This month’s Full Pink Moon beams into peace-seeking, partnership-focussed Libra in the early hours of 2 April (3.11 am in the UK), making 1 April the best night to make some lunar magic.

A full moon in Libra brings romantic, peaceful, healing energy our way, and this one is no exception. There’s a positive energy to this full moon that urges us to focus in on the people who make a difference to our lives. And, yes, that might mean a focus on love, romance and coupling up (all very Libra themes) but it could equally mean a focus on friendship, business connections, champions and mentors. If you’re ready to call in someone who can help take your life to the next level, this is the full moon for you.

This is also a moon that invites us to seek a balance between pleasing others and pleasing ourselves. You might feel happy when everyone around you is happy, but it’s unlikely to last if you don’t factor your own needs in, too.

The astrology of this full moon is all about forward motion, future plans and leaving the past behind. If it no longer serves you, let it go. If you’ve outgrown a situation, leave it behind. Call in people who get you and support you and want only the best for you. Don’t even think about trying to gain the approval of those who choose to misunderstand you. It’s good vibes only as April begins.

Here's everything to know about April 2026's full Pink Moon in Libra.

What is a Pink Moon?

April’s full moon is known as the Pink Moon, but that doesn’t mean it appears pink in the sky. It’s actually named after the pink wildflowers that appear in North America around this time of year. That doesn’t mean it’s lacking in magic, though. As spring gathers pace, the full moon in Libra provides a perfect opportunity to let go of anything (or anyone!) who is holding us back as we step into a bright new future. Whatever you want to do and whoever you want to be, this full moon has the energy you need to make a change.

What sign does this Full Pink Moon fall in and what does that mean?

This full moon falls in stylish, romantic Libra, which is associated with the seventh house in astrology. This is the house of relationships but that doesn’t mean it’s all about romance. Friendships, business connections and, really, any kind of dynamic duo can fall into focus during this full moon. Joint goals have a particularly magic on this full moon, so if you’re all sorted on the love front but ready to bag yourself an agent or create a collab or team up to support a cause, this is your chance to put the cosmos to work.

What should I do to make the most of the full moon energy?

Full moons are magical portals for both manifestation and release, and this Pink Moon is no exception. Appearing as spring begins to heat up, this is a full moon for shedding the remains of winter as summer begins to beckon.

Easy full moon rituals you can try include:

  • Gathering friends, getting outside and doing some moon bathing
  • Writing down everything you wish to let go of and burning the paper to ash.
  • Creating a vision board with everything you hope to manifest this spring.
  • Lighting a candle and making wishes for your future self.
