Are You Ready for a Creative New Beginning?

We’re moving into a new moon phase tomorrow – which might stir a strong desire for creative change or a new creative direction. It may even bring an awareness that NOW is the time to seed what might be necessary for a personal or professional transformation.

This particular new moon highlights the Leo qualities of self-expression, creativity, courage, confidence, and authentic visibility – while shining a light on certain life themes involving creative projects, fun and pleasure, children, and the inner child.

As we settle into the last full month of summer, you may feel a slight nudging toward something you might want to start in the fall – something that has a more joyful and playful energy to it.

It’s a good time now, in the playful season of summer, to begin to put the intention out there – to say to the universe, “Yes, I am ready for this change and I am open to approaching it from a more creative and playful direction!

Where in your life do you desire a creative new start? Where in your life do you need more courage and confidence?

This Leo New Moon challenges you to “Ask for what you want – and be prepared to get it.”

This time tomorrow, we’ll be under the influence of a full flower moon.
 
You may be sensing an “inner blooming” – like petals of a flower unfolding, with the various effects transcending into every part of your life – personally, professionally, and creatively.

It reminds me of one of my favorite quotes by well-known journal writer and novelist, Anais Nin.

Wrapping up the Year with Full Moon Dreaming

Here we are – the last full moon of 2020. 🌝
 
What gift does our lunar goddess have for us as we bring closure to a year full of surprises and disappointments, unexpected twists and mysterious turns, revelations that we didn’t see coming?
 
For many centuries, the moon has inspired thousands of beautiful stories, songs, dances, paintings, and poems. Through her many phases, she has served as a muse in a variety of ways.
 
What is it about the moon that stirs our innermost thoughts and inspires our deepest creativity?
 
What is it about her that unleashes the magic of our dreams?
 
The full moon brings a time of high energy and great sensitivity. It’s also a period of extraordinary creativity. Dreams (both day and night) are at their height during this phase – with the potential to activate possibilities that you never thought were possible.

What Are You Bringing into Light?

As we move into the winter solstice and toward the last full moon of 2020, what are you choosing to bring into light?
 
And what do you need to release – in order to make room for this light?
 
 
In the words of mystic poet Rumi, “Let the waters settle and you will see the moon and the stars mirrored in your own being.”
 
As you settle into the winter season and begin to think about what you’d like to manifest, give yourself permission to express the brightest light within you – and allow it to take you where it may.

How Can You Illuminate the World?

As we settle into the first full moon phase of the spring season, here’s a great quote to ponder – “You have to find what sparks a light in you, so that you – in your own way – can illuminate the world.”

In this time of uncertainty and unsettledness, it’s the quieter moments that are needed to reflect within ourselves a light that may be going unnoticed.

Take a moment to close your eyes, breathing fully and deeply, several times in and out. Then invite yourself into these questions. (more…)
