The full moon in April is often referred to as the pink moon because of the pink flowers that bloom in North America during this season.

Is it actually pink? No. But the energy surrounding this lunation is still potent, thanks to the fierce and formidable nature of the sign that it’s in: Scorpio.

How can you see April 2024’s full moon?

April’s full moon rises on April 23 at 7:49 p.m. ET and will appear full for about three days.

What is the astrological meaning of April 2024’s full moon?

Full moons are thought to illuminate hidden matters, and this one is no different. It’ll bring secrets, frustrations, emotions and desires out of the dark and into the light.

Scorpio full moons are especially known for their fervor and intensity. Since the full moon squares Pluto in Aquarius, the contemporary planetary ruler of Scorpio, it’s reasonable to think these emotions will be amplified.

Expect impulsive outbursts, emotional upheavals and sudden changes of the mind and heart. Pluto aims to reconstruct systems and make them more robust after they’re rebuilt, so we may witness many things falling apart, only to be reassembled in a more precise way.

“This will reveal to us how our personal transformation can be funneled towards promoting change within the collective. It will also illuminate what we truly need in order to feel secure,” astrologer Evan Nathaniel Grim says.

We are still in Mercury retrograde in Aries, which ends on April 25. We might be prone to miscommunication, so we need to think before reacting and listen before we make up our minds.

The effects of the Jupiter and Uranus conjunction in Taurus that occurred on April 20 are still ongoing.
