Ladies,
Are you still basking in the energy of this week’s Full Moon? I know I am!
For years I’ve been striving to live my life in harmony with the cycles of nature… the seasons, the moons and even the tides. And why not? Life ebbs and flows, so we might as well learn how to ride those waves instead of being knocked off our feet by them.
But this Full Moon brought me a special gift ~ the opportunity to shift my perspective (and my bad attitude) in a BIG way.
So here’s the deal… Lately, I’ve been dealing with massive changes, shifts and transformations in my life on every level from personal to professional. Some of these changes are “good” (like my son’s upcoming graduation from high school ~ go Tyler!) and some not so “good” (like my Grandpop’s recent passing).
And although I am a self-proclaimed “change junkie,” too much of anything can overwhelming. The result? One bitchy high priestess!
For the past several weeks I’ve been cranky, reactive and at times outright aggressive. Not really the energy I’m going for in my life. And with the energy of the Full Moon, intensified by my own internal Moon Flow… Well, let’s just say I was not somebody you wanted to piss off this week (just ask my husband).
But with my awareness of the energy and the rhythms of the planet and my own body, I was also aware that I had the power to change myself. So instead of giving in to the crazy, chaotic energy that had been swirling around me, I decided to harness that energy and channel it into something more positive.
So I gathered a group of my Ladies together for a little Moon-itude adjustment.
There we stood, in my back yard with candles lit, incense burning, and the light of Lady Moon, full and in all her glory, shining down on us. And under this light I took a good, long look at myself ~ flaws and all.
Some of what I saw I liked, other parts made me feel uncomfortable and even a little scared. Under the light of the Moon I saw my whole self and I made no apologies. I decided that instead of judging myself I would simply honor myself and all my imperfections while still striving to be better ~ to be a more complete expression of my divine self in spite of my human ego getting in the way sometimes.
So today I’m a softer, gentler version of me… Less reactive, less agitated, less bitchy. And a whole lot more content. (But just to be safe, I still wouldn't piss me off ;).
