You can harness the energy of the April Moon by using essential oils, gemstones and invoking Goddess Venus.
This month's moon is often referred to as the Seed Moon. The energies around this moon are ones of fertility, growth and inner wisdom. We are encouraged to be bold at this time; to take action.
Gems to enhance this moon's energy include beauties like Amethyst, Carnelian and Citrine. These three gems are all considered to have red and orange chakra energy, which governs our sexuality and primal drives. So if you're looking for a wild time or just need a bit of motivation, slip one of these into your pocket.
Goddess Venus
Venus is the Roman Goddess of love, passion, romance and sexuality. Again, she governs the red root chakra. The sexual energy of this Goddess doesn't necessarily mean sex only. It also means creativity, self-expression and passion for anything. So if you need a boost here, you can say a simple prayer to Venus. Or better yet, make a little doll and slip it in your pocket.
Essential Oils
Oils can be used most easily in a diffuser. Some can be added in small quantities to baths, and others can be used in soap and candle making. Do some research before you try them in other ways aside from diffusers, as some are corrosive and can cause skin irritation. The following oils will help you connect with your unconscious mind and set the intention of action, fertility and creativity:
- ylang-ylang,
- tangerine
- bergamot
- vanilla
- sandalwood
- patchouli
- black pepper
- ginger

Another great way to connect with the Seed Moon is to write down a list of some of the things you've been wanting or meaning to do. Don't make the list too long - it needs to be do-able! If you have questions about how to perform a Goddess or Moon ritual, please use the "contact me" button.
