The news you’ve been waiting for is finally coming, thanks to your weekly horoscope for April 6 to April 12, 2025. You’re feeling optimistic at the start of the week when the sun in Aries links up with Jupiter in Gemini on April 6. This energy is great for taking up space and standing out! You’re making progress on your goals, and you could very likely have something exciting to celebrate or a fun event to attend. There’s an extra hint of sweetness on the same day, April 6, when Venus retrograde in Pisces connects with Mars in Cancer. This brings tenderness and compassion to all of your relationships, but can also reignite the spark in your romantic connections, too. Interactions with others go smoothly, and you’re also feeling creatively inspired.
You’re ready to either stay or go when Venus retrograde in Pisces meets with Saturn in Pisces on April 7. This will help you discuss the future and commitments with a mature perspective, but it also might help you recognize which relationships you’ve outgrown, and reconsider any boundaries you might want to set in others. This energy could coincide with signing a contract or a job or commitment ending, as well. Fortunately, Mercury retrograde in Pisces ends on the same day, April 7, and you’re ready to make an important decision or have an emotional conversation! Miscommunication begins to clear up.

Under this full moon, the sun in Aries meets with “wounded healer” Chiron in Aries at the same point in the sky. Your healing journey is on full display. You might feel more sensitive or triggered under these skies, but being vulnerable and speaking your truth can be cathartic. You could also learn information or make a decision regarding your past that feels pivotal.
Also on April 12, Venus retrograde in Pisces ends, bringing some relief to your relationships. Tensions could begin to subside, and you’re feeling ready to make a decision about the most important connections in your life.
