It’s a month focused on relationships

Bring on the love! April 2022 puts a special spotlight on relationships, both personally and professionally. This is because the sun and new moon will be in Aries at the onset of the month—the zodiac sign of the ego, independence and stepping into one’s individuality and power. We’ll feel fired up to follow our innermost desires and passions, likely putting ourselves first. However, April’s full moon will fall in the zodiac sign of Libra, which rules union, marriage and partnerships.

This yin-yang energy will be important to navigate as we balance “me” versus “we” vibes. Venus, the planet of love, and Mars, the planet of passion, will take a deep dive into Pisces this month, bringing a greater focus on romance, sensuality and soulmate connections. Spiritual vibes will echo throughout the cosmos, giving you a chance to grow closer with a soulmate at your side already or find someone new. Put yourself out there!

Prepare to begin a whole new era

Whoa! Get ready for a whole new creative and spiritual awakening! Jupiter, the planet of expansion, and Neptune, the planet of spirituality, will unite in a conjunction in Pisces on April 12, 2022. This has not happened since 1856! This is major! We will begin a new Renaissance around film, art, poetry, television, music and Hollywood now and in the years to come. New spiritual movements and leaders, especially in the New Age realm, will rise to power. Self-help, self-empowerment and the exploration of the subconscious will become even more popular. Jupiter and Neptune will not unite again until March 23, 2035! Use the time in April to unlock new creative or psychic gifts, embrace your mystical side and make connecting with soulmates a top priority.

Eclipse season returns

Destiny is calling your name! Eclipse season happens a couple times every year when our lives shift in profound and intense ways. Each day that we walk through April, you’ll notice a heightened level of synchronicity and intensity—as if a storm is approaching. Chance meetings, fated events and profound beginnings and endings could all start to occur in April, especially the closer that we get to the solar eclipse in Taurus on April 30, 2022. Pay attention to what the universe is telling you as you are about to begin a new chapter in your story.

It’s Aries season

It’s time to start fresh! Aries season is the first season of the zodiac year. This means that we will feel a burst of energy to venture into new territory, chase new horizons and begin new journeys. Now is an excellent time to map out what you’d like to tackle this year personally and professionally and use your passion and skills to make it happen!

Your ultimate guide to April 2022’s astroweather

• April 1, 2022: A new moon in Aries will get you fired up! The energy of a new moon opens before you for a week following the lunation. This is when it’s time to take action. With it falling in Aries, this will bring you a surge of energy and passion to pursue what sets your soul on fire.

• April 2, 2022: As the sun unites with Mercury, you’ll have a clear head and feel a burst of energy to tackle everything on your calendar. You’ll be quite busy with meetings and appointments. This is an excellent day to sign agreements, pitch ideas and socially connect!

• April 4, 2022: Big yikes. This is total trash energy and you’ll start feeling this creep up a few days prior and notice it lingers for a few days after—but today is the total SOS. Mars, ruling passion, collides with Saturn, ruling challenges. While this can give you the stamina and focus to tackle your goals, it is actually a bit more likely to bring out the darker side in your personality and in other people around you. Lie low, don’t rock the boat and do not give into your anger and vengeance. This vibe is hella destructive, so hide out.

• April 5, 2022: Venus, our planet of love and beauty, dances into the seas of Pisces—one of her favorite place to be! Expect a dreamy, sensual and romantic quality to fill your life in the weeks to come. Get creative!

• April 7, 2022: Today is a five-star day for business, negotiations and professional matters! With Mercury and Saturn swapping a high-five, you’re guaranteed clear thinking, good judgment and a focused mind. Learning, teaching or making long-term plans are especially favored.

• April 8, 2022: Yasssss, the good energy keeps on flowing! Mercury and Mars are energizing each other today, which means that you’ll feel courageous, active and feisty. This can be used toward professional goals in order to help you achieve a lot in a short amount of time. However, this can also be used in your personal life, bringing you a daring vibe, extra charisma and even (gasp!) sexy texts. Ask someone out on a date or slip into someone’s DMs—it’s a Friday, after all!

Astrology 101: Your guide to the stars

• April 10, 2022: Uh oh, power struggles are guaranteed to swing by today as Mercury is violently attacked by Pluto. Criticism and conflict could start your day, but luckily Mercury will swoop into Taurus, helping us to remain grounded, centered and more balanced later on. In the weeks to come, Mercury in Taurus will help us to be more conservative and practical in our plans. Financial and business matters will improve.

• April 12, 2022: Wow, wow, wow! Jupiter will conjunct Neptune, bringing a magical, ethereal and spiritual vibe into the world. Use today to tap into your mystical side, brainstorm visions for the future and dream big! The sun will also smile upon Saturn, too, making this a five-star day for all long-term planning where you need the stamina and patience to build the life you’ve always wanted. Success and recognition could also appear now!

• April 14, 2022: Fiery Mars dives into the tropical reefs of Pisces, bringing a surge of passion to creativity, spirituality and romance! In the weeks to come, your idealism could grow significantly. Chase your dreams! Follow your heart!

• April 16, 2022: The full Pink Moon arrives! This lunation will put a focus on partnerships in our lives—both personally and professionally. Union, commitment and balance will be important to us now. Dance with a twin flame or put yourself out there to find one. The full moon’s energy arrives a few days prior and lingers a few days after, but it most potent today. Emotional culminations, breakthroughs and endings are also possible.

• April 17, 2022: A charming, sweet and romantic day is upon you! As Mercury kisses Venus, we’ll feel more social and open to love. Enjoy the harmonious vibes. Express your affection. Ask someone for a favor. Work as a team.

• April 18, 2022: A highly chaotic—or exhilarating—day could arrive. This is because Uranus, the planet of the unknown and surprises, will unite with Mercury, bringing unexpected news, as well as link to Venus, bringing a need for spice and change in our relationships. Meeting new people or connecting with others could be appealing, but with the sun in a violent fight with Pluto, conflicts, challenges and power struggles may instead dominate our attention. Don’t do anything too impulsive or crazy, as it could be held against you and you’ll regret it later.

• April 19, 2022: Taurus season arrives! Welcome in abundance and your earthy side! In the month to come, get in touch with your sensuality and focus on what you’d like to build in the long-term. Financial and business matters will see more focus in our lives.

• April 24, 2022: Ouch! Mercury steps into the ring to fight with Saturn today, bringing gloomy thoughts and bad news. Work independently rather than trying to connect with people too much now. Luckily, Mercury will get a pat on the head from Neptune, which will give you the chance to unplug and speak from the heart. Spend some time enjoying a good book, podcast or series.

• April 26, 2022: Starting today, Mercury will begin to slow down in the sky. This is called its pre-shadow phase. In the weeks to come as we inch toward Mercury retrograde, you’ll notice little hiccups, challenges and frustrations pop up as the pace of life starts to slow down.

• April 27, 2022: Today will be gorgeous as the planets are in such a happy mood! Lucky breakthroughs and happy news could come your way as Mercury links to Jupiter. Making long-term plans and discussing negotiations would go well now. Sign contracts. Tap into your friendly side and impress people with your good vibes. Venus will also unite with Neptune, bringing a dreamy and magical flow to your day. Unconditional love, soulmate connections and great compassion will be the cosmic mood.

• April 28, 2022: Get ready for powerful vibes in all of your communications! Mercury will link with Pluto, giving you the ability to speak and write with cunning. Debating and bargaining will go well if you use your persuasive mental energy now. If you are in the process of learning and digesting information, you’ll see especially deeply now.

• April 29, 2022: Alas, our period free of retrogrades has come and gone. Sigh. Pluto will retrograde in Capricorn starting today. This will continue to revise global affairs around governments and big business. The structures in our lives are continuing to change. On a different note, Mercury enters Gemini today, too, bringing an extremely social and upbeat vibe in the weeks ahead! Enjoy yourself before we deal with a Mercury retrograde mid-May!

• April 30, 2022: Wowza! Expect profound and major changes ahead! A solar eclipse in Taurus arrives, blasting a doorway open in your life. Be sure to read your monthly horoscope by me to see what newfound destiny is coming your way that could change your life forever.

Predictions from my BFF and world-renowned psychic Calise Simone:

You may feel as though you’re spinning your wheels for the majority of the month, but hang in there.  Trust in the unseen forces.  You might not feel it now, but you are making progress towards your goals.  Your energy will brighten after the 18th and you will start to see small signs of progress and achievement. In the meantime, stay productive and patient, particularly after the 25th. Slow and steady wins the race!

For April, the Animal Spirit deck brings us the card of the Octopus for relationships. This is a spirit of water, which speaks of an incredible emotional perception that we will all share over the month ahead. This animal card holds incredible intelligence, but struggles a bit with the concept of limitations. So, in April, knowing where we end and where others begin is crucial to keep things playful and fun. When interacting with one another, we mustn’t allow our need for attention or connection cloud of judgment. The Octopus is also careful when choosing who to relate to and who to invest energy on. It reminds us to spend more time with those who respect our boundaries and who lift our spirit!
