Pink Moon: Full Moon for April 2024
Prepare for the Full Pink Moon!
You can see the full Moon in April on Tuesday, April 23. It reaches its brightest point at 7:49 P.M. Learn why we traditionally call it the “Pink Moon” and some fascinating facts and folklore.
When to See the Full Moon in April 2024
Venture outside on Tuesday, April 23, to catch a glimpse of April’s full Pink Moon. This full Moon reaches peak illumination at 7:49 p.m. Eastern Time.
For the best view of this lovely spring Moon, find an open area and watch as the Moon rises just above the horizon. At this point, it will appear its biggest and take on a golden hue! (Find local Moon rise and set times here.)
Why Is It Called the Pink Moon?
The full Moon names used by The Old Farmer’s Almanac come from various sources, including Native American, Colonial American, and European sources. Traditionally, each full Moon name was applied to the entire lunar month in which it occurred, not only to the full Moon.
Although we wish the name “Pink Moon” had to do with the color of the Moon, the reality is not quite as mystical or awe-inspiring. In truth, April’s full Moon often corresponded with the early springtime blooms of a certain wildflower native to eastern North America: Phlox subulata—commonly called creeping phlox or moss phlox—which also went by the name “moss pink.”
Thanks to this seasonal association, this full Moon came to be called the “Pink” Moon!
Alternative April Moon Names
In April, Moon names reference spring abound!
Breaking Ice Moon (Algonquin) and Moon When the Streams Are Again Navigable (Dakota) reference the melting ice and increased mobility of the early spring season.
Budding Moon of Plants and Shrubs (Tlingit) and Moon of the Red Grass Appearing (Oglala) speak to the plant growth that will soon kick into high gear.
Other names refer to the reappearance of certain animals, including Moon When the Ducks Come Back (Lakota), Moon When the Geese Lay Eggs (Dakota), and Frog Moon (Cree).
Along the same vein, Sucker Moon (Anishinaabe) notes the time to harvest sucker fish, which return to streams or lake shallows to spawn. According to legend, now is the time when this fish comes back from the spirit world to purify bodies of water and the creatures living in them. (This name may also be applied to the February Moon to honor the sacrifice of the sucker fish to feed the Anishinaabe peoples, traditionally helping them to survive the winter.)

April Full Pink Moon Manifestations
Write Down Your Manifestations
Putting your manifestations and intentions in writing is always a good idea, especially during a full moon. When manifesting, make sure to write about the things you’re looking for in your new life in the present tense, as if you already have them. If you’re manifesting love, Samay recommends jotting down all the of qualities that you are looking for in your next partner on a piece of paper. Then, hold the paper “up to the light of the Full Moon and visualize yourself with your ideal partner,” the astrologer says.
When you’re done, don’t forget to fold the note and store it under your pillow. “Sleep on it for the night and trust that the universe will bring you the next soulmate,” says Samay.
Express Gratitude
Gratitude is one of the key ways to use the law of attraction, so if you’re trying to manifest something into your life, expressing gratitude for the blessings in your life is a must. To do this, Samay suggests making a list of the people who have “contributed to your success and well-being” by listing out everything they’ve done to help you, as well as the things you admire the most about them.
“During the full moon, take a moment to read the list and express gratitude for each person on it,” shares Samay. Then, to keep the good vibes coming, “visualize yourself receiving more recognition and support from the people who are about to enter your life.”
Let Go Of Negativity
It’s easier said than done, but if there were ever a time to remove the people and habits in your life that are holding you back, it would be now. Even if you can’t find anything specific worth eliminating, Samay recommends using this time to “let go of any negative thoughts or emotions that are causing you stress.”
“During the Full Moon, light a candle and meditate on the feeling of lightness and clarity that comes with letting go,” Samay tells Bustle. “Invite your spirit guides to cleanse and purify your magnetic field to bring in balance and harmony. Envision yourself feeling calm and balanced as you move forward.”
The full moon shouldn’t just be an emotional release — it can be a material one, too. “Declutter[ing] is one of the best ways to get rid of any physical or emotional clutter that is weighing you down,” Samay explains. To make room for the manifestations coming into your life, Samay proposes giving your home a complete overhaul by clearing out your space and “organizing your belongings.”

Moon Alert
Avoid shopping or making important decisions after 7 PM EDT today (4 PM PDT). The Moon is in Libra.
Aries (March 21-April 19)
Avoid power plays about money or something to do with your possessions or something that you own. Or perhaps you’ll face power plays related to inheritances, or getting your share of something, or issues to do with shared property. Tomorrow’s Full Moon will bring this to a head.
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
Today you might feel a buildup of energy before tomorrow’s Full Moon, which takes place opposite your sign. (A doozy.) This means you will likely feel an increasing tension when dealing with partners and close friends, as well as bosses and authority figures. Steady as she goes.
Gemini (May 21-June 20)
Fortunately, relations with friends and groups have been friendly lately because Venus is in this part of your chart. In fact, you’ve been seeing people from your past, which is a fun way to catch up on old gossip and history. Tread carefully today because tension is building up before tomorrow’s Full Moon.
Cancer (June 21-July 22)
Be patient with friends or members of groups today because everyone can feel the tension building up today before tomorrow’s Full Moon, which is a particularly stressful Full Moon. (Ouch.) Naturally, because the Moon is your ruler, you will feel this. Keep things light. Be courteous.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)
Fasten your seatbelt because today and tomorrow are a bit rough because tomorrow’s Full Moon is really at odds with your sign. This is why today, you might feel tension building up with bosses, parents, family members, partners and close friends. Yikes. Run away!
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
Life has been challenging lately because your ruler Mercury has been retrograde. Fortunately, on Thursday, Mercury stops being retrograde, which will improve things considerably for you. Meanwhile, avoid heated discussions and power plays about politics and religion. Stay chill.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
You begin this week with some strain about money, earnings, cash flow, shared property and dealing with your kids or the cost of social occasions and vacations. All of this is in the mix and it’s a crunchy mix. Fear not after the Full Moon peaks tomorrow; by Wednesday, things will get easier.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
No doubt you feel a bit of stress today because tomorrow the Full Moon is in your sign. This means that even today, you will start to feel a buildup of some tension dealing with partners and close friends, and possibly family members as well. You’re caught between a rock and a hard place.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
Avoid power struggles today, which might crop up, especially with people at work or issues about a parent, or even matters that are related to your health. People are touchy today! That’s because there’s a heavy-duty Full Moon happening tomorrow. (This is why the tension is already palpable today.)
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
Romantic partners must be patient with each other today and tomorrow. Likewise, parents should be patient with their kids, especially about financial matters, because people are on edge today due to the tension building up before tomorrow’s Full Moon. Easy does it.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
Taurus, Leo, Scorpio and Aquarius will feel the tension of tomorrow’s Full Moon the most. In fact, you will feel this tension building up today. Your best recourse is to be patient with yourself and others. Avoid arguments with parents and bosses. Stay friendly and be courteous.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)
Pay attention to everything you say and do today because tension associated with tomorrow’s Full Moon could lead to an accident-prone situation for your sign. This could happen simply because you’re emotional or distracted for some reason.
If Your Birthday Is Today
Actress Cassidy Freeman (1982) shares your birthday today. You admire quality – a great job, an excellent car or quality craftsmanship. You’re warm and friendly; plus you inspire others. Take time this year to reflect or renew your spiritual beliefs or explore practices such as meditation, prayer or ideas that promote a better understanding of who you are.
Aries (March 21-April 19)
You are expansive in a lot of areas in your life but at the same time you don’t seem to maintain a straight or normal line in these well wanted developments of yours.
What you need to understand is that, the more you are trying to skip stages and reach conclusions faster than you should, the more difficult it’s going to be.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)
Eloquence is going to be your main weapon today but at the same time there might be some things you are overlooking so I would advise you to stick closer to someone who is careful about details.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)
You are going to have to be very careful with the way you are planning your activities this Monday, especially those in which you are somewhat connected to others.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)
The word of advice for you today would be not to commit to anything you aren’t really sure about and to censor as much as you can from those controlling tendencies you sometimes have.
There might be some things you can fix or ameliorate but there are also many others that are independent of your will and that you can’t program.
You can also read this special Leo Daily Horoscope.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
You need to get going and start working for once or otherwise all those prospects you are so happily waiting for are going to make themselves delayed even more than they already are or even more than you would like them to.
Also, make sure you don’t promise something that you cannot deliver because it will really impact your reputation.
You can also read this special Virgo Daily Horoscope.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
This Monday is going to bring you a totally different array of feelings to experience and for some natives even things are going to go as far as to change their opinions on several things or determine them to take actions they never thought they would.
This might also be a great day to communicate openly and show exactly what you want.
You can also read this special Libra Daily Horoscope.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
The current disposition is offering you a lot of fun occasions to relax but you will still have to make room in your life for them.
In regard to your job, you either postpone a series of tasks and assume the risk of them catching up with you eventually or you gather all your focus and get over with them a lot faster than you would in general.
You can also read this special Scorpio Daily Horoscope.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
It seems that this Monday is going to require a lot of adaptability from you as some sort of changing circumstances are going to hit you right where it hurts you more.
So have some time with yourself and think of the areas in your life that are sensible for you at the moment and think of what defines stability in them so you can be somewhat prepared for what is next.
You can also read this special Sagittarius Daily Horoscope.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
Dreams and a lot of things that you considered long buried in your mind and soul are going to be somewhat surfaced today and a whole surge of emotions is going to take hold of you.
You can try to avoid them and risk being absent minded all day or you can embrace them, make this some sort of nostalgic day and remember what needs to be remembered.
You can also read this special Capricorn Daily Horoscope.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
This is going to be a tricky disposition to navigate for you as it seems some of your fears might come true or at least some sort of secret or something you’ve been trying to keep hidden threatens to surface.
It is entirely up to you whether you spend your day worrying incessantly or try to accept that those are still things that represent you and accept them.
You can also read this special Aquarius Daily Horoscope.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)
It’s going to be a bit of a difficult day today with all the tasks you might have to solve but also with your mind wondering somewhere else.
This is a day of love for some natives but also a day of storm and released passion for others so everyone will probably feel how charged the atmosphere is and feel as if they need to express themselves.

King of Cups – Minor Arcana Court Card
Emotional events
A regal, older man stands before a throne made of shell. He wears a crown with pearls on the spiky tips. In one he holds a chalice trimmed with scallop shells. His other hand lies wrapped around the throne. The throne stands on a beach, strewn with shells, starfish, and driftwood. The King of Cups has moved to a state of being where he is no longer ruled by the tides of emotion. He has earned his throne, which represents security and stability in the mist of emotions (the water of the sea). His crown with pearls symbolizes spiritual enlightenment found in the sacred center of every human, the discovery of which enabled him to escape the emotional extremes of life. The shells (continuing life from one cycle to another) and the starfish (pentacle of protection) have come from the sea, which is the cauldron of creation and rebirth. Through the King’s companionship with the Water dragon he has learned how to use emotional energy in a more positive way.
Divinatory Meaning: This card represents a loving and caring masculine influence. There is a possiblity of a journey across water. You may experience an episode of up and down emotions.

Swan
Spiritually, swans are symbols of beauty, love, trust, loyalty, grace, and intuition. A swan is believed to embody love and elegance, being the perfect muse for artists and musicians alike. Thus, the spiritual implication of seeing a swan is considered a good omen.
Swans are deeply connected to water, symbolizing the traits of this element, such as fluidity, depth of emotions, and female intuition. Their long necks represent the ability to look into the future and teach us how to detangle confused emotions. The swan teaches you to follow the flow of your life and follow your instincts.

The Self
Remain modest – that is the right of the oracle. Be in the world, but not from the world. Stay receptive to impulses, that come out of the divine in the inner and outer sphere. Seek to live the usual life in an unusual manner.

Beith/Beth
Beith, or Beth, corresponds to the letter B in the alphabet, and is associated with the Birch tree. When this symbol is used, it is representative of new beginnings, change, release, and rebirth. In some traditions, it also has connections with purification.
Birch trees are hardy. They’ll grow just about anywhere, including on bare soil. Because they tend to grow in clusters, what may be just one or two seedlings now can be practically an entire forest in a few decades. In addition to being a sturdy sort of tree, the Birch is useful. In days gone by, it was used for infants’ cradles, and is still harvested today to make cabinets and furniture.
From a magical perspective, there are a number of uses for Birch. The branches are traditionally incorporated into the construction of a besom, and are used for the bristles. Use the white outer bark in ritual in place of paper or parchment–just be sure you only harvest the bark from a fallen Birch tree, not a living one. Ancient herbalists discovered that various parts of this tree can be used for medicinal purposes. Bark was once brewed into a tea to fight fevers, and the leaves were used alternately as a laxative and a diuretic, depending on how they were prepared.
Beith Correspondences
Mundane Aspects: When this symbol appears, it means it’s time to get rid of all those negative influences you’ve been carrying around with you. Figure out what things are bad in your life, which relationships are toxic, and find a way to leave them behind. Instead of being dragged down by the negative, focus on the positive things you have in your life, the blessings and abundance. Use these things as a focus, rather than the harmful or damaging ones.
Magical Aspects: Consider the property of renewal and rebirth, as demonstrated by the Birch. Use this as a tool for spiritual and emotional regrowth, and developing your own ability to regenerate where there has been emptiness or devastation.

Success if you stay on course.
You may cross to the far shore.

If you have begrudged, forgive.
If you have torn down, repair.

Nine
Nine, as one of the core numerological numbers, implies idealism turned into the main principle of life. Figuratively speaking, you do not pretend to understand the purpose of the Creator, but hope that things are arranged reasonably and end well. Everything else is derived from this. You are kind as you don’t feel entitled to increase the amount of evil in the world. You display exceptional intuition and insight because you are afraid of accidentally causing someone harm or doing someone wrong. You love people because you think this is the only opportunity to make them happy.
The main positive qualities of the Nine are good will to all people without exception, the ability to be sympathetic and to show mercy to those who need it.
Moreover, you have natural charm, the ability to awaken good feelings. Apparently, this quality is granted to you as an additional tool for the promotion of your views of life.
