New Moon: November 26-29

Moon Cycle: November 26-December 24

Keywords: Release, ease, new beginning, start again, healing, reflection, honour, success, opportunities for abundance

The new moon in Sagittarius comes with a sweet sense of relief. If you felt that the past moon cycle which started in Scorpio on October 27th was a challenging time, full of inner conflict, tense emotions, unexpected changes, you can find comfort in this new moon cycle that falls in the wisdom-filled and healing vibrations of Sagittarius. With such a turbulent moon cycle (which included Mercury Retrograde to boot) behind us, it is a wonderful time in this new moon phase to rest in the dark and reflect upon the intentions you set, what manifested and what can be learned before you move into the final complete moon cycle of 2019.

Embrace Intuition, Breathe Through Change

While this new moon in Sagittarius brings a healing energy with it, we will be wise not to get too comfortable. Last moon cycle brought with it a feeling of disruption, a vibe of tension, fear of change and an array of challenges. Things were manifesting for us behind the scenes and many of us were confronted with the feeling of working so hard while waiting for results that never come. Understand that much of what happens to help direct our lives occurs behind the scenes and out of sight. So while we may be feeling as though nothing is coming to fruition, this new moon cycle may challenge that belief and bring swift change that could inspire feelings of fear or even a disbelief in our abilities to act as we must. Remember that we are all experiencing the same new moon and that others are feeling the same pressures and fears of rapid change. This can cause an atmosphere of irritability, anger and reaction.

If you find yourself in the midst of a tumultuous cycle, embrace the inherent wisdom of the centaur, the half-man, half-horse. Present in the human consciousness for centuries, the symbolic centaur can lend us a healing and wise energy while we decide where to aim our arrow next. Take time to find your breath. Moments of meditation and silence are when we are best able to tap into our intuition. Let your intuition comfort and guide you so that you can enjoy the ride.

Abundance On Tap

In spite of the tensions, there is opportunity to find the abundance you have been striving towards with this new moon. In fact, expect opportunities to present themselves to you and ensure you recognize them for what they truly are. Remain open and flexible and you will be in a better position to make the most of any situation that presents itself to you, finally generating the health, happiness and abundance you have been working towards. There is still plenty of time to ensure 2019 ends in your favour so manage any unexpected changes with grace and gratitude. They could be just the change you needed.

Moon Cycle: February 4th – March 5th

Full Moon: February 19th

Keywords: Good news, hope, optimism, joy, spiritual awareness, growth, abundance, understanding, happiness, good fortune

While the first new moon of the year set us in the right direction towards achieving our goals and dreams in 2019, the majority of us may feel as though January really put us through the ringer. The Super Wolf Blood Moon illuminated the shadowy sides of our selves and our relationships. We were confronted face to face with our egos and for many of us, it got ugly. In defence of our ego and selves, we fought battles that, in any other time, we would have left alone or at least approached with an altered perspective.

With this new moon in Aquarius, we are invited to honour everything that came up in January, learn from it and let it go. This is a very exciting moon cycle and we need to be free of spirit, heart and mind to reap the gifts it will bestow.

We’ve Been Waiting for This One

This new moon is indeed one of the most positive moon phases in quite some time. The alignment of the Sun, Moon, Mercury and Jupiter are signs of good luck, great news, happiness and optimism. Essentially, if you have been putting in the work on either a spiritual, personal, relationship or career level, the rewards of your efforts will start to come to light. We can look forward to a season of abundance and joy. Observe your mind as it reacts to the abundance and gifts that come your way this month. Allow yourself to enjoy every moment of happiness and deserved joy. Align yourself to attract the opportunities that you want to come into your life. They are literally floating in your vortex, you just have to allow them in.

Listen to Yourself 

The abundance of this moon cycle will be bestowed upon those who have invested in their spiritual selves. Our inner selves will be active in guiding our decision making this new moon to bring us the best results. Take the time to listen to what your guidance system is telling you. Your gut will be a strong driver to your success. Tend to your spirit this month through meditation, self-care, quiet, exercise, and activities that bring you true alignment and happiness. It is in these places and states you will have access to the messages you are meant to receive, those that will guide you on a path to great success and wealth.

Gather and Circle 

This is a beautiful month for gathering and connecting with friends and spiritual guides. Meet up with friends, set up times for close bonding or simple outings. Or better yet, go to a circling ceremony for February’s full moon. Connection will bring you prosperity,

Moon Cycle: November 7th – December 5th 

Full Moon: November 22nd

Keywords: Forgiveness, Transformation, Healing, Empathy, Spiritual Closeness, Manifestation, Compassion

The past moon cycle may have left you feeling slightly exposed and raw in the heart. Emotions were coursing through our spirits this past month, with Venus Retrograde still rampant and the full moon in Taurus unleashing our ego. It is entirely possible that we may have had our backs up, and tensions flared in our closest relationships, including our relationship with self. If you felt slightly out of alignment these past few weeks and had trouble finding your centre, rest assured that the new moon in Scorpio brings with it a compassionate energy that will bring relief and healing to the wounds we allowed to come to the surface this past moon.

Forgive Others, Forgive Yourself

One of the major ways we can embrace healing is through the act of forgiveness. What tensions were stirred within our closest relationships this past moon? Most importantly, what occurred during the past month that may have challenged our relationship with self? This new moon in Scorpio brings with it a compassionate energy that we can leverage to soothe and nourish our raw wounds, allowing us to extend forgiveness to those who may have done us wrong, while also allowing forgiveness to heal our own relationship with self.

This new moon, it will be important to embrace our love of self, as well as conduct strong acts of self-care and self-love. If we can nourish our most valuable resources (our inner being and our bodies) we are rightly prepared for the positive and strong transformations that this new moon can bring.

Manifesting and Transformation

The new moon in Scorpio will be an opportune time to manifest the goals and dreams we have long had in heart. This moon cycle brings with it a strong energy of transformation, that we can leverage to our benefit, with love and grace. Make sure to strongly dictate your intentions this new moon, while evaluating in your life what it is you would like to transform. Ask yourself if you are ready to become a newer version of yourself, and if you are open to what this new role will mean for you. Further to, the manifestation energy of this new moon is strong, however, we may need to revert back to the theme of forgiveness before we are able to embrace our next level of abundance. Stay true to yourself and see where you need to extend forgiveness in your life, or where you need to ask for it. Be humble, and more forward once forgiveness is granted.

Compassion and Grace

Above all, this new moon is optimal for compassion and charity. You may find your empathy to be strong. Remember that there is nothing wrong with filling your own cup before tending to the needs of others. Put your goals, dreams and health first, then move on to care for those around you from a place of complete abundance.

Brief History 

Turquoise is a healing legend in the world of woo woo. One of the first gemstones to be mined, the stone made its debut in ancient Egypt around 6000 BCE, incorporated into the designs of protective shields and made into jewellery for the likes of royalty including miss Cleopatra herself. Native Americans have long used Turquoise as a sacred stone to create a healing connection between heaven and earth.

Good Vibrations and Alignment 

Turquoise is one of the best stones to work with if you are feeling out of alignment. It is known for increasing energy flow, enhancing protection and clearing blockages in the Throat Chakra, thereby assisting in our ability to communicate our truth and self-love, awareness and self-realization.

Promoting a high vibration of love, turquoise is a good stone to wear if we are lacking in our personal confidence. Wear a piece of turquoise when you have a presentation or a task to perform in front of others that has you feeling a little shy, as it will help to remove self-doubt, guiding our communication to be clear and concise.

Well-Being and Inner Peace

Adding a pop of turquoise to your daily wardrobe is an excellent way to incorporate feelings of inner-peace, tranquility and an overall sense of well-being. The energetic vibrations that we can draw from turquoise make it an excellent stone to use in meditations as well as when we are working on creating positive affirmations.

Turquoise is an excellent stone to work with when striving to apply Law of Attraction to your life as it will enhance your emotional frequencies and promote feelings of clarity, gratitude and abundance, in turn, drawing those things into your daily experience.

Below are simply chic ways to incorporate turquoise into your day to day.
