Hi my name is April. Growing up having to explain why my name is April and my birthday is the last day of April has been a Non-Stop conversation.
I was born April 30th 1976. Growing up being different because I had a different name, and I also had very red hair, was a challenge. So to say that there was no incognito mode for me is the truth. Still to this day I cannot hide if I wanted to.
So the name April has several meanings one of them being open, powerful and complete. But growing up I felt like my name made me different. It has no nickname and people didn’t know many Aprils.
Included in all those personality descriptions I am also a Taurus. So everything that’s described as a Taurus is also me. Yes stubborn, hot headed, etc. My personality is something not be challenged. My Empath Mother Hen can turn Angry Stubborn Protector Bull in one heartbeat.
So this is my month. I consider this my month for many reasons. One of the reasons is because everybody has to say my name a lot of times in this month. So growing up in the month of April I would be very confused hearing my name all the time, I have officially gotten numb to that now. Also I have a past relationship or two, that told me the month of April every year reminds them of me. So I guess it’s kind of a karmic thing if you know me and have done me wrong. Because now for the rest of your life you’ll associate this month with me!
Also having a different name I was very careful naming my own children to not have any of the issues I did Growing Up. This is why I have a daughter named Lillian, who can change her name as she grows and is just a beautiful old-fashioned name. Also I have a son named Corbin spelled the way it sounds so he doesn’t have to go through life spelling his name, and it was just a unique name I had yet to hear when he was born, taken from the movie The Fifth Element.
So counting down to my birthday , I hope everyone that’s done me wrong or is doing me wrong feels my presence and energy every time they have to say or write my name. It’s almost like ‘that’s right bitch, say my name!’, and I mean that the nicest way.
I will be 47 this year, and have dealt with my name all of those years. So turning it around now knowing how people have to write and say my name that may not particularly like me just means I was given the right name.
I am thankful now that my name is April, it’s Unique, it’s beautiful and it means spring! So carry on with your day and I know you will now remember me at least a few times when you write the month April or hear the name April.
And on the last day of the month that just happens to be my birthday, I get to go out with a bang and celebrate another year on this Earth, using my energy for positive inspiring things.
Until Later… βπ» π
