Entering April Fully Illuminated
Welcome to the April 2026 newsletter! Thank you for being here with me.
Before I began to write this newsletter, I thought about what this month means to me personally and what it might mean to us as a collective. As the days get longer, I am reminded of how illuminating this time of year can be, both literally (hello sun outside) and internally (hello feelings that need to be revisited).
I don’t know about you, but I have been feeling more emotional lately. I have felt more reflective and open to connecting to my ancestors who are on the other side of the veil.
How have you been feeling over the past few days? Are you feeling pulled towards illuminating some of your own deeply held feelings?
With more light entering our days… more of us is being revealed.
The parts we’ve been moving past (perhaps too quickly).
The feelings we thought had moved on.
The love (especially through grief) that never really left.
Perhaps this month is asking you to see clearly… and be ready to accept and love whatever it iis becomes into your vision.
🌕 APRIL MOON DATES
🌕 Full Moon in Libra — April 1
This Full Moon shines a light on your relationships… including the ones that live in your memory.
Libra energy asks:
- Where am I out of balance?
- What am I holding that still needs space to be felt?
- What does emotional honesty look like right now?
This is a deeply illuminating moon, one that may bring up grief, longing, or reflection. Perhaps this illuminating moon also reminds you that your ability to feel deeply is not a weakness. It’s a form of connection.
🌑 New Moon in Taurus — April 27
After all that illumination, this New Moon offers grounding.
Taurus invites you to:
- slow down
- reconnect with your body
- create safety in your daily life
This is a beautiful time to plant something simple and supportive:
- a new routine
- a moment of stillness
- a small act of self-care you can return to
Not everything needs to be intense to be meaningful.
🌿 A SIMPLE GRIEF RITUAL
This month, instead of trying to move past your feelings…
try sitting with them.
A gentle ritual:
- Light a candle
- Sit quietly for a few minutes
- Think of someone, something, or a version of life you miss
Place one hand on your heart…
and one on your stomach…
And softly say:
“This person / thing / situation / pet mattered to me.
And still does.”
No need to resolve anything.
No need to feel better.
Just let yourself acknowledge what is real.
📓 JOURNALING PROMPTS
Here are three prompts that can help guide you through feelings this month:
- What feels more visible in my life right now… emotionally or internally?
- What love still exists within me because of what I’ve lost?
- What would it look like to stop rushing my healing and simply allow it?

🌸
There’s a lot being illuminated right now.
And while that can feel intense. it’s also an invitation to:
See yourself more clearly.
Feel more honestly.
Carry your past, not as weight, but as something that shaped your capacity to love.
You don’t need to hide from the light.
You were made to be seen in it.
