Full Sturgeon Super Moon

Full Sturgeon Super Moon

By Tara Sutphen

The Full Sturgeon Moon (Native American) at 27* Aquarius will culminate, on August 19, 2024, 11:28 AM PST/2:28 PM EST (Farmers Almanac). A super moon is only 8% bigger than normal, but when it first appears on the skyline you can see the illusion of how huge it appears!

This Full Sturgeon Moon is about being Unique. When you were a child, who did you think you wanted to be when you grew up? What profession did you want to have? Does your life look anything like you thought it would look? If it doesn’t, how would you want it to change?

Practicing an inner dialog with your younger self, allows you to progress into who you would like to become. It’s not about what happened in the past, it’s only about concentrating on the future. It’s about jumping from your childhood to a new starting point. A fresh standpoint is where you begin believing in yourself and your dreams. Visions of a potential you. You always have enough time to begin a changed aspect of yourself. Or to reach a cherished goal on your bucket list.

Reacting positively toward yourself, allows you to create situations of trust and calmness. People seldom gather their thoughts and wits in disappointment. Allow yourself to stop to listen and learn. If you have to dig deep, then start digging. Allow yourself to start dreaming of the real you. 

If we are not able to cope with daily life, we must change. You are not living an authentic life yet. We are supposed to live the life of our dreams. Let’s reprogram our minds with positive reinforcement. Learn with hypnosis, or pure willpower and make some headway. Don’t procrastinate. It’s never too late, we are to create our futures every second of our lives…

To Become Conscious:

  • Empathy: A sign of emotional intelligence is knowing how you are feeling… and being aware of how others are feeling. Everyone feels differently.
  • Adaptability: Learning to react appropriately.
  • Confidence: Being aware of your shortcomings and still acting in faith.
  • Mindfulness: Becoming aware of the Present. You have this time on the planet to be in the “NOW”. 
  • Patience: Allowing time to be your ally.
  • Kindness: No-one is perfect. Everyone needs a boost.

Steps to Making Dreams A Reality:

  • Focus
  • Intention
  • Set Goals
  • Be Inspired
  • Practice Thankfulness
  • Surround yourself with positive people
  • Inner Calmness
  • Outer Directness
  • Visualize
  • Honest Affirmations
  • Power of Your Thoughts
  • Power of Your Words
  • Power of Your Actions

_____ It’s important to set ourselves in a direction for success. The key to flourishing is honest reflection. Becoming

self-aware and waking up to our hopes allows us to focus on goals, strengths, and, positive ambition. Life is about enjoying the process of our motivation and aiming to better ourselves every day while enjoying the journey.

—-“It’s only when we truly know and understand that we have a limited time on earth—and that we have no way of knowing when our time is up—that we will begin to live each day to the fullest as if it was the only one we had.” Elisabeth Kübler-Ross

Full Beaver Moon

Full Beaver Moon

By Tara Sutphen

The Full Beaver Moon (Native American) at 4* Gemini will culminate, on November 27, 2023, at 1:16am PdT/4:16 am EdT (Farmers Almanac).

This Full Beaver Moon is about building constructive communication within your family and workspace. We are being asked to be more insightful in how we talk and listen to others. We aren’t to act lackadaisical, careless, or uncaring when we use our words. We are to speak easily, not worrying about our articulation, although manners are always helpful. This Moon is about sociability, civility, and ultimately making memories before it’s too late. You might be wasting your time, frizzling it away, and not making the wholesome connections you came to earth to make. 

You are paying attention to your soul goals, right? Let’s start with your family. Only those members who are good for you. And just make sure you are choosing family and friends who are your spiritual family. Your coworkers are to be supportive. All these people should be important enough to keep in your daily life. It’s a far-reaching component of your evolution. Awaken to what and who is around you. Taking the awkward moment and breaking the ice by asking someone close to you for their advice, or how they feel a plan you have…might be all the potency you need to gain confidence. Steps to learning to communicate are important and worthwhile.

*When meditating, remember you’re going to go past your mind and its set ideas, and proceed toward the heart, taking it deeper, releasing false sentiments, and just floating in your divinity, going deeper and deeper to your very essence. Reaching into the core of your being. Shift into knowing you will begin to float in calmness and flow freely forward into divine destiny.

——“We must be willing to get rid of

the life we’ve planned, so as to have

the life that is waiting for us.

The old skin has to be shed

before the new one can come.

If we fix on the old, we get stuck.

When we hang onto any form,

we are in danger of putrefaction.

Hell is life drying up.”
