You’re having so much fun as the month begins, Sagittarius—can every month be like this?

Once Taurus season comes around, you’re ready to get to work on a new project or ready to re-evaluate your daily habits and routine!
The month starts off with some possibly annoying news on April 3 as Mercury enters Taurus. Small arguments or disagreements may crop up—it can feel like life is more tedious than normal. You may also just be overbooked! You’re in high demand and can feel pulled in many directions.
The Full Moon in Libra lights up the sky and brings attention to your friendship circle on April 6. Drama or confrontations can take place or, on the positive side, you may reach a turning point with a friend. A wish or hope for the future may also be unfolding around this time. The energy is mildly chaotic at worst, but celebratory at best. When in doubt, try to have some fun if possible. You’re in a flow state on April 7 when Venus in Taurus mingles with Neptune in Pisces.

This is a harmonious time for relationships and collaborative partnerships in your life, both romantic and platonic. Exciting opportunities to collaborate may also begin to sprout.
The Sun and Jupiter, both in Aries, meet at the same point in the sky on April 11, and abundance, fortune, and blessing abound. If you’ve been hoping to birth something new into this world—whether that’s a human, fur baby, or creative project—this could be your lucky day. The energy is optimistic, romantic, and hopeful. Celebrate, follow your joy, and ditch your responsibilities if possible. You’re meant to enjoy yourself and lean into your creative spirit and pleasures today. Promising news may also arrive—there’s much to celebrate! A few days later, Venus in Gemini clashes with Saturn in Pisces, and you may need to set boundaries or expectations with a partner. Tough conversations can take place today around your future plans or shared living space. This too shall pass.
