A Tarot Reader Predicts What Every Zodiac Should Expect This April

Aries

Your card: Four of Wands

This month will hold a celebration for you, Aries—whether that be your birthday (it is still your season, after all!), a wedding, or that sweet pre-graduation bliss. But even if there’s not a specific event you’re looking forward to, that doesn’t change the celebratory feelings that are in the air for you. Things have been feeler better than ever, and you’re ready to make the most of it with your family and friends—and most importantly, with yourself. Enjoy it!

Taurus

Your card: Ten of Swords, reversed

You’re not the kind of person who likes to give up, Taurus, so it’s no surprise that you might be resisting an inevitable ending in April. Sometimes you’d rather turn a blind eye when something that was once good turns sour, but the truth is that the longer you resist accepting this situation, the more it’ll hurt you in the end. It is time to let go of the things that are no longer serving you—but the good news this card also indicates that something painful is finally coming to an end, and in choosing to accept this, you’ll finally begin to heal.

Gemini

Your card: Nine of Wands

You’ve been through a lot lately, Gemini—you don’t need the tarot cards to tell you that. But the cards do bring good news to you, and it’s this: Times may be hard, but they’re coming to an end. You’re so close to reaching your goal, to getting to that stable place you need to be, you just can’t give up yet. You have to keep pushing through, keep defending yourself, for just a little longer, because soon you’ll finally be at the top of this mountain and finally get to enjoy the view.

Cancer

Your card: Six of Pentacles, reversed

April is the month of self-care for you, Cancer—and chances are, you need it. You are a nurturer by nature, but this is your reminder that it’s just as important to give to yourself as it is to give to others. Make sure that you’re putting the appropriate amount of energy back toward yourself and really reevaluate the things in your life that rejuvenate you vs. drain you. It’s possible there are some situations in your life that are sucking up all your energy, and if this is the case, it may be time to make a change.

Leo

Your card: Death

Don’t worry, Leo, the Death card often sounds scarier than it actually is. While it does usually signify endings, it’s oftentimes better to think of it as a rebirth—because in one cycle of your life ending, it is allowing another to begin. This April, you can finally look forward to leaving behind certain things that may not serve your life path and starting anew, with a fresh energy and a new perspective from everything you’ve learned along the way to get here.

Virgo

Your card: Five of Pentacles, reversed

If things have been difficult for you, Virgo, this is a great sign that those hardships may be coming to an end. If you’ve been struggling financially, or even spiritually, you may find yourself stumbling into a new situation that will finally help you find some of the stability you seek. That being said, this card is also a good reminder that if you’ve been focusing too much on what you believe you lack in life, it’s time to step back and really appreciate the things you do have, because sometimes we find abundance in what’s been there all along.

Libra

Your card: Seven of Pentacles

You’re going to be putting a lot of work in this month, Libra—but that’s not necessarily a bad thing. On the contrary, you have your eye on the prize and you’re willing to do what it takes to find the success you seek. Just remember that sometimes the process isn’t as shiny or exciting as the reward promises to be, and that’s okay. Just keep showing up and putting in the work, because even though it may be tedious and tiring now, it’ll all feel worth it once you get to the end.

Scorpio

Your card: Page of Cups

Good news, Scorpio: You have a lot of positive creative and spiritual energies headed your way in April. You may feel more inspired than usual or dreamier than you’re used to being, and it makes you wonder if maybe the rose-colored glasses aren’t always such a bad thing to wear. Enjoy these positive feelings and trust your intuition. Also be sure to keep your eye out for unexpected surprises this month—there’s a good chance you’ll get a message that will make your heart feel full.

Sagittarius

Your card: Kind of Swords

You are really stepping into your power this month, Sagittarius, and those around you can’t ignore it. You are ruling over your life with logic, courage, and intellect, and because of that you’re able to cut to the truth of the matter and really see the world for what it is. You’re not afraid to do what you need to in April, nor should you be—the world needs your vision right now.

Capricorn

Your card: Seven of Wands

I hate to break it to you, Capricorn, but April might be a particularly challenging month for you. You have worked hard to get to where you are in life right now, but the downside of success is that there are often going to be people who want to push you off your pedestal or covet what you’ve rightly earned. Just know that you’re in a good position to defend yourself and fight for what you want in life

Aquarius

Your card: Seven of Cups, reversed

You’re faced with a lot of choices to make this month, Aquarius, but what’s important here is that you really listen to your own intuition. It’s easy to get caught up in what others think you should do—or even what you think you should do, based on everything people tell you—but it’s important to make sure that your choices align with your values and what it is you actually want out of life. If you’re overwhelmed, take a step back and really look within—you’ll find the answer there.

Pisces

Your card: Nine of Pentacles

You’ve worked hard, Pisces, and now you finally get to appreciate the fruits of your labor. April will be for indulging in luxuries and allowing yourself to enjoy the comforts you’ve been craving. This is truly a card of contentment, so allow yourself to enjoy the good vibes before the next challenge comes along—those are things you can worry about later.
