April is the month when nature finally decides to come out of hibernation, and sunny days become more frequent. The change of seasons, combined with the transformative astrological event, makes April’s lineup juicier than the season finale of your favourite show.
First up, on April 1st, Mercury decides to pull an April Fool’s prank by going retrograde in Aries. This transit hinders our communication skills and thought processes, which can lead to misunderstandings and strange situations. Expect texts to your ex sent by “accident” and emails disappearing into the ether.
Then, on April 8th, we’ll be under the influence of a powerful Aries Solar Eclipse. This event is the universe’s way of hitting the refresh button on your life, but it’s just a warning sign: it might delete some files you want to keep. Don’t hold on to them; trust the process.
By April 19th, the Sun moves into Taurus, urging you to chill out, focus on self-care and maybe obsess over your houseplant collection.
But just when you thought you could relax, the Scorpio Full Moon on April 23rd will heighten the intensity in the environment, making your emotions run high and your relationships more passionate and intimate.
Below you can find your horoscope for April 2024 and the predictions for each zodiac sign.
