April Fool’s Day on April 1st kicks off the month, where people play pranks on each other and spread happiness. It’s a day where harmless jokes are played, and friends and family members try to trick each other in a fun way. This tradition is celebrated worldwide, and it’s a great way to start the month off with a smile.
The full moon in April will be in the sign of Libra, and it can provide us with valuable insights into the imbalances that exist in our closest relationships. Libra, which is ruled by Venus, is known for seeking harmony, but it can sometimes forget to prioritize its own interests. The full moon can highlight issues relating to balance, justice, and personal values, urging us to make necessary adjustments to achieve greater harmony.

Spiritual Uplifts Magical Moon for March

By Kimberly Hastings, April 1, 2024

April’s full moon is the “Full Pink Moon,” named by Native American tribes to reference the time of year that the wildflower, creeping phlox also known as “moss pink” begins to bloom. The Algonquin tribe call this moon the “Breaking Ice Moon,” and the Cree named it the “Frog moon,” both names acknowledging the return of warmer weather.

Last Quarter: April 1st  11:15 PM EST

New Moon: April 8th   2:21 PM EST

First Quarter: April 15th 3:13 PM EST

Full Moon: April 23rd 7:49 PM EST 

Full Moon Ritual for Rebirth

The Pink Full moon is the first full moon to occur after the Spring Equinox. It represents rebirth after the dormant energy of the winter season.

You will need the following:

2 white candles; Mother 7 Day candle

7 Chakra Sage

Tanzanite or Sunstone crystals (For best results, use a newly purchased crystal)

Sun’s Eye Greenman Oil

First, cleanse your space using the 7 Chakra Sage. This bundle includes white sage, which removes any negative energies, while burning the flowers that represent the chakras promotes balance within. Next, set up your altar by placing the white candles at the top of your altar, one on the left and the other on the right, with your Mother candle in the middle. The Mother candle welcomes new beginnings and enhances growth.

 Place your chosen crystals furthest to the left end of the altar. Tanzanite supports during major shifts in our lives such as a breakup or loss of a loved one, allowing you to embrace life again. Sunstone is a joyous stone, increasing vitality, self-worth and confidence.

 Light your Mother Candle and apply the Greenman oil to your wrists or diffuse, then sit comfortably in front of your altar. Greenman oil increases strength and assists in rebirth and growth. Once you are comfortable, take deep breaths in and out, imagining yourself on a path that weaves through a field of flowers, with birds, butterflies and all things spring surrounding you. Behind you is grayness, representing your doubts and the bleakness of winter.

 At the end of the path is a doorway, representing your renewal. Each time you exhale, you take a step further down the path closer to the door, releasing any fears and insecurities. Take as many steps as you need until you reach the door. When you are ready, you will walk through the door feeling confident and revitalized.

 To further release, take a cleansing bath with Epsom salt and purification oil. Apply the Greenman oil as needed and carry your crystal with you to continue the energies from your meditation.

I have been here several times and it has always been wonderful. I love the shop and the people. Today, 11/11/21, I went in to look for some new tools and cards to work with over my long weekend. I was stuck between four different decks and I finally asked one of the girls to pick for me. She chose the deck in the photo and I am so grateful to her. It felt immediately right AND when I got home, cleansed them, and did a deck interview I cannot explain how connected and spit on it was immediately. Thank you! I’m sorry I don’t remember your name but I appreciate you for confirming and helping.

Numerology

By Kimberly Hastings April 1, 2024

Throughout the year the Universe gives us time to refresh and recharge our batteries, allowing us to move forward with renewed enthusiasm. April is one such month, as it is a 3 Universal Month, the number representing creativity and vitality. Over the past few months, we have been focused on planning and working towards our goals. This month you have the time to reconnect with friends and enjoy the moment.

However, the lesson regarding balance continues this month, as April is a 4 month, the number of practicality and discipline. While we need time to enjoy life, we must avoid overindulgence. Too much going out or drinking could drain your resources, rather than recharge them.
