Full Snow Moon on this Day of Love

Full Snow Moon on this Day of Love Dearest Sisters ~ Welcome to the heart-warming Full Snow Moon in Leo on this Day of Love. Yum! As we journey into our celebration of Valentine’s Day, my prayer is that we each remember the Beloved within. May we give ourselves the love that we most wish to receive.  May we fill so completely with the love of the Goddess that we then overflow in abundant love offerings to our community and to all beings. Sisters, this is the work – to love ourselves unconditionally no matter what, and let that ripple out into the world. This past New Moon, the Fire Goddess […]

Full Snow Moon in Leo

Full Snow Moon in Leo

Full Snow Moon in Leo Welcome to the heart-warming Full Snow Moon in Leo.  Obviously most of us are still undercovers with seemingly infinite layers of white surrounding us.  Brigid is still beneath the surface reaching her tiny fingers forth… But for at least this moment, our Lion-Hearted companion will warm us from the inside out bringing warmth to hearts and hearth. We have crossed the threshold of the New Year once again as the Wood Horse gallops in and the fire replaces the water at the center of the altar… but … it’s not so clear.  This new year is marked by an intense shift of energies and a significant […]

Full Wolf Moon – Dancing with the Serpent

Full Wolf Moon - Dancing with the Serpent

Full Wolf Moon – Dancing with the Serpent Dearest Sisters ~ The Full Wolf Moon greets us with her soft, supple glow. She radiates her light through the darkness, reflecting a clear path for us on Mother Earth below. Let’s welcome Her in… If we open to Her, she will reveal to us all that we need to see and feel. For the past couple of weeks I have journeyed deeply into the mysteries of my soul. I have experienced the multidimensional nature of my being, and all beings. I have been turned inside out, upside down, and spun like crazy in the force of the wind. The Goddess is speaking […]

Sacred Water below and Fire Pit above

Sacred Water below and Fire Pit above

Sacred Water below and Fire Pit above Greetings from the Footbaths of San Augustin, Colombia as we move into Cancer Full Moon!  Sacred Water below and Fire Pit above.  The stones continue to speak… Convening with our Ancestors and the stories their bones have yet to tell… I tried to visit the birthplace of the Magdalena River on horseback and a storm veered us away… yet instead I was gifted the opportunity to see a gravesite on a mountain above the River herself where an Indigenous Queen’s monument stands.  I can’t upload photos now, suffice it to say they are coming… but it was a rare enough adventure I can only […]

New Moon Magic on New Year’s!

New Moon Magic on New Year's!

New Moon Magic on New Year’s Dear Sisters ~ Greetings from Brazil! As we head into the celebration of the New Year, the presence of Yemanja (the Great Mother Goddess) is palpable. Tonight the masses will gather at the edge of the ocean, all wearing white in honor of peace and renewal, and pay homage to the Queen of the Sea. They offer Her white roses and carnations, glasses of champagne, and delicious foods including coconut pudding (all Her favorite things). As the clock strikes midnight, they send little boats laden with presents into the sea for Yemanja. They wade into the ocean and jump seven waves, each time making a […]

Full Cold Moon + Winter Solstice - December 2013

Full Cold Moon + Winter Solstice – December 2013 COMPLETING THE DESCENT & REBIRTH OF THE LIGHT The Dark Mother is very present right now on this Full Cold Moon approaching Winter Solstice here in the North. Can you feel Her? She is Lilith, beautiful Goddess of feminine empowerment, liberation, and sexuality — greatly misunderstood and feared today by the collective consciousness of thousands of years of of patriarchal culture. Legend tell us that Lilith was Adam’s first wife, made from the same Earth as his equal. When she absolutely refused to subordinate herself sexually and in all other ways to Adam, she was demonized.  Mythologically represented as an irresistibly seductive […]

My Personal Descent

My Personal Descent

My Personal Descent I have been on the road for over two months… and as my moon blood flows in the midst of a snowstorm, as the moon draws full, and the sacred night of Winter Solstice approaches… silence is deeply meaningful to me right now.  Even a NYer’s version of silence with traffic and television. Quietude, solitude, these things are DEEPLY valued. I am in LOVE with LIFE. In this moment of reflection of this sacred time of year, I am in LOVE with everything around me, everything within me, everything I am seeing, learning, hearing, tasting, touching and experiencing.  While my experience of the Descent this year has been […]
