April isn’t just about rain showers and new tax years (thankfully!). It’s also about transitioning from winter to spring. This year, that feels especially challenging. So, what’s required is some tender, loving self-care. Grab a yoga mat and start the day with a few sun salutations – exercise, even done solo, is great for mental health. So is writing. Why not journal some positive affirmations? You’ll be amazed by the power they have. And never underestimate the small joy of new make-up! Read on for your horoscope for the month, from Britain’s coolest astrologer, Carolyne Faulkner.

A R I E S - 20 Mar – 18 April
This is your month to shine and 2020 offers a welcome break from the shifting sands of past years. Uranus recently left your sign, after a seven-year residency. This probably caused unpredictable changes and pressure. This was to encourage growth and to push you toward achieving your best self. You may now build a solid structure within frameworks that will offer you the chance to reach dizzying heights. Your ruler Mars connects with Aquarius for the first time in several years, which evokes fun, even if it’s from the safety of your own home.
