So last night I was scrolling through my phone feeling kinda bored when I saw a notification about Taurus season starting soon. Got me thinking – why not try making my own April 2025 horoscope? I mean, those generic ones online always feel like they’re written by some robot. I’m a proper Taurus sun with Virgo moon since 1987, who better to do this?
What I grabbed first
- My dusty astrology books from that phase in college when I thought I’d become a psychic
- Coffee obviously – Taurus needs fuel
- 2025 astrological calendar printout
- Seriously outdated star chart app on my tablet that kept crashing
Started by looking at key dates in April 2025. Saturn’s hanging out in Pisces – great for us earthy Tauruses apparently. Jupiter’s doing a weird retrograde dance in Gemini which might mess with communication. Scribbled all this down on sticky notes til my desk looked like a rainbow exploded.
The messy part
Okay here’s where it got complicated. Trying to calculate how Venus in Aries would affect us love-wise made my head spin. Remembered this astrologer I follow said to focus on houses. Checked my birth chart – my 7th house is empty but Saturn’s transiting there. Big realization: Tauruses might actually enjoy solitude in relationships next April? Wild thought for us romance-loving bulls.
Kept flipping between books getting more confused by the minute. That’s when I decided to cheat a little – called up Karen from my yoga group who reads tarot cards. She said April’s full moon in Scorpio (exactly opposite our sign) means financial secrets coming to light. Made a note: “Warn Taureans about dodgy investments”.
Putting it together
Took all my scribbles and sat down with another coffee (third one, don’t judge). Wrote the predictions in plain English no fancy jargon:
- Career: That project you’ve been stuck on? April 19th is your magic date when Mars gives you that stubborn Taurus energy to push through
- Health: Mercury retrograde warning – double-check prescriptions around April 7th
- Love: Single Tauruses might trip over their future partner literally (blame those clumsy Taurus-influenced Jupiter vibes)
Final touch – added some personal advice about planting flowers during the new moon. Because honestly, what makes a Taurus happier than digging in actual dirt?
What I learned
Took me nearly five hours to make one month’s predictions. No wonder those free horoscope sites half-ass it. But seeing my finished product felt damn good even if my brain was fried. Maybe I’ll do another month if people actually read this thing. Or maybe I’ll just go enjoy some chocolate cake – priorities right?
