We’ moon and energy; our connection

1 Jul 2019 Leave a Comment

Now is the time, This is the hour, Ours is the magic, Ours is the power.

The Craft 1996

For many years I was unaware and disregarding of my connection with the moon and how the moon affected me on an energetic level. In fact, truth be told, I was not in touch with my energetic body or even my physical body. What I did know, I had learned in biology class and in a text book or matter of fact way. It is no wonder whatsoever that I had no connection with my monthly body rhythms and I certainly paid zilch attention to that thing in the night sky that changed size and shape and, when not obscured by clouds, looked kinda cool.

Through the years of personal development and my spiritual journey, I have become more in tune with nature, the cycles and rhythms of life, my physical body and my energetic body. In training as a holistic birth teacher and doula whilst pregnant with my daughter, I began to become more aware of, and eventually in touch with my body and it’s fascinating cycles. I remembered sharing a house at university with 3 other girls and that our monthly periods, after living together for 5 months, synced with each other.

How flipping cool is that

I also began to appreciate the effect of the moon on the sea and tides and then eventually on my emotions and energy. The door to understanding and holy cow realisation blew open and blew my mind!

As I age, I am more and more in tune with our grandmother moon and her effects on me as a woman. I know what to expect and how to best be in flow with her rather than trying to fight back. Yep, I’ve learned that that is a losing battle and not worth even trying. I understand that the moon is associated with the feminine, intuition and deep inner psyche across many traditions. The moon is considered a feminine planet and she reflects how we feel about ourselves, how we deal with our relationships and how we respond to situations. It refers to our inner world, and deep patterns of thinking and feeling, embedded in the unconscious.

As humans we are mostly water so at it’s most simplistic level, we could say the moon is pulling on our emotional centres, and at the new and full moon times, its pull is maximized so it could be bringing heightened emotions to the surface. The full moon, in particular, can feel like a disruptive time, resulting in more erratic behaviour, anxiety, emotional sadness, irritability, tension or tiredness.

Being in tune with the rhythms of the moon allows us to open our intuition and to dive into the depths of what is needed, allowing our inner wisdom to speak to us. Whether you are male or female you have a feminine side which is super important now in the times we are living.

Honouring women in the world begins with honouring our inner feminine.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

NEW MOON

The new moon is the beginning of a lunar cycle, and it is the dark phase of the moon; a time for internal reflection and planting seeds of intention for the weeks to come by setting goals.

What is one thing you would like to move towards in your life?

Write an affirmation or visualisation of you having this experience in the present moment. Feel it. Be excited about it. See it clearly and be grateful for it. Really believe it is your current reality and make it vivid!

Rest more, be still and quiet, journal.

FULL MOON

The full moon is a time of reflection, and release. It is about how our energy is expressed in the world and in relationship to others. It calls us to activity, ceremony, new projects and overcoming obstacles. It calls for support and cooperation to water the seeds and help them grow. Take time to reflect on how important you are to those around you and for your friendships and support network. Reflect on how you are supporting others too.

Be bloody grateful for it all and feel it.

Do more, be active, dance, sing, run, walk.

Soooooo, if like me, you find your energetic body affected by the moon and her cycles, don’t think you’re crazy! and definitely don’t try to resist the flow. There is a time for everything so give yourself permission to follow the flow and ebb of her beautiful feminine rhythms.

What is your experience with new and full moons?

July is the start of eclipse season and tomorrow; July 2nd is new moon and a total eclipse. This is part of an eclipse cycle that began in 2000/2001 and something from around that time is transitioning for you now (Etta’s Botanica)

Fall away Let the layers fall away Only truth & Fall away

Let the layers fall away

Only truth & love can stay

And so it is.

I have been “off” social media for a few months now & although it wasn’t intentional, it has been a breath of fresh air.

When I felt the pressure to post something, I questioned my heart if I really had anything to say & wanted to share.  Funnily enough the answer was “hell no” 

Instead of ignoring this answer, I allowed it to fall. My truth. Aligned action with an aligned heartfelt feeling/emotion/belief.

How often do you force yourself to do things against your “truth”? 

Think about it.

Only truth & love can stay 

Namaste
Empty nesting? What’s that? Well, it’s the Empty nesting? 

What’s that?

Well, it’s the time when your children leave the safety, security & comfort of the nest you, as their parent, have provided for them, preen their feathers spread their wings, & fly away to live their own life elsewhere (university, travelling, a job in a different city or even country)

There are many ways of experiencing this rite of passage as a mum & many mums experience empty nest syndrome.

If you’re feeling overwhelmed and deeply saddened by your child moving out of the home, you might be experiencing empty nest syndrome.

You are not alone.

Many mums experience it yet society doesn’t really help us LIVE it in a positive way.

I’m here to help you do that.

I’m here to support you.

I understand as I’ve been there myself.

Join @soniacruzoro @coachjolinda & I this week on Empty Nester Adventures as we explore, reevaluate & provide tools ina supportive community to live this experience consciously & with positivity.

Cliche I know But very very relevant & important Cliche I know

But very very relevant & important to never forget especially as we get caught up in the giving to others that we do as women & mothers.

I’m feeling so much sadness & despair in the collective energy & it’s draining.

I need to “fill my cup” so that I can carry on giving to others & filling their’s...

Only I have the responsibility of taking care of me...

Only I know what my needs are...

Only I can restore myself through self love, self care & non judgmental compassion...

What are you doing to tip your cup up today?
THEY ROCK your WORLD Your son or daughter The THEY ROCK your WORLD 

Your son or daughter 

The sleepless nights, the worries, the difficult decisions, the challenges & the endless questions...

You hope you have been a good mother. You hope they are ready for the adventure of becoming an adult & leaving the safety of the next you have built to keep them safe.

You are excited for them.
But
Something feels uncomfortable.

If you are preparing for your so or daughter to leave home this Autumn then you are preparing to empty nest.

This rite of passage isn’t talked about enough so why not explore this new journey in our 3 day exploration called Empty Nesters Adventure?

12th, 14th & 15th July at 6pm UK time live.

Link to join in my bio.

I open our FREE 3 day adventure with an exploration of the feelings & emotions of empty nesting, a return to life Pre parenting, & a reconnection with your inner child to discover your passion whilst lovingly caring for yourself through this rite of passage.
