April- The Power of Presence


Life is full of surprises, challenges, and moments that demand our attention. But how we handle them makes all the difference. Do we react impulsively, or do we take a step back and respond with intention? This month, let’s explore the power of patience, trust, and tuning into the right action at the right time.
Life is full of surprises, challenges, and moments that demand our attention. But how we handle them makes all the difference. Do we react impulsively, or do we take a step back and respond with intention? This month, let’s explore the power of patience, trust, and tuning into the right action at the right time.

When I tuned into the energy for April, it was split in two. In the first part, we have themes around presence, patience and trusting our manifestations. The second part focuses more on the power of presence and correct action. Let's dive in.

 

April 1st-20th

 

Making time for reflection

 

There’s a deep need for more reflection in our lives. Too often, we just react—to the news, to our emotions, to whatever chaos is happening around us. But instead of jumping to conclusions or making impulsive decisions, take a step back. This is especially important in the first two weeks of the month, when planetary energies are still volatile. Pause. Breathe. Journal. Let things settle before making any big moves.

 

But Don’t censor yourself.

 

New ideas? Fresh feelings? Let them flow. The Divine works through inspiration. Don’t shut down inspiration when it comes. If a plan or idea is forming inside you, give it space to grow organically and naturally.

 

Patience is key.

 

Big changes take time, and most people aren’t fans of change. It might feel like nothing is happening, but trust me, things are shifting behind the scenes. Creation begins in the Spiritual Realm before it materializes. We’re still in a period of upheaval after the eclipses—just look at the recent 7+ magnitude earthquake in Myanmar and Thailand. The dust will need to settle so more patience may be needed at the start of the month.

 

Let go of control

 

If you’re holding on too tight to a specific outcome, you might actually be blocking your own progress. You don’t have to force things. When the time is right, you’ll feel it in your body and everything will start to line up. If things aren’t moving, maybe it’s not time yet. So ask yourself: Who’s really in charge here—your ego, your personal agenda, or something bigger?

 

Heart over mind

 

There’s a reason people place their hands in prayer position—the head bows to the heart. Your heart is connected to something greater. Beneath all the noise, trauma, and conditioning, there’s a deep knowing inside you. Ask of the Divine: What’s the best outcome for everyone involved? Put that intention out there and trust the best solution is coming, even if you can’t see it yet.

 

For the first part of the month, you might try working with Moonstone to promote states of calm reflection and inner peace, and to sharpen your intuition.


April 20th-30th

 

Knowing when to act

 

There is a moment of swift, correct action that you can channel if you are listening to your body. When right action moves through you, go with it. It might feel sudden, even scary, but nature works like that. Think of a storm rolling through—it shakes everything up, and afterward, nothing is quite the same. When you feel that internal charge building, take a step, any small step forward towards your goal. There’s a flow you can tap into, a current that will carry you forward, like birds on the wind. You just need to be paying attention.

 

Expect the unexpected

 

The second part of the month may throw some surprises your way. How will you respond? Suppose you get a letter telling you that your job is ending, or your son suddenly moves out to live with his girlfriend. Instead of reacting from old programs: fear, feeling victimized, trying to meddle or stay in control, pause. Listen. Could this actually be leading you (all) somewhere better? Change can feel abrupt, but trust that it's moving you closer to where you need to be.

 

Responding vs. Reacting

 

Before you react, take a breath. If you feel your emotions spiking—anger, confusion, frustration—stop! Your body is signalling that you need a moment. Just a few seconds of stillness can bring clarity. The answer will come to you because in the stillness of that moment, you just asked your Higher Aspect how to respond. 

 

Maybe the best response now is silence. Maybe it’s a simple smile. Or maybe it’s speaking up, but in a way that’s calm and intentional.

 

At the same time, be open to opportunities. Sometimes, life asks us to expand and step up in unexpected ways. If something feels right (even if it’s a little scary), trust that you can fill the energy as needed. Call on your Multidimensional Self to help you adjust and adapt. Ask for help drawing upon all your wisdom and skills, and just go for it!

 

For this part of the month, if you have any garnet, citrine or tiger's eye, you could employ them to stay grounded and take correct action.


Remember, , flexibility is your best friend this month. Keep an open mind. The right action might be no action at all, changing direction, or taking the plunge. Tune into your body for cues on where the energy is flowing.

 

Right now, the only mistake you can make is being impulsive. Stay present, stay connected, and you’ll know exactly what to do.

 

Lots of love,

Debra
