Virgo Dark Moon

25.08.2014 in moon&sky

virgo06_X385I have been seeing, feeling and hearing from a lot of folk that the experience of late has been a bit bumpy at times. Computers glitching, websites not functioning or not found, and generally a feeling of being a bit on edge or fuddled. For some there’s the feeling of being blocked or stalled or held back. Un-fun. Others are feeling tired, low on energy. Some are noticing old fears and worries are rising and there’s a feeling of being down, lost, or just not being able to cope. “I just don’t feel like it” or “I just don’t wanna” is part of the energy being expressed recently. Yup, all this reflects some strong energetics of this time.

 

There’s a lot going on (and a lot of ‘exacts’ today). Yes, there’s some in-tense-city in the cosmos; things may feel a bit challenging at times. Mars conjuncts Saturn in Scorpio today. Insistent Mars and immovable Saturn. Yes, Mars can be aggressive and Saturn can slow things down so be patient, with yourself and with the outside world too. Heed the call to to slow down. And remember, Scorpio draws attention to the dark and the deep. What purr-fect timing. :)

 

Phoenix_byChibi_VioletEDWelcome the new Moon, Dark today (exact at 0713pdt).

 

This a healing Virgo new Moon and the beginning of the cycle of the Water Phoenix.

Earth for grounding.

Water Phoenix  for sensitivity, rebirth and the new.

 

Ah, yes, time to quiet the noise and return to the peace within.

 

Time to release and surrender to the here and now moment.
Time to return to the inner stillness in the center of the void.
Time to breathe in to the deep Earth ground of you.

 

Time now to feel the spaciousness and loving support of that place within.
Feel yourself well and gently held as if floating in the warmest of calm seas.

 

Move slowly and gently with yourself. Take this time to nourish your body and spirit. Let go of whatever needs to be released in order to provide this nurturing time for yourself.

 

Phoenix_iceOver the next few days as the Moon light appears, I invite you to wonder about new healing ways you might draw to yourself this cycle. (We will have support later in the week from a Grand Cross (Juno-Vesta-Saturn-Chiron) with all planets in Water). And considering Mars-Saturn, what innovations might you call to you to bring balance, find center, or integrate the energies of insistency (Mars) and immovability (Saturn).

 

What is it you wish to bring into being? What would like to be reborn like the Phoenix? Wonder…

 

I invite you to choose/ create for yourself a new kind of ‘energetic marker’ for this cycle. Something that will, as always,

Waning Moon

17.08.2014 in moon&sky

140817_LastQ x385Greetings of the Waning Moon (exact at 0536 pdt)

 

Here the Moon rose and set early this day. Moon half lit and waning.

 

During the Super Moon I imagine that your worlds have been full, and the Full Moon energies have moved you along swimmingly.

 

Now the Moon is half lit and waning.

 

Time to pause, to slow, to reflect and to re-balance.

 

What has filled you this Super Moon? Slow down and reflect on what has drawn your attention. What is engaging your energy, your head, heart and hands? What has been harvested?

 

It is time to ponder.

 

Sit silently and breathe refreshingly deep and make space for this inquiry. Notice what answers arise.

 

Be gentle and compassionate in your inquiry. Feel into the grace of you and appreciate what is. Let go of old stories and beliefs the mind can spin.

 

Draw on the energy of Sun, Venus and Jupiter, all in Leo, powering us with courage, kindness and generosity. Gift yourself with all of this.!

 

Yes, it is a cleansing & nourishing time for mind, body, heart and spirit.

 

Breathe in and out a Lightness of Being. Move slow, take rest. It is time again to prepare for Moon dark and new birth. Time to curl up with the Heart Truth of you and sink into to deep, nourishing, inner wisdom.

 

In the stillness, in the center, balance, wholeness, rest.

 

Nurture your Nature

Full Super Moon

10.08.2014 in moon&sky

140810_SuperMoonx385Greetings of  a powerful Full Aquarius Moon! (exact 1109 pdt)

 

As I look out at my meadow, what has not been cut lies flattened from resting Deer and the sauntering paw of Bear. Figs are ripe juicy and sweet. Mmm…

 

It is the day of the Full Moon, the second of three super moons in a row, and this one bringing the highest tides as it occurs within the hour of perigee (Moon’s closest pass of Earth). Tides, Moon, emotions full.

 

Much else is messaging us from the skies as well. We are called to wide vision and new discoveries (Sun & Mercury trine Uranus) and to different points of view (sun, moon, mercury). We are called to healing and embracing difference and deeper truths (alliance of Uranus, Chiron and Saturn) and to rise courageously to meet that challenge. And we are called to both let go and embrace and, thereby, open to new ways of being (Saturn in Scorpio squares sun & moon).

 

Yes! There is an intensity under this Moon. The Light is bright; the tides are high; emotions are full. It’s as if this time is super-charged. Yes, some at-tention to cleansing emotions is wise at this time. Embrace feelings; it is a time of surprises and breath throughs. Under this Aquarius moon there is the power to change in lightning moments. What lightning bolt of change will you call in to you? Imagine.

 

Illumination. Increased Insights. Deep Discovery. Amplified energies.

 

Release to the fire whatever you wish to disintegrate.
Celebrate all that you have gathered from Moon dark and
Honor the seeds you have sown in the Earth of you.
Send your thanks, and blessings out to be carried by the winds
Bathe in an illuminated ocean and be caressed by the flowing tides.

Shadow_Photography_byIndiePiex300
And play Dear Ones!
Play with joyful Leo!
Dance with your shadows
under the bright Light of the Moon
in Wonder and awe

 

Yes!

Cross Quarter

07.08.2014 in theme

Mask_wheat+grass_x385Greetings of the “Cross Quarter”!
We are half way between Solstice and Equinox!

 

It is a time to celebrate the Goddess and the gifts of the Earth.(Okay, it’s always time for that but this is one of those special times :))

 

In the North it is now half way between Summer Solstice and Fall Equinox. For some this is Lughnasadh or Lammas (the christianized version of Lugnasadh) which is now celebrated on August 1st or 2nd although the actual cross-quarter is today.

 

wheat20_x300It is the time of early harvest, of bringing in the wheat, of making bread.

It is a is a time to express love and gratitude to earth for her abundance, and for sharing the knowledge gained

 

 

 

In the South it is now half way between Winter Solstice and Spring Equinox.

 

WheatGrass_2010_02_X300It is the time of the quickening, of new beginnings, of first appearance of new green. Imbolc, Brigid’s festival.

It is a time for refreshing for rededication to spirit.

 

 

 

Wherever you may be,

Fuel your heart fire
Pour water with love blessings
Breathe the air deeply
Give thanks to Earth beneath your feet

 

and, as always,

 

Nuture your Nature

1st Q & Cross Quarter Soon

03.08.2014 in moon&sky

140803_1sQcompile2wTxt_X385Greetings of the 1st Quarter Moon – and solar cross quarter soon!

 

Have you felt the energy rising and Leo’s fire too?

 

It is an active, fire-y time and, of course, there is much masculine energy about. Draw in the strengths it brings: generosity, focus, productivity, loyalty, steadfastness. Let these support the feminine spirit . Yes! It is time to be seen and heard.

 

All planets are direct now (for the first month this year!). Moon is in Scorpio as is Mars, and with Sun and Jupiter in Leo, it’s a potent time. An alchemical time (nb: alchemy is highest expression of Scorpio ;)).

 

Feel the opening. Feel the increase in flow. Invite in expansiveness and fill yourself with Light just as the Moon waxes hir light.

 

The waxing moon is now half lit (exact at 1750 pdt). Tomorrow Neptune reminds us that we can allow momentum to take as forward. Allow the energy of the waxing moon to move you on. Let the energetic river flow. Trust that the river will take each of us where we need to be.

 

Welcome Moon’s reminder to pause in the waxing light-dark moment. Breathe in this spacious, expansive time. Allow both the waters (scorpio) and the fires (leo) to dance within.

 

Feel the sensual waters of Moon and Scorpio. Invite in Water’s buoyant support, gentle movement, and transforming powers. Release any over-intensity or static energy so that your forward movement is clear and free.

 

In so doing, heed also Scorpio’s call to connect directly to life force source energy. Connect and receive new ways of supporting this mission. Take a moment to anchor in source expressions and connections.

 

lughnasadh-04a-imgIn 4 days time we will be at the ‘cross-quarter’* – half way between Solstice and Equinox. Between Summer & Fall in the North; between Winter and Spring in the South.

 

In both the North and South it is time for celebrating the Goddess with thanks-giving for first harvest and the gathering of wheat (north); and for the seeds of beginnings (South).

 

It is a time for rededication to Spirit.

 

I invite you to take some time this day (August 7) to celebrate wherever you are.

 

Fuel heart fire;

Pour water blessings with love;

Breathe deeply of air as if it was your first breathe;

Embrace the land beneath you with your grace; and

Receive all of the elemental blessings in return.

Become present in the moment to your connection with all of life.

 

Do this Dear Ones in honor of Life and the greatest good, and, in so doing, as always,

 

Nurture your Nature
WisdomWild

Fiona

 

* In the North this was celebrated as Lughnassadh, later as Lammas (Christianized) celebrated August 1st or August 2nd. But the actual midpoint between Solstice & Equinox is Aug 7th. In the South this is the time of Brighid, a time of new beginnings.\
