When we came up with the idea to write articles about each month's mega moon phases, I was thrilled—a glowing space orb filled with the myth of mystery, love, and vindication. I then thought, where to start?</span></p><p style="color: #0e101a; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span data-preserver-spaces="true" style="margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">Firstly, I'd like to welcome you all to The Mystical Moon's very own Moon Watch.

The moon's gravitational pull affects even our Earth's deepest oceans, and as we hold water in 75% of our physical bodies, we too are physically, emotionally, and spiritually affected. You may be thinking, man, oh man, this moon is affecting me! </span></p><p style="color: #0e101a; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span data-preserver-spaces="true" style="margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">Here we will show you how to harness the moon's specific powers in its cyclical phases. We will bring you insight into handling yourself, others, and the waterworks of emotions and releases many moons can bring to you. Healing is divine! Intuition is divine!

It reflects the light of the sun, much like a mirroring effect, to bring the life of Earth lightness through the darkness of the evening. Her power is by no means shy. She empowers a "go for it" energy, abundant with the passion of manifestation. Expect a directing of attention towards a culmination of divine processes and projects, as they are crafted just for you. Think about the things you want to accomplish and trust in your power, as well as the power of the moon, that you are capable of reaching your goals!</span></p><p style="color: #0e101a; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><br /></p><p style="color: #0e101a; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span data-preserver-spaces="true" style="margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><b>What Will a FULL MOON in VIRGO Mean for You? </b></span></p><p style="color: #0e101a; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span data-preserver-spaces="true" style="margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><b><br /></b></span></p><p style="color: #0e101a; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span data-preserver-spaces="true" style="margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">Freshly brimming with eager bursting energies of the full moon, with the help of our harvest queen Virgo, we will channel this boisterous energy into handling our earthly responsibilities. You may feel yourself feeling safe under the bounds of order; expect clarity in discovery and precision when communicating. Virgo is infamous for attracting analytical energy to better suit and more effectively implement manifestations. This will be a keen aspect to tap into for the spark of courageous endeavors the full moon will bring. </span></p><p style="color: #0e101a; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span data-preserver-spaces="true" style="margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">Power to your projects, I say! </span></p><p style="color: #0e101a; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span data-preserver-spaces="true" style="margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">During this phase, you may develop a passion for organizing the chaos that surrounds you, while feeling compelled to come back to the center of order. Consider tolerance and understanding when dealing with others, and know that love and acceptance lie within the hands of your decisions and actions. This will be a great moon to remind you that the imperfections of life ARE the solutions to life, but first, we must trust the universe and look within. </span></p><p style="color: #0e101a; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><b><br /></b></p><p style="color: #0e101a; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span data-preserver-spaces="true" style="margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><b>How Can One Harness the Virgo FULL MOON Power? </b></span></p><p style="color: #0e101a; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><br /></p><p style="color: #0e101a; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span data-preserver-spaces="true" style="margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"> Historically, the term "Virgo" is of Latin descent meaning, "self-contained," which may be interpreted as "self-sufficient."

As the year comes to a close, we are challenged to accept this "new normal" and develop it into a prosperous avenue of transformation. We will be assisted with this challenge through the guiding light of a great Saturn / Jupiter conjunction.<p></p><p>These two planets' enormous strength is encouraging us to bring our talents to their maximum potential in our present lives.</p><p>Saturn has dominion on regulation. It shows us that time is, in fact, of the essence. Time is the process by which we determine our limits and healthy boundaries. Saturn is closely regarded to Cronus, father of Zeus, in astrology and mythology. It is the father planet that invigorates us to align our ducks into their premeditated rows. Within Saturn lies the symbolism of "old father" and "new father," as well as old ways replaced by newer methods. The motion of this conjunction begins a new 200-year cycle of Saturn's direct influence.</p><p>Jupiter is the emblem of luck and prosperity. It encourages innovation and creation to uplift our earthly vibration. Inspires us to achieve the deepest and most surface-level parts of our sequential dreams. Jupiter, being the largest planet in the solar system, symbolizes the strength of the expansion. That is why it is commonplace when Jupiter makes a benign aspect, and it increases prosperity and possessions.</p><p>The celebration in the sky will be taking place Monday the 21st. In numerology, the number 21 is symbolic of success, completion, and the fulfillment of desires. Channel this! Monday is a potent day for divine feminine magick and spellwork (as Monday is the start of the week, symbolizing the moon and the beginning of her lunar cycles). This will be a wonderful universal vantage point for all of us to radiate in the divine feminine energies, allowing it to seep into the everyday realities.</p><p>Let it soak us with the warmth of a newer, kinder, more balanced, and brighter era to come.</p><p>Together, by way of this historical event and marking of a new 200-year cycle entering in the time of Aquarius, the energy will be potent, filled with opportunity and truth to execute those dreams! This occasion should be viewed as an inspiration to lift off our endeavors, knowing that they are grounded by passion, faith, and abundance. If it isn't clear to you yet, the universe is on your side, in your favor and encouraging you every step of your journey. You have done some tremendous soul work this year that will be to your benefit. Take this galactic cosmological event as another token of that faith Mother Gaia and all the forces that have built life build from love and vibrations of healing and acceptance. Any resistance you may feel is not due to external influences but brings attention to your internal turmoil, which can be alleviated through tender love, support, and approval of oneself. You are the best for your soul, and not one other person on this planet can take your place or fill your shoes. Allow the connection of the largely optimist planet Jupiter and Saturn's hard-hitting reality to prove that life may be obstinate and limiting. Still, it is worth the fight to pursue your dreams and be the ultimate blueprint of your soul's design.</p><p>A couple of great energy work ideas for this occasion on December 21, 2020, would be to make a list of self-love affirmations such as:</p><p><br /></p><p></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li>"I am strong. I am independent. I am powerful."</li><li>Work on a self-goal or avenue of expression that you love. Be selfish! And do something special for just you. Because without a healthy you, there won't be happy others!</li><li>Wear citrine or other crystals that align with Jupiter and Saturn and wear colors to honor the planets.</li><li>Make an altar as an offering for the mythological rulers of these planets.</li></ul><p></p><p>If all else fails, wish love, with an optimistic outlook, and prosperity into your life and mean it!</p><p><br /></p><p><b>With love and light from Madison P, Mystical Moon Front Desk Associate</b></p>The Mystical Moonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02565818029371104096noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6502373992114852440.post-36419091726432604362020-09-30T08:03:00.001-04:002020-09-30T08:03:38.235-04:00The Hunter's Full Moon<div class="page" title="Page 1"><div class="section" style="background-color: white;"><div class="layoutArea"><div class="column"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-wfXM2j9bzRQ/X3RztRFmdNI/AAAAAAAABhc/0g8gEJixB-YYuwzIAOK9tbKjZzJ5kLYYwCLcBGAsYHQ/s2048/Untitled%2Bdesign-24.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1152" data-original-width="2048" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-wfXM2j9bzRQ/X3RztRFmdNI/AAAAAAAABhc/0g8gEJixB-YYuwzIAOK9tbKjZzJ5kLYYwCLcBGAsYHQ/s320/Untitled%2Bdesign-24.png" width="320" /></a></div><br /><p><br /></p><p><span style="font-family: verdana;">As you may know, Full Moons are an astronomical opportunity to utilize universal tools to spread love <span style="text-align: left;">and light within our own life circumstances and the lives of those around us.</span></span></p><p><span style="font-family: verdana;">The intense energy that may follow along with the Full Moon is part of the transit formation of how the moon appears to us filled with light. During the Full Moon, the Sun is positioned adjacently from the moon, charging it with a vibrant, luminous essence, lighting up our innermost desires.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: verdana;">Our closest lunar sister is tied to every one of us here on Earth, affecting all and encouraging us to look inward at our deepest, most intimate aspirations.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: verdana;">Each 29 day cycle, the moon graciously allows for us to access her peak form for blissful indulgence in all that serves us - whether it may be basking in the moonlight, recharging our crystals and other metaphysical tools, or meditating on all the harmony that gratifies our existences. The moon is a super vessel for enchantment, and this October, we are honored with not one, but two full moons.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: verdana;">This unique phenom will carry us through the tail end of the year. And what a wild ride 2020 has been!</span></p><p><span style="font-family: verdana;">The first Full Moon of the month appears to us on October 1st in Aries' fiery sign. This Full Moon is known as the "Hunter's Moon" or "Sanguine Moon," meaning it shines brighter for longer, indicating a transition in the seasons guiding us from fall to winter. This special moon has resonated with peoples for centuries, celebrated with feasts and rituals by tribes and cultures globally. Historically, the Sanguine Moon is giving to hunters, making prey, like deer or foxes, more accessible to the eye due to loss of foliage in the brush and longer luminescence of the moonlight, which cuts through the darkness of the night.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: verdana;">During this October's Hunter's Moon will be an opportune time to give gratitude to all avenues in your life that "provide" you with fulfillment. The full moon is stimulating us to enjoy and appreciate all the loving universe gives to life. Additionally, it may be a wonderful window to reconnect with the Earth being thankful for its abundance (and don't forget to charge your crystals!) </span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/--H06iZBMCgY/X3Rzc-qrIdI/AAAAAAAABhA/E7LLpnTkE3MtimSkEwex0zk67vbihSx_ACLcBGAsYHQ/s2048/Untitled%2Bdesign-24.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"></span></a><span style="font-family: verdana;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/--H06iZBMCgY/X3Rzc-qrIdI/AAAAAAAABhA/E7LLpnTkE3MtimSkEwex0zk67vbihSx_ACLcBGAsYHQ/s2048/Untitled%2Bdesign-24.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"></a><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-AeX8dMeAuUA/X3Rzezt6whI/AAAAAAAABhE/86NdIWaTQWcMurpLGCtRWQWTQ-MKxbgEwCLcBGAsYHQ/image.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"></a><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-AeX8dMeAuUA/X3Rzezt6whI/AAAAAAAABhE/86NdIWaTQWcMurpLGCtRWQWTQ-MKxbgEwCLcBGAsYHQ/image.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"></a><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-4at7TFaOwOQ/X3Rzfgn_XpI/AAAAAAAABhI/oFgmXDiPIdIcfG2DcSX0qew28eAJXdAwwCLcBGAsYHQ/image.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div></a></div></div></span></div><span style="font-family: verdana;">Blessings and Light,</span><p></p><p><span style="font-family: verdana;">Laurie</span></p></div></div></div></div>The Mystical Moonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02565818029371104096noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6502373992114852440.post-2348371774885083612019-03-20T08:25:00.002-04:002019-03-20T08:25:54.560-04:00March’s Full Super Moon Ushers In New Beginnings For Everyone!<div style="background-position: 0px 0px; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; caret-color: rgb(102, 102, 102); font-size: 14px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; vertical-align: baseline;">

This month’s Full Moon has many supportive cosmic elements for new beginnings that it’s almost impossible to miss out on this awesome energy. It’s as if Spirit knew we are all burnt out and fried from traveling along the current pathways and have been asking for positive changes to take place in our lives. For many of us who have been feeling this way, it’s as if our prayers have been answered. Well not only have they been answered, but if we were to carefully write down our intentions and map out our plans for the next 6-12 months, we quite possibly will see our desires and intentions manifest before our very own eyes. Here’s an important reminder, it is imperative that we be proactive in our lives with our intentions. To sit back and wait for the gravy trains to roll in is a sure fire way of killing our manifestations before they even take form. If we haven’t achieved something in our lives, chances there are some steps that we must take to put ourselves in vibrational alignment with. This means doing our own soul work and addressing each obstacle that comes our way and doing our very best to dissolve these obstacles as a result of being proactive and healing what needs healing.</span></div>

<span style="color: #20124d; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">March’s Full Moon will take place on Wednesday, March 20th 9:43pm EST and as I mentioned earlier there are quite a few supportive cosmic events that assist with creating new beginnings. What are the cosmic influences? How about these? Within a couple of day’s time we will be encountering; a Full Moon in Libra at 0 degrees, a Super Moon, Spring Equinox and Sun sign in Aries!</span></div>

<span style="color: #20124d; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Super Moon ~ A Super Moon occurs when the moon’s perigee is at its closest when orbiting the Earth. Translated – During its orbit, the Moon is very close to the Earth causing it to appear larger than normal. Super Moons heighten our emotional sensitivity. Don’t be surprised if you and those around you are a bit touchy. The benefit to this phenomenon is that hidden or unexpressed emotions will come to the surface. What has been hidden emotionally will have the opportunity to be acknowledged, dealt with, and hopefully addressed and shifted.</span></div>

<span style="color: #20124d; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Full Moon in Libra at 0 Degrees ~ A Full Moon is when the cycle of the moon when it is at its full illumination and strength. An excellent time to make moon water and to put your crystals and healing tools out to recharge with the moon’s energy. The energy is so strong it affects people’s moods, the tides, and the animal kingdom. This Full Moon is in the sign of Libra at 0 Degrees so we can expect a balancing within our relationships that is either going to make them or break them. When a sign is at 0 Degrees it is at the beginning stages or starting a new journey with fresh new eyes and perspectives.</span></div>

<span style="color: #20124d; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Spring Equinox ~ Usually the Spring Equinox is around March 21st for the northern hemisphere. It’s the time of the year when new cycles begin and all creatures give birth to new beginnings.</span></div>
<div style="background-position: 0px 0px; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; caret-color: rgb(102, 102, 102); font-size: 14px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="color: #20124d; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Mercury Retrograde ~ We don’t want to overlook the fact that the planet Mercury went retrograde on March 5th and will go direct on March 28th. Mercury is providing us with the opportunity to be clear with our communication skills with ourselves and others. It is a time of re-revisiting, redoing, revamping, and repairing all of the details ahead of time so that we don’t have to start over with our intentions.</span></div>
<div style="background-position: 0px 0px; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; caret-color: rgb(102, 102, 102); font-size: 14px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="color: #20124d; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Sun Sign in Aries ~ We are now moving into the first sign of the zodiac, Aries. Aries is the trailblazer and has the confidence and healthy ego to get out there and to GO FOR IT!</span></div>
<div style="background-position: 0px 0px; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; caret-color: rgb(102, 102, 102); font-size: 14px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="color: #20124d; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Some key points we want to keep our eyes peeled for are:<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />Our relationships are going to be put to the test to see if they can withstand the test of time and pressure. There may be a few endings and there will most certainly be a few new relationships that will be formed.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />Communication may be a little off due to Mercury being retrograde.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />Emotions and tempers may flare up due to the Super Moon and Full Moon.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />New psychic gifts will be coming in because of the new cycles that we are stepping into.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />Spirit will be the judge and jury of what is and isn’t balanced in your life. Be ready for some surprises here as some situations may be phased out only for your highest and best good.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />Be mindful of Aries’ tendency to be over-confident. Keep that ego in check.</span></div>
<div style="background-position: 0px 0px; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; caret-color: rgb(102, 102, 102); font-size: 14px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="color: #20124d; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Some suggestions for this Moon are:<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />Be flexible and keep your faith and trust strong.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />Say what you mean and mean what you say with love, integrity, and honesty of course.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />Take your time with planting your seeds and make sure you really truly are clear with your goals.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />Do your soul work and first and foremost be honest with yourself.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />Schedule some spiritual healing pampering for yourself, maybe a Reiki session or a massage.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />Keep up with your meditation practice of meditating at least 2x’s a week.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />Libra is a peacemaker so this moon should bring about resolution and healthy closure for you.</span></div>
<div style="background-position: 0px 0px; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; caret-color: rgb(102, 102, 102); font-size: 14px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="color: #20124d; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Libra seeks balance in all areas of our lives and Aries will bring out the ego and our job is to find balance and harmony between both. It’s quite possible that we may see some people becoming more selfish and in some cases this is needed and in others, it may be too much for us to engage in these one-sided relationships. The old paradigm of relationships will be coming to an end due to the evolutionary shift of the planet and collective consciousness. Spirit suggests that we all do our part, our own soul work, and live our lives as if each and every word, thought, relationship, deed, and experience matters because it does.</span></div>

By the way, due to the fact that February has only 28 days, there are some years that the Full Moon cycle skips February and takes place in the very beginning of March. This year we are lucky! February’s Full Moon is known by Native Americans as a Snow Moon.</span></span><span style="color: #20124d;"><span style="-webkit-text-stroke-width: initial;"> </span><span style="font-kerning: none;"></span></span></span></div>
<div style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; min-height: 12px;">

<span style="font-kerning: none;"><span style="color: #20124d; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">This Full Moon is in the sign of practical, grounded Virgo and in the sun sign of intuitive, nurturing Pisces. The key to working with opposing signs is to find a healthy balance between the two signs. We then add the fluid, psychic and heightened emotions of the Full Moon into the cosmic mix and hopefully we will find and create a happy middle ground. </span></span></div>
<div style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; min-height: 12px;">

<span style="font-kerning: none;"><span style="color: #20124d; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The Snow Moon was named for the Full Moon in February because February is the month where the Native American people experienced the most snowfall of the year. The Snow Moon brings out our survival instincts. When push comes to shove and the survival of your soul’s journey depends on you challenging yourself to your limits, you must dig deep and give your everything to make it through the difficult times. This Moon shows us that we have everything within us to not only survive but thrive as well.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-kerning: none;"><span style="color: #20124d; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">To make things even more interesting, this month’s Moon is a Super Moon which means that the Moon will be closer than normal to the Earth. In fact, this Super Moon will be the biggest and brightest Moon of the year. Super Moons magnify the lunar energies significantly. </span></span></div>

<span style="font-kerning: none;"><span style="color: #20124d; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">There are a few themes that go along with this month’s Full Moon. The first and main theme is all about getting clear with what the core truths are for you at this time. Virgo is ruled by Mercury and Mercury governs communication. We are being nudged by spirit to go within first and do some deep soul searching for the truth as well as for the answers to your deepest questions and concerns. Next, you are encouraged turn your attention outwards and discern what is real and what is illusion as well as who is being honest and who is being deceptive. Lastly, take the steps to clean and clear your inner and outer houses with integrity, honesty and with new healthy and solid boundaries in place. </span></span></div>

<span style="font-kerning: none;"><span style="color: #20124d; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Let’s not forget about Virgo’s focus on physical health. Are you taking the best care of your temple as you could be? Are you eating healthy foods? Are you exercising? Are you getting enough rest? This month your body is going to reveal to you what it needs from you. Your body will most likely start to reject toxicity on the inner and outer planes, please pay attention to it and do something about it.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-kerning: none;"><span style="color: #20124d; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">We move into the sun sign of Pisces on Feb 18th. Pisces is going to help us hone in on our intuition, creativity, nurturing side, connection to other realms and create a stronger alliance with our highest self. This Virgo/Pisces combo will bring us truth in our relationships as well as with the situations where we are being taken advantage of and allowing ourselves to be manipulated and vice versa. Yes, you read that correctly. It is quite possible that you may be manipulating others and will have deeper clarity on where, where and how. </span></span></div>

Our first Full Moon of the year </div>
will be on Monday, January 21st at 12:17am eastern time. If you’re a Moon lover as I am, you probably have the dates and times of when the next lunar event written down somewhere. With each lunar event, you can work your Moon ceremony/ritual/magic a day before and a day after the actual event.<br />
<div style="background-position: 0px 0px; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; caret-color: rgb(102, 102, 102); font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; vertical-align: baseline;">
We have 5, yes 5 different cosmic energies influencing this month’s Full Moon. I’ll share some information about each individual influence in just a little bit. Typically, we begin feeling the lunar effects a few days or even sometimes a week before the actual event. January’s Full Moon is in the Sun sign of Aquarius and the Moon is in Leo. With these two opposing signs, we may find ourselves battling between two different paths of focuses. On one hand, Leo may be encouraging us to put ourselves first and take no prisoners as we do so. On the other hand, Aquarius is more focused on humanitarian efforts and what must be done for the collective consciousness. </div>
<div style="background-position: 0px 0px; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; caret-color: rgb(102, 102, 102); font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; vertical-align: baseline;">
<b style="background-position: 0px 0px; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Let’s Delve Into The Details About This Full Moon Shall We?</b></div>
<div style="background-position: 0px 0px; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; caret-color: rgb(102, 102, 102); font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; vertical-align: baseline;">
<b style="background-position: 0px 0px; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Wolf Moon</b> – The Wolf Moon is the first Full Moon of the year and was given this name by the Native Americans. In the Northern part of the country, the wolves would howl outside on cold, wintery nights. They were hungry and used their voice to communicate their needs with Great Spirit. Some questions to ask yourself on the Wolf Moon are; What are you hungry for? Are you using the vibration and power of your voice to let your hopes and dreams be heard and known by Great Spirit? If not now, when will you?</div>
<div style="background-position: 0px 0px; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; caret-color: rgb(102, 102, 102); font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; vertical-align: baseline;">
<b style="background-position: 0px 0px; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Super Moon </b>– A Super Moon occurs when the Moon’s perigee is at its closest when orbiting the Earth. During its orbit, the Moon is very close to the Earth causing it to appear larger than normal. Super Moons heighten our emotional sensitivity. Don’t be surprised if both you and those around you are a bit touchy and emotional these days. The benefit to this phenomenon is that hidden or unexpressed emotions will come to the surface. What has been hidden emotionally will have the opportunity to be acknowledged, dealt with, and hopefully addressed and shifted.</div>
<div style="background-position: 0px 0px; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; caret-color: rgb(102, 102, 102); font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; vertical-align: baseline;">
<b style="background-position: 0px 0px; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Lunar Eclipse</b> – A Lunar Eclipse takes place when the Moon moves into the Earth’s shadow. The Earth is equally between the Sun and the Moon. This event has a very strong impact on our shadow side, our unpleasant patterns, belief systems, and behaviors. Not only will our shadows be highlighted, but the unfavorable behavior of others will come to light and be placed front and center stage as well. The blessing during this time is that what is not favorable, desirable, or ethical behavior will be brought out into the open for all to work on healing and correcting. Lunar Eclipses effect not only our emotions but also the relationships that are in our inner circle; our family, significant others and even the relationship with self. Eclipses can do 1 of 2 things. They can open us up to higher planes of consciousness, ascension for many or they can be warning us of challenging times ahead. Anyone who is reading this already has the understanding that in order for us to grow as a soul entity, we often need to be backed into a corner to push through our own challenges. Having this understanding, is a helpful reminder that there is a purpose to the suffering as we go through the occasional Sh#$storm.</div>
<div style="background-position: 0px 0px; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; caret-color: rgb(102, 102, 102); font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; vertical-align: baseline;">
<b style="background-position: 0px 0px; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Blood Moon</b> – When a Lunar Eclipse takes place, the Moon appears to darken in color as it moves into Earth’s shadow. When this happens, the Moon isn’t completely dark, it takes on a reddish color. What you are seeing at this time are sunbeams peeking out from the edge of the Moon, hence the name Blood Moon. The Blood Moon emphasizes the influence of being completely honest and truthful with yourself. When we are transparent, there is nothing to hide or cover up. Often there is a sigh of relief as we clear out the muck within our minds and negative ego. Let’s face it, there isn’t anywhere that is safe to hide.</div>
<div style="background-position: 0px 0px; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; caret-color: rgb(102, 102, 102); font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; vertical-align: baseline;">
<b style="background-position: 0px 0px; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Full Moon in Leo</b> – Last but not least, the Full Moon is in the sign of Leo. The spotlight will be on relationships – with self and others. First, it is best if we got really clear with our motives and on the processes of how we go about pursuing the goals we have for ourselves. Since everything is being brought out into the open, it provides us with the opportunity to face what is revealed and proceed ahead with the courage of Leo. You can bet there is nowhere to hide because Leo loves attention and knows exactly how to get your attention, as well as the attention of others. We will be harnessing Leo’s passion, drive and courage to make sure we heed the call our soul and at the same time Aquarius is going to help us to make sure we don’t stomp on anyone else’s toes. </div>
<div style="background-position: 0px 0px; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; caret-color: rgb(102, 102, 102); font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; vertical-align: baseline;">
Chances are, you have been already been feeling the pressure of being more authentic with your dealings with others and self unless you’ve been living on a one-person island. People have been feeling out of their elements and the discomfort is there as a reminder to do something about what and whom makes you uncomfortable. If you are a shy person and have difficulty standing up for yourself and speaking your truth, then Leo will most certainly help you balance out that timidness. Below are some suggestions to help you ride the wave of this powerful and important Full Moon.</div>
<div style="background-position: 0px 0px; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; caret-color: rgb(102, 102, 102); font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; vertical-align: baseline;">
<b style="background-position: 0px 0px; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Suggestions For The Full Moon</b></div>
<ul style="background-position: 0px 0px; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; caret-color: rgb(102, 102, 102); font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 26px; list-style-image: initial; list-style-position: initial; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 23px 1em; vertical-align: baseline;">
<li style="background-position: 0px 0px; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Work with Fire. Leo is a fire sign and fire gets the ball rolling. Light candles with intention, participate in a fire ceremony and maybe do a reading with only the wands in your tarot deck.</li>
<li style="background-position: 0px 0px; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Take a bath with epsom salt, kosher sea salt, Himalayan salt and lavender to help you process your emotions.</li>
<li style="background-position: 0px 0px; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Sage everything, yourself included!</li>
<li style="background-position: 0px 0px; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Get cord cuttings as often as you feel the need to. With intention, cut the cords to people, places and things that are toxic to the evolution of your soul.</li>
<li style="background-position: 0px 0px; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Listen to hemi-sync meditation frequencies. They will help balance out both sides of the brain.</li>
<li style="background-position: 0px 0px; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Exercise outdoors, go for a walk, hike or run. The fresh air will do wonders for you.</li>
<li style="background-position: 0px 0px; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Have a game plan. Write down your goals for the next 12 months and don’t play small. The sky is the limit.</li>
<li style="background-position: 0px 0px; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Work with cinnamon and close essential oils in your diffuser or breathe in the combo to give your spirit a jumpstart.</li>
<li style="background-position: 0px 0px; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Don’t be a drama queen. With these energies, you may find yourself to be a bit overreactive and causing some drama. Catch yourself before you work yourself into a tizzy.</li>
</ul>

<div style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">
<span style="-webkit-font-kerning: none;"><span style="color: #351c75; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Our last new moon of 2018 will take place on Friday, December 7th at 2:20am eastern standard time. This new moon will be in the sun sign of Sagittarius. Sagittarius is known for its fiery, exciting, passionate, spontaneous energy and its quest for wisdom. You may find yourself craving adventure, travel and wanting to escape from the mundane during this time. What a great, optimistic way to finish up the end of the 2018. It’s usually a time of feeling exhausted from the busy holiday season.</span></span></div>
<div style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; min-height: 12px;">

<span style="font-kerning: none;"><span style="color: #351c75; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">There are many benefits with working with this energy during the new moon. One of the perks is not only will you feel inspired to do something about your goals, but you also will experience the cosmic push to get out there and follow through by taking action.</span></span></div>
<div style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; min-height: 12px;">

<span style="font-kerning: none;"><span style="color: #351c75; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Over the past few months we’ve been going deep, really deep within our subconscious mind. We’ve been cleansing, healing, releasing and shifting out of what we have concluded doesn’t serve us anymore. We’ve also been getting very clear with how we would like our lives to look moving forward without all of the unnecessary baggage that we’ve been carrying around with us for years. </span></span></div>
<div style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; min-height: 12px;">

<span style="font-kerning: none;"><span style="color: #351c75; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">We also are experiencing the influences of Mars, Neptune and Jupiter. Neptune connects us with Pisces’ dreamy and mystical energy and has us visualizing and contemplating how we can bring our dreams into our physical reality. Mars will be cheering us on and motivating us to get out there and make some magic happen. Jupiter has returned home to its sun sign of Sagittarius. This, my friends is where the going gets great!! Jupiter is the planet of luck, faith and expansion of goals and ideas. We can compare the combination of these 3 cosmic energies with the likes of being granted 3 wishes from the Genie in the bottle! </span></span></div>

<span style="font-kerning: none;"><span style="color: #351c75; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">It’s also important to mention that the planet Mercury goes direct on December 6th. What this means for us is that downloads and mental clarity are readily available for us to tap into during the next few weeks. It’s a prime time to map out the upcoming year with both your short term and long term goals. Also, we can look forward to our electronics not taking a poop, traffic moving along and not experiencing tons of misunderstandings through miscommunication ~ Hallelujah! </span></span></div>

For those of us who celebrate Thanksgiving, we will be able to view and experience the Full Moon on Thanksgiving at its height. With Gemini being at 0 degrees during this Full Moon, the energy that has been impacting us can be compared to the tarot card, The Fool. The Fool is trusting, has faith, is a risk taker and can be impulsive. The Fool also reminds us that it may be time to start over in the areas of our lives that have come full circle ~ beginning, middle and ending.</span><span style="-webkit-text-stroke-width: initial;"> </span></span></div>

<span style="font-kerning: none;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The Sun sign that the Moon is in is Sagittarius, which connects us to the higher mind, expanded consciousness, adventure and the search for universal knowledge and wisdom. As we combine the energies of Gemini (lower mind) with Sagittarius (higher mind), we are encouraged to find a happy medium. Gemini is going to assist us with integrating the knowledge downloaded from Sagittarius and applying it to our physical, human, earthy existence. </span></span></div>

<span style="font-kerning: none;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Gemini is ruled by Mercury, the planet that governs the areas of communication, rationalization, transportation and information. Mercury went retrograde on November 16th and will be retrograde until December 6th. This can add to some possible miscommunication, disagreements and possibly some heated debates. Keep this information in the back or your mind as you gather with friends and family over this holiday season.</span></span></div>

<span style="color: #20124d; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">concept of manifestation, belief systems and energy field mindfulness. There is most certainly a theme that has been put into place these days and spirit has been planting people in my field so that I can be of assistance to them as well as myself with empowering and/or powering up our desires, hopes, dreams and birthing them into our physical realities. The world is a beautiful mirror and the mirror can reveal so much to us; where we are, how far we've come and where we may be headed.</span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #20124d; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>The Magical Questions Are;</b> </span><br />
<br />
<ul>
<li><span style="color: #20124d; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Are you consciously aware of the thoughts and beliefs that are in your field? </span></li>
<li><span style="color: #20124d; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Do you want the current frequency in your field? </span></li>
<li><span style="color: #20124d; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">What can you do to pull that old belief/frequency out of your field? </span></li>
<li><span style="color: #20124d; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">What beliefs/frequencies do you want to consciously anchor into your field? </span></li>
</ul>
<br />
<span style="color: #20124d; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #20124d; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">What is the field? The energy field or field is the aura, the egg-shaped energy that surrounds the physical body. The aura has many different layers that extend out from the body The field or auric layer that spirit is referring to is the one that is closest to your physical body. It's the last phase of the manifestation process before the desire and/or belief makes its transition into the physical reality. This field of energy acts as a magnet or anchor attracting a like frequency to it. Like attracts like. I know some people struggle with this concept however, some beliefs are old, hidden and pop up when an aligning energy is calling it out of its hiding spot. It may be that the outdated belief has served its purpose and ready to be moved out of your field.</span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #20124d; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The ideal goal is to be conscious and aware of the belief systems, stories and frequencies that we are placing into our fields as well as which beliefs, worries, fears, hopes and dreams are already anchored into our fields. It is quite possible that you may find some really strong solid frequencies that you want to keep anchored in your field and it's quite possible that there are some that are outdated and no longer serve you. </span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #20124d; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I get it, some of the stuff in there isn't pretty and it may challenge you to look at let alone pull out. However, if you're really over the old patterns that don't serve you, then you will want to do this work for yourself. </span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<b><span style="color: #20124d; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Clearing The Field </span></b><br />
<br />
<ol>
<li><span style="color: #20124d; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>Observation </b>~ Observe yourself and take a good look at the words and thoughts that you are speaking and thinking. Ask yourself; Do I want this in my field? Do I really want to empower the current thought? If the answer is no, then simply grab it by the collar and remove it from of your field. Thank it for revealing itself and then bless it as you remove it out of your field. Try to not get caught up in the why it's there or how to prevent it from coming back. The more frequently you do this, the faster you will shift into a higher vibration. BTW, there are will always be a few beliefs in your field that you will want to remove because they do not serve a purpose anymore. With each phase of the ascension process there will be old beliefs that no longer serve. True.Story.</span></li>
<li><span style="color: #20124d; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>Journal</b> ~ I suggest keeping a journal handy at all times. You never know what empowering mantra, affirmation and/or belief system you might want to anchor into your field. We receive downloads of information often throughout our day. I like to write these golden nuggets of wisdom so that I can reflect on them at a later date.</span></li>
<li><span style="color: #20124d; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>Field/Aura Hygiene</b> ~ Sealing and smoothing your aura/field every once in a while is an excellent spiritual hygiene practice. The field becomes muddy, cloudy and tears with regular every day stress, drama, family stuff, work stuff, health stuff, money stuff etc. Taking salt baths, saging yourself or burning Palo Santo will clear, cleanse, repair and strengthen the field. I like to use a selenite wand to comb my auric field after these activities. Selenite brings in the light, pulls out the lower frequencies and seals up the aura beautifully. Oh and selenite doesn't need to be cleansed.</span></li>
<li><span style="color: #20124d; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>Keep It Judgement Free</b> ~ When shifting our consciousness sometimes we tend to punish ourselves or judge the patterns we get trapped in. It really doesn't serve us to beat ourselves up over the past or present. Acknowledge, remove, bless and anchor in what you DO want for yourself. It's that simple. No need to complicate the process.</span></li>
<li><span style="color: #20124d; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>Don't Forget Your Sense of Humor </b>~ The ability to laugh at ourselves and our situations is a true gift. Some of our fears are silly and it's ok to bring in humor. Laugher is a high vibration and a giggle/snort-fest is sometimes exactly what we need to shift our realities. Yes, sometimes things aren't humorous when we are in the thick of the sh#T. However, I can guarantee you spirit will bring in a mood shifter to move you into a higher vibration and laughter is often the vehicle to get you there.</span></li>
</ol>
<div>
<span style="color: #20124d; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Creating a thriving reality for ourselves is a heck of a lot easier than what we may perceive it to look like or what we USED to think it would look like. We don't necessarily need to take the long, drawn out path of dissecting each thought, each pattern and spend hours tracking where it originated. For some people there may be some trauma that needs extra TLC. </span><span style="caret-color: rgb(32, 18, 77); color: #20124d; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I would like to add that each situation is unique and if you are finding that you are really triggered and struggling, then working with a trusted advisor might be the best course of action for you. B</span><span style="color: #20124d; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">ut for the majority, we can take the shortcut. We, the collective are going through a HUGE shift in consciousness which is why so many of us are finding ourselves shifting our consciousness instantaneously. Each one of us has an impact on the collective and each individual that moves into self awareness, assists the collective and makes it easier for all of us to move into a place of sovereignty. </span></div>

<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-H9H_7FXxMQE/W89sfUZwOWI/AAAAAAAABZM/4X2Of1jYVdodnnawNWyK5QEtglBO1ZnQwCLcBGAs/s1600/meditation-2717462_640.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="426" data-original-width="640" height="213" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-H9H_7FXxMQE/W89sfUZwOWI/AAAAAAAABZM/4X2Of1jYVdodnnawNWyK5QEtglBO1ZnQwCLcBGAs/s320/meditation-2717462_640.jpg" width="320" /></a><span style="-webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">October’s Full Moon will take place on 12:45pm eastern on Wednesday, October 24th. This Full Moon will keep us on our toes as we experience changes in our love lives and with financial status. The energy is very similar to the Tower card in the traditional tarot deck. In order for life to get better, things tend to fall apart in order for our lives to improve. During this time, we may experience the dissolution of relationships, feeling disconnected from our jobs and our finances may not be as stable as they once were. These shifts take place so that we can take an introspective look at what doesn’t serve, what does serve and create a solid foundation for our hopes and dreams. I can honestly say that we have all been feeling the rumbling and shaking of our foundations. If there is chaos in your personal life and/or with your finances, then you can bet these areas had cracks in the foundation. If there is stability and sensibility, you will not experience the energy of Tower. If there is a slight crack, which there are a few for 99% of us, spirit will assist in pointing out the crack. Not only will spirit point the crack out, but highlight it and present it front and center so that there is no overlooking it or misunderstanding what it is and why it isn’t for your highest and best good.</span></div>

<span style="font-kerning: none;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Cosmically the explanation for these events is that Venus is in opposition of Uranus which affects our personal life, abundance and may trigger emotional upheaval. We then add the water of Scorpio; the current Sun sign, the watery emotions of the Full Moon and we then have the potential for highly charged emotions. We can counter these emotional outbursts with the earthy and grounded energy of Taurus which is the sign that the Moon is in at this time.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-kerning: none;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">This Moon is also known as the Hunter’s Moon. The Hunter’s Moon is the first Full Moon after the Harvest Moon. It’s the perfect time to begin to prepare for the future. It’s important that we strategize and prepare for long lasting security for ourselves while this Moon is in Taurus. Are you setting yourself up for success down the road or are you living hand to mouth, procrastinating and always playing catch up? This is an awesome time to set abundance, success, joy and personal fulfillment for the long haul.</span></span></div>

You Do You. In this time of shifts and adjustments, you may find yourself wanting to nurture and focus your attention on others who are hurting. They have their path, you have yours. You can hold space for them but they must learn for themselves as you must learn for yourself. Take care of you! Is your life yours? This energy is forcing us to look at this inquiry. Are you living for you or are you more concerned and occupied with what is taking place with someone or something in your life? It’s time to get real and step into your truth, individual path and authentic self.</span></span></li>

Don’t forget we choose to have the human experience for our individual and collective evolution so all is purposeful. By being proactive with the changes that come our way with optimism, joy, faith, excitement and determination, we can experience Heaven on Earth. We knew and chose our “soul lessons” before we incarnated and most certainly did place a few life lines along the way in the form of guides, friends, family, gifts, passions, interests and an internal GPS. Don’t forget this! Help, guidance, love, support and hope are around us. We sometimes simply need to be reminded of this.</span></span></div>

It seems as if humans, animals, birds, plants and Gaia, our Earth Mother, are all going through several different purging processes. Our weather has been really off, the waters have been turbulent and toxic, there is an increase in animal/marine life attacks and the rage and anger that has been tucked way down deep with our fellow sisters and brothers is surfacing and demanding society’s attention.</span></span></div>
<div style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; min-height: 12px;">
<span style="color: #20124d; font-family: verdana, sans-serif;">There is so much that can be talked about in detail about this New Moon however, spirit is guiding me to talk about the deep upheavals that are taking place with our relationships. All of our relationships are requiring attention, re-evaluation and then taking the necessary steps to bring balance into our lives. I am referencing the giving and receiving in our relationships; romantic, familial, career, friendships, acquaintances, our bodies and also the relationship with self. </span></div>
<div style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-kerning: none;"><span style="color: #20124d; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The New Moon is in the sun sign of Libra. Libras are all about balance, justice, diplomacy, detachment and are at their best when they have healthy partnerships. The challenging aspects of Libra are they tend to remain in relationships that are not always for their highest and best good because they tend to feel incomplete without being paired with someone. </span></span></div>
<div style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-kerning: none;"><span style="color: #20124d; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">It’s an excellent time to purge what is toxic in your life; health routines, relationships, and spirit will be a bit forceful with helping you to really let go of what isn’t serving. Libras are also notorious for being overwhelmed when having to make executive decisions. </span></span></div>
<div style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-kerning: none;"><span style="color: #20124d; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Whelp, this New Moon has some interesting celestial influences that will help with our indecision and the cleansing process has already begun and has been full force for the last few weeks. Venus has gone retrograde, the New Moon is square to Pluto and is conjunct Ceres. </span></span></div>

Venus is the planet of love and war. Retrogrades bring attention to our past. Therefore ex’s and old beliefs around relationships will probably come up for you to take a closer and deeper look at.</span></span></li>

Remember Venus is the goddess of love and war, so you may be feeling anger, rage and/or frustration as the past comes bubbling up to the surface. </span></span></li>

Ceres is connected with women, equal rights, motherhood, nurturing and the divine feminine finding her voice and place in society. We most certainly have been experiencing this wave of conscious awareness since the January 31st Lunar Eclipse. </span></span></li>

<span style="font-kerning: none;"><span style="color: #20124d; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">How can we tap in and utilize these energetic influences? As these cosmic windows open up for us, it is important that we remember these energetic influences are meant to be tapped into as a collective to shift the consciousness on our planet as part of our soul’s journey. We can be lax and allow life to happen to us causing us to be more reactive and remain in a state of victimhood OR we can address each emotion, situation, intuitive nudge and relationship with a conscious awareness that all that takes place is purposeful for our individual and collective evolutions. </span></span></div>

As all of the tucked away emotions come to the surface, they need to find an outlet. Exercise, spending time in nature, martial arts, screaming at the top of your lungs, writing a letter and giving it voice, punching a pillow or punching bag and/or expressing your disappointment with the appropriate receivers with tact will all help you get in touch with and shift unexpressed emotions. </span></span></li>

Virgo’s New Moon brings us a centered and grounded approach to our lives and goals which is a welcomed shift from the recent emotional and etheric Full Moon in Pisces that had just taken place in August. We began this last lunar cycle dreamily looking at our life paths, opened up our hearts and psychic channels and now have the opportunity to get down to business after leaving most of the retrograde and eclipse season behind us. The exact time of the New Moon will take place is September 6th, 2018 at 2:01pm eastern time. </div>

<div style="caret-color: rgb(102, 0, 102); color: #660066; font-family: "Trebuchet MS"; font-size: 16px;">
We are currently in the sun sign of Virgo which is the sign of organization, planning and discipline. There are may positive traits and behaviors that Virgo brings to the table. Virgo is an earth sign and earth signs help keep us focused, grounded, centered and are excellent manifestors. If you are a little disorganized and undisciplined, then this New Moon will help you get on track and hopefully stay on track.</div>

With the influences of Virgo, we are taking those goals and bringing a different and deeper level of maturity, seriousness and attention to detail to the table. The Virgo influence will help us with our dedication and discipline guiding us to follow through with our thoughts, words and deeds. </div>

<div style="caret-color: rgb(102, 0, 102); color: #660066; font-family: "Trebuchet MS"; font-size: 16px;">
There are just a few words of caution when it comes to working with this energy. Be mindful of being so laser-focused and keeping to the plan that you don’t allow yourself any wiggle room for flexibility and/or miracles. Also, you might find yourself a little bit too critical of the journey, yourself and past mistakes. We’re all human here, so we are going to make mistakes. The mistakes we make are part of the manifestation process. We are all perfect in our imperfections.</div>

<b>Here are some suggestions for this New Moon in Virgo</b></div>
<ul style="caret-color: rgb(102, 0, 102); color: #660066; font-family: "Trebuchet MS"; font-size: 16px;">
<li>Write down your goals and revisit them often. Be realistic with these goals.</li>
<li>Get grounded so that you stay focused with sage, exercise, eating rooted vegetables.</li>
<li>Carry crystals such as; citrine, celestite, fluorite, chrysocolla, amethyst and green aventurine.</li>
<li>Work with aromatherapy oils such as; lemon, frankincense, sandalwood and sage.</li>
<li>De-clutter your environment.</li>
<li>Re-read everything. Don’t just gloss over paperwork, make sure that it’s correct and right. This isn’t a time to be lazy.</li>
<li>Listen to your body and start taking better care of it.</li>
<li>Burn green, brown or beige candles. Don’t forget to write your intention on the side of your candles.</li>
</ul>
<div style="caret-color: rgb(102, 0, 102); color: #660066; font-family: "Trebuchet MS"; font-size: 16px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="caret-color: rgb(102, 0, 102); color: #660066; font-family: "Trebuchet MS"; font-size: 16px;">
This New Moon is most certainly an excellent time to fine-tune some of the intentions you may have had for yourself this year. We are at the manifestation phase where we are beginning to see some growth and progress with our goals as they begin to take form in the physical. It’s not too late in the game to fine-tune things and change them up just a wee bit. Take advantage of this time of precision, detail and discipline. If you do so, you will have virtually poured miracle grow on your goals by giving them such close attention. </div>
<div style="caret-color: rgb(102, 0, 102); color: #660066; font-family: "Trebuchet MS"; font-size: 16px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="caret-color: rgb(102, 0, 102); color: #660066; font-family: "Trebuchet MS"; font-size: 16px;">
Don’t forget to remain in a place of gratitude and humbleness as your dreams and goals begin to take shape and form. Having an attitude of gratitude is one of the most important ingredients for manifesting your heart’s desires.</div>

The need to go on a solitary hermit-like journey within is most likely way too strong to ignore this month. We are now in the Sun sign of Virgo, and cannot deny the call to action of finding one’s purpose and grounding that purposeful purpose into the physical. Virgo’s uncanny attention to detail, discipline and strong willpower will help drive the intuitive guidance and wisdom from Pisces into a reality. The combination of these two astrological signs can assist those who have been stuck and stagnate wondering what their purpose is and how to go about manifesting their “Dream Life” into the physical plane. The Full Moon in August will take place on Sunday, August 26th, 2018 at 7:56am eastern.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-kerning: none;"><span style="color: #20124d; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The summer of 2018 has been a bit wonky has it not? We are on the other side of the 3 recent eclipses, Mercury has gone direct yet we are still dealing with Chiron, Mars, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto which are all still retrograde. To say things may have been a bit crazy, emotional, challenging and enlightening is probably an understatement. It’s important remember that our decision to incarnate at this time is no coincidence. Those who are here living on planet Earth, most certainly are here to learn and grow. The opportunities for soul growth and evolution are to be acted upon individually for each soul. Yes, there are mass events that influence us all to come together, however, the present cosmic influences are here to assist each one of us as individual soul entities to learn, grow and heal karma not only from the current lifetime but many lifetimes as well. The ancestral lineage karma that has been passed on for many generations is ripe and ready for us to heal, shift and transform for ourselves and generations past and future.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-kerning: none;"><span style="color: #20124d; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Another cosmic event that deserves attention is the grand Earth trine that is also taking place as well. A grand trine is a geometric pattern of 3 planets that form an equilateral triangle. These 3 planets are usually all of the same element. The current trine is made of the element of earth. The planets/signs are:</span></span></div>

You could say it’s a cosmic window of opportunity. You may find yourself being very practical, grounded, disciplined, sensual and centered because of this grand trine earthy influence.</span></span></div>

July’s Full Moon has a few extra cosmic elements woven into it and we as a collective are all feeling its glorious effects. Full Moons are always a time when we experience a blast of lunar and solar energy that is enhanced by the astrological signs that it is in. The possible triggers we experience depends upon the signs the moon and sun are in.</span><span style="-webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; color: #20124d; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"> </span></div>

<span style="font-kerning: none;"><span style="color: #20124d; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Lunar eclipses bring attention to our relationships and this month’s Full Moon brings about two polar opposite signs: Leo and Aquarius. The combination of these two signs will highlight imbalances in our personal and impersonal relationships, our private lives and our public lives, the intimate relationships and acquaintance/friend relationships. </span></span></div>
<div style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(34, 34, 34); -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; min-height: 16px;">

<span style="font-kerning: none;"><span style="color: #20124d; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">This month, the Moon is in Aquarius and the Sun is in Leo. Aquarius is known as the humanitarian sign where the focus is on what’s best for the greater good and not receiving for the self alone. They are also extremely intelligent, are problem-solving oriented and can be shy, but love being part of a team. The sign of Leo loves to be the center of attention, Leo a natural born leader, is very creative, confident and thrives in motivating and leading the pack. As you can see, both of these signs will have a huge impact for all Lightworkers to step into their humanitarian roles of leadership and healing as a collective. We are beginning to see a rise in people who are seeking deeper ways of fulfilling their spiritual callings and practices. </span></span></div>

<span style="font-kerning: none;"><span style="color: #20124d; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Feeling the fire, courage and inspiration from Leo’s fiery energy can be a blessing to get you to take action when it comes to moving out of the places where you feel really uncomfortable. Don’t forget that Mars is a fire sign as well, therefore, the desire to do something about your discomfort or the pull start something new is very strong during this time. It may be best to channel your creativity towards doing something physical such as painting, dancing, journaling, singing, rearranging furniture etc. This action will help settle your restlessness and give you some time to process your emotions which quite possibly be significantly triggered this month. </span></span></div>

The Earth is equally between the Sun and the Moon. This event has a very strong impact on our shadow side, our unpleasant patterns, belief systems, and behaviors. Not only will our shadows be highlighted, but the unfavorable behavior of others will come to light and be placed front and center stage as well. The blessing during this time is that what is not favorable, desirable, or ethical behavior will be brought out into the open for all to work on healing and correcting</span></span></li>

When this happens, the Moon isn't completely dark, it takes on a reddish color. What you are seeing at this time are sunbeams peeking out from the edge of the Moon, hence the name Blood Moon. The Blood Moon emphasizes the influence of being completely honest and truthful with yourself. When we are transparent, there is nothing to hide or cover up. Often there is a sigh of relief as we clear out the muck within our minds and negative ego. Let's face it, there isn't anywhere that is safe to hide.

<span style="font-kerning: none;"><span style="color: #20124d; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">We truly are at a groundbreaking and pivotal point in time as a collective where many are hearing the call of spirit to be more tolerant and mindful of their brothers and sisters. So many people are stepping up to the plate and are taking responsibility for their own healing journeys and then are turning around and inspiring others to do the same. The “What’s in it for me?” mindset is becoming less and less fulfilling for many. Lightworkers are not only stepping into the light but are shining that light so brightly that others cannot help but be positively influenced by it. A beautiful time to be here on planet Earth, indeed. </span></span></div>

<br /></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #660066; font-family: "trebuchet ms", geneva; font-size: 12pt;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">This month's Full Moon in Capricorn is an interesting time for us as both Saturn and Mars </span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-ujG_k0yjSAs/WzPqyLIek5I/AAAAAAAABW8/APW8zVcOthwdgsv-uta0r6oOKQ-j4jg3QCLcBGAs/s1600/night-107396_640.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="452" data-original-width="640" height="226" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-ujG_k0yjSAs/WzPqyLIek5I/AAAAAAAABW8/APW8zVcOthwdgsv-uta0r6oOKQ-j4jg3QCLcBGAs/s320/night-107396_640.jpg" width="320" /></a></span></div>
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">
are retrograde. Saturn is known as the Lord of Karma. What does this mean? It means we can expect to be working on some serious karmic stuff that has been accumulated not just from this lifetime, but other lifetimes as well because this month's Full Moon is in the sign of Capricorn which is ruled by Saturn = double karmic homework. All of this karma talk may sound a bit overwhelming, but it doesn't have to take you out and down for the count. Let's face it, what needs to be addressed and healed is going to come up for us anyway, so we might as well address the karmic experiences that come our way as opportunities for personal growth, healing and become more in tune with our authentic selves. BTW, not all karma is bad. Karma is the sum of our experiences that makes its way back to us. We can and are able to create good karma right here, right now. Woot! Woot!</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #660066; font-family: "trebuchet ms", geneva; font-size: 12pt;">
<br /></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #660066; font-family: "trebuchet ms", geneva; font-size: 12pt;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">The Full Moon always intensifies our emotions as well as the astrological influences that are affecting us at that given time. This Full Moon is in the sign of Capricorn. Capricorn is a hard worker, is strong, determined and has willpower of steal to see projects and goals to fruition. The goat is associated with Capricorn and takes its time as it climbs that mountain. It makes sure it has solid footing before moving forward. Channel this energy as you work through these in-your-face karmic situations that have been pushing your buttons. Perseverance is a must at this time and try to do everything within your power to not give up. These tests are to help you push through self limitations. You will find the courage within you to cut ties from unfulfilling jobs, relationships, unhealthy habits and self-sabotaging belief systems that you know have been holding you back for years.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #660066; font-family: "trebuchet ms", geneva; font-size: 12pt;">
<br /></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #660066; font-family: "trebuchet ms", geneva; font-size: 12pt;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">On the emotional front, we may notice heavier emotions coming to the surface such as; depression, loneliness, sadness, grief, low self-esteem and feelings of rejection and abandonment. Adding to these feelings we may notice an increase in energy vampires suckling on our life force energy. These energy vampires can leave us depleted and exhausted and it's so important that we learn once and for all how to keep healthy boundaries with these types of personalities. Energy vampires are often oblivious that they are draining to be around and don't know how to set boundaries, therefore, it's up to us to set the boundaries for them. This can be a difficult karmic challenge but we are talking about survival my friends and this karmic lesson is most certainly not going to go away on its own.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #660066; font-family: "trebuchet ms", geneva; font-size: 12pt;">
<br /></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #660066; font-family: "trebuchet ms", geneva; font-size: 12pt;">
Let's now talk about Mars being retrograde. This one may be a hard one for introverts because they will be pushed to step outside of their comfort zones, to speak up and stand up for themselves in the areas they are passionate about and have the spotlight on them. Introverts won't have to look too far to know what areas they may have to speak up about because we are working with the same karmic theme which is the do-over. Our opportunities to make it or break it are few and far in between so we must, must, must strike while the iron is hot. </div>

There is good news! If we can man/woman up and confront our long standing fears and emotional shortcomings, we can break free from these self-imposed limitations and ground our deepest and wildest dreams into our physical reality. We are doing this not only for our current self but for our previous lifetime selves as well.</div>

A super moon occurs when the moon is its closest to the Earth during its orbit around the Earth. The new moon is the phase of the moon when the moon goes "dark". The moon appears to go invisible because the sun and moon have the same ecliptic longitude. It can still be seen with a microscope but may appear to disappear with the naked eye.</span></div>

Now that we have the general definitions out of the way, we can get to the spiritual nitty gritty transmissions of what we may be experiencing and how to navigate through the astrological energies that we all have been and will be experiencing. I am a firm believer that the celestial bodies do have a tremendous impact on all aspects of our lives: spiritually, mentally, emotionally and physically. We, as living and breathing beings on planet Earth have been connected to the moon and her cycles since the beginning of time. The new moon in Gemini affects our mind, thoughts, communication skills and beliefs as we move through this astrological sign. </div>

<div style="caret-color: rgb(102, 0, 102); color: #660066; font-family: "trebuchet ms", geneva; font-size: 12pt;">
Gemini is an air sign. The element of air is connected to the suit of swords in the traditional tarot deck. The element of air is associated with our mind, beliefs, analytical abilities, and communication abilities with self and others. Gemini is the sign of the twins and shows us the duality in our lives. It brings up the illusions that we may have been creating and/or have been pulled into that may no longer be serving us. You may find yourself questioning your beliefs and/or the beliefs or illusions of others through internal inquiry. You also may come to realize that these beliefs no longer ring true to you and are ready to embrace new ways of processing your thoughts.</div>

<div style="caret-color: rgb(102, 0, 102); color: #660066; font-family: "trebuchet ms", geneva; font-size: 12pt;">
The new moon is a time to plant seeds, to start over with a blank slate. You are the creator with a blank canvas in front of you and are given the freedom to consciously choose your path for the future. Some really good questions to ask yourself during this time are: </div>

<ul>
<li><span mce_style="font-size: 12pt;" style="font-size: 12pt;">Am I being honest with myself and others?</span></li>

If you are ready to take advantage of the energies of the super new moon in Gemini, to break free from your old way of thinking, to raise your consciousness, to tap into the higher self and mind, then be sure to give a few of the following suggestions a try:</div>
<div style="caret-color: rgb(102, 0, 102); color: #660066; font-family: "trebuchet ms", geneva; font-size: 12pt;">
<br /></div>
<div style="caret-color: rgb(102, 0, 102); color: #660066; font-family: "Trebuchet MS"; font-size: 16px;">
<ul>
<li><span style="color: #660066; font-family: trebuchet ms, geneva; font-size: small;">Meditate at least 3xs a week for at least 20 minutes </span></li>
<li><span style="color: #660066; font-family: trebuchet ms, geneva; font-size: small;">Write down your goals for yourself for the next month and read them out loud to give them voice and consciousness</span></li>
<li><span style="color: #660066; font-family: trebuchet ms, geneva; font-size: small;">Whenever a negative thought/word comes to mind bless that thought/word and replace the thought/word with what you DO want</span></li>
<li><span style="color: #660066; font-family: trebuchet ms, geneva; font-size: small;">Light an incense blend that holds the vibration of the conscousness you desire to be in alignment with such as: Nag Champa, Patchouli, Sandalwood or Sage</span></li>
<li><span style="color: #660066; font-family: trebuchet ms, geneva; font-size: small;">Sage/smudge yourself at least 2x's a week or when you feel the negative self talk coming up to the surface</span></li>
<li><span style="color: #660066; font-family: trebuchet ms, geneva; font-size: small;">Don't believe everything your mind tells you, especially the judgmental and harmful criticisms towards yourself </span></li>
<li><span style="color: #660066; font-family: trebuchet ms, geneva; font-size: small;">Observe what people are saying. Are they walking their talk? There may be a few false prophets/gurus/heroes that you may be blindly following. Don't be afraid to question authority.</span></li>
<li><span style="color: #660066; font-family: trebuchet ms, geneva; font-size: small;">Stimulate your mind by increasing your reading material - your mind is thirsty for knowledge</span></li>
<li><span style="color: #660066; font-family: trebuchet ms, geneva; font-size: small;">Pay attention to the birds that come bearing messages to you - birds are connected to the element of air - they have deep and profound messages for you</span></li>
<li><span style="color: #660066; font-family: trebuchet ms, geneva; font-size: small;">Be mindful of your thoughts, thoughts are actual things and have the ability to manifest what we give energy and consciousness to</span></li>
</ul>

<span mce_style="font-family: "trebuchet ms", geneva;" style="font-family: "trebuchet ms", geneva;"><span mce_style="color: #800080;" style="color: purple;">Don't forget that we have a super moon during this new moon, this means that we will be feeling the effects of Gemini a lot more strongly than a regular new moon! The influence of this super moon has the potential to conjure up our deepest fears and worries and at the same time, we have the opportunity to plant new seeds and dissolve many of our deep-seated fears once and for all. </span></span></div>

The Full Moon tends to be a time when our emotions and intuitive senses are heightened and with these heightened senses, the Full Moon nudges us to take action in our lives.</div>

<div style="caret-color: rgb(102, 0, 102); color: #660066; font-family: "Trebuchet MS"; font-size: 16px;">
What can we expect with the Full Moon in Sagittarius? Well...it's going to be an interesting and bold moon for sure! You probably have already been feeling as if you have been "outgrowing" your current conditions. Whether it's your job, your relationships, your belief systems and maybe even your purpose seems to be morphing into a different direction as well. You may not be able to deny those inner stirrings and yearnings for change any longer, especially during this Full Moon.</div>
<div style="caret-color: rgb(102, 0, 102); color: #660066; font-family: "Trebuchet MS"; font-size: 16px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="caret-color: rgb(102, 0, 102); color: #660066; font-family: "Trebuchet MS"; font-size: 16px;">
Sagittarius connects us with our higher mind. The higher mind is the aspect of us that holds the deeper meaning of life, encourages us to keep on growing and to be courageous as we step outside of our comfort zones from what was familiar to the unfamiliar. This month, you may find that you have a strong drive, hunger and quest for reaching your goals, to push yourself beyond your old limitations and step into your own power and potential. </div>
<div style="caret-color: rgb(102, 0, 102); color: #660066; font-family: "Trebuchet MS"; font-size: 16px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="caret-color: rgb(102, 0, 102); color: #660066; font-family: "Trebuchet MS"; font-size: 16px;">
There are two activities that will help you to harness this dynamic and powerful energy during this time of the Full Moon, which by the way, you can expect to feel the effects for a couple of weeks after this lunar event on May 29th. </div>
<div style="caret-color: rgb(102, 0, 102); color: #660066; font-family: "Trebuchet MS"; font-size: 16px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="caret-color: rgb(102, 0, 102); color: #660066; font-family: "Trebuchet MS"; font-size: 16px;">
1. The first activity you can do during any Full Moon is to create a forgiveness list. Write down the people and situations that you feel and know could use some forgiving. Don't forget to include yourself for those would've, could've, should'ves. After writing down all that you feel requires forgiving, read your list out loud and then when you've gone through the entire list, release that energy into the Universe. In order to bring in new beginnings and new energy, we need to make some room. Letting go of what doesn't serve, is one of the best ways we can prepare ourselves for awesomeness and be in alignment with our destinies.</div>
<div style="caret-color: rgb(102, 0, 102); color: #660066; font-family: "Trebuchet MS"; font-size: 16px;">

<div style="caret-color: rgb(102, 0, 102); color: #660066; font-family: "Trebuchet MS"; font-size: 16px;">
2. Next, we are going to connect with the higher mind whether it's through meditation, journaling or paying attention to the higher mind as it communicates to you what is next for you on your evolutionary path. Chances are you have already been thinking about your future and how that's going to look with your new perspectives courtesy of the higher mind sending you intuitive messages and signs. During this step you really want to give yourself some time to really contemplate what and where your passions are and don't be afraid to dream big. Sagittarius isn't intimated by the size of the goal and neither should you. </div>

This month's Full Moon message for all of us is; "Go big or go home!". If you're feeling stagnant and a little nervous about taking some chances, then this is the month to muster up some confidence, get clear with your goals and then set them in motion. Be sure to journal your experiences along the way. This is sure to be a groundbreaking time for you.</div>

<br /></div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Is it really necessary to routinely check in to see if our chakras are cleared, energized and balanced? Absolutely! </span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-ZVXt1mehjB8/Wv8c0pwW-VI/AAAAAAAABUg/WvfamKyd8RUZhp-LkiLCBMGgUSg0h8_qQCLcBGAs/s1600/chakra-1063278_640.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><img border="0" data-original-height="484" data-original-width="640" height="242" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-ZVXt1mehjB8/Wv8c0pwW-VI/AAAAAAAABUg/WvfamKyd8RUZhp-LkiLCBMGgUSg0h8_qQCLcBGAs/s320/chakra-1063278_640.jpg" width="320" /></span></a></div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Chakra hygiene is a necessary practice to our physical, emotional, mental and spiritual wellbeing. If any one of these energy centers is out of balance, we will feel the effects and may experience the symptoms that are listed below. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Chakra is a Sanskrit word that means spinning wheel. We have 7 main chakras in our body and many minor chakras in between. For now, we'll focus mainly on the main 7. Each chakra has an area within the body that it corresponds with as well as the emotions, thoughts and spiritual connections associated with that chakra. After identifying the chakra or chakras that are out of balance, we can then see which physical and non-physical areas of our lives that are requiring some TLC. Often I find that when one chakra is out of whack, the others that are next to it also become overloaded and begin to wobble and fall out of their rhythm. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>Here's a brief rundown on where each chakra is and what its correspondences are:</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>Root</b> ~ hips down to the feet, associated with family, foundation and social relationships</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>Sacral</b> ~ hips, reproductive area, sexuality, creativity, fertility, passion</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>Solar plexus</b> ~ stomach area, emotions, gut feelings, willpower, empathy</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>Heart</b> ~ heart, lungs, chest, unconditional love for self and others</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>Throat</b> ~ throat area, neck, communication, creative expression, truth</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>Third eye</b> ~ center of the forehead,</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"> intuition, clairvoyance</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>Crown</b> ~ above the head, divine knowing, higher realms of communication</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>

Some people prefer to have a regular routine to ensure they don't fall out of alignment and other prefer to wait until their bodies begin to speak to them that's it's time to balance and clear. The choice is yours, but once you start and keep to a regular routine, you'll know right away when to tend to your chakras. </span></div>

If you are an empath, then you really want to educate yourself on the lunar influences of this 2nd Full Moon in March. <span style="font-size: 12pt;">Sometimes it helps to break down the information into sections so that we can comprehend what is going on energetically especially when we have significant events happening simultaneously. </span></div>

<div style="color: #660066; font-family: "trebuchet ms", geneva; font-size: 12pt;">
The Full Moon will be in the sign of Libra. Libra governs thoughts, fears, hopes, wishes and relationships. Libra's agenda is to bring balance into our lives helping to keep us hopefully centered in all areas of our lives. What can we expect from the Full Moon in Libra? Well, our fears will probably try to take center stage and control a few different areas of our lives. There is a blessing here, trust me. The blessing is that you are able to identify, embrace and dissolve the fears that you have had for years that have held you back from stepping into and embracing your truth authentic self. Libra, being the element of Air, (mental clarity and thinking) will provide you some of the solutions as to how you can put these sabotaging thoughts (fears) to rest finally. <span mce_style="font-size: 12pt;" style="font-size: 12pt;">Libras love partnership and are most comfortable when they are paired up with someone whether it's in a romantic, friendship or business setting. Since the theme of this moon is fear, you might be uncharacteristically worried about being alone or abandoned. Again, use the positive influence of Air to provide you deeper insight as to where the worry is coming from and ask your Higher Self to help you resolve this once and for all.</span></div>

<div style="color: #660066; font-family: "trebuchet ms", geneva; font-size: 12pt;">
A Blue Moon is the 2nd Full Moon in a calendar month. Blue Moons will heighten intuition, emotions, sensitivity and the sign that the Full Moon is in and in this case it's Libra. I am sure that a few lightbulbs are going off for those who are empaths and who are sensitive to their environment. It makes sense as to why you may have had a few emotional meldowns and may have witnessed a few yourself. </div>

Wait, there's more... Let's not forget the fact that the planet Mercury went retrograde on March 23rd. We have now just added a little bit of micommunication, misunderstanding, electronic challenges, and running late to name just a few of the energetic affects when Mercury goes Retrograde to the mix. By the way, there is a positive side or two when Mercury goes Retrograde. You have the opportunity to redo things such as; repairing your car, finances, health issues, and having closure with relationships.</div>

<br /></div>
<div>
<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-8gYcnwmOCTs/WpbLfaHLO3I/AAAAAAAABTE/ZCfRAxTSP8I4AgU9ZzNASGir6ZGAKT48wCLcBGAs/s1600/moon-2304103_640.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="369" data-original-width="640" height="184" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-8gYcnwmOCTs/WpbLfaHLO3I/AAAAAAAABTE/ZCfRAxTSP8I4AgU9ZzNASGir6ZGAKT48wCLcBGAs/s320/moon-2304103_640.jpg" width="320" /></a><span style="color: #073763; font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">The 1st Full Moon in March will take place on March 1st. In the month of March 2018, we will have 2 Full Moons. The 2nd Full Moon will be on March 31st. The first Full Moon in March is called the Worm Moon or Sap Moon by the Native Americans because the ground begins to thaw during this month. As the ground thaws, the worms start to break through the soil and the ground is getting itself prepared to provide healthy and nutrient rich soil for crops. It is also known as the Sap Moon because trees begin to produce sap as the weather warms up. The significance as these events is that we are able to prepare for the physical manifestation of our goals as we think about which seeds we would like to plant in our own lives and hopefully those seeds will bear fruit for us in the future. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="color: #073763; font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="color: #073763; font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">The Full Moon will be in the sign of Virgo at 11 degrees. The 11 has a significant meaning for us because numerically we are in an 11 year. 2018 - 2+8+1 =11. 11's project us forward as we move through the limitations of the human experience. 11's help us balance the dark and light within ourselves. 11's connect us with the light our soul and grounds that light into our Earthly existence helping us to remember how magnificent we truly are. Our intuitive abilities are heightened and will open up communication with the higher, higher self. Alignment with the higher, higher self brings forth enlightenment and deeper understanding of the hidden mysteries of spirit. The possibilities for us this year are huge! If the possibilities are ginormous, be prepared to grow at a rapid pace on a personal level. What does this mean? It means that there is no hiding behind self-imposed limitations. Be ready to have all of your self-sabotage brought front and center to be dealt with and healed. Trust me, it will be worth being uncomfortable in the end.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="color: #073763; font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="color: #073763; font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Virgo is an Earth sign which is reminding us to take care of our bodies at this time. Taking care of your body by eating healthier and visiting the Dr. when necessary is a must! Virgo's message about our health during this Full Moon is strong and clear. Is telling us to take care of our bodies and that we must make sure our health is a high priority in our lives.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="color: #073763; font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="color: #073763; font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">The goals for this Full Moon will be; detoxifying ourselves of unhealthy habits, thoughts and behaviors and to listen to the guidance that is available via the higher, higher self. The Full Moon will be opposite Neptune which may cause quite a bit of chaos in the way of misunderstanding others and vice versa. During this time of Pisces (March), we can expect psychic downloads, crazy - amazing dreams, our psychic abilities will be on point and we must not brush these intuitive nudges aside. We must also be aware that some of the negative aspects of Neptune may pop up in the form of; depression, illusion and our addictions may flare up on us. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="color: #073763; font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="color: #073763; font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">As you can see there is a lot happening during this Full Moon. Let's recap and break it down to the do's and don't during this time.</span></div>

<li><span style="color: #073763; font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Take responsibility for your actions and be proactive about making necessary changes</span></li>
<li><span style="color: #073763; font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Be honest with yourself and others</span></li>
</ul>
</div>
<div>
<span style="color: #073763; font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="color: #073763; font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">When we are consciously aware of the celestial influences of the lunar cycles, we have the upper hand and are able to embrace these energies to the benefit of our soul's journey. Don't forget that we are in an 11 year, therefore, the potential to manifest the dreams we have been gestating for years is finally right at our fingertips. Onward and upwards spiritual warriors!</span></div>

<div class="separator">
After selecting the crystals you would like to work with, be sure to cleanse them with sage or a crystal cleanse. Next, program them with your desired intention.</div>
<div class="separator">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator">
Some suggestions on how to work with them are:</div>
<div class="separator">
</div>
<ul>
<li>Wear as jewelry by your heart</li>
<li>Place on the heart chakra</li>
<li>Hold in your left hand</li>
<li>Place by your bedside</li>
<li>Put the crystal (s) on top of your intention to bring unconditional love into your life -Recite the intention - I am opening my heart with ease and trust.</li>
</ul>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div class="separator">
I always journal my experiences as I work any intention so that I am able to see what has shifted in my life as I align myself with my intention. I highly suggest everyone do so as well :-)</div>

There are a few celestial events that will be taking place on January 31st and as a collective we all have been feeling their effects. Just turn on the news and you can most certainly see how this cosmic influence is playing out. </div>
<div style="color: #660066; font-family: "Trebuchet MS"; font-size: 16px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: #660066; font-family: "Trebuchet MS"; font-size: 16px;">
On January 31st, 2018, we will experience a Super Blue Blood Full Moon as well as a Lunar Eclipse. What on Earth does all of this mean? Well, you could say it's a potpourri of several different cosmic events taking place all at once. Just the name - <i><b>Super Blue Blood Full Moon Lunar Eclipse</b> </i>sounds like it is a big deal. Well, it most certainly is! Don't worry, we'll break this down so that you can understand what all of this means for you and at the same time, you can ultilize this Full Moon to set some intentions into motion. What occurs cosmically, most certainly has an effect on us here on this Earth plane physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually. </div>
<div style="color: #660066; font-family: "Trebuchet MS"; font-size: 16px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: #660066; font-family: "Trebuchet MS"; font-size: 16px;">
There is a theme here with this Full Moon and that theme is all about honesty, integrity and morality. If we want to soar, thrive and embrace life, we must be willing to be transparent not only with ourselves, but also with what is taking place within our relations with others.</div>
<div style="color: #660066; font-family: "Trebuchet MS"; font-size: 16px;">
<br /></div>

<b>Breaking It Down</b></div>
<div style="color: #660066; font-family: "Trebuchet MS"; font-size: 16px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: #660066; font-family: "Trebuchet MS"; font-size: 16px;">
<b>Blue Moon</b> - When there are 2 Full Moons in the same month. The 2nd Full Moon is called a Blue Moon. January 2018 has 2 Full Moons, therefore the Full Moon on January 31st is a Blue Moon. Blue Moon energy is very powerful. I suggest creating a ceremony around this event. It's the perfect time to set your goals into motion. Some of the areas that you can work on are; attracting more money, a new job, a raise, promotion, new home, romantic partner or move. </div>
<div style="color: #660066; font-family: "Trebuchet MS"; font-size: 16px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: #660066; font-family: "Trebuchet MS"; font-size: 16px;">
<b>Super Moon </b>- A Super Moon occurs when the moon's perigee is at its closest when obiting the Earth. Translated - During its orbit, the Moon is very close to the Earth causing it to appear larger than normal. Super Moons heighten our emotional sensitivity. Don't be surprised if you and those around you are a bit touchy. The benefit to this phenomenon is that hidden or unexpressed emotions will come to the surface. What has been hidden emotionally will have the opportunity to be acknowledged, dealt with, and hopefully addressed and shifted. </div>
<div style="color: #660066; font-family: "Trebuchet MS"; font-size: 16px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: #660066; font-family: "Trebuchet MS"; font-size: 16px;">
<b>Lunar Eclipse</b> - A Lunar Eclipse is when the moon passes into the Earth's shadow. The Earth is equally between the Sun and the Moon. This event has a very strong impact on our shadow side, our unpleasant patterns, belief systems, and behaviors. Not only will our shadows be highlighted, but the unfavorable behavior of others will come to light and be placed front and center stage as well. The blessing during this time is that what is not favorable, desirable, or ethical behavior will be brought out into the open for all to work on healing and correcting. </div>
<div style="color: #660066; font-family: "Trebuchet MS"; font-size: 16px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: #660066; font-family: "Trebuchet MS"; font-size: 16px;">
<b>Blood Moon</b> - When a Lunar Eclipse takes place, the Moon appears to darken in color as it moves into Earth’s shadow. When this happens, the Moon isn't completely dark, it takes on a reddish color. What you are seeing at this time are sunbeams peeking out from the edge of the Moon, hence the name Blood Moon. The Blood Moon emphasizes the influence of being completely honest and truthful with yourself. When we are transparent, there is nothing to hide or cover up. Often there is a sigh of relief as we clear out the muck within our minds and negative ego. Let's face it, there isn't anywhere that is safe to hide. Everywhere we go, there we are.</div>
<div style="color: #660066; font-family: "Trebuchet MS"; font-size: 16px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: #660066; font-family: "Trebuchet MS"; font-size: 16px;">
<b>Full Moon in Leo</b> - Last but not least, the Full Moon is in the sign of Leo. The spotlight will be on relationships - with self and others. First, it is best if we got really clear with our motives and on the processes of how we go about pursuing the goals we have for ourselves. Since everything is being brought out into the open, it provides us with the opportunity to face what is revealed and proceed ahead with the courage of Leo. You can bet there is nowhere to hide because Leo loves attention and knows exactly how to get your attention, as well as the attention of others. Also, the Moon is conjunct Ceres. Ceres is the goddess of grain who rules independent women and working mothers. Ceres' influence will benefit all mothers who need extra strength and courage to speak up about creating equality in the workplace and in society. </div>

<b>Suggestions For This Full Moon Event</b></div>
<div style="color: #660066; font-family: "Trebuchet MS"; font-size: 16px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: #660066; font-family: "Trebuchet MS"; font-size: 16px;">
<b>Take A Full Moon Bath</b> - Taking an herbal bath with epsom, sea, and himalayan salts are an excellent way to embrace the lunar energies and help to clear and wash away what you are ready to let go of. A few herbs that work well in a Moon Bath are; lavender, sage, rose, and rosemary.</div>
<div style="color: #660066; font-family: "Trebuchet MS"; font-size: 16px;">
</div>
<div style="color: #660066; font-family: "Trebuchet MS"; font-size: 16px;">
<b>Releasing Ceremony</b> - Take some time and reflect on all of the things that you know aren't serving you. Be extremely honest with yourself and dig deep. Write everything down that comes to mind down as well as your reason as to why you are releasing them. Next, you want to ceremoniously dispose of your list. You can burn it, bury it or put it in a source of running water such as a stream or in the ocean. What's most important is that you alchemically transmute your list, turning it into alchemical gold by letting go everything that you have written down.</div>
<div style="color: #660066; font-family: "Trebuchet MS"; font-size: 16px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: #660066; font-family: "Trebuchet MS"; font-size: 16px;">
<b>Energy Work/Reiki</b> - It is a good idea to nurture yourself, Ceres would agree! With all of this revealing and releasing, you would benefit from some energy work. If at all possible, schedule a Reiki or energy healing session sooner rather than later. As you let go, it's important to fill the void with light and love.</div>
<div style="color: #660066; font-family: "Trebuchet MS"; font-size: 16px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: #660066; font-family: "Trebuchet MS"; font-size: 16px;">
<b>Crystal Energy</b> - Crystals are powerful energy transmitters and transmuters. There are a few crystals that beautifully harness the energy of the Moon such as; Moonstone, Selenite, Labradorite, Amethyst and Rose Quartz. You can carry, hold or wear your crystals as jewelry. They can and will help you navigate any changes during a lunar event.</div>
<div style="color: #660066; font-family: "Trebuchet MS"; font-size: 16px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: #660066; font-family: "Trebuchet MS"; font-size: 16px;">
<b>Clearing and Cleansing Your and Your Space</b> - It would be very helpful to keep your sage and or palo santo handy to keep you and your space at a high vibration. Remember, we are processing quite a bit as we recognize and identify behavior that we are ready to shift and release. Saging will not only help move things along, but it will also bring in the light and lots of good vibrations at the same time.</div>
<div style="color: #660066; font-family: "Trebuchet MS"; font-size: 16px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: #660066; font-family: "Trebuchet MS"; font-size: 16px;">
Now that we've covered what this rare Super Blue Blood Full Moon Lunar Eclipse is all about, hopefully you will embrace the true meaning behind this event. If we are to look at the bigger picture, we are receiving assistance from the Universe to help us to be our truest and most authentic selves. How exciting and empowering this truly is! Onward and upward my fellow travellers.</div>

<div style="color: #660066; font-family: "Trebuchet MS"; font-size: 16px;">
After teaching Psychic Development for almost 20 years, I can tell you from experience that the most popular psychic sense that students seek to develop is the gift of clairvoyance. Clairvoyance is the ability to see psychic energy in the form of; colors, shapes, people and visions of the past, present and future. For some, the ability to see psychic energy comes more easily than others. Don't worry if clairvoyance isn't your strongest gift. There are many tips on how to help develop the psychic sense of clairvoyance. FYI - Psychic "seeing" looks a lot different than how we view the world with our physical eyes. Sometimes clairvoyance appears to us as daydreaming. Be sure to keep this in mind as develop your clairvoyant abilities.</div>
<div style="color: #660066; font-family: "Trebuchet MS"; font-size: 16px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: #660066; font-family: "Trebuchet MS"; font-size: 16px;">
<b>5 Tips To Become More Clairvoyant</b></div>
<div style="color: #660066; font-family: "Trebuchet MS"; font-size: 16px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: #660066; font-family: "Trebuchet MS"; font-size: 16px;">
1. <b>Rub Your Third Eye</b> - Try rubbing the area on your forehead, the area between and just above your eyes. By doing so, you are stimulating and awakening your third eye, which is the physical area where clairvoyance comes from. </div>
<div style="color: #660066; font-family: "Trebuchet MS"; font-size: 16px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: #660066; font-family: "Trebuchet MS"; font-size: 16px;">
2. C<b>rystals</b> - Crystals can help enhance your intuition by wearing them as jewelry, placing them around the space you are in or simply by carrying them wherever you go. Some of the crystals that will help you open up to psychic visions are; amethyst, labradorite, lapis lazuli and clear quartz.</div>
<div style="color: #660066; font-family: "Trebuchet MS"; font-size: 16px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: #660066; font-family: "Trebuchet MS"; font-size: 16px;">
3. <span style="font-size: 12pt;"><b>Ohm </b>- Your third eye chakra and crown chakra vibrate when you chant the word OHM. Give it a try! They do vibrate, don't they? By toning this word, the vibration of the word activates the third eye. I recommend toning OHM for at least 5 minutes a day. After a week or so, you will notice not only your clairvoyance abilities will increase but so will your other psychic senses as well. </span></div>
<div style="color: #660066; font-family: "Trebuchet MS"; font-size: 16px;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="color: #660066; font-family: "Trebuchet MS"; font-size: 16px;">
4. <b>Guided Meditation</b> - Listening to guided meditations will help you trust the visions you receive as you follow along with the guided journey. When following along during your guided meditation, you are less likely to overthink the pictures as you receive them. Trusting what you "see" is a huge part of developing clairvoyant abilities.</div>
<div style="color: #660066; font-family: "Trebuchet MS"; font-size: 16px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: #660066; font-family: "Trebuchet MS"; font-size: 16px;">
5. <b>Aromatherapy</b> - There are several oils that help to develop clairvoyant abilities such as; frankincense, blue yarrow, patchouli, honeysuckle and peppermint. You can wear these oils, burn them in their herb/resin form as incense or place a few drops of oil in your oil diffuser. </div>
<div style="color: #660066; font-family: "Trebuchet MS"; font-size: 16px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: #660066; font-family: "Trebuchet MS"; font-size: 16px;">
Take your time and be patient with your progress as you work on developing your clairvoyant skills. It definately takes time, practice and trust and unfortunately there aren't any shortcuts to becoming more psychic.</div>
<div style="color: #660066; font-family: "Trebuchet MS"; font-size: 16px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: #660066; font-family: "Trebuchet MS"; font-size: 16px;">
Enjoy the journey!</div>
<div style="color: #660066; font-family: "Trebuchet MS"; font-size: 16px;">
<br /></div>

Try These Easy Love Spells<div style="color: #555555; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 20px;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">With Valentine’s Day approaching, many people have love on their mind. For some, they are thinking about</span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"> how they would like to express to </span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">their significant other how much they care and others are wondering how they can find the partner of their dreams. Putting together a love spell by using candles, herbs and working with an intention can help you align yourself with the partner that is for your highest and best good. It can also help you spice up your current romantic relationship.</span></div>
<div style="color: #555555; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 20px;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">A love spell is not only used to bring your love into your life, but it can help you in the romance department. I know this may sound far-fetched, but love spells do work. How and why they work may surprise you. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">The How and Why of Love Spells</span></h3>
<div style="margin-bottom: 20px;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><span style="color: #555555;">By putting your intentions on paper and projecting those intentions out into the Universe, you are able to set clear intentions that can help you manifest and be in alignment for the partner that is for your highest and best good. Sometimes writing your thoughts down on paper helps you to be more in touch with what it is you truly do want in your life.</span></span></div>
<div style="color: #555555; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 20px;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">By writing down our goals, we are sending out a petition. Spirit responds by aligning us with situations and people that are for our highest and best good. Sometimes, there are necessary steps that we must take before that soul mate comes in. This is where many become frustrated. As a society, we are used to instant gratification and because we did not have our desired result manifest right away, we think the spell did not work. The spell is actually another way of asking the Universe to help us overcome our challenges and obstacles so that we can be in alignment with our goals. This is where we must trust the process. Attention is then brought to our views on love, our healthy or unhealthy boundaries and if we are emotionally available at this time for a loving relationship.</span></div>
<div style="color: #555555; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 20px;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">After you have set your spell/intention in motion, be sure to observe what happens in your life. You can be assured there will be changes and shifts that happen in your life courtesy of your spell. There are times when life can be a little uncomfortable before things improve, and sometimes the change is a smooth transition.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">A Word or Two of Caution</span></h3>
<div style="color: #555555; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 20px;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">If you are wanting your significant other to be more loving or dedicated to your relationship and you use a spell to improve your relationship, be ready for some possible conflict. You may have stirred the pot or awakened the elephant or elephants in the room. You may have crossed a fine line by including your partner in the equation by not having their permission to include them in your love spell. All of the reasons why your relationship is out of balance probably will be magnified and brought out into the open. There are more harmonious ways of working on your relationship, like having a good old-fashioned face-to-face conversation.</span></div>
<div style="color: #555555; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 20px;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">A wiser approach to improving your relationship would be for you to use a love spell that will help <strong>you</strong> be a more loving, giving, compassionate, and dedicated partner. This may mean a little self-love spell is needed at this time.</span></div>
<div style="color: #555555; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 20px;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Spells are another way of directing your energy and thoughts through the elements of earth (herbs), water (water,) air (oils, aromatherapy), and fire (candles). They can also be viewed as a living vision board.</span></div>
<div style="color: #555555; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 20px;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Below are are a few love spells that you may like to try:</span></div>

</ul>
<div style="color: #555555; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 20px;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Begin by using the toothpick to write on your candle the following – I, (your name) am open to healthy, balanced and nurturing relationships. I love and approve of myself. It is safe for me to open my heart. So be it, so it is.</span></div>
<div style="color: #555555; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 20px;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Write the same intention on your parchment paper and place the candle on top of the paper.</span></div>
<div style="color: #555555; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 20px;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Next, rub the lavender oil around the outside of the candle.</span></div>

<div style="color: #555555; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 20px;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Journal your experiences and trust the process.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Love Spell</span></h3>
<div style="color: #555555; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 20px;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Supplies:</span></div>
<div style="color: #555555; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 20px;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Mystical Moon Magic Aphrodite Candle</span></div>
<div style="color: #555555; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 20px;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Mystical Moon Magic Aphrodite Soap</span></div>
<div style="color: #555555; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 20px;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Sardonyx crystal (relationship stone of commitment)</span></div>
<div style="color: #555555; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 20px;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Paper and pen</span></div>
<div style="color: #555555; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 20px;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">The first step is to write down the characteristics of your ideal mate. Be careful not to limit yourself by adding a name or being too narrow. You can add “or better” to the end of it if you are not sure. Take this paper and place it under the Aphrodite candle. Place the crystal in front of the candle. Call upon Aphrodite as you light your candle and say, “Aphrodite, I ask of you to bring me in a love that’s true.”</span></div>
<div style="color: #555555; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 20px;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Now you are going to take a bath and bathe with the Aphrodite soap while focusing on cleansing your auric field and preparing your mind, body, and spirit for a healthy loving relationship while focusing on how that feels. What activities are you doing together, talking about together, and how does the emotional connection between you feel?</span></div>
<div style="color: #555555; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 20px;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">When the candle is not lit, or after it burns out, carry the crystal around with you.</span></div>
<div style="color: #555555; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 20px;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Remember, nothing takes the place of honesty, clear communication and excellent listening skills when it comes to happy and healthy relationships.</span></div>
<div style="color: #555555; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 20px;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><b>Blessings and Light,</b></span></div>

<a href="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-M0kkICRZmDk/WkjXhzrOf1I/AAAAAAAABQs/QU-x4owcCeoTE9HelVyhHGWduZ8N48w4wCLcBGAs/s1600/pf-3046160_640.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; font-family: "trebuchet ms", geneva; font-size: 12pt; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="621" data-original-width="640" height="310" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-M0kkICRZmDk/WkjXhzrOf1I/AAAAAAAABQs/QU-x4owcCeoTE9HelVyhHGWduZ8N48w4wCLcBGAs/s320/pf-3046160_640.jpg" width="320" /></a><br />
<span style="color: #a64d79; font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">With each New Year, we find ourselves with an opportunity to start over with a fresh new perspective, reset our personal goals as well as review the previous year and all of the events that had transpired. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #a64d79; font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #a64d79;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">This year, we will begin the New Year on a Full Moon! That's a huge energetic and lunar push to jump-start the New Year on Monday, January 1st, 2018. The Full Moon is in Cancer during the time of Capricorn. </span></span><br />
<span style="color: #a64d79;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="color: #a64d79;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><b>What can we expect from this Full Moon on New Year's Day?</b> </span></span><br />
<span style="color: #a64d79;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">We are transitioning from the fiery and airy 2017 into the flowing intuitive waters and grounded, sage earth energy of 2018. You may have already been feeling the effects of 2018 and are super-sensitive emotionally and are sponge-like picking up on everyone's feelings as well as your environment. Your intuitive abilities are and will continue to heighten. With the earthy energy of Capricorn, you are receiving wisdom from the higher, higher self. The higher, higher self resides in a more expanded and ascended realm of existence. This energy can and will blow your mind as you experience epiphany after epiphany this year.</span></span><br />
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms', geneva; font-size: 12pt;">
<span style="color: #a64d79;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , "geneva";">Many people, myself included love to create ceremony during the time of the Full Moon and the New Year. This year, we are combining these two events into one. Below I have listed some rituals and suggestions</span></span><span style="color: #a64d79; font-family: "trebuchet ms" , "geneva";"> that can assist you as you embrace this powerful lunar event as we move full steam ahead into the New Year.</span><br />
<span style="color: #a64d79; font-family: "trebuchet ms" , "geneva";"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #a64d79; font-family: "trebuchet ms" , "geneva";"><b>Full Moon ~ New Year Suggestions For 2018:</b></span></div>
<div style="font-family: "trebuchet ms", geneva;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: "trebuchet ms", geneva;">
<span style="color: #a64d79;"><b>1.</b> <b>Releasing Ceremony</b> - Write down all of the things that you would like to leave behind in 2017. Be sure to thank spirit for all of these challenges because they have made you stronger and wiser. Read them out loud and then release them. Next, you can burn or bury them and energetically leave them behind as you forge ahead. Buh Bye Felicia ;)</span></div>
<div style="font-family: "trebuchet ms", geneva;">
<span style="color: #a64d79;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: "trebuchet ms", geneva;">
<span style="color: #a64d79;"><b>2. Write Down Your Intentions </b>~ Writing down your goals on paper helps to ground those intentions into the physical. You are using the 4 elements of creation as you do so ~ earth, water, air and fire. You have the idea (air), you feel the desire (water), you write down your intention on paper with a pen or pencil (earth) and then you bring in spirit and take action by being proactive as you set on your journey (fire). </span><br />
<span style="color: #a64d79;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #a64d79;">3. <b>Water Magic</b> ~ Since the Full Moon is in Cancer, why not do a little water magic? You can take a healing bath with sea salt, epson salt, Himalayan salt and the herbs and essential oils that correspond with your intention. Another activity would be charging up your drinking water by either placing crystals that can help you with your intention in your water. You may also write your intention on your water bottle. The water will take on the property of the words written on it. <i><b><u>Be sure to check to make sure the herbs and crystals you select are non-toxic for the skin and ingesting in your water.</u></b></i></span></div>
<div style="font-family: "trebuchet ms", geneva; font-size: 12pt;">
<span style="color: #a64d79;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: "trebuchet ms", geneva; font-size: 12pt;">
<span style="color: #a64d79;"><b>4. Surround Yourself with Positive and Goal-Oriented People</b> - We are influenced by the people and the environments we place ourselves in, there is no way around it. Consciously make the effort spend your time with people who are happy, successful and who are loving life. This is an excellent way of raising your own vibration and keeping you focused on your future goals. Seeking out a mastermind group is also an excellent way of keeping your eye on the prize.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: "trebuchet ms", geneva; font-size: 12pt;">
<span style="color: #a64d79;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: "trebuchet ms", geneva; font-size: 12pt;">
<span style="color: #a64d79;"><b>5. Know Your Limits</b> - Over-committing ourselves is something many of us struggle with and is one of the number one reasons why we do not achieve most of our goals. Writing down your goals with a loosely structured timeline is a healthy and realistic way to work towards the intentions that you have set out for yourself. </span></div>
<div style="font-family: "trebuchet ms", geneva; font-size: 12pt;">
<span style="color: #a64d79;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: "trebuchet ms", geneva; font-size: 12pt;">
<span style="color: #a64d79;"><b>6. Take Personal Responsibility </b>- When you make a mistake ~ own it! If you make poor decisions ~ own them! If you hurt another ~ own it! If you find yourself in a mess, take responsibility and don't blame others for your decisions, actions and or inaction. By taking responsibility for what we say and do, we understand that we are in control of our own lives and destinies. When we take control and ownership of our experiences, we have the power to change these experiences for the better. I would rather be at the helm of my own ship than giving up my free will to another to choose my destiny. </span></div>
<div style="font-family: "trebuchet ms", geneva; font-size: 12pt;">
<span style="color: #a64d79;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: "trebuchet ms", geneva; font-size: 12pt;">
<span style="color: #a64d79;"><b>7. Go On Vacation or A Staycation</b> - Taking time off from work as well as the the day-to-day stresses of life is one of the healthiest things we can do for ourselves. Taking a break resets your mind, emotions and physical body. Schedule regular trips to places you haven't been before or hunker down at home, relax and do nothing. The break from the day-to-day grind often is all we need to get back on course with our goals.</span><br />
<span style="color: #a64d79;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #a64d79;"><b>8. Reward Yourself</b> - Positive Reinforcement is an excellent way to reward yourself for all of the hard work and discipline you have put towards your goals. If we do not have some type of celebration as we cross the finish line, then where is the joy and recognition for our accomplishments. We will always have something to strive towards as long as we have a physical body, so you might as well treat yourself each and every time you meet your goals. You deserve it!</span><br />
<span style="color: #a64d79;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #a64d79;"><b>May 2018 bring each and every one of you ~ JOY ~ LOVE ~ LAUGHTER ~ EXCELLENT HEALTH ~ PEACE ~ SUCCESS</b></span><br />
