Aquarius full Moon

Full Moon in Aquarius occurs August 1st 2023

Ode to an Aquarius Moon

Oh Moon, shine bright in my body.
Wake me up.
To find connection beyond mind.
To be open even when surprised.

To honor sudden knowing without doubt.
Let my unique expression be proud.
Make me an open channel.
Bringing watery awareness.

To the light of soul.

In the sign of Aquarius, we have fixed (think consolidated) air. Jointly ruled by Uranus (modern ruler) & Saturn, the ancient or traditional ruler. Often radical, Aquarians are inherently different, with a drive to fit into the culture and be part of change. There is a drive to individuate to connect with a higher vibration, one beyond what most of us know or understand. Channeling this vibration on to Earth is challenging, erratic, intent on breaking up what is hardened, static and still. Within radical individualism comes the knowledge of a collective human consciousness & how water, which is necessary for all of life brings us together. So, we see a Water Bearer as the representative symbol.

Aquarius Moon people are known for being emotionally detached. They can be attached to being radical, different, and at times disassociated. There is a sense (which can be true) that nobody understands them. They are often leaders, isolates or people who work in a field where their ideas are recognized. Technology is Aquarian.

The opposing sun in Leo brings courage and heart. Love is the bridge between our bodies and the high vibration energies that Aquarius Moon is connecting with. We swing from Aquarius to Leo (in polarity) & over time we gain understanding of both perspectives & grow. It is a dance between the good of the one & the good of the whole. It is an elegant dance, one between air & fire.

We discover the more we love ourselves the more we have to give others. And in this case the more we find our inner passion & deep heart longing the more able we are to freely & powerfully express ourselves. The power of our true self-expression gives to others naturally, effortlessly and with great Joy!

Aquarius Full Moon Ritual

Bring a journal or something to make art with.

Find a good place in nature alone or with others
Sitting on the earth would be great but be comfortable and choose what is best for you.
Feel yourself on the ground and bring your attention to where you are sitting or connecting to earth.

Imagine you have a tail growing out of the bottom of your spine and it can travel deep into earth. As it grows your tail moves through earth and rock and you sense the smell of earth and feel coolness. You notice tree roots and you notice other people who have their tails moving into the earth. You begin to feel a connection with all there is.

And you bring that sensation of cool earth up into your body. Into every part of your body, breathe it up, fill yourself with just the amount that you need. When you feel complete notice how your body feels and look up into the light of the moon.

Keep looking into the moon until you feel a connection. Then ask her some questions such as:

What would you have me know about myself at this time?
Am I acting in ways aligned with my highest good?
What in my life needs to change?

Answers often come in surprising ways with this moon so be open to how you listen and receive. Write, do some art, feel any feels that arise. And most important be willing to hear even if it is uncomfortable.

Whatever comes through is in your best interest.

When you feel complete you can share with your companions if you are with anyone.

Give thanks to the moon and all you have learned.

Capricorn Full Moon on 7/3/23; Healing ritual:

Manifesting Heart and Soul Intentions

We are of the Earth and we are compelled to make something of our experience. Capricorn is the sign of manifestation. Capricorn, ruled by Saturn exceeds and excels in dealing with and making something out of the reality of our world. No matter how harsh or challenging it may seem, this sign will find a way to forge ahead, deal with any challenges or obstacles and make things happen.

The polarity of the Cancer Sun comes into play by calling us home to the nurturing Mother within ourselves. The protective loving Mother Bear who will make sure we have what we need for our comfort and safety. Cancer Sun is indirect, side-stepping like a crab but always aware of what needs to occur to assure her safety and to protect her family.

Capricorn is the Father and Cancer the Mother. In polarity we move back and forth from one side to the other. There is deep attraction and interest and so at the time of the Full Moon when they are in exact degree distance from each other we may find balance. Our greatest and most important manifestations are the ones that are the truest to our hearts and souls.

And in order to fully manifest our dreams we find ways to do any healing work which is needed. Our hearts have been broken, we have been betrayed, maybe beaten and abused if not in reality, then metaphorically. We live in a culture where our individuality has been forced to conform and comply with many demands. And it feels like our survival might be at stake if we don’t comply.

Our world and our culture will change as we do. One person, one at a time who has the courage to stand up and say no to what is asked of us makes a huge difference. Under a Capricorn Full Moon, we are offered the opportunity to go deep within our hearts and the soft, vulnerable underbelly of who we are in order to discover what is most important to us.

As we sense inside ouselves we may have feelings needing to be felt, expressed and loved up. This is good, this is what needs to happen to clear and forgive ourselves and each other for how far we have come from the beauty and source of who we truly are. And under this amazing, potent Moon we get clarity.

Ritual: This is best done in a group but works just as well alone.
Each person brings a bowl of water:

Circle; We sit under the Full Moon with bowls of water. Looking at our reflection we focus within and without words sense what is true for us at this time. What do we really want? When the fear voices arise don’t shut them down, instead, listen for a little bit and reassure them that you are safe and that this is very important to do. Just listen and ask questions;

What is most important to me?
What is my purpose here at this time?
What is my own unique personal vision?
What steps need to be taken next to assure this manifestation?

Next each participant takes a turn with all others in the circle focused with strong clear attention on that person. Do not interrupt the person but open your hearts and minds to what they are communicating. Do not react or even share your own thoughts. This is only about the person who is sharing at the time and nobody else. And if you do wish to say something to the individual hold it until after the ritual is over. Each participant will have a turn.

The person expressing themselves can take as long as they need or want to feel complete without interruption. When it is your turn take this opportunity to speak what is important to you from your heart. This Moon is asking us to be true to ourselves and with each word we craft our lives more and more clearly. We are setting intentions.

As we speak our intentions enter the water. We are honored by our circle of friends and this love and intention enters the water. Next, we turn our attention to the Full Moon. Each participant now works to bring the energy of the Full Moon into the water in their bowl.
Everyone can do this at the same time. And it is best to do it privately.

Reach your arms up to the Moon and breathe in Moon energy. Take as many deep breaths as
You need or want in order to really feel the Moon. You are creating relationship with the Moon and the Moon may speak to you in her own way. When you feel it is time take your hands and point them down to the bowl of water and charge the water with the Moon energy you have collected.

Do this repeatedly until you feel complete.

Then we pick up our bowls and together we put our faces into the water in order to seal our intentions and give them our own physical vibration.

Save this water, use it to clean any crystals, use it to anoint yourself. Put it into a bottle and drink a few drops of it (if you haven’t put anything into the water that would make this not be OK.

Open your circle!

Lilith Rises; Trauma Healing Trauma Healing through the Experience and Expertise of a Mystic

For many when you talk about Post Traumatic Stress Disorder minds will go to people who fought wars. But really PTSD is so much more prevalent than we knew. Trauma occurs in so many ways, in childhood it is now being referred to as CPTSD. R**e, Domestic Violence, physical and mental abuse, ritual abuse are common occurrences in our culture.

Many of us will keep working on ourselves but find that it may not be as effective as we had wished. Trauma can effect our brains, impacting our lives in major ways. Because of this it is important to identify ourselves as people with PTSD. PTSD can be addressed in different ways, and may take very different healing paths.

Lets stop pretending and be pro-active. Be proud, proclaim your truth. Stop hiding.

Soul is More than a Kind of Music!

Back in the 60’s I was a part of the Hippie movement in San Francisco. Many of us used mind-altering hallucinogenic drugs to assist in seeing life with new perspective. During one of those experience on L*D I watched energy move through a plant. Literally I could see how life energy moved through a leaf. Read more... https://lilithrises.com/blog/234499
