Monthly Horoscope for April

The New Moon (first total solar eclipse of 2023) on April 8th occurs in Aries and the Full Moon on April 23rd falls in Scorpio. Mercury travels into Aries and will remain until May 14th (due to his retrograde motion. On April 6th Venus enter into Aries and will remain until April 29th. Mars sails into Pisces until April 30th.  Jupiter is in Taurus until May 25. Saturn is in Pisces until February 2026. Uranus is direct in Taurus. Neptune is direct in Pisces and Pluto is direct in Aquarius.

When a planet is retrograde in our charts, it means that the properties of that planet, in a sense, are reversed. The times that Mercury goes retrograde defines a time for us to slow down and go within. Think about what is happening in our lives and where we are going. Most of us see this time as an annoyance, but once again, Astrology is a tool and we need to use the time for our benefit.

Generally speaking, during a Mercury retrograde, we can expect delays, traffic situations, problems in communications (especially with telephones and cell phones), computer problems, delays in mail, and we never want to sign any contracts or legal documents, especially long-term ones. We don't throw logic completely out the window, if something needs to be taken care of and is of an urgent nature, we don't put it off, we just do what we need to do and see what unfolds.

All Aries and Libra are affected by this solar eclipse. Personal life is the most likely area to suffer, especially your closest relationships. The effect of a Solar Eclipse can last up to six months even years, so allow yourself to be acutely aware of all that you set in motion the day before, the day of and the day after the Eclipse!

We want to clarify our daily and monthly horoscopes are general for all zodiac signs and do not take into account of your personal natal chart.  For a personal reading click here

 

Sagittarius:  With the Sun, Mercury and Venus in Aries also transit your fifth solar house. Your love life is about to get more intense. During this month communication improves, and eroticism blossoms even in the oldest of couples.

This month you’re more pleasant and talkative – you might even make some romantic declarations. Or at least your hints are more poetic and you make a good impression with potential partners.

Keep in mind that Mercury retrogrades from April 2nd through April 25th in Aries and your fifth solar house of love. If attached, you may have misunderstandings with your partner.     

                                

If single, you have a harder time meeting anyone new. If you have children, you have more stress and misunderstandings with them, and they seem more rebellious.                                                      

You want to spend more time on your hobbies and away from work but can’t take the time off, or you don’t want to play at all but have too much time off.                                                                   

This transit is good for reconnecting with an old flame, and taking up an old hobby again.

On April 8th the Aries New Moon (total solar eclipse) occurs in your fifth solar house of love, self-expression and children.

Set clear intentions for your love life, and watch them unfold in the coming six months. A proposal or pregnancy is possible, or you may "birth" a creative idea that blossoms into something major.

Single? The universe rewards action, so take a step toward manifesting a rewarding bond.

Pose for dating profile pics or clear a weekly space in your calendar to attend events where you could meet a good match.

Take your talents seriously and you could find some fame by the October 17th, Aries full moon.

 

Mars sails into Pisces and in fourth solar of home and family until April 30. This is a time of great activity where you live.

Positive activity might be working hard around your home and getting a great deal accomplished. Domestic strife is another side of this influence that you may have to contend with, if you don't make an effort to agree with the people you live with.                                   

If you identify so strongly and uncompromisingly with the way you want your home to be, you will force them to resist you. This energy can also signify disputes with others or over real estate.

Work/Money:  You’re more motivated after April 19, when the Sun begin his transit through your sixth solar house of work, giving you more energy for work and patience.

During the last 10 days of this month, you could come up with some ingenious way to put into practice some professional ideas or present your ideas in your working environment.

If you succeed to find a new approach or even an unconventional one, you get the chance to put into practice some older idea and/or receive unexpected material support.                                        

You could also stand to gain from well-thought-out small-scale speculative investments in areas related to technology, communications, communication, commerce.

Pluton sails in Aquarius and your third solar house for the first time in 248 years: Pluto has an uncanny ability to strip self-deceit and force you to face the truth about the ways in which you communicate with other people, particularly siblings and neighbors.                                                

Matters of power are also likely to be prominent right now. Are you being bullied, or are you trying to coerce others to your way of thinking?

You might need to learn new methods of communicating and counsellors may help. Reflect on beliefs that have colored your life. It is time to face your fears and gain new insights.
