People born on April 30 often give the impression of being calm and collected. They love the good things in life, approaching others with affection. They can be extremely funny, as long as the joke is not on them, and their natural good cheer ensures they are the center of attention. However, contrary to their relaxed exterior, such is their intelligence and drive that they will feel unfulfilled unless they can devote themselves to their work or another person.
They tend to value commitment, responsibility and duty above all else; this is why they present a hardworking, cheerful and reliable front to the world. They are extremely capable practically and intellectually, trying their hands at almost any task. As pillars of the community, they may feel inclined to take up a charitable cause or generally do good deeds in the neighborhood.
There is a danger that their commitment to their boss, family or friends is so powerful it can become unquestioning and they end up performing tasks or running errands unworthy of them. They should not to be blind in their devotion or let the rank of a person intimidate them into compliance. They should also be careful that their dedication to a method, cause or project does not turn into stubbornness and obstinacy when alternatives are presented. Any form of aggression or criticism is likely to be met with anger or veiled threats; they need to learn to take criticism for what it is: someone else’s opinion. Fortunately, between the ages of twenty-one and fifty-one they may concentrate on new interests and acquiring knowledge; during this period they should try to treat criticism as a learning experience.
These charming, multi-talented and reliable people have the potential to make their mark on whatever project or goal interests them. They should be careful, however, that in their need to feel committed they don’t relinquish their objectivity. But when they do commit themselves to a worthwhile cause, they can surprise everyone with their spontaneity and ability to bring about progress.
☆ On the dark side：Rank-conscious, obstinate, blinkered
☆ At your best：Reliable, committed, upbeat
April 30 people are dominating personalities, but often have a desire to give up positions of responsibility and retire to a life of gracious ease. In discharging their professional responsibilities, they live by the book, not easily granting exceptions or specializing in shows of human understanding, unless it lies in the general interest to do so.
Though they make exacting bosses and managers, they are good enough to hold themselves to the same standards.
Because, for many born on this day, duty is a god, they can be too reluctant to question their own basic assumptions or those of their superiors and thus run the risk of doing a "good job" while heading off in a wrong direction morally. Those that become aware of this tendency stand a greater chance of success over the long haul, though they may at first be uncomfortable with the uncertainty they will experience.
Probably the greatest need of April 30 people in an authoritative position is to be loved and respected by those working under them. As colleagues, they both enjoy and thrive on the warmth of comradeship. In return, they tend to be highly protective towards their staff or fellow workers, who remain in their favor as long as there is agreement on certain basic issues.
For those they dislike or consider beneath their dignity, those born on this day generally exhibit scorn or contempt.
The need of April 30 people for affection from family and friends is also great. What they prize in relationships is freedom from irritations and strife, wishing both to be cared for and left alone. Children learn soon enough how to get what they want from an April 30 parent, who may seem intractable but in reality is putty in the hands of a cleverly manipulative son or daughter. Those born on this day are particularly vulnerable to the charms of a child of the opposite sex.
The way to persuade an April 30 person is most certainly not head on. Like a true Taurus bull, he/she will prove stubborn and immovable against what is perceived as aggression.
On the other hand, those born on this day admire grace and cleverness, even when they see that a subtle argument is being used to turn them around. They must beware of their tendency to bully others psychologically, intimidating through silence or implied threats.
April 30 people sometimes reject their own power, particularly women who may relinquish authority to their father, brother or mate. They should consider such a choice carefully, for it may eventually cause them unhappiness and frustration. Often mothers born on this day sublimate ambitious desires in their offspring. The nurturing qualities of this day tend to be very great, but April 30 parents must avoid smothering their children with too much (wellmeant) attention.

They also love their independence: therefore, frustration may be encountered by those April 30 people who must be involved socially and cannot free themselves of certain obligations. Jupiter lends an optimistic and expansive outlook to April 30 people (enhanced by a love of beauty and comfort from Venus, ruler of Taurus).

People born on April 30 are incredibly devoted and loyal in a relationship but they do need to take breaks every now and again. Their partners need to understand this and not interpret it as a problem within the relationship. Those born on this day therefore need to be clear about what makes them feel happy in a relationship and seek out someone who isn’t clingy.
People born on this day often neglect their own needs for those of another, in particular aging family members. It is crucial for their health and well-being that they take regular time out and make time for themselves and their interests; if they don’t, they may find themselves victims of stress, depression or, in extreme cases, cancer. Regular exercise is essential as long as their devotion to a particular training method is not taken to extremes. As far as diet and lifestyle are concerned they need to make sure they don’t over-indulge in rich food, drink, nicotine, and drugs. There are healthier ways to indulge their sensual nature, such as exercise, massage or mind-body therapies such as yoga or tai chi. Wearing, meditating on or surrounding themselves with the colors pink or orange will encourage them to attract some tender, loving care and put their own needs first.
Overindulgence of the senses, whether by eating, drinking, use of drugs or sex can pose dangers for April 30 people; perhaps sensuality can be channeled into less problematical pursuits. In the case of April 30 people who subordinate themselves to another, the danger of internalized anger leading to depression, ulcers or even cancer is real and best dealt with preventively through psychological treatment. Regular exercise outdoors is recommended for April 30 people, the only danger being that this activity may become a passion that interferes with the business of life. Fresh fruits, vegetables and salads are recommended as an alternative to heavy meat and starch consumption.
These people have the potential to make their mark on any career they choose, as they are highly valued for their intelligence and reliability. They may be drawn toward careers in education, law enforcement, the army, commerce, promotions, advertising, or sales. Alternatively they may be attracted to the caring professions, to humanitarian concerns or to social work. If they are creative, the world of the arts or entertainment, especially production or design, will appeal.
The life path of people born on this day is to make sure they are as committed to the development of their own talents as they are to those of others. Once they are able to find that balance, their destiny is to move the world forward by demonstrating the importance of respect and dedication.
Try to listen as much as possible to your inner voice; ask for higher guidance before making decisions. Consider the advice of your colleagues and friends. Cultivate tolerance. Keep a handle on your desires and be more self-aware.
