\"Astrology<\/a>April Fool’s Day always puts me on edge. I do have a good sense of humor, but I just don’t like being tricked. And this year if you try to trick me, well, the joke is on YOU!<\/p>\n

That’s because the Astrology of April Fool’s Day 2013 is setting us up for a pranks-gone-wrong comedy of errors.<\/p>\n

See, there’s a “Void of Course Moon” today, which happens when the Moon has no more aspects to make with other planets before it enters the next zodiac sign. So the Moon just kind of meanders without any directed energy.<\/p>\n

Whenever there’s a Void of Course Moon, people have less focus and they are unlikely to do things their best or finish the things they start during this time.<\/p>\n

And that means that if you’re planning some kind of elaborate April Fool’s Day joke to play on me or anyone else, it could quite possibly flop. Either it won’t be understood, or your timing will be off and the whole thing will backfire.<\/p>\n

That’s the bad news. The good news is that the Moon is in sunny Sagittarius and there’s an optimistic vibe all around, so those of us who do get tricked will at least be in a good mood about it.<\/p>\n

Enjoy your April Fool’s Day!<\/p>\n
