April 2025 Love Horoscopes — Retrograde Season Finally Comes To An End
Retrograde season tested relationships, but April 2025 brings the best of love to each zodiac sign.
Photo: Anthony Tran | Design: YourTango April 2025 love horoscopes are special because for the first time this year, all planets will be direct! Mercury turns direct on April 7, followed by the planet of love on April 12 (on the same day as the romantic Full Moon in Libra), helping us take a look at the past while taking a serious snapshot of our future. This is a generally positive and upbeat month for love, giving us a feeling of new and fresh energy. We have the potential to heal some deep-seated issues concerning love or relationships, a welcome break from some of the heaviness we have experienced this year.
Now is the time to embrace romance, love, fantasy, creativity, and dreams. Giving to others comes much easier at this time as our desires turn their focus on meaningful and deep bonds. As Mars re-entered Leo mid-month, we will be more outgoing, optimistic, and geared toward seeking pleasure. Expect to be drawn to attractive clothes, jewelry, and other things that make you stand out in the crowd — Mars in Leo creates a personal need and desire to shine and be recognized. Leo knows fun is a necessary part of life, so expect to spend more time socializing and making the most of the warm spring days coming up.
