The Need for Solace
“I wish grace and healing were more abracadabra kind of things.”
~~ Anne Lamott
Greetings to all my precious people!!
The last of the Super Moons in 2024 rises this week. The Full Beaver Moon will rise on Friday November 15 at 4:28 p.m. EST, though it is best seen in its fullness at moonrise on Saturday, November 16. That will also coincide with the peak of the annual Leonid meteor shower. It is the last of four consecutive Super Moons that include August Blue Moon, September Harvest Moon and October Hunter Moon. Super Moons occur at perigee: the point when the Moon’s orbit is closest to Earth and so the Moon appears a little brighter and larger than an average Full Moon. continue reading
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
What do you recognize as Sacred?
“How can I begin anything new with all of yesterday in me?”
~~ Leonard Cohen
Greetings to all my precious people!!
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
The Magic of the Mess
“Until you make the unconscious conscious,
it will direct your life and you will call it fate”
~~~ Carl Gustav Jung
Greetings to all my precious people!!
The sacred connection between the innate body-mind intelligence continues to beckon as we enter the transitional shifts of the Autumn season. With the end of October on the horizon, the celebration of Samhain (SOW-wen) will highlight the dates of October 31st and November 1st. Recognized as the most important holiday of the ancient Celtic calendar, Samhain marks the end of Summer and the midway point between the Autumnal Equinox and the Winter Solstice. 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
Greetings to all my precious people!!
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
