Aquarius, take a deep breath and relax. While the Sun makes its annual visit to Taurus and your domestic fourth house, you’re on a belated hibernation schedule until May 20. Nest and rest, and schedule plenty of quality time at home, to soak up some peaceful spring feelings.

So, unless you have an immediate need for change, you might be better off recording your ideas on a Pinterest board rather than painting a wall or getting new furniture on the spur of the moment. Planting a vegetable garden (or a herb box for the windowsill) and switching to seasonally suitable linens could bring out your inner Martha Stewart.

And, while that enthusiasm is tough to suppress, it has the potential to be incredibly contagious if given in the appropriate dose. Just make sure you don’t come across as pushy or confrontational in your efforts to get people to join you. Inquire and listen more than you speak.
