After a confusing, stressful month filled with two retrogrades and a chaotic start to the season, there is finally a light at the end of the tunnel. This week’s full moon, known as the Pink Moon, is ushering in a period of clarity and balance. Unfortunately, the moon won’t literally turn pink (although it’s said that at certain times, it may have a pink hue to it), but it will make everything rosier. Think: harmonious and romantic energy.

To get a little more insight into the Pink Moon and what we can expect from it, I spoke to Ivana Naskova, a psychic at Nebula, a spiritual guidance platform. She broke down what changes this moon will bring and how it will affect each zodiac sign specifically. So, to prepare for the Pink Moon coming this week, read on for everything you need to know.

What is the Pink Moon?

This week’s full moon, which occurs in the sign of Libra, is known as the Pink Moon. It’s named after the pink wildflowers, Phlox subulata, that flower with the arrival of springtime. It’s the first full moon of spring 2025 in the Northern Hemisphere.

When is the Pink Moon?

Look to the skies this Saturday, April 12, around 8:22 p.m. EST. For the best view, head to a wide, open area. With the sun setting later and later, this could also be a great time to gather friends for an evening picnic.

Why is the Pink Moon significant?

Since the Pink Moon moves us into the sign of Libra, we can expect the balance and harmony that our lovely Libras are known for. And after the chaos of March and Mercury retrograde, this shift is going to be a breath of fresh air and a much smoother ride. Naskova notes that the Pink Moon encourages us to set healthy boundaries, make thoughtful compromises, and approach challenges with calm and diplomacy.

Most notably, this moon brings a serious sense of romance. Naskova explains that Venus, Libra’s ruling planet, is still in retrograde but moves into Pisces, where it’s exalted—meaning its energy is at its peak. Just hours later, Venus goes direct (meaning it shifts from retrograde, an introspective time, to a more action-oriented time), setting the stage for a seriously romantic atmosphere. The Pink Moon in Libra is considered the most romantic of all full moons, filling the air with sweet, magnetic, loving energy.

Naskova also notes that Venus’s transit might offer romantic reconciliation, closure, or the chance to heal. It helps us release a love story that wasn’t meant to be and opens the door to someone new—someone who’s a better fit for our future.

How the pink moon is going to affect your zodiac sign

Aries

The Pink Moon lands in your house of love, so relationships will take center stage. Old issues may resurface, but you’ll handle them with more clarity and emotional maturity. Take time to communicate with your relationships, actively listen, and express your true feelings. Compromise also comes more easily now, so it’s the perfect time to strengthen your bonds and forge foundations that will last for the long run.

Taurus

taurus

Taurus, it’s time to prioritize your well-being and establish healthy routines that restore balance and stability to your life. Use this full moon to start fresh and let go of what no longer serves you. You’ve been wanting to get back on track for some time, so this is your chance to do so. Plan a wellness retreat or self-care day to reset because you deserve it. And don’t forget to set a healthy routine into motion—one that is realistic but forces you to better yourself, day by day.

Gemini

This Pink Moon illuminates your house of fun and pleasure. Your creativity is back, and you’ll feel inspired and energized, so it’s the perfect moment to create art and do what recharges you. Whether you get social at a community class or just spend a day alone doing something that inspires you, these activities will leave you fulfilled and happy throughout the month.

Cancer

Your home life is under the spotlight this month. Family might need your support, and you could feel a pull between your work and personal life. Remember: Balance is key. Don’t carry what isn’t yours. Find your footing, and make sure to set healthy boundaries to minimize your stress levels. If it feels like you’re carrying too heavy a load, communicate that with your loved ones or your workplace—this isn’t something you need to face alone, and you’ll find support if you just ask.

Leo

Leo

This Full Moon occurs in your house of communication, activating your network. It’s a great time to strengthen both professional and personal relationships. Your charm and diplomacy will take you the distance! Now’s the time to sign up for that networking event or join a community group that will allow you to make new connections and relationships. This month is also a great time to work on your communication skills, especially if there’s an area you feel like you could grow and expand in.

Virgo

virgo

The Pink Moon is in your house of money and shines a light on your finances and self-worth. Focus on improving your financial wellness or knowledge. You might even receive unexpected financial news or gains. Use your money wisely this month, and invest in yourself rather than holding onto material things. Expand your knowledge by taking a finance class or even just looking into ways to improve your knowledge on your own. Take time to reflect on your spending habits and where you could grow.

Libra

You’re the star, Libra; the Pink Moon is in your sign! This is your time for emotional renewal. It might be time to take a look at your inner circle and evaluate which connections are actually serving you. If a relationship ends now, trust that it’s for your highest good; if it continues, it’s meant to last. Don’t make those decisions lightly, but when you do, stand by them. You are evolving, thriving, and maturing, and everyone around you will be able to see that.

Scorpio

The Pink Moon transits your twelfth house of dreams and healing. You may feel extra sensitive, so take time for solitude, rest, and self-care. Take up a healing practice, such as meditation or yoga, and find yourself one with your own body. Rest is necessary for you this month (especially since you might experience extremely vivid dreams), so make that a priority over your next late-night binge-watch. Perfect a night routine that makes you feel fully relaxed, and end your nights on a positive note.

Sagittarius

sagittarius

Are you ready for a social season, Sag? The Pink Moon activates your house of friendships, so expect invites, parties, and possibly some deep conversations. Say yes to what excites you, but also remember that it’s OK to say no when you need a break. This time might also translate to the development of friendships. Strengthen your bonds and have those important conversations about life, love, and values. You might even be at the precipice of a friends-to-lovers romance, so if you aren’t sure if someone’s more than a friend, now’s the time to find out.

Capricorn

capricorn

The Pink Moon transits your tenth house of career and public image. Recognition for your efforts comes now, and clarity around your goals returns. It’s time for that new job opportunity, raise, or position, and you’re ready for it. Be confident in your skills and experience, and others will see it, too. These moves will align with your goals for the future, and your path might become even clearer than before. You’re stepping into your power—own it, girl.

Aquarius

Aquarius

Wanderlust will strike you hard this month. You’re primed to explore, study, or even relocate. Don’t be surprised if you find yourself booking a last-minute trip or considering a major move. This exploration will open your mind to new experiences and ways of thinking. This full moon also brings expansion of your mind and soul, and you might find yourself considering a whole new life path. Find where your inspiration runs most deep, and remember to never stop learning.

Pisces

pisces

This full moon will make you feel emotionally open, but in a good way. Deep conversations, breakthroughs in intimacy, and healing from past wounds are all possible. Be kind to yourself during this time, listen, and communicate to make things go smoothly. Don’t forget to be honest with yourself and others about your true emotions. Let go of old wounds and step into emotional empowerment. This growth will bring you true happiness this month.
