April 2020 I Ching Horoscopes

Pisces
Your April trigrams are K’un over K’un. The hexagram is also called K’un which is all about being receptive. ‘Bear with everything as the earth bears with all that live on it’. This hexagram is pure yin…feminine nurturing energy . Almost totally passive. And its message is that sometimes you just have to put up with things. Resist the temptation to try and do things, or change things. This is one time when just trusting things will work out is the best option. You may have misplaced your trust in the past. But history does not always repeat itself. Practising mindfulness may be helpful.

Aries
Your April trigrams are K’an over Ken and the hexagram is called Chien —Obstruction. K’an is about hidden dangers, Ken is about stillness and sometimes indicates stubbornness. You are very determined but there is a thin line between being determined and being stubborn. April is a month when you do not want to cross that line. You like to lead but so did Lord Cardigan.. and the charge of the Light brigade did not end well! Step back, take a wider perspective on things, and cultivate patience. It will pay dividends.

Taurus
Your April Trigrams are Tui over Ken and the hexagram is called Hsien or Influence. Ken is about stillness, introspection……maybe even stubbornness? Tui rules the mouth and speech. Something or someone is going to become an irritation. You need to deal with it…but think before you speak. Don’t allow this minor irritation to dominate and influence your life. You may dislike change but sometimes change is necessary. Remember extreme pressure turns coal into diamonds. Not all change is bad.

Gemini
Your April Trigrams are Ken over Chien and the hexagram is called Ta Ch’u which translates as ‘the taming power of the great’. If people are trying to unbalance you, it is being done out of envy for your strength. Your motto needs to be ‘hold still, hold firm, hold together’. Ken is about stillness – Chien rules head as the source of wisdom. But you can only hear that wisdom if you are still. You can then use your natural adaptability to get the right perspective on the situation. A little reflection may help you to chose the right words.

Cancer
Your April Trigrams are Ch’ien over Ch’ien. The hexagram is also Ch’ien the creative and it is pure yang energy. Creative energies are moving round you. Now is not the time to give in to pessimism. You need to stick at it, but not force things. The ‘I’ in ‘I Ching’ can be interpreted as ‘easy’ and it tells you that letting things happen is the best option….but guard against arrogantly assuming you can see how it will turn out. The answer may surprise you. Resist the temptation to try to manipulate others.

Leo
Your April trigrams are K’an over Tui and the hexagram is called Chieh or limitation. These are both regarded as water trigrams which may not sit well with your fiery sign. K’an represents a hidden danger often related to relationships with those round you. Tui represents joy but also rules over the mouth and speech. You may think you know what someone needs….but the wrong thing said at the wrong time could be a problem. A simple ‘hi how are you’ can achieve a lot if you give them time to really answer.

Virgo
Your April Trigrams are Ch’ien over Ch’ien and the hexagram is called Ch’ien – known as the Creative. Ch’ien is pure yang – very masculine. And while it is about the creative principle at work it is also about getting a cosmic view point. Your tendency to pay attention to small details could be counterproductive causing you to worry. Ch’ien rules over courage. Have the courage to ask for the help you you need. Ch’ien also rules the head and wisdom. Trust that inner wisdom and be prepared to take a wide perspective on how things will work out.

Libra
Your April Trigrams are Li over Sun and the hexagram is called Ting ..The cauldron. It is re-assurance that you are being guided even though have to accept the situation you are in. Li is called the clinging fire and it represents clarity . Sun represents softness and it rules over reflection. And reflection is something you may find useful in April. Your desire to be diplomatic and co-operative is good but but you do need to confront things. Some reflection will help you chose the best words to make your point with clarity. You are being called on to guide others with your wisdom . Trust you can do it.

Scorpio
Your April trigrams are K’an over K’un and the hexagram is called Pi or holding together. K’an represents hidden danger and also constriction. K’un represents receptiveness, emotion and humility. You need to let your resourceful side have full reign…along with that slight stubbornness! You may find an unexpected challenge causing you to worry. Hold to what you know is right, but be open to help and guidance that is available to you. Don’t assume you know what the best solution is….ask others opinions.. The best solution may not be the ideal one for you…but you will cope better than you think.

Sagittarius
Your April trigrams are Li over Chen and the hexagram is called Shih ho which means biting through. There is a truth you need to find and something is preventing you. You need to bite through’ the obstacle…which may be your impatience. Li rules over wisdom and those who guide others. It also rules over speech. Chen indicates a state of turbulence and communication. Someone is trying to help you..but you may not be listening to what they have to say. You need to step back, maybe try to see things from a different perspective…and then listen. Let your generous side show through.

Capricorn
Your April trigrams are Ken over Tui and the hexagram is called Sun or decrease. What needs to decrease is your feelings towards things you are very attached to. You are a natural leader but now is not the time to hold on to the feeling that you have all the answers. Ken is about stillness maybe even stubbornness… Tui is about innocence and immaturity. The phrase that comes to mind is ‘out of the mouth of babes comes forth wisdom’. Someone close to you is saying something you really need to hear . But you do not see them as the sort of person you can learn from. Be still, like a mountain, and listen. It will pay dividends.

Aquarius
Your April trigrams are Tui over Chen. The hexagram is called Sui or following and what you need to follow is your sense of what is essential, just and correct.. Tui is about innocence and joy. Chen is about taking the initiative – something that is natural to you as you like to help others. But make sure that help is given with sincerity and love. And remember the solution that works for you may not work for other people. Chen is also about turbulence and sometimes that is a chance to get a different perspective. Keep an open mind about what you need and don’t forget…its totally OK to have some fun!
