April 2024 is an intense month, no doubt, and we've been invited to look deeply and honestly within. What parts of us are holding us back? How do we know we're on the right path? 

Dragonfly Spirit has a message for us to help us maneuver through this month of amazing transformation, highlighted by a full solar eclipse which happened on the 8th.

"Everything is right the way it is right now," is a quote by Jared, who texted that to me one night.

00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:00.540
Hello.

00:00:00.540 --> 00:00:02.879
And how is April going for you?

00:00:02.879 --> 00:00:05.370
We had a pretty intense eclipse on April 8th.

00:00:05.940 --> 00:00:06.780
In Aries.

00:00:07.224 --> 00:00:08.035
And I believe.

00:00:08.257 --> 00:00:10.807
This ties a bit to the card.

00:00:11.166 --> 00:00:12.487
Of the month, which was devil.

00:00:13.016 --> 00:00:15.836
The devil it's about negativity.

00:00:15.836 --> 00:00:16.324
It's about.

00:00:16.542 --> 00:00:17.321
Addiction.

00:00:17.352 --> 00:00:18.042
It's about.

00:00:18.716 --> 00:00:23.181
The patterns in our lives that are keeping us from freedom really.

00:00:23.553 --> 00:00:24.092
So.

00:00:24.425 --> 00:00:27.545
As the sun is in Aries and was eclipsed.

00:00:27.992 --> 00:00:28.862
In areas.

00:00:29.073 --> 00:00:32.942
We had the opportunity to really look at ourselves with full.

00:00:33.356 --> 00:00:35.216
Full honesty and clarity.

00:00:35.506 --> 00:00:41.627
I was given an account of the eclipse by somebody who was in the path of totality.

00:00:41.627 --> 00:00:43.817
And it was very cool.

00:00:44.054 --> 00:00:45.645
The sunlight's the sky.

00:00:46.216 --> 00:00:51.496
Even when only a sliver is showing, which I was able to see where I am.

00:00:51.975 --> 00:00:59.354
Because the sun was 97 or 98% covered, but it really did not get dark out.

00:00:59.895 --> 00:01:05.444
It got a little bit strange and eerie, but it did not get completely dark, like night.

00:01:06.015 --> 00:01:07.605
Which apparently it did.

00:01:08.024 --> 00:01:08.983
Farther north.

00:01:09.674 --> 00:01:10.334
And.

00:01:11.174 --> 00:01:16.213
You could see the halo of the sun, but other than that, It was dark.

00:01:17.125 --> 00:01:20.545
So the devil card is the card of the month.

00:01:20.605 --> 00:01:23.844
If this is again from the wild on Ontario, let's review it.

00:01:24.274 --> 00:01:27.243
Though it may feel frightening when the devil appears.

00:01:27.754 --> 00:01:31.653
This card carries an urgent message and must be interpreted with total honesty.

00:01:32.134 --> 00:01:36.843
The darkness of the devil card takes the form of addiction, negativity, or materialism.

00:01:37.563 --> 00:01:45.603
It can indicate an ugly relationship with a person or substance identify this dependency and how it's holding you back.

00:01:46.233 --> 00:01:48.603
The devil's hooves are strong and relentless.

00:01:49.054 --> 00:01:53.884
And their grip will not loosen unless a conscious change has made free yourself.

00:01:54.370 --> 00:01:57.459
So again, the way to free ourselves to become aware.

00:01:57.819 --> 00:02:00.280
Of what is keeping us in shackles.

00:02:00.769 --> 00:02:02.239
And that's only the first step.

00:02:02.774 --> 00:02:08.473
All the other steps that come after it, it seems like only one step, but it's many because action.

00:02:09.313 --> 00:02:10.274
Typically.

00:02:10.718 --> 00:02:11.649
Takes turns.

00:02:12.158 --> 00:02:13.989
There is this action.

00:02:14.498 --> 00:02:17.618
And that leads to that action, which leads to another action.

00:02:18.182 --> 00:02:23.412
So the recommendation is to of course, Look at yourself with neutrality.

00:02:23.825 --> 00:02:27.246
Can you be okay with how things are as they are.

00:02:27.781 --> 00:02:30.931
Not judging them as good and bad, but.

00:02:31.409 --> 00:02:32.969
Judging them as.

00:02:33.659 --> 00:02:36.389
This is what is best for me right now.

00:02:36.840 --> 00:02:39.479
Or this is not best for me right now.

00:02:39.870 --> 00:02:40.979
There's no right or wrong.

00:02:41.009 --> 00:02:43.110
There's just, yes, no.

00:02:43.650 --> 00:02:44.490
For the soul.

00:02:44.939 --> 00:02:47.400
I'm going to draw an animal card for us.

00:02:47.400 --> 00:02:51.990
Now, this is from the spirit animal, Oracle by Colette Baron, Reid.

00:02:52.492 --> 00:02:53.302
To help us.

00:02:53.638 --> 00:02:56.518
Maneuver through the month of April.

00:02:56.858 --> 00:02:58.418
Where the devil within.

00:02:58.820 --> 00:03:01.138
Is showing itself to us.

00:03:01.365 --> 00:03:03.705
So that we can transmute and transform.

00:03:04.567 --> 00:03:05.796
And here it is.

00:03:06.100 --> 00:03:07.330
Dragonflies spirit.

00:03:07.811 --> 00:03:10.270
Popped out of the deck and this.

00:03:10.734 --> 00:03:11.903
Is a challenge for me.

00:03:12.473 --> 00:03:13.614
To hold it together.

00:03:13.824 --> 00:03:14.933
Dragonflies spirit.

00:03:15.217 --> 00:03:15.877
So is that.

00:03:16.176 --> 00:03:16.747
Truth.

00:03:17.167 --> 00:03:18.606
Transcends illusion.

00:03:19.008 --> 00:03:22.188
This is the message from, from dragon fly.

00:03:23.359 --> 00:03:29.329
Dragon fly spirit is here to remind you of the wisdom and truth available at all times in the hidden realms.

00:03:30.139 --> 00:03:34.158
Just as a dragon fly, catches your eye with its reflective wings and body.

00:03:34.788 --> 00:03:43.758
Dragonflies spirit appears to tell you to pay attention to the truth beyond the illusion and recognize the insights that come seemingly out of nowhere.

00:03:44.329 --> 00:03:46.437
Peaking through from behind the veil.

00:03:47.008 --> 00:03:48.269
In the realm of spirit.

00:03:48.818 --> 00:03:52.418
There's far more wisdom than you can perceive with your senses.

00:03:53.018 --> 00:03:56.228
And there is a deep knowing that you are not separate or alone.

00:03:56.828 --> 00:03:59.168
For a higher power recognizes you.

00:03:59.527 --> 00:04:01.177
And lumps you beyond measure.

00:04:02.587 --> 00:04:07.897
Fierce dissipate, as you realized you weren't embraced by the nurturing force that has everywhere.

00:04:08.467 --> 00:04:10.298
Always in communication with you.

00:04:11.266 --> 00:04:13.396
Uh, lighting when you are preoccupied.

00:04:13.757 --> 00:04:15.736
Dragon fly offers this message.

00:04:16.427 --> 00:04:21.257
You exist in unity with all including the protective spirits who share their wisdom.

00:04:21.826 --> 00:04:23.567
And you are being nudged along the path.

00:04:23.567 --> 00:04:27.257
Your soul needs to travel to have the experiences it craves.

00:04:29.038 --> 00:04:31.228
Love exists in many forms.

00:04:32.129 --> 00:04:36.298
And sometimes we overlook it when we don't recognize a particular form.

00:04:37.389 --> 00:04:39.158
Pay attention to the signs now.

00:04:39.928 --> 00:04:46.288
They remind you that each of us have inspired dreams, seamlessly sewn into the fabric of the invisible world.

00:04:47.098 --> 00:04:52.738
And there's a great consciousness that exists in the seemingly empty spaces, carding us on our journey.

00:04:53.908 --> 00:04:54.988
Open to the truth.

00:04:55.499 --> 00:05:01.408
Letting the wisdom of the hidden realms inform you, providing insights, your conscious mind overlooks.

00:05:02.009 --> 00:05:03.418
And I was we're working with the devil.

00:05:03.418 --> 00:05:07.889
I'm going to read the protection message from dragonfly's spirit as well.

00:05:08.295 --> 00:05:20.985
Did you really think this world of the census is all there is from the hidden mystical realms signs are being sent to you, but perhaps you have perceived separation and convinced yourself that you are on your own.

00:05:21.295 --> 00:05:28.495
Have you fallen into spiritual amnesia and forgotten your connection to a living loving, always supportive universe.

00:05:28.932 --> 00:05:31.841
If so rubbed the sleep out of your eyes.

00:05:32.471 --> 00:05:37.992
For dragonflies spirit is here to remind you of all the love and support available to you in every moment.

00:05:38.682 --> 00:05:42.612
There is an ongoing principle, underlying the events you have experienced.

00:05:42.942 --> 00:05:45.281
And dragonfly's spirit can help you see it.

00:05:45.672 --> 00:05:46.692
And trust that spirit.

00:05:46.692 --> 00:05:47.382
How's your back.

00:05:47.836 --> 00:05:51.346
Let go of the illusion of chaos and randomness love is here.

00:05:51.586 --> 00:05:54.346
So follow the signs that appear serendipitously.

00:05:54.721 --> 00:05:57.391
As you pay attention to the magic all around you.

00:05:57.901 --> 00:05:59.911
You will know you are on the right track.

00:06:01.112 --> 00:06:03.692
I have one simple thought about the right track.

00:06:05.216 --> 00:06:08.937
The way, you know, that you're on the right track, is that you're on.

00:06:09.476 --> 00:06:10.557
The one that you're on.

00:06:11.202 --> 00:06:16.572
There's a lesson in every experience and frankly, life is simply moving.

00:06:17.545 --> 00:06:18.805
The way that it moves.

00:06:19.346 --> 00:06:20.875
And we are a part of.

00:06:21.360 --> 00:06:22.350
Life itself.

00:06:22.379 --> 00:06:22.860
We're not.

00:06:23.459 --> 00:06:25.170
Separate little entities.

00:06:25.769 --> 00:06:28.829
Running around, like we're different or even important.

00:06:28.860 --> 00:06:29.670
We all are.

00:06:30.180 --> 00:06:31.350
Different and important, but.

00:06:31.769 --> 00:06:34.769
We're all different and important because we're all part of the same life.

00:06:35.302 --> 00:06:40.733
And we're all interconnected and interrelated and have similar experiences.

00:06:40.762 --> 00:06:41.572
There are four.

00:06:41.773 --> 00:06:42.223
Maine.

00:06:42.399 --> 00:06:43.298
Emotions.

00:06:43.666 --> 00:06:45.526
Glad sad, mad and scared.

00:06:46.105 --> 00:06:46.735
That's it.

00:06:47.055 --> 00:06:49.913
So if you're feeling afraid, You're not the only one.

00:06:50.783 --> 00:06:52.012
And if you're feeling happy.

00:06:52.560 --> 00:06:53.641
No, not the only one.

00:06:54.901 --> 00:06:55.891
When you're sad.

00:06:56.314 --> 00:06:58.774
At least 2 billion people are feeling sad with you.

00:06:59.288 --> 00:07:00.338
And when you're angry.

00:07:01.036 --> 00:07:02.625
You're not the only one that's angry.

00:07:04.125 --> 00:07:06.615
How are we going to use these emotions?

00:07:07.456 --> 00:07:08.925
How are we going to let them.

00:07:09.375 --> 00:07:10.185
Move us.

00:07:10.714 --> 00:07:12.035
I'm a cancer rising.

00:07:12.035 --> 00:07:18.904
So everything I do is the cancer way and the cancer ways to feel everything wholly and fully and completely.

00:07:18.935 --> 00:07:19.504
And it's.

00:07:19.956 --> 00:07:20.946
Painful.

00:07:21.321 --> 00:07:21.980
Often.

00:07:22.468 --> 00:07:23.817
And so liberating.

00:07:24.355 --> 00:07:25.795
The freedom is so sweet.

00:07:25.826 --> 00:07:27.565
It's worth any of the bitterness.

00:07:27.855 --> 00:07:29.716
That the emotions might pull.

00:07:30.255 --> 00:07:30.615
Up.

00:07:31.425 --> 00:07:32.086
To look at.

00:07:32.956 --> 00:07:34.935
To move through to move off.

00:07:35.427 --> 00:07:38.127
Be with yourself because when you're with yourself, you're with everyone.

00:07:38.853 --> 00:07:39.963
We are all really.

00:07:40.286 --> 00:07:41.456
Particles in this.

00:07:42.266 --> 00:07:44.369
Fun play of energy.

00:07:44.572 --> 00:07:45.831
And sound and light.

00:07:46.581 --> 00:07:47.151
So open.

00:07:47.358 --> 00:07:48.499
Be open to.

00:07:49.129 --> 00:07:51.019
Relax into knowing that.

00:07:51.889 --> 00:07:54.108
Um, part of this life, that's it.

00:07:54.858 --> 00:07:55.999
Life is moving me.

00:07:56.418 --> 00:07:56.838
Wow.

00:07:57.588 --> 00:07:59.178
What a fucking adventure.

00:07:59.951 --> 00:08:00.822
And how deep.

00:08:02.232 --> 00:08:03.882
Breathe the life in that you are.

00:08:05.651 --> 00:08:06.401
Exhale.

00:08:07.422 --> 00:08:08.502
The light that you are.

00:08:11.141 --> 00:08:12.942
I'd love to hear how your month is going.

00:08:13.632 --> 00:08:16.451
You can contact me at Laura, christine.us.

00:08:17.081 --> 00:08:18.012
Until next time.

00:08:18.461 --> 00:08:19.002
I'm sending.

00:08:19.901 --> 00:08:20.771
All the love.

00:08:21.442 --> 00:08:22.192
And then some more.

00:08:22.781 --> 00:08:23.440
We'll talk soon.
