Happy Winter Solstice friends a day that is both equal parts day and light and the darkest day of the year. From here on out the days will continue to grow longer until our beautiful Summer Solstice 6 months from now. We take the time to honour the cycle of Mother Nature. Death, and rebirth we must honour. As well as the solstice, we are also in the midst of an extremely rare Astrological aspect. The Great Conjunction. A conjunction between Saturn and Jupiter at 0 degre...es. One that hasn’t happened for 400+ years. And before that 400 years ago. The last time this happened the Renaissance had just begun and ushered in a completely new way of socio, economic, creative way of life. A new beginning and age is upon us. 400 years before that it was what we know now as the Christmas Star the star that lead the three wise men to find a little baby born in a manger known as Jesus. If you felt a shift today, you are not the only one. A sense of energy and renewed optimism. Life will never be the same from what have known. And it’s no coincidence that this has happened after the year that we have had. While the astrology doesn’t really start to improve until mid next year, this is the beginning of the end of some badddddd astrology that has taken us on a wild ride this year.

Happy Beltane friends halfway between the Spring Equinox and Summer Solstice. A time to celebrate spring, rebirth and fertility. Babies being born all around and I love it. Make sure to get outside in nature today. Bring some flowers into your life. Bake bread or honey cake. Set up your altar. Wear a flower crown. And my most favourite, have a giant bonfire

The last Full Moon of the year Known as a Cold Moon for the obvious reasons, it is COLD, this time of year. In the water sign of Cancer It will be culminating and growing until 9:30pm tonight. Do you feel the energy growing? Cancers are sensitive, emotional, intuitive, homebodies. We will certainly be feeling sentimental and emotional over the next few days. And as we move into the new year I’m sure tears will be shed. Do not hold back. Tears are cleansing. And we mus...t cleanse ourselves in order to move forward into 2021. Full Moons are always periods of time where emotions are heightened and energy is electric. They are periods of endings and new beginnings. A time to shed what is no longer serving you and let go of what weighs you down. Even more perfect with it being at the end of this dumpster fire of a year. A perfect time to perform a full Moon ritual for releasing. I know what I’m releasing. Do you know what you must release in order to move forward? Do not let the baggage of this year, or years past, hold you back. The astrology does not improve into 2021. I will not lie. We still have some hardships and obstacles to overcome. Mid 2021 things will start to progress and move forward again. And by the end of next year, we will be past the majority of these major worldwide hardships. But that doesn’t mean you can’t go into the new year with a grateful and peaceful heart. And if you really can’t do that, at least give yourself time and space to feel what you’re feeling. Release the fears and doubts. Cry it out. Happy Full Moon friends See more
