Happy Lughnasadh!!! I hope you are well, safe and healthy and taking plenty of time for yourself to explore your what brings you joy. Life is to short to postpone. I notice myself that when things are uncertain (and life is never certain) I tend to freeze. Like at the moment my job's future is uncertain because of a reorganization and I find that I am afraid to go on holiday (as I feel I need to safe money) or make [...]
Happy Lughnasadh! Today marks the Sabbat Lughnasadh/Lammas (also called Lunasa,or August Eve). This is the first harvest festival of the year. After a whole year of caring for your "crops" and caring for your goals and dreams, now the time of harvesting what you have sown begins. We bake breads, begin enjoying produce from our summer gardens, and celebrate the prosperity of the year. This is a good time to think about what you would like to grow in your 'garden', your life and [...]
Yesterday was the New Moon in Cancer and family is very important to Cancerians. Cancer is the zodiac's sign of home, family, and nurturance. The new moon phase is about setting new intentions, setting new goals and making fresh plans for the coming lunar cycle. Since the new moon is in the domestic sign of Cancer, it's good to get in touch with loved ones and relatives again, especially if you haven't seen them in a while. If there are conflicts [...]
Hiya! Hope you are well! I am dropping in to share a Retrograde tarot spread by Spirit de la Lune. Right now, the only outer or transpersonal planet that is not in retrograde is rebellious and innovative Uranus. Uranus will also be going retrograde soon, but not until the middle of August. Retrogrades challenge us to review our approaches and release past outdated methods and this is exactly what is being asked of us right now on a world and personal [...]
Hello my friend, Long time no see, I apologize for being absent from this space, my online home. You see I was too busy fighting and now I am tired and see very clearly now that a different 'strategy' needs to be taken. You see I have been resisting what I see happening in the world and been trying to figure out what is really going on and how to get out of this as best we can. Because I foresee [...]
Happy Litha! This is a Solar festival, the solstice marks the longest day of the year. For me, Summer Solstice is a day for celebrating the warmth and light of the sun, the vibrant colors and bounty of nature and life in general. Though it’s also a bit sad, as the days now grown shorter as we head into the second half of the year. Pic by @karina_grens I’m not going to describe this sabbat as a lot can be found [...]
I wanted to post sooner, about the powerful Super Full Moon in Scorpio, but time is just not working for me at the moments, days seem to blend together and planning is just outdated. During this Full Moon - and still am in this Moon's window - I am working with those deep dark Scorpio aspects and the stings are painful but transformative. This Full Moon in Scorpio invites introspection, digging in the dark places of our psyches, and regeneration. We [...]
Slowly I am breaking free from primal emotions of fear (for the future, not the virus, I am not afraid of this virus), sadness, frustration and anger. Slowly I am pulling away from social media and 'truther' websites. Slowly I am feeling more creative and have shifted my focus from the pain I see in the world, to my own little bubble. Now this is not out of egocentricity, but because I can only change what I see in the world, [...]
I hope you all had a beautiful Beltane celebration! I posted about my day yesterday, but just popping in to share my 3-card Beltane tarot reading, which I did after yesterday's ritual. Winter - the recent past - Death, a time of letting go, transformation and re-birth. And personally this has been a process for me over the past couple of years. A lot of (actual) death (physical as in people I know dying), but also a lot of smaller personal [...]
Wishing you a blooming, blossoming, beautiful Beltaine/Beltane/Beltene. Now in Modern Irish Bealtaine can mean the month of may and La Bealtaine is May Day. I will for now use the anglicized spelling Beltane. What the name means of comes from is up for debate. Some say it means 'bright fire', the fire of the Celtic god Bel, or Belenus, a.k.a. Bile or Belinos. Some say the holiday refers to the fire of the Semitci god Ba'al, whose name means 'lord'. Beltain and [...]
