April 2022: Horoscope: Aquarius

Aries season and the Aries new moon spark connections 

Synergies abound! Until April 19, the Sun is in Aries and your third house of kindred spirits and communication. You've got ideas to share and things to express—so use every platform at your disposal to get the word out. Your mind is also hungry for information, so catch up on those books and podcasts you’ve been meaning to consume.

The April 1 Aries new moon sets the stage for a brand-new project or collaboration as the stars hand you the mic. Where can you apply that Aquarian creativity to get your message across in a way that captures people’s attention (and keeps it)? With the moon in your third house of local affairs, you might find the perfect "test kitchen" right in your neighborhood. Look for resources in your own backyard or pilot a community project, from a pop-up shop to a trunk show to a small event where you can teach your new methodology.

A conversation or a seed of an idea could blossom into something truly meaningful between now and the October 9 Aries full moon. Today’s spark could turn into a blazing success over the next six months if you play your cards right. With communicator Mercury and healer-feeler Chiron teamed up with the new moon, you’d be wise to capture your brainstorms in writing. Think about a community you’d most like to impact or a cause close to your heart. How might you use your gift of gab or your wide social network to make a change?

The April 4 Mars-Saturn conjunction helps refine your plans 

Time for a pit stop on the reinvention tour? Ever since go-getter Mars zoomed into your sign on March 6, you’ve been pumped to get back in the game with your personal goals and plans. But hang tight during the first week of the month. On April 4, the speedy red planet will form an exact meetup with cautious Saturn. The effect will be like having one foot on the gas and the other on the brake.

Be extremely discerning with the image you put out into the world and make sure you’re showing your polished best. This would be a great time to work with a stylist, image consultant or branding expert. Hold your tongue if you’re tempted to pop off on someone, especially a person in an authority position. Incurring their wrath could extract a heavier backlash than you expected—and the idea here is to NOT lose any of your freedom!

Mars and Saturn are known as the “malefic” (unfavorable or challenging) planets. Their last conjunction was on March 31, 2020, right as the United States ordered a stay-at-home quarantine for 240 million Americans and the pandemic’s reality struck hard. With both planets in Aquarius, the sign of community and society, we can expect to feel the strain of their combined transit once again. Mars is in your sign until April 14, so let this collision course subside over the first few days of April, then get back to your renegade ways (maturely, please!).

The April 12 Jupiter-Neptune conjunction is a historic day

Is money slipping through your fingers—or flowing in from new sources? On April 12, abundant Jupiter and illusory Neptune make an extremely rare mashup in Pisces and your second house of work and money. It’s the first time they’ve united in this zodiac sign since March 17, 1856. Get ready for some powerful but potentially unsettling changes to your work and finances.

While this horizon-expanding duo can lend their Midas-touch mojo to your moolah, their combined powers can also make you susceptible to a slick-yet-mesmerizing sales pitch, or convince you to bite off more work than you can chew. If you find yourself getting swept away by someone’s charms, keep your wallet firmly shut.

Looking to make money AND make a difference in the world with impact and mission-driven work? This could be your chance. The last Jupiter-Neptune conjunction occurred during a transformational era for anti-slavery and women’s rights efforts. It was also a peak era in the Spiritualist movement. Keep that in mind as you search for ways to forge a meaningful career path for yourself.

Take a chance at the April 16 Libra full moon

Roll the dice, Aquarius—nothing ventured, nothing gained! On April 16, the year's only Libra full moon could bring an exciting opportunity to put your boldest ideas into the world or to take a leap of faith. With the illuminating full moon in this articulate sign, you’ve got the planetary permission to express your visionary ideas, no matter how “impossible” they might seem. To your surprise, you could discover that a lot of people are eager to get on-board, especially if you project is connected to an of-the-moment message or mission.

Pondering a vacation or a return to school, maybe a startup business? Travel, publishing, entrepreneurship and study are all on the agenda at this full moon. Cast a wide net and don’t limit yourself to one audience or region. Like-minded people await in unexpected places!

Just be careful who you bring into this endeavor as a tense, 90-degree square from calculating Pluto in your secretive twelfth house suggests that a shady person may be hovering on the periphery. Have you or another person been holding back the truth? Potent Pluto in your twelfth house of hidden information could ignite an unexpected and intense conversation.

This conflict intensifies over the full moon weekend. On Monday, April 18, when the Sun locks into an EXACT square with Pluto, all your stuffed-down anger and resentment can really churn up. Although the atmosphere may get heated, use this as a chance to fully clear the air. Just don't pull out a laundry list of everything this person did wrong in the past six months. If you didn't tell them you were upset, how could they have known? Words are irrevocable in Pluto’s lengthy memory. Take responsibility for ways that you may have given a mixed message or led someone to believe you were “fine” with something when you actually weren’t.

Bless your nest! Taurus season begins on April 19

How about a little spring sprucing, Aquarius? On April 19, your nesting instinct kicks in as the Sun enters Taurus, warming up your fourth house of home and family. In contrast to the buzzing Aries season energy, the next four weeks encourage you to anchor into your emotions and tend to your personal life. Invite friends and family members over for a home-cooked meal and make an effort to catch up with your clan. Turn your nurturing instincts inward and prioritize self-care since you may be more emotional than usual.

With the karmic north node and changeable Uranus (your ruler) both in Taurus this year, you might be suddenly moving, hearing pregnancy news or navigating changes in your family structure, particularly with your mother or a female relative. Emotions you’ve repressed could come to the surface despite your best attempts to hold them in. Believe it or not, this is a good thing, though you may learn a few important lessons about how to be more vulnerable and transparent.

The month ends with a second new moon on April 30, also called a black moon, the official name for a second new moon that falls in a single calendar month. This one happens to be a partial solar eclipse, which could spark sudden events around your personal life. It’s the second eclipse in a series falling on the Taurus/Scorpio axis from November 2021 until October 2023 that will serve to revolutionize your work-life balance and shake up your living situation, career and goals. As unrooting (and uprooting) as it can feel, trust that these changes are helping you design a lifestyle that truly suits you. Why hang onto anything that’s not authentically you?

Pluto turns retrograde on April 29

What lies beneath, Aquarius? On April 29, shadowy Pluto turns retrograde (backward) in Capricorn, your twelfth house of surrender and the subconscious, a cycle that will last until October 8. During this five-month period, you’re primed to deal with some old, seemingly intractable baggage. Maybe it’s time to return to therapy, especially if you’re confronting deep-seated fears and subconscious issues that you’ve grown accustomed to sweeping aside. Facing your very worst “what if” scenario might be your key to emotional freedom.

Seeking more meaning from life? Immersing yourself in spiritual or mystical study can be a great cushion, helping you navigate larger anxieties. As tempting as it can be to get entrenched in resentment or a victim mindset, spend your precious energy learning how to let go and trust the universe on all matters, including karmic retribution. Instead of being the judge and jury, accept all situations and people as teachers. Through this lens, what have you learned? And how can these lessons propel you forward?

April 2022 Aquarius Love Horoscope

Security is sexy this spring! This month, both love planets, Venus and Mars, will travel through Pisces and your stabilizing second house. Charming Venus is in Pisces from April 5 to May 2, and sexy Mars arrives on April 14, staying until May 24.

In the first half of the month, lusty Mars is in Aquarius, sparking your independent spirit. You could feel dueling desires for stability and freedom. But by the latter part of April, you’ll want quality over quantity.

Your sign can be whimsical and commitment-averse, so this cosmic turn is balancing and grounding for love. Coupled Aquarians should focus a little less on all the unexplored possibilities and work on enjoying what you have right now, in this moment. Since the second house is associated with self-worth, both single and attached Water Bearers will get a little cosmic reminder to be confident in what you have to offer.

Financial and emotional stability are major turn-ons now. But be warned: With combative Mars in the mix, money could also become a source of tension, especially if you diverge in your spending habits or the budget is tight. For single Aquarians, make sure you’re not rushing to pick up the check just because you don’t want to sit through the awkward moment when nobody grabs the bill.

It might take some inner work to get comfortable talking candidly about money. But a great day to test those waters arrives on April 30, when Venus and honest Jupiter unite in Pisces. Take a chance and open up about your feelings, especially since today will also serve up a solar eclipse in Taurus and your fourth house of emotional foundations. Let this be the first day of a new, authentic chapter when it comes to talking about your security—in every sense of the word.

April 2022 Aquarius Career Horoscope

Rev up your revenue! Go-getter Mars will split the month between Aquarius (until April 14) and Pisces, heating up your first house of self, then your second house of income and work. You may have gotten a late start on your 2022 goals, but you’re certainly ready to make up for lost time. Wealth magnet Venus, abundant Jupiter AND enchantress Neptune will also spend the month in Pisces, an excellent time for conjuring up cash flow and plum new projects.

We don’t need to tell an Aquarius that there’s power in numbers. And this month, you’re especially golden when it comes to sparking synergies and collaborating with kindred spirits. With the Sun in Aries and your communicative third house until April 19, dynamic duos abound, especially at the April 1 Aries new moon. The Libra full moon on April 16 could bring a long-distance or startup opportunity. Thinking of buying or selling real estate or building a better nest egg? The April 30 solar eclipse in Taurus puts the spotlight on security and firm financial foundations.
