  • How Meaningful Are Your Relationships?

    What in my life needs balancing, both internally and externally? What relationships do I have that need more attention, perhaps even healing? Are there relationships that have run their course? Am I ready to let go in order to move on? Where could I use more support, both personally and professionally? We’re moving into another full moon phase, this one in the astrological sign of Libra.   The Libra Full Moon brings light to the connections in our lives and sparks a strong desire for balance, communication, and beauty – with a big emphasis on the quality of our relationships, both inner and outer. As humans, we are tribal people. There is power in numbers, particularly when the numbers involve a group of like-minded souls who are supportive and…

  • Full Moon Dreaming

    For many centuries, the moon has inspired thousands of beautiful stories, songs, dances, paintings, and poems. Through its many phases, she has served as a muse in a variety of ways. What is it about the moon that stirs our innermost thoughts and inspires our deepest creativity? What is it about her that unleashes the magic of our dreams? The full moon phase brings a time of high energy and great sensitivity. It’s also a period of extraordinary creativity. Dreams (both day and night) are at their height during this phase with the potential to activate possibilities that you never thought were possible.  As you take in the radiant light of tonight’s full moon, notice what comes to mind.  How does this connect with your creative voice? And what within…

  • The Magic of a Full Moon Phase

    One of the gifts that the full moon gives us is an overwhelming desire to come alive. Whether that’s bringing a passion front and center or finally making the decision to take a giant leap forward in a new direction that is fully aligned with our creative purpose. Imagine driving through a fast food window and placing an order – only this time the menu lists the one thing that you’ve been contemplating for quite some time. Perhaps it’s that life-changing book you’ve been working on for eons, but keep finding yourself facing one creative block after another. Or maybe it’s that passion-filled business that you’ve been wanting to start, but you haven’t yet gotten the courage to just go for it. Or it could…

  • Taking Care of Yourself This Holiday Season

    While the holiday season can be quite joyous, it can also bring up a lot of stress and overwhelm – and for some, it can stir up feelings of pain or loneliness. According to the American Institute of Stress, more than 110 million Americans take medication for stress-related causes each week. And when the holidays come along, people already predisposed to stress can find themselves feeling blue and more anxious than usual. Even those who don’t ordinarily feel stressed under the pressure of events or deadlines, still find that the holiday season can play havoc on day-to-day routines. So what can we do? “Plan for stress,” say the experts – just like you plan ahead for any calamity you want to avoid. The more prepared…

  • The Ripple Effect of Gratitude

    As we prepare for the Thanksgiving holiday here in the United States – and move into another full moon phase, I can’t help but think of the impact that gratitude has when we embrace it wholeheartedly. Can you imagine a world where everyone showed gratitude? If someone did something kind for you, you’d probably give them a warm smile and say thank you. And if you were having a bad day, someone else might take time out of his or her life to comfort you, making you feel better. It’s these acts of kindness that prompt people to show their gratitude by doing something similar for someone else. Like a skipping stone in a pond, acts of gratitude have the potential to create a ripple…
