Aries season truly feels like spring break to you, Sagittarius, as the sun brightens up your house of friendship, creativity, and pleasure. There is a powerful new moon in Aries on Friday, April 5, inviting you to connect with your friends in fun, playful ways. This new moon offers a fresh perspective on exactly what you need to feel most satisfied.

Your planetary ruler, expansive Jupiter, has been in your sign since November 2018, Sag. It’s offered a lot of personal growth and your own self-image and presence has been soaring. Like most planets, Jupiter goes retrograde regularly. When this lucky planet begins moving backwards on Wednesday, April 10 (ending on August 11), you'll have time to take a seat and review the direction of your growth. Double-check to be sure you’re going the right way.

Since early February, Mercury has been digging up emotional dirt around your home and family, as it’s been in Pisces. There was a tough Mercury retrograde last month, but you made it out alive. After this confusing time period ends, there is always a post-retrograde shadow period when Mercury moves forward over its beaten tracks, allowing a third and final shot at cleaning up its mess at home. Mercury clears its shadow clears its shadow on Tuesday, April 16, helping you mentally prepare to get out of the house more.

When Mercury enters Aries on Wednesday, April 17, you will be much more socially minded and creative. It's a great time to enjoy conversations with your friends. Reach out to people who make you happy.

Trust that people want to be friends with you because you are unique.

Friendship and community are on the menu this month. There is a full moon in Libra on Friday, April 19, illuminating your house of social networking. Use the emotional clarity that this full moon offers to recognize your role in your community and the relationships that you have with everyone around you, then let go of any clique-y or social-climbing attitudes. Trust that people want to be friends with you because you are unique.

After a good run of partying, it’s time to focus on your health, and some of your mundane daily tasks. The sun enters Taurus on Saturday, April 20, illuminating your house of routine and ritual. Venus enters Aries the same day, providing extra energy and pleasure to put you up to the task. With the sun in Taurus, focus on your health in a more holistic way.

Pluto, the planet of taboo, starts its retrograde on Wednesday, April 24 (ending on October 3), giving you space to reflect on your obsession with financial security. The planet of discipline, Saturn, also goes retrograde on Monday, April 29 (which ends September 18), asking you to prove that you are responsible with your finances. With these two heavy hitters on the bench, your sense of control and structure around money loosens its belt, allowing for forgiveness.

It’s a great month for socializing. Taurus season is great for organizing your beauty products, so get your makeup organized so you can take it with you to get ready at a friend’s house. Try something like the Professional Bag by Make Up For Ever, which has different mesh pouches for everything you'll want to take with you.
