Gemini New Moon: Juggling Everything

May 24, 2017 By Jacqueline

Curious puzzle,
variety of life.
Patterns, connections.
Ideas, cross-pollination.
Perception.

Options. Choices.
Go with the flow,
the effervescence, the whim.
Holy curiosity.
Air cannot be grasped.
Inspiration on the wing.

Up in the air,
juggling everything,
live by your wits.
Improvise, adapt
and laugh!

Open the windows
and welcome the fresh air.
Ask questions and see what’s there.
Choose to stay interested,
discover connections,
clarify integrity,
and activate wholeness.

☽ Gemini New Moon May 25, 2017 12:44 pm PDT ☼

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

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

Taurus New Moon: Beauty in a Broken World

April 25, 2017 By Jacqueline

Taurus New Moon seeds fertile ground
where desire flowers and
creativity blooms in pleasure’s garden.

Lush song of
roots and shoots,
spiraling vines,
leaves and flowers.
Delicious desire stream
of sensual pleasures.

Call to this moon
for attraction and satisfaction,
for stability,
center and ground
in this crazy buzz*
tempo entangled technoverse.

Instinctive, practical and fertile
are qualities resonant with this moon.
Apply yourself to the task at hand,
take a steady pace
with time to pause and smell the flowers.

Reality check.

Here is this ground beneath your feet.
Here is your precious body,
your one and only body
in this precious life.

Be nourished
by what really feeds you.
Be whole.
Be here and be now.

☽ Taurus New Moon Meditation ☼
Within your heart is a rose,
a sweet rose bud.
Inhale deep into your heart,
each breath opens a petal.
Sweet rose, fragrant rose,
petal by petal. Breath by breath.
Be patient with yourself.
Allowing and being in your fullness.
Be with the beauty you are.

When your rose is fully open,
inquire within: What is my heart’s desire for this lunar cycle?
Listen and simplify a phrase that states your intentions for the moonth ahead.
Begin to focus on each exhalation as you release your intentions.
Follow your meditation with an embodied activity such as singing, playing music, barefoot dancing, yoga practice, anointing your skin, drinking, eating or gardening, you get the picture… Enjoy!

*re: Crazy Buzz! Mercury (retrograde) conjuncts Uranus in Aries (April 28, 7:49 am PT)
This is a super restless, possibly irritable and rebellious signature. Beware of impulse purchases, thoughtless remarks, hasty decisions. Invite brilliance, innovation, breakthrough! Our challenge is to incorporate the contradictions alongside the slow and peace-loving Taurus New Moon.

Gain perspective that is aligned with your life’s design. I can help you with compassionate insight through navigating uncertain waters. Astrology and Tarot are mediums through which my gifts as a life-long intuitive can serve you. Contact me if you’d like me to dive deep with you into your personal universe.

Thank you for what you wrote re: Mercury in retrograde. I read it before I left for my visioning retreat, and just connecting with what you had to say helped tremendously! You were so right on! The visioning itself was wonderful and powerful. It’s amazing how much different the world felt when I woke up last Friday morning, too. Thanks for your support & blessings” Nikki P.

Libra Full Moon: Path of Balance

April 10, 2017 By Jacqueline

Catalyst of constellations
arouses unsolved questions
and agitates the crux of change.

The back and forth of indecision…
or pushing a point
or being pushed.
This way, that a way
pulled in every direction.

Responsibility for what is essential
is the driving core of transformation.
Rebellion challenges, disrupts, demands:
Do it a different way.

The path of balance
calls forth resourcefulness, creativity
and grace under pressure.

Each deep breath brings
the next breath.
Each moment
is followed by another.

Be courageous, be bold,
take the risk to be kind.

Libra Full Moon
April 10, 2017 11:08 pm PDT

This Full Moon in Libra supercharges the axis of the feminine and masculine qualities within us. Retrograde Venus incites us to ignite our feminine values. The retrograde began in Aries (March 1), standing with strength to defend our values. Venus entered Pisces (April 2), where we swim in the waters of the subconscious to awaken and perhaps reclaim our unheard, ignored or hidden voices. We may discover unintended sacrifices that have been made or fantasy that once seemed a reality.

Venus squares Saturn twice (April 8 and April 21) within a short period of time, which colors the span with sober considerations regarding boundaries in relationships and financial decisions. Discontent. Restraint. Thwarted desires. Conservative values. Defining what (or who) is worthy of commitment.

When we are in touch with our desires, needs and feelings, we can acknowledge and respect ourselves. Rather than forcing circumstances, we are able to trust our integrity. Intuitive faith is our ally as we seek “relatedness” in our lives. Yes, we can deceive ourselves or be misled. We also have a choice to inquire with fresh eyes as denial or deception is revealed. Venus direct (April 15), we emerge somewhat tender and wiser. By the time Venus enters Aries (April 28), we are ready to initiate with conviction. Time to move on.

The ancient Meso-Americans timed their battles and sacrifices with the cycle of Venus we are currently experiencing. Taking this cue, we may ask –
What is worth fighting for in my life?
Is there something I must sacrifice in order to get what I want?
How may I walk my path with balance and trust my decisions and direction?

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.
