This week I’m feeling energy of the New Moon start to lift me out of the shadows.
The last couple of weeks have been tough for me and for a lot of my friends and clients. The Waning (or diminishing) Moon brought with it a strong vibration of letting go. It was a time of transitions and release ~ which can have some very positive long-term effects, but are a real bitch to deal with when you’re going through them (trust me).
The stories I heard spanned from lost websites to lost lovers, and each was a difficult blessing in its own right. This past Waning Moon was a powerful time for releasing negative, limiting beliefs around money, unworthiness and fear. And it lent a great deal of energy to help us recognize and release thoughts and actions that just didn’t make any damn sense anymore (“Hello, why am I still doing this?”).
Normally, I love the Waning Moon. For me, it represents a time of rest, reflection and regrouping. In my spiritual business, I’ve learned to harness the ebb and flow of the lunar cycle, setting up my marketing calendar and programs in alignment with the Moon's rhythms, so I usually feel pretty stable. But on a personal note, this Waning Moon did me in.
As you may know, my son Tyler graduated from high school last week. And right now he and I are doing the “letting go dance” as he’s enjoying his last summer at home before heading off to college this Fall. Talk about a whirlwind of emotions ~ pride and frustration, joy and fear ~ all held together with a good healthy dose of Mom Worry (the most powerful worry in all the world).
Last week I spent a good chunk of time sulking in the shadows of the Waning Moon, feeling sorry for myself and mourning all that I’m letting go of. The truth is, I’m not ready! But are we ever really ready for big, big change?
It’s kinda like the Tower card in the Tarot. I feel like I’m standing on top of the tower with lightning flashing all around, illuminating things I hadn’t seen or known before, when suddenly the foundation starts to shake. And you just KNOW everything’s about to change.
But with the blessings of the New Moon this week, I’m starting to come out of the shadows to reconnect with the positive aspects of change. It’s as if the light of the growing Moon is expanding my awareness and opening me up to new possibilities.
Yes, there will be much I have to let go of, but that’s only part of the story. I mean come on… I’m gonna be an empty nester before the age of 40. And if you think about it, that’s pretty awesome!
Just imagine what I’ll be able to accomplish when my son moves out, I convert his bedroom into my new office/exercise room and I start to channel all of my unexpressed material energy into my business and myself. I’m gonna be unstoppable!!!
(Now if someone would please remind me of this when I’m huddled on the floor in tears tugging on my son’s pant leg begging him not to leave this Fall, that would be awesome, thanks!).
