(trigger warning) Your horse can be your greatest teacher... If you have the courage to let him be I had a *really* intense experience a couple of years ag...o... And it turned out to be a life changing lesson for me I was working with Willie, a severely traumatized mustang with a tendency to move *into* pressure in an attempt to escape it I was trying to back him out of a trailer... And he wouldn’t budge. He even began to push into me, and I was pinned into the corner of the trailer I was able to get out... And noticed that I felt anger. No... Rage. I decided it was best to remove myself from the situation, and went into the house in a huff At first I resisted my trigger... then I opened myself up to exploring it. Memories surfaced of past traumas where I had not been able to set a boundary to protect myself in the most intimate way I can think of: when I was sexually assaulted at 15. By calling the memory forward & diving into it with courage rather than stuffing it away... I could shine light on the shadow & take away its power from subconsciously ruling my reactions That day, Willie called forth my shadow so I was able to look at it. It was the beginning of a journey that may never fully end, but it was a start I learned just how much of my situation was a result of me being unable to set boundaries with others. Saying no to an overwhelming amount of opportunities felt impossible At the time, I was having serious panic attacks from feeling out of control of my own life Thanks to Willie calling attention to this deep wound, I began learning how to set boundaries and say no to people. Horses are so genius at showing us our shadows... The parts of ourselves that we need to look at Unfortunately, when we lack the bravery to dive inwards and look at them, we continue to project our frustrations on the horse. He bears the brunt of our pain & struggle. Horses have carried so much more than the physical weight of the human being on their backfor so many years. It’s time we release them of that burden, and thank them for guiding us to an awareness of the parts of ourselves we’ve been hiding See more

On November 14th/15th, 2020, we have a New Moon in Scorpio~~ GOOD NEWS: This is one of the most auspicious New Moons of the year because it makes favorable aspe...cts with Jupiter, Pluto, and Neptune. This New Moon is also a Super Moon and it is at 23 Scorpio. Unlike the previous New Moon which was very challenging (it was exactly square Saturn) the New Moon in Scorpio doesn’t have any negative aspects. What a relief! The New Moon in Scorpio is compassionate, supportive, and will give us the chance to regroup and rebound. To understand how the New Moon influences us, we not only look at the direct aspects the New Moon makes with other planets, but also at the ruler, or rulers of the New Moon. The rulers of the New Moon in Scorpio are Mars, the traditional ruler, and Pluto, the modern ruler. Mars Goes Direct, Jupiter Is Conjunct Pluto. And it is VERY interesting what each of these two planets does at the time of this new New Moon. Mars turns direct on November 13th, 2 days before the New Moon. This change in direction is very important. Mars has been retrograde since forever (more exactly, from September 9th, 2020) and when Mars finally goes direct, things WILL get unstuck. Plans WILL change. Outcomes WILL be nothing like what we expected them to be. The modern ruler of the New Moon, Pluto, is conjunct Jupiter. The Jupiter-Pluto conjunction occurs only once every 13 years, and on November 12th, 2020 we had the final conjunction of the cycle. This is another major milestone. Mars direct and Jupiter conjunct Pluto are extremely important transits which suggest that the upcoming Lunar Cycle (November 15th December 13th) is super significant and will bring us events that will influence our lives profoundly. Let’s remind ourselves that the main purpose of a New Moon is to teach us about one of the 12 signs of the zodiac. This New Moon is in Scorpio, so this is that time of the year when all of us get to experience the energy of Scorpio. Scorpio Still Waters~ Scorpio is a water fixed sign. Water is fluid by definition NOT fixed. Water flows, joins other streams, and seeks unity. Scorpio’s still waters are different, however. Since Scorpio is a fixed sign, Scorpio’s waters are lakes, ponds, aquariums and icebergs. What’s beautiful about lakes and still waters is that they are more at one with their surroundings they have a lot less change with longer life-cycles, than, for example, a waterfall, or a fast running river. But still, there’s a lot going on beneath the surface of still waters! Every little thing that is done does not go unnoticed and has consequences. If you’re in a lake, it’s not that you can just jump ships and leave everything behind. You continue living in that enclosed space, which you’ll eventually get to know better and better. Within the frame of the lake, Scorpio’s focus goes deeper, and deeper. With Scorpio, no stone is left unturned. Scorpio gets to the bottom of things. Scorpio is the opposite of Taurus. If Taurus is what we achieve as the result of our own efforts (that’s why Taurus is connected to money and finances), Scorpio is what we achieve with the help of others. Taurus is an Earth, practical sign what you see is what you get. Scorpio is a water, emotional sign that focuses on what’s not obvious yet, is vitally important. Scorpio brings clarity and finds hidden connections that no one else can see. Scorpio doesn’t shy away from problems. Scorpio doesn’t hide things under the carpet. Scorpio confronts them. The result? Unparalleled depth, clarity, strength and resilience. Together with Pisces, Scorpio is the most healing sign of the zodiac. Scorpio’s waters are clean, healing and nourishing because when we do confront our dark side and make peace with ourselves, the result is deep and profound healing. At the New Moon in Scorpio, we too, can get a glimpse of this energy. Here are some keywords for the New Moon in Scorpio: ~Healing by exposing the truth ~Reconciliation ~Empathy and emotional depth ~Learning to trust and share what’s mine with others ~Clarity and laser-like focus Now I know what I want ~Strength and resilience What hasn’t killed me had made me stronger The New Moon in Scorpio will influence you more strongly if you have planets or angles in Scorpio. Even if you don’t have planets in Scorpio, the New Moon will still influence you because it will transit a particular house of your natal chart.~~ https://astrobutterfly.com///new-moon-in-scorpio-healing/

Own it~ Own the fact that you are different. Own that you are a deep feeler and thinker. Own that you’re tuned into a different frequency. Own the fact that you... sense things others don’t. Own the fact that you want to talk about angels, energy, miracles and spirituality. Own that you’re done having meaningless conversations. Own that you’re done holding yourself back. Own that you crave freedom to feel the now. It’s ok that your family don’t get you. It’s ok that you’re friends don’t join you. It’s ok that the world judges you. It’s ok that you want to dance barefoot upon the earth and endlessly gaze at the stars. It’s ok that you cry over sunsets and chase moonbeams. It’s wonderful in fact. It’s beautiful. You have come a long way to be who you are. So own it. Own all of it. Love all of you. The world needs you to be exactly as you are. You hold the balance in this crazy world.~ ~Eryka Stanton

I hope you’re all doing ok.

You have the power to see things from a higher perspective

When life doesn't go the way we planned. When our dreams don't seem to be going anywhere. When our sense of normal gets snatched away. May we remember and hold tightly to this truth: God makes a way where there is no way.
