New Moon in Aries, 6 April: your 12th house
Tuesday 6 April brings the New Moon at 16°57′ Aries, exact at 23:51 UTC, and for Taurus it falls in the 12th house, the house of rest, solitude and the hidden life.
Astrologers treat the New Moon as the month’s quiet beginning; in April that beginning is made in your 12th house, the place the Hellenistic astrologers called the Bad Spirit, and it is read as a seed planted in the dark, where some seeds have to start. For Taurus this April, Aries lends it courage and haste in equal measure.
One way for Taurus to meet it in April: visit someone who is lonely, ill or forgotten.
Beyond the Sun sign
Your Sun sign is only part of 2027
A Taurus 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 7th house
On Tuesday 20 April the Moon comes full at 0°37′ Scorpio, at 22:27 UTC, facing the Sun in Taurus; for Taurus it fills the 7th house, the house of partners and agreements, from across the 1st.
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 7th house, the Setting: the balance of give and take in a partnership or an agreement. Set in your 7th 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 1st house, the April Full Moon speaks along the axis of self and partner: how much of the year is yours to steer, and how much is shared.
A practice for the April Full Moon: plan time with a partner that is not about logistics.
Planets changing sign or direction in April
Mars turns direct in Leo, in your 4th 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 Taurus what was under review in home, and family and roots 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 12th house. Until 24 April, with Mercury in the house of hidden things, the tradition reads a quieter spell, better for reflection than for announcements.
Jupiter stations direct in Leo, your 4th 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 4th house its renewed motion touches home, family and roots, and parents.
Venus crosses into Aries on 20 April and so into your 12th house. Until 14 May, with Venus in the house of hidden things, the tradition reads a spell for tenderness out of public view and for healing old hurts.
On 20 April at 07:18 UTC the Sun crosses into Taurus, which for Taurus is the 1st house. Until 21 May, the Sun in your 1st house is your own season: the old books give it to vitality, and modern astrologers to the birthday month, when attention comes back to you.
On 24 April Mercury moves into Taurus, which is your 1st house. Until 9 May, with Mercury, who rejoices in the 1st house, in your own sign, the tradition reads a sharp, restless spell, good for decisions about yourself.
Love, work and money for Taurus in April
Venus begins April in Pisces, your 11th house, and enters Aries, your 12th, on 20 April, turning affection toward secret feelings, private sacrifices and the hidden life of a relationship. The Full Moon on 20 April falls in your 7th, the house of partners and agreements.
Mars stays in Leo all month, your 4th house, putting the month’s effort into working from home, and the foundations a career quietly stands on.
For money, no lunation or fast planet changes in your 2nd house (Gemini) or your 8th (Sagittarius) in April, so the tradition would put the month’s weight elsewhere and leave Taurus’s budgets to ordinary prudence.
