We’re constantly fascinated by what our zodiac sign says about our lives, whether it's which signs are most compatible or how each sign handles conflict in relationships. That's why Bustle has enlisted Mecca Woods, a New York City-based astrologer of MyLifeCreated.com, to tell us all about how astrology is affecting our lives each week. This week's topic: where to meet people IRL this weekend (April 22-23) during Bustle's App-less April.
If you're looking for love IRL this weekend and participating in Bustle's App-less April, a challenge to delete your dating apps for a month and focus on offline dating, the universe has got your back. The nurturing Moon spends nearly the entire weekend in romantic Pisces, which is sure to have us in the mood to gaze in the eyes of a potential love interest. Saturday is especially dreamy as the Moon meets up with Neptune in Pisces sometime in the late afternoon which is perfect for catching a matinee movie, strolling by the ocean side, or cooking up an intimate picnic for two. By Sunday morning, the attraction in the air grows stronger as the Moon in Pisces meets up with sexy Pluto in Capricorn. If we're looking for a romantic vibe that lingers on the skin or in our hearts, a Moon-Pluto connection will give us that and more.
However, there is one glitch to be aware of and that's when the Pisces Moon squares off with no-nonsense Saturn late Sunday afternoon. Under this transit we may feel like we're being denied of love, affection, or intimacy. The best way to use this aspect is to turn up the self-love as needed and recognize when we may be giving too much of ourselves to someone that may not be worthy of our time. Things get back on track though later in the afternoon when the Moon syncs up with Venus in Pisces. Having these two together could make for a soulmate connection or two.

This weekend was made for taking it easy and letting your imagination free, which means you should be on the lookout for others doing the same. A photography or art class could introduce you to someone new, while something Zen like yoga could also strike up a love match. Go with your gut.
You could meet someone this weekend while hanging out with friends or volunteering for a great cause. Overall, the key to meeting people this weekend is getting out and striking up conversations with others that are intimate and genuine. Being present to the moment is sexy.
A company event or business lunch could spark a romance this weekend. Though it may not necessarily be with someone you work with it could just as well happen on your way there or coming back. The point is to remain open to love as it sometimes strikes you in the most strangest of places.
This one of the more divine weekends for you when it comes to love as you find it when you follow your heart. Perhaps that may be boarding a plane, train, or catching the next bus out of town. Either way, your next romance begins when you open yourself up to new experiences.
A workshop at an adult toy store, a horror film festival, or a rock concert could be the way to go this weekend if you're looking to turn up the heat on your love life. You can fly solo if you're feeling fearless as your magnetism is on ten now. If intimacy is what you've been craving, you'll find it.
An art gallery or fashion event could be where it's at this weekend, as well as a another upscale social gathering. Though if you've been feeling a little lackluster in the love department, perhaps working with a relationship coach could help you make a big breakthrough and get yourself back out there.
You attract love best this weekend by partaking in self-care, which means that whether it's running errands, grabbing groceries to cook yourself a healthy meal, or sweating it out in the gym, nothing is sexier than someone who feels good and treats themselves good too. You never know who's watching!
Romance is definitely in the air, which means you shouldn't even think about being a couch potato this weekend. Instead, make some plans with friends to get out and enjoy a night or two on the town. When you're in the throes of having fun, others want to have fun with you. Smile!
A gathering or party at a friend's house could bring you closer to your next great love affair, which means this is not the weekend to stay home. Towards the end of the weekend, romance could also be sweet at a concert or on the dance floor. If you're feeling a bit shy, grab a friend.
Hitting up a booking signing, media event, PR party, or workshop could be just the thing you need to meet someone new. People enjoy your down to earth style and sharp mind and there's no better aphrodisiac than that. Make it a plus one with a friend and have them talk you up to a cute stranger.
Hanging with friends could bring you steps closer to love while visiting a neighborhood spot could also offer you a shot a romance. Meanwhile, hitting the streets to shop (and look good while you're doing it) could put you in the right place at the right time to catch someone's eye.
It's all about you this weekend with nearly half the cosmos in Pisces, giving you the power to bewitch exponentially. Wherever you choose to go this weekend, you shouldn't have a hard time meeting anyone. So make sure you're dressed to impress and to capture hearts. You've got this!
