By Jeff JawerProvided by Tarot.comYour love life should heat up this month, Aries. Venus, the planet of amour, enters your sign on April 5 to intensify your emotions and shift you into a faster-paced personal life. A tendency toward impulsiveness could lead to an awkward moment or two, especially with the New Moon in your sign on the 5th adding even more emotional fuel to the fire. Patience -- not exactly your strong suit -- will be tested as you want what you want now and not a minute later. This can challenge those closest to you who aren't able to move at lightning speed. A snag can arise as Venus crosses paths with dangerous Pluto on April 6 when you're bound to stir up buried feelings. Small differences of opinion could grow into a destructive emotional firestorm that threatens a relationship.
If you're single, feelings may go to extremes. You could become jealous or obsessed with someone or you might be so down on love that you're ready to quit the game forever. Fortunately, this will pass, but the point is for you to examine your desires more deeply so that you can clarify your needs and what you're willing to do to get them met. The Full Moon on April 20 falls in your 8th House of Intimacy, which ramps up the pressure to get closer. If you're feeling confined by your partner, this could cause a problem. But if you're seeking a deeper connection with someone, this can give you the impetus to try harder to make this happen.
