From an astrological point of view, the skies are absolutely popping in April. Some astrologers say April is the most important month of 2024 and others say most important month of the decade from a transformational perspective, both personally and collectively! If you live anywhere near the “path of totality” of the upcoming solar eclipse on April 8th, you probably already have a plan in place for observing the event (with proper glasses, of course). The next solar eclipse visible to all contiguous 48 states won’t be until 2044, so this is a big deal for those of us who live here. The impacts of the eclipse will be felt everywhere else on the planet, so no worries if you are not in the US. And there are plenty of other planetary aspects to check out for this busy month Astrology-forecast-april-2024. You can learn a lot about the eclipse here at this NASA site which features an interactive map and detailed info you won’t find anywhere else Nasaeclipse2024. And this article explains the spiritual side of the eclipse to give an esoteric perspective Completeguidetoeclipse.
If we look a little lower in the sky, we can enjoy watching the springtime busyness of our feathered friends. I have some Great Blue Herons and Snowy White Egrets who nest in very tall cypress trees behind my place. They are so busy building nests, squawking at each other, and soaring around the area since they recently returned. Here is a guide to upcoming festivals if you are a bird watcher like me Allaboutbirdsfestivals. I have the Cornell Merlin app on my phone which allows me to record bird sounds and identify types of birds based on their sounds. And as the weather warms up, it makes us think about our summer travels. If you are planning yours, you’ll be happy if you get to spend some time in one or some of these top 20 stand-out airports in the world Most-luxurious-airports-in-the-world. Which one is your favorite?

Take what resonates with you (and leave the rest for others).
(Tarot deck: Rider, Waite, Smith)
Card #1 – Temperance – The energy here is all about balancing the light and dark, easy and difficult, action and allowing energies within us. It is an alchemical balancing act combining the emotional, intellectual, physical and spiritual aspects of our lives in a way that helps us move into a higher place of alignment with our purpose and path.
CARD #2 - Lady (Kyle Gray’s Angels and Ancestors Oracle Cards) – Enjoy growth and reap rewards. The feminine energy here is that of the Empress in the traditional Tarot, and of Venus, ruler of loving, fertile, abundant, nurturing, and material energy. You have been “planting seeds,” working on yourself, making positive changes that may at times have been uncomfortable. Now those seeds are sprouting, budding, coming to life. There is material security and comfort indicated as already beginning to appear or on its way in the very near future. All types of opportunities are flourishing now. Connect with the perfection and intelligence of nature to enrich your daily experiences.
CARD #3 – Pileated Woodpecker (Maia Toll’s The Illustrated Bestiary Oracle Cards) – This is a card representing passion and fire. Have you forgotten your deepest dreams, desires, and joys? Overthinking and staying in our critical minds can keep us apart from the simple heartfelt joys that energize us. You may not know the woodpecker has an extra-long tongue that he wraps around his brain to protect it from the ongoing hammering he produces each day. There is rhythm and pattern in his drumming which invites you to get into the primal rhythm of the pulse of life again. Free yourself and feel your inner fire.
CARD #4 – The Moon – The energy of the new moon will be strong during the solar eclipse. It will obscure our biggest source of light making it difficult for us to see clearly. Our intuition will be blocked for a while. We must trust the Universe is guiding us to our best possible outcomes, both personally and collectively.
CARD #5 – Gratitude (Jody Bergsma’s Magical Times Empowerment Cards) – We feel better and experience more synchronicities when we stay in an attitude of gratitude. It is good for our hearts and souls. There is so much for which to be thankful and of which to be in awe. Let us always focus there.
May you always walk in the remembrance of who you truly are. And may you never lose your song.
