Leo Horoscope for April 2022

This is another month, Leo, of surprising, even startling events related to your career and professional life, so that you are perhaps beginning to get the message. Astrology is after all based on recognizing the value of “coincidence” as being no coincidence at all. You have long been transforming in your sense of mission and are increasingly aware of how your own moral compass plays into considerations of what you do, out in the world, and where you feel called to act from your own sense of inner values. It could be therefore that what keeps coming up for you in terms of career offers opportunity that is different than the money or the status. You are other-oriented right now in general, reflecting back to yourself. What you conceive of in connection to others does come back to you in multiplied form. As you get inklings of what your future might hold for you, there is currently a real sense that it engenders attitude that your deepest and most profound principles must be involved in whatever you engage, publicly or privately, to accomplish.


The following was written by Leslie Benson and Henry Seltzer. The usual column by Elodie St-Onge Abut will return.



The month begins astrologically in its very first hours, with a powerful Aries New Moon in your fellow Fire sign, bringing up issues of identity, self-expression, and worldview or other higher mind pursuits. There is also the traditional astrology reckoning that educational or travel initiatives might follow this dynamic New Moon. Further, because the Sun and Moon are closely conjunct Chiron, it is possible that early childhood wounding could arise for healing these issues or that your philosophical attitude toward suffering might be involved.

The New Moon is also in aspect to Uranus in your sector of career and professional life, so that surprises are still in the works for you. Novel career choices might be a factor over the next thirty days of this lunation cycle.

On April 4th and 5th, Mars conjoins Saturn in Aquarius, your opposite sign, slowing things down on the relationship front. You could also find greater commitment from partners at this time.

From April 7th to April 16th, Jupiter conjoins Neptune in Pisces. This is a sweet and optimistic aspect, potentially a little confused or fantasy filled. You might encounter great expectations in intimate relationships or just an impulse to explore inner worlds. Your creative self-expression is more greatly idealized.

On Saturday, April 16th, the Libra Full Moon represents a culmination of your recent initiatives, dreams and schemes regarding beliefs or mental explorations, or higher mind pursuits in general. You are focused now on what you can learn from your recent experiences and your communicative outreach might show it. Intimacy is re-emphasized, and as well the changes that you have been making recently without perhaps really noticing until now. You are also likely filled with a renewed urgency to act upon what you know to be your deepest values.

As the month draws to its close, during its final week, Venus conjuncts first Neptune, then Jupiter, in the sign of Pisces correspond to your sector of intimacy and personal transformation which may feel like a sweet coda to the relationship and transformational events of the April month.

The Solar Eclipse of Saturday, April 30th, is another powerful lunation, an energetic New Moon conjunct Uranus in your sector of career and professional life. This eclipse presages a six-month period of concentration and development in your outer world persona and what you achieve professionally, including a greater emphasis on what you feel to be your most authentic inner stance on values and beliefs.
