• 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.

  • Taking Care of Yourself This Holiday Season

  • Dancing with the Contrast of Darkness and Light

    Our lunar goddess is rich with wisdom. Through her phases, she teaches us how to move from darkness into light with the gracefulness of a ballroom dance. We step in, we step out – and we circle back around again. And with each step of this dance, we gain a new experience – a new awareness. What do we receive in darkness that we may not see in the light? And how does the light magnify what’s tucked away in darkness? This is where the gift of contrast comes in – and how the wisdom of the moon serves as a wonderful teacher. Imagine looking up at the night sky during a first quarter lunar phase – and seeing a moon that’s half lit. It…
