Tarot reading for April 2025: The expansion and contraction of growth

Hey, Soothers! Here’s my Tarot reading for the month of April 2025, for all. 

Feels like an understatement to say that growth isn’t always easy—it expands us, stretches us, and sometimes contracts us before we bloom again. 

But this month's Tarot reading for April wants us to remember this: nature moves in rhythms—trees shed their leaves before budding anew, the ocean tides pull back before surging forward, and the moon wanes before it waxes. 

Just like the natural world, we, too, grow in cycles of expansion and contraction. There are seasons of stretching beyond our comfort zones and seasons of retreat, rest, and integration. Trust that both are necessary.

This collective reading reminds us to embrace the sweetness of the present moment, trust that our spirit guides are always near, and move at the pace our soul needs while we go through whatever cycle is occuring. 

There’s no rush. Let life unfold in divine timing. Center yourself as the expansion or contraction (or both!) occur.
