Earthy Full Moon

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.

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.”
