Oracle for April 2014 – Conviction
The energies and directions for the month of April are evolving around conviction. What the Oracle is telling you about conviction energy is that, by moving forward through the month of April with the conviction that you are on the right path at the right time doing the right thing, it will support astounding personal growth to you this month. And, if you are strong in your conviction, whatever changes come along are simply your spirit’s way of rerouting your path to keep you moving in the direction of your spirit’s choosing. Your angels, guides and spirit family will support you every step of the way. Sounds interesting, don’t you think? Do read on….
You began this year getting grounded. Then you moved into understanding that being flexible, as a spiritual practice, was your next step. Then you moved into exploring and integrating integrity into that grounded flexibility and now the Oracle’s signpost points you to consider standing in your own convictions, standing in the truth of who you are, as you move through the month of April.
As your trusty Oracle always does, we look to the dictionary definition to begin our journey of understanding what “conviction” is, so you can make sure to integrate it further into the depths of your spiritual practices. Let’s see if the definitions move us in the right direction at a spiritual level, as well as at mind, body and energetic levels.
We see that the dictionary defines “conviction” in two different ways. One is “the act of being convicted,” and convicted means to “prove or judge someone guilty.” Needless to say the standard meaning of conviction refers to its legal sense for the criminal and the convict. However, there is a second meaning. This, I think, is where the Oracle is pointing your exploration. That is, conviction refers to a strong opinion or belief.
I am sure you realize that doubts about yourself, your life, your life situation, really anything, are extremely powerful negative forces. Doubts can shake you to your roots. It is by having and integrating your own very strong convictions that can really change your life, forever. Strong convictions can guide you in a positive, confident way.
Doubters are afraid to take risks. They like to “play it safe.” Convictions provide us with permission to take risks. Doubt thwarts action. Conviction expands action. Conviction gives us the ability to make decisions, while doubt makes us shy away from decisions, afraid of making the wrong choices, or concerned about what someone else might think or do. Convictions provide a way for folks to be willing to work hard for what they believe in. Doubts cause the opposite, things do not get done or they get done in a haphazard way.
Given the nature of the changing energies at this time, with everything shifting, if you are paying more attention to your doubts and fears than to your convictions, the more you are hooked into the chaos and distraction of duality. Louisa May Alcott said: “Strong Convictions precede great actions.” It is indeed so, and extremely pertinent to these changing times of the 21st Century. Your convictions support what you need to do.
Therefore, the month of April calls forth a need for creating strong convictions in your life. Standing true to who you are, standing true to what you believe, knowing what it is that permeates your heart’s knowingness and standing in your truth, with a capital T. Having those principles upon which you live your life and upon which you flow your energy, will be an influence as the month of April opens, expands, closes and moves into the energies of May.
As a reader of the Oracle you are a way shower, as you grow and change and become more and more authentic in your convictions, you know at every level that your convictions, your inner knowingness, your heart’s knowingness, your intuition, that higher sense, flows out into the world, out onto the planet, out into a global scene healing, expanding and supporting the New. Work now to incorporate the strength of your conviction that despite what you see out there in the outer world–that, indeed, all really is well!
When you bring your convictions to the forefront this month for complete examination, there may be those that need to be released, those that need to be cherished or those that need to be polished and moved to be more apparent in your life. Remember too that as a way shower, it is part of who you are to be vulnerable and allow that which you believe, to be expressed. The important message is that your convictions do not need to be anyone else’s convictions. Everyone is a sovereign being doing what they do and having their own convictions which may or may not correspond to yours. When you are in alignment with the energies of your Divine Nature, your strong convictions give you the backbone to stand alone, if necessary.
Your willingness to follow your spirit’s directions, to do whatever is needed, whatever your inherent wisdom tells you, whatever your heart propels you to do – do it and keep your convictions reviewed and evaluated on a regular basis, be honest, truthful, congruent, authentic, transparent, compassionate. Therein, of course, lies the work for the month of April.
This Oracle is here to encourage you, yet again and always, to step into your real true self, be wholly who you are! It is here to support the expansion of your spirit. Know that spirit supports you each and every step of the way. Always remember…LOVE is all you need…
Let your mantra for the month of April be: I AM reviewing and evaluating and firmly stating my convictions along the way…And So It Is!!!
