If life has felt out of control this week, Friday's astrology provides some sanity.
By Aria Gmitter — Written on Apr 23, 2021
Your horoscope for today, April 23, 2021, is here with an astrology forecast for all zodiac signs starting this Friday.
We are all trying our best to avoid being bullish while the Sun slowly works its way through the second astrology house.
This is the time to make money, and if you have been hoping to get some additional coin in your pocket - whether it be real dollars or crypto, this is the month to jump on board and get busy.
Taurus season will last until May 20th, 2021, and the Moon will be in Virgo, so getting home projects ready for the weekend is blessed by the cosmos.
Don't get worried if you see your investments take a big dip in the stock market. With the planet of communication getting closer to Uranus who rules the internet, there may be moments of instability related to the web.
Since Venus and the Sun are also involved, we may see some rumors about the food industry. Imported goods and problems with the economy may come to the light too. The Virgo Moon wants what's healthiest for us all, so she's in communication with Uranus in Taurus, and changes that organize our world are on the agenda for the day.
Overall, communication and intimate interpersonal relationships are stable and harmonious for most zodiac signs, and this is where to take solace when you need a break from life and want to hang on to something you can depend on.

Your zodiac sign's daily horoscope for Friday, April 23, 2021.
Aries (March 21 - April 19)
Determination gets an emotional calling card as Mars enters the zodiac sign of Cancer, your solar house of home, and the family.
If ever you needed a reason to focus on your loved ones, you may feel this transit hits you right in the feels.
You may eagerly turn toward financially providing for the needs of yourself and others to ensure a sense of monetary security is present before the summer.
Mars in Cancer can make you a bit sensitive about things that ordinarily you would not give much time or weight to.
However, the next few weeks can feel like a purification time for your life in ways that impact your loved ones more than you know.
Taurus (April 20 - May 20)
Your tone and delivery may come across as strong and passionate as you get used to Mars changing signs.
Mars enters the zodiac sign of Cancer, your solar house of communication, and this is the time to network and help yourself get to a goal that may involve work, a lifestyle change, or something highly personal to you.
Try not to get into heated debates via text messages, and when you're in the car with a loved one think twice about bringing up sensitive matters while stuck in traffic.
There's a lot of time to really get to the heart of an important matter, so why rush it? With Venus in your sign, aim to be a peacemaker, and show your love in every situation when you can.
Gemini (May 21 - June 20)
Love your enemies is a motto to subscribe to while Venus is in Taurus, but when it comes to where you may find the warzone work could be the place you feel most uncertain while Neptune remains in Pisces.
Even at home, there can be tense eruptions. Mars enters the zodiac sign of Cancer, your solar house of money and personal property.
Arguments about money, who owns what, or should control the way things are paid and handled can be battlegrounds that you did not expect but may want to prepare for.
Thankfully, Saturn and Jupiter in your solar house of higher learning help you to work your way through even the toughest situations because you'll learn through each interaction that's negative and not as positive as you'd like it to be.
Keep in touch with your best spiritual practice as well to help you feel grounded when you have those Twilight Zone moments.
Cancer (June 21 - July 22)
The Moon spends the day in Virgo, so you are likely to feel caught up in your inner thoughts and have strong feelings.
With the Sun and Mercury highlighting friendships, your best friend or a strong mentor can be the safest place to express what you're thinking.
And when Mars enters the zodiac sign of Cancer, your solar house of identity, this is the time to act on them - or at least it may seem. You have
Leo (July 23 - August 22)
It's not unusual for someone to both admire and be a bit jealous of your style, poise, and grace.
Not everyone can pull off the same level of flare, and when you are in your zone, you are confident - and this can be intimidating to some.
So, when Mars enters the zodiac sign of Cancer, your solar house of hidden enemies, the feeling that you've got a green-eyed foe in your life can be apparent.
This relationship can be both challenging and helpful to you, and Jupiter in your partnerships sector can show you how to make the most out of this situation, even if it feels like you shouldn't have to bend over backwards to make things work.
Virgo (August 23 - September 22)
Life can feel complicated as you try to keep things organized while the Moon spends the day in your sign.
However, there are a few extenuating circumstances that are out of your control that can bring disorder to your day.
Uranus in Taurus speaking to the Moon may shake things up a bit and despite your best efforts life *feels* out of sorts. So, try to be both flexible and open-minded in all situations.
Libra (September 23 - October 22)
Finally, a boost of energy comes to you to help you reach a big and important goal in your life.
With the Sun in Aries for the last month, you have felt like it has been you vs the world.
But now that your ruling planet, Venus is home in Taurus, there's an air of optimism that's so contagious it's hard to conceal that you feel better already.
Now that you're all rested up, Mars enters the scene and revives your desire to get things done.
Mars in the zodiac sign of Cancer, your solar house of career and social status, can help you to push through a barrier at work that helps you show you're really at the top of your game after all.
Scorpio (October 23 - November 21)
There's so much still to learn about life and love, and your mind is wide open to explore what's going on in the world, yourself, and others.
While Venus, Mercury, and the Sun are in your relationship sector, it's the perfect time to go all in.
But trust your instincts when you're pursuing things that you want because Mars, your ancient ruler is in intuitive Cancer, making your awareness strong, too.
Sagittarius (November 22 - December 21)
Fighting about things will do you no good. Your honesty may rock the boat when you share what it is that you see happening in others.
Mars enters the zodiac sign of Cancer, your solar house of shared resources, but with Mercury in Taurus, you're likely to call things out without really caring what others think of you.
This can be a time for you to purge your thoughts and ideas. In fact, that's the pressure you feel while Saturn is in your communication sector, and there's so much to learn through the process. You may be thinking, why not?
Capricorn (December 22 - January 19)
You'll be jumping into things with both feet when Mars enters the zodiac sign of Cancer, your solar house of commitments. Even you with your pragmatic ways will have difficulty resisting the wind of change.
Venus in your romance sector can have you hopeful for love, even if there's no one you really like in sight. You may get a fateful turn this year though, so remain optimistic.
Jupiter in Aquarius has your back bringing good fortune to your workplace or perhaps when you're standing in the grocery aisle and a conversation strikes up with a stranger.
Aquarius (January 20 - February 18)
Cleaning sprees, getting things organized and ready for the rest of the year is in the works as motivational Mars slips into your sector of daily work.
You can expect to be busy, perhaps bogged down by the details for the rest of the year, however because of the weight of Saturn in your sign until December.
This is not a time to fret or worry that you can't 'do it all'. Leaning on family may be helpful, and encourages while Mercury is in your sector of the home.
Pisces (February 19 - March 20)
Let that dreamy side of you break free. Bring out the markers, stickers, and photos to create a special collage.
It's time to fuel your imagination in preparation for Mars entering the zodiac sign of Cancer - your solar house of creativity.
You're full of ideas and so many of them need to be put on paper. This is the weekend to put last-minute touches on your vision board and to put it up so you can visualize what you want with clarity.
