April New Moon Solar Eclipse: Aries/Taurus

April's new moon is in Aries/Taurus (depending on your time zone) today, exact at 11:15 PM CT, with a solar eclipse in the same sign at 11:12 PM CT. 

Embrace this new beginning with the energy of both signs. Before acting on a strong impulse, first list the practical steps you'll take toward the outcome, then follow through on it. Depending on your personal astrological influences, you may realize your connection to a group, institution, or system no longer aligns with your heart. 

A good time to start a new daily practice such as walking with an empowering music playlist because this is the first of a set of eclipses that will aid prioritizing self-care and independence. Anything you do for yourself or your personal goals at this time will have a long-term impact. Embrace the new "courageous you" with kindness toward yourself and others.
