Your Key Dates:

April 5: Sweep the skeletons out of your closet

April 19: Netflix and chill...by yourself

April 20: Take a long nap in your birthday suit


Your birthday season is right around the corner, Taurus babe, but before you can party, you need to clean house. On April 5, a new moon in Aries kicks off a new emotional cycle fueled by catharsis. Figure out what you need to release in order to make room for exciting new opportunities. Endings always precede beginnings. Closure is only temporary.

Jupiter-the planet of luck and expansion-will also support this soul work. Last November, this celestial body entered your intimacy sector, inspiring you to reflect and reminisce. Slowly but surely you’ve discovered that the answers you’ve been searching for are embedded in your past. Jupiter begins its extended retrograde cycle on April 10, which will encourage you to go even deeper with your inner discoveries. Consider the ways others have impacted your life, for better and for worse. Through August 11, the impact of Jupiter will be profound. Stop yourself from absorbing outside drama. You don’t need to add any more baggage to your load.

A full moon in Libra electrifies the sky on April 19, shining a light on your daily routines. This is an opportunity to make sure your calendar is supporting your personal happiness. Is your schedule inspiring you or is it squishing your spirit? If you’ve overbooked yourself with too many social obligations, workout classes, and Tinder dates, it’s time to start declining calendar invites. Make self-care your bae.

Last but certainly not least, the Sun moves into your sign on April 20, kicking off your birthday season! Happy solar return!! This is an excellent time to celebrate you. What makes *you* happy? What makes *you* smile? Double down on joy and indulge for the next few weeks like a true Taurus. Nap often, take extra bubble baths, and eat lots and lots of birthday cake!
