September’s Lunar Phases and Transits

The New Moon on September 7th in Virgo

This new moon on the 7th is Virgo (conjunct Mars & opposite Neptune) This will be a time to purify, cleanse & calm. One of the challenges we have been facing for some time now…

Simplicity will support the nervous system… slowing down.

It’s a perfect time for candle meditation, watching a flame flicker while deepening the breath to reflect empathically on how fragile we are yet how powerful at once (a candle flame can be the seed for great transformation ~ fire).

Empowered by Mars… this is time to aim high… set your gaze upon the stars and make drastic, determination driven decisions.

Balanced by Neptune… it’s a changing lunar phase that gives birth to transcendence… rising above in heart felt perspective and compassion.

So… this will be a time to create a new soul based vision for health, healing & systematic shifting – a new way of doing, being & experiencing life.

Times like these… we face so much rapid change that it can be a great distraction from the slow and steady poise of spiritual balance.

Let this remind us to return home to our source of inspiration. Let this shine a light on the truth that love is the driving force behind all that holds power. Ground yourself in love!

As a Cancer Moon & Venus person, as well as Feng Shui Practitioner… My personally favourite way to “ground” is by tending to the “home”.

Whatever this may mean for you… Lifting the energy of the home tends to be a wonderful way to influence our own energy.

As we enter the month of the Yin fire Rooster on the 7th of September also, we can experience heightened “sensitivities” – associated with these ‘characters’. During Metal animal (Rooster) months, it’s the best time to “cut” back the overgrowth.

Clear out clutter, space clear, use rituals, aromatherapy, music (vibrational / fire medicine / modalities). Let go and breathe through any grief (metal emotions). The ultimate way to do this is to simply “allow” those feelings to move through you and just let yourself experience and witness them.

I find these are the moments of deep, fulfilling self recognition, honour and compassion that we gain so much assurance and strength from!

This month is a 7 in Flying Star Feng Shui. This means the 7 is our central number/energy for the month beginning on the 7th. What this means in Chinese metaphysics (Traditional Feng Shui) is…

There can be incredible chatter, cluttering our mind. So it becomes important now to balance this with meditation in order to maintain peaceful presence and perspective. It’s a month of “scandals” coming to surface. I’m sure this does not surprise most of us!

7 also relates to the “mouth”… so we may (let us pray), have some further clarity around what has been “masked” for so long now (pun intended). Being the Rooster month, which is the metal element… this month will have a significant impact on the “lung” organ.

Breathing becomes of vital importance as the ‘virus’ and it’s global management, has brought so much anxiety, no matter which way you see it! Be it from the virus or the response and it’s huge global destruction. It’s vital now that we BREATHE and keep moving!

This may mean switching off and tuning out in order to light up the soul and tune into the inner wisdom that only shines when we have the insight to do so!

So, this month… clear your surroundings, mentally, emotionally and physically. Protect your space in all domains and dimensions. It’s time to connect spiritually and turn down the volume on the external distractions, designed to direct your behaviour.

For only YOU know what is true and RIGHT for you! Do not let the prejudice or judgment of ANYONE distract you from your higher calling and purpose.

Be selective in how you spend your energy and time and give back to the body that you call home. Be present. Practice Yoga and restore the strength needed to emerge from one of the most challenging times we have experienced in generations!

The Full Moon on September 21st in Pisces

The Full Moon in Pisces brings us the gift of spiritual insight. A time to let go…dive deep into the realm of the soul where truth lies and illusion dissipates.

A wise person once said to me that the physical/tangible realm is the impermanent…the actual illusion, whereas the spiritual realm is the “reality”… the permanent.

I carry that notion with me still. I share this now in the hope that it serves to remind us all of the fact that no matter what physical ‘conditions’, perceived (deceived) ‘restrictions’ are currently placed upon us now… THEY are impermanent and quite literally the real illusion.

I hope that this full moon in Pisces will help us all LET GO of the illusions of “trickery” that are designed to spellbind us by the power hungry shadows in existence. This full moon urges us to “let go” of the shackles of our mind… to see deeper and realise our true freedoms!

While there may be physical limitations that pose great threat to our wellbeing in this time… we MUST remember our creative power to connect and become ‘one’ with our comm-unity right now! For our power lies in numbers! Our power is potent when we come together!

Let this be a reminder that though there truly is a “Great Reset” planned, an Agenda that is right there before our eyes, should we open them… We will rise above! THEY won’t win… because our power lies in awakening the sleeping giant! Our loved ones and community IS the sleeping giant.

And by being “awake”… we have the power to shed light upon the lives of those around us… in time. It may not be now… But the time will come. When the truth is visible and impossible to ignore. Take comfort in this. The time is coming and this full moon in Pisces, has great power to “free” us from illusion!
