Friday the 13^th FULL MOON

By Tara Sutphen

 

The Strawberry Full Moon (Native American) falls on Friday the 13^th at 22* Sagittarius, it will culminate June 12, 2014 9:13pm PDT/ June 13, 2014 12:13am EDT (Farmers Almanac).

 

There won’t be another Full Moon on Friday the 13^th until 2049. Here are a few fun facts of Friday the 13^th to get you in the mood that it’s a good day:

o   The US Seal has 13 stars, bars, feathers in the eagle’s tail, 13 bars in one claw, 13 olive branches in the other.

o   The Chinese, Pagans and others in ancient times marked time by the lunar cycle and calendar, thus 13 was considered a very lucky number.

o   Egyptian philosophy believes life is a mission for the eternal afterlife. This journey walks through 13 levels, the first 12 in this life, at death the 13^{th level}. The number 13 symbolizes death as glorious and attaining “real life”. But you must go through the 12 stages first.

o   Fear of Friday the 13^th is called Triskaidekaphobia.

o   The fear of Friday the 13^th started as a Norse Myth where 12 gods were having a party in Valhalla (Heaven) and capricious Loki came as the 13^th guest and arranged for Hoder the Blind to shoot Baider the Beautiful with a mistletoe tipped arrow where he died and the earth grew dark.

 

What a beautiful omen as we are at summer solstice and the sunshine is at its peak. We are to honor the light of the sun and our inner luminosity. The moon in Sagittarius asks us to take an unprejudiced look at our happiness. This moon is about racing back into the verve of life. We are to sing, dance, love with the utmost reconnection of the self. Reactivate the pulse on ‘who we really are ‘ underneath conditional programming. This is not about going hog-wild and releasing the inner-crazy, this is about coming back to the “beautiful you”.

No longer should we feel disoriented or locked in a box. There is a side to everyone’s psyche that is triggered by their personal unhappiness. We are to re-find the lost parts of our wise choices, sense of fun, and no more boredom.   Let go of stress, bad habits and negative thought patterns, and this IS clear-cut, don’t hang on to pain. It’s a time to stop any callous behavior too. You are to break free. Manage your life with gentleness. As you gain insight, your intuition leads you to stabilize your emotions and act in your best interest.

Actions speak louder than words. Stepping forward isn’t about doing what other people want you to do…it’s about you doing what you want to do. Society has some unnecessary rules, yet the universe is boundless, and the one rule is simple: “Live life in compassionate harmony”. If you don’t act in your self-interest now you will waste precious time.

 

Journal Questions:

 

Maybe if we reverse our sight we could see ourselves a little better: Visualize your self from space – close your eyes – and in your minds eye – look down and identify who you are on the earth – really click in and see……. scope in and see yourself down there in your human suit.

“Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but we rather have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.”~Aristotle (Ancient Greek Philosopher 384 BC-322 BC)

Full Flower Moon

By Tara Sutphen

 

The Full FlowerMoon (Native American) at 23* Scorpio will culminate May 14, 2014 12:18pm PDT/ 3:18pm EDT (Farmers Almanac).

 

This moon Flower moon is luminous yet not of frivolity. We are to reach a deal with our self this month, we are to look inside on how we speak to people and if we’re happy in our ways of communicating. It’s about honesty at a deeper level within you. You are born to live the life you long to live. Are you doing that or are you just messing around? You know the answer, you deeply know…

 

Are you feeling solid or stagnant, confused, shaky or content…think of this and how can you start to take steps in living genuinely. We think the world is made up of time, but by the time we make up our minds…it can be too late. The time for love can slip away, the time for money can by-pass us, the time to exercise and be well doesn’t happen…Are you concentrating on the right things? Are you sleeping while you are awake? Wake up Wake up…look deep within and regenerate your ideas, communication skills and actions. It’s your time on the planet and the earth is full of bounty and blessings and they are yours by birthright. Sorce the moon, pray and connect your feelings with your conscious acts.

 

Journal Questions:

 

Paragraph for each question.

 

What are you doing with your time

 

How are you communicating with your coworkers and your family

 

Are other’s taking from you

 

Do you pull enough of your share of responsibility

 

Are you overly responsible

 

Do you discuss what you need and why

 

Are you speaking your truth or are you fudging any sort of realness for compromising others feelings

 

 

The time to create the life you would like to live is now…daydream, night dream…make wishes. There is always hope. An idea should be your idea and then move forward, gently and caring. When you lend help and support it comes back 100 – 1000 fold. If you’ve been frustrated, sit still, breathe deep…and allow all the beauty and support to come into your life. You deserve love, security and happiness…allowing yourself to deserve. Breathe in Peace, Exhale Chaos…

 

—–“When I stand before God at the end of my life, I would hope that I would not have a single bit of talent left, and could say, “I used everything you gave me.” ~Erma Bombeck 1927-1996

Spring Equinox, Ostara, Eostre, Easter, Vernal Equinox

By Tara Sutphen

• 21st March   Spring Equinox marks the mid-point of the Waxing Year, the nights and days are balanced once again; the time when Kore, (Persephone) was believed to have returned from the Underworld where she had ruled throughout the Winter. The spark of light, born at Winter Solstice has reached maturity, and from here onwards, the days progressively grow longer than the nights. Western culture proclaims this the first day of Spring.Older traditions called the Spring Equinox, Ostara; the time of the festivals of the Grecian Goddess, Eostre, and the Germanic Ostara, both fertility Goddesses of Dawn. These influenced the naming of the modern-day Easter Holiday. New greenery bursts forth from sleeping seeds in the countryside, as metaphorically, pagans also plant their own seeds for future goals, future projects and growth at this time.

  Decorated eggs, being symbols of fertility are symbolic of Ostara. In days gone, Europeans gave gifts of decorated eggs to new brides, in the hope that they would bear many children. Similarly, bowls filled with eggs were given to farm workers by the farmer’s wife, to ensure a rich harvest. Most all cultures see the egg as a symbol of Life; the actual home of the Soul. In Russia, decorated eggs are still given as gifts to loved ones and buried in graves to ensure rebirth.

  The women gathered the eggs only from hens which were around a rooster and decorated them, allowing no one to watch them work as they transferred the goodness of the household to the designs on the eggs, thus keeping evil away. Dyes were mixed to secret family recipes and special blessings placed on each egg.

  Colors of Ostara Eggs:

• White:
  
• Purity
  
• Yellow:
  
• Wisdom, a successful Harvest, or Spirituality
  

• Green:
  
• Spring, rebirth, wealth, youth, growth, happiness
  

• Blue:
  
• Good health, clear skies
  

• Orange:
  
• Power endurance, ambition, courage
  

• Red:
  
• Happiness, hope, passion, nobility, bravery, enthusiasm, love
  

• Brown:
  
• Enrichment, good harvest, happiness
  

• Purple:
  
• Faith, trust, power
  

• Pink:
  
• Success, friendship, love
  

• Black:
  
• Remembrance
  

Lore:

• The custom of eating Hot Cross Buns also has pagan origins. The Saxons ate buns that were marked with a cross in honor of Eostre; Ancient Greeks consumed these types of buns in their celebrations of Artemis, Goddess of the hunt, and the Egyptians ate a similar cake in their worship of the Goddess Isis.
  
• There are conflicting ideas as to what the cross symbol represents. One suggestion is that it is a Christianisation of horn symbols that were stamped on cakes to represent an ox, which used to be sacrificed at the time of the Spring Equinox. Another theory relates to Moon worship; the bun representing the full Moon, and the cross, its four quarters. Christianity gave new meanings to the symbolism of the buns, saying the cross represented the Crucifixion Cross. Thus, superstitions arose crediting these buns as being charms against evil, so after Good Friday, people would save one or two of them to hang in their homes as amulets. During the festival season and indeed, for a long time afterwards, fishermen would carry these Easter buns in their boats, for protection.
  
• The Spring Equinox defines the season where Spring reaches it’s peak, with the powers of light increasing. The God of Light, (Llew), now gains victory over his twin, the God of Darkness. Llew was reborn at the Winter Solstice and is now old and strong enough to vanquish his rival twin and mate with his Mother Goddess. The great Mother Goddess, who returned to her Virgin aspect at Imbolc, welcomes the young Sun God’s attentions and conceives a child. The child will be born nine months from now, at the next Winter Solstice, when the cycle closes, only to begin anew.
  
• The Easter Bunny is another symbol which has obvious links to fertility, rebirth, and the abundance of life which is evident in Spring.
  
• Eostre was a playful Goddess whose reign over the earth began in Spring when the Sun King journeyed across the sky in his chariot, bringing the end of Winter. Eostre came down to Earth then, appearing as a beautiful maiden with a basket of bright colorful eggs. Eostre’s magical companion was a rabbit who accompanied her as she brought new life to dying plants and flowers by hiding the eggs in the fields.
