Full Fish Moon

By Tara Sutphen

The Full Fish Moon (Colonial) at 26* Virgo will culminate March 16, 2014 10:08pm PST/1:08pm EST (Farmers Almanac).

This Full Fish Moon in Virgo is an elucidated gift. We have reward emissions with this full moon instead of only pointing out our human stumbling. As the moon approaches fullness we are to be in a cosmic adjustment mode. Breathe in deeply, be playful, turn up your music, and sing along. We are to turn up our “joie de vivre”. Simple pleasures are one of the keys to release stress. Liberate worries! Make yourself laugh.

Think of all the joy we lose when trapped by a swirling mind. It’s time to dance and sing and let loose. Realistically you might not be able to cast all your problems to the wind, but stop over analyzing. We are not to render ourselves mindless. We are not to numb ourselves with intoxicants or adverse behavior. We can be overwrought by demands. You may be distressed by society or others expectations, which can lead to depression. Don’t allow the feeling of helplessness. We have control of our thoughts and reactions. There is a time and a place for problems to be rectified, and waiting until the right and necessary time can serve you. Hasty remarks or actions lead to problems and ill-will. Our parents, teachers and authority figures instilled in us mixed messages. Our society would have us think our lives are about material goods. Be wise in the decisions regarding you and yours, on earth we are only here to thrive. We must remind ourselves to think clearly. You entered life to live…really live. You are on the earth to create good decisions, opportunity in actions and meaningful feelings. It’s about confidence. It’s about sincerity. It’s about holding strong to love. It’s about building a foundation to comfort the spirit, intellect, emotions and physical well-being. Simply make a commitment at reducing your anxiety levels and learning to love your life again. It starts with only a choice…

Be insightful. Be the person you long to be. Bring joy and light into your life. Others can’t bring you happiness, all decisions are yours to make. Don’t allow for disappointment. Rediscover your potentials. Gratefulness goes a long way to creating harmony. An effortless hi to yourself in the mirror might put you on the right track for the day. Of course you have to say hi with sincerity. This is an exercise and should be done easily without a negative response. We see uptight often, so seek to be conscious and motivated. Not everyone in your sphere will follow your lead into harmony. How to mend our earthly woes is “trust and joy”, these are all the tools needed.

“The secret of Happiness is Freedom, and the secret of Freedom, Courage.”~Thucydides (Ancient Greek Historian & Author, 460-404bc)

Meditation By Tara Sutphen

“Zing”  — a Magic entering the Mind … Ideas form into thoughts and daydreams.

Muses spark the creative process and stimulate one’s endeavors into fitting ventures. Overcome your obstructions, whether lacking confidence or intangible concepts. Sometimes we can get lost in indefinable and elusive development. In Greek Mythology the Muses gave inspiration to everyone and granted wishes. They have encouraged artists since antiquity, acknowledged for their importance in resourceful innovation and formation.

In this meditation each Muse will grant you her gift, guiding you toward greater resourcefulness and motivation. The Muses inspire inception to the completion of an urge, starting projects from outset to finish. Search for variety of the inner you and your talents, bring your childhood desires into reality. Have you been struggling and need extra support? Let the Muses encourage you in the direction of a greater fate. 30 Minutes.

Full Valentines ♥ Moon

By Tara Sutphen

The Full Valentines ♥ Moon (World Love) at 26* Leo will culminate February 14, 2014 3:53pm PST/6:53pm EST (Farmers Almanac).

This Full Valentines ♥ Moon in Leo is under very potent aspects and wants us to re-awaken our life-force, get that blood pulsing through our veins, get some zip into our zap to present us with a total makeover. We can especially restructure our creativity and romances, stimulating ingenuity by getting underway at having some fun, amusing ourselves, sparking up conversations, giving advice, laughing loudly and being courageous. It’s time to generate selfless deeds. It can be a philanthropic or leisure pursuit. Or we might like to take up painting, writing, learning something new or bringing back an old hobby. If we are not actively seeking a romance, we can begin the change of self-renovation. We want to feel vivacious, and also believe we are needed and wanted. We are being reminded not to tolerate numbness or a shallow sensation of monotony day in and day out. Shake up your life, move into the “amazing sector”.

Relationships undergo scrutiny. We have to begin to know what is right for us and what is wrong. And a lot of times, it’s the people we choose to be around. If you are in a relationship, your feet are standing exactly where they should be. Now what are the inner workings and what may be amiss or accurate in the current scenario. Are you devoted and if not, why not. There is one to 150 reasons why you are with your romantic partner. But it is up to you to make your life work. Are you wanting to sorce to maintain harmony and understanding in an established union or working at calling-in a relationship. Remember to clear your mind and create room in your heart for your chosen partner or an available love upcoming. Staying true to oneself while gently compromising is one of the easiest ways to maintain support. We aren’t always aware of what others need, no matter how close we are to them. Relationships are a balancing act.

Many people pretend instead of just being honest. There are so many sacrifices people make, sometimes they are co-dependent or impatient for the real thing. There are people who say the nicest things and mean them and then there are empty promises, actions speak louder than words. The potential for great love is there for everyone. We may have many chances or very few, events will guide us. Whenever we recognize our heart we will find our way. Being attentive, attractive, vulnerable, intimate, and willing to be hurt will reveal love. Sometimes the hardest part is our unwillingness to fail. But we must try and try again. Romantic bliss is practiced and then made, pheromones and hormones can carry us for awhile, but real romance is an ongoing act of caring and making effort. Sing, dance, perform and play, communicate with those you’re not usually chatty with. Have you forgotten to have fun. Be animated, breathe deeply, be in step and move forward. Being alive is a magnificent gift…what are you waiting for…….the time is now. Waiting for the right time, there is no such thing.

Love. What is it… We can intellectually talk about love, but emotionally and physically we get ourselves mixed up in all sorts of circumstances. Who is to say what is right and what is wrong, other than if you don’t ask you don’t get, and if you don’t try, you don’t get. And if you want to be loved, you have to put out the effort. The world can be a lonely place. And there isn’t too much time, less then we really think there is…we should genuinely appreciate the people we choose to share ourselves with. We are here to find happiness, every situation will not make us happy, but with some care and devotion, we won’t veer off course too badly. And to create an awesome and fruitful life is up to us. No matter if you have a valentine or not — Happy Valentine’s Day – it is your heart that beats, Love is You.

“And forget not that the earth delights to feel your bare feet and the winds long to play with your hair.” ~Kahlil Gibran

Full Wolf Moon

By Tara Sutphen

The Full Wolf Moon (Native American) at 25* Cancer will culminate January 15, 2014 8:52pm PST/11:52pm EST (Farmers Almanac).

This Full Wolf Moon wants us to awaken to be active on what we’ve been communicating. It’s time to perform and not be stuck in a stalemate of unconstructive fear. Feel the ground beneath your feet, the earth feels good. Really take a moment to feel the ground. If you’ve been making plans, keep moving forward with grace and ease. We sometimes think it’s a hard road, but undeniably we can get in our own way. We have to generate our authenticity and wellbeing. We live among family and friends to bestow kindness and decency. After all they give us insight and inspiration with all the good and bad things they say and do. Think of all the negative responses that have given you ideas on what you want and why you want it. It’s carved out your individuality. Of course if brow beating goes on too long it can start to erode anyone’s character, as our hearts long for unconditional support and people who are genuine. It is always a sign to turn away where conditions are placed upon us, we are to go through the passage of change and again be in search of earth’s fortune. We exert effort and work efficiently where we are supported.

Are you living a real life yet or does it feel like a make-believe one. What choices are you making that you question. Did you really want another job than the one you have. Did you want another lover than the one you have. Did you want to live in another place than the place you live. Do you want to change your body. Do you want to change your friends. Do you want to pick up a hobby. Did you want to do something worthwhile and you’re stuck. What do you want? There should be no guilt or self-reproach. If you have a list of New Year’s Resolutions, it’s time to look at the list again and no more procrastination. You wrote down what you clearly want and it is the time to make a step toward those goals.

Everyone is taking notice this month, curiosity is in the air. You are illuminated and seen more visibly, and as with everyone you want to be encouraged. Clear the air – talk – don’t expect to be right but converse. Consciously act confident, “faking it until you make it” as you constructively and conversationally rearrange your words and deeds. Instead of being assertive, it’s about give and take…especially within the family and friend sphere. Within sentimentality lies progress, make the extra effort. Let the upsets and problems go to the wayside. Keep saying and doing good things, we will not live forever no matter if we think science will find a cure for death someday…someday will not be soon enough. We risk moving into an unknown future to create the life we want to live. As we grope in the dark, here are some “guidelines”: When we give, it will not be received in the same manner as we will perceive, stay open. Make the right choices, not the wrong ones. Say special nice-isms, be the fun person, achieve above and beyond but don’t forget to dance and play. No matter how world-weary you are…keep evolving into unfamiliar territory, mistakes cannot be redone. All that stumbling on your path were stepping stones. And as you continue on your path, every once in awhile – stop for a moment, expand your arms and your heart, breathe in and anticipate amazement and miracles…

Standing Before
The Moon Ritual
Meditation & Sleep Programming

Although you would ideally do this meditation outTrack beneath the full moon, you can also experience it by imagining the moon and four directions as you are surrounded with magical energy … a rainbow of light. In the Goddess’ name, you open to the light. You can actually stand up and raise your palms to the sky or imagine this process of being energized and rejuvenated. Facing North you ask for solutions to your problems and experience many blessings. Facing East you seek solutions and prosperity while trusting yourself to make the right choices. Following many blessings, you turn to the South and ask for increased self-esteem and harmonious relationships with the people in your life. After the blessings, you turn to the West to face your destiny and ultimate potentials. Open your mind and release your courage. The ritual ends with the moon as your guiding light on the shadowed path. It illuminates your dreams as you walk steadfast and proceed on your earthly journey with an open heart. Track 2: A beautiful sleep programming version of the ritual. Listen as your cross over into sleep and explore the four directions into your dreams.

Winter Solstice & Yule

By Tara Sutphen

Dec 21: The Winter Solstice is a celebration of the heart, vessel of our dreams. Through the darkest time on the planet we are to find solace once again, returning to our inner resting place. Gallantly gazing upon our life’s daily uncertainty and unknowing future. May the earth fold us in comfort away from any harshness. As the light dims we are to harmonize and begin to sincerely replenish our hearts and minds. The pagans called this holiday Yule, where the people of Europe and Scandinavia made festive. It is not considered religious. The pagans were naturalists, such as the Native Americans and other indigenous communities around the world. They followed the course of the sun, the moon and cycles of the seasons for planting food and generally planning survival strategy. As winter comes we recognize our need to rest our minds, hearts and bodies while warming at the hearth. And as we come back out of the darkest day-night of the year and begin to gain more minutes of sunlight and replenishment each day. We linger for a glimmer of light to awaken, reconnecting our spark to life, to the sun and the conviviality of our own beating heart.

Full Cold Moon

By Tara Sutphen

The Full Cold Moon (Native American) at 25* Gemini will culminate December 17, 2013 1:28am PST/4:28am EST (Farmers Almanac).

This Full Cold Moon is illuminating on how well we communicate with each other. We have an awful lot of gadgets with the internet and smart phones to frustrate or entertain us these days. Social media may be sidetracking us away from face to face communication and connection. We need to remember how to mingle and associate our minds with others. There are many lonely people in a majority of billions among us. Reach out with our hearts to those we love. And try and understand those we pass casually throughout our day. It takes building blocks and many steps to create meaningful relationships. Thoughtfulness is a virtue. It only takes a sentence to spark hope in someone who feels lost. Sometimes you may not feel friendly but if you give yourself a little push and make the effort, the rewards can be phenomenal.

We can make a lot of judgments, and we assess people rapidly on whether they could be a potential friend or colleague. We can generally tell in a matter of moments whether we enjoy or feel irritated by certain individuals. It usually takes some time to know which individuals we might not be compatible. And when we are not attuned, does that mean we don’t try and be respectful and open-minded. Another’s strengths may be our perfect business partner or wise counsel. We all know how to talk, but do we know how to listen. Do you say what you mean and mean what you say. Are you truthful with others, and speak without being hurtful or boastful. You can say plain truth and gain easy honesty. It’s not about being right, wrong, smarter or better, we want to come together in harmonious acceptance. Camaraderie is a learned behavior, when we are pleasant with every one, life is easier and less stressful. Not all and sundry are congruent, many people you will have to move away from to remain peaceful and compassionate. Gently turn away and rekindle what is good and healthy. A random kind word goes a long way with 95% of people. And those we already connect well, this is the moon to soak up the meeting of minds.

Happy Beautiful Holidays

 

Full Beaver Moon

By Tara Sutphen

The Full Beaver Moon (Native American) at 25*Taurus will culminate November 17, 2013 7:16am PST/10:16am EST (Farmers Almanac).

This Beaver Full Moon is bringing us in touch with why we came to earth to experience being human. We’re either trying to wrap our heads around why we are here or we shake our heads and can’t find a good reason why. But we do know, we have the wants and desires. And maybe we’d like to gain insight into why we’ve come into contact with the people, places and things that matter to us. We want to live more, not less. We want to touch and encounter more of what our lives are to be. And we just want…more…

     Two years ago the Beaver moon fell on 11.11.11 — it was an occasion of stepping into the benefits of the world. A gateway of stimulus, and fortunate epoch of beneficence, insight and magnetism, it’s as though the heavens know when we need an extra dose of optimism and therefore decides it’s time to illuminate the dark states we often find ourselves in. In 2012 the Beaver Moon reminded us to communicate with each other, it was an Annular Eclipse, needing to change or let go of something holding us back. In 2013 this Beaver Moon is bringing us another intense message of awakening. Out of 360*, this is one of the most powerful placements. We are energetic beings and when we use this time to align our mind, heart, and soul to connect with the gravitational pull and the magnificence of life, it can help release our blocks. Set free all those issues that hold us in a stagnant place of disquiet, nonsense, unhappiness, or dissatisfaction. This Full Moon energy at this intensity level will never be at this aspect again in this life…If you were to sorce on one moon in your lifetime. This one is the One!

    If your weather doesn’t allow you to see the moon, you know it is full in the world…set your feet on the ground, and sorce and pray. If you have been suffering with your health or any problem, set the situation free. And with your new liberation, you initiate to greater possibilities. Trust…

Journal Questions:

There is a certain ethic or lifestyle you want to live up to… (write full page in journal at least)

• Are you conditional (things have to be a certain way)
  
• Are you unconditional (easy flow)
  
• What kind of manners do you have
  
• Do you notice others manners
  
• Are you creative, explain if so or why not
  
• Do you have kids or want them
  
• What makes for a bad life
  
• What makes for a great life
  
• What is romance
  
• Are you romantic
  
• What can you change about yourself to be more romantic
  
• What do you want to change about yourself to create a great life
  
• Do you make enough money
  
• How can you make more money
  
• Do you spend money on those you love
  
• Has money flowed easier in your life when you give to others
  
• Or do others take from you
  
• But where do you get back from others
  
• What can you do to bolster your self esteem
  
• What makes you happy
  

Who are you

• Spiritually
  
• Emotionally
  
• Intellectually
  
• Materially
  
• Physically
  

To gain back our verve and it’s glorious beautiful moments. Hopefully we can get out of being bored or stuck. We can gauge what kind of intensity and passion is a right attribute. We can start by accepting we belong on the earth at this time. Our self-esteem may think we don’t belong at times, but we are here. We just have to remember, when we give, we trust we will receive. Through our families, friends, work, and general day, we give to get and get to give. The easiest way to become whole within ourselves is to be unconditional. Our expectations can get in our emotional way. We innately know what is right and what is wrong…we feel it in our gut — it is universal law.

“I’ve learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.”~Maya Angelou

Full Hunters Moon

By Tara Sutphen

 

The Full Hunters Moon (Native American) at 25* Aries will culminate October 18, 2013 4:38PM PDT/ 7:38PM EDT. This Moon is accompanied by an Annular Eclipse, we will need to change or let go of something that has been holding us back, bringing something exciting or illuminating to us.

This Full Hunter’s Moon is about Graceful Movements, “We don’t always know where we are going, but we want a Beautiful Life”. Decisions on what to do, who to be with and where to go…these choices come to the fore often. We could say diversity appears every day, but there are major preferences that mold our lives, and those selections set us on a course of life-long results. Who we choose as mates, jobs, spirituality, wellness, habits, friends, moving residence – this medley sets us in a direction. The old adage “be careful what you wish for” is one to ponder. Any adversity is a sign, and it won’t be one of those times you live up to being a good parent, a good son/daughter, a good employee, a good person…which may be an array of times or every day of your life. Keep moving toward a constructive physical and mental process. We give to get, and get to give. When we share our hearts, our minds, our expertise and our goodness, we receive gifts. Rarely is every day smooth, many times we will be asked to make judgments about people or conditions; having patience, wisdom and perseverance will lead us through and back on track. We are given options, know when those harsh road signs are a set of instructions and can be actually a way out. This Full Moon is asking where you are going and why are you going there…

 

Journal Questions:

1. Are you seeing a self-made movie

Isn’t it time you live the life you long to live. Change back to your ideals and your verve, love those you love, and make decisions that will matter…..

“We need to teach the next generation of children from Day One that they are responsible for their lives. Mankind’s greatest gift, also its greatest curse, is that we have free choice. We can make our choices built from love or from fear.”~ Elisabeth Kubler-Ross (Swiss-American psychiatrist and author )
