 This December Full Moon arrives on the 11th at 22:12 MT, while Moon travels through Taurus and Mrigashirsha Nakshatra. Moon's favorite sign is Taurus and truly loves this constellation of Soma where he is considered in his mulitrikona degrees, or his "office". Full Moon in Taurus supports earth magic in the cycle ahead so be clear on what you are manifesting and bringing into form. This is an important time to create something new. At the time of the full Moon, Mars, Mercury and Sun give their drishti to the Moon, creating sharp, clear and focused perception. Four planets are still navigating Sagittarius, including Jupiter, Venus, Saturn and Ketu. Dharma and your spiritual path should be a strong focus right now. Move into right relationship with your dharmic path and purpose. Mrigashirsha nakshatra falls in Taurus and is ruled by the personification of Moon, the god Soma. From a Vedic perspective, the Moon is Soma itself, the divine nectar of life. From an Ayurvedic perspective, staring at a full Moon will allow you to soak up Soma directly and the Moon glow can even heal your eyes. A drink of Moon's Soma supports longevity, vitality and life force. The qualities of this constellation directly support increased Soma- on all levels of life. Soma is lord of the plants, giving them healing and nourishing qualities which are most potent in the waxing cycle. Symbolically, the constellation of Mrigashirsha correlates to the deer and its antlers. Traditionally, deer antlers were ground into a fine powder and used as an aphrodisiac. The quality of the deer and its antlers is constant movement and growth, branching out, extending, finding new green grass, new food sources, more abundance. Mrigashirsha is a soft, gentle constellation with fickle and changeable inclinations just like the Moon and the deer. This full Moon and the waning cycle ahead supports new growth, branching out, extending beyond your comfort zone and moving towards the new. Stagnation is a certain death for anyone born with this constellation placed prominently in their chart. A reminder to move in a new direction in the cycle ahead with conscious intention. Use this cycle to focus and align with your path, purpose and the direction you want to move in. Take action steps and be clear with your intention. Move in a life supportive direction. One that honors your growth, health, vitality and deepest desires. Look for and seek out opportunities that increase your nourishment. Open up new channels and pathways that support life. Expand and branch out. Are you moving in a direction that supports your nourishment? Where are you moving closer to your joy? Where are you moving further away from it? Where do you need to change direction or find a new path? Solstice arrives in the waning cycle ahead on December 21st at 21:19 MT. Considered a time when life seems to stop, or stand still, use this time for pause, meditation and silence. "The term Solstice comes from the Latin word solstitium, meaning 'the Sun stands still'. This is because on this day, the Sun reaches its southern-most position as seen from the Earth. The Sun seems to stand still at the Tropic of Capricorn and then reverses its direction. It's also common to call it the day the Sun turns around." - Via Time and Date As the still point arrives and the reversal of the light takes place, it is a powerful time for introspection and release. This is a time to attend to shadows, grief and undigested emotions. Clearing, purging and releasing lingering emotions from the past cycle will create space for the new, opening you to more life force in the months ahead. What needs to be cleared and released? What is undigested from the previous year, decade? What are you making space for in your life? In 2020, my complete Moon Wisdom offerings will only be shared in my Moon Wisdom Calendar.

 The June New Moon is in sidereal Taurus and Mrigashirsha nakshatra, the constellation of Soma, the immortal nectar. New moon is June 13th at 13:44 MT. Sun and Moon in Taurus receive gaze from the restructuring planet, Ketu. The emotional body will be feeling changes and release during and after the new Moon. Make good use of your emotional body wisdom in the coming weeks and honor the need for change. What needs to be released in order to make space for your deepest nourishment? Use the coming waxing cycle to pull up the weeds in your heart and clear the rubble from your emotional body. There is some very old grief that needs to be healed and released so you will have room for more of what you need and want. Clear, release, purge and let go. Align with your highest truth and deepest intentions. Make sure your actions support and honor your inner wisdom. Seek dharma, right action and align with your life path and purpose. There will be more resources and support in this cycle to help you clarify your dharmic path. Are you paying attention? Stay receptive to possible opportunities and guidance to help you get your needs met in new ways. The coming waxing cycle is influenced by the qualities of Mrigarshirsha, the constellation of Soma, a personification of the Moon, Chandra. This nakshatra is symbolized by the antlers of a deer, always growing, branching and out changing. Deer antlers have traditionally be used medicinally as well as for an aphrodisiac. Its nourishing qualities relate to Soma, the divine immortal nectar of the gods. Thus Mrigashirsha brings the possibility for deep nourishment, but only as a result of change, branching out and seeking new resources. Reach for more. Ask for what you really need. Become what you want to be. Allow yourself to change and grow. Move towards the nourishment. Where are you playing small and cutting yourself short? What needs to change so you can actually get what you need? What nourishment is missing from your life? Gather resources and support to help you clarify your path. Start deserving and receiving! There is a tight conjunction of Exalted Mars and Ketu occurring in Capricorn right now and into the next few weeks. Mars and Ketu will be in exact degrees on June 13th. There is a lot of heat and power in earthy Capricorn right now. Volcanoes are likely. Mars is the warrior planet and Ketu brings restructuring. Expect sudden changes and unexpected events. Explosive actions, emotions and choices can happen. Stay grounded, be methodical and avoid rash decisions and choices. Notice if you are pushing or forcing outcomes. Slow and steady wins the race- and prevents burns. Channel this powerful energy into positive, life supportive change. Align your action steps with your dharmic path and that which sustains and supports. Venus moves to Cancer on June 8th, joining Rahu here. The fiery combination of exalted Mars and Ketu give their direct gaze. Relationships feel the heat, pressure and restructuring. Feelings intensify and the emotional body may feel confused and challenged by uncertainty. Rahu brings questions to the surface as well as vagary. Seek emotional body clarity and keep your inner waters moving and purified. Release hurt, pain and grief safely. You will be asked to deepen your self inquiry. What do you need in order to be nourished- in relationships, Home and heart. Are you moving towards the nourishment? Or away from it?! Watch for overly rajasic tendencies in the coming days and weeks. The heat is on and the changes may be swift. With Saturn now back in Mula nakshatra, restructuring, release and pulling up weeds is occurring on a core structural level. You may feel the ground moving beneath you. Seek stability, support and grounding. Keep life as simple as possible and don't over complicate things. Use this time to move closer to your goals and gain momentum for your path and purpose. Clarify and focus your direction. Ask yourself: how bad does it have to get before I make life supportive changes? Creative Ritual1) Identify the strongest emotion you are feeling right now. If you could find this emotion living somewhere in your body, where would it be? Lean in closer. Notice the sensations you feel with this emotion in the body. 2) As you lean into this emotion living in the body, notice if it has a color, shape, or texture. If this emotion had a sound, what would it be? Let this sound out of the body until you feel complete. 3) If this emotion in the body could share a message with you, what would it say? What does it need? 4) Create an image of this emotion in your body, using craypas, paints, collage, or any other medium that inspires you. Spend at least 20 minutes on this image- until it feels complete. Give it a title. 5) Spend some time with your image and let it speak to you. If your image could share a message with you, what would it say? Let is respond to these statements: I am, I want, I need What have you harvested from the wisdom of your emotional body? I am on a mission to help sensitive souls connect with their inner truth and inner wisdom. To connect with purpose and dharma. We need you now more than ever!
Every week I offer two *free* dharma coaching sessions to action takers who are ready for deep life change. Is this you?! Email me to see if I have any openings [email protected]  The December Full Moon is on the 13th at 17:05 MST. Moon is in its mulitrikona sign, a great place for emotional expression and connection. Full Moon in Taurus and Mrigashirsha nakshatra brings reaching and extending into new territory and resources in the coming cycle. Branch out and seek new nectar for your soul. Attract more of what you need. Go out on a limb and try something new. Be bold in your action steps. Watch for fickle and flighty responses. Try to follow through and stick to your word. You may find yourself in challenges where you were not clear about your needs and intentions. Focus. Mrigashirsha nakshatra is ruled by Soma, another name for Chandra, the Moon. As ruler of the emotional body and the feelings within, Moon supports the experience of life through this uniquely human attribute. The Moon rules all the nakshatras, lunar constellations, the divine expressions of the subtle emotional body realms on a cosmic level. Moon is the fastest moving planet of the nine recognized Vedic planets, transitioning through each sign every 2.5 days. This expresses the fickle, ever changing nature of the Moon, emotions and the feminine. Soma is lord of the plants, and he gives the potency and nourishment that plants offer. In ancient times there was a Soma plant that had 15 leaves- each one correlating to the 15 tithis (Moon phases). Ideally, harvesting of medicinal plants is done on the full Moon, when the Soma is the strongest within the plant. Soma is pulled from the roots and into the leaves during a full Moon. Use this full Moon and coming cycle to strengthen your extending branches and allow your Soma to touch others, connecting and creating from your intentions. Trust your roots and reach your leaves and branches wide. Connect, co-create, reach out. The Moon is social and friendly, allow the nature of the Moon to support your interactions. This waning cycle marks the near closing of a lengthy process of a Kala Sarpa yoga. Mrigashirsha nakshatra is ruled by Mars, transiting Aquarius now, and will collide with the cutting nature of Ketu, before he ends the Kala Sarpa Yoga in the coming weeks. Watch for excess anger, aggression and passion- within and from others. There is a radical force taking place right now that can be delusional, violent and severe. Watch your emotional body carefully. Express and release emotions in a conscious and intentional ways. Be clear about your needs and expectations. Most importantly, let your anger be your teacher, your guru. Anger is a powerful change agent and often expresses parts of yourself that feel unfairly treated. Look closely at your personal mythology and notice what your ego is clinging to with tenacity. Can you find a softer, gentler place within to focus your attention, your inner gaze? Notice where boundaries need to be restructured- where you've been saying yes when you need to firmly say no. Emotional body flares are notoriously connected to leaky boundaries and lack of inner clarity. Attend to relationships with tact, clarity and the intention of loving-kindness. Be clear and firm with your needs. Use this cycle to honor a sense of liberation and letting go of parts of yourself and your life that are not feeding you. If it doesn't noursh you, radically remove it. This is a time of empowering, deep nourishment. What do you need to do for deeper sustainable abundance, comfort and support? Creative Ritual * Create a list of self care activities that nourish and support your physical, mental, emotional and spiritual bodies. * Use the four level check in regularly as well as EFT for identifying and moving emotions. 1) Using craypas, paints or pencils, create an image of your nourishment. What does nourishment feel like for you? Create an image that expresses this feeling using colors, textures and shapes. Allow 20 minutes at minimum for this nourishment image. Title your image. 2) Use your image to inspire a movement exploration. Let your body move in response to your nourishment image with an intention of "moving with your feelings of nourishment". What sensations emerge for you during your dance? What awareness? Allow 5 to 10 minutes for this movement exploration. I encourage you to extend this time frame as you recycle this process. 3) Harvesting. In your journal answer these questions: I am, I want, I need, I sense, I feel, I imagine. What deeply nourishes me? What no longer nourishes me? Where do I feel support in my life? Where do I need more support? What am I opening to? What am I closing to? {Plant Your Seeds of Light and Wisdom} *FREE* Winter Solstice Web Class.
