Samhain New Moon

Samhain Fire

New moon in watery Scorpio, the sign of the shaman, witch, sorcerer

This is also the time of Samhain – an ancient Celtic holiday in honor of our ancestors and all that has passed. Samhain marks the start of the dark half of the year in the northern hemisphere.

Now is the time to plunge into the depths of self and Soul. Examine and honor what came before and acknowledge your part in it all.

Light a candle and say a prayer for your ancestors who made your life possible.

Potent Full Moon in Aries

I went out into the dark,
the night was soft and full of its usual wonders,
but tonight, I wanted the Moon.

I raised my hand,
thinking I could hold its silver light,
thinking I could keep it close.

But it slipped away, as all wild things do,
leaving only its quiet glow on my palm—
a reminder that some gifts
are not for taking.

Still, I stood in its light,
content to listen,
to feel the world turning,
and to understand
that some beauty is meant only
to guide us home.

New Moon of Balance

New moon in airy Libra, the sign of equanimity and balance. A ring of fire solar eclipse also occurs today.

Buckle up. The pace of change appears to be increasing this moon cycle. Make daily self care a priority so that you can maintain some semblance of balance and tranquility.

Breathe. You can do this.

I’m Slowly Learning

“I’m slowly learning that even if I react, it won’t change anything, it won’t make people suddenly love and respect me, it won’t magically change their minds.

Sometimes it’s better to just let things be, let people go, don’t fight for closure, don’t ask for explanations, don’t chase answers and don’t expect people to understand where you’re coming from.

I’m slowly learning that life is better lived when you don’t center it on what’s happening around you and center it on what’s happening inside you instead.”

High Tide Full Moon

Full moon in watery Pisces with a partial lunar eclipse tonight.

Emotions are at ‘high tide’ right now. Slow your roll and remember to breathe as you consciously focus on whatever emotion surfaces.

The next few days are an extra potent dream time. Take note of your dreams and waking visions. Soul is speaking to you.

You Are A Living Offering

go now with sage in your heart
let your very breath be the smudge stick
that cleanses every dark thought
every shame, every harsh circumstance

you are sweetgrass and pollen
rose hips and hollyhock
a living offering to She who walks
the earth through you

She who stands in the center
of your labyrinth soul
burn hot breathe deep
and become the incense of wild woman
smoke rising from your fingertips
to bless everything you touch
