After drawing the cards, I record an audio podcast about the collective energy for the next month. And I type in notes about the audio reading into the body of the post. The text below is NOT a transcript.
Hello and Welcome Souls, to the Energy Reading for April 2025. I used Kyle Gray’s “22 Archangel Oracle Cards” and Sandy Humby’s “Rose Alchemy Oracle Set.” We drew the Archangel of Hope from the Archangel cards!
Sorry for the croaky voice while doing the audio.
Have Hope
Archangel Hope, the twin flame of Archangel Gabriel, brings you hope, new opportunities, inspiration, gifts and happiness.
Hope is expecting your desire to eventuate. That is why it is powerful.
When you say “I have hope” you are affirming trust or faith in something.
When you align yourself with or consciously tap into the Unified Field of Creation or Source, you can have belief that anything is possible.
“I hope” said from doubt as wishful thinking, but thinking that something is not possible or not likely to happen is not powerful.
Human hope should be reasonable and tempered with right action.
Hope shouldn’t come from anger in the form of hoping for retribution. If it does, it is not only vengeance from bitterness and resentment, even maybe from hatred; but it is harming you. Your feeling of a harmful hope will obsess you and drain your energy that would be better invested on justice. Justice doesn’t mean punishing a person, but putting things right.
Hope is a wish or a want, but can be more than this. Hope is a feeling of expectation. You can say, “I trust” if saying “I hope” is not strong enough. Use whichever has power for you. “I hope” is fine to say if you say it with confidence or belief.
But some hopes don’t stick to timelines. For example, you may think “I hope that I win the Lottery,” and to your surprise you don’t. What can help is to enlarge or elaborate your hope to connect to more opportunities.
Why not try thinking or saying, “I trust that my needs are met,” when visualizing your numbers in the lottery? Whether you want to retire from work or get the money to go on a restful holiday, or win a big prize in the lottery, concentrate on the underlying desire, which is for your needs (for good physical, mental, social, virtual and spiritual health) to be met!
If a hope doesn’t eventuate when you would like it to, that may not mean that it will never happen. If you feel let down by a hope not manifesting, make a point of focusing on things that make you happy to bring your energy levels up. Or you could go for a walk or do some stretches or exercising, while thinking about what you are grateful for.
To be comfortable with trusting or hoping for something, Archangel Hope says that you may need to retrieve lost or unused parts of yourself.
If you’ve been through difficulties or trauma you may have subconsciously separated yourself from some of your innate talents or skills or even from your natural desires. When you identify and integrate your unique traits, talents, and desires, and have self-belief, you will feel whole.
You may prefer to say, “I have hope”, or “I believe” or “I trust,” rather than “I hope.” Make your declaration in the present, so don’t use “will,“ for example, don’t say “I trust that I will retire in two years time.” Instead, “I trust that I am retired in 2027” has more power.
For example, “I trust that humanity lives in peace with all needs met and Earth supported.”
Lee Harris has a wonderful Medicine Mantra series, which includes a visualization and inspiration to re-claim lost parts of yourself. You may have become fragmented through trauma or difficulties. Now is the time to claim those parts to recreate yourself as a powerful whole - for self-love and self-management.

When you consciously align yourself with Archangel Hope, you will unlock a previously hidden doorway to something special, that offers you a cosmic gift.
With the strength of positive, life-affirming thoughts and the use of your skills, abilities, and wisdom in meeting your interests and fulfilling your goals and desires, unfurling around you, authentic reclamation of your power helps you to have hope.
Let go off unhelpful energies
The R4 Red Rose card from the “Rose Alchemy Oracle Set” is about the power of self-love to let go of anger, frustration, resentments, and disappointments.
As you travel or evolve from letting go off small annoyances to not easily getting annoyed to releasing bigger frustrations, you are loving yourself. And this self-love powers up your clarity to fulfil your goals and have your needs met.
It’s important to have energy free flowing within your body cells and around you. When heavy energy lodges within an internal part of you, it becomes a dense ball of energy that slows down the functioning of that part of you.
Stuck energy coming from fear, anger, and resentment can be quite damaging. Stress from holding onto resentments and grudges or onto anger is the number one block to good physical health.
So, let it go. If you need to practice, go for it, knowing that practice makes progress. The more you consciously let go, the easier it will become to do so.
If you find it hard to do let go of resentments because the other party doesn’t know how something impacted you, try to talk to them telepathically. Imagine yourself facing the person and explaining to them clearly, politely, and concisely what happened from your point of view and how it upset you.
Lee Harris has a Medicine Mantra to release energies that don’t belong to you. Do you like feeling upset, frustrated, angry, scared, or disappointed? Of course you don’t. But these feelings likely arose from your thoughts, thoughts about what’s fair or just or reasonable.
Instead of allowing other people’s voices or past happenings dictate your hurt feelings arising from the thought “That shouldn’t have happened, it’s not fair,” change your thought to something like “It happened, I don’t like it, but I release how I feel about it so that I can move on with right action.”
Rose card R4 asks you to send love to yourself and to others and to consciously let go off resentments. It may be hard to do for some things, but you CAN do it. Try things out to see what works for you. That may be a simple affirmation like, “I let go of resentments” or “Justice will prevail” (without intending harm) or daily energy work such as listening to Lee Harris’ Medicine Mantras.
The NLP Swish technique
Besides the NLP technique of speaking to someone who upset or hurt you, you might like to try the “Swish” NLP technique.
This is where you imagine what is current in your life that is undesirable as if it is a movie playing out on a screen. Then you visualize a small picture of what you want playing in the lower right-hand corner.
For example, on the movie screen you see yourself going to work every day. In the corner you see a tiny, wonderful picture of you at home every day, loving what you are doing! Spend some time on these two images. Paint the picture of what you want in detail and use sounds and other sensory information if you want to.
Then - literally raise your physical hand and place it on the corner of the screen over your desirable picture. In one powerful swish, you switch the pictures. Swish - place what you want into the centre of the screen until it is large as life. At the same time, to your delight, see the image of what you don’t want switched to the lower corner of the movie screen as a small picture.
Then watch it shrink and disappear! You’ve swapped out what you don’t want for what you want - and for what your hope for or trust in.
A Course in Alchemy
Jim Self runs an excellent, VERY helpful course, via an e-book, on Alchemy. Alchemy is about transformation - “transforming lead into gold” to use a metaphor.
He teaches that Roses, as symbols of beauty and love, are enriching images and archetypes (primordial images with meaning) that can be used to keep in positive energies and deflect unhelpful energies.
A Course in Mastering Alchemy
Jim recommends that you ground yourself to Earth via imagining an electro-magnetic cord from your tail-bone deep into the core of Mother Earth / Gaia. See it as a sliver cord with a spiral of white light around it dropping into Earth. The silver takes away unhelpful thoughts and the white spiral removes unhelpful feelings or emotions. After imagining your grounding cord or cable reaching the centre of the Earth, say “Activate” or “Turn on”. It will siphon off unresourceful thoughts and feelings throughout the day.
You can also imaging gifting people throughout your day a red rose or any other coloured rose. The power of the rose alchemy is that it will switch your mindset to a supportive one of flow. This comes from the symbol of the rose as majestic or invoking joy and love. If you’re a florist, surrounded by beautiful roses, you might feel a sense of joy, peace, and happiness.
Genuinely gifting YOURSELF and others ROSES will help soften and illuminate a situation or mold it to an outcome beneficial for you. The magic of love and connection from the roses helps you relax and be positive, for the good of all.
Jim Self describes a wonderful technique for setting up your personal Light Field. You first imagine a rose (of any color) at arm’s length from you - to the left, the right, below, above, and in front and behind. Then you draw a line of pure white light between pairs of roses.
Then imagine diamond white light from God or Source pouring down upon you like a waterfall. And have this light fill up the panes of the rose-connected shape surrounding you!
You end up with a diamond shaped (octahedral) field of luminescent white Source light, with 8 panels. This is your original Light Field. When your Soul birthed, it came from your Soul Chakra just above your head and projected or emitted this Energy field from your heart.
And this energy field created your other Chakras or Energy Centers, your Aura (i.e. layers of energy), your Merkabah, and other energy fields. I have drawn a diagram to try to illustrate some of this.
Activating your Merkabah or Chariot of Light
There is a lot more than what we think we see or perceive or think there is!
Imagine the two tetrahedrons of your Diamond Energy Field merging so that the top one moves down, pointing upward, with its apex placed at the top of your head and its base 2/3 of the way along your body.
The other tetrahedron “moves up” with its apex at your feet and its base about 1/3 of the way along your body.
The Merkabah (chariot of light, according to Jewish mysticism) is actually spinning. It is two counter-rotating pyramids, each spinning in the same direction when seen from its origin point, but when facing each other they appear to be spinning in opposite directions.
It is through the Merkabah, the union of body, spirit, and light, that we can astral travel to other dimensions at light speed. The Merkabah, with its six-pointed star shape is sometimes called the Star of David or the Star Tetrahedron.
When the energy of each tetrahedron is equal, the motion of the Merkaba is continual and is self-clearing and self-balancing. For example, this means balance between masculinity and femininity, between materialism and simplicity, and between the physical and the spiritual.
However, over aeons of time, the spinning of our personal Merkabah fields decreased, leading to imbalances.
An activated Merkabah balances your energy, aligns you with your true purpose and helps protect you. To activate your personal Merkabah, try visualizing it as above and seeing the tetrahedrons spinning, the top one clockwise and the bottom one counter-clockwise. Then say “Activate” when you sense that you’ve created your Star Tetrahedron around you. Imagine it around you as you go through your day.
You can call upon Archangel Metatron to help you activate your Merkabah. There is a good video below to help you activate your Merkabah / Merkaba.
We are here in human form to experience the full range of being human. BUT, you are more than just physical. Archangel Hope will help you be positive and work toward your goals. Releasing stuck energy and resentments will clear your energy field.
Visualizing white light around you, to clear your energy field and retain pure helpful energy helps you get through the day.
And activating your Merkabah will strengthen your energy field and recreate balance of all things.
Let hope become trust. Let your Light shine. Trust yourself as Divine Source.
