Pisces Horoscope for April 2015

By Susan Miller
As you begin April, one of the year's toughest eclipses, April
4, will appear in Libra, 14 degrees, to light your eighth
house of other people's money. You have two houses that
rule finances, the second house that rules your salary, but
it will be your eighth house that will be lit up, the one that
covers large debts, such as for student loans, a mortgage,
taxes, credit cards, and the like.
This house does not only cover outgo, but also income, so it
is where you would get a large bank loan, financial aid, a
new mortgage, an inheritance, bonus, large commission or
licensing fee, or a court settlement in your favor, as a few
examples.
The reason I am concerned about this particular eclipse is
that Uranus will challenge it from across the skies in Aries,
a 180-degree confrontation. Uranus will conjunct the Sun
exactly and oppose the total eclipse of the moon in Libra
precisely. Uranus is currently in your other financial house,
your second house of salary. This suggests you will be
surprised or shocked by news that the eclipse brings,
possibly because of a big expense you will need to cover,
and news of this will seem to come out of nowhere, and
you may have a big expense.
With Uranus you never know what to expect, so it is
useless to try to guess. It's always what you would never
look at as a possibility that turns out to be what happens.
You may want to check to make sure you are not a victim
of identity theft this month too, as eclipses will bring to
your doorstep outside events happening in the world over
which you have no control. Keep your possessions near, and
when traveling make sure you have everything with you at
all times. If you love a certain pair of sunglasses, leave
them home and wear the other pair you have that you like,
but don't actually love as well, when you are near the
eclipse, just to be sure you don't lose them.

To be fair, I have to include the possibility that financial

news would be positive because Uranus IS the planet of all
things unexpected. It seems unlikely, however, as this total
eclipse is also in hard angle to Pluto, a financial planet. As
you see, you have two major planets causing stress (stay
with me, the good news is coming). Pluto is located in your
friendship house, so you may have a disagreement about
the amount of money a friend is asking you to spend, say,
as a member of the wedding or another social event you
are involved in with her. (Lunar eclipses tend to be
feminine, so I refer to your friend as a female.)
Still, there are lots and lots of reason for a happy resolve to
what will come up. Jupiter, the great planet of good fortune,
will be in the ideal place to help you, your sixth house of
work assignments, and beam precise mathematical beams
to the Sun and Uranus. It seems a new project may come
in to give you the money you need quite out of the blue, or
if you are self-employed, a large check may now arrive for
the past assignment you had completed, and that check will
be there just in the nick of time.
There is another reason to be optimistic. Libra's ruler,
Venus, rules an eclipse in Libra. My job is to look and see
what condition Venus is in at eclipse time, and lo and
behold, she will be super-friendly to Pluto. This is no small
advantage! To sum this up, the final resolve of this episode
will benefit you and possibly transform you. Although you
may panic with the news of the eclipse, if you keep
breathing, in a day or two, some lucky breaks should begin
to happen.
There is still another reason to keep smiling. Jupiter has
been retrograde since early December 2014, but will go
direct on April 8. This is great news, for almost immediately
Jupiter will work harder for you and you will notice the
change. Whenever a big planet goes from retrograde to
direct, watch the three days (before and after) that
surround the date, specifically April 8. The universe will
give you subtle clues to the way Jupiter will go about
helping you.

The eighth house that rules other people's money also rules
surgery. This is because this house is also the house of
transformation of the body, so the surgeon removes the
part of you that is not well, and aims to transform you back
to your healthy self. So in a completely different
manifestation, rather than hear you have an expense or
owe someone money, you may hear that you need a
medical procedure or operation quite suddenly. (A large
sum of money may enter the conversation when your
health insurance company tells you that your surgery will
be covered.)
Again, having Jupiter near will be a big plus, because
Jupiter is also called the great healer and has even been
attributed to creating miracles. Jupiter is also your ancient
ruler, dear Pisces, before Neptune was discovered, so
astrologers look at both. This means Jupiter has a stronger
than usual effect on your chart, and this is all good news.
This eclipse is 14 degrees Libra, an air sign, and Jupiter is
moving at 12 degrees Leo, a fire sign that works so well
with Libra's air. Jupiter will also be at an ideal angle to the
Sun on April 2, but stay within orb during and just after the
eclipse. The Sun rules your solar sixth house of health, and
holds good fortune Jupiter. Excellent. Venus, as mentioned
before, will be in ideal angle to Pluto, powerhouse planet of
transformation, and at the same time, your modern ruler,
Neptune, will be friendly to Pluto too. You have everything
going for you, dear Pisces!
As with any full moon - this is a full moon total eclipse things come to fullness and crystallize. A big part of the job
of an eclipse is to bring a floodlight of information and truth
to a situation that you didn't have previously. The eclipse
will make sure it gets your attention so that you can act on
it immediately. You cannot ignore an eclipse - it makes us
drop everything and attend to the topic at hand. Surely,
when there is an eclipse, timetables get moved up radically,
so it's best to keep your schedule flexible at eclipse time,
and not be out of town at the time. Things you planned on
doing eventually, or a few years from now, happen almost

instantly if an eclipse is looking at that situation. There is

always a feeling of moving on fast forward.
As you see, you have nothing to worry about, dear Pisces.
If you need a medical procedure, Jupiter is sitting next to
you like a big old lion that loves you and will not let anyone
or anything hurt you. If the problem is money, you will find
a way to pay the bill.
Why am I so optimistic about your finances? I have my
reasons, which I will now share with you. If you need
money early in the month, see if you can borrow the
amount you need, for the best new moon of the year for
you to generate more income is due later this month.
The new moon in Aries is due April 18, and it is friendly (it
is a regular new moon, not an eclipse). As soon as it
arrives, start looking for ways to add assignments that
would bring in generous fees. Many Pisces are selfemployed, for as a Pisces, you tend to be highly creative
and don't like to be boxed in to work during regular
business hours. You often work all night when you are
inspired, turning out ideas that even amazes you. This
month you can find the lucrative type of assignments you
need to cover any expense that may have come up earlier.
If you work as an employee in a large company in a very
structured type of job, such as in marketing, you will find
you have more than enough clients who will need your
help. You will feel busy and very appreciated.
A new moon in Aries suggests you may be working on a
large, entrepreneurial project that is completely new to
you. It may be involved with brand new technology that
would need special software that you may write or direct
others to write. Or, if you work for others, you may be able
to charge overtime for your work or ask for a raise.
Take note, dear Pisces, a new moon in the second house of
earned income, as you will have April 18, is the very best
time of the year to ask for a raise. Gather up your courage
and ask just after that new moon arrives. A new moon will

always give you a portal of two weeks in which to work

within, and the actions you take in that window of time will
have the power to affect you positively for an entire year,
until the next new moon comes by to replenish the energy
in 2016. A new moon's energy is strongest just after it
appears, and then gradually declines as you get farther
away from the date the new moon appeared. That's why I
don't want you to wait - ask or that raise on April 20, or
better yet, April 21, a four-star financial day for you.
If you are waiting for a client to come back to you to name
a price for a big assignment you are involved in that will
involve fees and possible commission or royalty, sign the
deal after the new moon April 18, if possible.
Month after month I have been looking at your chart, and I
am seeing writing / communicating coming up as an
important skill you seem to have developed that is being
lauded and rewarded. This month, that trend toward
communication is being encouraged even more, as Mars,
the energy planet of the solar system, will be in Taurus and
your third house of communication all month, and into next
month too, ending May 11.
The writing you are doing need not be a manuscript (or it
could be), but rather a plan for a new product you are
bringing to market, or a report on a series of appearances
you will be asked to do for your client. You may have a new
blog you are ready to show the world, or clients may be
asking you to go on television and be a spokesperson for
them.
One sterling day I would like you to note will be April 21,
when Mars will reach out to Pluto, which is in your house of
community, friendships, and humanitarian efforts, making it
a superb day for any kind of appearance, or to hand in an
important document or finished software code or report.
Use this day to present to a client or have an interview. You
will come off strong, enthusiastic, and an independent
thinker with great ideas - all of which you are.

The third house also rules travel, so you may be visiting

other towns and cities not too far away. Get that suitcase
out from under the bed, dear Pisces - it looks like you will
need it. You may travel to do a face-to-face with a client, as
it also appears you may be asked to sign a contract at
some point of the month. It's a good time to do so, as next
month, Mercury will retrograde, May 18 to June 11. Get as
much done now as possible, as you will be productive,
especially in the second half of April.
You also may be having a lot more contact with your sister
or brother in April. Mars can sometimes cause a little
conflict, so you might want to be sure to avoid hot button
subjects that always set off your sibling, at least until Mars
leaves in mid-May!
You appear to be thinking about fixing up your apartment
or house, and that trend will grow later next month when
Mars will enter Gemini May 11 through June 24.
In the meantime, you may find space or a gorgeous piece
of furniture on April 22 when Venus, by then in your home
sector, gets a lovely beam from Jupiter. This would also be
a perfect day to sell or buy a house, or to lease one,
because you are likely to make a good deal.
The last weekend of April would be ideal for spontaneous
travel, April 25-26, when Venus and Uranus stir up fun. If
you don't want to go out of town, and even better idea
would be to invite guests over for a party - it would be a
big hit if given over this weekend. Conversation would
bubble up among your guests in a very lively way - friends
will be talking about your party for a long time afterward!

Summary

From time to time, you have had to focus on money

management, although you would prefer to leave that job
to others, and remain thinking about the important creative
projects that you are working on now. When a strong lunar
eclipse comes by like the one due April 4, you won't have
much of a choice - money will be your focus. The funds you
will be thinking about will center on those covered by the
eighth house of "other people's money" - which refers to
credit, bank and student loans, insurance payouts,
mortgage, taxes, inheritance, court settlements, and
division of property in a divorce, and so forth.
At first the news of this eclipse may shock you, for this full
moon eclipse will directly oppose Uranus, the planet of all
things unanticipated, and that is not an easy aspect.
Although this eclipse may bring fabulously positive news
about money (Uranus is unpredictable, so news might be
good), it is more likely to bring just the opposite, news that
makes you feel like you just put all your fingers in two
electrical sockets. However, surrounding this very jarring
aspect will also be a plethora of positive planets to help the
situation.
Jupiter, giver of gifts and luck, will be in very positive angle
to the Sun in April's first week, suggesting if you do need
better cash flow, if you are self-employed or in sales, you
will likely be able to generate abundant fees from new
business. You may also have luck in finding side jobs done
on weekends or through overtime work.
Jupiter has been operating in low key because it has been
retrograde from last December 8, but will turn direct on
April 8. This means this planet of happiness and financial
gain will work much harder for you from now on, and you
will be heartened by the difference. Jupiter is your ancient
ruler of Pisces, so Jupiter's turn direct is significant for you
- better days ahead!
You may need surgery this month, so perhaps a procedure
you put off will need to be addressed now. Do not concern

yourself one bit - you have Jupiter, the great healer to help
you.
You may also get a sudden influx of cash on or near April
26 when Venus and Uranus will work together to see you
get a check. The sudden money that appears to be coming
in to you near April 26 may come from a parent or other
family member, or through the sale of property.
You will need or want to travel several times this month,
thanks to the tour of Mars through Taurus until May 11.
Your main reason for going could be personal, possibly to
see a family member, or to visit a friend, or for business.
One of your best days to be on the road will be April 21,
when Mars and Pluto will be in sync.
Travel will also be linked to romance, either to meet
someone new in a town close to yours (possibly during a
weekend getaway) or to fan the fires of love you share with
your partner. If you are attached, plan to leave town for
private quality time together. Venus in Taurus will make
those trips fun, so go - even if it can only be an overnight
trip, go sometime in the first ten days of April.
Your home is getting more attention from you, and you
may be planning a change in decor soon. Venus is now in
your home sector, April 11 to May 7, a great time to begin
choosing the colors, fabrics, tiles, wood finishes, and so
forth for your scheme. By June you will be deep in the
process of renovating, painting rooms, doing repairs and
maintenance, or moving. This month, with such a friendly
Venus, you can start the plans moving forward. Your very
best day to make other design choices will be when Venus
communicates with Jupiter, April 22.
Consider giving a party at home over the weekend of April
25-26 - it's sure to be a hit, thanks to Venus in ideal angle
to Uranus.
A great day to focus on artistic endeavors will be April 29,
when the Sun and your modern ruler, Neptune, will conjoin.
You'll be a virtual idea factory, so set your sights on doing

what you do best, coming up with new artistic ideas and

concepts.

Dates to Note: Pisces

April 2 brings a good day, when news about health, fitness,
and work assignments go very well. Your creative thinking
will be hitting high points, so brainstorm!
The full moon lunar eclipse April 4 may bring a jarring,
unexpected expense. There seems no way around it, but it
also seems liable that you will have more money coming in
later in the month, so don't panic. Have a contingency plan.
It is alternatively possible that you will be interacting with
medical or dental personnel over the days near the eclipse
April 4.
You can open talks about making more money at the new
moon, April 18, the best of 2015.
Mars in Taurus will keep you working with great
concentration on writing, editing, or translation projects. If
you are an actor or host on TV, your skills will be valued.
Additionally, Jupiter will go direct on April 8, increasing the
pace of business even more. This planet of good fortune
has been languishing since early December 2014, but no
more. You will get full power from Jupiter from now on.
Venus will tour Gemini April 11 to May 7, and help you
make beautiful design choices for your home or vacation
property. Take special note of April 22, when Venus and
Jupiter will interact, presenting a great day to browse and
shop.

You have two days for exceptional creative brainstorming:

April 12 (Mars in perfect angle to Neptune) and April 29
(the Sun and Neptune in sublime harmony).
A great evening to see a friend to socialize or to attend a
professional mixer event, will be April 21, when Mars and
Pluto will work together.
Money may fly quite unexpectedly into your mailbox over
the mailbox on April 25-26.
