EarthSky News: Mercury best in April 2023, for northern viewers
Mercury greatest elongation April 11
Where to look: As April begins, Mercury is low in the west after sunset, below the sky’s brightest planet Venus. With each passing evening, Mercury will pop into view up higher in the western twilight. It’ll soon become easy to see – if you look west soon after sunset – and if you’re in the Northern Hemisphere.

Inner Journey:
HOW DO YOU WORK WITH ANGER?
“Character isn’t inherited. One builds it daily by the way one thinks and acts, thought by thought, action by action. If one lets fear or hate or anger take possession of the mind, they become self-forged chains.”
— Helen Douglas
How do you feel about anger, in yourself and in others?
How do you deal with it?
Anger is powerful energy. If we are afraid of this energy, we may attempt to deny or hide it. And when we lack control of the energy of anger, we impose it on other people or things.
The ways we react to anger usually reflect how we experienced anger as children and how our own anger when we were young was handled by the adults at the time.
In reality, anger, like any emotion, brings us information. It tells us how we feel about what is being experienced. If we receive anger’s message and learn more about ourselves, the energy will pass.
“Too often we underestimate how quickly our feelings are going to change because we underestimate our ability to change them.”
— David Gilbert

A Note from the Universe
For you, it’s never really been all about the cottage at the beach, a multimillion-dollar bank account, or the adoration of fans, has it?
Okay, sure, you could roll with it…
Instead, it’s been about having a life that allows for the expression of your creativity and exchanging your rare and special gifts with the world. To be yourself, no matter the cost, laughing often, and knowing to your core the meaning of love, friendship, and hot chocolate on a freezing cold night.
Just wanted you to know that I know this about you. And I think it’s just great how you’re imagining the latter when you visualize these days. Especially the laughter and love.
Pretty much got you pegged, huh?

Daily Tarot: The Tower
People may be expecting or needing you to be laid-back and easy to deal with but your own inclinations may make you seem more difficult and demanding. You may see yourself as just being direct while others consider you as being tactless. Save yourself a lot of grief and use extra care with your words and actions. If someone gets bent out of shape, try to catch it instantly and stop it as soon as you can.
