April Horoscopes
We’ve made our annual transition to spring and that means a fresh new start! For many signs, there will be some hiccups here and there as we get accustomed to dealing without the things, people and habits we were asked to let go of before the Spring Equinox on March 20th. But, with every ending comes a new beginning. Check out your sun, moon and rising sign to get a sense of what April has in store for you!
Aries: Welcome to your season! The start of spring means new opportunities and experiences are lining themselves up just for you. In fact, the beginning of April is the best time to get out there if you’re single and looking to mingle. You’ll be at the height of being your most funny, sexy and charming self, so find someone that matches your energy! Be aware though, that just because you see yourself at your best doesn’t mean some of your inner circle will feel the same way. You might be reevaluating some friendships as some rumors or suspicions rise up and make you question just how loyal your friends really are. Don’t believe everything you hear, and don’t let your fear get the best of you. How can you balance out your impulsive nature so that you follow your instincts, but don’t let it get the best of you? Good judgement is key here for big decisions coming up towards the end of the month.
Taurus: Love just might be in the air this month, Taurus! You’re looking and feeling really good, and you might be in the mood to both receive and give love! Beginning of the month is going to be a super social time for you, and that sometimes means excessive behavior, so if you have problems with spending, eating out, drinking, etc., make sure you have a plan set in mind to combat this.
Those that do end up in relationships this month or already are in a couple, be aware that some issues around power dynamics may come up. If there are insecurities surrounding your relationship, such as jealousy, these need to be addressed sooner rather than later, especially with Venus entering Taurus on April 14th. Things should change by the end of the month and get fun again, just keep in mind: all things are good in moderation! When things get tough this month, you shouldn’t isolate or get desperate; you just have to work a little harder, Taurus.
Gemini: If there’s something you’ve been thinking about learning and getting more involved in, this is the month to do it. Specifically, the beginning of April will be a really powerful time for you to put your gifts of intuition and communication to use — you might find it really easy to ask for what you want this time around! You’ll be pushed to action this month, so use that energy wisely. Think long-term — anything having to do with real estate, education or investments will be highly favored by the universe this April. If you have any big tests, possible negotiations or contract deals coming up, or even vacation plans, the middle of the month will be a fantastic time to take care of them all. With the universe in your favor this month, why not get out of your comfort zone and take a risk? Fortune favors the bold, Gemini!
Cancer: Something new is coming your way. For most, it’s a new job offer or promotion. For others, it’s possibly a new friend group. Either way, you’re beginning a fresh new phase of your life. The problem is, you can’t bring baggage into this new start! Take a look at your communication with loved ones, as relationship drama seems to be at the forefront for what will need to be handled this season. April is going to be a very busy month for you, Cancer, so the last thing you need is to stress over things that aren’t really that big of a deal in the grand scheme of things. Is there a reason why you don’t feel comfortable in certain friendships/relationships? Work on that.
Leo: Those that tried to form weapons against you will definitely not prosper this season, Leo! You are entering April with the confidence and drive that guarantee success. Don’t be surprised if your boss and others are suddenly showering you with compliments, as they are finally aware of how meaningful and powerful you really are. This season, dedicate yourself 100% to some of those goals you’ve been meaning to get around to, such as working out or travelling more often. If those goals get difficult to achieve, try doing them with friends! For those in relationships, try to work on your temper. You tend to see problems where they don’t actually exist and end up projecting onto loved ones when challenges come up. Take a breath before making any sudden moves or saying things you might regret. Learn to think before putting yourself in sticky situations. When your ruler, the Sun, enters Taurus on April 19th, what you’ll want most is stability and loyalty, and it will be hard to receive that if you don’t allow your partner room to breathe and make mistakes without getting chewed out.
Virgo: It’s time to bring small change into your life now so that you can prepare for big change coming in late April! Virgos, indulge in a new wardrobe, makeup, jewelry…you deserve to look and feel good! Plus, you really want to look your best as you will be meeting many new and influential people this April. In fact, an impromptu vacation or getaway might happen this month, so stay ready for new experiences to pop up. You may also want to reevaluate your daily routine; are you allowing room for joy and unexpected surprises to take place? Put some fun back in the agenda and loosen up a bit! Not every season in your life is meant for hard work. You deserve a break too, Virgo.
Libra: There’s a strong need here for you to take better control of your life. April is going to bring in a mix of unexpected events and curveballs, so you need to stay ahead of the game by learning to be more flexible! There will be times where you need to put yourself out there and be more assertive, and there will be days where you need to retreat, heal and get in tune with your body. Honor both of these types of days and show up. Release difficult emotions through outlets like exercise, art or even sex. Take some time to gather your thoughts before getting into a fight or responding to tense situations. Only you know what you need most, so honor that, Libra.
Scorpio: Take a moment to revisit what it is you truly want, Scorpio. Think about it in terms of your relationships, career path and ultimately, your goals in life. Are you in alignment, or do you need to set some of those standards up a little higher? The key to navigating this stagnant energy is being open-minded with yourself and being flexible with how you achieve those goals. Change up your daily routine. Set some strict boundaries, especially when it comes to dating — do you really want to set yourself up for another disappointment? You need more freedom and excitement in your life, so open yourself up for new opportunities to take place. Stop being so willing to stick with the old, especially when it has shown you over and over again that it doesn’t suit your best interests.
Sagittarius: Travel may be on the horizon for you! For those thinking about living or working in another city/country, start planning it out now. The sooner you dedicate your focus to it, the easier it will be to actually make it happen. Regardless, this seems like a really enjoyable period you are entering, Sagittarius. Your calendar is looking pretty busy, and there seems to be a lot of potential for taking on some big and ambitious projects. Those that are entrepreneurs will be excited to hear that new clients and big possible networking opportunities will be coming your way soon. If you believe in your work and have good intentions with what you aim to accomplish, you will succeed. Use your killer instincts when it comes to big decisions this month — the risk will definitely pay off!
Capricorn: You’re ready for that next job or opportunity to come by already, so why is it taking so long? Patience is the name of the game this month, Capricorn. This past year, you have been nothing but patient — continue it and don’t abandon your current responsibilities. Something that you may have sacrificed or helped out with late last year will be returning this April as a new opportunity — or perhaps just a new perspective on your current situation.
There’s some paperwork or homework of sorts that you need to revisit, so take some time this April to make sure you’ve wrapped up everything from the past. Money will be tight this month, and relationships might take a hit as well, so as hard as it may be to hear, you cannot give up this month. You must continue working hard and showing up for your loved ones. In fact, some will have to work on repairing relationships that were recently neglected. Think through what you need to say to them, because you might just dig yourself in a deeper hole if you’re not being thoughtful with what you say and who you say it to.
Aquarius: Things may have become stagnant in love, or your relationship may have ended recently. No worries, because change is coming in quick, meaning the opportunity to spice things up and meet some new people will be coming real soon! Just don’t forget that sometimes that constant need for the next best thing isn’t always the healthiest attitude. It’s ok to look for something new and exciting but oftentimes, if you’re ALWAYS seeking it, you might just be looking for an escape from a bigger issue. Unexpected news and sudden changes will be occurring all throughout April. It will be incredibly difficult for you to keep a stable daily routine or to not be easily distracted, so take the time to find a creative outlet to help keep you focused and to avoid restlessness and boredom. Be mindful of this behavior in the workplace, though. Doing things a little too differently or going against certain rules may not please the boss.
Pisces: Pisces, if others are making you feel guilty, untrustworthy or you are suspicious of them, don’t allow the situation to manifest into something bigger. Recognize where you went wrong, apologize if you need to and move on. Dwelling on these feelings and negative situations will literally drain the life out of you. Many of you might experience some uncomfortable symptoms as well, with some people getting physically sick. Take care of your body as best as you can this April, as your immune system may be weaker than usual. The best thing you can do this month is put your energy towards your creativity. Create some art. Create something with a message to it. Pour your heart out into different mediums. Release what you feel and make something out of it. The point is to be more in tune with your feelings rather than allow them to control you.
