Full Moon Musings

We live in extraordinary times. The last few weeks have been ‘crunchy’ for many of us sensitive to energies – those of ourselves, our environment and the cosmos. After the recent Solar Flares we now enter the time of the Eclipse Cycle of Cancer and Capricorn which is one of the most significant events in astrology. As we know from our Moon Mná Diary-Journal, Eclipses fall on either the New or Full Moons. An Eclipse on a New Moon is known as Solar Eclipse and we are due one on 2nd July which offers a time of new beginnings and fresh opportunities. An Eclipse on a Full Moon is known as a Lunar Eclipse and we are due one on 16th July, classically a time of letting go and release. Eclipses magnify things and often bring undeniable change or events into our lives. They can also signal pivotal turning points that help to guide us in the right direction on the three days of the Moon phase or as a slow release lending up to and after the Eclipse. If you have been feeling that the very foundations of your life have been turned to sand, breathe and know that you are not alone. We are being invited to re-calibrate some aspect of our life to create even stronger yet more flexible anchors and live in a new way. We are called to live from the heart not the head with honest compassion for ourselves, our loved ones and crucially our beautiful Mother Earth.
