NEW MOON in Pisces – Supermoon – ECLIPSE – Spring EQUINOX awesome BLESSINGS!

FRESH START – NEW BEGINNINGS

It’s Spring Equinox! The Spring Maiden has awoken and encourages us to start sowing seeds for our future harvest.

The Solar Eclipse peaks at 09:27am in the UK (but starts a couple of hours before and will be over by 11:30am).

The New Moon in dreamy Pisces occurs at 09:36am in the UK and then about an hour later goes into dynamic Aries, the start of a new astrological turn of the wheel.  This is also a Supermoon so this is an incredibly powerful time.

This is awesome; talk about giving our manifestation plans a big boost! We are stepping through an incredible portal into our higher and greater Selves.

There was a powerful build-up to this awesome Event. Tuesday evening we were in the car and noticed that the Sun was an incredible golden orange colour in the sky, even more amazing was the Sun Path on the sea below, it was the brightest burnt orange, in fact it is hard to describe the exact colour as it was a colour neither of us had ever seen before.

I mentioned this to my darling friend Karen the other day, she shared that she had seen the Moon rising that same evening and it was a rosy pink colour, (again, she found it hard to describe the exact colour) she had never seen the Moon that colour before.

There are so many signs around us all the time.  Notice what is around you and learn from the messages that are being brought to us through Nature, via Spirit and in many other ways.

The orange glow of the Sun for me represents our Sacral Chakra, our Creativity chakra, the Sun gives us energy and to me, this was a sign from Grandfather Sun letting us all know that our creativity is getting a massive boost this week. Massage your sacral area so that it is as relaxed as possible to receive all that fabulous Sun/creativity energy.

The pink Moon is reminding us that Grandmother Moon loves us so much.  That She holds our emotions lovingly, allowing us to express our emotions however we need to.  She is always there sending love to our emotions. She reminds us that Love truly is the key to handling our emotions and to love ourselves first so that we can truly love others.  Attune to this New Moon (go outside if you can) and visualise this gorgeous rosy pink colour streaming down on moonbeams from Grandmother Moon into your heart chakra. Then allow that rosy pink colour to spread through your entire body and energy field, filling your aura with pink love light.

The lead up to this event also brought an increase in physical and emotional symptoms:

- Aches and pains returned with a vengeance. Including neck pain, the neck is a bridge between earth and spirit, the higher chakras and the lower chakras. Neck pain can also indicate that someone is being a pain in the neck, or that you are being inflexible about something/someone.  However I heard from so many people with neck pain this week, that I feel this is more to do with the powerful energies that we are currently trying to integrate.

- Chakra sensitivity especially Solar Plexus and Crown chakras. Some may have been feeling sensitivity in their Heart chakras.

- Tiredness and Nausea.

- Headaches – if in Third Eye/front and side of head, then you need to clear the chakras below this one, possibly all of them.  I believe that some of these headaches have been due to releasing, detoxing on every level for some. Powerful shifts are occurring, they start on the subtle levels then need to be processed on the physical level. Drink plenty of water.

- Backache - as old stuff starts shifting. Old fears (especially around money/sex), burdens you have been carrying for too long that you didn’t even realise were weighing heavily upon you. You are now being freed from all this.

All of this energy is massive and we have a limited physical form that has to continually adjust, integrate and settle with the energies being transmitted to us.  Keep drinking good quality, still water to flush out any toxins that may be released through this process.

Obviously, if you have persistent symptoms, please get them checked out by a qualified doctor.

Eclipses give us a reboot or a boot up the butt if we need it. Something major always changes with Eclipses. What is lost is always replaced by something far, far better. So there is nothing to fear, something really good is on its way.  Everything has to change now, all the ruts and old routines have to go in order for you to really start living. A new cycle is starting for you, which will affect your life for the next 20 years.

New Beginnings always follow endings, and yes you may be letting go of people, places, things, habits, routines etc. The new cannot come in unless there is space for it, so do not be afraid of any curveballs this Eclipse may throw up (and at times you may feel like throwing up!).  We will all be ‘stumbling around’ for a bit until things settle.  You must follow your heart; your mind may be terrified so you will need to monitor all the panic alerts and negativity that it may send out.  All will end very, very well for you and beyond your wildest dreams. So keep the faith, be brave, trust that the Heavens only want the very best for you and believe in yourself and your ability to cope. Something very wonderful is on the way.

SPRING EQUINOX

The Spring Maiden reminds us that it is time to start sowing our seeds for the year. 

What do you want to see blossom and flower in your life?

What type of harvest do you want for yourself later in the year?

Plan well and plant well, the seeds you choose today and over this Spring may be the most important you have ever sown.

As always with the quarter festivals of the year, it is a time that many choose to leave the planet.  Those that have done what they need to do, those that have had enough and don’t wish to continue will go now. This includes All Our Relations, including beloved pets.  Light and love to all those transitioning at this time.

It is no wonder so many of us have been clearing our homes and offices lately. As well as the annual urge to Spring Clean, we have been feeling the pull to simplify our lives and create space for the new to come in.  Continue doing this. You may be amazed at how much you get rid of.  You have changed so much, what you thought always suited you doesn’t any more.  It is a time of out with the old and in with the new. You may completely change your image, or the way your home/sacred space looks.  Be open to all of these wonderful urges, they are guiding you in the right way.

Take time out in Nature to honour the Green and Growing Nation, those darling plants that never doubt that they can renew themselves.  They never doubt that they have the ability to grow and flourish.  They never compare themselves to anyone or anything else, they just go for it. Guided by the light of Grandfather Sun, they leave their dark cocoon and push upwards to the light, ready to share their beauty with the world. And that is what we must do too.  It is time for us to leave the comfort of the familiar and burst forth in brilliant colour.

NEW MOON

All water signs would have been feeling it leading up to this New Moon. As it’s in Pisces, there is a lot of watery energy around.  All water signs and those with water prominent in their chart will have been feeling a little unsettled emotionally. This triple (or quadruple) planetary whammy may feel quite intense. Emotions may be all over the place, deep feelings of grief or fear or both. Your inner child may be struggling and feeling panicky, you need to reassure him/her that all is well that they will feel better soon once this transit passes.

All of us need to try and avoid drama, as lots of overreaction will be going on. (Pisces can be Drama Queens, so they need to be especially aware of this). It is also a dreamy energy, which can make it hard to concentrate and focus on tasks.  Use this dreamy energy to tune into your big dream/goal/project, as you will now receive new downloads about it/them.

Pisces folk - power struggles may come to a head with this New Moon.  You must relinquish control otherwise you will just create even more chaos in your life.  Go with the flow Pisces; let yourself and everyone else off the hook!

This is probably the most important Moon that has ever occurred for you, the Eclipse is also happening in your sign, this is going to be a life changer for you!

ECLIPSE

This Eclipse will help us to see who and what has been holding us back and will steer us into a new direction for a much happier future.

I remember the last time we could see the Eclipse so well on this side of the pond, it was the Total Eclipse of the Sun in 1999, which opened the 11:11 doorway and ushered in Mary Magdalene’s teachings and energy. So much has happened since then. How has your life changed since 1999? 

I made a powerful set of Essences at that time:

(1) ‘Ground Control’ – keeps your feet on the ground, balancing.

2) ‘Higher Light’ – Love, the transformer, clears chakra pain.

(3) ‘Dance of the Sun and Moon’ – Helps those intensely processing.

These Essences have been used by many therapists/practitioners who have had powerful results for themselves and their clients.

To celebrate today’s auspicious event, I am offering the whole set with a £3 discount. You can find it here (scroll down, page in alphabetical order) :
http://TheApothecaryGarden.org/KITS--special-SETS.html

(NB If you are an advanced energy practitioner, and/or familiar with shamanic journeying, there is a 4^th essence available in this set ‘Timestream’ - time journeying – sorry not suitable for beginners. Contact me for FFI and I will offer you the set of four with a £4 discount).

This Eclipse will release what needs to be released, (and that can include stuff that goes back as far as 20 years!)  Don’t keep judging yourself by your past; you don’t live there anymore. “Keep living in the past and you become a ghost.” Do you want to be a ghost in your own life?  Evolve or perish.  “Eclipses eclipse the past.” The past has dropped away, all the heaviness associated with it has dropped away, all the burdens have dropped away.

This year is all about getting ready for your greatness, it is your turn to shine.

This year you will be stepping out of who you have been and into the you that you have always wanted to be.  

- What does s/he look like?

- What is s/he wearing?

- What expression does s/he have on his/her face?

- What does s/he sound like?

- Who is around him/her?

- Where is s/he?

- What can you see or hear around him/her?

Visualise this person, it is you, you have brought your Future Self into the present, now you have a responsibility to be that person.

Go for it fearlessly. You are destined to do this.

SUMMARY

Transformation is occurring on a deep level.

This week you will receive signs from the Universe of the change/s that you need to make.

You may be feeling re-inspired to take up a hobby/project that you had lost interest in for a while.

If you have felt part of the furniture, invisible or stuck, then you can sigh with relief. You are about to be jettisoned into the future you have always wanted, and this time you are creating it on your own terms.

Let go of the power struggle that has been going on within you for some time now.  Let go and let God/dess.  Free yourself to do what you really want to do.  Stepping away from the way you have always done things, doing things differently now.

With this Eclipse, you may suddenly become aware of how vast and powerful you are. And this can feel scary, as it feels huge and you are not used to it.  Yet it feels great, it is balanced respectful power now, and you know how to use it wisely. You could even become aware that you can do anything you want, you feel so confident now about your manifestation powers. 

Have you wanted to try something new for a while now? Do it.

Does what you have in mind make you feel scared/nervous? Do it.

Is it completely different to anything you’ve ever done before? Do it.

Only you can know what that ‘it’ is.  You do not need to seek others’ opinions as you will know, it will rise up strong from deep within you and you won’t be able to (or want to) stuff it down.  You will know that you absolutely have to do this.

If you are overwhelmed by the energies/changes going on, then you need a bit of White Light Insight.  Repeat this little prayer to yourself, it is short, powerful and works every time. (It was taught to me many years ago by a wonderful Psychic and New Age Counsellor in Brighton – Paul Hatter).

White Light, White Light, White Light

Guard me, guide me, protect me.

White Light, White Light, White Light

Guard me, guide me, protect me.

White Light, White Light, White Light

Grant me Peace.

Take time to review and refresh the vision/dreams/goals you have for yourself, and in all areas of your life - family, friends, work, fun, spirituality, honouring your male/female self, etc. The question to ask yourself is:

“What do you want for yourself for the next 20 years?” 

It is a time of massive expansion.

Give yourself permission to do this, to move forward doing what you love.

Try something new with this New Moon.

This week something will change forever in your life.

What changes do you still need to make to make the dream come true?

Keep clearing to make space for the new dream to come in.

Do ritual/ceremony to welcome it into your life.

If ever there was a time to write a New Moon Wish List - it is now.

If ever there was a time to do a new Vision Board – it is now.

If ever there was a time to get serious about your dream – it is now.

If ever there was a time to accept your magnificence – it is now.

 It’s time for the ride of your life, so saddle up and have a blast!

Blessings to y’all!

FULL MOON BLESSINGS! March 2015

FULL MOON in VIRGO

Full Moons are the culmination of all that has happened over the past month. It is a time of feasting, mating and debating, celebrating all that has occurred.

VIRGO – I Be / I Analyse

Earthy, grounded, intelligent, common sense Virgo is a stickler for details. They will always read the small print before making a decision.  Ah decisions, Virgos want all the information available before even thinking about making a decision. Sometimes this gives them ‘analysis paralysis’, when their brain is so full of data that they are too ‘full’ or confused to make their decision.

Virgos are practical and dependable. Work-wise Virgos like structured organizations such as the health service (they are also nurturers and empathic), the armed forces, universities etc., (where they can use their analytical skills in research, detailed design, computing etc). They love bureaucracy and excel at making sense of it.

Virgo’s a loyal, reliable friend who is great in a crisis. They just need to ensure that they are not being used or treated like a doormat. Virgos are their own worst critics, they never feel they are good enough or have done things well enough. Enough already! This Full Moon lets you know that you are enough; in fact more than enough, you are fabulous! So celebrate yourself instead of beating yourself up over little things that in the scheme of things won’t stop the world turning. You have a mission Virgo, so raise your head, look up and aim for the bigger picture.

RECENT ENERGIES

There has been a lot of chaotic energy around the past few weeks; this is in part to the Uranus/Pluto clashes that have been causing us havoc since 2012. We are now going through the last of these – woohoo!

Many have been feeling different.  In the world but definitely not of it.  Third dimensional restraints such as time, dates etc, seem to have gone out the window. Energetically over the past ten years, we have all moved on so much that we are less 3D and more 5D these days.  Although we function in 3D land we feel as though we are somewhere else. It is hard to remain fully present in the now as we keep drifting somewhere else.  We are no longer registering times and dates and are missing appointments occasionally as we no longer have an attachment to the time constraints that used to run our 3D lives.  We are also no longer interested in propping up others; it is time for them all to stand on their own two feet and get on with it. The traditional 3D roles we have played out in our lives don’t have our attention anymore. We have shifted so these roles no longer fit who we have now become. Those who have shifted with you will come with you (so don’t worry, you are not dropping your entire family or your relationship!). Those who haven’t shifted will drift out of your life as they get on with theirs at the dimensional level that is comfortable for them. 

I recently experienced an example of this when I had the opportunity to connect with an old group of people I had spent many years doing development work with. At first I thought it was quite lovely, but I quickly realised that I had moved on and this all felt very outdated, as if I had moved on and they were still back there, and I realised that I could no longer be a part of this group. This saddened me a bit as every time this happens it makes me feel a bit more lonely, yet I know I have made the right decision for myself and I wish them all every happiness.

There will be a feeling of grief as you move away from what no longer matches you vibrationally, but the grief is short-lived as you also have that feeling of excitement inside, because you know that you are stepping into the greatest adventure of your life so far.  Allow yourself plenty of time for you new role/s to become apparent, you will be guided, so relax and go with the flow.

We are now able to access different timelines more easily and it will take a while to get used to being a true Time Traveller.  Physically we still inhabit Earth and need to continue honouring Her as we always have done, yet we also need to be aware of when we are time travelling into our pasts and futures and ensure that we return grounded and able to carry on.  And increase your protection, day and night, we are like toddlers learning something new and therefore have an increased vulnerability, and we all know the kind of mischievous cr*p that is on the astral and other levels just waiting to cause havoc.

Other aspects of this are to do with how high your personal vibration is and how much light you carry. Those who have done the work are shining so brightly now, but not everyone will like this.  For some, your light is too dazzling and they are afraid to be around it, so they will move out of your life. (Don’t forget that the brighter your light, the more they are able to see their own shadow, and they may not be ready to face that yet).

This can result in personal attacks for some, so as I mentioned above, be aware of increasing your protection during this phase.  You have nothing to fear, with that much light no-one is going to succeed in hurting you or knocking you off your pathway.  However, there may be occasional bitchslaps that can hurt at the time, just look for the lesson contained in that, it happened for a reason – why? Was it to wake you up to someone or something?  Was it allowing you to see something you have been missing – possibly that was right under your nose?  Did the grief it caused give you an opportunity to heal something big?

The Phoenix is being reborn in you. You are slowly and surely getting used to the new you, you have pockets of great joy and happiness especially when you are living in alignment with your inner promptings and guidance. You know deep inside, that you are on the right track so keep on keeping on.  Any tests and challenges are there simply to remind you of who you now are and what you no longer need in your life.

We are in the process of refining our lives, clearing out the ‘clutter’ that is no longer needed on every level, cutting ties with what no longer matches, choosing to surround ourselves with beauty, light, love and joy.

As you go through this process you will be tested regarding the people you allow into your sacred circle. Be discerning. Drop all guilt or shoulds. 

- Do they raise your vibration?

- How do you feel after speaking to them or being in their company – up or down?

- Is it a mutual exchange of vibrational energy (i.e. are you bouncing off each so well that both go away glowing with happiness and even more light)?

- Do you feel excited or despondent?

- Was it a balanced give and take? (Or did they take all you offered and not give much back?)

Trust your gut, if your insides are smiling and continue smiling, then they are a good match for you.

When you make a commitment of any kind, it starts a cycle of change. Commit to yourself and your life now and stand strong on your path.

Life is becoming more interesting and more exciting, and you are now no longer afraid to leave the past and what is no longer needed behind, as you are confident about striding forward on this wonderful new path being laid before you.

(I wrote this whole piece nearly two weeks ago, little did I know that I would be going through my own bitchsl*ps/Phoenix rebirth experiences, which I am still getting over!)

ASTROLOGY

This Full Moon is conjunct Lilith (Black Moon Goddess). Lilith invites us to celebrate our sexuality and encourages our freedom to express ourselves uninhibited. Lilith also highlights our dark side and encourages us to embrace our Shadow. 

(If you need help with this, we have a wonderful essence that helps you to dance with your shadow is a gentle, yet transformative way. It is called ‘Shadow Dancer’ and you can find it here: http://www.theapothecarygarden.org/ESSENCES.html

In Virgo, this Full Moon encourages us to stop being so hard on ourselves. If you wait until the right time/have the money/have everything you think you need before forging ahead with a dream or project, then you will never get started. You set the bar much higher for yourself than you do for anyone else, these high standards could be holding you back from getting started. It’s that good old ‘analysis paralysis’ again, it leads to inertia and inaction when what you really need to do is just start right now, with what you’ve got and give it a jolly good go!  You might be surprised at just how well it all turns out. But you gotta get started!

Many Virgos are healers, and this Full Moon brings us all healing for our self worth, self-esteem and confidence issues.  Allow Chiron (the planet of the Wounded Healer) to beam His healing onto you so that you can clear all this negativity and blossom as the confident self that you know you are inside.  Virgo will help you to ground this energy so it will be easy to integrate and assimilate it.

Also, one message that kept coming through to me over the past couple of weeks, is to watch your language.  The Universe believes every word you utter as the absolute truth and so brings you more of the same.  So if you feel hard done by, you will continue to experience reasons to feel hard done by. If you keep going on about how broke you are you will continue to be broke (author taking note of that one!), if you keep talking about how tired you are you will just continue to feel tired, if you are convinced that all men are b*stards or all women are b*tches – then guess what? Yes you will continue to meet more of the same.  Because that is what the Universe thinks you want!

(Of course, if you have not been feeling right for a while despite healthy eating, exercise etc., please do see a qualified medical practitioner and get checked out). 

Manifestation happens quickly these days, so think before you speak!

As a Witch, I often get asked about putting spells on people. I tell them that witches don’t need to do that anymore, as people are so good at putting spells on themselves.  The “I’m too fat/broke/unlucky etc etc” spell that puts them in a trance of the very thing they don’t want!  I think it was Florence Scovell Shinn that said “your word is your wand” and she was so right.

Now that’s manifesting in a positive way! ;-)

The way through the time that we are in, and in fact this whole year, is to take things one step at a time.  Try, try, try again and don’t get despondent if something doesn’t work out as well as you had hoped, keep trying and it will suddenly click into place for you.  (Author taking note again, after today’s candle experiment was an epic fail lol!). Remember to cancel that negative critic in your head, get over it, then think positively about what you are going to do next.  And don’t worry about what anyone else thinks about what you are doing, believe me they have got enough of their own cr*p to cope with without worrying about how well or badly you are doing something. 

Try to go with the flow and don’t put too much pressure on yourself.  

Allow things to come together effortlessly and easily.

It can be done.

Enjoy your Full Moon celebrations!

Many Blessings,

Elly x
