April 2022 I Ching Horoscopes

Pisces

Your April trigrams are Sun (Wind) over Sun (Wind) and the hexagram is called Sun – The gentle penetrating wind. The best growth happens organically. Think of how a shoot organically penetrates the earth as it grows. You may not feel things have changed or improved but if you look back and compare you will see you have come further than you think. So don’t loose it all now! However much you feel you need to do something to speed things up trust that things happen in their own time. Don’t see yourself as a victim of circumstance and try to make a change. Holding firm is the best solution to all the problems you face. Better times are coming. All you have to do is let them.

Aries

Your April trigrams are K’un (Earth) over Sun (Wind) and the hexagram is called Shen or Pushing Upwards. You are very confident and used to helping others. Sometimes your help may not produce the results you expected. In April you need to step back and watch and wait for the right time to step in. K’un is asking you to understand other peoples views. Sun is asking you to be gentle with them and yourself. It will be worth it. Patience now will result in an opportunity later – probably something much bigger and better than you expected. Sun rules the intellect and April is a month when you need to engage your brain before operating almost any part of you. Take a deep. Breathe, reflect and remember we are human BEINGS not human doings.

Taurus

Your April trigrams are Ch’ien (Heaven) over K’un (Earth) and the hexagram is called P’i or Standstill. Although you are not comfortable with sudden changes, you may well be in the middle of a situation that seems to have gone on forever and one with no clear way forward. Whether your view is that you are stuck, with no way out or at a potential crossroads with no idea which way to go, this hexagram is giving you the same message. Stop looking at the situation. Step back and take some time for reflection and to get a sense of perspective. You may well need to do some soul searching. You may be clinging on to ideas and values that are no longer helpful or indeed correct. Compromise is nearly always the way forward.

Gemini

Your April trigrams are Ken (Mountain) over K’an (Water) and the hexagram is called Meng or Youthful folly. Your natural airy nature and ability to learn things quickly will be your strength in April. The best learning happens when we have an open mind, recognising we need to learn something. Whether the learning is in relation to yourself or to someone else keep your curiosity front and centre. Both Ken and K’an are saying ‘stand still’ Ken is inviting stillness whilst K’an is warning it will happen even if you don’t accept Ken’s invitation. Meditation is a great tool to help you keep an open mind and to understand the lesson you need to learn. You won’t be able to move on until you do learn the lesson but the stillness provides the best environment to learn it. Don’t give up on others or yourself. You can do this!

Cancer

Your April trigrams are Li (Fire) over Chen (Thunder) and the hexagram is called Shih ho or Biting through. There is a truth that needs to be discovered in April. Whether it is is about yourself or someone else, or maybe both, you will find out. You may have long held suspicions about someone that has made the relationship tricky. Its time to find out if you are angry with them, or yourself. Its time to clear the air. Its time to decide what you really want from the relationship. If you cannot be truly open with them, what is the point? Chen indicates a change of perspective is needed or it will be forced upon you. Li is asking you to look with your inner eye of understanding. Maybe its time for a chat over coffee or a meal.

Leo

Your April trigrams are Li (Fire) over Li (Fire) and the hexagram is called Li the Clinging Fire. You are naturally generous and you need to hold to that in April, taking the generous view of things, people and situations. Li is all about clarity and rules the eyes. You need to look at things in a clear minded, possibly detached way. What you need to cling to is the power of your truth. Your truth is or should be that there is potential for good in everyone and every situation. Stay detached from the bad even if that means the outcome is less good for you. As long as you stand in the power of your truth you will cope and things will work out in the end – even if the end result is unexpected. Remember it’s not all about you. Why you do something is just as important as what and how you do it.

Virgo

Your April trigrams are Tui (Lake) over K’un (Earth) and the hexagram is called Ts’ui or gathering together. This hexagram is warning you to be prepared for trouble when dealing with groups of people – as you often are. You may often be leading or guiding the group and its easy to assume you have done something wrong when there is trouble of any sort. Just because you think things should work out the way you planned does not mean they will. It is too easy to give into worry and self doubt. K’un is reminding you to be receptive to others emotions and also that things can only happen at the right time. You have planted the seeds. You just need to wait to see the results. Any gardener knows you just let nature do its work with no interference. So stand back from the conflict. And remember there is nothing wrong with asking for help.

Libra

Your April trigrams are Tui (Lake) over K’un (Earth) and the hexagram is called Ts’ui or gathering together. April is a month when you need to be decisive not about what you do but about who you are, your principles, your inner truths. In other words you need to gather together all your inner resources. Tui is all about joy and innocence – very childlike qualities and you need to bring a childlike open mind to things and people. K’un is all about patience, being receptive to others while still staying grounded in what you know is right. K’un rules the gut so follow your gut instincts. Tui rules the mouth so be careful what you use yours for especially if you find yourself as a leader. Remember not all confrontations can be avoided and sometimes they are necessary to bring about needed change within a group. Find your inner diplomat and all will be well.

Scorpio

Your April trigrams are Chen (Thunder) over K’un (Earth) and the hexagram is called Yu or Enthusiasm. The Path of least resistance is non resistance. If you read that one thing, person or situation that came to mind, then that is almost certainly what you need to focus on. As a water sign you should find taking the path of least
resistance easy but your fixed quality means you can get so caught up in an idea that you push forward regardless and if things don’t work out its easy to blame others. Chen indicates change is needed and it may mean sudden change imposed on you regardless of what you think is right. K’un is asking you to be calm and patient and to trust that it will all work out even if that means accepting you were wrong about something.

Sagittarius

Your April trigrams are Li (Fire) over K’an (Water) and the hexagram is called Wei Chi or Before completion. Sometimes its all about how you look at things. Getting the correct perspective is important. Putting things into context matters. Li is all about clarity and you need that clarity to understand what is important in a situation. You need to stand still for a bit, take stock, so you can get the perspective to give you that clarity. K’an is warning you about the risk of misunderstanding the true situation if you don’t stop, look and listen with your physical and mental eyes and ears. Sometimes an ‘off the wall’ idea really CAN work. Don’t get impatient and think before you speak. Words once spoken cannot be unheard . Often this sort of apparent chaos is necessary before everything can fall into place.

Capricorn

Your April trigrams are Sun (Wind) over Tui (Lake) and the hexagram is called Chung Fu or Inner Truth. Sometimes standing in your own truth can be very challenging but very worthwhile. Now is not the time to give up on that. In fact the firmer you stand, the more people will be receptive to your ideas. When you hold fast to your ideals, you allow things to happen round you. Sun is reminding you that carrots are generally much better than sticks when trying to get people on board. Tui is all about letting the real you shine out. Don’t be afraid to let people see who you are. Don’t be afraid to speak your truth in the gentlest way possible. But be receptive to the reactions of those around you. Standing in YOUR truth enables you to let others do the same and the results may surprise you.

Aquarius

Your April trigrams are K’an (Water) over Sun (Wind) and the hexagram is called Ching or ‘The Well’. The I Ching is seen as a well that gives those who draw from it truth, nourishment and the tools needed for self development. The key to understanding what the I Ching gives us is an open mind so you know what to do with what you get. Now is NOT the time to refuse to compromise if you are guided down a different path to the one you were expecting. Now is not the time to brood over things that happened in the past. Don’t write off someone because of one bad action. Everyone makes mistakes (even you!) Don’t be afraid to ask for help. The good news is you are on the right path although it may take an unexpected route to get you to your destination. Use this as an opportunity to learn even more than you anticipated.
