My "Inner Spring"

-
The budding begins
With all this talk of late winter weather I challenge us all to recognize the beginning, the beauty, and blossoming that is Spring.  Defined spring is the season that falls between winter and summer and the time of year when vegetation begins.  So, although our days are not sunny and glistening yet, allow the easing nature that is springtime begin to descend upon us.  This is a day by day process not a sudden maturation of the season.

What to do?
On the Earth based Wheel of the Year Spring represents a time when we are clearing, planning, planting, and brewing.  Now is the time of activity, sunshine and wind.  Although we know April showers will bring May flowers nature's elements are only here as a complement to the wonderful works that are going on in our souls.

Proper perspective
I suggest for Spring we focus on the interconnectedness we have with all things that coexist with us on this planet.  From our family to our friends, from the moon to the sun, from the laughter of children to the honking of horns, all is connected.  Below I offer just springboards of ideas of how to re-connect with all that is around us.  Behold, Spring is here and she has great lessons, memories, and premonitions for us, all at the same time.


Spring Concepts

Constant Communication
This season know that the loved ones we have, whether living or not, are always there to hear and give us guidance.  Rather than pick up the phone to talk or text, be silent and know that your thoughts are reaching them.  Now, true, for those of our loved ones that have passed on, it may take a bit more work, but sometimes its how we listen.  It can be a color we see or a favorite song we hear, believe me our ancestors speak to us constantly, it's really how well we listen. 

Fusion rather than Separation
The best way I can describe this concept is the phrase "it's not either or but both and".  When I learned and accepted that understanding it was like my whole world changed and seemingly overnight.  To  know that we have the power to bring together any and all things is a feat for us humans.  And more than knowing the doing is even more powerful.  During this Spring when things or people ask you to choose and you don't want to invoke the Fusion rather than the Separation.

Time and Space
We've all heard the concepts of time and space, well I say let us all know that Time and Space can only rule us if we let it.  We give them power.  When we acknowledge our role in allowing them to rule our lives we can then release the hold these huge ideas have over us. And Spring is the perfect time for that.  In our daily walk let's remember we don't have to be ruled by Time and Space just aware that they exist.

Spring Affirmation


Keep me focused on the embedded connections I have all around me,

So I may access and exude the interconnectedness that is me, other people, animals, planets, the elements and celestial bodies,

I am the source of power that I seek, need, find and wield, no longer do I question, this Spring I listen and know

  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...
