Spiritual Guidance for April

Decks used: Joules Taylor “Celtic Messages”; John Holland “The Psychic Tarot”; Colette Baron-Reid “The Enchanted Map”

Phew! Has the month of March been as busy as predicted? Are you feeling the renewal of planetary energy and are you welcoming all the blessings Universe bestows upon you? For me, this has been the busiest month I’ve had in a long time, I feel energized, my faith is renewed and I have because more acutely aware of old patterns or beliefs I have been holding on to, even though they don’t serve me anymore in the present nor where Spirit is steering me… Leave a comment below: how has March been for you?

This month, all three cards have similar messages of peace, belonging, safety and security in this physical world. They also have an element of action or choice that needs to be made. A path to abundance lay before us, but it will remain out of our reach if we decide to stay back and lick our wounds, isolating ourselves from the gifts life and community have to offer. This is a time to feel confident in our skills and in the gifts we are called upon to share with the world. It is time to share the bounty of our soul, confident and secure that all the Love and Light we share will be returned ten-fold in myriad wonderful ways.

The cauldron symbolizes mystic regeneration and that which nourishes the soul as much as the physical body. It is time to find an outlet for all those ideas that have been bubbling away for so long lest they stick to the pot! Consult with financial or investment specialists regarding your project. Consult with family members and close friends; gather them around your hearth fire and listen to their wisdom. Most of all, consult with your inner guidance system and with Spirit and once you have all the ingredients for your recipe – get cooking! Your project will be delicious. Be prepared to share.

The 9 Swords advises you to quit worrying. To build on the above metaphor, know that once your cake is in the oven worrying about it doesn’t do much except drain your energy. Trust that you have made it right with all the best ingredients you could find, that it is now under the care of the best oven, and therefore allow it to rise and bake on its own. Have faith in the process. Keep positive expectations of how delicious it will be and how delightful it will be to share with friends and family. Get out of your head and out of your worries, and enjoy the moment. This card is a reminder to take action and trust that your soul and the power of spirit will grasp you firmly by the hand and guide you, but you must let go of the mental distress. Don’t suffer in silence – reach out for the help that is available to you.

Once you let go of your mental distress, you’ll be flooded by that good feeling belonging, of having arrived, of being home. Experience what it is like to be secure in your own skin and to live comfortably no matter what the external circumstances of your life. Open your eyes and find “your tribe” of like-minded people. Be confident that you are exactly where you need to be at this time, and stay on your path. If it is paved with Love, you can’t go wrong, no matter where it leads you.
