As spring comes in we finally have a moment to reflect on the past winter months and breathe a sigh of relief. The harsh energy of these past months is warming into a much more prosperous and happy time. There is a feeling that a more secure foundation is being laid for the future. All your diligence is paying off and there is prosperity happening in April. In a way, this time feels like a milestone. Resolutions are happening and worrisome situations are stabilizing. Others will respond around you with more warmth and enthusiasm.

The cards reflect the vitality of the spring but also the sweetness that usually shows up in the fall. The joy this month is the release from all the seriousness that has been plaguing your mind and heart. You have an opportunity to see life less seriously. When you begin to see life as playful, all the burden on your heart disappears.

If you look at the religions, you realize that serious thinkers have created all of them. In our society, serious men and women attempting to find structure in a chaotic world also created most of our laws and moral codes. This is not bad but what has happened to the playful spirit within each of us?

This is the month to reclaim that playful spirit that still dwells within. This is an opportunity to let go of the fear of death, of life, of everything that has been weighing you down. It is through the light heartedness of spirit that you learn to let go and fly. Even great teachers, prophets, and saints have child-like moments where the joy and laughter radiates out from them unfettered and free.

There are moments when we can become so attached to our personality and behavior that we begin to believe that our personality is who we really are. That becomes the way our ego attempts to control our environment and life. Unfortunately, that never feels completely fulfilling.

This month take a look at your personality as a character that you are attempting to move love and conscious through. It is just your character. It is not actually your full and radiant self.

When you believe that your personality is you, you can get caught in its trap. Often seriousness is the result. But if you look at your personality as a character that you are playing out a game through this character that is an aspect of you.

In this way, you will begin to find freedom and movement within the humor of life as you play your life out as this character.

This is the month to look at how you can share your inner riches with others. The illusions that we tell ourselves are that we are not yet ready.

What if you are always ready?

All you need to do is to relax into who you really are. When you relax, then the light and consciousness bursts forth from your inner most self like the sweet juice from ripe fruit. When you embrace yourself that allows for you to embrace the new also. From an attitude of openness and acceptance we uncover the readiness that we all hold inside. In truth, we are always ready. We are always ripe. We just need to allow that perception to open us up to what already is.
