It's a triple-layered day of fools, with the full moon giving a pinky promise of renewal. April Fool's Day plays with illusion and perception, reminding us that things aren't always as they seem. Passover honors the courage to step into freedom. Under the Pink Moon, these themes weave beautifully: awakening, questioning appearances and stepping into liberation.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). It's wonderful to be foolish about starting things because beginnings rarely arrive with perfect timing or certainty. Many worthwhile ventures begin simply because someone decided the idea deserved a chance to exist in the world. You also have follow-through, and it's gold.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). It's wonderful to be foolish about delight because the smallest pleasures rarely announce themselves as important. A shared joke, an unexpected kindness — these are the moments that blossom into truly magical experiences and bonds.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). It's wonderful to be foolish about starting things because beginnings rarely arrive with perfect timing or certainty. Many worthwhile ventures begin simply because someone decided the idea deserved a chance to exist in the world. You also have follow-through, and it's gold.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). It's wonderful to be foolish about delight because the smallest pleasures rarely announce themselves as important. A shared joke, an unexpected kindness — these are the moments that blossom into truly magical experiences and bonds.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). It's wonderful to be foolish about friendship because true companions are not chosen by spreadsheets of compatibility. They arrive through shared laughter, odd timing and a series of small moments that slowly prove someone belongs in your circle.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). It's wonderful to be foolish with encouragement because a few well-placed words can change the direction of someone's day or even their life. People often rise to expectations they never knew someone had for them.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). It's wonderful to be foolish when investing in your own creativity because seeing things that don't exist and then building them to match your vision is among the highest privileges of human experience. You'll create something that helps others.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). It's wonderful to be foolish about hope because optimism has a practical magic. When people believe good outcomes are possible, they attempt things others would never try, and those attempts often create the very opportunities they imagined.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). It's wonderful to be foolish in love because intense infatuation doesn't happen all that often in a typical lifetime. For you, being foolish in love includes radical honesty, whimsical plans and giving much more than you intend to.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). It's wonderful to be foolish with curiosity about strangers because genuine interest is magnetic. People open up, stories appear, and suddenly, you're known as someone who makes every room feel a little more alive.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). It's wonderful to be foolish about adventure because the best stories rarely begin with careful planning. They begin with curiosity, a wrong turn, an open afternoon and the willingness to follow a hunch just to see where it leads.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). It's wonderful to be foolish about believing in people because humans often rise to the level of the trust placed in them. The one who believes first has vision and leadership and can be the catalyst for remarkable effort and loyalty.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). It's wonderful to be foolish with your generous spirit because it changes the world. Some people would never get a chance if it weren't for those who gave when they didn't have to, when it hurt or when they knew they'd never be repaid.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). It's wonderful to be foolish about learning because the mind grows strongest when it wanders into subjects it may never master. Curiosity that serves no obvious purpose often becomes the doorway to what the world needs.

TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (April 1). Welcome to your Year of Inspired Mischief, when wit, originality and a dash of rebellion improve nearly every situation. You'll discover that the playful approach often brings the most practical rewards. More highlights: A clever investment or business idea delivers satisfying profits. Relationships sparkle through humor, surprises, grand gestures and fresh scenes. You'll host a legendary gathering. Gemini and Leo adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 3, 25, 37, 10 and 6.
