Happy Full Moon!

“The July Full Moon falls on the 8th/9th in the earthy and practical sign of Capricorn. This Full Moon energy is extremely intense, but will be guiding all of us to keep on climbing.
July’s Full Moon is going to be activating the energy of transformation, which means that you are going to be feeling the intense desire to change things in your life.
If there is something you need the motivation to do, or if there is something you have been going after for a while, this Full Moon may just give you the boost you have been looking for.
This is the perfect time to think about launching projects, getting in front of the right clients or investors, or going after your dreams and goals.
July’s Full Moon is definitely one of the most intense of the year, however it will give all of us the opportunity to make quick and potent changes in our lives.
This Full Moon will definitely be calling on us to rip off a few bandaids so we can keep climbing and keep on moving up higher.
We all have our mountain to climb, and this lunar cycle will give us the flexibility and nimbleness we all need to make it to the top.”

Happy Full Moon!
“The June Full Moon falls on the 9th in the fire sign of Sagittarius, bringing intensity, transformation and optimism.
Sagittarius energy is wise and expansive. Whenever the Full Moon is in Sagittarius it amplifies our thoughts and feelings and brings more information to the surface. After this Full Moon, there is going to be a lot more clarity about what changes or adjustments need to be made and consequently there will be a peace that will follow.
2017 is a year of new beginnings and as we reach the midway point of the year, things are going to be speeding up to help us get started on this new chapter of our lives.
Because Saturn is involved in this Full Moon, there is also going to be a need for us to really understand the karmic lessons at play so we can move on and move forward.
Whatever stirs for you around this Full Moon, know that it is part of your karmic journey and part of what your soul has come here to learn.
While the June Full Moon will be guiding us to shift and transform so we can start a new beginning, it will also be filling our lives with positive, expansive and optimistic energy.
The June Full Moon is potent, yet loving and will be there to guide you through the next few weeks so you can clear the past and welcome in a bright new future.
The trick with navigating this Full Moon is to focus on finding the joy and keeping and open mind. The more you can view things from an optimistic and open point of view, the easier it is going to be to understand what you have come to learn.
While life is about learning and evolving it is also about finding the joy, as the poet Hafiz says- “stay close to anything that makes you glad you are alive.”

“Nature loves courage. You make the commitment and nature will respond to that commitment by removing impossible obstacles. Dream the impossible dream and the world will not grind you under, it will lift you up. This is the trick. This is what all these teachers and philosophers who really counted, who really touched the alchemical gold, this is what they understood. This is the shamanic dance in the waterfall. This is how magic is done. By hurling yourself into the abyss and discovering it’s a feather bed.” ~Terence McKenna

Happy New Moon!

“This New Moon will show us ways to be efficient as we reform what we need to, as we discover elements of the new life that began to open several weeks ago. Since the Solar Eclipse in Pisces “the race has begun,” and there’s no time for hesitancy or unnecessary considerations. Do what needs to be done quickly and efficiently, and let the ghosts of the past flow down the time stream. Forgive much, let go of much, give away all you no longer need, and await the revelation to come.
Because of our reflections and rewinds during the Venus retrograde period from early March to now, we’re already reprogramming our subconscious minds regarding how old relationships liberated us, or freed us from responsibilities we no longer needed. The recent Mercury retrograde helped us look back to see what we had buried that opened our present life, and we now have had ample opportunities to re-shape our minds in forms of receptivity so that we could fulfill some promise awakened in the Summer of 2016.
We can now make rapid progress in many areas; the trick is to see what gardens you can tend that promise the best harvest, while joining with others to overcome any lack of potency in action. Those who are inspired can reclaim an opportunity they thought was lost, and the coming weeks promise more “spiritual linkage through emotional stress” as well as blessings after the death of useless things. A new day is dawning and this dawn will last a few months, so be awake and alert to expanding your heart, your Light, your Fire, and your inspiration.
What are you dedicated to? The old life has died, even if there are echoes of memories to be cleaned up, cleaned out, and blessed that come forth occasionally. The new day has in fact already dawned, and a new way of life has been revealed to each of us. The chaotic past is now rapidly moving down the timestream, so face forward, as there are new opportunities as well as old promises to be redeemed. Be the Light of your most genuine and enjoyable self, and say goodbye to the past that’s already gone.”

Sorry to hear Chris Cornell has exited the scene :( Much Love to you Brother wherever you are… I truly enjoyed your contribution to this life. Say hello to Heaven!

“Please, mother of mercy
Take me from this place
and the long winded curses
I keep here in my head
Words never listen
and teachers, oh, they never learn
but I’m warm from the candle
though I feel too cold to burn
He came from an island
and he died from the street
and he hurt so bad like a soul breaking
but he never said nothing to me
So say hello to heaven, heaven, heaven…
So say hello to heaven, heaven, heaven…”
“For imagination sets the goal picture which our automatic mechanism works on. We act, or fail to act, not because of will, as is so commonly believed, but because of imagination.” ~Maxwell Maltz

Happy Full Moon!

“Full Moon in Scorpio is that one time in the year when the Moon reflects back to us in full glory our deepest, feminine water power.
Water is the element most impressionable, most reflective, most emotional, most empathetic, most patient…
With uniquely having three totems, the Scorpion, the Eagle, and the Phoenix, you have a choice as to how you will express your emotional power outwardly.
Will you sting self and others, will you fly above the daily pettiness and observe from your lofty perch utilizing perfect force and timing, or will you conquer personal obstacles by rising from your own ashes and being spectacularly, almost miraculously reborn?
When the power of alchemical Scorpio shines down upon us, we create at heroic levels and are impassioned to achieve what we desire.
Time to sweep the carcasses of the past out, free the magnificent phoenix within, and begin to tell a new story that is our life reborn. The truth and the releasing of that old, deep well of feeling will set your wisdom free.”
Thank you to the awesome Street Poet #WRDSMTH for this beautiful reminder :)

Love the artists @sel_dog and @beautifyearth for making my hometown of Santa Monica more beautiful by painting this awesome mural :)
