Pink Moon: The Fascinating Full Moon of April 2023

From thepeculiarbrunette.com

The Full Moon of April 2023 is called the Pink Moon. Depending on where you live, Spring may be in full season, or newly formed buds are just beginning to take shape.

Determined tulips and daffodils push their way forward, destined to show off a bright brilliant display of colors. The air simmers with anticipation and possibilities! We are entirely immersed in the season of Spring, and with it, themes of prosperity and a deep internal mindset shift.

The Full Moon of April 2023 is a time to fully focus on the present. We’re past the planning stages and have begun implementing changes we’ve been plotting and scheming all Winter long.

As rain, thunder, and wind storms continue throughout the month of April, they spread seeds and life along with it. Reminding us of the power, strength, and endurance of Mother Nature.

Every full moon has its own name based on the month or the season in which it appears. Creating a name for each full Moon allowed people to reflect on each season and how it affects them AND the natural world. There can be some variation on the Full Moon names due to the origins from whence they came.

Most Full Moon names are English translations of Native American names; others are rooted in Celtic, European (Anglo-Saxon and Germanic), and more recent Neo-Pagan origins. I created a guide to each Full Moon, complete with their meanings and how you can celebrate

Archangel – Uriel

How to Recognize Archangel Uriel from learnreligions.com

Archangel Uriel, the angel of wisdom, often gives people sparks of inspiration and motivation as they seek to live faithful lives. You can count on Uriel to help shine the light of God’s wisdom into your life, believers say. Here are some signs of the angel Uriel’s presence:

Help Discovering God’s Wisdom

Since Uriel specializes in helping people discover God’s wisdom, Uriel may be visiting you when you gain new insights about the best decisions to make in various situations, say believers.

Uriel directs your focus to the one he serves: God, write Linda Miller-Russo and Peter Miller-Russ in their book Dreaming With the Archangels: A Spiritual Guide to Dream Journeying: “Uriel will help you focus your consciousness on the eternal presence of the Creator with gratitude and appreciation for the divine plan of life.”

In his book Uriel: Communication With the Archangel For Transformation and Tranquility, Richard Webster writes that Uriel will help you discover God’s prophecies by using your God-given intuition: “Uriel is the archangel of prophecy and is willing to help you develop your psychic powers and intuitive skills. He can provide insights through visions, dreams, and sudden perceptions. Once he knows that you are interested in developing these talents, he will provide regular, ongoing assistance.”

The guidance that Uriel provides can prove useful for everyday situations, such as solving problems or engaging in conversations, writes Doreen Virtue in her book Angels 101: “The archangel of light can illuminate your mind with wise ideas and concepts. Call upon Uriel for problem solving, brainstorming, or important conversations.”

Help Developing Confidence

Knowing that you can rely on Uriel to give you regular doses of wisdom gives you valuable confidence, believers say.

In her book The Healing Power of Angels: How They Guide and Protect Us, Ambika Wauters writes: “Archangel Uriel helps us live our worthiness and find our freedom from abusive situations which diminish our value. Archangel Uriel heals any loss of self-respect. He helps us find empowerment in our own value so we can shine our light on to the world and claim our good.”

Sparks of Electricity

Since Uriel often sparks our minds with fresh ideas, he sometimes manifests physically through electrical signs, writes David Goddard in his book The Sacred Magic of the Angels: “Uriel has a great affinity with that mysterious force called electricity. His presence is often heralded by electrical appliances fusing and light bulbs failing; he also manifests in thunderstorms.”

Motivation to Serve Others

Uriel, who is in charge of the red angel light ray (which represents service), wants you to take the wisdom he gives you and put it into action to serve people in need as God leads you, say believers. So when you feel an urge to reach out to serve others, that may be a sign of Uriel’s presence with you.

“Archangel Uriel is an angel of service,” write Cecily Channer and Damon Brown in their book The Complete Idiot’s Guide to Connecting With Your Angels. “He knows that service to others is what brings true richness, true rewards, and true inner peace. Archangel Uriel encourages people to create peace with others, humbly serve fellow brothers and sisters, see beyond the material world, and be loyal to worthwhile causes.”

Help Serving Others

Not only will Uriel motivate you to serve people in need, but he will also empower you to do so, writes Webster in Uriel: Communication With the Archangel For Transformation and Tranquility. “If you feel the need to serve or help others in any way, Uriel is willing to do everything he can to help you. … anything that you do to benefit humanity or the world will receive his help and support.”

You’re in a great mood today! Get out and enjoy communicating with others because you have something to say! Short trips will appeal. You will also enjoy learning something new and getting in touch with siblings, relatives and neighbours. Busy you!

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Financial matters look excellent for you today and tomorrow. Some of you might see ways to boost your earnings. Meanwhile, trust your moneymaking ideas because they might be worthwhile. If shopping, keep your receipts because you will be tempted to go overboard.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

This is a great weekend for you because the Moon is in your sign. This means things will tend to go your way, even though you will be more excitable and emotional. Do something to get away from all this. Any change of scenery will be a welcome stimulation.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Although you want to travel and do something different because you feel you need a change of scenery; nevertheless, you also want to slow down and take it easy this weekend. You want to indulge yourself and pamper yourself in a personal way. That’s just fine. Invest in yourself because you are your best resource.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

This is a great day to schmooze with others because you actually feel the need to be in contact with friends. In particular, groups and gatherings will appeal to you because you want to feel involved and part of the scene. Because your ambition is aroused, others will listen to you. “Now hear this.”

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

People notice you today. In fact, they seem to know details about your life, which is why they will reach out to talk to you. (This might be a good thing – or not.) You will accomplish the most today by working with others, especially people from other cultures or contacts in other countries.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

This is a great time for a vacation, especially if you can get away somewhere different. Even a weekend getaway will be satisfying for you. The thing is you want a change of scenery and you want the stimulation of new faces, new places and fresh activities. You will also enjoy learning something new.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Family discussions will go well today, particularly because issues about shared property, money and practical help will benefit you. It’s a good day to discuss how to share something, perhaps an inheritance. It’s also a good time to discuss how to share responsibilities.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Today you have to go more than halfway when dealing with others, which is not a big deal. In fact, you will enjoy being involved with groups and casual settings or social occasions. You will also enjoy entertaining at home.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

This is an excellent day for business and commerce. Look for ways to boost your income. Explore financial negotiations and opportunities for a better paying job. Trust your moneymaking ideas because today, you’re not afraid to think big. Confidence!

If Your Birthday Is Today

Actress Annette O’Toole (1952) shares your birthday today. You are an optimist who is flexible and fast-changing. You follow your heart’s desire. You are also multitalented and interested in many things. This year’s about socializing and enjoying life and your relationships with others. Nurture the happiness and beauty that you have within yourself.

A Thought for Today – I Am a Witch
