Relaxing times

Another beautiful day on Mother Earth!
This morning we share the abundance of our beautiful Moon's Full Moon energy.
Did you see her last night? Such a spectacular sight!
Radiating her fullness in the constellation of Aries - she showers energy and enthusiasm. She is no shrinking violet in Aries - as tender and nurturing as she is, she know what she wants here and will actively pursue it!
What is it that you want and how will you pursue it? The energy is available to you now to make those moves. The energy of Aries and his ruling planet Mars is active, very active. He's adventurous too and loves to have fun. He exudes an energy of child like enthusiasm and loves to make things happen! Where do you feel your energy is at the moment, where in your body does it make its present felt? How do you hold your energy, how do you express it, how do you save it?
This Full Moon can help you understand your energy needs. The Moon's energy has a lot to do with our needs, what we need to feel comfortable, where we naturally gravitate and what we need to feel secure. So with the Moon in her fullest manifestation and radiating the potent energy of Aries - our energy needs are are in view!
We expend our energy in various ways through our body, various ways through our emotions and various ways through our mental process. We are expending energy constantly. In Chinese Medicine ways of thinking we come into this world with a certain ammount of energy or chi - this is influenced by our parents, genetic influences etc. So it's as if we come with a certain container full of this stuff! And then we start to use it throughout our life. Bit by bit we empty the container - we revitalize and replace some of this used energy, replacing it back into the container. But some energy is lost and not replaced - this is affected by our life styles, our eating habits and our general state of physical, emotional and mental health. So energy is vital to our existence - without it we cannot exist! So how do we use our energy? How do we conserve it? How do we spend it?
Everything in this life is created from energy - behind every form is energy - energy is the life force behind all of creation. So this Full Moon is particularly significant because how we use our energy effects everything in our life - every part of our life here on earth. How we maintain and care for our energy is very important to our survival individually and collectively.
I started this article looking for a picture that 'jumped out' at me. I went through many, none seeming to have a significant connection to the present Full Moon energy. I kept being attracted to the many beach scenes I've taken photos of over the years - I love the ocean. My mental chatter kept 'advising' me that the beach had nothing to do with the energy of the Full Moon in Aries! That mental chatter can be a real trickster at times! Of course the ocean and beach speaks an energetic language to me - it reminds me of how I replenished my energy, how I soothed my energy, how I fed my energy and how I relaxed my energy. The beach to me is all about energy! It restores my energy in a way nothing else does. Nature does that for me constantly - but it seems when I've allowed my energy to deplete to a dangerous level - the ocean's medicine is powerfully and instantly effective. So for me this beautiful Moon is showing me, vividly, where the level of my 'container' sits - is it normal, below normal or in the 'dangerous zone', so very, very kind is our dear Mother Nature always there for us, constantly communicating with us, her sole purpose, for us to survive here on Mother Earth. She puts up the mirror so we can see ourselves and she quietens us so we can hear our inner voice - our inner knowing and wisdom that always knows what we need to do to be safe and well.
Each sign of the zodiac shares a 'line' of existence with another sign - Aries shares the space with Libra. So Libra's influence will also be present with this Full Moon. Libra's charm and grace, her love of beauty and harmony, her diplomacy and tact and her focus on relationships.
So how will we instigate the individual energy available to us? Will we use it with harmony and grace, beauty and harmony with consideration for the 'other'? Will we think of 'us' not just 'me'? Will we use this precious energy of life to create a healthy and complete 'I' to work withing a sharing, caring and harmonious 'us'?
As always we have choice, we have this magnificent life for such a short time, leaving day by day. How do we choose to use our predious energy, how will we care for this precious energy - how will be care for ourselves? How will we care for our communities? How will we care for our World - our Mother Earth? It all comes back to our dear friend Aries support in how will we care for ourself? From that all else can occur.
Emerse yourself deeply in Mother Natures abundantly giving nature - use the gifts she so generously showers to be happy, healthy and internally fulfilled.
May the bounty of life complete you!

October has arrived



"Flinders Ranges" by Lina Eve

with thanks

hi! Before beginning this months 'meanderings' I was reading over last months entry and what a surprise! My initial 'impulse' was just to get straight into this months without reflection on what has transpired. Words caught my eye as i moved along the lines -"responsiblity, manifestation of goals, stability of focus, planned goals and action, step by step clear strategy, focused intention and orderly progression". There were even more! "Precise and ordered steps, 'bum to seat', practical application, discipline and focus, self control and concentration".

These were words i used to describe the energies the September New Moon made available - in her Virgo and Saturn environment.

Looking now at that 'possibility' and what has transpired for me over these last few days is simply 'right on!'. It was if the words came to life and acted out their plan in such an unexpected way! Simply amazing!

I stand here now seeing the rewards of my actions - seeing the manifestation of my intentions - so very exciting! So worlds apart from just the intellectual 'knowing'. Positive and constructive change is possible it just requires our focus, intention, 'learning' and application/action.

It's particularly exciting for me to see the gifts, the potentials, the energy of our most beautiful, mystical Moon - and see them manifest.

Such a powerful source of life and nurturance surrounds us - our Mother Earth, Dear Mother Gaia - may we be open to the gifts and abundance she showers on us. Thank you dear Mother Gaia and may we learn fast the lessons before us - may we respect and honour you. The Creative Energy/Source of Life gave us life, the most precious of precious gifts and you have given us a home to live this life - we pray that we can honour this and soon!

Well - another New Moon slipped by - the Libra New Moon on September 29th. A pervading energy of beauty and relationship, encouraging us to focus our goals and become aware of our intentions. A great time for networking and relating - for focusing in on the most significant relationship, the relationship with ourself! A time for noticing what may be out of balance in our way of relating with others and with ourself. How can we better love another - how can we better love ourself?

Also issues of fairness and inequity will come to light, a time for balancing the scales. Also a time of love, peace and justice - how can we re-establish this in our communities, on our earth?

It's Venus time - Aphrodite will be present - her energy easier to perceive. Do you give her voice in your life? Do you allow her to manifest? How can you see the world through her eyes? Beauty and harmony, how can you embellish yourself in her robes?

The Libra/Aries polarity brings the focus of 'you versus me' - how can we accomodate you and me - space and time for us both. Not one over the other but 2 together - 'win win' for all.

Writing these 'words' - feeling and observing the beautiful energy of this New Moon - i see her manifestation in my life - so seemingly magickly! During the short week since she shone her magick - again these words have come alive and acted out my life's intentions. Is there just an incredible amount of magick around at present or am i just waking up - i suspect both!

With the constant magick that occurs in my life i'm always left with the same overwhelming sensation - the feeling of gratitude - for my precious life, my precious learnings, the incredible ones who guide and teach me and the divine divinity of this life. Again i am left humbled with that most magnificent feeling of gratitude pervading me - thank you, thank you for everything i am given.

Well i wish for you to stay awakened to the incredibleness that surrounds you and just keep taking those steps towards your greatness (inside you all the time).

lots of love to you all
