LEO | APRIL HOROSCOPE

April is here, Leo! The month opens up with the planet of communication, Mercury, moving into your Aries 9th house of education and spirituality, indicating a time where you could be inclined to do a lot of mental exploration and delving into new subjects and interests. Take advantage of the passionate and determined Aries energy to expand your boundaries when it comes to your mind! On the 11th, there is a New Moon in Aries, also falling in your 9th house. This is an opportunity to push your intellectual and spiritual boundaries, Leo. How can you explore both these themes from a new perspective and learn more about the world and your place in it? On the 14th, Venus, the planet of relationships and money, enters its home sign of Taurus and your 10th house of career and public image. As with most Venus transits, this is a favorable time in this area of life, where there could be opportunities thrown your way as well as getting involved in more artistic matters when it comes to your professional and career life. Take advantage of this transit and make the most out of this harmonious and grounded energy! On the 19th, both the Sun and Mercury join Venus in your 10th house of Taurus, indicating a positive time for intellectual activities and conversations regarding your career, aspirations and legacy. Use the earth and grounded Taurean energy to put some ideas in place! On the 23rd, Mars enters your Cancer 12th house of subconscious and isolation. Now, Mars is not at home in the sign of Cancer, it is in its fall, meaning it has a more difficult time getting Mars type of stuff done and executed properly. The 12th house is often the most challenging house in our charts, but one where we can learn from the most and grow in unexplainable ways. With Mars transiting this house, it can indicate a frustrating time with yourself and others, where harmful patterns that you could be unaware of can surface back up. One of the best things to do can be to work by yourself during this time to avoid conflicts with others and be honest with yourself when situations happen where you feel defensive or like committing a self-defeating act. If we are honest about how we feel and try to get to the root of the problem, we have a chance of addressing these situations and healing them from within. On the 26th and to wrap up the month of April, we will be having a Full Moon in Scorpio, illuminating your 4th house of home and family. Leo, take this time to quite literally do a cleaning spree! What in your physical space do you not need to keep anymore? Make room for new and exciting things that have the potential to stimulate the space around you! Full Moons are quite literally moments of culmination and purging, so release what is necessary!
