These star signs will feel the Aries New Moon the most this April

If things have been feeling more intense for you lately (whether good or bad), it might be down to the Aries New Moon.

We've seen more of the moon than ever before thanks to the Artemis II mission, and it's the star of the show again with the Aries New Moon this week, which rises this Friday, April 17.

It's the first new moon of spring, but not only that, there's also the Lyrid meteor shower to keep an eye out for, too.

According to the BBC, the meteor shower will start from tonight, April 16, but will peak on April 22.

There will be an average of 10 to 15 meteors an hour, but at peak points, there might be up to 100 per hour streaking across the sky.

Just weeks after the Pink Moon might have left you feeling groggy after a bad night's sleep, this is a new moon which will allow us to explore our dreams and hopes through new eyes, leading us to evolve, and (hopefully!) thrive.

Speaking on behalf of CasinoHawks, astrology expert Inbaal Honigman reveals that these are the three signs who will be most strongly influenced by the Aries new moon.

Cancer

It's a lucky one for Cancer (Tyla)

Inbaal revealed that this sign can be particularly sensitive to a new moon: "The Moon is the ruler of the sign of Cancer, which is why new moons and full moons are felt strongly in the Cancerian’s life."

"Aries is a go-getter sign, and it puts a bit of wind in the sails of easy going Cancer," she added.

"This moon will help you set goals and just go for it and smash those goals."

Lucky Cancer!

Taurus

Love is in the air for Taurus (Tyla)

If you're looking for love, this could be just the thing you need, according to Inbaal: "The planet Venus is in Taurus on that date, so this planet of love brings new romantic beginnings to the homebody sign of Taurus."

If you've been hoping true love will just appear in your living room - now might just be your lucky time! "You may not even need to leave the house in order for the new love to materialise," the expert added.

"Venus happens to be the ruling planet of Taurus, making this whole situation feel very natural and practically inevitable. New love arrives whether or not you’re ready."

Aries

It should come as no surprise that Aries will feel the heat (Tyla)

It wouldn't be an Aries new moon without this sign being impacted, said the expert: "Of course the new moon in Aries will impact Aries-born people the most, because both the sun and the moon are in Aries."

It seems like it's a jam-packed time of year, astrologically: "In addition, Mercury, Mars, Saturn and Neptune are in Aries on that date, so Aries will feel like a lot is going on."

Looking for a new job or to get ahead at work? Now's the optimum time: "Scheduling important calls such as interviews and collaboration opportunities would work well on that date."
