New Moon in Aquarius. Emotional Volcanoes plus a Breath of Fresh Air.

New Moon in Aquarius. Emotional Volcanoes plus a Breath of Fresh Air.

by Monika Carless | Jan 23, 2020 | Musings

Plucking myself from the anticipation of beginning a new decade, and the heaviness of cosmic activity thus far, I raise my head in defiance of the feeling that each day has been as three: intense, expectant, deliriously demanding. We shuffle through with feet barely...

Virginia Woolf: Essential Quotes from an Authentic, Sovereign Woman.

by Monika Carless | Jan 23, 2020 | Musings

Eclipses create such powerful imagery, reflecting Eclipses create such powerful imagery, reflecting the initiation, descent, the excavation and the rising of whatever quest we are on individually and collectively.

I hope that the Leo Sun is warming the path you are on. This is an evocative time, Leo Season, where we can be more in touch with our heart and heart-centered living. 

We feel the eclipse, not only do we see it - it isn't a one day event but a story that weaves itself through us recalling past eclipses, solidifying wisdom, asking questions, providing answers. An eclipse is as much a living thing as you and I. 

Blessed be.

Eclipse Season this Spring took me down an unexpec Eclipse Season this Spring took me down an unexpected road in ways I could not have anticipated. Losses, (a friendship, health, direction, inspiration) I stand at the feet of the Goddesses grateful that this autumnal eclipse season has brought clarity (some) while opening my heart and mind to new possibilities. I still mourn that friendship, though. It was an honor to be in that sphere.

One of the many gifts of exploring my mother wound One of the many gifts of exploring my mother wound has been to see life through my mother's eyes, and to imagine her fully as a human being on her own path. To let go of my expectations of her was part of the reconciliation that happened in my heart. Since my mother's passing we have become much closer, ironically, because the physical distance has made room for my taking things less personally.

It actually wasn’t intentional at first, to take a It actually wasn’t intentional at first, to take a break from my business, posting, etc. - although ten years of anything deserves a sabbatical. I wasn’t feeling well and was committing to family for a period of time, and those two things became the priority. The timing was interesting because I had just had a 5k jump in followers on IG and the energy was full and ripe and promising. Understanding the algorithm has been frustrating at best, demoralizing at its worst. I truly had to let go of the drive that had been carrying me for years. I create because I want and need to, there is simply too much energy coursing through my body to leave it be. But this time, I felt the drop of inspiration succinctly. I could only focus on what absolutely had to be done, and what my body needed in terms of support. Client numbers dropped significantly. Finances plummeted. Desire to accomplish any goals I had set for this year disappeared. But the truth is that I had already done the work to know myself as more than what I can produce. Still, I was surprised at how peaceful it felt to just not worry about the consequences of taking a break. I knew the nudge that my cup was refilling would arrive, and it has. I feel strong for allowing the sense of not knowing if I could ‘catch up’ to be my guide. I don’t know anything for sure. I’m still not fully well physically but am getting there. Chasing an algorithm creates an internal violence against oneself. That’s probably the thing that has landed the loudest for me, and what a gift it is to listen deeply to one’s inner sense of harmony.

Sending you love...

August is the time of first harvest, Lughnasadh, b August is the time of first harvest, Lughnasadh, both what has come of spiritual and physical seeds.
It is the time of preserving, putting down stores in the pantry, saving the nutrition of the Summer's sun for the dark days of winter. When light is low, we can internalise the sun through our preserves.
August is the very first flush of Autumn according to the traditional pastoral calendar of the Celts.
Swallows begin to gather, crickets sing their evening songs, grains ripen in the fields and corn waves its golden tassels.

Notice where the sun rises and sets, how the days shorten slightly, and the promise of the journey to the Underworld beckons. 

August 6, Last Quarter in Taurus
August 12, Dark Moon in Leo, Solar Eclipse
August 13, Witch's New Moon *for Spell Casting
August 19 and 20, First Quarter in Scorpio/Sagittarius 
August 28, Full Moon in Pisces, Lunar Eclipse

Blessed be, Witches!

Close to the Earth. Close to the Great Mother. Clo Close to the Earth. Close to the Great Mother. Close to and in reciprocity with Community… these were the ways of our Pagan ancestors, for survival and expressing gratitude for the gifts the soil provided.

This relationship is still vital, though we have been tamed into forgetting natural cycles.

But we haven’t forgotten, have we? We are remembering the pulse of the Old Ways and returning home to what nurtures not only oneself but others.

Blessed Lughnasadh, if you celebrate this ancient festival (Northern Hemisphere). Bake bread, feast, share the bounty of whatever abundance is present in your life.
