On the Trail of the Wild Feminine
Nancy Lankston
Full moon in earthy Capricorn.
The energy of the ancient grandmothers is strong.
Where are you headed?
Is that where you truly wish to go?
Will a slight change in direction help you reach your desired destination?
Do so now.
Ask Grandmother Moon to light your way.

“What is acted out on the female body parallels the larger practices of domination, fragmentation, and conquest against the earth body, which is being polluted, strip-mined, deforested, and cut up into parcels of private property. Equally, this pattern points to the fragmentation of the psyche, which ultimately underlies and enables all of this damage.”

And The Men Still Burn Her
New moon in Taurus tomorrow.
Feel the shift?
Something new is on the horizon.
Ground and breathe.
Be patient and watch.
Wait for it to take form.

We are in the cauldron now.
Last night’s total lunar eclipse as the moon went full in the sign of Earth Priestess Virgo has all of our energies are stirred up and a bit WILD.
Buckle up, breathe and try not to do anything rash.
For the next few weeks, we will be in the eclipse cauldron. This is a perfect time to do shadow work and learn to love those parts of you that are problematic, embarrassing, less than ideal.
New moon in airy Aquarius, the visionary. Mercury and Pluto are also in Aquarius, stirring things up and bringing our shadows into the light.
Aquarius is all about creating unity for all beings here on Earth, despite our differences. Aquarius reminds us of our shared humanity.

Today also marks the beginning of the Chinese and Tibetan year of the wood snake.
Yin wood snake represents the embodied Divine Feminine who knows her worth, her power and her magic. Snake is deeply connected to Mama Earth. She moves intuitively, quietly and intentionally through the world.
Snake will observe all before making a decisive strike at the right moment. She is always evolving – shedding old skins for new ways of being.
Earthy new moon in Capricorn. And a new year is on the horizon.
Make room for deep inner reflection. Consider what has been in the past, then let it go with love and gratitude.
It’s time to lay the foundation for a new chapter in your story. What do you want to create going forward?

Full moon in earthy Taurus and things are crazy! Everything is stirred up and nothing is as it seems.
Ground, ground, ground.
Get outside and walk, sit or lie on the Earth.
Breathe and ground.

And the bees have a message for us:
Hush now. The wounds run deep,
but the bees are full of knowing.
They know the hive of your heart,
each crooked curled chamber
each hopeful hidden curve,
each darkened holding cell.
They have come with wings and song and pollen.
They have come to harvest each mistake
each broken vessel, to touch the jagged edges
of betrayal and lost chances,
to collect your failures one by one,
making honey from the bitter
making music in the void
making wings where there were wounds.
Hush now. Sleep well.
The night is alive with forgiveness
and your heart is a hive
made for honey made for love.
