Episode 13 - April Forecast: Watch your Ego, Take Action, Stay Grounded, and Hold on TIGHT! Yang Earth Dragon

The Curiosity Solution Podcast

When the month animal is the same as the year animal, the energy is doubled. This can feel scary and intense, but just remember that anything good can also get doubled! We are also experiencing Mercury Retrograde from April 1-25, so expect delays, frustrations, communication challenges, as well as fixing problems that needed closure, finding new pathways to understanding, and lots of creative problem-solving opportunities. Toss in a Full Solar Eclipse on the 8th, and it becomes even more exciting!

The I Ching card for the month of the Yang Earth Dragon is #10, Treading. It's primary message is to conduct yourself with great self-awareness and responsibility. Notice when the ego is driving the bus vs the Soul/essence. This is especially important with Mercury Retrograde, since many like to use that particular optical illusion as the excuse for bad behavior, rudeness, and making others wrong when the reality is closer to us not proceeding with the requisite caution and sensitivity. This month, notice when you are acting on "auto-pilot" when greater awareness is actually what is needed.

Clarifying cards:

36, Darkening of the Light, focus line 2 * This card felt a little too "on the nose" with the Eclipse energy that will be present at the start of the month. However, it's a great reminder to look inward first, to reduce your profile temporarily, and use your "down time" for self-development.

25, Innocence, focus line 6

* This month, expect that our open-heartedness and trusting nature will feel vulnerable. Various groups may try to sway you into contorting yourself into a protective and defensive stance. Resist this, as the ability to be spontaneous and enthusiastic will be needed to ride the waves of the doubled energy. Comparison and rationalization will only lead to exhaustion and frustration.

1, The Creative, focus line 6 * This card is a pure Yang card. It represents ultimate potential and is known as Dragon Power. It is the inspired spark that leads to creation and expansion. Be aware that the ego can distort this power with arrogance, leading to a fall. Notice when you are not listening to the divine feminine, as the pure Yin energy is always there to offer intuition, gentleness, and harmony.

35, Progress, focus line 2 *

Again, a little "on the nose" with this card. It's all about looking at things in the full "light of the day", with a focus on enhanced clarity and exposing what would have preferred to live in the dark. This card, which fell out unexpectedly, is a caution to again check the ego's need for "specialness". It's good to acknowledge one's efforts and successes, but dwelling on finding ways to impress others with your achievements may impact the ability to notice the actions necessary for the next move.

Conflict dates: 4/4, 4/16, 4/28 (Dog days) Spotlight dates: 4/10, 4/22, 5/4 (Dragon days)
