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 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.”

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.

Art: High Tide by Cindy Thornton
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

New moon in earthy Virgo, sign of the earth priestess.
Virgo is all about honoring the rhythms and cycles and seasons of this beautiful planet.
As Summer is drawing to a close in the northern hemisphere, this is the perfect time to perform a simple ritual in honor of the seasons.
Light a candle, say a prayer or make an offering to Mama Earth. Express your gratitude for our beautiful, sacred planet and its seasons.

The way the field
holds the shadow of the cottonwood,
this is how life holds me.
Holds me, no matter my shape.
Holds me with no effort.
Holds my darkness and knows it
as weightless, as transient,
as something that will shift,
disappear, return, and shift again.
It never says no to me.
I am still learning to trust life, to trust
no matter how I show up, I will be held.
Trust that my life is not a problem.
Trust that as much as I am the shadow,
I am also the field.

Full moon in airy Aquarius and change is in the air. Now is a great time to think about what you would like to shift or change about your life. Consider all your options – even the wild and whimsical ones.
We are still in a state of flux, so don’t make final plans yet – simply consider your options.
