Capricorn Monthly Horoscope April 2009 | Astrology Zodiac Sign: Capricorn

(Dec 21 - Jan 20)

Pluto moves retro in your sign early this month, giving you opportunity number 1,098 to review your relationship choices, lifestyle choices, diets/exercise/torture sessions – you know, all the usual daily dramas. Only this time, you've got months to think a about doing things differently. If you look over at the guy you're having dinner with and realize that he's just as rude, gassy and drunk as the idiot you divorced last year, excuse yourself, get a cab and go home.

Pluto is all about learning from mistakes – not repeating them ad nauseam. The person that needs to make these inside out changes isn't the dumb date you chose – it's YOU! You may be better off alone. Ever thought about that? Your dog, cat or ferret might be a better companion – smarter and more loyal, too. It's time to make loads of peace with yourself – even if it means spending some time in the mountains in a private cabin.Actually, that sounds just about perfect.

The Full Moon on the 9th helps clarify goals and also reminds you how important true friends are. True friends can be more comforting than family members, as you well know. Mid April is a remarkably creative period for you. Ideas spring to mind. You see connections to disparate elements that never seemed apparent before. Now they do – and they make so much sense. You can manifest these brilliant ideas into art forms: music, writing, painting – dreams held to light.

Monthly touchstone: Aquamarine.
