The last few weeks have presented change and emotional stirrings for a lot of us. Astrologically there were important planetary shifts, which I have felt strongly, but I am not diving into as I am still trying to understand them myself. The full power Sagittarius full moon brought in potent energy of adventure, spontaneity and idealism. For me it was about being in acceptance of another's choices and learning to make decisions for me, without giving my power away too much to another.
And now Mercury in retrograde AGAIN, causing emotional stirring and big teachings. The lessons are intense and 'difficult' for most of us because we are guided to go deeper into the way we communicate with SELF. On a very physical plane, we can be challenged technologically, testing our patience again and again. And on an emotional level, the retrograde gives us an opportunity to communicate from truth. By thinking twice before expressing what we need to say, refining it and filtering it through our hearts. And remembering that we are all riding this wave of learning.
And then this winter solstice coming up on Saturday 21st, invites us to focus on grounding and nurturing. We are asked to really look at what we are ready to let go of, as it is no longer serving us on our path. And begin to focus on something new, positive and complementary to our lives. On Saturday a short meditation focusing on this letting go and embracing, or even a fire ritual burning the old and calling in the new. Ritual can be a powerful form of integrating our intentions.
Finally, if life has thrown challenges, remembering to see those as a gift and an opportunity for growth and connection to something greater. Remember that there are no accidents and there is only room for more expansion in our lives.
Blessings and thanking you all for giving me the chance to also remind myself of this powerful learning journey.
