Today’s daily horoscope for April 18, 2024

Fire Trine: Flames Entwine

The Leo moon has a parting gift for Aries sun on the final full day of its Aries journey. The fire sign trine is a match lit by another match — a single flame’s sputtering surge. We flare with boldness and courage to do what was left undone. As Alfred, Lord Tennyson wrote in his timeless poem “Ulysses,” let us endeavor “to strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.”

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Keeping a secret can feel lonely, even if the secret is something good. As energizing as the anticipation may be, that doesn’t change an overwhelming want to share so you’re not the only one suspended in the quiet tension.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You’ve earned awards, worked for badges, triumphed for trophies, and yet you’re still so humble. You can now put those prizes to work for you. They’ll make your path a little easier if you dare to showcase them.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). The mere whisper of festivity sets you in motion, celebrating the special aspects of whatever is before you. You give yourself over to enthusiasm and your unabashed celebration of life will be a source of joy for others.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). Of all the things to risk, rejection is among the best things to put on the line. Sure, it stings for a second, but it’s over before you know it and you’re moving on with good information to more promising prospects. And anyway, most people say “yes” to you today.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You’re ready to advance, yet your pace must allow others to follow. Leading from too far ahead isn’t leading at all. In the best-case scenario, it breeds stragglers; in the worst-case, it’s straight-up abandonment.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Self-reflection aimed at the big picture will bring you good fortune. If you could hire the best coach in the world to lead your life, what do you think the first thing they would change would be?

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You’re a competent leader with a tough group to manage. Many won’t have the bandwidth to pay attention and follow along until you give them a reason to. Consider turning it into a game by introducing consequences and prizes.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You’re working for the cause, not the credit. This is very lucky for you now because your cause will be well-served, but the credit may never come, at least not from the direction you think it will.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Restraint is dignified. What people say and do isn’t always readily comprehensible, so it is prudent not to respond immediately. But do respond at some point. Prolonged suppression will lead to eventual eruption.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Good decisions can lead to responsibilities and limits. You can’t always go where you want to go or do what you want to do whenever you want, but you can plan for unstructured days and make sure nothing stops you from taking them.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). The good news and the bad news are the same: people aren’t paying attention today. This makes it an ideal time to practice new behaviors, styles, presentations and the like without worrying what people will think.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Balance finds itself, often awkwardly, through the series of adjustments you make when you feel you’re about to topple. In a sense, imbalance is the very thing that teaches you just how to live in grace.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (April 18). You’re now at the threshold of transformation, becoming the leader your people need. Even as you live your truth, take charge and demonstrate courage, you still retain an attractive openness and warmth. Tender relationships are the beating heart of the year. More highlights: a promotion, a blank check and 10 sacred meetings. Scorpio and Sagittarius adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 3, 33, 1, 18 and 40.
