According to www.history.com (Mainstream media),
The practise of Jesters, jokes and playing pranks on our friends, family and colleagues has been ongoing since the 1500's.

It's said, that when France decided to change from the Julian Calendar to the Gregorian calendar in 1582 (which we know today) it left many of the general public oblivious to the difference in the days.
Not knowing the exact events that lead up to naming the day, Historians speculate that the misalignment of dates occurred shortly after Pope Gregory XIII decided to alter the calendar.
This meant, that those without a calendar, they weren't fully aware that their days and dates would change significantly.

This change would have led to massive changes in agricultural farming, schooling, rituals and practices led by the moon.
According to the Julian calendar, the beginning of the year, the Spring equinox would begin on April 1st.
The Gregorian calendar decided to confuse everybody by beginning the year at January 1st.
That's a huge difference!
Just like in today's society,
some are aware of significant local and national events, while others are not. Back in 1582 when they officially changed the calendar, many remained unaffected and ignorant of the change. Others took it upon themselves to ridicule, call out and bully the "unaware," for being guillable and stupid.
And thus, April the 1st was named for those.
Doesn't this story tell us alot about how society is still very similar to today, this tells me that as Humans, we haven't really changed. After reading popular accounts from past historical events, it seems there are those that choose not to pay attention to surrounding events at all, and remain in their "bubble" to carry on with their lives regardless.

Today, we call these people "The Asleep" or "Sheep."
The revelation of this story by the History channel, also tells me that we are all very quick to ridicule those that don't think the same as us.
I decided to investigate this spiritually and ask for answers on why there is a huge gap between those that are consciously awakened to positive and negative threats to humanity, societal changes, technology, economic issues etc....and those that are not.

I cannot speak for every human being on this planet, but here's what I received.
We all come to Earth, this 3d realm with different purposes, goals and aims. Each of us Human beings have so many complexities, that for all 7 billion of us to believe the same thing would be counterproductive to the advancement of our race.
Each of us has a different history dating back millennia. Each of us has experienced different solar systems, different planets, different races, different galaxies and even different universes. Our experiences shape who we are today. Some of us arrive on Earth as old souls, wise and nurturing. Others arrive with zero knowledge of who they are or why they're here and it may take them a Human lifetime to figure that out.
We are all different.
So what does this all mean?
What is April Fools day really reminding us?
Based on this account from The History Channel, it's reminding us that
We are all one.

Whilst there are those completely unaware and unaffected of potentially threatening events, or significant events that do and should affect us all, it's imperative we remember that they are not on the same journey as us.
Their priorities are different to ours.
We MUST protect them,
inform them, keep them upto date, support them, be kind and be humble.
Those not at the same soul evolutionary level are not "lesser" or "stupid" or "thick."
They are the same and deserve a full, human life to complete their tasks, and to enable them to ascend, just like we once did.
So, the next time you play a prank on a colleague or friend for April Fools day, take a step back and think about where they could be on their life journey, and show empathy and compassion.
Namaste.
What a great post Sam x

We are all different, we are all one - How very true xx
