Spring Equinox Guidance & Blessings (March 20 2025)

flowers_more/2023_Pansy_Purple_Closeup.jpg 
 

Dear Cosmic & Psychic Friends,

Happy belated Spring Equinox! Happy Astrological New Year too!

Yesterday, the Sun joyfully burst into Aries, the zodiac’s first sign, signaling the start of a fresh, new astrological year and aligning beautifully with the celestial equator.

 

For those of us dancing beneath Northern Hemisphere skies, this celestial alignment signaled the start to spring, and invites us to clear out clutter, remove obstacles, and focus our energy, paving the way for increased clarity and higher cosmic alignment.

Now is the time for getting re-balanced and re-aligned in every area of our lives! (And especially in those areas of life that mean the most to us right now.)

 

→→→To check out the special Spring Equinox I-Ching reading I did for us all, go here:

https://www.facebook.com/psychiccynthia/posts/10161398440230678

 

The days around the Equinox are also a good time for shopping, decorating, celebrating, socializing and coming together with friends or loved ones.

 

I know that the Equinox was exact on a Thursday this year, which isn’t a very convenient time for getting out and about and circulating or socializing. But do you have anything fun or celebratory planned for your Equinox weekend ahead? If not, now is the time to hatch a plan for getting out and about or at least doing something fun and inspiring at home this weekend.

(Yesterday, I was out and about myself, and celebrated the Equinox by drumming, dancing, and chanting with friends. That’s why this newsletter is coming to you a day later than usual. 😊)

 

SEEK GUIDANCE

TO CLARIFY YOUR PATH

 

The weeks around the time of the equinox are one of the BEST times for having a reading done for yourself to gain new clarity and insight and to refresh your spiritual energies....

 

With us now crossing the threshold of the March Equinox, this is one of the two most pivotal times of the year, as spring and fall are the seasons of CHANGE and RE-DIRECTION. 

 

If you are feeling the need to get re-aligned and re-centered in this time of new beginnings, keep in mind that I am available for private readings, which might be just the thing to assist with your seasonal re-set.

 

Even if you do not have a professional reading done (by myself, or another highly competent psychic), consider doing an in-depth reading for yourself utilizing your favorite divination tool. As the doorways to spiritual knowledge & guidance are much more open around the time of the Equinox!

 

RE-CREATE &

RE-MAKE YOUR LIFE

 

The days around this Equinox are potent, pivotal moments of energetic transformation, heralding the start of a six-month cycle focused on rebirth, awakening, and external reconnection. Shifting from Pisces' dreamy, watery depths into Aries' fiery, vibrant energy, we are encouraged to rise, shake off the heavy cloak of winter, and step boldly into renewal.

 

Aries' fiery vibe is all about ACTION—sparking passion, adventure, and forward momentum. This is the beginning of a new chapter in your life.  The energy right now practically demands movement, urging you to get up, get moving, and chase your dreams with renewed vigor. Even small steps taken now are powerful seeds planted for future growth.

 

This is a time for rising up and shedding the heavy cloak of winter. These incoming Aries vibes want you to get up and about, lighten up, and get out and have some fun and adventure.

 

BE KIND

TO YOU

 

Keep in mind that as with any rebirth and re-emergence, you do not re-emerge already fully-grown. Every rebirth begins tenderly.

 

Aries energy resonates with the innocence and vulnerability of a newborn child, reminding you that your freshly-sprouted dreams and aspirations need gentle nurturing. Honor your energy levels, pace yourself, and offer yourself ample kindness and compassion. Emerging from winter’s emotional heaviness can be challenging, so move forward gradually and lovingly.

 

Beware of Aries’ shadow side—burnout. Aries' initial burst of fiery enthusiasm can easily lead to exhaustion if you don’t respect your energetic limits. Be mindful and patient with your growth, ensuring steady and sustainable progress.

 

Now is the time for stepping out and taking GRADUAL action towards the fulfillment of your cherished hopes, dreams, and plans. However, it’s important to honor and respect your energy levels, and especially important to pace yourself and give yourself the time you need to gradually adjust to an increase in activity and exertion of energy. 

 

RESTLESS VIBES &

RESISTANCE

 

Feeling restless, off-center, or lethargic around the Equinox is entirely natural. Your physical body and energy field may experience resistance as vibrations intensify rapidly during this powerful seasonal shift. With Mercury and Venus currently retrograde, coupled with the upcoming Aries solar eclipse, you might feel like you’re taking one step forward and two steps back.

 

 

These energetic side-effects will ease as your body and spirit adjust. Patience and gentle, consistent action are key to navigating this period gracefully.

 

TIPS FOR ADJUSTING

TO THE RISING ENERGY

 

To channel restless energies constructively, take positive steps toward your goals. Engage in gentle activities like yoga, dancing, drumming, stretching, walking, or light gardening to keep your energy flowing smoothly and harmoniously. Keep activities gentle for now—your body needs time to fully acclimate to this new energy before it will be ready for more strenuous activities.

 

If sluggishness persists, prioritize rest, high-quality sleep, and gradual increases in activity. MOVEMENT is vital for breaking stagnant energy, lifting your spirits, and overcoming seasonal blues. Try exploring new local places, attending new classes, or connecting with new friends.

 

Also, consider traveling if you are able to, as traveling can refresh the mind and expand your perspective. It will really help lift the seasonal blues if you will take yourself in a new direction, either mentally or physically.

 

Heat can also energize and uplift you at this time. Warm baths, hot showers, saunas, hot yoga sessions, or even visiting a warm, sunny location can help melt away residual winter heaviness and awaken your vitality.

 

RECOMMENDED

 SPIRITUAL PRACTICES

 

In the next week or so ahead, I recommend that you consciously engage with the spiritual Powers and the Spirit Realm, by practicing gratitude and making an offering to Mother Earth, Lady Spring, Nature, or the Ancestors. This will harmonize & invigorate your spirit.

 

Giving back through offerings—whether through gifts of food, song, dance, drumming, or cleaning up a natural space—creates a sacred exchange, revitalizing your connection to the unbroken chain of universal energy and spiritual power.

 

There is no wrong way to make an offering of gratitude to the Spiritual realm. As long as your offering comes from the heart and is given in generosity, it will be correct.

 

At this time of Equinox activation, you may also find it helpful to deep clean your home or re-set you altar, or engage in spiritual cleansing rituals to realign your energy field with the vibrant energies of renewal.

 

All of these activities can help to improve your overall energy level and lift your spirits, as well as deepen your connection to the Spirits.

 

My Equinox Blessing for You

  May you be renewed, replenished, and joyfully reinvigorated by this sacred Equinox energy, wherever you may be beneath the wide, cosmic skies! ✨🌷🌞

 

Cosmic Love & Bright Blessings,

Rev. Dr. Cynthia Killion (Psychic Cynthia)

Overview of Energy Shifts July 2024

OVERVIEW

JULY 2024 ENERGETICS

Written & Published 7-06-2024

By Rev. Dr. Psychic Cynthia Killion

 

astro_etc/horoscopes_smaller_NEW_Gold.jpg 

 

NOTE:

This is just a summary & overview to help you get started planning for your month ahead.

 

For more in-depth info about the effects of these individual shifts (and how to best navigate them), please follow me on FB (Cynthia Killion, Psychic Cynthia or Cynthia Psychic), or subscribe to my Cosmic Newsletter via this site.

 

JULY 2024 RETROGRADES

--Saturn, Neptune, Pluto all retrograde at start of the month.

Meaning, NOW!

 

Of these three retrogrades, Saturn retrograde probably has the heaviest weight for most of us.

 

Saturn recently turned retrograde on June 29th and will remain retrograde until Nov 15 2024.

 

During this time, honor your boundaries, margins and limits, and practice saying no when it is in the best interest of yourself and others. (More on these retrogrades in a later newsletter or post.)

 

When it comes to career or life purpose matters, don’t try to push so hard right now or attempt to make major divergences on your path.

 

Instead, relax, follow through with the path that you are on, and let the Universe lead the way.

 

Note: If you are not yet sure what your true path or higher purpose is, the time that Saturn is in retrograde is an excellent time for meditating upon and contemplating that, and perhaps even investigating what your purpose or calling is by getting a reading.

 

Mercury will enter its PRE-retrograde shadow on July 16th.

 

On July 27th, Mercury enters the PRE-retrograde storm.

(Remember, the pre-storm acts like the retrograde. Therefore, it would be wise to exercise extra caution and restraint from July 27th onward. Slow down and take your time and be extra-thorough with whatever it is you are doing then.)

 

NEW MOON in Cancer this month was exact July 5th.

This New Cycle continues up until Aug 4th. 

 

This initiates a fresh cycle focused on intuition, family, and emotional realms. Nurture your dreams and goals, cleanse and purify your inner world.

 

 

A good cycle for calling upon your Ancestors and asking them for help with family, work, health, domestic or abundance issues.

 

(Check out the 07-06-2024 Cosmic Newsletter for your special New Moon forecast relating to this new cycle ahead.)

 

We also had a lovely Mars sextile Saturn shift yesterday (07-05-24) which is still in effect for a few more days. This Mars-Saturn happy combo can help give you the little LIFT you need to take positive action and shift into a more expansive viewpoint…

 

This is a really helpful energy for assisting you with dealing with any practical or mundane issues you’ve been putting off on, such as renewing car tags, doing home improvements, yard work, cleaning projects, and so on.

 

Speaking of Mars—

MARS CONJUNCTS URANUS is exact on July 15th.

However, the energy of this shift is already in effect NOW. Its influence will continue at least until July 23rd. (If not a little longer.)

 

This one holds potential for both transformation AND upheaval. On the plus side, this can give you the power and strength required to make needed changes this month, particular the kind of changes that involve radical letting go, stepping into uncertainty or upheaval.

 

HOWEVER, BE WARNED-

It can be easy to step onto emotional landmines while this transit is in effect. It also seems easier than usual to accidentally act out in crazy ways and make unwise decisions that you will later regret when under the rays of this kind of Mars-Uranus combo.

 

Furthermore, I have observed in the past that when Mars and Uranus make contact, some people are much more susceptible to the influence of negative spiritual energies, so it is important to practice psychic purification right now and to safe-guard your own energy.

 

The Best Way to Proceed with This Mars-Uranus Energy--

 

Instead of taking unwise or unnecessary risks right now, and in order to avoid inviting unnecessary chaos or destruction into your life, it is better to channel your extra courage and energy into something constructive. Build a better future for yourself and loved ones, stretch and reach out with positive vibes, and embrace the cleansing and freeing energy of this shift.

 

FULL MOON this month is exact in the early pre-dawn hours of Sunday July 21st, occurring at 29 degrees Capricorn. (Strongest night-time illumination will be the night before, Sat July 20th.) This is a Capricorn-Aquarius cusper full moon, with both signs being ruled by Saturn, but in different vibrations.

 

So around this time, you might experience a dynamic inner conflict between simultaneously wanting to be more organized and grounded, while also wanted to be more eccentric and break free from external definitions of the norm. (More on this full moon later this month in this Cosmic Newsletter.)

 

SUN ENTERS LEO on July 22nd, which is a very lazy, relaxed and fun-loving sign indeed.

 

From this point forward and for at least a couple of weeks, try to schedule in some time for fun, play and relaxing, as you probably won’t feel as up to working or being ambitious for a little while after the sun enters Leo.

Mercury Direct & Out of Retrograde Storm

MERCURY DIRECT &

OUT OF STORM--

THE TIME OF

STANDSTILL HAS ENDED

By Rev. Dr. Psychic Cynthia Killion

05-07-2024 

 

Mercury recently stationed back DIRECT, after having been retrograde for much of April.

However, as you may already know, even after Mercury technically turns back direct, it takes a little while for its orbit to smooth back out again and return back to a more normal way of being. This is also reflected in the energies and the happenings here on earth, as we undergo go a time of necessary re-alignment AFTER Mercury has already gone back direct….

 

This period of post-retrograde re-alignment is now commonly referred to as the retroshade period, and includes both the post-retrograde storm (which usually lasts for about a week AFTER Mercury turns back direct), as well as the post-retrograde shadow time (which lasts about a week or so further out yet).

 

THE GOOD NEWS is that now Mercury has not only turned back direct, but it has also completed its time of post-retrograde storm. (As of May 4th 2024.)

 

With Mercury now having left its post-retrograde storm, the time of standstill has ended, and a new chapter begins.  

 

Since Mercury stationed direct on April 25th, and up until just recently (May 4th) the focus has been on re-stabilizing and re-orientating ourselves, and regaining a sense of more normal alignment and equilibrium.

 

For even though Mercury recently stationed direct, it still takes a little while for the energies to re-arrange themselves again into a more harmonious flow, which is what happens during the post-retrograde storm. This post-RX storm is usually only about one week long, and transitionary time that provides you with an opportunity to re-orientate yourself and re-gain your footing and establish TRACTION again before running out the door again to chase after major projects & plans.  

 

These may have been difficult or emotionally challenging times for some, due to the tension that is generated when the energies are completely re-arranging themselves again.  (See below for more info on that.)  But from this day forward, you should be on more solid footing again.

 

Now that we have left the post-retrograde storm, clarity and insight will begin to return, and the mental fog will start to lift.  From this day forward, it is a MUCH better time for making decisions & formulating plans than it has been since Mercury last went retrograde (back on April 1st). 

 

Your mind will just be a whole lot clearer & brighter than it has been for a while! 

Furthermore, you will now find it easier to actually CARRY OUT you plans and get stuff done.

 

No more of that one step forward, ten steps backwards kind of feeling. 

 With Mercury now direct & out of storm, this will create a force of FORWARD MOMENTUM that can’t be stopped.

 

TAKE A BEAT TO REVIEW 

 

One action that I would strongly recommend you do this week BEFORE you take any other major action or make any new major plans is to sit down and make a list of the recent ideas & plans that you had formulated PRIOR to today, and give them a look over and review. 

  

Now that we have come up out of the storm (and it’s easier to access mental clarity)…

 

How do these earlier plans, goals & ideas look to you now? Which of them look like ones you still want to move forward with?  Do some of them need to be thrown out or revised?

Before jumping back into the flow of creativity and action again, you would be wise to take a beat and re-evaluate the plan you have for your course. 

 

In particular, be certain that what you have planned is in alignment with your higher purpose and long-term goals, and not just something you are doing out of boredom, desperation, scarcity or other ego-driven motives.

  

THE RECENT BREAK-DOWN &

RE-ARRANGING OF COSMIC ENERGIES

 

During the time that we were in the post-retrograde storm, there was still a bit of STATIC in the air (energetically speaking) and clarity was still more difficult to access. 

 

It was as if the mental fog was beginning to lift, but there was still much murkiness & cloudiness obscuring the inner vision. 

Often, there is a feeling of SUSPENSION or STANDSTILL around the time that Mercury goes back direct, and for a week or so afterwards.

 

During a post-retrograde storm (such as the one we just had), there can be that feeling that you WANT to move forward, and are TRYING to move forward, but it is happening oh-so slowly.

Which makes sense really, since it takes a beat or two for the energies to fully re-arrange themselves into a more harmonious fashion again after the retrograde.

 

The time of this recent post-retrograde storm may have also been a bit CHAOTIC and drama-laden for some.

Others may have felt weighed down with melancholy, inertia or even slight depression during the time of our recent post-retrograde storm.

 

This is only natural, since during the post-retrograde storm of Mercury, the energies are literally breaking down from one way of being (retrograde) and transmuting and transforming to ANOTHER way of being (direct). And any unresolved emotional & karmic issues will naturally come to the forefront when the energies are de-stabilized in this way, thus appearing to generate unstable emotions & chaotic events.

 

(There is also a CLEANSING and HEALING that can take place during the post-retrograde storm time, as past situations are resolved internally and old emotional energies are spontaneously released.)

 

To be clear, it’s not necessarily the retrograde or post-retrograde storm itself that CREATES or generate the unstable emotions. However, it does put a lot of PRESSURE on us and it generates much TENSION in the physical realm when the energies are off their normal equilibrium.  (Such as they are during the retrograde proper.)

 

When the energies start to re-arrange themselves again AFTER the retrograde, this also releases a TREMENDOUS amount of pressure into our physical universe, which in turn will reveal any emotional, physical or energetic cracks that we have in our energy field. 

 

It’s a good opportunity to learn where your weaknesses are so that you can work to correct them & strengthen yourself.

 

On the other hand, this time of standstill & re-arranging can be immensely frustrating, especially to those who don’t understand why it is happening or that it will soon be over.

 

IT’S TIME TO

RE-EMERGE

 

Whether your recent retrograde experience was mild or difficult, the post-retrograde storm is over, and it is time to re-emerge. Sometimes when we’ve had a difficult time or just feel uncertain about life, sometimes there is tendency to keep cocooning, HIDING YOUR LIGHT & staying DIS-CONNECTED from the world. 

 

However, you hiding your light serves NO ONE well (including yourself). And cocooning is only meant to be for a short period of time, while one undergoes the process of break-down and transformation.

 

Mercury going direct and leaving its post-retrograde storm is a signal to us all that THE TIME OF COCOONING IS OVER.  It’s time to start stretching your wings and getting back out there and getting going with life again, even if it’s only in a small way.

 

Here’s to you coming back out of your Mercury Retrograde cocoon and re-emerging & spreading your wings again!

  

A BIT ON THE

POST-RETROGRADE

SHADOW….

 

Things are definitely on a more forward-moving track from this point forward. With Mercury stationed direct AND now out of its post-retrograde storm too, you have the green light and the blessing of the cosmic energies to move ahead with your new plans and major undertakings….

 

However, you may find that you are still dealing with some long-standing projects or complications that originated during the retrograde for a little while longer yet.

 

The reason I say this is because even though Mercury is now out of the post-retrograde storm, it doesn’t complete its post-retrograde shadow this time until Monday, May 13th.

 

This May 13th 2024 date marks the moment when Mercury finally returns back to the astrological point again that it was at when it originally went retrograde back on April 1st, in this case, about 27 degrees Aries. 

  

You might want to check your chart to see where 27 degrees Aries is in there, as this will represent the areas of life most affected and activated during this time of post-retrograde shadow.

 

Until we finish moving through that post-retrograde shadow, there may still be some after-shocks and ripple effects yet to deal with from the recent Mercury retrograde.

However, at least you are on more solid footing now, so you should be more easily able to deal with whatever comes your way.

 

This continued time of post-retrograde shadow is not necessarily an unpleasant or bad thing, as it provides you with the chance to find completion and get closure on those things that you have been working so hard to deal with for several weeks now.

 

Remember too that the energies have now shifted into a more SUPPORTIVE stance, so that whatever post-retrograde complications or challenges you are still dealing with, help can come more easily now.

 

True, at times you may feel like you are back-tracking again. But only this time, when you back-track, you will actually be able to successfully deal with and resolve whatever it is you are working towards, rather than only being thwarted in your tracks.

 

Instead of encountering continued obstacles and resistance, you are more likely to encounter help and support from the external world moving forward during this ending stretch of post-retrograde shadow.

 

Of course, much of what you experience during any phase of a Mercury retrograde cycle will be impacted by the energies in your own personal birth chart, as this is the lens through which you see the world and express your energies in this lifetime.

 

Even still, whatever your personal birth chart or your own unique energies, your light can shine all the more easily and brightly in the days ahead, now that we have all gone through the challenges, initiations and cleansings of this most recent Mercury retrograde.

 

Here’s to greater peace, calm, joy and lightness for us all, as the energies of Mercury continue to lighten up and expand in the next few weeks!

Easing Spring Seasonal Shift

HAS THE CHANGE OF SEASONS GOT YOU DOWN?

(Or are you riding the flow and becoming more reflective?)

EASING SPRING SEASONAL SHIFT

By Rev. Dr. Psychic Cynthia Killion

03-16-2024

 

Here in the Northern Hemisphere, we are currently in a time of dynamic seasonal shift, passing from the end of Winter into the beginning of Spring. This transformation is represented astrologically by the transition from the sun in watery Pisces moving towards the sun in fiery Aries….

As winter ends and spring begins to emerge, this is a time of shifting from the heavy, withering energies of late winter into the lighter and more uplifting energies of spring.  During this transitional phase, we move through stagnation and heaviness back towards movement and momentum again.

And yet, we are not quite there yet, as up until the Equinox (and even for a little while afterwards) we will continue to teeter on the cusp between these two energies, riding out this time of seasonal shift, going back and forth between the contrasting sense of contraction versus expansion, stagnation versus renewal….

This time of seasonal shift can be hard, as many of us are still shedding the heavy emotional cloak of winter, and may need to go through a continued process of cleansing, healing, and releasing for a little while longer yet….and yet, re-emergence is just around the corner, with the coming of the Spring Equinox, and we can feel it in soul, even if our bodies and minds are not quite there yet. 

 

With this seasonal shift occurring, you may have noticed a shift within yourself too. It is not unusual at all to feel a bit more moody, introspective, emotionally tender or sensitive as winter shifts to spring.  In fact, you might have even noticed a flair-up of feelings of depression, hopelessness, or discouragement in the last few weeks. 

 

Even though a part of you is filled with hope or optimism for the future, during this time of shifting to spring, you may also feel weighed down with sorrow or regrets about the past, or overcome with self-judgment or self-criticism, or just weighed down with a general sense of emotional malaise.

 

You may find that you bounce back and forth right now between contrasting emotions and feelings, first being filled with a sense of hope and positive expectancy for the future, and then having the opposite experience of feeling doubt or despair, or just being overcome with RESTLESSNESS and impatience---

 

It is as if spring cannot come fast enough, as if CHANGE cannot come fast enough, and you are wondering WHEN will spring finally come…and more to the point, when will your energy, focus and motivation finally return, when will your heart and spirit jump and sing back to life again?

 

Have faith, it will come.

As sure as day follows night, Spring follows Winter.

 

With each passing day, the light will continue to increase, the plants and animals will awaken from their slumber, and begin to sing, leap, and scamper around, and you too will soon find yourself re-emerging and coming back to life again as well.

 

 

In the meantime, know that any temporary melancholy or discouragement that you experience at this time need not have a grip on you. Nor do you have to be kept down by the increased emotional and psychic sensitivity that often comes with this change of seasons…

That is, if you are willing to lean into your emotions and sensitivities, listen to what your heart is telling you, and learn to recognize the difference between your insecurities and your intuitions.

Nesting Before the New Moon

COSMIC MUSINGS:

NESTING BEFORE THE NEW MOON

By Rev. Dr. Psychic Cynthia Killion

02-08-2024

 

2019new/Nesting_Moon_browner.jpg 

 

NESTING, RESTING, CLEANSING, PREPARING….

  

We are gearing up to this month’s NEW MOON IN AQUARIUS, which will be exact late tomorrow afternoon (Friday 02-09-2024) here in the states… 

 

The days leading up to the new moon are a time of cleansing, organizing and preparation for the rebirth and spiritual activation that is just around the corner.

I don’t know about you, but I usually have an intense desire to NEST and CLEAN in the week immediately before the new moon….

 

Most of the time, I’m a decent housekeeper, but certainly no Martha Stewart.  (After all, I have several pets to keep up with, and no matter how much you clean, feathers and cat hair are a thing around here.)  And yet, come the week before the new moon, I usually start in on one of my over-the-top monthly cleaning frenzies….

 

This goes WAY beyond the normal maintenance cleaning that I usually do.  I’m talking about the kind of cleaning where you polish the bathroom fixtures and get down on your hands and knees with a rag to deep clean part of the kitchen floor after you have already mopped it.

(A friend of my husband’s once came to visit when I was in the middle of one of these pre-new moon cleaning frenzies…he was so impressed that he asked me if I hired out for my cleaning services, lol.)

 

Sounds a little insane, I know.  All I can say is that I feel GRIPPED by the powers of the upcoming new moon when I do stuff like this.  You’ve heard of full moon madness? Well, there can also be new moon madness, and this is what it sometimes looks like, lol.

 

I’m also an intense de-clutterer and re-organizer in the days immediately before the new moon.  I find that it is so much easier to let things go around this time, as my CLARITY increases as it gets closer to the new moon, and so does the urge for SIMPLICITY. 

 

During this time of the month, I de-clutter and clear out old stuff with the fierceness of a Viking.

 

I’ve talked to some of my lady friends, and many of them say that they too also have these strong nesting & cleaning urges right around the time of the new moon. I don’t know about my man friends, as I haven’t interviewed any of them about this.  (I can only say that my husband is happy to eat all the extra food that I cook in the week before the new moon, lol.)

 

It seems to me that nesting and organizing right before the new moon (the darkest night of the month) is just the way that our psyches naturally respond to the shifts and fluctuations in the lunar light.

 

Even though we may live in modern dwellings in modern times, it’s good to follow our natural rhythms when we can, as that helps to keep us healthy, balanced, and sane.

  

I also make it a priority to get some extra REST and SLEEP in the days before the new moon.  In fact, even after the new moon has activated exact, I find that it’s helpful to continue to rest up for a few more days yet, while the lunar energies are re-growing and re-building the themselves….

Having adequate sleep is one of the most beneficial things you can do for nearly every aspect of your life, including supporting health, well-being, spiritual awareness and psychic awakening. 

 

I should add too that to me, there is a difference between rest and sleep.  We need adequate sleep, of course. But in order to function optimally, we also need at least a few brief periods of resting and replenishment throughout the day….

 

Resting might mean just meditating more or having extra down time.  For example, I read an entire novel this week for fun, something I haven’t allowed myself the time to do for quite a while.  I also took a foot bath last night, to help tap into the strong spiritual cleansing energies that are amplified in the days right before the new moon.

 

These are things that feel like a luxury to me with all the professional and personal demands that I have on my time. 

And yet, I know deep inside that honoring and attuning with the natural cycles (including those of the moon) is a NECESSITY for health and well-being, and certainly a wiser choice than choosing to try to live against the natural rhythms.

 

What feels natural & right to YOU in this time right before the new moon?  Are you doing anything special to prepare for this upcoming New Moon?
