April Birthdays
In astrology, those born between April 1–20
are Pisces. Fish are compassionate, gentle,
intuitive, and artistic. Known for their wisdom,
Pisces are not judgmental and are very
forgiving. They never hesitate to put others’
needs before their own. Those born between
April 21–31 are Rams of Aries. As the first
sign of the zodiac, Aries are energetic and
assertive initiators. With bravery, zeal, and
speed, they jump head first into life, confident
that they can navigate any challenges.
