Moon 9: Women at the Wheel

Self-love opens the door...

We are the manifestation of Divine Love. The seed of our being does not require “outside” love in order for it to crack open and grow. Seeds crack open because they love themselves—knowing who they are, where they came from, and their purpose.

Self-love weaves magic and honors the Divine of all life. As feminine and masculine energies on our world continue to attract and secure balance, look to the many women at the wheel of the collective-balancing-act for inspiration; through their courage they model a self-love that brings about profound transformation and deep healing. They are willingly cracking open and boldly emerging in an environment that is challenging all expressions of life in this space/time.

Moon 8: Circle of Sustenance

The Seed is the plan...

Within us lies an ancestral dreaming of all life—a coded language guiding the unfolding of phases, the emergence of characteristics. The Seed is in service to life as an energy bonding to itself and experiencing itself. As Seeds, we are all awaiting the next incarnation as the decay of our culture and world structures enjoys its feast and compost works it slow resurrection. We are in service to a circle of sustenance—the Source within the seeds all life is created from.

The total solar eclipse and sacred marriage at this New Moon in Cancer—the Divine nurturing parents—offers a powerful portal of love that is wide open to us now. Find ways to ceremonially celebrate this alignment of Sun/Moon/Earth to support you in your service work. Also, revisit your journaling during the 2nd Lunation in Capricorn (an annular solar eclipse) as a guide to what’s up now.

Moon 7: Creative Spin

Working in the negative space of the piece of art that is life...

From the position and vantage point of the bridge of in-between we eagerly watch as magic arrives to assist us in revealing what was previously invisible.

If we are satiated from our Taurean love-fest, and more grounded amidst the chaos, we now have the energy to work with a creative spin, a crazy wisdom, that will bring the energies of the earth below to mingle and marry with the energies of sky above. We are conductors whose focus on the elements and rhythms brings a harmonious new song to life. This song fleshes out skeleton woman, her new form emerging—she is, we are, being made sweet again, fragrant, fresh and wild. Let us, in fun, play as we embrace the mystery of magic.

Moon 6: Spokes of Community

Standing on the bridge...

Having made our commitment to a purpose we feel passionate about, we now find ourselves on the bridge of in-between, a place of highly-charged potential. There is a tension of creation in this place that is wanting to burst forth, that has a deep love for life, yet the time for bursting is not quite here. We must first engage in the Taurean art of receivership, opening our arms to embrace the gifts of life and love being offered, enjoying each moment to its fullest at a leisurely pace that allows for complete absorption.

Then, from this place of relaxation and pleasure, we can reach out as spokes of community and touch others—artistically creating a unified strength that will grace our next journey with love and abundance.

Moon 5: Inner Circles

The sacred space within...

We’ve journeyed far and reached “home.” Here and now is the occasion for us to make a commitment to a purpose we feel passionate about. And the place for this commitment to begin is the inner circles of our Mother place—the point of creation.

Supported by the courageous and decisive energy of Aries, we can evoke rapid growth in the territory of our commitment, knowing without a doubt what we want, who we are and how to proceed. Trust in yourself as the Aries sacred warriors stand guard, protecting the birthing space of your commitment.

Moon 4: Reinvent Self

Ahh...home at last...!!

The fire of our desire to remember Wholeness has brought resurrection—we are reinventing our selves and our world, and are on the brink of the infinite. Now is when we must seed the healing power of forgiveness—forgiveness of Self and the Old Way that is dying. Feel, hear, taste this power of spirit in action.

Transform doubt and concern about the mystery before us using the gentle, loving, selfless dedication and service to all life that Pisces, the master nurturer, brings to this lunation. Breathe deeply, knowing we are home, safe, protected. Trust that it is so.

Moon 3: Circle of Life

We are returning home...

There is great comfort in the circle of life that surrounds and is within us. For we are the circle. Deep inside we know that we will always be able to return home simply because we are already there. We only need open our eyes to see it, our hearts to feel it.

This lunation’s entry point offers a notable connection to Divine Spirit—home—through the tribe of Aquaria (Mercury, Moon, Sun, Chiron, Neptune)—visionaries and explorers who welcome change. Close by are the empathic Pisceans (Venus, Jupiter, Uranus) who keep the flow going by way of universal love, dreams of good fortune, and as agents of authentic change.

Kindness is essential now as we travel the road of rising up from the decay. For, as Cayelin Castell says, “kindness has the power to facilitate radical life changing experiences at a deep cellular level.” Trust in this kindness...

Moon 2: Turn it Around!

“Home” is calling to us...

As the decay of our culture and world structures intensifies, we are being given an incredible opportunity to turn it around and see the seed that is sprouting inside the decay. No longer is focus on the decay necessary—it is irreversible and following the laws of nature. However, the seed sprouting in the decay needs our attention as we enter this cycle so that the life it is extending is acknowledged and supported.

Regarding the annular solar eclipse, according to Cayelin Castell, “This Capricorn New Moon eclipse is accelerating the changes associated with the structures of this reality connected to the Wise Ones...who know how to act in accordance with the laws of this world and live in balance with the Earth... It is imperative we begin to restore and then maintain balance and harmony with the Earth and each other as these eclipse energies accelerate what is unfolding even if no one else around us is joining the effort.”

Moon 13/1: Meeting at the Crossroads & The Great Round

In the end was the beginning...

We have now met at the crossroads of our journey on the great round - our Mother Earth. The solar cycle is nearing its end at the winter solstice, with the increasing light then before us. This lunation is the end and beginning of the 13 New Moons cycle. Beginnings...endings...one in the same.

The Sun, Moon and Venus all begin this lunation in Sagittarius, suggesting that this cycle will lead us on a great exploration of the new way. This Sagittarian energy encourages us to search for the truth of the new world, to be willing to go where no one has gone before, to expand ourselves physically, mentally, emotionally. With this energy we can happily quest this new way, for the Sagittarian fire warms our soul and lights the path before us.
