Use this opportunity to hear the other person out and show your vulnerabilities.  Since this conjunction is in Aries, be sure to remain calm and patient in your dealing with others, and resist the urge to speak too impulsively.

Later in the month, on April 20th, 2024, Jupiter will reach a conjunction with Uranus in Taurus at 21 degrees Taurus. Expect unexpected announcements and surprises on this day. There will be an electricity in the air on this day, and it is best to leave your agenda as flexible as possible.
