• How Will the Full Flower Moon Inspire You?

    This week brings a very powerful full moon phase in the astrological sign of Scorpio. This is the most intense sign of the zodiac – and when it coincides with a full moon, it brings us an opportunity to break free from old patterns and begin claiming the life that we REALLY want. So be prepared for the intensity! This full moon is also known as the Full Flower Moon, inspiring an “inner blooming” that will transcend into every part of your life. This “ripple effect” has the potential to change your life in big and dramatic ways that are quite magical! It reminds me of one of my favorite quotes by well-known journal writer and novelist, Anais Nin. “And the day came when the risk…

  • The Gift of the Winter Solstice

    Welcome to the Winter Solstice! Today marks the longest night of the year as nature gives us an extended period of darkness. Mother Nature knows that a certain amount of darkness is always needed in order to see – and to truly appreciate – the “light” of possibility. On this day of the Winter Solstice, take some time to connect with your inner light – that authentic voice inside of you who has the potential to show up in a big way. How bright is your inner light? Let’s give her a name. Take a moment and close your eyes – and think about the potential of your inner light when she is shining brightly. What name captures the energy of this essence? Don’t over…

  • What Reality Are You Choosing?

    As we move toward the darkest day of the year, I’m mindful of how much our outer landscape mirrors our inner one. What we think and how we’re feeling on the inside can affect what we see on the outside. If our inner light is burning bright, it allows us to see beauty and possibility in the most dire of circumstances. And if our inner light is dim – or completely burned out, we’ll only see what feels dark and challenging around us. How bright is your inner light? Is it lighting up a path of vision and possibility? Or are you feeling uninspired – with a lack of vision and clarity for what might be coming next in your life? Wouldn’t it be nice…

  • Emerging from the Shadow

    Sometimes when we’re “stuck” – and fumbling around in the dark, tripping over our own shadow – the universe makes the movement for us. It picks us up, rattles us around – and puts us somewhere. And it’s there, in that place – where we must find a way to “bloom where planted.” It will be there, that we begin the “rooting out” process. And part of this involves rooting out those places where we know we’re living out of balance. It’s time to kick the dependencies that suck resources, and become more self-sufficient with our energy. In this week of a super full moon phase – in the astrological sign of Taurus, there’s a combining of the intense energy of a Scorpio Sun with the…

  • Dancing Between Darkness and Light

    Our lunar goddess is rich with wisdom. 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. Looking up at the night sky during a first quarter lunar phase, we see a moon that’s half lit. It serves as a reminder that there’s always more to us than what meets the eye. It sparks a strong sense of curiosity within us. When we ponder any type of change in our lives, we can choose to look at this moon phase as half light – with lots of room for possibilities and expansion. Or we can look at it as half dark – with lots of space to hide,…
