Remember Your Body is Wise
This living
breathing body
always waiting
to greet you
at the door,
always prepared
to give you
the rest you need,
always,
no matter
the long
years away,
still
wanting you,
to come home.

Greetings to all my precious people!!
The Full Snow Moon reached its peak illumination at 8:53 am EST on Wednesday February 12. This February Full Moon appears in the constellation of Leo, the sign of the Lion. According to Lorna Bevan of Hare in the Moon Astrology, we are now caught in the days when timelines jump and things feel mismatched. The roadmap of 2025 is filled with twists and turns and nothing resembling “business as usual” will be showing up on the horizon. The only way forward is through, as we learn to recognize and negotiate the unprecedented inner and outer experiences and phenomena. continue reading

Release to Realign
“To let go is to release the images and emotions, the grudges and fears, the clingings and disappointments of the past that bind our spirit.”

Greetings to all my precious people!!
We are in the post glow of the Full Wolf Moon—the time when the bright illumination of the Sun’s reflection on the moon is already waning, but the night sky is still filled with light. And yet, we feel the stirrings of things we have kept in the dark, hidden away. While the monthly Full Moons signify peak moments of a rising tide, they also offer the opportunity to glimpse into the recesses of our heart, soul and psyche. We can tenderly peek into the sacred nooks where our dreams, fears and lived experiences reside. But especially now, with the placement of Cancer, Mars and the Moon, we might find a bit more congestion and clutter than we imagined. continue reading
