Happy new moon, May 28, 2014!!!!

This moon phase is in Gemini and a time of really looking at things in a new way. If that means letting go of stuff then so be it.  You will be surprised at how light you feel from it.  

Do you feel like you have inner struggles?  Balance! Harmony with self is essential.

Celebrate the polarity of life and welcome the union of opposites.

We have a water trine of Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces. This can be a fabulous time of healing, creativity, insight and a free flowing of things.  So make a wish and be convinced that it shall be; that it is so!

Key words: balance, insight

  Affirmations:

I know my desires.

I live in harmony with all.

Happy full moon, May 14, 2014!!!!

Depending on where you are in the world this moon is known by many names: Planting Moon, Milk Moon,

May: Hunter’s Moon, Beaver Moon, Frost Moon, full flower moon to name a few.

This moon phase occurs in Scorpio so expect a time of transformation.

We have a cardinal grand cross influence and this is going to be very power packed with some rather cool things.    A time for the soul to feel nourished aware and for relationships to thrive; an overall amazing harmony.

Then we have the influences of the grand trine and thus openness to total healing with things repressed so long coming out. Long held onto beliefs and feelings and “responsibilities” and now it is time to release these and feel lighter ahhhh.  ☺

Keep alert and see what this cycle has for you.  The universal wisdom comes to us in many ways. And yes from the cosmos too.  Listen and receive. Be who you are and let the process there be one of harmony use all you have in a way to help the process even our words and emotions.

Key words: harmony, release, growth, metamorphosis

  Affirmations:

As above so below

I am becoming more me

Spirituality vs Religion

Words are beautiful things that in our human experience help us to communicate with one another.  Yet sometimes they are allowed to create a dividing force not a connecting one.

For instance with the words Spirituality and Religion. First off if you look up both in the dictionary you will see that they are synonyms of one another. So they are more or less the same.  They are both reflective of divine belief. 

Religion is said to be a lot more structured and controlled then spirituality yet many spiritual paths are rather structured too.  I guess the main difference in them is that others like to have more of a say in how things are and they feel this freedom in spirituality. 

It really matters not what one believes. We all have our own ways and our own path. But let us not lose track of what religion and spirituality are about. They are both about seeing our connection to divine in whatever way we choose to see divine; God, Goddess, Source, The Great Spirit, The Universe,.. They are about love and harmony not about hate and division. 

Some do much better in a more structured belief system they need that. While others like to be wild and free and to do what inspires them and touches their heart and soul.  So what! If we were all the same life would be incredibly boring and so likewise our paths differ.  All paths lead to the same. That is all that matters. So in honor and love and respect for all walk your walk and talk your talk.
