FULL MOON SCORPIO + ENERGY REPORT 4/3-5/6

April's energies had us in the continued work of redefining our boundAries - the ability to know where we begin and end and the place that others, and just about everything else on earth has within that realm. Since the beginning of the year I personally have felt a complete reworking of who I am intrinsically, a honing process where I'm looking into the often overlooked nuances and subtleties of my own healing progress. My successes have been in my ability to bring my healing out of the realm of ideas in my head and into my body, but often I get there by spirit pushing me to the edge of what I think I can handle. I think we have all seen just how strong we are, we KNOW what is going on mentally, and now we need to facilitate the shift by supporting the next steps to bring that knowing into the body for the real healing to take place. THE ENERGY OF TAURUS This month we are asked to be present to our bodies, our homes, our experience of grounding and nesting through the energies of Taurus. Themes we are tackling through the month is our available resources, our material experience, our values, safety, security, and comfort. Taurus is an earth sign, and it's fixed meaning it's steady but sometimes steadiness can be harnessed as stubbornness. Taurus has a tendency to not processing ANGER efficiently, it's a patient since ruled by Venus - planet of harmony, artistry, worth, wealth, affection, value. This intrinsic need for patience and peace means that sometimes it is driven to its breaking point which ends in an eruption rather than utilizing boundaries properly. Allow the energies of Aries to continue to work their magic within the realm of Taurus. As we work through the zodiac energies during the year, it's an opportunity to utilize them all, gathering knowledge and a more balanced approach using all available energies. Taurus asks you to dig in, get grounded into the soil of life. What are your intentions around financial security, home stability,  creativity, love? What sustains you?  This is a month to ground our ideas into reality, small step by small step. Taurus rules finances, banking, personal possessions. Why do we want what we want? What are we willing to do to get it? What is the motivation behind what we perceive as "safe and secure"? All things to consider as we build to our New Moon in Taurus mid month. SUNDAY 4/29 FULL MOON SCORPIO The theme of this full moon is "Honoring the cycles of your body with discipline". The moon represents our feelings, intuition and our natural rhythms. It an also represent our fears and delusions and Scorpio is an energy that wants to bring the secret to light. Scorpio is a placement that can be deep, obsessive, sexual, passionate, forceful, compulsive. Something new is trying to begin in our physical world and in our physical habits at this time. Scorpio is deep, it's the deepest, stillest, blackest water and we have to ask, whats underneath? Secrets maybe revealed -remember we are still looking at the underbelly of the underbelly with our Jupiter in Scorpio retrograde - expanding through excavation. This Full moon will be an excellent time to "let shit go" as Scorpio also rules the excretory system and bowels! What do you need to 'dump'? okay done with puns..MORE LINKED BELOW! 

2018 The Cycle Ahead + Super Full Moon in Cancer on 1/1 - Alll the details on intention setting and astro insights below in this weeks newsletter <3

I've been back from my personal travels for less than a week and I'm already seeing the collective themes circulating in my one-on-one healing sessions. We are experiencing major transformation of deeply rooted emotional energy this week, and a call to greater accountably to self care practices. With the moon in it's exalted sign of Cancer, it's no surprise that the first full moon of 2017 would be watery and emotional in nature. With the water signs also comes deep connection to our intuition and innate psychic gifts, so try to make the best of the emotional upheaval, think of it as a cleansing and a detox for your spirit, you'll surely find some pearls of wisdom coming your way.

First thing is first, Mercury has officially gone direct! Although I would hold off until the last week of January on signing any major contracts or buying new technology, we are mostly out of the woods in this respect for now. In fact, in a generally unprecedented twist, over the next month there will be NO planets that are retrograding! This means our inward work that we have strived for so clearly through the past year can finally find its footing in the outward world. There is added amplified energy for movement and action after the energy dragging us backwards over and over again, however this week we are seeing some powerful squares with Pluto, planet of transformation, shaking up our breakthroughs. In this day and age, it's not smooth sailing. The times require our diligence in sticking with the process of evolution and consciousness, but we really ARE becoming accustomed to these shifts and awakenings, and the energies are offering us assistance in moving through some major life aspects at this time. With no planets holding us back, finding time for reflection, rest and rejuvenation ourselves will be key.  We want to make sure we are constantly holding the space of balance between our need to do and achieve with our needs of be-ing, feeling and receiving.

Our thoughts and emotions are rapidly manifesting into form in this year of intention and creation. What are you creating right now? What is the primary quality of how you have been feeling? What do your thoughts mostly consist of recently? How well have you been taking care of yourself through it? This full moon in Cancer is highlighting all things emotional bubbling up to the surface while the Capricorn sun gives us the practical and earthy energy necessary to build on our self care rituals and routines as a means to ground and cope through it. We are bringing more of the spiritual world into form at this time. It can be confusing at first, we can feel overwhelmed and off as we get our bearings, keep fighting the good fight, I promise it IS worth it, and YOU are worthy of the clarity and divine connection making it's way to you.

The themes we might be seeing manifest at this time are: - A need for security, both financially and emotionally - A call to nurturing of self and others, and of greater emotional intimacy - Longing for 'home' either a literal place or a connection to the home within - Greater need to connect to women & 'mothering' - Emotional impressions around motherhood or our relationships with our mothers coming up for healing - Healing of childhood memories and embedded patterns of behavior - The desire to cuddle and connect physically with others - Heightened awareness to Intuitive and psychic information - Imaginative and creative gifts coming to the forefront and a need to express them

Our emotions are the key to our intuition, as intuition can be most clearly understood through the sensory mode of feeling. If we are not in the pattern of expressing our emotions in healthy and constructive ways, then it can be unclear what our intuition is trying to communciate to us and we can feel overwhelmed, anxious or depressed. Spiritual growth is ultimately very uncomfortable, and sometimes we have to face painful feelings and uncertain truths in our healing to be able to move forward. A lot of times we hold ourselves back from feeling through our emotions because we are both afraid that we are failing if we don’t feel good all the time, and we are afraid if we allow ourselves to feel our pain, to let the emotional eruption happen that we may be sitting on, that we might never come back to feelings of peace, contentment and happiness. Emotions need to clear, and in order to clear, they need a release. What are your conscious methods of emotional release at this time? Writing, painting, music, dance and fitness are just some of the mindful practices that help us to work through our emotions.

We must keep in mind at this time that spirit doesn’t see things in terms of good and bad or failure and success, everything is an opportunity to grow and learn. There are gifts inside of every one of our bad feelings, or our perceived mistakes and failures. The universe loves you regardless of if you follow the same patterns over and over again, spirit never tires of giving us second chances.

How will you honor your feelings through this Full Moon in Cancer? How can you implement greater self care practices at this time to nurture yourself through the release? Make an appointment for a massage or healing treatment, pamper yourself and look for ways to receive love, care and support at this time. All is well.
