GAIA BLOOD MOON ECLIPSE: Radical Soul Awakening

We are in POWERFUL full moon eclipse energy. The moon medicine and opportunity now is nothing less than radical soul awakening. If we choose it. The portal is already open beloveds and this eclipse is a gateway for us to ignite (Aries) deeply feeling love (Libra) as the core of who we are and shed any fears that may have kept us feeling safe, but small. It is now time to tune in to the seemingly strange occurrences taking place. This BLOOD MOON is shaking our foundation loose of any falsity in our lives, from within our blood lines... our very DNA, to return again to our center, to our true power and strength. This is deep, potent, medicine. In this is time of great polarity; Sun/Moon, Mars/Venus, Aries/Libra, we are being catapulted into new landscapes within our awareness and being called to remember that Great Spirit/God/Goddess dwells inside of us. We are being summoned from our core to rise together in wisdom, truth and love for radical soul awakening. My this also be in dedication for our ancestors and for all future generations in front of us. Yes! In the midst of this major multidimensional shift, please remember to be gentle with yourself and with each other. Blessed Be.

RITUAL SUGGESTIONS:

Authentic Inquiry Journaling: Bring your pen in hand to paper and let your heart answer these potent questions. What I am I holding on to that may feel safe, but is truly not serving? What do I consciously choose to release with love? What am I changing? What is the deep unwavering truth of who I am? What do I truly desire? What is shaking loose within me? What does my soul/heart need right now?
Move your Body and Dance Dance Dance: It is time to SHAKE loose all that is not your truth and ignite love through the body. I've made you an Eclipsing Full Moon Medicine Dance playlist! Get in your body, breath deep, let go and let God/dess.

Remember: Put out your gem stones and jewels in a window or in water for cleansing, renewal and activation. Place an apple and glass of water in the moonlight and have it for a 'Moon Wisdom' breakfast the next morning.
Commune: Gather in an intentional way with loved ones and do any of the above together and create your own. Now can be a powerful time to be with the energy of the collective.

Full Moon rituals can be done the day before, of and after the actual full moon. This is the 3 day potency period. Blessings to you in this wondrous and magical time.

Wild Moon Love, Achintya

FOOL'S MOON: Reclaim Self Sovereignty

With the Full Moon in Virgo (Divine Feminine and the 'Virgin'), we are called to Self Sovereignty. The word 'virgin' originally meant "whole unto oneself". What does it mean to be sovereign unto oneself? How can we be in our full power in a healthy way? At this full moon, we are asked to explore with childlike curiosity all the ways in which we seek to blame/control others and thus give our power away. We are asked to reclaim our power by taking responsibility for our actions, thoughts and spoken words. At this time, we are summoned to the paradigm of choice, creation and accountability. Step forth, dear one, to ask for what you need, express your heart with gratitude and celebrate the truth and power of your innocence, generosity, compassion and love. Now is the time to create your human experience from a grounded place of humility, focused intention, service and beauty. This is our Moon Medicine.

FOOL'S MOON ATTRIBUTES

Tarot: The Fool
Herbs: Broom, Yellow dock, Irish moss
Colors: Pale/Light Green, Red-violet
Stones: Aquamarine, Bloodstone, Fluorite
Animals: Cougar, Hedgehog, Boar
Goddesses: Astarte, Minerva, Luna, Artemis
Medicine: Burst of new energy, Growing, Exploring, Learning, Inner child work, New beginnings, Balance of light and dark, Ostara, Spring Equinox

RITUAL SUGGESTIONS

Reclaim Self Sovereignty: Let's get real. In your journal, write down out all the ways that you are currently blaming outside circumstances or people for your own discomfort or unhappiness. Take personal accountability by writing down all the choices, attitudes and actions (including non-action) that is keeping you from living your full potential. Write down all that you are ready to release and all that you are calling forth for your present life to move forward aligned to your heart desires and to get your own needs met. Commit to two action steps to make this real for yourself. Now then, get to it. Welcome to Self Sovereignty.
Speak In First Person: Practice speaking from your own personal experience, beginning with 'I', instead of saying 'you'. Example: Instead of saying, "When you went into the ocean, you could hear the whales," you would say, "When I went into the ocean, I could hear the whales." This draws energy back into yourself, creates more power in your speech and opens clarity in your body intelligence.
Embrace The Heart: This can be a very intense part of the lunar cycle. Be patient with all the emotions you are feeling at this time. Breathe into them. Give them a safe resting place and a healthy funnel of expression. Be gentle with yourself. Then proceed to the following.
Return To Pleasure: Consciously breathe self-love into areas of your body that may be tender, in pain or need more energy. Practice random acts of kindness to yourself in ways that feel nourishing to your senses of sound, sight, smell, taste and touch. Delight in this as medicine for your soul. You so deserve it.
Remember: Put out your gem stones and jewels in a window or in water for cleansing, renewal and activation. Place an apple and glass of water in the moonlight and have it for a 'Moon Wisdom' breakfast the next morning.
Commune: Gather in an intentional way with loved ones and do any of the above together and create your own. Now is a time to be with the energy of the collective.

Full Moon rituals can be done the day before, of and after the actual full moon. This is the 3 day potency period. Blessings to you in this wondrous and magical time.

Wild Moon Love, Achintya

SAGE MOON: Full Moon Of The High Priestess

We are met with the Radiance of Leo during this second Full Sage Moon of 2015 and Full Moon of The High Priestess. This is an invitation for us to shine our light and gifts into the world. It is a time of creativity, open-hearted connection (whether romantic or not). This time calls for us to be engaged with our emotional wisdom and intuition and how we bring this forth into the expression of our daily lives.

Also at this time, our nervous systems become more sensitive. Our internal projections are amplified and our intuitive insight is heightened. In the fiery Leo energy mixed with the airy Aquarius Sun, our emotions, physical sensations and subconscious beliefs can create a wildfire. It is through our conscious awareness and practice that we can direct this wildfire to one that is in service to our health, happiness and holiness and that of the planet.

MOON ATTRIBUTES:

Tarot: High Priestess
Herbs: Hyssop, Balm of Gilead, Myrrh, Sage
Colours: Light blue, Violet
Stones: Amethyst, Jasper
Animals: Otter, Eagle, Unicorn
Goddesses: Brigid, Quan Yin, Diana,
Medicine: rising energy, purification, new growth, honoring and forgiving yourself, self-love, accepting responsibility, future planning and design

RITUAL SUGGESTIONS:

Seva: Practice selfless service by doing something for someone else (maybe even a stranger) that would brighten their day.
Express Yourself: Whether through voice or movement, sing, speak and move from a place of your authentic heart to engage with the current expression of your own body & soul.
Gratitude: Now is a beautiful time to reach out and share with others what you are most grateful for about them. Gratitude can also be expressed to oneself and to the Great Mystery with reverence for all our blessings at this time.
Fire: Build a fire and bask in the radiant flames. Let the heat penetrate you body. Let the colours into your eyes, empty yourself of thoughts and allow for visions and inspiration to come.
Intentional Design: Take the reins of your schedule and create some order. Design or arrange your home space to represent your essence.
Moon Prayers: With the full moon light, write down or speak your prayers for yourself, loved ones and the planet. The full radiant moon amplifies your word.

Remember: Put out your gem stones and jewels in a window or in water for cleansing, renewal and activation.

WOLF MOON

We begin the year off with some potent power. Welcome to 2015 Full Wolf Moon in Cancer. Wolf medicine represents the 'Teacher' and great wisdom. Wolf is now howling to us, reminding us to embrace our wildness and our truth. Connected with Cancer, this moon reflects to us the importance of honouring our body and emotional intelligence. We are being pulled to the past to clear/heal/transform any thoughts and beliefs preventing us from living our fullest potential and making way for quantum awakening within. When we allow our surfacing emotions to be embraced, we open up for deep messages of wisdom to come through us. May we be gentle with ourselves and create some space to be in the supportive energy of hibernation.

WOLF MOON ATTRIBUTES

Tarot: The Star
Herbs: holly thistle, nuts and cones
Colors: white, lavender, blue-violet/indigo, black
Stones: garnet, onyx, jet, chrysoprase, rose quartz
Animals: bear, fox, coyote, wolf
Goddesses: Freya, Brigid, Persephone, Inanna, Sarasvati, Hera
Medicine: awakening, envisioning, beginning/conceiving, rest, protection
Holy Day: Imbolc

RITUAL SUGGESTIONS:

Mini Hibernation: Be quiet & still for 20 mins. Listen. Feel your heart beat. Breath deep. Be present with yourself. Journal any insights that may arise.
River Flow: Let yourself cry. For reals. Emotional Cancer is asking us to release held emotions in the body. This is a healthy way to cleanse the emotional body and opens us up for the next level of deep wisdom to move through us.
Envision: Turn of distractions. Put your legs up the wall for 20 mins, practice long deep breathing and feel into your body all the qualities you would like to highlight in your life.
Magic: Place (or newly create) your 2015 intentions under the moonlight to activate your New Years reSOULutions. Place an apple beside it and eat it the next day.
Moon Speak: Create an altar representing all you are calling forth for 2015 at a location that will receive the blessings of the moonlight for activation.
Movement: Put on music representing your present mood and let yourself flow for 30 mins.
Water: Drink more of it. Get your body into it. Move like it.
Remember: Put out your gem stones and jewels in a window or in water for cleansing, renewal and activation.
Commune: Gather is an intentional way with loved ones and do any of the above together and create your own. Now is a time to be with the energy of the collective.

Full Moon rituals can be done the day before, of and after the actual full moon. This is the 3 day potency period. Blessings to you in this wondrous and magical time.
