Overview for this Month: Taurus (All)
April 2022 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Taurus:
April gets off to a motivating start with your career or life-path goals in solid focus and perhaps some extra attention on professional levels, dear Taurus. Nevertheless, the Sun and Mercury are transiting a hidden area of your chart until the 19th and 10th, respectively, pointing to the need for personal downtime as you wind down your solar year. You may be a little more private or insular than usual.
It’s a natural time of year for some retreat, withdrawal, or a sabbatical — emotional and physical renewal before your birthday month. This could be symbolic only but important as you recharge and refresh. Some things may be up in the air now, and these things need additional time to mature. It’s not the time to rush.
If you need to handle a private matter or deal with an ending or a problem from the past, the week following the New Moon on the 1st is powerful. Responsibilities are strong on you around the 4th, but ease off as the month progresses. You could be in the position to take the lead or make a decision, and it weighs on you as Mars and Saturn head into a meeting on the 4th.
While insular on a personal level, your reputation, career, professional developments, and responsibilities continue to grab your attention as you begin the month. Still, things are shifting as the month progresses, and Venus and Mars head into your social sector on the 5th and 14th. These transits are remarkable for added charisma with friends and groups. Jupiter's already in this sector, and it aligns with magical Neptune on the 12th. Venus-Mars-Jupiter keeps you engaged, creative, popular, and curious.
All in all, it's shaping up to be a powerful time for your social life, networking, and communicating as April progresses. You could build a following for your ideas or work. You're making connections and sharing your ideas, and you enjoy experimenting and entertaining new ideas. Fortunately, you're more confident in what you have to offer others and the community, and you have faith in your happiness goals and dreams. You may be taking the lead in a group, or people may be looking to you for guidance. New people coming into your life could inspire you to make important changes and improvements. Love requires more emotional space, acceptance, and tolerance. Then again, it's possible you find love through group associations, networking, and friends.
With Jupiter and Neptune coming together this month, friendships can feel magical or confusing! Certainly, your dreams and ideals play a considerable role in your social life. More faith in the universe is possible through your connections.
Look for ways to improve physical and mental health through activities and mind-body healing techniques when the Full Moon on the 16th reminds you to attend to your overall well-being. It's also a time when you recognize the need to better manage your daily affairs.
Mercury moves into your sign on the 10th, and you find your voice. The Sun moves into Taurus on the 19th, boosting your sense of personal power and increasing your influence and presence. These transits also bring out the need to share your ideas and use the power of words to improve your life. Use this extra boost of visibility to further your plans. It's a fine time to consider new personal initiatives, make changes to your presentation or appearance, and update your year-ahead resolutions.
Pluto turns retrograde on the 29th, and you're more aware of evolving relationship needs. Strong feelings about partnership or a specific person can emerge. Still, you may need to back off a situation just a little so that you can gain perspective and see where you’ve been too attached, controlling, or tense. You may be reassessing, observing, and gaining a new vision of a close relationship, publishing project, educational path, or belief system in the months ahead.
The 30th brings a Solar Eclipse in your sign, acting as a powerful slate cleaner. Something new begins, and it can feel much like a new chapter in your life story. You are ready to kick bad habits, start fresh, and present a more self-assured “you” to the world. However, this can emerge from a feeling that you’re very much not in control or in charge, so there can be some discomfort involved. The eclipse receives nice support, suggesting that efforts put forth now lead to successful, rewarding changes. Before this date, focus on review, meditation, and activities that help you purge or process and release negative energy.
Going forward, you’re likely to find yourself at a turning point or experiencing a significant shift. This eclipse is part of a series that began last November and ends in October 2023. You’re in the midst of this robust process in which you’re reinventing yourself in a meaningful way, getting in touch with your personal power and independence. You’re changing how you approach the world, and as you do, you’ll find that you attract different experiences and people into your life. This can be a time of social refreshment and detox from pressured situations and goals. You're feeding your soul and reminding yourself that happiness counts!

Taurus (Born April 21 to 30) and Taurus Ascendant from 0 to 10 degrees Taurus:
April 2022 Taurus Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
April 2022
The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness
Until April 19th:
The Sun continues to shine its light on your solar twelfth house. This is the time to listen to your intuition, to take a break from the hectic pace of your life, and to reflect on what you have learned in the past year. You might naturally retreat a little and take more private time for yourself now.
Your physical energy levels may not be up to par for the time being, and this is your body signaling you to take a break. This is not an ideal time for pushing forward with new personal projects and plans. It is better to finish up projects and tie up loose ends now.
From April 20th forward:
The Sun illuminates your first house now, bringing issues surrounding your personal identity, appearance, outward behavior, and self-expression to the forefront. This marks the peak of your physical solar cycle, and you are in the position to make an impression on others, and to assert your personal influence. Spontaneity of expression is what this transit is about. You are ready to put your past behind you and to start a new personal cycle. You have presence and you project confidence. Increased energy and a renewed feeling of confidence is with you now, so take advantage.
It's a great month to do something entirely new and pioneering—to go solo in some area of your life. This particular season of the year smiles on your personal endeavors. This is a time when you more easily get in touch with a true sense of your identity and purpose. The most enterprising side of your nature surfaces, and it's time to seize opportunities. Existing problems in your life may be overcome now by bravery and a straightforward approach to your life.
There's nothing wrong with a bit of self-centeredness during this cycle, but avoid taking it too far. It's not the best time for teamwork and other cooperative endeavors. The spotlight is on you and your ability to lead, so make it a good one! Take steps to improve how you come across to others. It's time to carve your own path in life.
Venus this Month: Love, Romance, Social Life, Comfort, Pleasure
Until April 5th:
Venus continues to transit your solar tenth house. Relationships with authority figures, superiors, and with the public are in focus during this cycle. It's a strong period for diplomatic relations, although a negative expression of this position could be bending over backwards to please rather than positive, friendly relations. It's a time when being a team player reaps the most rewards, and you may be mixing business with pleasure now. This may be a time when you are especially enjoying your career or position and making the most of it.
From April 5th:
Venus graces your solar eleventh house now. Forming harmonious, warm social friendships, possibly related to group activities within a club, can figure now. You may meet someone through such group activities; consequently, your interests will be shared. Whether or not you do, the bottom line is that sharing interests with someone is what makes you happy during this cycle. Venus here enlivens your friendships and group associations with charm and grace. You are more peace-loving than usual and slightly detached on a personal level. If a romance were to begin during this time frame, it would be characterized by a strong feeling of camaraderie, but it could also be rather impersonal and perhaps lacking in depth and intimacy.
Mercury this Month: Communications, Learning, Connections, Transportation
Until April 10th:
Mercury continues to transit your solar twelfth house. This is a cycle in which clear decision-making does not come easily. You are paying more attention to unspoken or hidden elements of any circumstance. You are seeing all sides to any given story, and forming a definite opinion does not seem "right" for the time being. Thoughts turn to the past. It's a strong period for gaining different perspectives on problems or issues in your life, as well as for reflection and research, but not the easiest time for presenting your ideas.
From April 11-29:
With Mercury in your solar first house, you are most inclined to speak up about matters that you previously were only mulling over. Your disposition is more intellectual than usual now, and self-expression comes easily. You are sharper than usual--more observant, and more inclined to "live in the head". Relationships with siblings, neighbors, classmates, and casual friends may become more prominent in your life now.
It is likely that you will initiate discussions during this period, evaluate your appearance and the impact you have on those around you, and make contact with others rather than stay chained to any one place or activity.
This is the time to be direct and to communicate your needs and interests. You are more inclined to talk about yourself and your personal past now. This may also be a restless time when it is difficult to turn the thinking process off when it would be better to relax! It is an especially fruitful time for any endeavor that requires dealing with words, ideas, and facts and figures.
Your demeanor is more youthful, perhaps mischievous, light-hearted, and non-threatening so that others may be more inclined to turn to you for advice or pleasant conversation. Using the power of words to attract what you want or to further your interests works best for you now.
From April 30th forward:
With Mercury in your solar second house, this is a strong period for analyzing your cash flow, income, and earning power. You are more practical and rational in your approach to finances during this period. With your conscious mind focused on money and possessions, as well as personal values, this can be a strong period for gathering new money-making ideas.
Alternatively, it could be a time when you tend to fret over your finances. Conversations tend to be practical rather than frivolous now. Financial gain may come through communications.
Mars this Month: Energy, Drive, Courage
Until April 14th:
Mars continues to energize your solar tenth house now. You bring much energy, enthusiasm, and drive to your career or to directing activities in your life during this cycle. You may be quite competitive during this period, preferring to achieve and accomplish things on your own. This attitude can, in some cases, be seen by others as an instigating or otherwise offensive energy, so be aware of that possibility.
This is a strong time for directly pursuing your goals, and, if you need that extra push or oomph to get a plan going, particularly a professional one, or to assert your desires, then this is the time. You are self-motivated, and your enthusiasm can be harnessed if you so choose.
From April 15th forward:
Mars is energizing your solar eleventh house now. Group activities and cooperative efforts are the best way to achieve your goals right now. In fact, you have all sorts of ideas about what you want to do. Avoid allowing the ego to attempt to dominate others. You prefer to lead a group rather than follow during this period, and there are certainly ways to do so without stepping on others' toes.
As well, the best way to achieve your goals during this period is to work as a team, or to at least to do some networking. You may have more energy than usual to want to organize projects. Your humanitarian impulse may be stimulated. The role you play for other people in your life becomes the focus. You may feel that your schedule gets overloaded at this time with things to do (usually for others).

Taurus (Born May 1 to 10) and Taurus Ascendant from 10 to 20 degrees Taurus:
April 2022 Taurus Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
April 2022
The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness
All month:
The Sun travels through your twelfth house now, marking a time of retreat and regeneration. Think about the attachments you have--to things, people, and routines--and consider which ones are dragging you down. This is a time when competitive energies and the ego are on a bit of a break.
It's not the time to push ahead with brand new projects. Rather, it's a time of reflection, dreaming, and recharging your batteries. Situations that have naturally outgrown their usefulness in your life can now be put behind you. Endings of natural cycles may be part of the picture at this time of year. Your energy is largely applied to personal and private affairs now. Your disposition is introspective. Rest and reflect, and prepare for a more outgoing cycle when the Sun moves into your first house.
Venus this Month: Love, Romance, Social Life, Comfort
Until April 14th:
Venus continues to transit your solar tenth house. Relationships with authority figures, superiors, and with the public are in focus during this cycle. It's a strong period for diplomatic relations, although a negative expression of this position could be bending over backwards to please rather than positive, friendly relations. It's a time when being a team player reaps the most rewards, and you may be mixing business with pleasure now.

If a romance were to begin during this time frame, it would be characterized by a strong feeling of camaraderie, but it could also be rather impersonal and perhaps lacking in depth and intimacy.
Mercury this Month: Communications, Learning, Connections, Transportation
From the 1-15:
Your mind is focused on private matters and past issues while Mercury transits the twelfth house of your solar chart. This is a time when you are least likely to speak out of turn or to express yourself freely. You're searching behind the curtain, and examining the past for answers.
This is a good time for research, quiet contemplation, and meditation; but do avoid getting dragged down by issues that have outgrown their worth and purpose. Examining the past in order to improve the future is certainly worthwhile, as long as you don't waste your energy on guilt. Creative endeavors could prosper now, particularly those that draw upon the emotions or that require creative visualization skills, such as poetry, art, acting, and other such activities.
You are likely to require a certain amount of solitude in order to get your thoughts together or to be mentally productive. You are less likely to chat indiscriminately during this transit, and tend to be a little secretive or tight-lipped for the time being. This may be important, in fact, because this position of Mercury is sometimes associated with the uncovering of secrets, so discretion may be in order.
From the 16th:
With Mercury in your solar first house, you are most inclined to speak up about matters that you previously were only mulling over. Your disposition is more intellectual than usual now, and self-expression comes easily. You are sharper than usual--more observant, and more inclined to "live in the head". Relationships with siblings, neighbors, classmates, and casual friends may become more prominent in your life now.
It is likely that you will initiate discussions during this period, evaluate your appearance and the impact you have on those around you, and make contact with others rather than stay chained to any one place or activity.

Taurus (Born May 11 to 21) AND Taurus Ascendant from 20 to 30 degrees Taurus:
April 2022 Taurus Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
April 2022
The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness
Until April 9th:
The Sun continues to put a spotlight on your solar eleventh house. During this cycle, you are planting seeds for the future, dreaming up plans that you might begin to develop two months down the road, if they still seem viable then. You are more aware of the benefits of networking, and you might find some great ideas through others now. You might be working in a team now.
You could be questioning some of the rules you have been living by and you could be ready to try something totally new. You are more attracted to that which is progressive or unconventional during this cycle.
From April 10th forward:
The Sun travels through your twelfth house now, marking a time of retreat and regeneration. Think about the attachments you have--to things, people, and routines--and consider which ones are dragging you down. This is a time when competitive energies and the ego are on a bit of a break.
It's not the time to push ahead with brand new projects. Rather, it's a time of reflection, dreaming, and recharging your batteries.

Your energy is largely applied to personal and private affairs now. Your disposition is introspective. Rest and reflect, and prepare for a more outgoing cycle when the Sun moves into your first house.
Venus this Month: Love, Romance, Social Life, Comfort
Until the 23rd:
Venus continues to transit your solar tenth house. Relationships with authority figures, superiors, and with the public are in focus during this cycle. It's a strong period for diplomatic relations, although a negative expression of this position could be bending over backwards to please rather than positive, friendly relations. It's a time when being a team player reaps the most rewards, and you may be mixing business with pleasure now. This may be a time when you are especially enjoying your career or position and making the most of it.
From April 23rd forward:
Venus graces your solar eleventh house now. Forming harmonious, warm social friendships, possibly related to group activities within a club, can figure now. You may meet someone through such group activities; consequently, your interests will be shared. Whether or not you do, the bottom line is that sharing interests with someone is what makes you happy during this cycle.

If a romance were to begin during this time frame, it would be characterized by a strong feeling of camaraderie, but it could also be rather impersonal and perhaps lacking in depth and intimacy.
Mercury this Month: Communications, Learning, Connections, Transportation
Until the 6th:
Mercury continues to journey through your solar eleventh house. This is a time when conversations with friends and various networking activities are much appreciated and offer learning experiences. Your ideas just now are especially progressive and unconventional, as you are questioning the rules you typically live by and entertaining some wild ideas.
Not all of these ideas are necessarily going to last or lead to new projects, but it's a time of dreaming up new possibilities and new possible solutions to problems. You are especially interested in spending time with people who are like-minded. Social interactions are more frequent, light, and fun during this cycle.
From April 6-21:
Your mind is focused on private matters and past issues while Mercury transits the twelfth house of your solar chart. This is a time when you are least likely to speak out of turn or to express yourself freely. You're searching behind the curtain, and examining the past for answers.
This is a good time for research, quiet contemplation, and meditation; but do avoid getting dragged down by issues that have outgrown their worth and purpose. Examining the past in order to improve the future is certainly worthwhile, as long as you don't waste your energy on guilt. Creative endeavors could prosper now, particularly those that draw upon the emotions or that require creative visualization skills, such as poetry, art, acting, and other such activities.
You are likely to require a certain amount of solitude in order to get your thoughts together or to be mentally productive. You are less likely to chat indiscriminately during this transit, and tend to be a little secretive or tight-lipped for the time being. This may be important, in fact, because this position of Mercury is sometimes associated with the uncovering of secrets, so discretion may be in order.
From April 21st forward:
With Mercury in your solar first house, you are most inclined to speak up about matters that you previously were only mulling over. Your disposition is more intellectual than usual now, and self-expression comes easily. You are sharper than usual--more observant, and more inclined to "live in the head". Relationships with siblings, neighbors, classmates, and casual friends may become more prominent in your life now.
It is likely that you will initiate discussions during this period, evaluate your appearance and the impact you have on those around you, and make contact with others rather than stay chained to any one place or activity.
This is the time to be direct and to communicate your needs and interests. You are more inclined to talk about yourself and your personal past now. This may also be a restless time when it is difficult to turn the thinking process off when it would be better to relax! It is an especially fruitful time for any endeavor that requires dealing with words, ideas, and facts and figures.
Your demeanor is more youthful, perhaps mischievous, light-hearted, and non-threatening so that others may be more inclined to turn to you for advice or pleasant conversation. Using the power of words to attract what you want or to further your interests works best for you now.
Mars this Month: Energy, Drive, Courage
From the 1st forward:
Mars animates and energizes your solar tenth house. This transit stimulates your ambition and/or your desire to be recognized for your accomplishments. Whether it's professional or personal, you are likely to have an increased desire for others to notice you. This can be a good time to become self-employed or start a business if other factors (and Mars itself) are favorable. Conflicts with those in authority are possible now. You may pour more energy into self-promotion or business/career activities.
Overview Horoscope:
April 2022 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Taurus:
April gets off to a motivating start with your career or life-path goals in solid focus and perhaps some extra attention on professional levels, dear Taurus. Nevertheless, the Sun and Mercury are transiting a hidden area of your chart until the 19th and 10th, respectively, pointing to the need for personal downtime as you wind down your solar year. You may be a little more private or insular than usual.
It’s a natural time of year for some retreat, withdrawal, or a sabbatical — emotional and physical renewal before your birthday month. This could be symbolic only but important as you recharge and refresh. Some things may be up in the air now, and these things need additional time to mature. It’s not the time to rush.
If you need to handle a private matter or deal with an ending or a problem from the past, the week following the New Moon on the 1st is powerful. Responsibilities are strong on you around the 4th, but ease off as the month progresses. You could be in the position to take the lead or make a decision, and it weighs on you as Mars and Saturn head into a meeting on the 4th.
While insular on a personal level, your reputation, career, professional developments, and responsibilities continue to grab your attention as you begin the month. Still, things are shifting as the month progresses, and Venus and Mars head into your social sector on the 5th and 14th. These transits are remarkable for added charisma with friends and groups. Jupiter's already in this sector, and it aligns with magical Neptune on the 12th. Venus-Mars-Jupiter keeps you engaged, creative, popular, and curious.
All in all, it's shaping up to be a powerful time for your social life, networking, and communicating as April progresses. You could build a following for your ideas or work. You're making connections and sharing your ideas, and you enjoy experimenting and entertaining new ideas. Fortunately, you're more confident in what you have to offer others and the community, and you have faith in your happiness goals and dreams. You may be taking the lead in a group, or people may be looking to you for guidance. New people coming into your life could inspire you to make important changes and improvements. Love requires more emotional space, acceptance, and tolerance. Then again, it's possible you find love through group associations, networking, and friends.
With Jupiter and Neptune coming together this month, friendships can feel magical or confusing! Certainly, your dreams and ideals play a considerable role in your social life. More faith in the universe is possible through your connections.
Look for ways to improve physical and mental health through activities and mind-body healing techniques when the Full Moon on the 16th reminds you to attend to your overall well-being. It's also a time when you recognize the need to better manage your daily affairs.
Mercury moves into your sign on the 10th, and you find your voice. The Sun moves into Taurus on the 19th, boosting your sense of personal power and increasing your influence and presence. These transits also bring out the need to share your ideas and use the power of words to improve your life. Use this extra boost of visibility to further your plans. It's a fine time to consider new personal initiatives, make changes to your presentation or appearance, and update your year-ahead resolutions.
Pluto turns retrograde on the 29th, and you're more aware of evolving relationship needs. Strong feelings about partnership or a specific person can emerge. Still, you may need to back off a situation just a little so that you can gain perspective and see where you’ve been too attached, controlling, or tense. You may be reassessing, observing, and gaining a new vision of a close relationship, publishing project, educational path, or belief system in the months ahead.
The 30th brings a Solar Eclipse in your sign, acting as a powerful slate cleaner. Something new begins, and it can feel much like a new chapter in your life story. You are ready to kick bad habits, start fresh, and present a more self-assured “you” to the world. However, this can emerge from a feeling that you’re very much not in control or in charge, so there can be some discomfort involved. The eclipse receives nice support, suggesting that efforts put forth now lead to successful, rewarding changes. Before this date, focus on review, meditation, and activities that help you purge or process and release negative energy.
Going forward, you’re likely to find yourself at a turning point or experiencing a significant shift. This eclipse is part of a series that began last November and ends in October 2023. You’re in the midst of this robust process in which you’re reinventing yourself in a meaningful way, getting in touch with your personal power and independence. You’re changing how you approach the world, and as you do, you’ll find that you attract different experiences and people into your life. This can be a time of social refreshment and detox from pressured situations and goals. You're feeding your soul and reminding yourself that happiness counts!

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 the 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. Transits don’t 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 horoscopes are divided into three groups or decans, 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, simply read the first decanate regardless of your birthdate.
