The Full Moon in Capricorn is exact on July 21st at 3:17am PDT.

This is the 2nd Full Moon in Capricorn in a row! The last Full Moon in June was at 1 degree and this month, in July, the Full Moon is at 29 degrees. The 29th degree means that we are coming to a significant time of important closures, completions, and releases!

Blessings be to all the limitations beliefs / burdens / densities that are coming to a close and alchemically transforming through the grace of your intentions and with the cosmic influences.

As last month, this is a time for celebrating your accomplishments in life and leadership. It further highlights where any shifts are needed in career (or with the organization of your business) and practical undertakings and investments.

This is an important time to illuminate the spiritual connection of success in the world.

What does success mean to you?
How does this connect with your heart?
What is soulful success?

ALSO - This powerful Full Moon amplifies your capacity to experience joy, pleasure and love in your body as sacred medicine. You are being invited now to do what makes you feel good without shame or guilt. The moon's energy supports you to shed self-imposed limitations and unleash your inner wild self! The earthy power of Capricorn magnetizes your creative passion and welcomes you to delight in the pleasures of all your senses!

This Capricorn Moon portal also reflects to us the need to make important choices in our lives in order to bring deep dreams and desires forward (for the benefit of our own lives, and for the planet). If you have been on the fence about something, this moon can bring clarity. Your body holds the wisdom and guidance for all your answers. Listen within and move in the direction that feels good in your heart, womb space and intuition.

This Moon is also known as the Blessing Moon or the Full Buck Moon.

And, it is Guru Purnima, a tradition dedicated to honouring spiritual and academic Teachers / Gurus, who are evolved or enlightened humans, bringing sacred service to Humanity. The word Guru is derived from Sanskrit and means “dispeller of Darkness.”

Ritual Suggestions

Earth Connection: Walk on the earth with bare feet. Imagine roots growing down from your feet or your womb space to the womb of Mother Gaia. Feel this an anchoring rod of light connecting you to the Earth and welcome in the magic of the Moon descend down from above you as you continue to send the energy deep into the earth to ground your dreams and affirmation and keep your body temple feeling supported and nourished.
Guru Purnima Gratitude Blessing: Throughout the day and night continually say out loud what you are grateful for about from the people in your life you consider your gurus / teachers, those you have learned from, who have empowered you and, If it's a person, reach out and tell them in a message or a phone call. If they are animals or angels or guides in the unseen realms, speak your gratitude out loud, or sing or write it down.
Take Stock & Take Action: In your journal, write down 1-3 emotional needs and desires that are not being met. Then list why this is so. Make sure you turn the answer inward and don't point the finger to the outside or at someone else. This is powerful. Take your time with this one. There may be massive insight and healing in this alone. Then for each need/desire, write down one way you can activate these to come to fruition. Make a commitment to apply at least one of these in the next 72 hours. And the others within this lunar cycle.
Creative Activation: Take a piece of paper and list 5-10 desires you have. Place this sacred paper under the moonlight (either outside or by a window). Create an altar with this by adding symbols (of things you already have/cuttings from a magazine, etc) that represent these desires. Get creative. Then burn sage or incense around you to purify yourself and symbolically remove any ways of being that prevent you from experiencing these desires (insight from first ritual may come into play here). Sing or chant any mantras or songs that you feel connected to, to bring these soul desires to life!
Remember: Put out your gemstones 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.

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.

With Love,
Achintya

SUMMER SOLSTICE BLESSINGS 2024

Blessed Solstice from our Mysteries of the Magdalene Priestess Pilgrimage in Southern France! The Sun moves into Cancer at 1:51 pm PDT / 4:51pm EDT / 10:51 Paris time on June 20th to open this powerful Solar Gate.

Solstice comes from the Latin term solstitium, “meaning sun stands still”, as it appears to do just that for a few days. In the northern hemisphere, we celebrate Summer Solstice with the longest hours of daylight and the sun at its highest point, while those of us in the southern hemisphere celebrate Winter Solstice with the longest hours of darkness and the sun at its lowest point. United, we hold the both the light and the dark and the full spectrum in between.

The Solstice portal is open 3 days before and after this Holy Sabbat of purification, exaltation and celebration.

Honour the potent Solstice energy with joy as we embrace the Wild Sacred Light of the Sun itself, the Light within all Beings and the Love that shines within us, that is who we truly are. This is also a time for you to celebrate for all that is ripe in your life, whether this is related to an attitude of gratitude, completing a job well done or for embodying empowering qualities.

In this 26,000 cycle turning of the Ages, the Solstice Cancer Sun has been rising at the intersection of where the Ecliptic (plane of the solar system) crosses the Milky Way (plane of the galaxy) in the middle of what is called the Sacred Hoop of Stars (Rigel, Capella, the Pleiades, Sirius, Pollux, Castor,and Procyon) since 1962 and will continue to until 2030. This is also known as the Silver or Cancer Gate where souls pass through to incarnate, signifying a great shift in our human consciousness.

During this Solstice portal, welcome the Sun’s rays to penetrate your every cell, for indeed you are being asked to hold the Mantle of Truth, Wisdom and Love as a multi-dimensional being. One is who is made of Star Dust and Sun Light.

At this time of Illumination, may you remember that your inner fires are here to support you in moving through any fears that keep you from your truth. You are being ushered into the next activation of your incarnation as both spirit and matter, which is the power and Blessing of Light itself. Orientate yourself towards the Sun to make clear and honest choices about your greatest dreams, to shed limited beliefs and unworthiness, and bask in the magnificence of these powerful Light Codes.

Blessed Be for all that is being illuminated and amplified at this Holy time of Embodied Awakening!

Summer Solstice Ritual Suggestions

Rise to Greet the Sun: Greet the Sun for Sunrise on the longest day of the year as an act of exalted devotion to the Full Light of your Awareness. If in the southern hemisphere, greet the Sunset to honour the shortest day or Light and Rebirth of another cycle.
Gratitude Speak: Speak aloud or write in your journal 20 things you are grateful for. If writing, place in the sunlight for amplification. This practice brings to light more experiences for you to be grateful for.
Honey Medicine: Eat a spoonful of golden honey in the sunlight, taste the sweetness of all of your life's blessings and recent accomplishments while feeling into trust, that all be provided for, for your life's dreams.
Elemental Fire Divination: Sunbathe, create a bonfire or light candles in you home to activate the wild and sacred medicine of Fire / the Sun and let the warmth of the rays and flames seep into your cells. Let the mind go and gaze into light to receive guidance and messaged available only at this time.
Solar Water: Place water in the Solstice Sun and let the solar codes infuse it for 20 minutes to 2 hours. Then drink in with celebration and honour. You may wish to keep in the fridge for a few days to come to keep ingesting this powerful solar elixir of nourishment.
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.

ORDER of THE BLUE ROSE ACTIVATES with the Full Moon in Sagittarius + Venus-Jupiter Conjunction

Photo by my dear priestess sister Ariëtte Love.

This is one of the most auspicious days of 2024. Venus in the Underworld (currently invisible from Earth) unites with Jupiter at 1:29 am PT, creating a harmonious expansion of the consciousness of the Rose Lineage Priestess Path. Along with the amplification of prosperity, spirit communication, wealth, divination and mystical power.

On this same day we celebrate with the Sagittarius Full Moon exact at 6:53 am PT. Her sacred blue flame meets with the Venus-Jupiter conjunction, creating an activation of the Blue Rose - a powerful celestial key code for the Lineage of Magdalene Priestesses, for your personal dreams and our collectively destiny.

This is the final full moon of our current Morning Star phase and Venus moves from Taurus into Gemini!

This full moon of the Venusian underworld simultaneously supports the releasing of cords /attachments from this life or other that you are now ready to sever, and illuminates a pathway of actualizing your destiny.

Enter the chamber of the blue rose. Come into deeper Presence with yourself. Feel into your deepest dreams and ideals (the target), by activating your devotional embodiment practices (the arrow), held with the wisdom and truth in your heart (the bow).

There is ann invitation to explore important pathways/options/choices to support your life’s direction from your intuitive guidance.

Be open to receive.

This is also a time of celebrating all that is blossoming in your life, for completing current initiations and for embodying uplifting qualities, symbolized by the Rose / Strawberry / Honey Moon.

Therefore, it is important to honour yourself in some way.

Your Destiny is written, and as the author of your life, you are writing it now. Trust the Great Mystery and trust in yourself.Blessed Be.

With this powerful energy please evoke your most sincerest of prayers for the world and all sentient Beings.
