3-11-2013 New Moon 21 Pisces 12:51 PM PDT

Posted on March 10, 2013 | Leave a comment

new-moon-piscesIn traditional Western Astrology Pisces is represented by two fish swimming in opposite directions and not seeing each other. As a Water sign, emotions can run high and they can get lost in a fantasy “Neptunian”  world if not careful. This is WHY “mirrors” are so important, as we “mirror” for each other the TRUTH we “see”. Oppositions also help us to gain clarity, Pisces opposite sign is Virgo and we’re ALL still analyzing from this last Full Moon. Through Virgo we receive the gift of discernment and details that may otherwise be over looked. The polarities of these two energies can open us up Spiritually through the Masters … are you listening to your inner Guidance? It’s very strong and vibrant now, asking us to “tune-in”, the time is now.

In MWA this is the Big Winds Moon, it blows big medicine, as most people say they feel it BIG time! We’re coming out of Winter, hibernation, dreams and waking up to the new possibilities. The weather is just another indicator that Earth Mother is speaking and of the changes going on.  There is a lot of confusion as to what to do and many are in shock, much like deer in the headlights. Big questions like; what are our priorities? Work long hours to pay for a house where no one lives because they’re too busy working to pay for it? What is REAL and what is illusion? What do we keep or what do we “let go” of? This is why Cougar reminds us to be patient and watch the signs, we’ll know when to act and when to just lay low … if we’re “tuned-in”! LISTEN to the council of Masters that are just waiting for us to acknowledge that we truly are Spiritual Beings having this Earth walk experience. AHO!

So, New Moon … first I light my candle (I like 7-day novena candles in glass jar) and then I smudge myself first with white sage (my preference), then my offering to the 7 directions. BTW: “Dancing With The Wheel” Sun Bear & Wabun has some beautiful ceremonies that go into great sacred detail and also allow us to   to have a better understanding in our world with ALL OUR RELATIONS.

After the cleansing ceremony I take the time to review the last couple of weeks after this Full Moon Virgo and what I’ve gained in wisdom and understanding.  This is when I write my wish list and DREAM what I want to create next. I truly believe we are the Dreamers of our own reality and this is part of the process. Personally, I went deep into the void, deep into the teaching, deep into Ancient lifetimes of remembering what I forgot. This energy was in my 8th House of death/rebirth, grieving, the magical mysteries and letting go of what no longer serves (Virgo) … I’m doing just that, facing my issues and releasing them to Great Spirit with LOVE. I have battle scars on my face from the pain and depth of tears … NOW, I’m coming out of the darkness and into the Light with renewed hope for the future and the potential therein. May you FEEL that strength to do the same and welcome this New Moon with optimism and courage. New Moon, New Day, New time … create something NEW!

Love & Blessings Dear Ones

Oh BTW Monday 3-11-2013 Mars moves into Aries putting a little extra “kick” in our get-along! Best to remember that this can be a bit of a selfish energy when unevolved … “Centering the self rather than being self-centered” is the message here!  LISTEN & SILENT have the same letters – it’s a good idea to think before speaking, if possible!

2-18-2013 Sun enters Pisces (Cougar), Saturn in Scorpio (Snake) & Mercury in Pisces (Cougar) turns Retrograde

Posted on February 19, 2013 | Leave a comment

pisces-sunSun moves into the sign Pisces and the energies are shifting into a new teaching now … compassion, sensitivity, intuition and escapism for some! There is also a major meeting, Sun, Mars, Venus, Mercury, Chiron, and Neptune ALL in Pisces! The potential here for a peaceful solution to many disruptive issues is very high, humanity is tired of war and arrogance. Pisces is a water sign and there may be some major overwhelming emotions released now. Sorrow, tears for the children and resourceful efforts to help be of service!

Examples globally: The Africa Mercy Ship that gives free reconstructive surgery to the deformed, dental and health care and  emotional respect to the person inside, they help so many who would never have medical care! Or how about the Iron Shield (funded by USA) that stops bombs coming from Pakistan that probably would hit Israel. Families now feel safer and peace talks are resuming. ENOUGH is the cry from many families, CHANGE was asked for and here it is … we must move forward. Like the saying goes: “You cannot unring the bell once it’s been sounded”. This Pisces powwow is gathering minds and emotions together from all walks of life. May we join them in our prayers and continue to focus on what the priorities are … our future generations. Questions like, “what are we leaving them to fix?” and “how are we examples of everything we claim to be?” Christians, Religious groups, Spiritual Guru’s and whatever “self” we present to the world. These are issues for Saturn in Scorpio we’ll be continuing that scenario for sometime now.

Requesting help from our Guides and helpers is so important. By honoring them we expand our “team” and can accomplish so much more. Pisces/Cougar will  assist in heightening our senses, awareness,  psychic ability and dreams (keep a journal to review).  TRUST your instinct and first impressions, they’re really strong and vivid right now, it’s vital and very important to listen. Be Cougar and be silent while checking everything out. This is a time to observe the actions of others before “pouncing” or making important decisions.

Pisces (Cougar) is DREAMING the next step!

Pisces (Cougar) is DREAMING the next step!

 Saturn 12 degrees Scorpio turns retrograde today (2-19 until 7-7-13) and we’ll be “going back” to get some teachings we may have missed and really need. Re-tracing our steps, Re-membering family or those we may have forgotten along the way. Re-applying this to so many things, whatever that is for you! Re-charge, Re-new, etc. We’ve talked about how powerful this is (previous posts) because of Saturn in the sign of Scorpio (Snake medicine) until  9-17-2015 and how this is representing a transformational “shedding of the skin” … getting rid of anything that no longer serves and this is happening globally! It’s just the same for everyone; rich or poor, sick or healthy … we are letting go and allowing that which is for our Highest good to manifest. The “KEY” is different for each;  unique teachings  and  individual “karma” to play out. So, in my humble opinion the sooner we get out of judgement, of self and others, the sooner we can get on to what our true purpose and responsibility to Earth Mother is! So Be It!

Mercury in Pisces turns Retrograde 2-23-2013 (until 3-17-13 St. Patrick’s Day). During this period it’s best advised not to start new projects but Re-viewing old projects to bring forth now would be excellent. Re-lax and Re-evaluate contracts and paper work, Mercury is about communication and in Pisces there may be more opportunities to show compassion and sensitivity to others and to your “self”. Perhaps a massage  or “vision quest” is in order, Re-leasing the old ways and opening to a new way to experience life through the eyes of Great Spirit! There’s a deeply spiritual energy for those that eyes to see, for others there is a need to escape into video games, TV, partying and the like. The choice is always there, that is what free will is all about.

Look at what HOUSE in your chart that you have this Pisces energy in – that is where there’s continued teachings and gifts, where all the action is! I’ll be happy to take you on a journey to explore you birth chart info. ♥ www.medicinewheelastrology.com

Planets in transit Feb. 2013

Posted on January 29, 2013 | Leave a comment
Our Solar System

Our Solar System

1-30-13 ~ Jupiter represents expansion, good fortune and opportunities. It is the largest planet in our solar system and also offers us “protection” from outside forces. It  moves direct 1-31-2013 and since it’s in Gemini (Air sign) there will be more communication, contracts, writing and networking going on! Retrogrades are excellent for “going back” and getting something that was missed, perhaps it’s timing, rewriting documents/books/articles that needed editing or people we needed to “re-connect” with and heal any misunderstandings.

Love you!!

Love you!!

Gemini’s (or whatever “HOUSE” in your natal chart you have in Gemini)  need to take advantage of this opportunity, perhaps moving, relocating, publishing, new career possibilities and “speaking up” for what you want. Remember that Gemini are Deer People and they maintain a sweetness about them that is irresistible when they turn on the charm! Jupiter stays 1 year in each sign, (it won’t be back for 12 years) and moves into the sign of Cancer on 6-25-2013. Cancer signs get ready for this transiting Jupiter return next!

2-1-2013 Venus moves into the sign of Aquarius (Air sign) until the 25th (it then moves into Pisces). During this transit there’s usually a need for FREEDOM to BE unique and share “one of a kind” energies.  Music, unusual creative projects and  artwork are the focus. Otter are playful and love family gatherings which is a good way to catch up with everyone!

a shifting of perspectives; Venus wants her freedom and is ready to speak up for it and Mars is ideally showing compassion and allowing this sensitivity to deepen all relationships. Excellent time for healing now; for Chiron (the wounded healer) is in Pisces, activating a Spiritual conjunction with Neptune in Pisces. This  involves a Master teaching to oppositions of male/female energy (Capricorn/Cancer),  the “I AM” Aries/Libra, the resolution of judgement & balance … unity of opposites, which is ONENESS.

Sun in Aquarius (until 2-18-2013) also shines its light, which enhances whatever projects it’s involved with. Perhaps there’s more creativity in advertising a new business, inventing new ways to promote what’s been on the “back burner” for some time or expressing your gifts in a new way. Bringing or joining people together for a “pow wow” would be a good idea,  sharing lots of love and support!

2-9-2013 New Moon in Aquarius also adds an emotional longing to fulfill our DREAMS now and this power day is celebrated by the Chinese New Year, of the Snake.

Year of the Snake

We’ve talked about how powerful this is (previous posts) because of the planet Saturn being in the sign of Scorpio (Snake medicine) until  9-17-2015 and how this is representing a transformational “shedding of the skin” … getting rid of anything that no longer serves and this is happening globally! It’s just the same for everyone; rich or poor, sick or healthy … we are letting go and allowing that which is for our Highest good to manifest. The “KEY” is different for each;  unique teachings  and  individual “karma” to play out. So, in my humble opinion the sooner we get out of judgement, of self and others, the sooner we can get on to what our true purpose and responsibility to Earth Mother is! I love this Uranus (sudden & unexpected happenings) in Aries (Red Hawk) energy, there’s never a dull moment and it’s good to use those instincts to move quickly if necessary.  It continues to nudge us up side the head when we’re not listening, so that we can listen to what the intuition is saying! We’re honing our awareness by testing our reactions, becoming more aware of what we’re “saying” and owning it. Those with Aries  Sun/Moon may feel it more intensely, best to “circle” around and observe before committing to any projects first.  This is a powerful teaching of “centering the self rather than being self centered”. What “HOUSE” contains Aries in your natal chart? There’s a clue for evolving this energy and choosing other options.

Mercury (communicator) in Pisces (Cougar) turns retrograde 2-23-13 until 3-17-13. This is a time to “go back” and review past dreams, business concepts, contracts and intentions. Priorities and integrity are challenges and gifts now, we must be observant of our motives and justifications. Add this to the New Moon, a time of new beginnings, moving forward with our visions and claiming what we want and it’s a truly magical adventure with us as the DREAMER …

Full Moon Virgo 2-25-13 opposite Sun in Pisces allows us the “light” to see how far we’ve evolved with our relationships, compassion, critical nature, over thinking things and so many more self awareness issues. Ask “How does this serve?” … to argue, being right rather than kind, or being quiet and stuffing what you want to say or how does it serve to continue any behavior where’s there’s a need for approval from anyone! How does it serve? Letting go now …

Sweet Dreams and thank you for this opportunity to SHARE. Love & Blessings xoxoxo*

1/11/2013 New Moon Capricorn (Snow Goose)

Posted on January 10, 2013 | Leave a comment
New Moon in Capricorn-Snow Goose

New Moon in Capricorn-Snow Goose

This is the first New Moon of the year and the intentions we started the year off with are changing again! Snow Goose (Capricorn) does not like change, traditionally they return to the same migration-nesting  spots every year and they also mate for life. Together they guard the nest and when the time comes to move, the family often flies together. Teamwork is vital for the group, they respond to danger with lookouts that keep an eye out for eagles and other predators. Upon sighting a threat they call out to the rest of the flock, which may take flight. They are loyal and trustworthy and can be very defensive and strong when pushed up against a wall, they will not back down. And so it is …Today many “children” are moving back home with the folks because of the economic times, the family unit is changing, priorities are changing and values are coming back into alignment. The “family” is hunkering down with a wait and see attitude. The only security being what is in the moment and how to respond. The word responsibility has taken on a new meaning, the ability to respond to whatever presents itself in the NOW moment. We can learn a great deal by watching Snow Goose. Thank you!

Astrologically Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus and Pluto are all in Capricorn and this is what people are seeing in the news (Sun), feeling emotionally (Moon), talking about (Mercury), seeking loving relationships (Venus) and will be transformed by these changes (Pluto). It would seem that resistance to these changes only makes it worse, this may be why so many are “leaving” (dying) now, they just cannot accept the changes and physically their bodies respond to the fear.

Now let’s add Saturn (facing our fears and becoming the Master of them) in Scorpio (Snake) (until 9-2015) and we are ALL going through a “shedding” of our old ways. Snake doesn’t fear this process, it is a natural way of life but it must surrender during the process … renewed with a new “skin”, ready to live instinctively with strength and clarity. Watch how they go into a state of calm, often sinking their fangs into a tree branch and releasing … So Be It.

Scorpio (Snake)

Scorpio (Snake)

Now that’s what I want for this New Moon, to be able to release anything that holds me back from being the best I can be … clear, strong and determined not to let anything stop me! Now, I understand that it’s all been happening FOR me and not TO me and that’s made all the difference in the World. We are getting simpler in our lives, letting go of what no longer serves, giving all those things away (clothes, storage items, etc.) that we never (if ever) use and taking a close look at our spending habits. That is the gift of this New Moon in Capricorn …

12/28/2012 Full Moon 7 degrees Cancer (Flicker) 2:21 AM PST

Posted on December 27, 2012 | Leave a comment
cancer-fullmoon212/28/2012 Full Moon  7 degrees Cancer (Flicker) 2:21 AM PST

The light of this Moon is Cancer, FLICKER (woodpecker). It represents unconditional love, they have little heart shapes on their tail feathers and orange color under their wings. It was said that the orange was from the fire Flicker put out by flapping its wings until the fire was distinguished.  The village and all the people there were sleeping … Flicker saved its “human” 2 legged family. AHO!
The Moon receives its LIGHT from the Sun … Sun is in Capricorn.
Capricorn is “Father” energy,(opposite) Moon in Cancer is “Mother”.
Family plays an important role now; security, work and home are the main focus. Emotions are a big part of this cycle, listening to the “feminine”, and then acting in a “masculine” responsible manner. Balance of opposites.
Challenge: delegating to others so there’s more time with family. Trusting that it’s ALL happening for your Highest good.
Gift: a time for sharing resources and heart felt LOVE opening to emotional healing, healthy boundaries that allow others “in” without taking things personal.

We send blessings for this powerful time, just before we enter a new cycle 2013. May your homes be filled with family, health, prosperity, joy and gratitude! Thank you to ALL OUR RELATIONS   Love *Star*

12/13/2012 New Moon – Long Snows Moon – 21 Sagittarius (ELK) 0:42 AM PST

Posted on December 13, 2012 | Leave a comment

 •Spirit Keeper: Mudjekeewis/Grizzly Bear  •Power Direction: West  •Element: Fire  •Clan: Thunderbird  •Animal Guide: Elk  •Plant: Black Spruce  •Stone: Obsidian                  •Moon: Long Snows  •Motto: “I Perceive”

“From obsidian, people experiencing this position can learn about their abilities to perceive and mirror the thoughts and feelings of others. The black spruce teaches how to be soft and strong at the same time. and the elk demonstrates the power of beauty, majesty and cooperation. This is the position in which to learn about your desire for justice, and your ability to live with the dualities of nature and life. The Long Snows Moon teaches about mental strength, deep fear of emotions, relationships. teaching, and communicating. People in the elk position are insightful, independent, fearless, determined, and open hearted. They need to guard against being overly argumentative and erratic in intimate relationships. “Dancing with the Wheel” (pg 47) Sun Bear.

Thank you Marlise Wabun Wind for these books!

Since this is the last New Moon of the year, it represents an accumulation of experiences throughout our journey through the Medicine Wheel and now we go within and honor the teachings we’ve received and shared throughout the year. Obsidian is such a mysterious stone, it absorbs energy and holds it until it can be released. Personal experience of an obsidian ball we kept at home, it finally dumped everything out and I got really ill. Bury it or wash with running water, sage is also excellent! So let it be our intention, to CLEAR all negative energies we may be holding on (our or others).  It is vital now, our temples need the cleanse of sacred smudging.  The medicine of Elk is Black Spruce, the aroma is so healing and strong! You can also have a soothing cup of tea from this, it has the properties to loosen mucous and relieves congestion.

Smudging with sage, cedar or your choice!

The power of the Thunderbird Clan (Fire sign) represents the ego and the “creative fire within” to manifest goals. New Moon require this “fire in the belly” energy to accomplish these dreams and visions. I light a blue  candle on this New Moon, for peace of mind and clarity. Thunderbird shows us that the EGO is there to remind us of WHO we really work for, helps us get back on track when we listen. It has been said that “you cannot have the light without the darkness behind it”, the EGO gives us that choice and we say THANK YOU, without the tests, how do we know where our strengths and weaknesses are? Attitude of Gratitude is the way, it’s there right in front of us all the time! Elk medicine carries with it perseverance of always reaching for solutions to any problem and solving them!

Today the planet Uranus (Higher Guidance, Intuition) went direct and remains in Aries (warrior energy) and is Red Hawk power. If we take the time to “circle around” a situation and view it from a Higher perspective, we will get a bigger picture! Let that be our prayer for this time we’re in. From the view of Hawk, we can SEE there is only ONE Earth Mother and we are ALL her children. We are ALL in this together, we can use this warrior energy to activate that desire to resolve conflict and separation … to embrace ALL OUR RELATIONS in ONENESS, LOVE & PEACE.

10/29/2012 Full Moon Taurus (Beaver) 12:49 PM PTD

Posted on October 28, 2012 | Leave a comment

Taurus Full MoonThe Full Moon receives its light from the Sun … opposition Sun in Scorpio, Moon in exact opposite sign of Taurus. Scorpio energy is at a POWERFUL point “testing” us about our FEARS, who we TRUST and ally with, the SNAKE medicine transmuting poisonous thoughts and reactions. The mirror of this Moon in Taurus (Beaver) says “keep your focus on the goal” rather than the illusions of control. Who controls their fears, controls their destiny and Beaver is determined not to allow this kind of perception “I Have” … the ability to provide whatever is needed for the project at hand.

With the Planet Saturn in Scorpio, we MUST master our Snake energy and how we use our Scorpio energies to manipulate and scare people, like Snake that hisses to keep a distance. We are learning to embrace this power for one of healing energies for the self and others, so that we may also walk the path of NO FEAR. Evolved Scorpio assists others through the “void” of darkness into the Light of TRUTH. Gifts of Hospice, research or forensics are some of the fields they excel in. They are the way showers, the leaders and have the passion and dedication to set us free from our fears. Blessed Be.

So, on this mirror day, (3 days after as well) with the beautiful deep and intense Full Moon in Taurus (Beaver), this is the time to look at everything that we have acquired, including the gift of integrity and values that only Taurus can mirror to us. Turtle medicine helps us to ground this energy, Earth Mother welcomes us to release it to her … we do not have to continue to hold on to what no longer serves. Release, hug a tree, blow a kiss to Father Sky, BE ALIVE  and enjoy what we’ve created! The Beaver’s Stone is most helpful for the next couple of weeks and an antidote/equalizer, for Scorpio’s Red Garnet, would be:

Chrysocolla, power stone for Taurus (Beaver)
it is used for strength, stability, courage and prosperity.

Look at your birthchart to see where you have this energy going on in your life or I would be happy to do this for you. I’m having a Scorpio reading Special: www.starsavoy.com

With much love and blessings, we send our prayers out to Great Spirit for the courage to face who we are and have the knowing to BE IT!

9/29/2012 Full Moon Aries (Red Hawk) 8:19 PM PDT

Posted on September 28, 2012 | Leave a comment

Here we have this big beautiful Full Moon and it is a time of Harvest … what are we “reaping” from the seeds we’ve planted this year? This is generally when we socialize with our friends and neighbors (Sun in Libra) and share stories, food and friendship before the season changes to winter. Time (personally speaking) seems to be an illusion lately, whose TIME are we using anyway? Many of us are so caught up in the frenzy of the coming 2012 predictions or elections or ??? Well, Earth Mother shows us the cycles and what we need to do IF we just slow down and listen (my feeling knowing says we will one way or another!)  The energies are strongest 3 days before and 3 days after the Full Moon. FEEL the energies of this Moon and LISTEN to your own inner knowing. We call this “feeling knowing“, it’s trusting what our inner self says rather than what everyone else is saying! That’s a big one NOW, there’s so many opinions and “stories” about what will be! Lots of FEAR traveling around, but what if it is there to help us jump to the next level?? To clear all those illusions we’ve been caught up in.

The Sun in Libra (Raven) with its black body suit is a Guide to help us through the darkness, through what our deepests fears are and point to the LIGHT showing us the way to wholeness, to balance … to Oneness.

Raven speaks!

As humans we love stories; they help see from another perspective and that’s what we intend to do with the myths of astrology and the Medicine Wheel, to share a story/myth and how it affects each of us individually and within the “tribe/community”.  Now the Planets are also involved in this great dance! Please enjoy, thank you for taking time to feel if this feels appropriate for  you and experience the beautiful MWA of Sun Bear & Wabun with the Stars .

The Planet Uranus (sudden surprises, unexpected actions, erratic possibly volatile and Spirit consciousness) is conjunct (within 3 degrees of each other) of this Moon.  It magnifies and intensifies the energies, we can witness this through so much confusion and violence going on in the world. Astrologers are all talking about an aspect called a T-Square, we’re looking at Sun/Moon-Uranus, forming a T with Pluto, which is like holding the whip! Pluto (transformation) is heralding in a “dissolution” of outdated Capricornian (Snow Goose) traditional value systems. Snow Goose doesn’t like change, they go to the same breeding grounds every year and usually mate for life. Yes, things are changing since Pluto went into Capricorn (Jan 2008-Nov. 19, 2024). We’re all seeing this with the young ones and their set of values differing so much from the more “established” generations. Our “social matrix” is changing and our choice NOW is to get clear and simple how we’re going to ride through this. It IS the caterpillar transforming into the butterfly for some and there are other choices that each person will have to make for themselves and their families.

Thunderbird. Remember the story how Thunderbird got so puffed up with ego that he never gave credit and was warned to be more aware and stop being so selfish. Now, even thought he has so much to say and share, he can’t be heard directly or seen, credit goes to intuition of Great Spirit! AHO! I feel we must TRUST we are all here NOW by Divine choice. For many we agreed to come NOW and be part of this transformation. If you are reading this, you’re probably one of us that volunteered to be here. What does your “feeling knowing” say? This is such a awesome time to have this conversation and “see” it in the bright light of this powerful Moon. Remember Red Hawk is known for its keen and focused vision (eyesight), it circles around and checks everything out before swooping down for its catch! Hawk doesn’t miss much!

Sun enters Libra 9/22/2012 7:49 AM PDT

Posted on September 21, 2012 | Leave a comment
Libra

LIBRA (9/23 – 10/23) •Spirit Keeper: Mudjekeewis/Grizzly Bear •Power Direction: West •Element: Air •Clan: Butterfly •Animal Guide: Raven •Plant: Mullein •Stone: Bloodstone Jasper •Moon: Ducks Fly
•Motto: “I Balance”

Raven usually hangs out in groups. When we hear their “caw” it’s time to meet! Raven has always been associated with magic, proving “you cannot have the light without the darkness behind it.”

 Mudjekeewis, Spirit Keeper of the West, the Grizzly Bear needs space. They are introspective, protective and playful.

Butterfly Clan (Air Signs), always in thinking mode they prefer to be light hearted, rather than serious.Communicating is most important, they need to know what’s going on!

Their Plant is Mullein. Tea from the leaves is used to strengthen the kidneys, liver and bladder.

Their Stone is Bloodstone Jasper which grounds nervous energy and helps to strengthen a sad heart. Giving one’s power away can be exhausting, honoring the inner warrior heals this energy.

 Challenge: To be decisive. They need the support and approval of others to feel confident and accepted. Opposite sign is Aries (warrior) that is often silenced to “keep the peace”, stepping it up is an opportunity to speak up and take a stand.

Gift: To be the nonjudgemental Peace Maker, coming to the rescue of those mistreated, abused and in need. Honoring the “I AM” energy of your shadow Aries in a balanced and peaceful way.

“I Balance” … to the place where there is only love.

This is LIBRA (Raven) from my Medicine Wheel Astrology coloring set. Please print and enjoy coloring! Blessings xoxoxo*

8/17/2012 New Moon 25 degrees LEO (STURGEON)

Posted on August 17, 2012 | Leave a comment

Plant for LEO (Sturgeon) is Red Raspberry

Here we are finishing the teachings of the Sun in Leo (ends 8/21) and we have a new beginning as well with this New Moon in Leo. Just to refresh your memory, review the Medicine Wheel Astrology teachings for LEO:

LEO (7/23 – 8/22)  •Spirit Keeper: Shawnodese/Coyote  •Power Direction: South  •Element:Fire •Clan:Thunderbird  •Animal Guide:Sturgeon  •Plant:Red Raspberry  •Stone:Garnet  •Moon:RipeBerries  •Motto:”I Shine”

The New Moon is a time of magic … the dark void where we are creating our next reality. While in a state of awareness and gratefulness we will have an opportunity for creating our wishes in this next cycle. This is the time we ask Great Spirit for our special prayers and feel them in our hearts. (BTW: Leo rules the heart in the body). Everything now is about the HEART and how we’ve used this energy of LEO. Did we “Shine” in a good way while in the spot light or did we let ego (Coyote) bring shame and misunderstandings. Did we want credit for our actions and didn’t get it? (Thunderbird). Yes, the lessons of gratitude, humility and deep LOVE are all here in this teaching. Sturgeon didn’t get old and wise for nothing! AHO!

LEO (Sturgeon) 7/23 – 8/22

Enjoy all the delicious ripe berries now, for as we approach the next cycle we need to be ready. As we move into VIRGO, we’ll have a chance to “see” what our actions have been … who I AM (Aries), what I HAVE (Taurus), how I COMMUNICATE (Gemini), how I FEEL (Cancer) and how I SHINE (Leo).

My prayer this New Moon is that we wake up to each other and remember that we are ALL the same, there is only ONENESS and how much we really LOVE ALL OUR RELATIONS! AHO!

From the Heart Tribe  We are *Star*
