April 2025 Insights
"When we acknowledge unseen forces at play, we allow for possibility where uncertainty once stood." ~ Message from the Ethers
As we move into April, the energy of Sun and Elementals, which guide the year, continue to shape our experience. The year of possibilities begins to show up more clearly, as new opportunities and challenges emerge. April brings with it a time for forging anew, seeking inner alignment, and embracing the support of unseen forces. With the transformational levers of Metal, Inner, and Guardians, this month encourages us to cultivate resilience, embrace self-care, and trust in the guidance around us.
HEALTH: METAL
The Metal card guiding your health this month invites you to forge yourself anew. This is a time to embrace transformation and change in your physical and mental well-being. Metal represents the process of refining and strengthening, much like how metal is shaped in the fire to become stronger. What habits, routines, or mindsets are no longer serving you? Are you stuck in old patterns? This is the month to break free and take action. Asking for support, seeking new solutions, and avoiding isolation are crucial. Remember, you don’t have to do this alone. Metal calls for you to be bold, to try new tools, and to push through any resistance. Reflect on what you’ve taken for granted in your health journey and what tools or resources may be right before you, waiting to be used.
Affirmation: I forge.
Inquiry: What tools have I taken for granted?
RELATIONSHIPS: INNER
In matters of the heart, the Inner card reminds you that you are the vessel for your relationships. This month calls for introspection and nurturing from within. Instead of seeking answers or validation externally, turn your focus inward. Pause, reflect, and give yourself the time and space needed to reconnect with your true desires and needs in your relationships. Whether romantic, familial, or friendships, this is the time to tend to yourself first. Are you feeling fragmented or overextended? The Inner card encourages self-care, meditation, and quiet time to recalibrate. Resist the urge to rush, overwork, or become enmeshed in the needs of others. Only when you are whole can you show up fully in your relationships. This is a powerful month to refocus on yourself and your own heart.
Affirmation: I possess infinite opportunities and possibilities.
Inquiry: How have I fragmented myself, and how can I bring myself back to wholeness?
PROSPERITY: GUARDIANS
The Guardians card guiding your prosperity this month reminds you that you are held. Your guardians—whether you see them as spiritual guides, allies, or simply unseen forces—are present, supporting you in your financial and material journey. This is a month to trust in the co-creative process. What opportunities are showing up that you may not have noticed? Where can you ask for support or guidance in your financial decisions? The Guardians ask you to be mindful of fear, doubt, or narcissism that could block the flow of abundance. Remember, you are not walking this path alone—there is a wealth of support available to you if you allow yourself to receive it. Whether it's through collaboration, advice, or spiritual guidance, lean into the help that surrounds you.
Affirmation: I am held.
Inquiry: Where can I ask for support?
SUMMARY:
April is a month of renewal, introspection, and seeking support. With Metal guiding your health, you are invited to embrace transformation and forge new patterns that serve your well-being. The Inner card in relationships encourages selfcare and quiet reflection, reminding you to bring yourself back to wholeness before reaching out to others. And in matters of prosperity, the Guardians are by your side, encouraging trust and collaboration in your financial journey.
As Mercury goes retrograde this month, resist the urge to rush into new opportunities or decisions. Use this time to reflect, revisit, and reset. Allow yourself to pause and gather your bearings as the year of possibilities begins to reveal itself more fully. With patience, perspective, and the support of the Elementals and Sun energies, you are well-positioned to align with your dreams of health, love, and abundance. Journey well. - Lindsay Pera
Sun in exaltation illuminates our body-mind with messages from the heart of the warrior goddess as she is finally able to dissolve in the safest embrace of Divine Grace, and the ancestors rejoice. We have received our divine instruction and it’s time to move forward. Even our weak and limited self, as we perceive it, gets a blessing of renewed vitality and vigor, as we prepare to confront the unknown challenges ahead.
A new dream is forming and a sufficient amount of relaxation and pleasure is needed to catch a glimpse of it. It’s the loveliest time of year and, although passion and intensity may be ablaze, the overall vibe of the moment encourages slowing down, appreciating what already is, and having patience with trust in the process.
Power dynamics heat up again with the Taurus new moon as masculine leadership pushes for grand displays of strength and confidence to satisfy desires now, which does not align with feminine priorities of simple sustainability and ease. With grace and intuition, we move through this tension in a way that will ultimately serve competing needs and keep the spirit flame bright to guide us where we want to go. Balance, as always, is what we’re learning. - Katina Castillo
