April 2024 Horoscopes

STAR OF THE MONTH

ARIES

21 MARCH - 20 APRIL

April opens with Mercury retrograde in your sign, suggesting that keeping your lips sealed would be beneficial. Of course, you're a speedy character in both word and deed, which presents a challenge. Thankfully, Venus arrives to lend you a diplomatic hand; it's surprising what you can get away with when you're looking cute. Don't push your luck too far, though, especially around the solar eclipse – also in your sign – on the 9th. It's a busy time to be an Aries! Watch for lucrative financial opportunities in late April and be ready to sign the paperwork when Mercury moves forward.

TAURUS

21 APRIL – 20 MAY

The solar eclipse is the perfect opportunity to forgive yourself for past mistakes and unleash a new bravado unencumbered by silly hypothetical fears. Use Mercury retrograde to argue against the voice of your inner negative Ned or Nelly. Play around with a new subconscious character—the one waving pompoms and shamelessly cheering you on!

GEMINI

21 MAY – 21 JUNE

Your friendships keep you on your toes this month. You are in major social demand, and even with your talent for multitasking, you could get a little confused and end up double-booking yourself or spilling the word salad lingering limp at the back of the fridge. Mercury retrograde is here again to test your mind, tangle your tongue, and interfere with your electronics.

CANCER

22 JUNE – 22 JULY

Major career activity is happening for you this month, Cancer, so be a little gentle with yourself. You are more ambitious than most people realise, and though the changes underway look exciting, they will trigger your fears and insecurities. Landing a new job, a big client, or being promoted comes with extra responsibilities that seem to have you second guessing. You absolutely are good enough!

LEO

23 JULY – 22 AUGUST

Your mind is far, far away, and your feet long to follow. You strive to get out of your comfort zone. Whether that’s sharing the knowledge you’ve accumulated through your life adventures or jet-setting to a foreign shore, you are more than ready to escape your everyday routine. Take care with bookings and paperwork, though, as Mercury retrograde could have you hopping on the wrong flight!

VIRGO

23 AUGUST – 22 SEPTEMBER

You bravely step into the shadows this April, ready to uncover secrets and bring truth to light. It may sound dramatic, but looking at your loan balances and assessing your retirement plan requires courage. Roll up your sleeves and do some sums, knowing that Venus will soon bring harmony to the necessary chaos of Mercury retrograde in this foreboding sector of your chart.

LIBRA

23 SEPTEMBER – 22 OCTOBER

With your boss-babe planet, Venus, moving through your partnership sector for most of the month, your focus is firmly on bringing harmony to your relationships and collaboration. Sounds perfect, no? Well, it is if you don’t mind Mercury retrograde and a solar eclipse interfering with your romantic fantasies. Towards the end of the month, the mood shifts from interpersonal to material.

SCORPIO

23 OCTOBER – 21 NOVEMBER

As April begins, you are under the pump and feeling the heat in terms of stress, worry, and responsibilities. Hopefully, you aren’t unwell – but if your body has hit its limit, pay attention and prioritise your health and wellbeing. Participating regularly in enjoyable activities is essential. There’s a major development with a key partner as the Moon becomes full in your sign.

SAGITTARIUS

22 NOVEMBER – 21 DECEMBER

The desire for more spontaneous romance and pleasure counterintuitively requires negotiation and planning – but once you are on your marks and ready to go, you’ll be unstoppable. The harder you work and the deeper you commit to an innovative new idea, the more likely you are to discover the rich seam of gold you seek. Let novelty lead the way.

CAPRICORN

22 DECEMBER – 19 JANUARY

There are deep rumblings at the foundational levels of your life. Structural changes are underway in your mind, and so is how you connect to your local community. Ensure your media consumption, your commute, and your peer relationships are all humming. Your home and family life are getting a reset; have faith that any disruptions or misunderstandings will be smoothed over by month’s end.

AQUARIUS

20 JANUARY – 18 FEBRUARY

New ways of thinking are underway as you rediscover the magic right under your nose. Going for a walk around your local area is an excellent way to refamiliarise yourself with what you think you already know. Be open to surprises, though. The less you say, the more you will intuitively understand. You’ll be ready to share your sparky new ideas towards the end of the month.

PISCES

19 FEBRUARY – 20 MARCH

It’s nose to the grindstone in early April as you work hard to set yourself up for long-term success and achievement. Making money along the way is also an important part of this story. Retrograde Mercury and the solar eclipse help you rearrange the way you spend and earn with the optional help of a financial professional. Keep your receipts.
