April 2026
ARIES (March 21 – April 19)
The month is your birthday month. Happy birthday. Remember to send a special gift to your parents. They were the ones to give you the rebirth and they deserve thanks. If they have passed away then say prayers for their happiness in whatever future rebirth they have taken. The month has the Sun, Neptune, and Saturn running in Aries in the first week. That means a lot of energy with a nice quality of spiritual insight. Soon after Mars and Mercury will join them, giving you more energy and understanding. Go slowly in the first week by establishing a good motivation and then enjoy yourself in the last weeks with all the energy of Mars.
Aries Buddhists love to be motivators. Spend some time on your motivation, especially with Neptune giving you a spiritual perspective. Then in remaining weeks be open and friendly to everyone. You have great astrology in those last weeks.
TAURUS (April 20 May 20)
This month is your birthday month. Happy birthday. Remember to send a special gift to your parents. They were the ones to give you the rebirth and they deserve thanks. If they have passed away, then say prayers for their happiness in whatever future rebirth they have taken. This month things are still very energetic. The reason is Venus and Uranus are stimulating you. The Sun enters you sign come the last 10 days, thus increasing all that energy. The Sun will be squared by Pluto though for the last week, so although you want to do a lot, be careful if things do not progress quickly. You are vulnerable to being grumpy.
Taurus Buddhists love to be grounded and practical. You can do anything positive this month that you like. There are no problems except the ones you make for yourself by not being mindful.
GEMINI (May 21 – June 20)
This month starts with not many influences. What is beneficial is the Sun, Saturn and Neptune are well aspected to your Sun sign. Therefore, although there are no major aspects of influence there are secondary ones that help you along the way. Your communication skills and energy will increase in the second week. The reason is Mars and Mercury join the others giving you good supportive energy. Remember, mindfulness protects you from all influences, but in this case you have only good blessings from astrology.

CANCER (June 21 – July 22)
This month you must be careful of being too excited. Jupiter is in Cancer but with squared aspects by the Sun, Mars and Mercury.

If you have good intentions things should be fine. Just be mindful of what you are about to start and make sure it is virtuous.

This month your deep feelings are playing a role in your decisions. This means taking into consideration your feelings about what you do is important. Pluto sits in opposition to Leo, and you may feel there are things happening, but you can’t put your finger on what it is. This is caused by Venus briefly being squared to Pluto. It only lasts in the first days of April, and then Saturn and Neptune give you good energy. Motivate carefully as you may find things work out well. Guru Yoga meditations are a good choice this month.
Leo Buddhists like to be motivators. This month you sit with doubts for a week before things come clear. What becomes clear for you after that is a definite feeling you want to follow, so be skillful how you pursue it.
