As the sun sets on this cycle...send away with it, what is not wanted

-
Time does fly...for sure. Its seems as if only a day or so ago I sat to hear the messages and lessons for this Leo Lunar Cycle. But, in reality, we are at the close of this cycle, the waning phase. Waning can be viewed as the time to think over what has been gained during this cycle and whatever can be discarded, let it go, RIGHT NOW!!! One note though, the only way something will depart us is if we want it to. Know what you want to let go of and then, do just that, LET IT GO. This waning cycle is in Gemini, and how appropriate that is or even precursor like because Mercury is the ruler of Gemini and the awaiting Virgo Lunar cycle that is a week away. So the energy you feel currently, get used to it because some strain of that will also be available in the next cycle.

Mercury urges so much from us, and often in ways we rarely see. As a person who was born under the sign of Mercury, all I can say is, don’t take yourself or your journey too seriously, if you do your feelings will be all hurt up. Mercury is a great time to focus on real personal balance. Are you where you should be? Are there things this waning time that you want to let go of? Have you balanced the physical, spiritual, financial, etc? One thing to remember about Mercury is that its energy can represent the “trickster”, so, ask knowing full well that the answer you get might not be what you anticipate. Also, incorporate that trickery into your everyday life, recognize it, utilize it and make friends with it, rather than being on the other end of it, mad as SH*T that things didn’t go exactly as you planned them. Mercurial times can be rip roaring and full of true humor or personal traumas in need of therapy. Its all how you look at them. As they say in sports, YOU MAKE THE CALL.

While I am waning I will really strive to forge this new relationship I am developing with my body. One that on days seem like its full of an eon of experiences and then other days I feel like a babe taking her first steps. One thing I know for sure is that this is a newness that I have called into being to enlighten me and the rest of us. So, here goes everything and while I am in waning land, gonna drop old, cumbersome, unfriendly realities, they just weigh too much for me to carry around.

Below are a few of the domains Mercury can influence.

  Firstly, the fullness Can you feel it? Did you see it? This morning at about 7:11am (EST) the moon reached it's fullness, in Sagittarius no less. This time of the lunar cycle is great for things to bubble over.  Now remember, that can be both positive or negative.  So, I say to us all, accept that extra energy we feel.  Don't shy away from the increased emotionality that is hovering over us. As I stated above this is a Sagittarius Full Moon, which means that the planet ruling this Full Moon is Jupiter, that benevolent, all knowing, and amazingly royal planet.  Look for positive surprises over the next few days or so.  Jupiter is known as a bestower of gifts, sometimes gifts that we thought were long forgotten about.  Now focus that energy inward To add spice to all of this right before that moon peaked this morning a lunar eclipse occurred. And remember eclipses are the ability to manifest our wants and desires more than other times of year...

Shining like the SUN....corner illuminations Bringing back the light. That’s what this waning phase is really about. During the waning moon emphasis should be on preparing for the coming new moon and removing things from your life that YOU ARE WILLING TO LET GO. That’s right folks, we are going to have to give up some or all of that emotional baggage we are carrying around for free. For all the times you have felt it was too dark to move, for all the days when you wished things were a little lighter, for each chance you realized you didn’t have enough light, here he is...LIGHT and in the brazen sign of Leo. It has been properly placed at the end of this calendar you. Are you seeing a setup, I think so. I know for me, this waning time is going to focus on my ritual process and me as a ritual process. I am going to use this light to shine into every part of ritual I create, intuit, and recall from my ancestral memory. Also, I want to take into the new calendar year a pers...

Let us not forget the Leap Year

credit: theoriginof.com Look what leaped in? Once every four years we are gifted with an extra day, some extra energy, an additional chance to get it right! Well on this coming Wednesday, that opportunity comes up yet again.  I prescribe we think less of a Leap Year as the year of governmental leadership, but rather it's the year we take that necessary step towards our empowerment.  Having said that, let's check where things are "lunarly" this Leap Year.   Watch as it waxes At this point in the cycle we have moved out of the New Moon space and we should all be diligently working towards our intentions.  This phase of the moon is called "Waxing", meaning we are actively building and constructing our paths each and every moment.  No second guessing, just movement and strides right now.  This Leap Year is aligned with the Waxing Half Moon in Gemini, which some of us may know is Mercury ruled.  Yes, Mercurial energy can be tricky, but knowing t...
