Overview for this Month: Pisces (All)
April 2023 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Pisces:
There's a stronger focus on predictability, security, and money matters this month, dear Pisces. Still, with Mars in your sector of joy all month, you also have more fire and passion for creating, loving, expressing yourself, and having fun. There is an inclination to impulsiveness and possibly conflict if issues of ego and attention are allowed to dominate. However, your romantic and creative worlds are exciting and engaging, and you tend to radiate more confidence and vigor in April.
It's a powerful month for earning and attracting the resources you need to live more comfortably. You're in a good frame of mind to take care of business, although you're increasingly interested in developing your skills and expanding your interests.
Mars has a way of bringing problem areas to the surface but gives you the courage and motivation to resolve them! Aim to channel excess energy into music, exercise, or dance, for example. A romance could heat up or have a competitive vibe, but if you've harbored some resentments, they can emerge with some force. Practice moderation and self-discipline while also following your heart for best results, keeping in mind that the trick to following your heart is to first know your heart. You will likely devote much of your energy to creative works, a romantic pursuit, leisure and entertainment, or hobbies. You're playing to win!
There can be competing energies between the drive for security and a need to put yourself out there. Nevertheless, you're well-positioned to gain footing, build resources, and develop your talents. The 10-11 is an opportunity period for finances, gifts, bonuses, and project ideas with long-term appeal and profitability.
As well, after the Solar Eclipse on the 20th, you can feel the fresh motivation to get on top of these things. It's a good time to take stock of where you're at in a business venture or with your finances and resources. You may even discover a resource or talent that has been dormant or left unnoticed. You're more confident about your ability to manifest your desires.
But first, the Full Moon on the 6th can pull out strong feelings and might lead to a revelation or epiphany about the need for support, whether this is emotional, moral, or financial. The balance of power in a relationship, debts, a partner's income, or other shared resources come to light. Push yourself to see what you've been ignoring or overlooking. New insight into a relationship, emotional, or financial problem can arrive, bringing about a turning point or new direction.
You're interested and engaged mentally this month. It's an excellent time for love connections, flirtations, and fun messages with people you care about. You'll also enjoy fantastic opportunities to boost your personal or family life.
The Solar Eclipse on the 20th is the first in a set that spans the coming two years. This series will prompt you to rework how you manage your money, talents, intimate life, dependencies, and support systems. With this eclipse, you're attending to your money, income, self-worth, and feelings of security. You're starting fresh with how you arrange your life to feel worthy, content, and secure. If you have been holding on too tightly to a lifestyle or financial habits that haven't served you well, you'll now see the need to make changes.
On the same day, the Sun moves into your communications sector, and your daily affairs, learning, connecting, and communicating are in stronger focus. You're keeping abreast of the goings-on around you, although you can be a little busy and unfocused at times.
Even with Mercury retrograde from the 21st, mental energy and enthusiasm run high. Improving and refining your communications, projects, and knowledge are especially important to you. You might connect with people and information that further your learning and networking opportunities, and there can be some lovely gems to be found by going over, reviewing, and editing old projects.
You're in great shape for creative learning, personal interests, romantic expression, and satisfying entertainment as you close out the month. Rewards come from activities that engage your heart or inspire you. In fact, the more motivated you feel, the better the results.

Pisces (Born February 20 to March 1) and Pisces Ascendant 0 to 10 degrees Pisces:
April 2023 Pisces Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
April 2023
The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness
Until April 20th:
The Sun continues to transit your solar second house. This is the most "financial" period of the year for you. You might have a more materialistic view of life for the time being, or you have an increased interest in your own possessions, during this cycle. You are more attracted to objects and possessions that give you a sense of comfort, status, or luxury now.
You probably should be on the lookout for a tendency to create your own financial stress due to extravagant spending habits. At this point in the year, you are unlikely to take many risks, however, and you can be quite resistant to change. This is a time when "comfort zones" are more important to you than usual--you value the familiar.
From April 20th forward:
The Sun is illuminating your communications sector now, suggesting "busy-ness" and movement. You are exploring and searching, making connections, and paying more attention to your immediate environment. Social interaction is in emphasis during this period, and is, for the most part, light-hearted.
Give other people a little extra time and attention, notice their efforts on your behalf, and strengthen your connections. You are more curious and alert than usual, and you could be quite busy with errands, paperwork, phone calls, and light socializing. Much energy is expended in understanding and adapting to your immediate environment. Siblings, neighbors, close relatives, friends, and co-workers may play a more important role than usual in your life during this cycle.
You are more interested in exploring your own neighborhood than you are of something entirely new. This is not a time of big adventure-seeking! Rather, it's a time of little adventures close to home.
Neither is this a time when you are especially focused. In fact, you could have a finger in many pies right now. You are especially resourceful, and you could find yourself enjoying (or seeking) attention for your intellectual know-how. The ability to express and communicate your ideas is extremely important to you at this time. You are eager to investigate new things, whether scientific or technical.
Eclipses
A Solar Eclipse occurs on April 20th:
A general rule of thumb regarding eclipses is to avoid major decision-making in the week before and after an eclipse. This is because new information that could change our perspective often is revealed in the week after the eclipse. There is absolutely no need to suspend projects already in progress. Essentially, it's better to take in right now--to observe and get in touch with feelings.
The Solar Eclipse marks a new beginning for you. Letting go of the past is necessary in order to move forward. This eclipse occurs in your solar second house, suggesting a new approach to handling money and personal resources or new sources of income.
A focus on ways to increase your income or a new budgeting/saving plan may be part of the picture in the coming months, as well as a sense of renewal and reinvigoration with regards to the way you handle making yourself feel comfortable and secure.
This is a phase when you have an increased awareness of the physical world of the senses, and this is a time to start fresh in terms of how you arrange your life in order to feel a sense of value and worthiness. It is also a wonderful time for taking moments to pleasure yourself through earthy, tactile, and comforting endeavors.
Venus this Month: Love, Romance, Social Life, Comfort, Pleasure
Until April 10th:
Venus continues to play in your solar third house during this period, indicating a more light-hearted, curious, and intellectual approach to love and pleasure, as well as a more easygoing communicative style.
During this cycle, you are especially charming in your communications. Your words are soothing, and you tend to use words to smooth over problems that you see around you. You are mostly cheerful in your approach to others, and perhaps somewhat intellectual.
Essentially, you are quite companionable during this cycle. You enjoy talking about what interests you, and you see value in the exchange of ideas. Sometimes this transit brings benefit through siblings, communications, or short trips. Good companionship is as equally important as romance to you during this cycle.
You prefer an intellectual, communicative, and witty partner just now, and your powers of attraction increase through expressing these types of qualities. You are most attracted to wit, cheerfulness, and verbal rapport, and you are especially good at mediating conflicts now. If you were to begin a romance or friendship during this cycle, it would likely be quite light-hearted.
From April 11th forward:
Venus warms your solar fourth house now. During this cycle, you are especially fond of the life of the home and family. You are more receptive and gentle on a romantic level, and tend to be sentimental or nostalgic.
You may particularly value the aesthetics in and around your home during this period. If things are out of whack on the home front, you will do whatever you can to create a peaceful and stable atmosphere.
In relationships, loyalty and sensitivity are more important to you than typically. You might focus on ways to earn money in or from your home. This is a calming influence--a time when simple pleasures most appeal.
Mercury this Month: Communications, Learning, Connections, Transportation
From April 3rd forward:
Mercury is right at home in the third house and offers a natural curiosity, facility with words, and the ability to multi-task successfully. More time spent on the phone, writing emails, in the car making short frequent trips, chatting, running errands, communicating with neighbors and siblings, visiting friends and relatives, and doing paperwork is likely now. There can also be a tendency to fuss over insignificant matters now, however.
Also, "information overload" is also a possibility. This may be a busy time with neighbors, classmates, siblings, and community affairs. Your interests are especially varied now and perhaps scattered. It's an ideal time to pick up information from your environment and the people in it, as your tendency is toward a certain level of intellectual detachment just now. Your mind is often distracted, particularly when circumstances call for you to stick to the routine, so this is not the best transit for focusing on one task or project.
Your mind is especially inquisitive during this cycle, when learning, short trips, and other forms of communication and making connections, appeal strongly. Some are fidgety or nervous during this cycle, perhaps due to increased errand-running, phone calls, and the like. Others enjoy the challenge of tackling a variety of subjects. As well, talking, writing, and studying can be good ways to handle stress.
Mercury is retrograde from April 21st to May 14th:
All Mercury retrograde cycles particularly affect you in terms of communications with a partner or about partnerships, as well as communications with or about family and home, because Mercury rules these areas of your life. It will be important to avoid signing any contracts or making important partnership or family/home decisions during this cycle.
Occurring in your solar third house this time, extra care should be exercised when it comes to composing letters, emails, making phone calls, and with communications in general. There may be the need to revisit old, nagging issues with siblings or neighbors, errands could go wrong, you might have trouble getting from point A to point B (example, transportation problems), emails or letters get lost, and so forth. Idle chit- chatting during this period may have repercussions! People might be misunderstanding your words. You may be forgetful during this cycle, and it makes sense to allow yourself extra time to get to appointments, if they are not cancelled in the first place! It would also be wise to double-check your work and communications before sending them off.
Mars this Month: Energy, Drive, Courage
All month:
Mars continues to energize your solar fifth house. This brings increased energy and enthusiasm to romance, child-rearing, and creative or recreational endeavors. It can also bring some strife to these areas of your world in some cases. For the most part, however, a romance could pick up pace, you are self-motivated and inspired on creative and expressive levels, and your self-confidence is well-received by others during this cycle. You are more willing to take little risks and you are competitive in a mostly friendly way. In your enthusiasm to take the lead, try to be sensitive to and respectful of others' needs.

Pisces (Born March 2 to March 11) and Pisces Ascendant 10 to 20 degrees Pisces:
April 2023 Pisces Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
April 2023
The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness
All month:
The Sun highlights your second house now, and your focus is on material affairs and comfort issues. Security is a driving force for you at the moment, and you might find that you are especially interested in accumulating possessions. What you have and what you don't have come into focus--what makes you feel comfortable, your sense of security, and what you value.
This is the time of year when personal finances and possessions receive maximum attention. Pour your energy into your work and your finances, and you might just be able to take your ideas to the bank.
Extravagance with your pocketbook is something you may want to look out for, however. If you find yourself itching to make unnecessary purchases, know that at the root of this urge is the desire to pamper and comfort yourself. Nothing wrong with it, but there are inexpensive (and even free) ways to make yourself feel good.
This is not the most eventful time of year for you. You are more inclined to dig in your heels and hang on to what makes you feel most secure than to take big risks.

Mercury this Month: Communications, Learning, Connections, Transportation
Until April 10th:
Mercury continues to transit your solar second house. You might play with various ways to increase personal funds, resulting in more than one avenue for monetary gain. Avoid letting undue pressure from others push you into signing important papers that may create a serious financial commitment. Shopping when experiencing nervous tension should also be avoided. Your mind is always active with new ideas for an increase of income during this cycle. Brothers or sisters, or communications, may be a source of financial or material gain or loss now.
From April 11th:
Mercury is right at home in the third house and offers a natural curiosity, facility with words, and the ability to multi-task successfully.

It would also be wise to double-check your work and communications before sending them off.
Mars this Month: Energy, Drive, Courage
Until April 13th:
Mars continues to activate your solar fourth house. More energy and enthusiasm is brought to your home life, but there can also be a tendency to stir up trouble if you are not careful to channel any excess energy into constructive and productive pursuits around the home. You desire to take the lead, but you should do so in a respectful way so as not to get anyone's goat.
From April 14th forward:
Mars animates and energizes your solar fifth house. This is a very self-expressive time when you have lots of energy, but not necessarily self-discipline to match. You have more energy at your disposal to express yourself creatively, through activities with children, romantic activities, hobbies, or sports. Your love life may step up a notch, and this could be an especially passionate time. You tend to put more energy into play and pleasure! Be careful not to burn the candle at both ends. Also, watch out for a tendency to want to gamble. You are more playful than usual, and especially magnetic. You have a likeably competitive, more energetic, and pleasingly assertive temperament during this transit. However, in some cases, you may be coming on too strong or aggressively, or meeting with aggressiveness in romantic relationships.

AND Pisces Ascendant from 20 to 30 degrees Pisces:
April 2023 Pisces Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
April 2023
The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness
Until April 9th:
The Sun continues to move through your solar first house. You experience a renewal of energy and vitality now, and it's a strong time for increased personal confidence. The emphasis is on self-expression, what kind of impression you make on others, and beginning new personal projects.
You are a little more self-centered than usual, and this is quite natural and healthy as long as you don't take it too far. You are more decisive and forward-looking now, and you put more faith in your own abilities. Physically, you are likely feeling strong. This is an excellent cycle for making personal changes in your manner or appearance, and for any self-improvement endeavors. Personal projects that you begin now are likely to blossom nine months down the road.
From April 10th forward:
The Sun highlights your second house now, and your focus is on material affairs and comfort issues. Security is a driving force for you at the moment, and you might find that you are especially interested in accumulating possessions.

Nothing wrong with it, but there are inexpensive (and even free) ways to make yourself feel good.
This is not the most eventful time of year for you. You are more inclined to dig in your heels and hang on to what makes you feel most secure than to take big risks.

Venus this Month: Love, Romance, Social Life, Comfort
From the 2-28:
With Venus moving through your solar third house during this period, you are mostly cheerful in your approach to others, and perhaps somewhat intellectual, during this transit. Essentially, you are quite companionable now. You enjoy talking about what interests you, and you find great value in the exchange of ideas. Sometimes this transit brings benefit through siblings, communications, or short trips. During this period, you are most attracted to wit, cheerfulness, and verbal rapport. You are especially good at mediating conflicts. Smoothing over differences using your diplomacy skills figures now.
From April 28th forward:
Venus warms your solar fourth house now. During this cycle, you are especially fond of the life of the home and family. You are more receptive and gentle on a romantic level, and tend to be sentimental or nostalgic.
You may particularly value the aesthetics in and around your home during this period. If things are out of whack on the home front, you will do whatever you can to create a peaceful and stable atmosphere.
In relationships, loyalty and sensitivity are more important to you than typically. You might focus on ways to earn money in or from your home. This is a calming influence--a time when simple pleasures most appeal.
Mercury this Month: Communications, Learning, Connections, Transportation
This month:
Mercury continues to transit your solar second house. You might play with various ways to increase personal funds, resulting in more than one avenue for monetary gain. Avoid letting undue pressure from others push you into signing important papers that may create a serious financial commitment. Shopping when experiencing nervous tension should also be avoided. Your mind is always active with new ideas for an increase of income during this cycle. Brothers or sisters, or communications, may be a source of financial or material gain or loss now.
Mercury is retrograde from April 21st to May 14th:
All Mercury retrograde cycles particularly affect you in terms of communications with a partner or about partnerships, as well as communications with or about family and home, because Mercury rules these areas of your life. It will be important to avoid signing any contracts or making important partnership or family/home decisions during this cycle.
Occurring in your solar second house this time, extra care should be exercised when it comes to new financial initiatives. There may be the need to revisit old, nagging issues regarding personal finances. Take this time to re-budget instead of making premature purchases. Hold off on major decision-making regarding money. Instead, take the time to re-think your sources of income and how you spend your cash during this period, but put off finalizing anything important for the time being. In fact, some money-making ideas or ventures may be put on hold due to circumstances beyond your control. This is an excellent period for review, however.
Mars this Month: Energy, Drive, Courage
This month:
Mars continues to activate your solar fourth house. More energy and enthusiasm is brought to your home life, but there can also be a tendency to stir up trouble if you are not careful to channel any excess energy into constructive and productive pursuits around the home. You desire to take the lead, but you should do so in a respectful way so as not to get anyone's goat.
Overview Horoscope:
April 2023 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Pisces:
There's a stronger focus on predictability, security, and money matters this month, dear Pisces. Still, with Mars in your sector of joy all month, you also have more fire and passion for creating, loving, expressing yourself, and having fun. There is an inclination to impulsiveness and possibly conflict if issues of ego and attention are allowed to dominate. However, your romantic and creative worlds are exciting and engaging, and you tend to radiate more confidence and vigor in April.
It's a powerful month for earning and attracting the resources you need to live more comfortably. You're in a good frame of mind to take care of business, although you're increasingly interested in developing your skills and expanding your interests.
Mars has a way of bringing problem areas to the surface but gives you the courage and motivation to resolve them! Aim to channel excess energy into music, exercise, or dance, for example. A romance could heat up or have a competitive vibe, but if you've harbored some resentments, they can emerge with some force. Practice moderation and self-discipline while also following your heart for best results, keeping in mind that the trick to following your heart is to first know your heart. You will likely devote much of your energy to creative works, a romantic pursuit, leisure and entertainment, or hobbies. You're playing to win!
There can be competing energies between the drive for security and a need to put yourself out there. Nevertheless, you're well-positioned to gain footing, build resources, and develop your talents. The 10-11 is an opportunity period for finances, gifts, bonuses, and project ideas with long-term appeal and profitability.
As well, after the Solar Eclipse on the 20th, you can feel the fresh motivation to get on top of these things. It's a good time to take stock of where you're at in a business venture or with your finances and resources. You may even discover a resource or talent that has been dormant or left unnoticed. You're more confident about your ability to manifest your desires.
But first, the Full Moon on the 6th can pull out strong feelings and might lead to a revelation or epiphany about the need for support, whether this is emotional, moral, or financial. The balance of power in a relationship, debts, a partner's income, or other shared resources come to light. Push yourself to see what you've been ignoring or overlooking. New insight into a relationship, emotional, or financial problem can arrive, bringing about a turning point or new direction.
You're interested and engaged mentally this month. It's an excellent time for love connections, flirtations, and fun messages with people you care about. You'll also enjoy fantastic opportunities to boost your personal or family life.
The Solar Eclipse on the 20th is the first in a set that spans the coming two years. This series will prompt you to rework how you manage your money, talents, intimate life, dependencies, and support systems. With this eclipse, you're attending to your money, income, self-worth, and feelings of security. You're starting fresh with how you arrange your life to feel worthy, content, and secure. If you have been holding on too tightly to a lifestyle or financial habits that haven't served you well, you'll now see the need to make changes.
On the same day, the Sun moves into your communications sector, and your daily affairs, learning, connecting, and communicating are in stronger focus. You're keeping abreast of the goings-on around you, although you can be a little busy and unfocused at times.
Even with Mercury retrograde from the 21st, mental energy and enthusiasm run high. Improving and refining your communications, projects, and knowledge are especially important to you. You might connect with people and information that further your learning and networking opportunities, and there can be some lovely gems to be found by going over, reviewing, and editing old projects.
You're in great shape for creative learning, personal interests, romantic expression, and satisfying entertainment as you close out the month. Rewards come from activities that engage your heart or inspire you. In fact, the more motivated you feel, the better the results.

About Our Monthly Horoscopes:
Our detailed monthly horoscopes are designed to reveal and interpret the current transits of the Sun, Mercury, Venus, and Mars in your solar chart. Because these energies or transits do not unfold neatly into any given calendar month (many transits carry forward from one month to the next), you will find some of the energies continue from a previous month. For example, the Sun might transit the second house of your solar chart from June 21 to July 22, so that you will find a similar interpretation for this transit in both June and July’s horoscope. This is normal and expected. While new months can hold new energy, transits don’t abruptly change because the calendar month changes.
These monthly horoscopes also include an overview paragraph, as well as other energies specific to the month, such as retrogrades, eclipses, or major outer planet transits.
The Highlights section reveal lunar cycle dates. Lunar cycles repeat themselves approximately every 28 days, so it is normal to see the same lunar peaks, such as “Your Personal New Moon” and “Monthly career peak” repeat themselves from month to month, but with different dates. They serve as a helpful guide to cycle peaks in different areas of life, such as financial, career, romance, and partnership.
The horoscopes are divided into three groups or decanates, and the differences between the groups are subtle in parts and large in other parts. For those who prefer a whole sign approach to horoscopes (classic), simply read the first decanate regardless of your birthdate.
