New Moon in Aries, 6 April: your 5th house

The New Moon is exact at 23:51 UTC on Tuesday 6 April, at 16°57′ Aries. Counted by whole signs from Sagittarius, Aries is your 5th house, the house of romance, creativity and children.

A New Moon is read as an opening rather than an event, so the April lunation is less a happening than an invitation in your 5th house, Good Fortune: a seed of delight: a hobby resumed, a child’s plan supported, a date actually set. In your 5th house this April, Aries makes the mood direct and impatient, more willing to begin than to wait.

If you want something to do with this April lunation, return to a hobby you dropped because it did not earn anything.

Full Moon in Scorpio, 20 April: your 12th house

On Tuesday 20 April the Moon comes full at 0°37′ Scorpio, at 22:27 UTC, facing the Sun in Taurus; for Sagittarius it fills the 12th house, the house of rest, solitude and the hidden life, from across the 6th.

In the old reckoning the Full Moon was the month’s midpoint, a time to gather in, and in April the gathering happens in your 12th house, the Bad Spirit: the need for rest that you have been overriding. Set in your 12th house, the April lunation takes its tone from its sign: Scorpio makes the mood deep and unflinching, interested in what lies underneath. With the Sun across the chart in your 6th house, the April Full Moon speaks along the axis of work and rest: the duties of the day and the retreat that restores you.

One way for Sagittarius to meet it in April: write down one pattern you repeat in secret, and one step away from it.

Planets changing sign or direction in April

Mars turns direct in Leo, in your 9th house: after 81 days of backward motion since 10 January, drive and momentum return. The turn comes on 1 April, at 20°55′ Leo. For Sagittarius what was under review in faith and belief, and long journeys can begin to move after 1 April, though the tradition counsels a few more days before signing or launching anything large.

On 8 April Mercury moves into Aries, which is your 5th house. Until 24 April, with Mercury in the house of Good Fortune, the tradition reads a light, witty spell, good for creative work and for courtship by conversation.

Jupiter stations direct in Leo, your 9th house, ending the retrograde loop it began on 12 or 13 December 2026. The turn comes on 13 April, at 16°59′ Leo, and in your 9th house its renewed motion touches faith and belief, long journeys, and higher learning.

Venus enters Aries on 20 April, your 5th house. Until 14 May, with the lesser benefic in the place she rejoices, the old books would call this a time for courtship, creativity and pleasure without guilt.

On 20 April at 07:18 UTC the Sun crosses into Taurus, which for Sagittarius is the 6th house. Until 21 May, the Sun in your 6th house makes a month for routines, daily work and the maintenance of a life.

On 24 April Mercury moves into Taurus, which is your 6th house. Until 9 May, with Mercury in your house of daily work, the tradition reads a spell for organizing routines and fixing what keeps going wrong.

Love, work and money for Sagittarius in April

Venus begins April in Pisces, your 4th house, and enters Aries, your 5th, on 20 April, turning affection toward romance, dating, courtship and the play that keeps love from going stale. The New Moon on 6 April falls in your 5th, the house of romance, creativity and children.

Mars stays in Leo all month, your 9th house, putting the month’s effort into teaching, publishing, law, travel for work and further qualifications.

For money, no lunation or fast planet changes in your 2nd house (Capricorn) or your 8th (Cancer) in April, so the tradition would put the month’s weight elsewhere and leave Sagittarius’s budgets to ordinary prudence.
