Sagittarius Monthly Horoscope

Words are weaponized at the April 26 Mars-Pluto standoff 

Turn up the volume again Sagittarius—but a notch at a time only! On April 18, go-getter Mars exits Cancer and your intense eighth house and moves into much sunnier skies until June 17. As the red planet cruises through Leo, your optimism and zest for life return.

But later this month, you’ll need to watch your words. On April 26, Mars forms a volatile opposition to powermonger Pluto, which happens once every two years. As they wage a showdown across your communication axis, you could find yourself locked in a power struggle—whether that’s a heated argument or a simmering silent treatment. 

But before you hit that “block” button, put yourself in the other person’s shoes. Do they have any kind of valid point here? Or are they simply projecting their own baggage onto you? Both scenarios are equally likely. Planetary oppositions have a way of forcing things out into the open. Brewing tension could erupt into a stingingly straightforward conversation. Think before you speak: Your goal here is to clear the air—not to wipe out an important relationship.
