As a Libra, you are usually happiest when working in a collaborative mode, and many Libras like to be married or in an established partnership. At the same time, you are a cardinal sign, known to be anxious to make progress. Everyone likes to have a measure of control to help move things forward, but this month, you will have a hard time getting your plans approved in their purest form. Snags will arise, glitches will need to be fixed, and small points will still need to be discussed, not glossed over. In short, this is not the time to seal deals, sign papers, and shake hands. You have work to do first.
With SIX out of ten heavenly bodies in your opposite sign of Aries, and only Saturn, the planet of caution, in your sign, you may feel a bit pushed by a personal or business partner to go along with his or her plan, and honestly, you won't have the clout you need to have things go precisely your way. Be prepared to compromise and to listen intently. If you have an opinion you need to convey, do it clearly and unemotionally and take time to think when alone. If you don't rush, you'll accomplish more. If you find yourself at loggerheads over a point, suggest a recess and come back the next day or so - a separation often allows for creative ideas to flow for the next session.
The planets are pushing and pulling in various directions, and thus, your emotions may go in various directions this month as well. One day you may be feeling on top of the world and lucky to have found such a wonderful mate or partner in life, and the next you may feel intense frustration and become upset with his or her stubbornness. It may help to know that as you go through April, things will improve by the second half.
The new moon, April 3, will commence the emphasis on partnering. You may be anxious to set up a business alliance, such as to sign papers with a business partner, hire a publicist, chose an agent or headhunter, or hire a new lawyer or other expert. Still, no matter how pressing your schedule, you need to wait, for your timing is off. Pieces of your puzzle won't come together until a few weeks from now, and later you will be glad you didn't act in haste. Alternatively, you may be about to get engaged or married. If you are already married, your mate may be playing a very prominent role in your life.
Among the six planets in your seventh house of partnership is Mars, suggesting you will want to get this partnership set up soon. Uranus, the planet of all things unpredictable, entered this same part of your chart last month on March 11, a completely new influence for you. Uranus can coax you to act in a bold, impetuous way at times, so you may be feeling that you need to rush into a partnership or marriage; but doing so now, without taking time to think, would be the wrong idea. If you are being pressured by a partner to make up your mind or act on a partnership decision, resist and demand more time. You won't have all the facts until after April 23, so cool your jets.
In a cosmic coincidence, on April 3, the day of the new moon, Mars and Uranus will be conjunct. That very hot, aggressive aspect could produce explosive and completely unanticipated results. Don't bring up controversial or touchy subjects with your partner in the days that circle April 3. If you are in divorce talks and have to come to the table on this day, wear your armor, as things could become very tense. If you do provoke your partner, you may trigger a meltdown of epic proportions. Libras born within four days of September 23 will be most susceptible to this impulsiveness.
With Saturn in Libra, you seem to be the more conservative one, while your partner seems to be in favor of taking a more spontaneous, intuitive, and creative approach. As you see, at least for this month, you each have adopted opposite mindsets, and your partner may have a point.
There is a reason I say that, for there is one more major aspect that I have not discussed yet, and this one will be your very best, worth five stars!
On the new moon, April 3, Jupiter, giver of gifts and luck, will also be conjunct the new moon. This configuration is a good indication of just how helpful your partner likely is for you.
Two days later, on April 5 and 6, Jupiter will conjunct the Sun, setting off what I call the "luckiest day of the year" for you. Any talks you have with a proposed partner will go exceedingly well on April 5, the better of those two days. Wow!
Jupiter's position shows that you can lean on your partner for emotional and financial support now. Don't take your partner for granted, however, because as conditions change, you will need to contribute something to the relationship as well. Your partner will be most helpful to you in April and May - after that, your partner's and your attention will be diverted to other areas of life. You will get the most help from your partner now and in May.
In another sector of the sky, Saturn in Libra will oppose all the planets in Aries, but most specifically, Saturn will be tightly opposed to the Sun and new moon of April 3. Saturn might have put a dark little cloud over your head lately, so you may feel life has become nothing but hard work and grey skies. However, you've been viewing the world through a dark glass. Allow for the possibility that your perspective may not be accurate or realistic. Your prospects for your future happiness are far better than you may have assumed, so this month you might want to allow yourself to be a little more optimistic. Sometimes, just pretending you're feeling happy and positive about the future tends to lift your spirits, and doing so often helps to turn a corner. Giving out good energy always helps to attract energetic people to your side.
In terms of Saturn, here I am addressing mainly those readers who have birthdays that fall on October 7, or within five days of this date. If that is you, you will feel the effects of Saturn, as well as the effects of this new moon, April 3, more than most right now.
In addition to a month that seems to have everything, Mercury will be retrograde, in - you guessed it - your same seventh house of partnership from March 30 to April 23. This will make having clear communication more difficult, and it would be easy to misunderstand your partner's intent or stance. This is not a time to make any big decisions, announcements, initiations, promises, purchases, or launches. Upcoming conditions will be rapidly changing and in a way you can't possibly anticipate. Later you may regret making the decisions you made, so sit tight.
A home or real estate situation may be a little frustrating lately, but with Pluto turning retrograde on April 9 to remain out of phase until September 16, you may have to put your plans on hold until later. Pluto will be at hard angles to all the Aries planets this month, so selling or buying a house seems out of the question. Mercury's retrograde orbit is another consideration, which makes acting now the wrong time.
You can initiate a cleaning, painting, or repair program at home, but if you want to launch a major redecorating or remodeling project, move to a new address, or buy or sell a house, that seems best delayed until later in the year - July at the earliest.
The full moon this month will be in Libra on April 17, and this will bring a matter dear to you to great fullness. All full moons have a plus or minus area of influence of four days. This full moon is fairly friendly compared to the new moon, and once you reach this point, many elements of your life will become clearer.
In your career, you may be looking for a job or thinking of changing jobs. If so, there will be a major new moon solar eclipse on July 1 that will send shock waves and change to your tenth house of honors, achievement, and fame. This may be good news, especially if you are tired of the status quo or if you are looking for a job. Wait until that eclipse has spoken before you make any decisions.
This month, with Mercury retrograde, would not be the time to make any professional decisions anyway. You could have discussions about a new position, but do not push for an offer quite yet, and don't give any final answers until after April 23, when Mercury goes direct, at the very earliest.
With the powerful emphasis on partnership you have in your chart, it appears you'll do best by having a middleman, like an agent, job broker, or headhunter for best results. Honestly, in April and May, there seems to be no better way.
Neptune will move briefly into Pisces on April 4 until August 4, to give you a kind of preview of what's to come when Neptune returns for good in February 2012. Once Neptune settles into Pisces next year, he will remain there for fourteen years and light your house of work assignments. It seems you will be doing much more creative work in the future, and it sounds like fun!
Neptune's exit from your fifth house of true love will have an effect, too. You may miss some of the glitter of Neptune's soft glow, but on the other hand, Neptune is known to obscure reality, so you may like the change. If you are single, you may make better choices in terms of dating partners. You'll likely become more practical, perhaps because you know yourself better. For that, you must be happy, for it sounds like you'll get really good results.
Venus, your ruler, will enter your partnership sector on April 21 and improve your day-to-day relationship, regardless of whether your relationship is personal or business in nature.
If you are attached, things get even better on Friday, April 22, when Venus will team up with Uranus, setting off effervescent feelings of joy. If your relationship had been tense earlier in the month, you will find that things improve as you go along.
Summary
You've been under a great deal of stress lately, but this month you will get enormous support from a partner, such as your beloved in your personal life, or a business partner, headhunter, manager, or agent.
It's clear by your chart that this person is very good for you - quite a gem - even though at times, with the close contact you will have, such as on April 3, you might argue with this person and wonder why you are together. You are together because you have a strong bond, and both of you bring something the other needs. On April 3, however, Mars and Uranus will be in conjunction in your opposite sign of Aries. This is a hot combination, sure to bring out latent hostile feelings if any exist. Sometimes when we need help, we feel vulnerable, so we use bravado to hide those feelings. Try not to give your partner a hard time, as this person truly seems to care about your welfare.
Whatever your goal, you seem best able to accomplish it not alone, but with a partner or collaborator to lead the way and act as a pathfinder. By working with a middleman such as a broker or agent, contacts and experience will be very profitable and comforting now, and your partner will help you save time by offering superb contacts.
In truth, partnering with others will be helpful in many aspects of life, and being a Libra, you are a master at the give and take necessary in any kind of twosome collaboration. You won't always have this level of help. By early June, this thick concentration of planets in Aries will have dispersed, and the situations will change and bring your attention elsewhere. During this period when you have help standing by, ask for it.
Keep in mind at all times that this will be a month for planning, not one for signing contracts or making major launches. Mercury will be retrograde in your partnership sector most of the month, until April 23. This will increase the chances of making a wrong assumption or of having a miscommunication. It also means that basic conditions are shifting rapidly, but you won't see in which direction things are heading until late April or May. Take your time, and make no final decisions until after April 23.
In love, with six heavenly bodies shining in your marriage house, you may be thinking of getting engaged. Again, if possible, wait until later in the month to do so or to schedule your grand announcement in May for best results. If you are getting married this year, it will be because you know you want to be married, for you want to build something greater than you can alone - a stable life together, and possibly the addition of children. If you are married already, your partner will be making the headlines in your life - listen up, because he or she will have plenty of news to share.
Single? You will see Neptune, planet of glamour and dreams, leave your house of true love for the first time since 1998. Neptune will be back to your romantic house in August, but for now, you'll have a much clearer vision of what you need and want in a partner. You are growing more practical and realistic, and although that may not sound very romantic, it is, for being this way will foster long-term love.
Creatively, you will be on fire on April 17 and 20. Be sure to set aside time on these days to do something special.
No matter what your status or what you do for a living, the full moon in Libra on April 17 will bring many elements of your life in focus. Suddenly you'll know precisely what you need to do - and when!

In this extraordinary month, with six heavenly bodies in your partnership sector, a sweetheart, spouse, or business partner will turn the key in your life. Watch developments that occur in the two weeks following the new moon, April 3.
On April 3, Mars will meet with Uranus, and it will be hard not to pick a fight with your closest partner. Knowing this, however, proceed with caution.
Protect your health all month. You are under a lot of strain, and the help you are getting to further your goals will be a blessing. Don't take it for granted.
Neptune's brief move out of Aquarius into Pisces from April 4 to August 4 will be very helpful to see a love relationship with greater truth and clarity.
The full moon in Libra on April 17 will clarify many things, and even inspire you deeply, in love.
A creative project will go exceedingly well on April 17 and 20.
Pluto will go retrograde from April 9 onward, so it looks like a home, family, or real estate project will have to go on the back burner if it is not finished yet. Plan to resume in the fall, any time after September 16.
