through Cancer, a place that will give you an enviable advantage over others. Mars will put you in the leadership position and give you a certain aura of authority, as well as much more courage and drive. You will also have an unending supply of energy to mow down obstacles if necessary. Indeed, having Mars in your sign always makes one more attractive, and with a feeling of better health, too. If you have been battling a health concern, this placement this month will be a big help.
Mars had entered Cancer in late September, but by mid-November 2007 went retrograde. Mars didn't fully normalize for you until March. By the start of April, you will have built up solid career momentum, assuming you've been looking. March was good for starting your search, but honestly, April will be a far better career hunting month because you'll have Mars AND the new moon in your professional sector.
You may be busy starting your own business, because the new moon in Aries suggests a bold new enterprise. Cancers like to own their own business. As a cardinal sign, your sign is known to like taking a proactive approach and running your own show. Many Cancers are savvy business people - going off on your own is certainly within the realm of possibility.
Whatever you choose to do, you must hurry. You'll have only until May 9 to plant all your seeds. See anyone who will see you, send query letters, make presentations, and arrange lunches or after work meetings over drinks. After May 9, Mars will move on to Leo and you will lose some of your glitter. Also, keep in mind that in late May, Mercury will go retrograde from May until June 18. As you see, you really do have a rare and wonderful moment in time to hit the bull's eye.
What you need is a stroke of career luck, and that's what due on your exciting day, April 22. On that day Mars will be in elegant angle to Uranus, allowing you to score a victory in your career and land a generous salary.
Mars rules your house of career success and Uranus is based in your 9th house, opening up several possibilities. The person who helps you may be from a foreign country. Or, you may need to travel to see the person you want to pitch, face-to-face.
This same 9th house emphasis suggests that you may do well with positions in the media, say, as a journalist, author, columnist, editor, proofreader, researcher, news anchor or host, producer, programming director, or as any member of media support staff. If you teach college or work in a university setting, you are similarly favored near and on April 22. The same would be true if you cater to the college demographic.
As the month progresses, romance will grow as a major theme. The ultra-romantic full moon on April 20 will cook up a delightful diversion! This could easily work out to be the most romantic full moon of the year. Falling on April 20 in your house of true love, this full moon is unusual in that it will partner so beautifully with Pluto and Saturn. Pluto is in your house of partnership and commitment, and Saturn is in your 3rd house of communication, contracts, and promises - both are blending flawlessly with the Sun, now in your house of fun.
As said, this full moon will activate your 3rd house, which also rules travel, so you may decide to take a little short romantic getaway this month - a great idea to do near April 20.
Speaking of travel, Mercury, the planet ruling travel, will be unusually active this month. This suggests that if you don't travel near the full moon (very possible), you have an even better chance of hopping a plane over the magnificent weekend of April 26-27. Over that weekend Mercury will be in talks with Uranus (surprises) and Jupiter (luck and happiness). Wow, you could not do better than this for a spontaneous trip!
I would like to see you use this weekend for romance, but if you don't see that happening, you might alternatively use this weekend for business travel. Extend your stay so you could see a little more of your surroundings - you'd have equally happy results. You'd really enjoy this trip, and the talks you have would really go well, too.
Your most romantic days: April 19-23, 25-26, and 30.
Summary
You have now arrived at the most important month of the year to make major career gains. If you've been aching to get a new, more responsible position, you must jump on opportunities that arrive just after April 5, the new moon in your house of fame and honors. With a crown of stars twinkling at the very top of your horoscope, you should have no trouble convincing higher-ups that you're the one they should choose over other candidates.
That new moon will be in hard angle to Mars, suggesting that you will find yourself in a competitive or even a political situation, with everyone jockeying for the top spot. This is most likely because the job in question would be a juicy one. You've never been one to be deterred by competition, so barrel forward. Keep faithful to your plan - VIPs will be impressed with your cool demeanor and substantial accomplishments.
If you are self-employed, this trend will apply to you too - go after the prestigious client and don't be fazed if your competitors are doing the same. You have the cosmos on your side.
After weeks of concentrating hard on your job search (or campaign for promotion) you'll want to have fun and relax. The full moon April 20 will be your friend by bringing you one of the year's most tender moments. Falling in your house of true love (the only time in 2008), this full moon will work beautifully with Saturn and Pluto, usually the zodiac's bad boys, but this time both will be on their best behavior. Other planets - Jupiter and Uranus - will also lend a hand, making for a truly superb full moon for romance. Expect lots of upbeat surprises, but also the sharing of some wonderfully warm and intimate moments that will linger in your heart a very long time.
This full moon on April 20 will allow you to move your relationship closer and up to the next level. With the full moon in Scorpio you will find love to be all you want it to be - intense, private, and very sexy. If you're single and not dating, you could meet a gorgeous someone you'll like to know better.
Are you attached? With good fortune planet Jupiter still sending spontaneous Uranus a friendly vibe in your 9th house of travel, you may decide to hop a plane and take a quick trip to the opposite coast, or even to a foreign country. A cruise would be another great idea. Check into bargains - you might pick up a couple of tickets for an elegant and spacious cabin on the ship at bargain prices, right at the last minute. Surprise keeps a relationship spicy, so let go, be spontaneous, and have a little fun.
If you do travel, consider going away from April 19 to 29, days that will bring on a number of fine aspects. Go with a sweetheart or with friends. Either way you'd have a great time.
Finally, if you don't travel and don't have someone special yet, the last week of April will be just made for enjoying the camaraderie of friends, thanks to Mercury, the Chatty Cathy of the solar system. Mercury will reach out to Uranus, Jupiter, and Mars. Enjoy yourself to the fullest from April 25 through April 30.
