April Moon Guide: Taurus Beginnings, Libra Fullness & Aquarian Release
The month of April begins under the influence of the New Moon crossing through the sign of Taurus, where it will meet with the planet Uranus! Taurus, an earth sign, radiates an energy of tranquility, stability, and solidity! The passage of the Moon through this sign illuminates its evident qualities, making us feel internally more confident and satisfied. The contact with Uranus sharpens curiosity and leads us to seek new spaces beyond our comfort zone.
The different phases of the Moon result from its relationship with the Sun, which gradually illuminates it throughout the monthly cycle.
The New Moon marks the alignment of the Sun and Moon in one of the 12 zodiacal constellations (signs). At the moment of this alignment, only the Sun’s light is visible to us; the Moon disappears from the skies, completely absorbed by the rays of the Sun! Symbolically, the New Moon signifies the beginning of a new cycle and is the best time to plant your intentions!
As the Sun and Moon separate, the outline of the Moon begins to appear, initially just a crescent in the sky—a beautiful sight to behold! It’s a time to nourish your dreams, trusting in their power to manifest! When half of the Moon is illuminated, we enter the waxing gibbous phase, which this month will be on April 4th.
04/04 – Waxing Moon in Cancer
During the Waxing Moon, everything that was dreamed and intended begins to take shape! It’s a time to get to work, let the cake rise, work on projects, and make things happen! What grows during these first 14 days, from New Moon to Waxing Moon, approaches its peak at the Full Moon moment!
This Waxing Moon will be in Cancer, a sign ruled by the Moon itself! It’s a moment of sighs, nurturing, and comfort, following the emotional intensity of March’s eclipse season!
In Cancer, the Moon accentuates our maternal and protective sides; we may feel more emotional and attached to our home and loved ones. The familiar represents security, and we tend to look back and cling to memories. However, the Moon continues its course, and after moments of rest and coziness, where we recharge our emotional batteries, we must move forward on our journey!
On April 12th, we reach the Full Moon, marking the midpoint of the monthly lunar cycle. The Sun and Moon are in opposite signs, and we see the Moon fully illuminated by the Sun!
The Full Moon is the peak of the cycle, where everything that is too full simply overflows! Emotions run high, and there’s an increased magnetism in the air. The Full Moon in the sky evokes moments of romance! It’s the best time for launches and public events because people are more open and willing to interact.
12/04 – Full Moon in Libra
This month, the Full Moon begins in the sign of Libra, ruled by Venus, associated with harmony and balance! It can be a good time to celebrate agreements, strengthen bonds, and seek unity! The Moon is well-received in this sign, as both the Moon and Venus are feminine celestial bodies, linked to the archetypes of mother (Moon) and woman (Venus).
This particular Full Moon occurs at a time when the Sun, still crossing through Aries, conjuncts Chiron, the wounded healer. It’s a moment to look with tenderness and loving kindness at our own emotional pains and wounds, embracing our inner child and applying a healing balm to all that still hurts. It’s ideal to intensify self-care practices, inspired by the Moon and Venus!
After the days of the Full Moon, it begins to wane, and when only half of the Moon is visible, the waning gibbous phase begins!
It’s the last phase of the lunar cycle, with the Moon receiving less sunlight each day. This phase invites us to undergo a similar process internally, reducing what is excessive or no longer serves us—it’s a time to let go with ease!
If we simply follow this lunar cycle, any kind of detachment becomes easier! Whether it’s letting go of vices or bad habits, breaking free from toxic relationships, or even shedding those extra pounds on the scale.
20/04 – Waning Moon in Aquarius
April’s Waning Moon begins in the sign of Aquarius, the final air sign. The element Air relates to the mental plane, thoughts, and the world of ideas.
With the Moon waning in this sign, it’s the ideal moment to abandon old beliefs and even the habit of overthinking! Combatting overthinking and filtering excess information will be the best way to calm the mind and get everything back on track. In truth, we are not in control of anything, and there is much wisdom in aligning with the Cosmos and learning to go with the flow!
In the final days of April, the Sun and Moon will meet again, and a new lunar cycle will begin, this time with the New Moon in Taurus!
27/04 – New Moon in Taurus
With the New Moon in Taurus, the connection with the material world and its demands becomes easier and more direct! It’s a moment of great fertility in every sense, both physical and spiritual. Take this opportunity to connect with all the abundance present in Nature and with all the generosity permeating the Universe!
Namaste!
