Want What You Want RIGHT NOW? Yes, the Full Moon is in Aries!

glowing full moon

Feeling impatient?  A little testy?  Me, too!  This week, don’t make yourself wrong for that tug of energy compelling you to do...something!  The trick with this month’s Full Moon in Aries (Tuesday, October 12) is to make sure you move in desired, consciously chosen directions rather than in an “up yours!” reactive one! Damn The Torpedoes, Full Speed Ahead! Full Moon in Aries awakens us from apathy, boredom and fear of moving … [Read more...]

Your Abundance and the Fall Equinox

balanced stones

Friday, September 23 is the Fall Equinox, the official ending of summer and beginning of autumn.  There are equal parts day and night, and the Sun enters Libra, the Astrological sign depicted with the scales of balance.  I love to push the “pause” button to reflect on this turning of the seasons because of all it represents: Equality of Sun & Moon, Gratitude for the Harvest, Balance of Feminine & Masculine Energies, Equal … [Read more...]

Just Lucky?

HiRes

I have a double confession, though not the juicy kind requiring a Priest.   First up: I’m lucky.  My numbers are called in raffle prizes.  Store clerks give me discounts.  I find front row parking spaces at malls in December.  Here’s the second confession.  The last two months I’ve dealt with my broken foot, missing out on summer fun has left me feeling decidedly cranky and unlucky. Cursed, Lucky or Blessed? Today I am BLESSING … [Read more...]

Is Your “It” Showing?

We all have an “it” we try to battle alone.  Sometimes we shroud our “it” in a fog of denial as thick as the Mists of Avalon. The “ouch” factor in that is, our “it” is more evident to those around us than to ourselves!  Before you slink into those Mists, I want you to know that everyone I’m talking with … clients, friends, family, myself (!) … well, let’s just say our individual and collective “its” are clamoring … [Read more...]

What Are You Harvesting?

What Are You Harvesting?  While etymological experts debate the origin of the word Lammas, the first week of August is well recognized as a celebration of the early harvest, particularly in Europe.  This Earth Harvest celebration is a great time for us to pause and reflect. Yes, our social media fast pace world urges us to do more and push harder, but  let’s slow down today and look. Take a moment to consider:  Which of your 2011 goals … [Read more...]

Full Moon Fun!

Camel photo

 Under last night’s nearly full moon, the rising curl of the waves sparkled turquoise  and the foamy tops iridescent as if there was an ethereal, ocean moon, lighting        them from below!  I’m lucky enough to live on the beach and see the moon’s    reflection on the Pacific Ocean all the time, and this month, Grandmother Moon  is dazzling me!   An Energetic Tug of War! On July 14, 11:39 p.m. pacific, the moon reaches … [Read more...]

Independence or Else…. What?

Fire in the sky

Standing in the kitchen on my sixteenth birthday just after passing my driving test, I fondled the chunky silver Chevy keys my father placed in my hand after taking them from his simple key ring. I felt the thrill and power of knowing I could go anywhere at anytime just because I felt like it when I put those keys on my key ring with the tassels, medallions, and leather-cased Mace spray! Our country is about to celebrate Independence Day and … [Read more...]

Summer Solstice June 21, 2011

Sun

The longest day of the year is upon us! The Summer Solstice conjures up childhood memories of: ♦ Playing outside with friends even after dinner♦ A Feeling of “I CAN!”♦ A feeling that the next school year was a long way off As an adult, the Summer Solstice might just find you working too hard, too long, and feeling pressured rather than inspired. (I say a big, fat “ugh” to feeling pressured!) Summer Solstice Is a Reason to … [Read more...]

Wednesday, June 15 is the Full Moon – and an eclipse, no less!

Lunar Eclipse

The eclipse will run for a very long 100+ minutes and begins at 1:14 p.m. pacific.  Though North Americans won't SEE it happening, we will all feel it! More on that below! What’s Your State of Mind? Grandmother moon's fullness in Sagittarius this month calls us to inhabit our "higher mind" or intuition, knowing and wisdom.  It also calls us to search for meaning and know the truth of ourselves, rather than the story told about us. The … [Read more...]

Feminine Is the New Black! (And it looks great on you!)

Red Devil's Pitchfork

Have The Goddess and The Feminine Reached a Tipping Point? I feel so full.  And a little bit self-satisfied!  Why?  I’m hearing and watching people talk about something dearest to my goddess-feminine-power-promoting heart – The Feminine! And not in the fluffy pink pillow, impossible to walk in pink strappy sandals or inappropriately revealing neckline way! (Yes, I love my fluffy pillows, strappy sandals and, well, mostly appropriate … [Read more...]
