About April 2026
Historians genuinely don't agree on where April's name comes from — a Latin root meaning 'to open,' referencing spring's blooming buds, is one leading theory, while a competing one links it to an Etruscan name for Aphrodite. What's certain is its early position in the Roman calendar's original ten-month structure, sitting second right after March. The diamond is April's traditional birthstone, prized in folklore for durability, and the daisy and sweet pea serve as its birth flowers. Its ruling sign moves out of Aries and into Taurus partway through, while the Northern Hemisphere enjoys full spring bloom and the Southern Hemisphere settles into deepening autumn.
April is a core planting month across much of the temperate Northern Hemisphere's agricultural belt, as the risk of hard frost recedes in most regions.
US federal and most state income tax returns are typically due in mid-April, making the weeks leading up to the deadline one of the busiest periods for tax preparers.
