Springtime is still here!!! In the northern hemisphere, we are invited to enjoy this invigorating, flowery season. A time of rebirth, regeneration, and new beginnings.
Are you taking the time to actively breathe in this colorful, pioneering energy?
This Full Moon is at 19 degrees Libra, at 7:55 am Pacific DaylightTime
On Moonday morning, my sweet friend Tracy and I had the most wonderful opportunity to celebrate the coming together of these two luminaries, the Aries fiery Sun and the diplomatic Libra Moon.
Tracy was able to help me reconcile these two opposing energies by describing more spiritual ways of dealing with personal frustrations that may in time lead to anger and aggressive behaviors. My Venus friend helped me breathe in the sweet energy of the goddess that brought us together into this harmonius friendship. We actively emPower each other in ways that may benefit as many people us we can possibly include in our Piscean imagination.
And speaking of friendship, I will soon start including all my dear friends because, for me personally, the best way of living life is through close encounters of the third kind since unfortunately, we live far from each other and we utilize our trained intuitive third eye to 'feel' each other's energies. In this particular way, we are more ready to transmute low energy feelings by coming closer together, the affectionate Venus style, instead of falling apart, releasing undesired aggressive tendencies at the gym, Mars' style.
Both ways are valid methods of dealing with different types of personal conflicts, I am in no way favoring one or the other, I am placing emphasis on the fact that every Full Moon we are presented with another opportunity to reconcile polarities. During this particular lunar phase, the emphasis is either on 'me' or on 'us' and the way to go is to allow time to spend alone and to also separate time to enjoy being together. War is not the answer, neither is prolonging or avoiding resolving relationship conflicts. So there are techniques we can implement in order to improve our interpersonal communication skills like, practicing non-violent communication, actively listening, in a non-judgemental way, to what the other person wants to express. By working with the light, we may be able to take situations not so personally, allowing the heavy energy to freely flow back into creative raw material.
Mars & Venus are interacting together learning the art of living graciously allowing the physical body to move, stepping in, stepping back this human dance in which we all participate on a daily basis. We are always presented with the invitation to make conscious choices in life.
Am I acting or re-acting to situations? Am I being assertive or am I unconsciously aggressive?
"Am I able to lovingly assert mySelf?"
Paramahansa Yogananda says: "I am actively calm and calmly active."
At the end of my yoga class my teacher, Tara, invited all of us to integrate the feeling of peace in our bodies while resting in corpse pose. I realized at that moment that I could allow my old self to peacefully die while being in this pose since we then moved to the 'embryo' pose, an opportunity to become ready to be reborn.
Being able to reconcile these powerful opposing energies is a lifetime work. This Full Moon is
only a reminder to actively choose to come from an open receptive heart. Enjoy being:
"(I am ) an active participant who co-operates and co-creates life into being."
You are encouraged to write your own affirmations, just remind yourself that expressing gratitude is the most powerful one. And speaking of gratitude, I am soooo grateful to all of you whose encouraging e-mail comments made my heart experience joy and soul-ful love.
