May New Moon Wisdom + Creative Ritual

---

The May new Moon arrives on Thursday the 25th at 13:45 Mountain Time. Both Sun and Moon are in sidereal Taurus and Rohini nakshatra, Earthy Taurus likes the tangible, and helps the Moon feel rooted- which is why this is the Moon's exaltation sign. Rohini nakshatra is ruled by the Moon and is lord Brahma's domain. In the cycle to come, expect growth, expansion and immense creativity. How will you use and channel this creative life force energy?

Lord Brahma is the ruling deity of this notoriously creative constellation. Much manifestation and the ability to bring ideas into form is strengthened and supported within this nakshatra. Brahma's wife is goddess Saraswati. Here feminine life force power is rooted in art, music and wisdom- all resources for creating, manifesting and increasing growth. Both masculine and feminine energies are necessary for the creative process. Though it's easy to get lost in the physical realms and what is tangible, it is also vital to resource from your depths, your creative intelligence. It is your inner wisdom that supports your creation process.

This waxing cycle demands more self expression and sharing of your gifts, wisdom and creativity. There may be confusion and uncertainty about how to go about this, but take steps regardless. Relationships become both a resource for spiritual resourcing and sudden change and transformation. Stay rooted, grounded and stable within your pelvis and creative energy center. Sensuality and sexuality can be a resource for increasing life force energy, Shakti. Use it intentionally to create, transform, heal and grow. Focus on nourishment, gains and how to increase abundance. Increase life force energy through self expression, sharing your gifts and speaking your truth. Nourishment comes when we align with our highest needs.

What is your heart's longing, your biggest desire? Take powerful action steps in the coming cycle to birth your visions into form. Notice where you let confusion and uncertainty keep you stuck, overwhelmed and uncertain. Clean up and clear away people, situations and stagnant emotions that are robbing you of more space to create what you want and need. Clear away grief from the gut so that you can step into your power and purpose more fully!

Mars shifts to Gemini on Friday the 26th until July 11th when it will move into its sign of debilitation. This new transit increasing the need to clarify and refine your actions, steps and decisions. Gains from your creativity are available in the coming six weeks during this transit, but require that you stay true to your needs and inner vision. Don't get lost, sidetracked or stuck in the uncertainty or imperfections. Take consistent action steps regardless. As long as you are aligned with dharma and purpose, there will be support, resources and gains. Misalignment will create challenges and a waste of energy. Stay true to course.

Creative Ritual

Cultivate a practice of checking in with your "four bodies" on a daily basis. Mental body, emotional body, physical body and spiritual body.
Get the Details

* 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?

Share your images and harvest in the Embodied Dharma FB group!
