April is fierce and gutsy—and it’s going full throttle.
We’re in Aries season for most of it, after all, mixing a splash of Taurus energy and we’ve got a dangerous cocktail of passion and bravery. So there’s virtually no stopping us from bringing out our feisty side, speaking out (a la Mercury in Taurus), and showing up for ourselves.
This month is all about braving the eye of the storm and working hard to manifest the life of your dreams.
On the flip side, challenges around communication and relationships may bubble up to the surface toward the end of the month, so remember to preserve your energy. Looking inward through indulging in nature could give you the clarity you need.
