Dear Star Tribe, 💜 Bonjour, Namaste.
Sending everyone my warmest greetings and deepest gratitude for tuning in with me today! I just came back from a magical trip to New Brunswick to visit some dear soul friends that I had not seen in many years. It was my first long distance solo car trip and a beautiful, soul-healing experience! In delightful synchronicity, I was able to spend quality time by the Atlantic on the dreamy Full Moon in Pisces of September 10th. Please share your thoughts and reflections in the comments section because I love to hear from you! Let’s dive in.
Just a few hours before the Full Moon, Mercury went Stationary Retrograde and joined all the outer planets in the cosmic retro dance. We are now bathing in a time that is ripe for deeper reflection on anything and everything that flows into our awareness from the past, present and future. The collective vibe feels very fluid and multi-dimensional at this time.
The energy of Uranus is strongly emphasized because it is forming very close aspects with the Sun and Moon. We are invited to channel the gentle and compassionate energy of Pisces to facilitate a breakthrough in consciousness from Uranus. Let's be open to new ideas and experiences that can open new possibilities in our lives.
Neptune was loosely conjunct the Moon, which enhanced the intuitive, mystical qualities of the Full Moon skies. This was and still is an ideal time to slow down, consciously calm the mind and open our heart-space to feel the most loving connections with people, the oceans, the planet as well as the cosmos.
As the last planet in our solar system, Neptune represents the doorway between our system and the rest of the galaxy. I love this reclassification of Neptune because it better echoes its rulership of the sign of Pisces, the last sign of the Zodiac. The Sun in Virgo opposite the Moon and Neptune in Pisces connects the most finite, physical aspect of human life (Virgo) with the most infinite and ethereal dimension of human experience (Pisces).
The connection between Virgo and Pisces always reminds me of an ashram, which is an intentional, spiritually focused community. Many years ago, I had the opportunity to visit some ashrams in India. Everyone works together to prepare meals, clean and operate the ashram to support the community. I feel that the world could greatly benefit from an infusion of this cooperative and compassionate way of living in the world.
I sense that the universe is asking us to tune out some of the disruptive ‘noise’ of the outer world and tune in to the calmer frequencies of our inner soul/psyche, through meditation, contemplation and deep breathing. I am sure that many of you have noticed that this calm state naturally leads to feelings of connection with the world soul and heartbeat of a loving and wise universe. The divine has many names, but it’s the feeling of pure, warm love and beauty that that we can embrace, surrender to, flow with and enjoy anytime, anywhere. The Divine truly is omnipresent.
May the ongoing luminescence of the Full Moon inspire us to rekindle the sacred flame of love within the hearts of all. I was guided to share this visualization: take a few moments to breathe, feel and visualize this divine light reflecting on a calm ocean within you. When you are ready, see yourself connecting with more and more hearts in a gigantic heart of light around the planet. I hope you enjoyed that exercise as much as I did!
“If you are fully present, the rain of Dharma will water the deepest seeds in your consciousness, and tomorrow, while you are washing the dishes or looking at the blue sky, that seed with spring forth, and love and understanding will appear as a beautiful flower.” ~ Thich Nhat Hanh
