Full Moon: October 13-16

Keywords: release, new beginnings, leadership, progress, improvement, positivity, enjoyment

It is not surprising that this particular Full Moon falls over the Thanksgiving weekend, a time when we are called to express gratitude for our blessings. The astro-energy of October has been tense and rigid. You may have felt on edge, irritable, cautious and quick to anger and judgement. Various planetary alignments occurring since the beginning of the month and early this year have worked alongside transformational shifts both in our personal lives and on a global scale. We can observe this as we head into election time here in Canada and as conversations and international news start to become ever more intense. In short, we can expect 2020 to be a life-transforming year, one that we can start to create for ourselves more consciously in the final months of 2019.

Where Were You In April?

Taking a step back and reviewing where you were in April 2019 against where you are in this present moment is an excellent way to view your process and personal transformation. Were you challenged in some intense way? Where you asked to make big changes or step into new roles, personally and/or professionally?  Chances are your mindset and life position was different than it is currently. The last five-six months may have thrown challenges and obstacles our way, indeed. How did we overcome these challenges? Did we recover with grace? Or did we fall and collapse? Whatever the answer, this full moon will bring us into a spotlight, inviting us to release past ideas and habits, relationships and situations so that we can head into the new year with arms open for new and wonderful things to come. Let go of what was holding you back.

Release, Release, Release

If you have one mantra for this full moon, let it be “I release”. Release past expectations of who you thought you were meant to be. Release the tension and edgy irritability or need to control situations. Holding onto these things will simply work to hold you down. This full moon, we are finally granted permission to release the past and accept a free flowing sense of better energy and better circumstances. You deserve what you want, and only by releasing past expectations or belief patterns that do not serve will you get it.

Become a Leader in your Life

As Aries is the first sign in the zodiac, we are encouraged to leverage this leadership energy and step into our personal power for the new year that is speeding our way. Now is the time to put down your intentions and determine how you want 2020 to look for you. Embrace leadership, embrace the opportunity to step into the spotlight of your own life and start managing its direction. Refuse to take the back seat. Ask for exactly what you want and breathe freely into the new spaces you will start to manifest for yourself.

Each and every one of us walks through life with Guardian Angels. Our angels answer questions while protecting and guiding us, using signs and signals. Angels are such pure, light and high vibrational beings, that the physical world can’t actually connect with them until we raise our own vibrations and consciously invite them in. Once this doorway opens, it’s possible that we can start experiencing phenomena like the frequent appearance of angel numbers, the most typical way our angels connect with us.

What Are Angel Numbers?

Angel numbers are recurring number sequences that appear in our day to day life whether that be on an ad, license plate, clock or anywhere else you could possibly see a number. Angel numbers can even come through via popular social media platforms, like Instagram. These numbers usually come up in single or triple digits.  When you see triples, be prepared for a major change.

Have you ever had a scenario like this?

You get a call with the middle digits 444, then a couple days later you walk past house number 444, which seems like a coincidence. A little later your vegan snack rings up to $4.44 at the register and you’re start thinking something’s up. Well those spidey senses aren’t wrong. That’s your angel speaking to you.

What Does it Mean When I See Angel Numbers?

So Angel numbers aren’t your average 1,2,3’s. Each time you come across an angel number, it’s carrying a powerful meaning and message brought to you by your angels from the Divine Creator, Spirit or whoever your god of choice is. Experiencing our the presence of our angels is more than just a “hey” from the heavens/. They connect with us because they’re bringing us an important message we need to know. Usually, this message comes from a place of love and positivity. These messages could be a reminder to stop and allow the natural changes that are happening or perhaps that you are in need of a reminder that the universe, does in fact, have your back. Often times, our Angels are speaking to us when we are subconsciously seeking answers. The numbers we see have been uniquely placed for you to see and to receive at that exact moment.

What Do I Do When I See My Angel Numbers?

If you see these numbers take this chance to open yourself up and connect with your Guardian Angel. Most importantly, you need to do your research to find out what those numbers mean to figure out what the message is that your angel is trying to send you. When Angel numbers come up, it means there’s a strong spiritual presence, so take advantage of this opportunity to connect with a higher being to gain clarity, strength and guidance. Meditation, self-care, and resting practices are an excellent way to open up to receive further guidance.

I Don’t See My Angel Numbers Anymore

When you stop seeing your Angel numbers, it’s likely because you’ve gotten the message that your angel wanted you to know. So don’t fret or feel like you’ve lost the chance to experience your Angel. Your Angel is still there. Express gratitude that your Angel made itself visible to you as a reminder that you have support, love and the strength you need for whatever challenges may lie ahead.

New Moon: September 28

Moon Cycle: September 28 – October 26  (Full Moon October 13)

Key Words: Enjoyment, good fortune, harmony, balance, negotiations, transformation, healing

Super Transformation

The new moon in Libra on September 28th is also a Super New Moon, meaning that we will be able to feel its potency and influence strongly. Further, its proximity to the Equinox means the veil between Earth and Spirit is thinner than normal. These elements combined will give us the opportunity to delve deeper into our consciousness to determine what seeds we would like to plant for this moon cycle ahead. So find time to indulge in quiet, solitude and delve deep inside. The opportunity is strong for deep and pure transformation ahead.

And change is all around us, indeed. The leaves are changing colour. The weather is turning cooler and we have just three months left of the year. We are accumulating the data we collected during the bustle of September and while we may find we are wanting to retreat inwards for warmth and comfort, this new moon in Libra encourages us to get out and in touch with others.

Good Vibes, Good Connections

The harmonious energy of Libra makes this a wonderful time to connect with our partners, family, friends and colleagues. Bonds can be strengthened under this Super New Moon so if you are feeling a call to connect deeper with those around you, reach out, make the move to explore a deeper realm of a relationship.

Harmony and balance is a strong theme with Libra. Not only are we invited to find harmony in our connections with others but we are also invited to find a harmonious balance between our attachment to our physical presence on this Earth and our Spiritual essence. We are reminded that our current Earth experiences are not permanent. We have been here before and we will be here again, in many forms and shapes. We often get so caught up in our day to day stresses that we forget to surrender to the will of the Universe. We forget that our current experiences are being offered up as soul lessons. What happens to us and around us does not dictate the meaning of our soul. Only in surrender can we find true alignment with our soul’s desire and path and only in surrender can we become better in our relationships, with ourselves and with others.

Release Stress, Stay True To You and Welcome Change and Love

We are welcomed to release past stresses under this new moon while standing firm in our vision for our futures. If you have been working hard on your dreams and goals, the opportunity for manifesting under this new moon is potent. Hold strong in your values and what you believe you are worth. Negotiate better for yourself if you are presented with something that asks you to compromise. The harmonious energy of Libra will support you in your vision and truth. Hold out for what is right and aligns with your vision for your future.

With that, however, be open to the various new ways your life can potentially unfold. You may find you are being presented avenues that represent strong change. Do not let your fear hold you back. Move forward with meditative grace.

The opportunity for love, fun and happiness is abundant with this new moon. So move forward with an open heart and say hello to the next step in your journey.

 

 

Full Moon: September 13-17

Keywords: grounding, illumination, humble, remain open, spiritual, harvest

This powerful full moon upon is falls in the watery, dreamy and sensitive sign of Pisces. This is the final full moon of the season, the full moon before the Autumn Equinox, named the Harvest Moon and a time when the light allows farmers to work a little later into the night as they strive to get their summer crops in before fall. While most full moons arise about 50 minutes after sunset, a Harvest moon will share its light approximately 10 minutes after sunset, meaning we are getting extra time to get everything we need from the seeds we planted this summer, while preparing for the colder season ahead. Isn’t astronomy beautiful?

But Why Am I So Sad? 

If you are feeling as emo as a Neil Young song, you aren’t alone. Things are coming up as a revelatory summer comes to an end. We are invited to reflect back to where we were during during June’s full moon and summer solstice and see what has developed since, where we have grown, what we have shed, what we have built and created and what we have learned. Transformation combined with seasons and eras coming to an end is bound to bring out one’s emotional tendencies, especially if we are ultra connected to our spiritual energy. The extra light of the full moon brings even more illumination to specific areas in our life that are calling for nurture and attention. You may be feeling raw, exposed, and emotional. For some, that emotion manifests itself as anger so be observant of your responses to certain situations, as well as how others respond to you.

Illumination and Clarity 

The extra light of the Harvest moon offers us the opportunity to connect with our own need for clarity on certain situations that may not be sitting quite right at the moment. Take time this full moon to observe your present life and reflect on areas, habits, and people that are absolutely and truly not serving you anymore. We have access to greater clarity under this full moon so do not ignore what comes up. Listen to your heart and observe the signs you are getting. It’s time to shed old stagnant layers from your life, just as the trees drop their leaves. Say thank you. Move on.

Find Your Footing

This is an important full moon for grounding ourselves. Because the opportunity for greater clarity is strong, we may find ourselves caught up in day dreams and wishing and wanting. Letting yourself expand your consciousness is a beautiful thing, but remember that we must keep our footing in reality in order to make those dreams come true. Manifestation and law of attraction works by visualization and alignment, it’s true. But only if we are putting in the necessary work. So get to work on your dreams this full moon. You are being supported by extra energies. It’s time to put those visualizations to work. This is a powerful full moon and you are being guided, step by step towards the outcome you want. So step, step, step!

Humility and Grace

As you find yourself moving in the right direction, don’t be surprised if the universe sends you signs of “beginner’s luck” to encourage you to keep moving forward. Stay humble with the gifts you are receiving. Accept what comes your way with grace and kindness and continue to remain open to even more. When we become too cocky or over-sure, we are emitting negative vibrations that can skew our receptive frequencies. With every sign and gift you receive this full moon, receive with the greatest humility and gratitude.

For those looking to expand upon their spirituality, source a powerful new healing technique or simply deepen and enhance the results of your meditation practice, Canada’s first ever tachyon chamber has officially opened in Toronto, Tachyon Healing Centre. Previously, if one wanted to experience the powerful benefits of tachyon, one had to visit the first chamber, which was founded in the new age dreamland of Sedona, Arizona.

So what is tachyon, exactly? Tachyon is identified as subatomic natural energy particles that move faster than the speed of light. These particles are fused with spiritual light found in dense matter, lending a balancing and healing energy unlike any other on the planet. The alchemic combination of spiritual energy combined with tachyon technology compounded via a proprietary method comprising the use and variance of different alloys, elements and crystals results in a high vibrational healing system that positively affects all who come in contact with it.

So essentially, if you are someone who benefits from healing vibrational frequencies of crystals, you are exactly the type of person who will be open to experience the benefits of tachyon.

We have visited Tachyon Healing Centre twice now and both times, the experience has been extremely different. It is absolutely impossible to predict how exactly your body and spirit will respond to this high concentration of powerful energy on any given day. Some claim to experience visions, others claim to experience deep meditative rest, while still others may encounter less than pleasant feelings immediately following their session, often referred to a spiritual detox or negative energy or blockages purging from your system.

Famed Shaman Durek is a Big Fan of Tachyon 

The proclaimed benefits of tachyon healing include aiding with stress and fatigue, detoxification, memory and concentration and deeper spiritual awareness and ascension. Sessions are offered in 30, 60 and 90 minute increments starting at $70. It is recommended to do a complete hour long session in order to gain the full benefits.

What’s noticeable about this new Toronto wellness space is that it doesn’t appear to be designed to attract Instagrammers looking to story their latest trendy wellness find. In fact, the actual chamber itself is incredibly functional, with an extremely comfortable chair, surrounded by tachyon devices. You can expect little to no pomp or circumstance at your appointment. The chamber is blatantly designed as a source, a gateway, an energy portal with no distractions or immediate calls to share on social media. You can expect the affects to resonate for up to 2 weeks after your session. It is recommended to journal your experience so that you can look back and review the shifts in your journey.

Tachyon is a powerful tool and can offer serious healing and access to deeper spiritual connectivity. In truth, the power of what can be discovered about oneself through a series of chamber sessions can not be underestimated. The Tachyon Healing Centre also offers Illumination Rods in varying sizes that can be purchased and used at home for your own meditation practice.

With an intention to bring a new healing service to the city, we are thrilled that the Tachyon Healing Centre is now open in Toronto. We recommend booking a session and will be booking more as well.

New Moon: August 30 – September 1st

Moon Cycle: August 30 – September 27  (Full Moon September 14-17)

Key Words: make it happen, excitement, refresh, next steps, energy, new ideas, new projects, inspiration, release the old, embrace the new, action, motivation.

While the new moon in Virgo is one of the most exciting times for those who are looking for a refreshing new start, it can come to us with a touch of melancholy. Yes, summer is over and what a summer it has been. The sun put many aspects of our lives into the spotlight, and for some of us, the glare was a bit too harsh. It’s possible that this summer revealed to you areas of your life that are seriously just no longer serving you anymore. Certain things that we have aligned our personal identities with for years (relationships, jobs, people, roles, Instagram accounts) could have started to feel like inauthentic representations of a new you. There is NO better time than a Virgo new moon to honour that internal change, let go of what is truly and deeply no longer serving you and plant the seeds for a new beginning.

Mars, Venus and Mercury, Oh My!

While all new moons are excellent times for new beginnings, the August 30th new moon falls in close proximity to Mars, Venus and Mercury, each of which will be add a bit of their special and unique magic to the manifestation process. With Mars in our corner, a planet of strong action, we will be motivated to push something new off the ground and get started on a new project or a new life direction. Let the energies of Mars carry you over your fears and into the next phase.

But remember, Mars can be a touch temperamental, so check yourself before you wreck yourself, aka, don’t get TOO impulsive. While we are being provided the energies we need to take the next step, don’t confuse taking action with impulse. Luckily the loving energy of Mercury will be on the sidelines to lend some grounding vibrations, helping to ensure we don’t get too carried away when it comes to assessing risks against positive next steps. Mercury will also lend some clarity to any situations that may have been feeling a little murky in our lives. But we will only be able to access this clarity if we stop and listen.

And whenever Venus is around, so is love. Venus will be in our corner this new moon to lend a healthy dose of love where needed; be it in our relationships or in our attitudes towards our selves. Set new intentions lovingly.

You’ve Been Here Before

But this time, you are more prepared and have a greater vision of where you want to be. As visions and desires for a new life experience have started to transpire for you this summer, you may have felt a tendency to be pulled towards old patterns of resistance. Fears and anxieties surrounding the unknown can have paralyzing affects, especially when we assess where they are coming from. Are your current fears valid or are they remnants of past experiences in your life (or a past life) when you may have encountered a challenging time? Is there any way you can swap those anxieties for excitement? Remember, you deserve good things to happen to you, so don’t let old fears pull you out of alignment.

Put Your Goals Out There

As mentioned above, you may have found this summer that there are some areas in your life that are simply no longer serving you, or require a serious refresh. There is no better time than the Virgo new moon to take the steps towards a new beginning as the energies of manifestation are high. Set aside some time this new moon to put down your goals on paper, on Pinterest, on a vision board, anything that inspires you. Just make sure your goals find a physical place outside of your body so that you can come back to them over the course of this moon cycle and next few months. Be ambitious! Nothing is out of the realm of possibility. Make this the new moon that was the start of the beginning of something beautiful.

Full Moon: August 15-18

Keywords: Fiery love, relationships, passion, tension, opportunity for servitude, community, emotional conflict, creativity, financial focus, patience, understanding

Is There Such a Thing as Too Grounded? 

Sometimes. While being grounded is typically a good thing, oftentimes we can find ourselves so fully rooted in the cause and circumstances of our time here on earth that we forget to actually enjoy the beauty that truly is life! Life in all its glory includes the ups, the downs, trials and tribulations and the way we deal with challenging people and circumstances. The astrological and moon cycles of this summer have truly challenged us reflect upon who we are,  our purpose, our relationships and our place on earth. While it is wonderful to lend time to contemplation here and again, it can become all consuming when we allow ourselves to get distracted with situations, people and things that simply will not matter in a year from now. As humans, we can become so deeply rooted in the earth’s comings and goings that we forget to enjoy the lives we have created for ourselves.

During this beautiful full moon in Aquarius, we are invited to get out of our own heads for a bit and take a deep dive into the glorious unknown.

Heal and Serve 

There is truly a healer within all of us. Aquarius is an air sign, and carries the traits of a humanitarian. This full moon, the energies of Aquarius encourage us to tap into our giving sides and observe those around us in our immediate groups or communities who could use extra support. By removing the focus from our own needs and spending our energy on serving others, we will automatically develop rich karmic connections this full moon that will bring great gifts in the future. So put aside some time over the next few days to see where you can offer support and love to someone or a cause close to your heart. Remember though, in order to heal others, you must ensure that your own cup is full. So take time to fill your own cup this full moon by giving energy to what lifts your spirits.

This Sex is On Fire 

As this full moon is opposite the planet Venus, our love lives and relationships may be brought to the forefront. This particular planetary placement lends possibility to potential tension in matters of the heart. As such, it is important to be practice patience in your relationships if you see matters start to get off track. You may find you are longing for fulfillment and attachment in love and as such, a perceived lack in this area can potentially send some in the direction of immediate gratification in the form of overspending, eating or drinking. If you find your heart is longing to expend love and you feel you have no one to spread that too, see above. Extend the love to yourself or embrace serving your community in a productive and kind way.

You’re Already Rich

While financial matters may also be brought to the forefront this full moon, we will do well to remind ourselves of our present riches. Practicing gratitude for our blessings this full moon will offer rewards tenfold. Stepping into an abundance mindset will work towards manifesting riches beyond our dreams.

Above All, Patience

During the full moon in Aquarius, we may find ourselves still in the middle of where we were and where we want to go. Patience, reflection and gratitude are our best friends. Practicing self-love and spending time showing your loved ones how you care will go a long way. Don’t look too far ahead. Take a swim and enjoy the pleasant, gentle movement of the stream of life.

New Moon: July 31st – August 3rd

Moon Cycle: July 31st – August 29th (Full Moon August 15th – 18th)

Key Words: ignite, power, play, celebration, settle, next steps, courage, self-knowledge, self-love, relationship breakthroughs

Where the watery feels of Cancer season allowed our deepest intuitive emotions to swim up to the surface, the new moon in Leo offers a welcoming new perspective of our lives, situations and relationships. The emotions and flashes of intuition and deep rooted insight that may have caused you to feel a bit ungrounded or shaky last month are finally starting to get a grip on themselves for lack of a better phrase. Further too, the challenges that we confronted during a pretty intense Mercury Retrograde come to end and we welcome a more stabilized energy into our lives.

Strength and Fire

The courageous energy of Leo steps to the forefront now and is ready to take those emotions from last month and put them into active use. How can we take what we learned about ourselves and others last month and use the data to better the next phases of our journey? And how can we leverage the powerful, brave and strong energy of the lion to help us achieve our goals as well? Reflect upon all the times that you have conscientiously played down your talents and your own personal strengths. What has been causing you to play small when you know you are deserving of big things and great rewards? Investing time in self-love and gratitude during this new moon in Leo will not only help to remind you that you are truly a magnificent person who completely deserves the things that you want, but entering the new moon with a gratitude and abundance mindset will make sure that the powerful fire of the sun will entwine with the dark promises of an unseen moon to set a powerful stage of opportunity to accomplish everything you truly desire.

The Sun Shines on Your Seat of Power

Ultimately, the new moon in Leo sets an optimistic tone, one where really anything can happen if we truly focus our energy time and good will. This is an excellent new moon for those looking to tap into their creative and entrepreneur-like energies, as Leo lends confidence and a burst of energy to all of our tasks. That said, you are more likely to succeed if your goals truly align with your heart’s mission. Those who set intentions based on integrity as opposed to simple financial gains without any true causes associated with them could find the universe conspiring to lend you a bit more of a hand this month. While there is nothing wrong with desiring increased financial abundance, remember to get to the root of why you are calling this in; do you crave stability and peace of mind or do you want a new car? Both are fine intentions to have, but, as always, it is important to be mindful of what we want and why.

Sing and Dance

Finally, the new moon in Leo invites us to celebrate. Last month was a bit more serious and August brings with it the fire, fun, and deep passions of summer. Get out, sweat, sing, celebrate, dance, embrace life with a strong gusto. The joy you call in this moon cycle will reverberate and keep you warm into fall.

Full Moon: July 16 – 19

Key Words: Eclipse, release, reset, intense emotions, feminist energy, acknowledgement of our needs, clearing baggage and old thought patterns, intuition, authority, seat of power

July’s full moon aligns with a lunar eclipse, working to amplify the potency of the energies around us. It’s like a regular full moon only stronger and more intense. If you are feeling a bit sluggish, heady, unsettled, hungry, creative, jumpy and are having difficulty focusing, you are experiencing the effects of the moon and the eclipse. Don’t fight it. Acknowledge what is happening on a physical level so that you can embrace the opportunities for growth and empowerment that are happening on a deeper level.

In fact, your emotions and physical reactions in general may have been more intense since the beginning of July with the new moon, which started with a solar eclipse and took us right into Mercury Retrograde. Sensations of feeling scattered and ungrounded are normal, as well as frustrations with human-made products and processes such as technology and transportation.

Expect to feel the reverberations of this astrological activity. The best way to deal with it is to understand what is happening and leveraging it to your advantage.

The Potential For Power Struggles

Have you been confronted with power struggles these past 6 months or so? With the Lunar Eclipse in close conjunction with the planet Pluto, there is an opportunity that the struggles we have been having within our various relationships may come to a head. In fact, expect confrontation, causing uncomfortable situations with less than desirable outcomes. And these power struggles may not only be with others. The astrological activities have our fight or flight reactions cued and our egos are working in overdrive, so it isn’t uncommon if you have been facing off with yourself lately either. You could be reverting to habits and self-destructive thoughts.

Ride the wave of your emotions, that are likely to be more sensitive this full moon. Practice mindfulness in your reactions to others and frustrating situations as well as in your reaction to yourself. Be kind to yourself. Don’t get mad if an action has not resulted in the desired outcome. Don’t start kicking yourself for missing a work out or a high pressure deadline. This full moon brings with it an excellent opportunity to release old imbalances and thought patterns. If you look hard enough, you might find that the battles you have been fighting with others or your ego the past six months are actually only hurting you. Is it worth it to hang on to bad energy?

But Take That Personal Power Back!

While we should work to avoid unnecessary and unproductive power struggles with others, this is an excellent full moon for taking back our personal power in whatever method best serves you. Part of taking back our personal power means letting go of people, situations, thought processes and bad habits that simply do no serve. When we no longer allow external forces to cause tension within our souls, we are on our way to reclaiming our personal power that may have been too caught up in our egos, ultimately holding us back from our proper purposes and full potentials.

The Ultimate Release and Reset

As the moon will be physically eclipsed, we on earth will go dark. During this darkness, we are called to release old ideas and behaviours and rebirth ourselves with a promising reset. This is actually an incredibly exciting opportunity to reset our paths and re-align ourselves with new goals, new possibilities and embark on a journey that feeds our souls deeper than before.

This Is A Turning Point, A True Opportunity

July’s full moon is truly a magical one. That said, it is also one in which we are called to be present and focused on ourselves rather than peering too much into the future. The potential for growth by shedding the past is so potent at the moment. It is important we remain grounded in our feelings and take the time to acknowledge and recognized anything you want to leave behind, so that you can make space for the new and exciting things that making their way to you.
