Scorpio Full Moon Eclipse

Not only is this moon in the dark, mysterious sign of Scorpio, it includes a rare blood moon lunar eclipse, which exponentially intensifies its energetic influence! Look at the cards in this tarot & oracle card spread. It’s pretty intense. Wouldn’t you agree?

This transit is activating the collective as well as the individual on a profound level. Literally, we are being guided to allow things to end in our life that are or have been exerting a negative influence and/or pulling us off our divine path. In our daily lives, you will see these aspects intensify so that whatever this is for you: people, situations, environment, habits, etc. cannot be ignored any longer. The universe is removing all doubt you may have about needing to release them! But as always, you have a choice. It is YOU that must initiate the change or decide on a new direction. Look at the moon oracle card #19. It’s as if the universe is standing at the fork in the road with you, waiting for your decision.

Take time to be still and access your inner voice. That is where the truth is.

Knowing your truth is what causes the excess to fall away. The choice becomes easy.

Lilith is the goddess energy influencing this transit. She was demonized because she would not submit. Her truth was that she was not “lesser” and deserved to be treated as an equal. To her, staying where she was not allowed to live the fullest expression of herself would in fact, trap her within the limits of someone else’s reality. In other words, she refused to sell herself short in order to please someone else. The price she paid for her conviction was high, but not as high as if she had stayed. We all have been in situations like this. Whether individually or collectively, the result is the same. When we allow others to limit or define us, we give them power over us. As most of you probably already know, these types situations tend to get worse over time, not better.

Does Lilith’s story resonate with you?

Scorpio energy has no choice but to transform itself continuously. Its symbol is the phoenix, which repeatedly goes through the death and rebirth cycle. That is what this moon is activating within us. An internal transformation. Who are you? I’ll bet you are not the same person that you were two years ago, two months ago, two weeks ago, or even two days ago.

What in your life is ready to be released? What have you outgrown? In what area(s) of your life are you over-compromising? Is there an agreement that needs to be renegotiated or voided completely? Are you feeling “blocked”? Do you feel it is time to align yourself with a more empowered archetype?

As a side note, some of you that are psychically sensitive may be physically feeling this moons effects, especially if there is a significant emotional transition and/or psychological breakthrough coming to light at the same time. You may feel confused, dizzy, angry, overly emotional or mentally foggy. Be patient with yourself. If you are feeling this way, protect your energy. Give yourself permission to withdraw for a little while in order to recalibrate. Just as when a snake is shedding its skin, it knows it is vulnerable. Therefore, it withdraws into its hide until the process is complete. If you are resonating with this message, save the big decisions and heavy conversations for after this transit.

I’m going to take this post to the next level here. Yes, this is a powerful moon. But in addition, this transit is supported by other beneficial planetary alignments. As such, we have the ability to work with this potent energy to release the chords of ancestor karmic ties, soul contracts that do not serve our highest good, energetic blockages, painful stories, and patterns that have been repeated over and over due to soul wounds that we have incurred in this life, or even from past lives.

Mercury, the planet that corresponds to communication, is retrograde during this transit. I refer to Mercury retrograde as “Repeat a Grade”. This transit is giving us a chance to “RE-view” our story. Many of these stories have been a part of our experience for far too long as I mentioned before. Every time we re-visit the old narrative, we re-open the old wounds and we re-live the pain of it. Is time to re-lease ourselves from this toxic storyline? The Death card in this reading is our message that a cycle has reached its conclusion.

The Scorpio Moon in regards to agriculture is an ideal time to plant hearty vegetables such as squash, beans, tomatoes and leafy greens. It is said that the roots of plants are able to recover quickly from being transplanted into new soil during this moon phase.

We have Temperance in this reading. One of my nicknames for this card is “spiritual alchemy. This moon is our catalyst, if we have not begun the process already, to do “the great work of inner transformation” by burning away those old narratives and subconscious programs, in order to access the divine “gold” within. If you are reading this, this is your wake-up call. If you are not satisfied with the current trajectory of your life, you have the opportunity with this transit to turn the page and begin a new narrative.

Shifting ones thoughts to a healthier state of being can be difficult at first. If you need help with this, seek the assistance of a trusted counselor or therapist.

The Hermit & Goddess Sulis – tarot message for this week

Tarot message for this week from the Goddess Sulis and The Hermit. It appears some of you out there may be feeling the need to withdraw for a little while. Perhaps you have recently gone through a stressful experience, or maybe you are just exhausted, and even a bit jaded from the demands of daily life. Others of you may be contemplating an important decision or reflecting on your life path and purpose.

The Goddess Sulis, recommends spending time with the healing element of water to aid you in calming your mind so that you are able to access the wisdom of your inner voice.

If you are able to spend time this week or this weekend at a lake or the beach, that would be helpful. Another option is to indulge yourself with a soothing mineral bath. Put some Epsom salt in there as well as a small handful of Himalayan Pink salt. Light some candles & incense, turn off the cell phone and embrace your solitude.

If you have a decision to make, take all the time you need to carefully think it through.

Have a great week everyone!

New Moon Solar Eclipse in Taurus 4/30/22: Security, relationships, self-worth, integrity

The Six of cups is the tarot card theme for this New Moon on 4/30/22

The solar eclipse occurring on April 30th adds a potent element to the new moon! It occurs in 10 degrees and 28 minutes of Taurus, falling along the Taurus-Scorpio axis that began in late 2021. The tarot card associated with this transit is the six of pentacles. This tarot card encourages us to create a harmonic balance relating to our sense of security in regards to our money and material possessions. It also brings to our awareness our self-worth, integrity, the balance of power in relationships, generosity, benefactors, as well as fair and balanced compensation.

This partial solar eclipse connects with the partial solar eclipse that we will experience on October 25th. This means, we have the potential to feel the effects of the intentions that we set for this transit for up to six months! This allows us to make changes and/or improvements over time. Taurus is a fixed earth sign, and it can be a little bit stubborn. So, this six month interval allows us to bring about steady changes that produce long lasting, consistent results.

I encourage you to look up your natal chart and see where this transit is affecting you on a personal level. If you need help interpreting this information, let me know and we can set up an appointment to chat.

For the collective, this transit is occurring in the second house. This is the house relating to money, material possessions, our sense of value, & the physical body. Taurus is opposite the sign of Scorpio on the zodiac wheel, which is the house of shared assets. We are being asked to take a closer look at what we collect and what we share.

This eclipse is also highlighting the balance of power within ourselves and within our relationships. Self-worth and objectively seeing what one truly needs to feel happy and abundant, as well as identifying things that may be giving you a false sense of security, are themes that may be coming up for some of you.

As such, you may have a wake-up call during the next few months and decide to downsize in order to give yourself more freedom. Others of you may decide to pursue new career goals, ask for a raise, pay-off debts, adjust spending habits, adopt a healthier lifestyle, refinance your home, end a relationship or decide to strengthen the commitment.

This eclipse encourages us to follow through on what is important to us. To bring back into balance areas of our life that may have shifted into an uneven dynamic.

To walk in our true power, we must treat ourselves with integrity by not settling for less than what we deserve. This shifts our mindset to one of abundance. There is no fear of lack. Because we are not dependent on someone or something outside of ourselves to give us security and/or value. We cultivate our own garden.

Aries New Moon – The fire within

New Moon in Aries – Accessing the fire within!

New Moon in Aries April 1, 2022

Spring is the time for new growth, new beginnings, warmth, beauty, abundance. It is when birds build their nests and lay eggs, the trees begin to show sprigs of green, and hibernating animals, goddesses, gods and nature spirits wake from their winter slumber. It’s an exciting time!

The zodiac symbol for Aries is the ram. An animal that is known for its tenacity and assertiveness. In human terms, we often associate Aries with the warrior or athlete. In our lives, this translates into having the drive and confidence to take action. Whether this is a new project, a career move, athletic endeavors, buying a home, the pursuit of love, or going through with the decision to get that first tattoo, Aries inspires us to achieve.

The card associated with this particular new moon is the three of wands. We see how the character in this card has their eye on the horizon. The three of wands denotes potential as well as future opportunities, some of which may at this point, may be just beyond our reach. Or perhaps we don’t have our plan all together quite yet. But it won’t be like that for long! We are talking about the fiery suit of wands after all! The inner fire of inspiration gives us the courage we need to keep moving. The number three is one of creative potential. It’s that idea that wakes you up at 3:00 am. It’s that feeling that one must “go for it”. It’s thinking to yourself, “it’s crazy, but it just might work”, it’s knowing that you CAN do this, that your vision is within the realm of possibility. The three of wands can also indicate a potential for traveling.

It’s interesting that the New Moon falls on April 1st also known as April Fool’s Day. I see this indicative of the universe further inspiring us to have faith in ourselves and to break the mold, if we are feeling a bit stagnant. Aries, like The Fool in the major arcana, goes its own way. Aries can be a bit much for some people, but personally I love Aries energy! Ask a well aspected Aries person how they will do it, and they will respond “I don’t know how yet, I just know I will.” Just as the ram aligns with its target and charges forward, full speed ahead, their motto is often “get behind me, be beside me, or move out of my way!” Like the warrior archetype they rise to the challenge. They will push themselves to the limit to accomplish their goals.

This new moon in the sign of Aries on April 1st, is asking us to align our courage with our intentions. Are you ready to be bold? Be more independent? Begin a new diet/exercise regime? Have more faith in your potential to succeed? Maybe it’s time to show your leadership skills at work or at home! Perhaps you are ready to set some new rules in your life and assert yourself more. Is it time to step out of your comfort zone and take action? Just as our modern day athletes train and regularly push themselves beyond their physical limits in order to become stronger, this Aries new moon is pushing us to strive beyond our perceived limitations. If you really want it, exert yourself. Put in the extra effort to make it happen.

With Aries, fresh and bold is in vogue! The time is right to put yourself out there! Go ahead, try something new! Change your hair, your clothes, wear some funky footwear. How about showing a little more skin, show us what you’ve got… if you dare…. (laugh). Introduce a bold, sexy, fresh new you to the world! It’s good to shake it up once in a while. It gives everyone else something to talk about! Have some fun.

This Aries New Moon inspires us not to give in to fear. Lean in, and keep going. Now more than ever, it is vital to not allow oneself to become distracted with large scale events that for the most part, are beyond the stewardship of the individual. Instead of focusing your attention outward, turn your powerful gaze inward. Aries represents the self, the individual. Its motto is “I am”.

The major arcana tarot card associated with Aries is The Emperor. There was a saying that I read once that reminded me of this archetype. It stated “I never lose. Either I win or I learn”. That statement in my opinion, reflects the persona of The Emperor, as well as represents the zodiac sign of Aries, perfectly.

So, think about the Aries motto for a moment. “I am”. I am what? What word(s) would you use to finish this sentence?

To work with the Aries frequency, below are a few helpful correspondences. But as I always say, if something resonates that is not on this list, by all means, use it.

Full Moon in Virgo

This full moon in Virgo on 3/18/22, is the culmination of energy from the New Moon in Pisces we had on 3/2/22. See my previous blog or facebook posts for more information on this transit. To sum it up, that new moon’s theme was about connecting to one’s subconscious / spirituality. To plant the seeds of what we have been dreaming about, in order to make it a reality. It was also about wrapping up Karma and releasing old paradigms to shift into a new persona. To align our outside with who we are or are striving to be, on the inside.

So we had a chance to do some lucid dreaming at the Pisces New Moon. Now, Virgo says it’s time to get real. Virgo represents the sixth house in the zodiac. She represents work, health, service to others, self-care, attention to detail, organization, schedules, diet, the body, structure, holistic healing, and everyday commitments. She can be a bit bossy, but it stems from good intentions. She is opposite of the sign of Pisces. She balances out this dreamy water sign with a dose of physical, earth element practicality. The Virgo frequency, has pen and paper in hand and is ready to assist us. She is a mutable earth sign. She has the ability to walk into a current construct and make it better, healthier, more organized, etc. She loves to be of service, and being a mutable sign, she works best when she can improve upon something that is already there. She can take us to the next level. Virgo’s mantra is “I analyze”.

Tonight’s Full Moon in Virgo is asking you: Okay, what do we need to do make your dreams a reality? Do you want to look and feel better? Let’s initiate a diet and exercise plan. Do you want to have more money in savings? Let’s put pen to paper and make a budget. Virgo, being in charge of details, helps us micro-manage the daily aspects of our lives. For it’s what we do or don’t do each day, that add up over time. This includes consideration of how we serve others, and how we take care of ourselves. Virgo energy is spiritual and intuitive with a healthy dose of grounding.

As a side note, this full moon is in a beneficial aspect to Pluto (the planet of destruction & transformation) This additional boost gives us an opportunity to analyze and release once and for all what is not serving us, so that we can embrace fresh, new, holistic, balanced lifestyle choices for ourselves and those that we love.

The tarot card for Virgo is The Hermit. The Hermit takes time out from society, in order to re-charge and to access inner wisdom. The Hermit also speaks of being a source of light and wisdom for others. But we can only be this source of light for others, by living true to ourselves first and foremost. If you are able to help others, do it. There truly is no better feeling. But when your own light starts to become dim, have the wisdom to “know when to say no”.

March 2022 Pisces New Moon – Make a wish!

The Nine of Cups is the primary energy for this New Moon in Pisces

Tonight’s Pisces New Moon – Make a wish! The New Moon in Pisces tonight is in a beneficial aspect to Jupiter – the planet of growth, luck and expansion. Interestingly enough, the corresponding tarot card for the new moon is the 9 of cups which is known as the “wish fulfillment” card. The Moon in the sign of Pisces (both corresponding to the element of water) is a dreamy, mysterious, sensitive, intuitive, creative energy. Combined with other powerful astrological transits this month, as well as the vernal equinox on March 20th , (the beginning of the spring season) it would appear that the divine is giving us the opportunity to plant the seeds of our intentions of this new moon in VERY fertile soil here!

This frequency is ethereal in nature, therefore she is difficult to grasp with the conscious mind. This New Moon is asking us to “walk between the worlds”. Go ahead, allow yourself to float in the realm of the subconscious for a while. As I write this, the image of one those sensory isolation tanks is coming into my mind’s eye. The New Moon in Pisces is calling you to step into the world of dreams and explore what you find there.

This is an excellent moon phase/transit to do some automatic writing! Light a candle (or two or three LOL), burn some incense and allow yourself to “let go”. Be in a quiet space with no distractions. Pulling an oracle or tarot card(s) may be helpful to get the “conversation” started with your angels, guides, higher self, divine, etc. Let spirit guide your hand during this exercise. Feel free to ask questions, but you must allow the writing to flow without your conscious intervention to get the most benefit from the session.

We have Saturn and Mercury Conjunct in the sign of Aquarius. Both of these planets are comfortable in this sign. This is the house of groups, friends, the collective. This is a nice energy for brainstorming with other like-minded people! Be humble, listen, really listen, to other’s ideas. You just might learn something! Or you may receive an idea that tweaks your idea into something even better! Mercury is direct and Saturn gives form to function. Where this all leads to though, is up to you. The tarot card associated with this placement is the six of swords. This is a card denoting moving forward, making a change. It’s not easy in the beginning, as one can see in the image. But I tell my clients the people in the boat begin to perk up at about the halfway point. This is where they have crossed over the rocky waters and begin to see the new opportunities up ahead. Being the number 6, it denotes a certain amount of faith is required. How do we acquire faith? By having a strong connection with spirit, as I mentioned above. Piscean vibes!

This New Moon also denotes an easier approach, or an end to a cumulative amount of work or building. For example, some of you may be graduating from college, be recognized for a promotion at work, or perhaps you are beginning to reap rewards and/or recognition from a project or business that you have been working on for a good while now. You may also have the opportunity to release karma or energetic chords from a traumatic experience. All planets are direct this month, indicating a forward momentum that allows one to break out of dark psychological cycles or any kind of shadowy energy.

Don’t worry too much about the details right now. We have the full moon in Virgo on March 18th. She will bring us back into reality and shine a light as to what our next steps should be. As I mentioned above, the tarot card associated with this new moon is the nine of cups. Take advantage of this potent, uplifting energy, and make a wish! Be careful what you wish for because it is likely to come true! So make it a good one!

2022 is a “six” year. There is a lot of potential for growth, expansion and for shifting your life into the one that you want. We have the opportunity starting with this New Moon, to release some old paradigms. Perhaps you are ready to make changes in your appearance, your job/career, where you live, etc. to align your outer projection more authentically with who you are on the inside.

Element: Water

Colors: Purple, lavender, dark blue, light green, white, silver or gray

Crystals: Moonstone, amethyst, aquamarine, fluorite, amazonite, super 7, celestite, clear quartz, ametrine, smoky quartz.

Herbs/Oils: Chamomile, lavender, rosemary, sage, honeysuckle, eucalyptus, dandelion, calendula, mint, basil.

Seeing Beyond…

Ace of Pentacles & Two of Cups: Positive cards

Merry Monday everyone! Below is your message for this week:

Yes it’s true, your circumstances/environment may not be ideal right now. But we have the Ace of Pentacles here, which indicates a favorable opportunity and/or you are being asked to take a step in a new direction. This may be the first of many that are leading you towards the vision of what you have been holding in your mind’s eye for a while now.

The Two of Cups is also a favorable card. Some of you may have had a “mirror moment” recently. Where you know the time has come to transform in some way. Has your inner-voice or higher self been “speaking to you”? Nudging you to take action on making some beneficial changes in your life?

Maybe the time has come to step out of your comfort zone. Go ahead, put yourself out there and do some networking. Spirit is asking you to make connections with other people that will be of benefit to you either now or somewhere down the line. It appears that who or what you have been looking for is out there looking for you! Allow yourself to be seen. Consider accepting an invitation or hosting a social event or gathering, whether online or in-person.

The moon is in its waning phase this week. This is a perfect opportunity to release old baggage, negative self-talk, lack of confidence, etc. Whatever internal challenges you may be holding onto that are preventing you from living an abundant, fulfilling life. The opportunities are there, but you must have the mental and emotional clarity to see them when they show up.

Below is an excerpt from the Oracle of the 7 Energies, which sums up this reading beautifully:

“There are two ways to view the world and co-create with it. One is from a face-value perspective; what you see is what you get. The second is allowing your imagination to see beyond what something “is” right now and into to move into a place that doesn’t yet exist in the material world…. a place where anything you imagine has the potential to become real.

Don’t worry about the timing of things; that is in the hand of the Universe. Your job is to continue to imagine, take a few steps forward, then imagine some more. The Universe’s job is to make it real. What a fabulous partnership!”

Have a great week everyone!

Happy Valentines Day!

Choose the message that resonates with you!

Happy Valentines Day! I pulled three sets of cards for the collective. Whichever message you most resonate with, is the one that is meant for you!

1) Time / Strength: You are trying too hard. Give it time.

You may need to come to terms with the fact that no matter what you do, the only true control you have in this situation is how you react to it. Have the courage to let go of fear and doubt, and give the Divine time to work this out in accordance with your highest good. See this an opportunity for personal growth. Strong egos and high emotions need to be kept in balance. A direct confrontation is not advised. Finesse is required. Strength is a Leo card. This is a vibration of inner-strength, courage and leadership. You may be setting the energetic tone here, or someone may be watching to see how you respond. Show them how powerful you are, not with your words, but by your actions. Don’t allow your temper and/or passions to get the better of you. Be the best version of yourself. Take the moral high ground. Stand firm. Have faith in knowing this will work out in your favor as long as you stay calm, cool and collected.

2) Trust: / Six of Swords:Transformation occurs through acceptance. Once you accept the current situation it will automatically transform.

Look at the Six of Swords card here. The characters have accepted the fact that is time to move forward. To transcend the rough waters of the past and take the journey onward to distant shores where new opportunities await. Change is never easy, but it is the catalyst for growth. These cards indicate that there may be emotional and/or mental baggage that should be left behind. We cannot change the past, but what we can do is make peace with it and grow from it. We take the wisdom of those experiences with us as we travel onward. Is it time to move on? Note the six of swords can indicate an actual physical move. The number 6 denotes a harmonic integration of the spiritual and physical. It is a nurturing number, which can also indicate forgiving yourself and/or others. Have faith in the process. Look ahead, not backwards. Every day is a new day. This is a positive transformation. An opportunity for a fresh, new beginning.

3) Emotions are a natural and necessary part of life, but they can also distort your perception and cloud your vision. In order to see things clearly, you must let go of resentment / Ten of Cups

The Ten of Cups is known as a “happy” card. Happy life, relationships, emotional fulfilment. But are you focusing on the thorns instead of the roses at the moment? Happiness is an emotion solely based on perception. It comes from within. There is no outside person, place or thing that can make us “happy” if our heart is heavy with resentment. You are being encouraged this week, to take responsibility for your own happiness. The Ten of Cups in this reading, indicates that there are already positive things here, just waiting for you to take notice. And that there is more to come as well. Many blessings, a lot of love. Negativity can become a pattern. Consciously be aware of this and train yourself to focus on the positive aspects in your life. You will see that this emotional shift leads to some wonderful opportunities for connection and fulfilment on a much deeper level than you ever imagined.

Happy Valentines Day and have a great week everyone!

Take a step forward every day…

Knight of Pentacles from the Shadowscapes Tarot deck

Look carefully at this card. See the forest dwelling spirits dancing all around our Knight, attempting to seduce and distract him as he embarks on his quest through the enchanted forest? They’ve even hung some shiny baubles in the trees in the hopes they will catch his eye. To tempt him to stop short, to pull him away from the divinely lighted path in front of him, which represents his future.

His gaze remains steadfast however. This is a realistic, grounded Knight. He knows a successful future is laid down from each step of what has been achieved today. His future is worth more than a few shiny trinkets, that represent the folly of instant gratification. No, he understands his path has a greater purpose. He did not come this far, for the journey to end here. Flights of fancy will not ensnare this one. He urges his dragon onward.

The Knight of Pentacles represents movement within the earth element. Practical and steadfast, this card encourages one to remember that the small decisions we make every day lead us one step closer, or farther from our future goals.

I call the Knight of Pentacles the “slow and steady wins the race” card. This Knight reminds us not to give up. Even though sometimes it may feel like we are not making as much progress as we would like. It can seem insurmountable at times. But keep moving forward, even if it’s just one solid step each day. You will see. Your future self will look back and thank you. Because those small steps added up to a lot!

“It is difficult to say what is impossible, for the dream of yesterday is the hope of today and the reality of tomorrow.” – Quote by Robert H. Goddard

Have a great week everyone!

Tarot Message this week: You are worth it…

The Five of Swords, The Empress & Page of Pentacles

The Empress is a card of creation, nature, and beauty. Ruled by Venus, this divine feminine, embodies abundance and self-love. Look how relaxed she is. She is not a machine – go, go, go. She is nature. And nature is not full speed ahead all of the time. It ebbs and flows in cycles.

I feel that in this reading today, she is saying that you require some “me” time this week. And more importantly, you are to be okay with it. There is no need to explain, no excuses, no guilt. The Empress says “you are worth it”.

I love the Page of Pentacles card grounding this reading. Isn’t she beautiful? She appears to be in a modified “tree” yoga position. Balanced, full of potential, optimistic. She gives me a “tribal” sort of vibe. Her unique gifts and talents are an asset to herself and others. They are the keys to manifesting abundance in her life. But only if she takes care of herself first. She is but just a Page. She must take care not to burn herself out. And more importantly she must be careful not to squander her potential on those that do not appreciate it. I find it interesting that she too, is out in nature, just like The Empress card above her.

What’s with the Five of Swords here? I sometimes refer to the Five of Swords as the “screw you” card. But I don’t recommend you tell anyone off this week! (laugh). However, this could indicate a more direct approach is required to cut some circumstances, people, or prior commitments out of your life that are draining you. The Empress is very generous, the Page of Pentacles is young and energetic, but even they have their limits.

We have the quirky, innovative Aquarius New Moon this week, coinciding closely with the Chinese New Year in the sign of the powerful Water Tiger. These are additional energies coming in serving as an energetic “push” to aid you in making any changes that you wish to make to allow space for other, more positive experiences to come in to your life.

People grow, develop other interests. This is normal. If you are ready to do something else. It’s all good. People will get over it. You cannot be all things to all people, as if you try, you will lose yourself in the process.

The Empress does not exhaust herself to “prove” her worth to anyone. She is enough. You are enough. You are always enough.

Have a great week everyone!
