Susan Miller's Sagittarius Horoscope for April 2018

You'll be eager to socialize, relax, enjoy some romance, and even travel, but everything this month, really everything, depends on money and cash flow. Just recently, a matter involving friends or a grand event put you among many happy people, because the full moon on March 31st reached its fullness, just one day before April. If nothing happens on March 31st, it might happen in the first four days of April.

The full moon on March 31st is flawed. Saturn and Mars in Capricorn at 8 degrees are both sending angry rays to the full moon at 10 degrees Libra, while the Sun is in Aries on the opposite side of the sky. Saturn, the judge and teacher, and Mars, the planet of action and energy, are both currently in your second house of income, expenses, and wages. So it's clear that money is at the heart of it all. You keep asking yourself, can I afford this? Ever since Mars arrived in Capricorn on March 17, it has been forcing you to increase your spending. If you are concerned about the speed at which you are spending money, remember that after May 15, Mars will leave Capricorn and enter Aquarius, and your spending will slow down.

Saturn and Mars are moving side by side in your second house. This is a strange combination, as they will form an exact mathematical angle on April 2nd. Mars is a fiery and fierce star, while Saturn is a cold and icy star. Mars wants you to act quickly, furiously, and decisively, while Saturn will pull you back and rethink every step. You may temporarily feel stuck and unsure of where to go. This phase will soon pass.

There is a side effect of the conjunction of Saturn and Mars on April 2. This is a classic traumatic aspect, and you may fall or be injured in other ways, so you need to protect your bones, especially your knees and teeth. If a tooth feels strange, especially after eating something hot, it's time to see a dentist before things get worse. Also, do not sign any contracts or give verbal consent to new deals on April 2 or in the early days of April. I say this for another reason.

Mercury is retrograde in Aries this month, from March 22nd to April 15th. This could have all sorts of different little effects. You may have miscommunication with a date or child, or receive mixed messages. If you are undergoing the expensive medical procedure of in vitro fertilization, it would be best to do it on April 23rd when Mars and your ruling planet, Jupiter, are in sync in late June. Or you can do it next month, but of course your doctor must agree and your menstrual cycle allows such adjustment.

A creative project you're very much looking forward to may encounter delays, redesigns, or other adjustments, but you'll be able to sort it out quickly. The hard part about Mercury retrograde is that, dear Sagittarius, Mercury rules your tenth house of career and reputation, so until Mercury turns direct on April 15, you may feel that progress is too slow. This will change, so keep the faith.
