The Warrior and me  Even as I sit to write this, I am in amazement at the Warrior that is me, that is you, that is us.  In a time when we are often misguided into what bravery, courage and protection means I am here to tell you the Warrior Self does have a place, just nowhere near what we see everyday. Mars rushes in Okay, so at approximately 10:37am (EST) today, Mar. 22, 2012, the moon saunters into Aries and we begin again; another Lunar Cycle commences.  Aries, the total representation of the infant in all of us holds so much love, hope, and promise for us all.  Aries, seen as the Warrior is ruled by the planet Mars.  Another symbol we hear much misinterpreted information about.  Turn that power around on you Instead of flatly seeing Mars as a time to charge in all situations, let us step back and think about all of this one good time.  First, Warrior energy is totally up to design by its wielder.  Warrior can mean clearing of obs...

credit: grandaspirations.org Something new comes At approximately 1:14am (EDT) Tuesday, March 20, 2012 we usher in another season and one of my favorites, I must say...Spring!  The Spring Equinox is a day that reminds us of the balance that light and dark can have in our lives.  Gone are the long dark days of Winter, now we will be blessed with the bountifulness of light. And the question is Spring, a time of rebirth and fertility can also stand as a personal tipping point for each of us.  What goals or dreams have we not yet dreamt?  Do we really have balance between the light and dark parts of our life paths?  And lastly, if we have exhausted all of our options are we worth the efforts to begin, yet again?  These questions can be amply answered and so much more this time of year.  As our agrarian ancestors knew it, now is the time to decide and plant those seeds: seeds of hope, seeds of courage, seeds of love, seeds of progress, seeds of lif...

credit: solstation.com  Welcome Dear Mercury Yes, we have entered into another round of the planet Mercury going retrograde, it's official. And no doubt you may have already felt its affects.  The dates this time are March 12 through approximately April 4, however let's be proactive and give our selves a week on each side of that.  So, for those of you just coming to this point, when Mercury retrogrades it gives off the impression of moving backwards, so things controlled by Mercury will be askew, to say the least. So, this is how it's gonna be Mercury, the planet often mentioned third when speaking astrologically, after the Sun and the Moon, rules communication.  That's communication of all kind whether that's face to face, via email, via snail mail, Goddess bless you if you have a video conference or presentation during this time. Basically, anytime you may need to give information to another being or even yourself, communication can break down. ...

Credit: globalimages.net   Soaring in a full sky   As we look up into the dusk sky tonight we see a Full Moon that is still almost full.  As such we are fortunate to have two more full days of magic, power, and conjure time at our disposal.  For you see, Full Moon time is like no other during a lunar cycle.  Although saying Full Moon brings to mind stereotypical images of fools, wolves, and craziness what it truly is, is spiritual energy surges that are unknown and misdirected. I liken this Full Moon as a time when we can take flight in ways we never have before.  Let us soar to the highest of heights!   Gifts of the vivacious one The Full Moon this cycle dawned in Virgo, that beautifully precise and detailed oriented child of Mercury.   Okay, yes retrogrades are coming, but that's going to be another post, let's just focus now, while we still can, on harnessing all that the vivacious Virgo Full Moon has for us.  Virgo time is abo...
