For the April Energy Forecast 2023, we are working with the CBD Tarot and tuning into the One Mind. We focus on one current energetic trend that is relevant to readers of the Angelorum blog. And we look at how to make the most of the energies for the Highest Good.
The trend itself will impact you as an individual in a unique way. So I would suggest sitting with it and tuning into what is relevant to you, what isn’t and how to best act on it. If we all do this for the Summum Bonum, these types of energy forecasts can be useful.
This is not a prediction or a predictive type of reading. I do not do those since I do not believe the future is set in stone. Nor do I believe that predictions serve humanity in the process of awakening.
April 2023 Theme
The Page of Pentacles gives us a theme of learning in April. This also ties in with the overall theme of the reading which is The Hierophant (based on the quint). I feel that we are starting to look at institutions of all levels of learning from a point of view of awakening collectively. More people may choose to homeschool as a result. People who enter higher education this year may question the worth of their education and be very aware of the agenda behind the programming.
On an individual level, this energy can give us a thirst for learning and a need to know the truth. We are beginning to see through the illusion that serves to feed division in the world. And we are starting to sense that there is a better way forward. We are more willing to embrace a beginner mindset. The way forward will not involve the old us vs them paradigm. It will be more holistic and more inclusive. <— That is not a prediction but a Spiritual Law.
April 2023 Challenge
With Judgement in this position, the challenge is literally to awaken to reality. Especially with this card wedged between two Earth Element cards (Suit of Pentacles/Coins). There are likely to be some big financial shake-ups too. And yes, I realise you don’t have to be Nostradamus to see that in today’s financial climate. But one way to summarise it is that the Big Shift that will usher in the Age of Aquarius will become very palpable/tangible in all our lives.
We are being pushed and prodded to our limit. The challenge then, if we wish to awaken fully from the dream that we are separate from God and each other, is to remain centred in Godde/Source/Spirit. It looks like it’s ALL about matter but it’s ALL about Spirit and waking up so we can embody Spirit.
On a mundane level, this can involve the need to make an important decision about work/finances and/or education this month for some of us. Make sure that any choice you make aligns you with your Highest Self and your greatest potential for future growth. It is important to not act out of fear or be reactive.
April 2023 Action Guidance
The Ace of Pentacles speaks of a need to be of a singular mind when it comes to practical matters. I feel it is the seed we each need to plant now to prosper in the future. We can’t afford to scatter our energy. They want you to keep scrolling and to keep hating. They don’t care if it is them you hate or if it is ‘the others’ who are on the other side of the divide that they programmed you to hate.
Being of a singular mind means having a positive focus on the things you wish to grow and nurture. If we all do this from a holistic point of view and with future generations in mind, we can create a great collective shift this month.
The Overall Theme
The Hierophant as the overall theme of this reading puts a focus on learning from ancient sources of wisdom. There is no need to reinvent the wheel or repeat old mistakes. What can you spend 20-30 minutes studying daily that will enrich your mind?
I also feel this is about not throwing the baby out with the bathwater. Nor is it about blaming everything on patriarchy. It’s about integrating the solar (conscious) and lunar (subconscious) selves.
The Shadow
At the bottom of the deck, we have the 8 of Pentacles as the Shadow Card. This signifies a subconscious limiting influence that we need to acknowledge so that we can release it. The Page of Pentacles can, under the influence of the 8 of Pentacles, be like the overly cautious student who worries about writing neatly and therefore takes too long complete his exam or project. Clear and release any perfectionist tendencies this month.
It’s not about perfection, it’s about progress.
