1st decan of Taurus: Mercury
Each sign is divided into three decans, 10° slices that the Sun crosses in about ten days each. April 29 falls in the first decan of Taurus (about April 20–29), which the traditional Chaldean system assigns to Mercury. Astrologers say that adds curiosity, quick thinking and verbal agility.
Mercury sharpens the mind here — expect a restless curiosity, a love of talking things through and a knack for picking up new skills fast.

What zodiac sign is April 29?
April 29 falls in Taurus, which runs from April 20 to May 20 in the tropical zodiac. The Sun changes sign at a slightly different moment each year, so the boundary can fall a day or so either side of these dates. If you were born close to the edge, your birth year, time and place decide it.
Is April 29 a cusp birthday?
Not by the usual definition, which counts the first and last couple of days of a sign. April 29 is day 10 of Taurus season, so it is normally read as a clear Taurus birthday.
Which decan is April 29?
April 29 is in the first decan of Taurus (April 20–29). In the traditional Chaldean system this decan is ruled by Mercury, which astrologers say adds its own flavour to Taurus. Some modern astrologers assign decan rulers by element instead, which gives different planets, and decans are strictly 10° slices of the zodiac, so the date range is approximate.
What are the birthstone and flower for April?
The modern birthstone for April is Diamond and the birth flower is the sweet pea. These come from calendar tradition rather than astrology, and the lists vary by country and source.
