New Moon in Aries, 6 April: your 4th house
Tuesday 6 April brings the New Moon at 16°57′ Aries, exact at 23:51 UTC, and for Capricorn it falls in the 4th house, the house of home, family and roots.
The tradition reads a New Moon as a seed rather than a harvest, and the April seed falls in your 4th house, the Subterranean of the old books: a new beginning at home: a room set right, a move considered, a family pattern looked at honestly. Set in your 4th house, the April lunation takes its tone from its sign: Aries lends it courage and haste in equal measure.
If you want something to do with this April lunation, do one small act that makes your home feel more ordered and protected.
Beyond the Sun sign
Your Sun sign is only part of 2027
A Capricorn forecast reads the year by your Sun sign alone. The Road of Ages reads the turning points of your whole life from your own birth date, and shows where you stand on it now.
See the year on your own RoadFull Moon in Scorpio, 20 April: your 11th house
The Full Moon is exact at 22:27 UTC on Tuesday 20 April, with the Moon at 0°37′ Scorpio and the Sun opposite in Taurus. For Capricorn the Moon lights your 11th house, the house of friends, hopes and community, while the Sun stands across in your 5th.
Astrologers treat the Full Moon as the month’s high tide; in April the tide rises in your 11th house, the place the tradition calls the Good Spirit, and it shows your place in a community, and whether it still feels like belonging. In your 11th house this April, Scorpio makes the mood deep and unflinching, interested in what lies underneath. Read as an axis, from your 11th house to your 5th, this April Full Moon runs along the axis of the heart and the hope: personal joy and the friends and causes you belong to.
One way for Capricorn to meet it in April: give your time to a cause you believe in, even for one afternoon.
