Cancer Solstice Gateway

June 20, 2017 By Jacqueline

Life on Earth,
fueled by the Sun,
the wheel is turning
and a new season is born.

Take pause
as the Sun stands still.

How can the magnificent Sun,
in its powerful, perpetual burning,
actually stand still?

It is our perception
as the Sun reaches its northernmost declination
at the Tropic of Cancer.
This re-turning appears as a standstill.

Summer Solstice June 20, 2017 9:24 pm PDT

☽ As Above So Below ☼

Where is the stillness in your life at this moment?
Maybe you’re saying that there is none;
the long days of constant busyness have captured your evenings
and early dawn arouses with get-going, anxiety or excitement.

Create pause and invite stillness.
You may find it, try it and see or feel or notice
as spaciousness unfolds in stillness.

Take a hold and turn the golden key,
unlock the gateway of Solstice Light.
Open the sacred portal of your Life Fire.
Feel your heart beating as one
with the glowing heart of summer.
You are alive.

The Sun stands still for several days,
You haven’t missed it,
don’t hurry up or stress about it.
Create pause and invite stillness.
You are alive!

Affirmation:
I celebrate my strength and welcome Summer’s abundance!

Looking ahead? Step back and look at your life from a fresh perspective: Contact me for an Astrology or Tarot Reading.
I am here for you.

Sagittarius Full Moon : Spaciousness

June 9, 2017 By Jacqueline

Seek the wide open spaces
with your moral compass at your side,
ride your horse to a higher ground.
Step up, look around,
look ahead beyond fear,
judgement and expectations
to gain an expansive vision.

Consider all the data, the news,
the swirl of communications
and find the constellations
of patterns and connections
that sing and ring of Truth,
and that bring cohesion to the chaos.

Mystery is always a part of the equation
no matter how you add it up.
It’s all about perspective.

“Presence is a state of inner spaciousness.” Eckhart Tolle

Seek the wide open spaces
around you and within you.
Breathe into and expand your awareness within;
experience spaciousness
in the tangled knots
of all of life’s complexity.

“It’s a transformative experience to simply pause instead of immediately fill up the space. By waiting, we begin to connect with fundamental restlessness as well as fundamental spaciousness.” Pema Chodron

In the spaciousness of now is
your jewel,
your star,
your song
that sparkles and rings your Truth.

The full moon amplifies the tension
between instinctual wisdom
and rational reasoning.
Your yearning for answers,
for direction,
for clarity and truth
is the tension of Sagittarius’ taut bow.

Allow the tension to empower your intentions.

You are the arrow and you are the bow.
Full Moon flame. Full Moon fire.
Allow the tension to empower your meaningful intentions
and release your flaming arrow of truth.

Sagittarius Full Moon June 9, 2017 6:09 am PDT

“Knowing is not enough; we must apply. Willing is not enough; we must do.” Johann Von Goethe

Jupiter in Libra goes Direct

Jupiter is at a standstill (very powerful placement coinciding with this full moon!) as it goes direct on June 9 (retrograde since February 5, 2017).

Relationships are the Lens through which the Lunar Wisdom is Reflected.
(Why? Because Jupiter is the ruler of Sagittarius and Jupiter is in Libra).

Talk about it.

Maybe you’ve been holding back or you’ve already blurted it out. You want to keep the peace, but there are things you need to express. Or you’re dealing with someone who has no sense of boundaries, with excessive, over-the-top behavior.

It’s a good time to find common ground. Repair the cracks, if you can. If you or someone else has been living in a relationship of inflexible ideals, it may be time to to move on.

We run the risk of tactless speech. How can we contact our truth and express ourselves diplomatically? There is an emphasis here on freedom and cooperation. There is great potential for growth in consciousness. A new perspective emerges and there is an optimism in moving forward with greater clarity and confidence.

☽ Sagittarius Full Moon Contemplations ☼
What are the distractions that keep me from being present in the now?
How may I embody my beliefs?
How may I apply what I’m learning to my relationships?
What is the truth that I choose to empower for this full moon?

Be seen and understood. My clients consult me for helpful perspective and compassionate insight. As a result, their self-understanding and intuitive capacities are honed and strengthened. Astrology and Tarot are mediums through which my gifts as a life-long intuitive are revealed. I am here for you.

A twinkle in your eye or a speck of pollen?

Overthinking, worry, distraction. Sometimes the wind is just too much. Itchy, sneezy. It’s annoying, this dusty debris. The seasons are changing. Find balance in movement and stillness. Take note as to your allies in adaptability during this time of transition. Acupuncture. Herbs. Expressive Movement. Restful sleep. Clarity. Witness. What do you need?

The New Moon is the time to make your intentional choices.

What is needed now? Listen to your body. Notice what foods are fresh. Adapt your diet to seasonal change. Consult your celestial compass: What are the conditions and optimal ways to navigate? What are your possibilities and options?

Your eyes. Your ears.

Information overload? Perhaps there is news that is calling you to take action. Or, you may need to step back, take a break and choose a book to read instead of the constant barrage of news. Refresh your senses. Get outside and listen to the breeze, literally. Observe the light and notice what’s in the air. There may be a message in the birds’ song, in the buzzing of bees or glimpsed in the flight of a dragonfly’s wings. Is it time to bring those golden sacks of pollen back to the hive?

Your breath.

Gemini is the primary air sign. What is more primary than breath?! Be aware of the quality and rhythm of your breath. That’s right. Without criticism, evaluation or judgement. Just notice the circulation of air through you. Breathe. Simply Be.

Inspired by Einstein

Don’t think about why you question, simply don’t stop questioning. Don’t worry about what you can’t answer, and don’t try to explain what you can’t know. Curiosity is its own reason.

Aren’t you in awe when you contemplate the mysteries of eternity, of life, of the marvelous structure behind reality? And this is the miracle of the human mind — to use its constructions, concepts, and formulas as tools to explain what man sees, feels and touches. Try to comprehend a little more each day.

Have holy curiosity.”

Albert Einstein

Be seen and understood so that you can have greater clarity and compassionate understanding of yourself.

Scorpio Full Moon: Dive Deeper

May 8, 2017 By Jacqueline

Scorpio’s persistent passion
strips away pretense.
Full moon finger points
to resistance, indolence, heels digging in,
full moon illuminates our nakedness,
our foibles and potentially our truth.

Moon and Sun in polarity.
Scorpio and Taurus
both strong willed and determined to
fulfill cravings and desires,
can lead to a great dissatisfaction
and a bottomless pit of hunger.

Up-welling tension
breaks stasis,
unplugs congestion,
motivates inertia.

Move through it and
get your groove on.

Go to your core, your center
your kernel, your truth.
Unravel the tension, the noise,
the denial, the distraction,
so that you can contact
and vibrantly know your truth.

This lunation drives attention to what is essential, what makes us feel alive.

Breathe deep into your deepest self.
Release the struggle.
Soften the edges.
Dive deeper in
to your hidden self.
Trust your transformation
from the inside out.

Our real journey is interior; it is a matter of growth, deepening, and of an ever greater surrender to the creative action of love and grace in our hearts.”
Thomas Merton
