New Moon in Aquarius February 2022

1st February 05:46 UK / UT/ GMT

This new moon in Aquarius is inviting us to dream boldly about the future and do what we can to make it real. A wonderful window of opportunity to magically lay the groundwork for manifesting our desires.
This new lunar cycle will usher in a more chilled vibe after the big dramatic start to the astrological year we’ve had.
We start the month with a sigh of relief as Venus has ended her retrograde and is now stationed direct—with Mercury soon to follow direct on February 4.
While we’re not quite out of the retrograde woods just yet, as both planets will have to clear their retrograde shadow, this new moon is reminding us that new cycles—and new opportunities to change our inner and outer worlds —are always just around the corner.


What actions can YOU take to manifest change, empower yourself, (and others) no matter how small?
A phone call, an appointment, a list of priorities?

How can your actions make a positive impact on your environment?

Do you wish to contribute to a global cause for good?

It really is a powerful time to move toward meaningful change for ourselves, 

Whatever you decide to do, more power to you!

 

New Moon in Cancer July 2021

New Moon

Emotions, emotions…

Am I safe?

Do I feel secure?

Do I feel nurtured?

Am I making my own self-care a priority?

We are feeling ALL the feels today. Even the shadowy ones we may not like to admit to. But it’s OK, if we let them out in a constructive and kind way.

In fact, kindness in everything we do today is advised, because we may say or do something without meaning to if we let the negative emotions fly out unchecked.

If you have some rose or smoky quartz, black moonstone, selenite or carnelian crystals, these will soothe you, keep them close by.

Meditate on the following:

What have I achieved since last new moon?

What do I wish to achieve during this next moon cycle?

How can I manifest what is for my highest good?

What are my emotions telling me today?

New Moon in Capricorn – Energy Report

New Moon

While New Moons are always a good time to set intentions, today we are being asked to set intentions from a new place of knowledge learned through adversity.

We have broken down the things we took for granted or assumed.

Now, at this new moon we are being asked to think about who we want to be moving forward. We need to think about who we are as spiritual beings experiencing the challenge of human existence and be unafraid to confront ourselves. Exploring the shadows in who we are is pure honesty. Then we can know and do what we need to in order to get closer to being that authentic real person going forward.

Today provides motivation that will inspire and fuel us to tackle any challenging energies, and tasks that have been put off and need to be completed. You may also notice a sudden burst of confidence and clarity, allowing difficult decisions to be made more easily than of late.

This New Moon is a grounding influence and a good time to reconnect with the Earth, our ancestors, and our roots.

Commit to dropping the BS, strip away the inauthentic behaviours and you will be shown the real you, the one you might have buried deep under the needs of others or your own need for approval.

Take some time out in nature, maybe a walking meditation. Ask your guides, angels and ancestors to draw close, ask for their guidance, prompts and strength as you ask yourself honestly:

  • How have my priorities shifted in the past year of upheaval?
  • Is there real authenticity to how I choose to live now?
  • If not, how can I make the change?
  • What do I need to create, attract and speak into being?
  • What small step can I make right now to make it happen?

Capricorn goat energy is just what we need to climb this mountain right?

Think about how far you’ve had to climb in the past year, with the global cha-cha of lockdowns, rebuilding, setbacks, rebuilding again on top of our usual challenges too… You are stronger than you think, this is proven 100% fact, you are still here! A little stubbornness may actually work in your favour today as you ponder this but you may find yourself tempted to lock horns with people over issues that aren’t really worth the energy. Choose wisely!

2020 was not a wasted year. It was a year to awaken, realign our core beliefs and values, to come to view things in a new way. Use all that you have learned and bless whatever magical seeds of intention you plant on this New Moon!

If you need some spiritual tools or support, I can help…

Until next time…

Energy Report – New Moon in Virgo – 17th September

New Moon

Virgo really can bring in the constructive energy of purification.

Time for us to attempt to try to be virtuous (hahaha… I know!)

This new moon energy is a great spiritual window of time to receive some energetic assistance with our willpower and intuitive guidance about any health challenges we may be experiencing. If we struggle with sustaining willpower this is a good day for anything we associate with self purification.

See beyond the superficial – focusing on our spiritual progress and desired evolution despite the challenges of this year so far will help hugely.

Health discipline now will reap reward – along with any focus on creating meaningful personal transformations. If we are serious now about what we want and ridding our lives of what we do not wish to focus upon any longer, we will create constructive change and build new possibility in our lives.

Questions we may ask ourselves on this new moon:

  • Digestive focus – how may I improve my gut health?
  • How may I be of service to help others, how may I mentor or inspire by example?
  • What is still of value to inspire gratitude within me?
  • What is no longer serving a purpose?
  • What is working well for me and needs to be brought forward more?

The impatience of Mars may give us some challenges in staying out of distraction but it also gives us some fiery feistiness wherever we need to channel that energy into positive peaceful warrior stance for ourselves or on behalf of those who are marginalised. Allow it to give you optimism!

Romance is getting a real boost, especially if there has been any imbalance within an existing relationship – if you aren’t happy, you’ll be identifying and acting upon what’s not working and may feel a real prompt to change your own behaviour patterns as a result.

Even if you just sage your home and light a white candle with the intention set of cleansing energy sweeping through your life, it’ll be powerful stuff.

Of course, I’m here if you wish to book yourself in for a little cleansing work…

Until next time

New moon blessings!

New Moon In Leo

New Moon

This new moon is in Leo, which is strong and feisty energy but in all the right ways, such as creating opportunities to reconcile differences between yourself and how you feel about the world/or loved ones who have been getting on your last nerve. Will you carve your own path or submit to the will of others for a quiet life? The former is more achievable right now if you usually opt for the latter.

I woke this morning with the lyrics to John Lennon’s Instant Karma running through my mind – “We all shine on, like the moon and the stars and the sun”

The Leo new moon inspires us to shine in our own unique way. celebrating our quirks and weirdness. Let your freak flag fly!

At its best, Leo is about recognizing and celebrating what makes us truly special. Each of us has been given our own unique abilities. And we owe it to ourselves and the world to develop, express, evolve and share them.

We are not for everyone. And that’s okay!

The key is to shine your light where it can be best received, truly seen – and not waste your precious energy on people and situations that make you feel invisible underestimated, or worse, unappreciated. 

Areas we will need to work on today:

Our feelings are amplified and so is the negative self speak and judgement, but instead of looking where to blame, we can address and heal those issues as they rise to the surface now.

Whether we are ready for this or not – it is happening, and we can use the Leo energy of this New Moon to face them head on and roar! Create new and constructive habits instead.

This day is a great opportunity to take incredibly transformative inner journeys. Compassion and unconditional love, self-care to heal ourselves, to open ourselves up, shadow side and all – giving allowance to abundance in all things for our personal and collective greater good. 

Have you been increasingly unable to deny being your authentic weird and wonderful self?

Feeling like quitting your soul sucking job, or telling controlling people where to go?

Theres a reason for that. This energy combo is pushing us to choose integrity and authenticity, and to drown out fear. 

Creating good new habits and working towards the greater good in any way, shape or form is wonderful right now – go for it!

Be present with what feels good:

Simple things…

  • Daily random acts of kindness, be aware of the opportunities around you to pay it forward.
  • Learn something new.
  • Take time to honour nature, walk in open green spaces or forests.
  • Cloudgazing and stargazing (still some meteors until mid September too!)
  • Meditate – note down any ideas, thoughts, channelled words or imagery, leave a voice recorder app running while you meditate so you can speak them as you go,  then you don’t have the pressure and distraction of remembering it all.

If you feel super overwhelmed and unsure how or where to begin and need some help navigating and coping with this energy, perhaps a Chakra Balance and Cleanse, Chaos Flush Empowerment, Clean Slate or Diamond Energy Therapy will be a catalyst to press that reset button?

Whatever you do today, empowerment and focus on what you CAN do, is the order of the day. Time for you to harness this energy for the highest and greatest good – for you and those you love.

Until next time…

More power to you! xx

New Moon in Cancer July 2020

This New Moon in Cancer encapsulates the global situation and our own personal vulnerability in one.  Of late, we may feel we have been torn between our need for comfort and security versus the expectation to adhere to rules and boundaries.   I dont know about you, but the rebellious streak in me is right at the fore!

Despite the restrictions upon our global freedoms at present, it’s still up to us to rebel peacefully and personally to put our lives back in order.  Our personal lives are entirely ours to master, no matter what is going on in the world.  What has been allowed to slide?

We must now take action and here’s why this particular new moon is a great time to do so. Cancer is a caring sign and when we care about something we can act responsibly  because we are emotionally invested in the outcome being a kind one.

We set good boundaries when we truly care about the consequences of the outcome as we are setting them.

Abuse of power has been rife in the world for so long, but in recent times  more and more of the power-corrupted structures and people have been exposed. Since this New Moon in Cancer rules over children and the vulnerable too, we can expect more corruption exposed. Darkness is being brought into the light to be expunged and healed.

Saturn (visible in the night sky so brightly this month) is very much the planet of “what goes around comes around.” Especially for people and institutions that have abused their power – more so for those who have taken advantage of the vulnerable.

On an individual and personal level today, we need to examine and meditate on taking back our personal power from anything oppressive – be it our own behaviours and patterns or external oppression.

Really check in with ourselves to ask what is it that overpowers and restricts us in our own personal spiritual evolution?

To do that, we have to

  • identify and sit with whatever comes up that needs attention,
  • create supporting habits to nurture ourselves

From that place of caring and understanding, we can find better rules and create better support systems.

But we first have to face our vulnerability. Only then we can transform it into true power.

Here’s some new Moon Meditation advice to help you remember who you are and feel powerful again. Or maybe experience your own power for the first time. Today is a huge opportunity to remind yourself it is safe to be powerful in a loving and kind way.

Brightest New Moon Blessings!

New Moon in Gemini

New Moon

The New Moon is the Dark Moon, when the night sky is dark and there is no Moon visible in the sky. This is a time of magic, of darkness – not the darkness that keeps you up at night, but the darkness of transformation, of unknowing. Of being the seed of potential.

Today’s New Moon is in Gemini, and Gemini is never boring!

It is a fun, expressive, intelligent energy and loves to help us with all forms of communication. Gemini is resourceful and helps us to make life in all aspects lighter and easier.

Feel the urge to draw, paint or write?

This is a good time to give full reign to your imagination.

Make space for your creativity today.

What are you dreaming into being?

There is magic in the unknown, if you surrender to it.

No pressure on self. 

How can you make it easier to just be in the joy of creating?

Think of New Moon energy like a seed that has been planted in the dark nurturing soil, uncertain of what’s to come or what it will turn out to be. No rush, all in time. There is magic in being that seed that is waiting to sprout. It is how all creation begins and the New Moon is a time to honour and tune in to our creative powers.

As the New Moon falls in Gemini, the sign of the twins, we may also feel pulled in two directions. We may feel our heart wanting to go one way, and our mind wanting to go the other. Some of us may even feel a sense of confusion, loss or hopelessness. It is temporary. The dark night can seem long, but the light will always return.

This is a powerful time for ritual work, for setting intentions, and for thinking about our long term plans.

What do you want?

What are you willing to do to make it happen?

Trust your inner wisdom, retreat within. Give yourself permission to wait until the right answer floats up and you are met with knowledge.

Helpful crystals today:

Fluorite for focus and direction,

Any kind of quartz for amplification,

Rainforest jasper for manifestation.

If you feel the need for some guidance, I have 30 or 60 minute Intuitive Life Path calls available next week so if you’d like to talk with me, just click on Talking Therapies and book yourself in here.

With love, as always and New Moon Blessings!

New Moon in Taurus

New Moon

This New Moon in Taurus encourages us to be grounded today, to slow the pace, rest, reflect, take stock and creatively think how we may best use all of the resources available to us in life.

This moment is giving us the inspiration to think outside the box about how to call more abundance to us and manifest what we need for our highest and greatest good for ourselves and the areas of need we wish to contribute to in the wider world too.

Relationships, resources and looking after ourselves are firmly in focus, and given the circumstances affecting the world right now, all of these things have been more important than ever of late. We’ve had no choice in slowing down and simplifying all aspects of life lately.

Taurus is the sign most connected to the earth, helping us to feel that connection and love for all sentient beings upon her. I’ve never seen so many people out in our local woodland before, reconnecting with nature and taking the time to attune to the earth again. Maybe this is the moment that never would have come otherwise for many people, this enforced slowdown, holding the mirror up close at last and asking the difficult questions about how we feel about how we’ve been living and what we intend to do about it.

This New Moon asks us to take a look into the future. Old toxic ways and systems are being exposed for exactly what they are and always have been, they are crumbling and falling down just like The Tower card in tarot, they are falling down but will be rebuilt in new, powerful ways that respect balance.

So we must go within and ask:
What part can I play to re-shape and help build a better world that respects mother earth when we aren’t in quarantine anymore?

What have I been ignoring that must change?

What do I truly feel passionate about?

When was the last time I really listened to the effects within my body and mind when I am out in nature?

We have to be channels for new ways of working, to initiate change.

May we be clear channels to help bring about compassion, respect and grace for all beings in need, including mother earth.

Taurus is about pleasure too, place your awareness down to your sacral chakra for a moment. Do you feel joyful? How do you measure joy?

Maybe it is having time to yourself?
Having time with the children you love where it’s just about laughter and play feeling peace?
Being in nature, nurturing plants or spending time with trees?
Laughter?
Hugs?
Creating something?

Maybe you measure joy differently?
How would it feel if I might start to measure joy via simpler things?
What kind of pleasure and beauty do I want to invite in through this next lunar cycle?

Pleasure can come from simplicity – eating good meals, taking long walks, being in comfy clothes, snuggling, being with nature.

What kind of joy beauty and pleasure am I inviting in?
How can I create joy beauty and pleasure for others?

Meditating on these questions will really help us to mentally emotionally, spiritually and energetically navigate this time that we’re going through together.

Embodying what we need is helpful too. If you need love, send it out, unconditionally.

Try sending this message to your body right now that you are in a state of comfort, joy, inner beauty and pleasure.

Your body responds to your thoughts…
I feel beauty
I sense beauty
I create beauty
I experience beauty
Everything that is beautiful surrounds me
I appreciate beauty
I attract beauty
I enjoy the experience of being here
I am grateful for the ability to perceive joy and pleasure

Now take a deep breath.

Get comfortable and set these powerful intentions now.
(Yes, you do hold this power!)
You can say this out loud, you can write it down, you can just absorb it in your mind:

I welcome and I claim health and well-being for all sentient beings.
I welcome and claim financial prosperity from sources seen and unseen with no detriment to any living being.
I claim the easement of all burdens that this time has caused all beings and mother earth.
I wish us all joy
I wish us all moments of silly laughter and the ability to feel a child like sense of renewal and optimism
I wish us all passion.
I wish us all a sense of connectedness to those we love and may be separated from in quarantine at this time.
I wish us a strong sense of what we stand for
May we all feel powerful and confident in what we’re doing and who we are.
I call in our collective energy and our collective wisdom to empower these intentions.
May our intentions come to pass at the perfect time and in full and deep alignment with our purpose for being on this planet at this time in this incarnation.
May our intentions come to pass in alignment with the highest good of all beings.
And so it is.

I recorded a healing drumming session for new moon last night and put it on YouTube – collect the healing and enjoy here.

New Moon in Pisces

Hello, How are You?

For those of you new to “moon stuff” – the new moon or “dark of the moon” occurs when the side of the moon that is facing us on Earth is not illuminated by the sun because they rise and set together in unison.
Today we have a new moon in Pisces during Mercury Retrograde, with a little influence from  confidence boosting Mars.

We are being asked to go within and explore what we feel passionate about, without apology, and with confidence and trust in our own abilities to make the best decisions for ourselves.

We also have super dreamy and intuitive energy with this new moon, so if you wish to enhance your intuitive and mediumship abilities, this is a great time to focus on doing so.
If you believe you’ve been waiting for the time to be right to start on any spiritual path to evolve, here it is. Make your dreams reality! You will thank yourself later.

What are you ready to say yes to in order to evolve and grow?

New Moon Intentions

Create a list or vision board, Pinterest /whatever you like of what you wish to do for yourself this month to promote your well-being and self care. What does that look like?

What is realistically do-able? A treatment? Starting a new home study course?
Making a little time each day to devote to yoga or just quiet time?

Decide what to commit to from your vision.

Ask yourself some honest questions:

Where do I need balance?

Where do I need to draw firm boundaries?

What is my big dream and what can I do now to start to make it happen?

What will I honestly commit to now to further my spiritual well-being and evolution?

Enjoy the dreamy energy today!

December 26 Solar Eclipse at New Moon in Capricorn

So you know how we usually manifest at New Moon? Change of plan…

Eclipses are bringers of change, the movers and shakers… they can help us to make big breakthroughs where stagnation may have been present before. This one falls in the earthy sign of Capricorn at New Moon, so we can expect to really get things done if we set the intention to be open to all opportunities and place our mindset thoroughly into determined and practical mode. What do you truly desire? If it is a realistic dream, set the intention to work hard, be ambitious and tangible reward will come, now and in the months ahead.

Be very prepared to be flexible, to change your plans to get to those goals along the way – if you go with the flow here you will find that better things than you dreamed of are possible. I’ve already started to experience this energy build, happy events surpassing my expectations already. It may feel bewildering at first, but try to surrender to being shaken up, detach from strict planning and ideas on how it was supposed to go… and you will see what blessings come of that.

Maybe an Intuitive Life Path Session with me in January will really get things moving for you? Take advantage of my 20% gratitude discount for all bookings on my services made before 1st January. Just enter code GRATITUDE during the booking process.
