New and Full Moon Missives
On September 3rd we have a new moon in Virgo. At the new moon, the waxing crescent peaks its
head out from the darkness that shields the rest of its body—Like the Hermit from the Tarot, this small, bright crescent values solitude, its intuitive guides, and ample time for introspection. The Hermit may be reluctant in the beginning to step into the cold light of the dark half of the year, and all that it reveals. This transition should be waded through with extra gentleness—make sure to check in with your spirit, and validate whatever doubts and fears you may find there. Boundless
treasure awaits this lunation, but you'll need to brave the caves of your unconscious mind if you're seeking it. Don't fret—connect to your energetic roots, and let them lead you through their depths. There's no need for trepidation; you're safe here.
This lunation in Virgo is an especially tentative time. Virgo, the sign of order,
intricate detail, and illimitable awareness, is adept at assessing both risk and reward. This Virgo new moon asks us to assess our surroundings and boundaries before we leap into our new creative ventures, and simultaneously, assures us of the power of our own judgement and intuition. What expectations do you hold yourself accountable for? What are your limits, and what practices have you developed to ensure these limits are respected? Trust that your body knows its needs best, babe. Follow them
to their core, lean into those origins, and sit with them to cultivate understanding.
September 17th marks a lunar eclipse in Pisces. Do you hear the Moon calling? Inspiration and imagination is in the air, creating sparkly immersive waves of
expansiveness and whimsy. This Lunar Eclipse in Pisces is beckoning you to lean into your dreams and step into the version of yourself that you see in visions. Answer the call of this lunar eclipse by succumbing to your largest of dreams and believe they will come to fruition. Pisces is a siren call reminding you of the glimmers in this world. What exists in your ideal world? What makes you feel most alive? Pisces is ruled by the spiritual, inspiring Neptune; and the hopeful, ever aspirational
Jupiter. What these planets both have in common is an effervescent optimism, making this powerful lunation a magnificent time to explore your deepest desires and embody them.
Now is an invitation to open your heart wide to the beauty that exists in being human in this moment. All that has ever been has allowed for you to be here in this present
moment. When is the last time you basked in the remarkable feat of existing in the now? How are you celebrating yourself? This Lunation is a reminder to embody gratitude, and submerge in the warm waters of optimism and opportunity. You are incredible now, and will only continue to grow in even more wondrous ways.
