Cultivate Your Gifts of Presence
“Learn the alchemy true human beings know.
The moment you accept what troubles you’ve been given,
the door will open.”
~~ Rumi
Greetings to all my precious people!
These early days of November are unusually warm and sunny, and the tree leaves are scattered along the ground, creating a multi-colored tapestry of Nature. We are in a liminal space—an energetic void—as the constellations of the Universe shift in their trajectory. Pluto is moving out of Capricorn after 15 years of chaos, trouble, and turmoil, and we are now entering Aquarius for the next 20 years. It is no wonder that we are all feeling a bit detached and unanchored, for this is a time of radical transformation whether we like it or not. Instead of feeling frustrated or impatient, choose to be fully present in these moments, for we are being shaped and seeded for recalibration on many levels. continue reading

We are now in the month November, with the New Moon phase in Scorpio reminding us to be serious and forthright about every aspect of our Self. If you are feeling a bit unbalanced or unsteady as we march towards the end of this year, recognize this as a recalibration of sorts, and remember to breathe deeply and hold your center. This is part of the sacred pattern in the Universe; transformation is occurring on multiple levels. continue reading

Awaken To Your Healing Gifts
“The body is a sacred garment. It’s your first and last garment;
it is what you enter life in and what you depart life with,
and it should be treated with honor.”
~~ Martha Graham

The Full Moon in Aries, also referred to as The Hunter’s Moon, peaked on Thursday, October 17 at 7:26 am on the East Coast. Aries is known as the warrior of the zodiac. Ruled by the fire element and the planet Mars, Aries reminds us that we are each here on a mission that is personal and unique. The warrior spirit of the Full Moon in Aries asks us to focus on ourselves and our soul’s purpose. Aries delivers courage and motivation to align with the life your soul desires, releasing habits, situations, and relationships that obstruct growth and evolution. We are encouraged to take action, stand up and fight for what we believe in, and overcome any obstacles in the way of our dreams. continue reading
The Courage to Surrender
“Your pain is the breaking of the shell that encloses your understanding.
Even as the stone of the fruit must break, that its heart may stand in the sun,
so must you know pain.”
~~ Khalil Gibran

And yet… and still: there is so much chaos, so much disharmony. continue reading
