Happy Monday.  Happy Full Moon in Taurus and Happy Super Moon!  Phew, what a lot of things to be happy about today.  Today’s super moon is the largest moon in the last 69 years and it falls in the sign of Taurus which represents illumination.  In other words “it’s about hitting that bullseye in order to awaken to our fullest potential and realise our goals, dreams and wishes.”  – largest moon in 70 years.   In fact this moon is going to help us to see things from a more practical and logical point of view as well as encourage us to think about our self worth and feelings of security in the world.  Both practical and spiritual.  

So I don’t know about you, but after the energy that has been bouncing around this last week, I am going to do some serious energy clearing and so I invite you to come into my “Energy cleaning spa” and let’s get you all bright and shiny prior to receiving guidance this week.

Gently close your eyes down (of course don’t do this if you are driving) and release your breath, let it flow out with a sigh.  Feel your body as you breathe slowly in through your nose and out through your mouth and imagine you are sitting by a lovely fire on the beach.  The flames dance in every shade or red and orange and throw sparks up to the clear, dark sky.  The full moon is in all her glory and lighting up the rocks and water around you.  On a log next to you is a beautiful shell filled with sand and on top of the sand is a sage smudge stick.  As you gaze at the fire you feel a wonderful, calm, loving presence come sit next to you, it could be angelic or a spirit guide, or an ancestor that has passed.  They smile at you and gently light the smudge stick from the fire and under the light of the full moon they swirl the sacred smoke around you, around the space and around the fire – creating sacred space.  As you sit and breathe in the sweet smell of the sacred smoke your guide invites you to see all the energetic cords that are attached.   As you look down you see a myriad of energetic cords, some thick, some thin, all glowing and heading out into the ether.  Some of these cords serve you as they are attached to a loving relationship or person and they nurture you.  Other chords don’t, they may be attached to someone negative or needy, perhaps a person who was unkind to you and they weigh you down and drain you.  

Without judgment look at all the chords and within the circle of sacred space bless them all.  Then if you are willing, invite your guide to cut all the chords cleanly and send the energy back to where it belongs blessed, healed and transferred.  See those chords dissolving and dispersing being drawn into the fire and then released as beautiful sparks up into the moonlight.  As each chord is released you can feel yourself getting lighter and lighter and as the last chord is cut the sense of joy, light and expansion floods through you.  So much so that you tilt your head back, smile at the moon and say Thank you, Thank you, Thank you.  

Your guide smiles and blesses you and then gently departs.  As you hold your hands out to the fire knowing that energetically you are cleansed,  you breathe in the last wisp of smudge smoke and as you breathe out you gently open your eyes and find yourself back in your glorious cleansed body.  

Ready to see the guidance, support and love coming to you?

AGAINST THE GRAIN

You want birds to able to fly underwater.  You want love to trump power.  You want humanity to relate to each other as equals and to recognise the sacredness in you and in the world around you.  You want to unleash the beauty that hides in even the ugliest of scenes or sentiments.  You want to make possible what others say cannot be.  You are a radical dreamer, a sacred rebel, and you bring the light of a more positive future to this world.

However, this can have its burdens.  Deep within you may feel that you don’t really fit in with the rest of the world.  Perhaps your sense of how things can be and how they really are, is so different to the smaller minds or more fearful hearts of many others that you are rarely received for all that you offer.  This might make you feel frustrated, thwarted or lonely at times.  

You are someone who lives and breathes in the depths of creative waters.  You need to lose yourself to the flow of music, nature, dreams, imagination and fantasy, through art and literature, meditation, dance and in sensual surrender to the sacred waters of the ocean, the river, the lake – or the bathtub!  You must go against the grain.  It is just your way.  You are not one of the followers but one of the agitators.  You are a loving catalyst and by simply being yourself, you constantly remind people that there is always another way.  You are meant to be exactly as you are.  You are meant to be the black sheep, the rainbow sheep or even the wild wolf in the flock of sheep!  When we are who we are in truth, we attract the support, protection and energy that we need to thrive.  Your power comes from aligning your outward self with your inner truth, not with the general consensus.  You will then find other dreamers, other wild butterflies and atypically coloured sheep to join you in conjuring better visions for our world.  

NEW BIRTH GUARDED VIGILANTLY

In every creative process, in every birth, in every opening of a new cycle of life, there is a time of vulnerability.  This vulnerability is natural and appropriate.  It is the foal learning to become steady on its legs  Those legs will become remarkably powerful in time, but the process of growth and maturity has to take place, and that requires some wobbly first attempts.  It cannot be any other way.

Within you, there is fresh new life emerging like a vibrant green shoot rising up from the earth.  This new life is in need of your attention and your care.  This could be a new relationship that needs tending with interest and kindness.  It could be a new idea that you need to nurture into fullness, because it is going to hold special purpose for your life path.  You will not always need to cloak that which is young.  Soon enough it will be able to stand up for itself, but for now, your vigilance and care is most certainly required.  

Hug your ideas to yourself as though they were a new lover you cannot bear to share with another.  In time the world will be the lover receiving the love in your idea.  For now, it is for you to love, for you to hold and for you to observe.  Keep your sanctuary pure, this may be your room, a sacred place you visit, your own body, into which you retreat in relaxation or meditation.  Sometimes you will find that others have taken up residence in your sanctuary.  It is time to focus on the purity, light, love and compassion that dwells within you.  Everything else will come and go, and that is just fine.  But the purity within your sanctuary is eternal.  Firmly denounce any intrusion upon the new  life by doubt, fear or sabotage.

INSPIRATION

An idea has captured your attention – or will do so very soon.  It may be a grand vision or the vague sense of something that could be. You are being encouraged to accept the vision, the idea or the inspiration as it is important to your creative and spiritual growth.  

Also, it IS possible.  The bee is bringing  you healing medicine-wisdom from nature to aid the message of the oracle of Inspiration.  The bee is a powerful spirit totem.  Bees are able to fly with wings that are significantly small in proportion to their heavier bodies.  Your idea, even if it seems like a big, substantial plan that might be difficult to “get off the ground” and up and running, can succeed.  You will attract great helpers to you and the Earth will support the success of this project, idea or vision, because it is about helping the greater good, as well as your own growth and development. 

Allow inspiration to fill you with enthusiasm, an expectation of magic and marvelous synchronicity, as people, situations and opportunities fall into place to help bring your inspiration into reality.  This idea has the potential to flower into so much more than you realise.  You are meant to think and do things differently .  Your inspiration comes direct from the universal creative source and you are being asked to believe and recognise the signature of great intelligence within your inspirational ideas and creative urges – and to act accordingly.  Bee-lieve!
