Happy New Moon Valentine’s Day!

Happy New Moon Valentine’s Day!
 
The timing couldn’t be more perfect, spending it than on the back end of a new moon phase.
 
new moon always brings a time of new beginnings. It’s a period when the sky is completely black, with the exception of little sparkles of light in the form of stars.
 
It’s the point in every month when the moon takes a retreat and begins to grow again, redoubling her light and reflecting new creative energy on all worldly things. It marks an ideal time for connecting with our inner selves and our heart’s desire. By looking for the “light” and knowing that it’s there, somewhere, waiting to be discovered – we can reach a place where our personal reflection begins to shed its own light.
 
What wants to emerge from within you? What wants to be created outside of you?
 
 
It sounds like a perfect message for Valentine’s Day, don’t you think?

Finding Light in the Darkness

Like the moon, we all go through phases in our lives. We have ups and downs, we go forward and backward – and sometimes we seem to circle back around. We may hide behind the clouds or peek from beneath the clouds. But in the midst of what can feel like a blackout, when we are open to making a connection with our creative voice, we can get to a point where we’re able to beam with full light

During a new moon phase, the sky is completely black, with the exception of little sparkles of light in the form of stars. It’s the point in every month when the moon takes a retreat and begins to grow again, redoubling her light and reflecting new creative energy on all worldly things.

For creative souls with a desire to live more authentically, this phase represents a time for our own retreat and withdrawal from the outside world. During the darkness, it’s an opportunity to reflect on who we are – underneath the layers of life. It’s a time to turn within and write about our inner thoughts and feelings.
