April is the fourth month of the year, but it is also the month of the first zodiac astrological sign. As a result, April is a month with a few unique characteristics and a higher priority than the other months of the year.

Experts and astrologers have found that people born in April are more introverted than extroverted. They’re also too critical of themselves and others, striving for perfection in all they do. They enjoy traveling, despise disloyalty, and avoid imposters.
