Happy Full moon, February 14th, 2014!!!!

These are some of the full moon names depending on where in the world you are:  Snow Moon, Hunger Moon, Wolf Moon, Opening Buds Moon, Storm Moon, The Trapper’s Moon, Snow Blinding Moon,  Moon of the Dark Red Calves, Moon When the Coyotes are Frightened, Grain Moon, Sturgeon Moon, Red Moon, Wyrt Moon, Corn Moon, Dog Moon, Barley Moon

This lovely moon phase is in Leo and is about what each of us has to offer the world; and perhaps some soul searching.  It is wonderful to see self in the mix but do forget others be mindful of those in your life too.  “All things in balance”. 

If need be continue to heal and let go of the past.  When you release these things you have room for the more beneficial things in our life to thrive.  Sacrificing pain for healing is truly worth it.

Intimate relationships and family ones can thrive now.

If you are in a healing cycle you may still feel nervous but you will see the progress.  Keep going forward! 

Key words:  be you, giving, balance, family, introspection

Affirmations:

I am mindful of me and also others

I heal and make room for my heart’s desire

The truth is solid

The old ways the traditions, the truth are things that to this day are much revered in my Native American heritage and likewise to many other peoples. 

All things go in a circular pattern. Just as the seasons.  This is the harmony of life. Even in the moments of chaos. For chaos is the force that says we need to keep moving forward. All has its purpose in the Universe and is the same in this cycle of being.  Chaos of the universe is not as some would see chaos from experience in this world. It is that thing that stirs things up a bit like a wake up call saying; “Things have to change now.” This is all part of the universal truth.

There is a primordial feeling with this that to some seems outdated but to me it speaks truth, home, love, peace, harmony. Alas that is what should draw us to it. That it has always been it is so, it is truth.

In time things can come around with a fresh new feel and they flow with truth yet some things tend to want to challenge and replace truth. This is impossible truth will always remain.

Jesus, Gandhi, and many other ascended masters taught these beautiful pure truths. Thus have the seasons, the animals, and the whole of nature been our teachers. Their wisdom has always been and always will be inspirational to us and a true blessing.

 One of the biggest truths is our divine beauty. This is one truth we all are to tune into.  It is not an arrogant thing to see the beauty that is you. For that is the true meaning of us being a mirror of all… not in seeing the negatives of another.  For what is one is not always in another in the human experience yet in the face of truth we are a true mirror of the divinity of one another.

See the divine awesomeness that is you in this simple exercise. Imagine you in your room and a part of it, in the house you live in and a part of it, and in the city/town you live in, the country, the planet, and the cosmos and in all seeing how you are a part of it. Pretty groovy huh?

Trends may come and trends may go but the truth never goes out of style.

Mercury retrograde: February 6- 28 2014

 

by Hendrick Goltzius

Mercury or Hermes is one of the messengers.  He is seen as a man with winged hat and wings on his feet. He is rather cunning and influences travel, financial gain, literature and poetry.  

He has also been seen as a symbol in the postal service as the mail men and women pride themselves on their swiftness and care with the mail.

Universally he is also seen very much of a Universal pot stirrer.  For this reason some are cautious.  

Cosmically we are now in a Mercury retrograde. Well, what does that mean? First look at the word retrograde which means to move backwards. When Mercury is in a retrograde it appears as though the planets are going in a backwards direction. This is an illusion called retrograde motion.

You see the Universal pot stirrers have a very important role in the Universe.  They keep things moving.

Now is a perfect time for this retrograde. The Spring will be upon us soon and time to shake out the cobwebs. Remove all the stagnant energy and make room for the freshness of Spring.

Many may become rather tense during retrogrades as things may come to the fore again.  This is not a time to go backwards this is a time to see the lessons learned there and not make the same mistakes, also tying up any loose ends as it were.  Clean out the old baggage to make room for more awesomeness.

This can well be a time to affirm how far we have come. If you are particularly intuitive your intuition will be on high, and beautiful “coincidences” can flow into your life.  Look for them.

As with anything we can choose to look at it as a curse or a blessing. 

Since now there is an illusion of backwards where so many see negative why not us that backwards and choose to see all as awesome. 

2014 retrograde dates:

• February 6–28
• June 7–July 2
• October 4–25

Affirmation:

I thank the messengers of the Universe for keeping me on the right track

Aho, Namaste, blessed be.

Intent

"Actions speak louder than words." is a rather well know  phrase. Yet lately I saw it a bit different. "actions speak louder then words and intent speaks louder then actions." I immediately loved the whole idea of that. Makes a lot of sense.

Think of two children spatting and the mother comes and breaks it up and one of the children has to get in one last word. She tells the child,

" You apologize to your sister!"

 and the child comes back with a rather harsh

 "Sorry!!!"

Likely the other child does not feel like they were even apologized to. So in this case words did not really make a difference.

But lets take the whole idea a bit further. If ones intent is positive and loving then their words, and actions will always reflect the best in them.

 Intent is that spark in things that makes things happen. So let our intentions be for the best and all will be well.
