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 29-30) 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, here's what to expect from the cosmos. Saturday kicks off with the Moon still in chatty Gemini, which should have us in a fun and flirty mood. Towards the afternoon, the Moon continues to help things along meeting up with Mercury and Uranus in passionate Aries which should keep the energy high and the conversation going. Sociable gatherings should be a hit. By the late afternoon, the Gemini Moon brushes up against no-nonsense Saturn in Sagittarius, which could temporarily put a damper on the festivities.
The Moon squares of with Venus in Aries, which could have us feeling at odds with getting what we want and getting what we need.
However, the Moon slips into intimate Cancer by late Saturday evening, which should soften the mood. Though the cuddly and cozy vibe won't last for long as the Moon squares of with Venus in Aries, which could have us feeling at odds with getting what we want and getting what we need. By Sunday afternoon, things begin looking up again as the Cancer Moon syncs up with the sensual Taurus Sun, which should pave the way for genuine connections. Towards the evening, the romance in the air will be hard to miss as the affectionate Cancer Moon syncs up with dreamy Neptune in Pisces. An intimate date for two at a charming restaurant could be ideal. However, by the end of the night, the Moon squares off with Jupiter in relationship Libra, which suggests that we don't get too swept up in our feelings, especially when it comes to a budding love affair.

This weekend romance pops when you venture out to try or experience something new. It could be concert, a panel discussion, a bar crawl, or a workshop that paves the way to your next love. Meanwhile a trip to IKEA or another home goods store, could pleasantly surprise you. Be open!
You're no stranger to the finer things in life and this weekend that's no different. It's all about upscale and glam this weekend when it comes to meeting someone new. If the posh crowd is not your crowd, you could still win at romance browsing the shops or doing what you love — work.
An interactive activity that gets you up and moving is where it's at this weekend when it comes to meeting your next bae. Think along the lines of a sports club, rollerskating, paintball, laser tag, or an old-school arcade as options. Bring a friend or two along to keep the laughs and convo going.
All eyes are on you this weekend, so make sure you're looking and feeling your best. If you're stuck on where to go though, think of places you have yet to see as this weekend is about letting yourself go and having fun. Since water is the ultimate aphrodisiac, keep an eye out for a beach or poolside party too.
It's all about dialing it down this weekend. However, even though you may be chillin' behind the scenes, that doesn't mean you're out of luck when it comes to love. A meditation retreat, art gallery, painting class, or photography workshop could still bring the boys or girls to the yard. Have fun!
Between your friends and other people you know, there's a possibility that being with one of them in the right place at the right time could introduce you to a potential love match. For example, if a friend suggests volunteering at an animal shelter this weekend or attending a sci-fi con, you should go.
An unofficial sightseeing tour or day trip could expose you to a part of town or a part of the world that you've never been, giving you the opportunity to meet and connect with others along the way. So go ahead and be your wittiest, most charming self and make it your mission to meet someone new.
All signs point to go this weekend, as in go and get out of town. If love is what you’re after, traveling locally or abroad could mark the arrival of someone special in your life. If you're in school the college campus could be where it's at, while a crafts or cooking class could offer romantic options too.
Your magnetism is pretty high this weekend, which means you shouldn't have too much of a problem meeting others just about anywhere. All you need to do is stand there and be your sexy, intelligent, and goofy self. That said, make some eye contact with a cute stranger or two and get to talking.
You've got a lot of energy to burn off this weekend and one of the best ways to do that is by hitting the gym or a fitness class. Who knows? Your next love story could be just a kickboxing class away. Overall, the best things (including love) happen to you now, when you dare to shake up your routine.
You do best at love this weekend when you make yourself your first priority, which means doing something you enjoy, like taking a last minute trip out of town or letting loose on the dance floor could help ramp up your magnetism. Simply put: when you're turned on, the world turns on with you.
A party or gathering at the home of someone you know (or perhaps your own home) could bring love through a friendly introduction. Meanwhile, a night out with friends towards the end of the weekend could manifest a chance encounter with your next love interest. Plan to get off the couch.
