Today’s daily horoscope for April 22, 2024

Pink Moon Pre-Show

Similar in the way that the darkest hour is just before dawn, the peak time for dramatic tension occurs just before the moon’s fullness. Between the three luminaries in water signs and the impending Pink Moon in Scorpio, all who swim will get wet. Is that an inconvenient part of the deal, or is it the perk that keeps us coming back for more?

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Some truths are like unremarkable socks. It’s likely everyone is wearing them, they do their job, and they draw no attention. Then there’s the truth that’s a statement sock. It’s a risk to mention, and yet you feel remiss if you don’t. It does, after all, exist to be seen.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). People understand you and respect the way you get to the point. They know what you want because you say it succinctly right up top and don’t make them wait or discover.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). When it shows up, willpower is a welcome friend, though you’ve noted it can be a fair-weather friend indeed. By now you’ve learned not to waste time waiting for it; instead, you dig for more reliable fuel, like need or even stronger motivations.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Anyone with a television remote is welcome to switch from sorrow to sorrow and will be at no loss for finding ever-new ones, as they are in constant rotation. But you’ve too many delights to turn your mind to now, and you’ll enjoy them wholly.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Because the purity of your intention is felt, you won’t need to think too much about how to approach things. The perfect words just come, the ideal people want to help, and loveliness will ring through all efforts.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Your energy will rev and dip. While it’s high, try new things, share with new people and work. When it’s down, rest. Don’t caffeinate and keep going until you burn out. Your subconscious mind needs a chance to integrate all you’ve learned.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You’ll be moved to do something unusual, outside the routine, out of the norm. You can always reinvent yourself, not just out of necessity but just for fun. Learning new facets of you allows you to experience new facets of life.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). It’s a game today, and knowing when to advance or retreat is part of it. Which way would be more appropriate? How should you fight the good fight?

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You’ve seen many kinds of praise, and because you’re doing praiseworthy things today, you’ll get at least two flavors: the kind aimed at getting a particular result (you’ll see through it) and the real deal (you’ll feel the love).

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). That thing you’re scared of? You’ll head straight into it, at first just to get it over with. Then you’ll do it again because it gets a little better every time. And you’ll repeat for good measure because bravery is your nature.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). There’s not one ideal future, but there are many that will make themselves known to you in glimpses as you peruse the various options of the day. You’ll get the very visceral sense you are building something, choice by choice.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Being careful with your money can make you feel like you don’t have enough, or it can make you feel like you’re in control and have plenty. Saving for something special is the frugality that gives a feeling of richness.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (April 22). Acting fast is your gift, and you’ll move on sweet investments and turn bright ideas into adventures. New guidelines come together for your relationships that work to keep you in good vibes and productive workflows. More highlights: a peaceful resolution, financial recompense and self-education you will later teach and/or publish. Scorpio and Aquarius adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 2, 22, 14, 40 and 16.

CELEBRITY PROFILES: Venus-ruled Taureans have a strong appreciation for sensual pleasures and indulgence. It’s easy to see in the work of Jack Nicholson the iconoclast whose on-screen persona often embodies elements of hedonism and sensuality, whether it’s through his charismatic performances or his characters’ lifestyles. Nicholson is known for taking on the world exclusively on his own terms. “I’m not good with being told,” Nicholson admitted, like a classic Taurus. “I just immediately start resisting the situation.”
