Full Moon Rising

It’s never easy hearing sad news, the day started that way and this was the beautiful morning view. Truthfully as I was heading off to work and glanced over, what caught my eye was the way the ice on the farm fence was glistening in the sun. It caught my eye, captured my complete attention.

It wasn’t until tonight, when I sat down, enjoying some quiet, reflecting on my day and truly being reminded of the value of time and the people in my life, when I noticed what I had captured early this morning. I didn’t initially know it. The sun and the moon.

I have recognized in myself that my energy is sensitive to the moon cycles. Actually everyone is, but everyone learns to reign this in, in their own way and time. The energy for the past week and a half almost 2 weeks has felt heavy at times. Like it is shifting, but a little stuck, almost like walking through a revolving door that’s sticking. You can push hard and squeeze out, but it’s not exactly enjoyable. It wasn’t just me feeling this. I’ve learned to sink down and into. Put the “worry” of time aside. Rather than being hung up on what time it is and I have to do this, that and the other. It’s so much more productive to be in the moment.

This evening I was prompted by my sister to check out the sun and the moon…

Standing on our deck to the left, the beautiful sunset and to the right a bright strong vibrant moon in the early night sky.

I was reminded today how incredibly precious life is. How much time matters. But more importantly quality time, BEing in the moment. Don’t live with regrets and love unconditionally. Appreciate boundaries and truly love yourself first. Allow emotions to be felt, feel them to their depths. Shine a light.

As we enter this full moon, I send you love and light. Honor yourself and how you feel. Tend to your heart just a little bit more.

I’ve got this blend in the diffuser cleansing the air of our home.

Inspired by Adam Barralet, who I had the pleasure of listening to the other evening in the Gifts of the Essential Oils Masterclass. Learning more about the emotional uses behind each of the oils. Until I receive my book, my Emotions and Essential Oils App (or book) is a FAV resource!

From the Emotions and Essential Oils Book:

• Clary Sage – Clarity and Vision
• Eucalyptus – Wellness
• White Grapefruit – Positivity and Confidence
• Myrrh – Mother Earth

This evening I plan to lay low, to sit in silence, sage myself, shower, journal, meditate and use my floral oil collection topically.
