4/08/24 Hello Goddesses, This moon is a doozy. There will be an increased sense of restlessness, impatience and desire for change in a big way. It is important to harness this energy and channel it into a positive direction. Mercury in Aries goes retrograde from April 1st through the 25th of April then we have the upcoming eclipse and the Jupiter/Uranus aspect will be a forever game changer. The retrograde will slow down the movement creating delays and changes especially from the 1st to the 25th (this means pause). Move forward with caution. If you do not let this time paralyze you, you will find what you need to embrace change. When Mercury goes direct on the 25th we will all be able to move forward. Use this retrograde wisely as a time to slow down and reflect, to catch up on task and tap into your inner vision. Seek your biggest dreams, pause and think on aligning with your biggest goals and desires. Keep your impulses in, check before you leap into action. This total eclipse on April 8th and all solar eclipses is associated with new beginnings, shifting circumstances and recalibration of personal and collective priorities. Aries brings so much to the table. Leadership, courage, pioneering spirit and more noble aspects. Energetically it brings action, passion, enthusiasm and a very deep desire for a new beginning. There is also a confrontational aspect to it so channel this energy wisely. The north node influence in the astrological heavens are amplifying everything adding intensity and a sense of destiny to the events and personal surroundings at this time. Big...

2024 Welcome all my beautiful goddesses, What to look forward to in 2024. Through out the first few months of 2024 we can expect many confrontations, whether it be outmoded ideas or dreams of our own. Lets stay focused on where we are going and how to direct the change that we need for the entire collective. This is not a me time, it is a we time. Leave the pettiness of being right or wrong. It all just ends up in a circle. Our own circle. Agree to disagree and move on, enough push back. January 1st 2024 has a grand trine in Earth signs between the sun, moon and Jupiter. Which reminds us to remain grounded and seek clarity with all the facts. Needs for freedom, impatience and anxiety starts off our year. This is a year to move forward with all projects. Time to start birthing and creating ideas of your dreams to make them real. Review your spiritual visions, tune up your intuition “trust and believe” are you using your wisdom? Review what you already know and expand it. This is a time for humanity to come together as never before with sharing skills, collective thinking, and community. Ask yourself if you are in the right group or community? Spread your ideas to a global thought, do your part even in a small way to uplift mankind. The spring total solar eclipse will reveal what has been deeply hidden on many levels. Forgive yourself for your past and set yourself free. Now is the time for you to find wholeness. Let yourself shine, walk...

WELCOME TO A NEW ERA – 2023 Get ready for a year of cosmic challenges across the board. 2023 Overview This year is about seeking the silver lining emerging from shadows with moon light in our eyes and roses in our hands, looking for the good that still dwells among us. The heart that beats beneath the skin of the world. This is the year of the Rabbit 2023 new moon and sun conjunction in Aquarius so the Chinese calendar resets at this time. The rabbit is a symbol of longevity imaged as an alchemist and shaman who lives on the moon with the moon Goddess change. The rabbit is about peace calmness and healing after the dynamic tiger year. The rabbit is the water element. Keenly perceptive and can sense danger in any situation. So be aware and conscious around your presence. Feelings and emotions are high intuitive, empathic and kind. So this is a yin year – feminine and soft. This year the planets ask us to engage in dynamic social change and to create and nurture new cycles, webs and cohorts explore humbly before jumping into action. Structure and responsible Saturn starts the year in Aquarius and enters Pisces on 3/07/23.

At last week’s moon ceremony we made Native American Tobacco Prayer Ties. I wanted to share with you how and when to make these prayer ties, as they are very powerful and send our dreams, wishes and desires up to Spirit. Because of this, they should only be used on special occasions. For example, last week we used them on a new moon eclipse to manifest our dreams. You could try making them with manifestation prayers on the new moon in Capricorn on December 21, the winter solstice. Prayer ties can also be used to honor our family lineage and those who have passed. Try making one on Halloween or All Soul’s Day this weekend. Instead of using the prayer ties to manifest, you would use them to honor those special people from the past that are a part of your lineage by letting them know they are thought about, loved and a big part of who you are today. Show them that they are respected and revered in your life. Watch the following video to see how to make the Native American Tobacco Prayer Ties. If you have any questions or thoughts, please let us know in the comments!...

1. Foundation The first thing any aspiring healer will want to do is get a fantastic and solid foundation. Foundation is everything and it allows us the space to grow. Part of maintaining a strong foundation is partaking as the patient in healing work. As healers, we must always, always, always purge ourselves and heal ourselves. 2. Protection The next thing to remember is protection–create a good space for yourself and for the people you bring into your home or clinic. As time passes and you advance in healing work, do not forget to regularly cleanse your products, the stones, feathers and tools of your trade. Part of protecting yourself and your space requires healers to know where any new person being sent to them comes from. Before this person comes through your door you’ll want to identify if they are a referral from a current client or if they are coming via another means. Try to find out something about new clients before you invite them into your space. 3. Intent without Expectations Finally, healers must realize that they can only control their intent and not the outcome (for a variety of reasons). Your primary focus should be to have good intent without creating any expectations. You were called to this practice because you care about others so of course you would like to heal everyone that comes to you. But not everyone is truly ready to heal. Some people believe, on some level, that it is best for them to hold on to whatever is hurting them because it serves them in some way. For those people,...

This Wednesday is our monthly new moon ceremony. This is a special moon, as most are, as the new moon is in Libra and it is all about love. Libra is ruled by Venus. Venus is about the love you deserve to attract, the one spirit chooses for us (Thy will not my will!). Libra is about love of self as well as others. So how do you perceive love? Please let us know in the comments! Blessings to all, Joy ...
