Full Worm Moon

Full Worm Moon

By Tara Sutphen

The Full Worm Moon and Lunar Eclipse (Native American) will culminate on March 13, 2025, at 11:55 PM PT / 2:55 AM ET (Farmers Almanac). We have a Total Lunar Eclipse. When we have an eclipse, it’s time to change or let go of something holding us back. Take time to meditate on what you’d like unblocked or cleaned up in your life as it brings something exciting or illuminating to each of us.

The moon will be cast in a reddish copper hue and it will be observable from the Earth’s Western Hemisphere. It will be visible in North America, South America, Europe, Asia, Africa, the Atlantic Ocean and the Arctic Ocean.

The Worm Moon wants us to concentrate on strong passions. This refers to profound feelings, enthusiasm, or desires. That energy is part of the life-force, the breath and blood of our existence. We need to feel supported when we connect to the life force and God’s light.

To regain passion we can connect to our values, explore new and exciting events and things, and surround ourselves with wise and helpful people. It is to find the pathway to practicing mindfulness and easy attainment.

Recreate Passion for Life:

1. Regain Perspective

2. Rekindle Friendships

3. Risk your Feelings

4. Create Atmosphere

5. Communicate

6. Listen

7. Don’t Dwell on the Past

8. Share

9. Don’t be harsh

10. Nurture

1. Attention: when you have started a habit or new pattern

2. Admit: what do you need to change

3. Communicate: what you need, to make a difference

4. Select: goals and needs

The aspects of every full moon gently guide us toward connecting to our deepest selves. We’re looking into the meaning of life and a deeper resonance of thought. You are tuning in instead of tuning out. You are allowing what energies are to leave your life, so you fully live the greatest and best you can. You are finally ready, you want to handle living on Earth instead of Earth handling you.

Journal Questions:

Write a paragraph on how you can improve your personal habits…

How do you proceed with your ability to create, are you waiting around for it or making it happen?

Love

Career

Job

Health

Relationships

Friendships

Happiness

How do you proceed with your short-term goals

Spiritually

Physically

—— Life isn’t a full stream of happy emotions and no problems but it is about creating the life we want to live. Sometimes it is a slow and steady road…

—“If there is no passion in your life, then have you really lived? Find your passion, whatever it may be. Become it, and let it become you and you will find great things happen for you, to you, and because of you.” -Anonymous

Imbolc 2025

Happy Imbolc Blessings ~ by Tara Sutphen

Imbolc “IM-bulk” is a pagan holiday with many names. One of the Sabbats, it is an ancient festival generally celebrated on January 31, February 1, or February 2. It is also known as Candlemas, Brighid (“breed/bride”), and Oimelc (“EE-mulk”) which means ewe’s milk. It is the time of year halfway between December 21, the Winter Solstice (Yule), and March 21, the spring Equinox (Ostara). Imbolc is in the middle of winter but is the optimism of spring. The Egyptians and the Romans also celebrated this time, as it was the earth goddess giving birth to the Sun God. The time to ready seeds for the planting of food. A time of planning weddings, love, and romance. Days are getting longer and hope is renewed. The celebration is to light candles. The night of white candles turns the darkness into light.

Yule, The Winter Solstice

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.

You’ve been wanting to express yourself. Make sure you enunciate yourself in the right way. You’ve been searching for the right communication style for a while. You were taught to be polite and the world became anxious and many people used words to thrash and trash others. And now, you don’t always speak your truth. When you decide to start speaking clearly and concisely again, you can do so gently. Allowing truth and wisdom to come to the fore. You don’t need to put others or yourself down for that matter. You are to start being proud of yourself again. Knowing you stayed the course through thick and thin for many years. Upcoming you will feel freer in your speech. Your convictions won’t seem as tense. Life may start flowing toward an easier time, the more you can relax with your feelings and trust your journey, the better you’ll feel.

You aren’t caring about keeping up with the Jones. You want a job that makes you happy. You want a life that feels worthwhile. You want sincere relationships and friendships. You want your actions to match your words. You are going backward in your excitable character, you’re going to look for uniqueness and soundness. You’re going to create your world into being a better place, and when you make it happen your family and friends will follow your lead.

———-

The past is put to rest as you burn through any leftover frustration or self-pity. You are to recapture the essence of your soul goals. While dusting yourself off and breathing in some fresh air, you are now rebalancing your intensity to create new passion, new undertakings, new plans, new hopes, and new dreams.  Taking life seriously again for inner satiation. Looking at the redeeming qualities of everyone and everything. You no longer need to process the whys; after all, you’re now getting ready to leave unfinished business and whatever else you accrued… behind.

The first step is your mind in synch with your conversations that match your actions. When you succeed in aligning this, you will notice your life works in miraculous ways.

—— “There are only two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle.” ― Albert Einstein

Full Beaver Moon

The Full Beaver Moon (Native American) at 24* Taurus will culminate, November 15, 2024 1:28pm PST/4:28pm EST (Farmers Almanac). Did you know that when you are looking at the moon, you are looking at it as it was 1.28 seconds ago because of the distance by light speed.

This Full Beaver Moon is about keeping your balance and staying steady. No risks at this time, you are building something in your life and if you are slow and steady you will win the race. If you speed past at this time, you will miss something of importance. 

It’s a very intense time. 

How is it we can help ourselves. We work on our health and well-being first and foremost. And how to do it is… Taking charge of your proactive movement. It’s not talking about it, it’s not thinking good thoughts, wisdom only comes when we move our intentions into action. It’s about getting a foothold on forward progress. As we advance we then easily boost ourselves and then facilitate our family and friends. 

You are given advice and wise choices everyday. Its important to listen now. What are you listening to is everything around you and your thoughts and reactions.

Here’s some tips on how to make clear decisions. 

  1. Use your Emotions – How do you Feel:
  • What do you want your health to be
  • What do you want your career to be
  • How do you want to make money
  • How much money do you want
  • How hard are you willing to work
  • How much time are you willing to study
  • How much time are you willing to work
  • Are you working smarter not harder
  • Where do you want to live
  • What kind of house do you want
  • Where are your opportunities
  • What are you afraid of

  • Do you make conscious choices to clear your confusion – how.   

B. Use your Intellect – How do you reason:

  • What do you want your health to be
  • What do you want your career to be
  • How do you want to make money

Reasoning gives you a chance to be more objective about yourself and your needs over the emotional side of your nature.

  • Be willing to compromise if you live with others
  • No rigidity

D. Stop Arguing

  • Use your core values
  • Take steps to achieve in health, well-being, career, well-being, relationships, love, positive direction
  • Use your education
  • Use your creativity
  • Use your sound plans
  • Create strength of body

Forward movement, we have been lead toward knowledge. The internet alone is full of useful information. Decipher, connect, or act accordingly on clueful information.

Everyone knows what’s wrong to do…bad habits, addictions, procrastination or rebelliousness. Bad tempers or isolation, release misfortune and start by being resourceful, capable and enterprising. Learning to listen again. Drinking plenty of water, and meditate. Resonating with the earth and expecting the very best instead of the very worst.

Who Inspires you:

(5 people and why)

_____Encouragement is useful. Reassuring another person of the effort they make, not only makes them feel validated but it also makes you feel satisfied. No matter who thinks they act alone on the planet is not telling the truth to themselves. The farmer created food for you to eat and there were contractors to build your house. Let alone all the workers creating electronic equipment, entertainment devices, and cookware. Sewing you clothes and making your soaps, creating medicines and vitamins. We aren’t lone wolves, no matter what. Activate your abilities and strong skills, you have the ability to create the life you long for…

——“Real, constructive mental power lies in the creative thought that shapes your destiny, and your hour-by-hour mental conduct produces power for change in your life. Develop a train of thought on which to ride. The nobility of your life as well as your happiness depends upon the direction in which that train of thought is going.” – Laurence J. Peter

Full Hunter’s Moon

By Tara Sutphen

The Full Hunter’s Moon (Native American) at 24* Aries culminating October 17, 2024 4:27AM pacific/ 7:27AM eastern. (Farmers Almanac)  

The nights are getting darker now. Rest and Rejuvenate, Dream and Create, Plan and Recharge. This Moon is assertive to aggressive in its urgency for change. Move toward recharging your career goals. You are to settle into making money and creating wellness and harmony for yourself and your family. You are to make improvements in your life. You are not being “asked.” The universe is apparent in its message. Aries is about movement toward a goal. Not thinking about it or even having a sentiment attached to making a decision, it’s clear, dust yourself off and be fresh, be strong, be forthright, and be as clear as you can be. Just leave behind some of the things that are no longer working out for you. Wellness is a key message now. Gain your strength for the winter. 

Move toward advancement. Sit with your eyes closed and take a couple deep breaths, remove all pressure, heaviness and worries away.

  1. Relax your mind – Learn to Meditate
  2. Feel Your Body – Be in Gratitude of your Temple
  3. Open the Senses – Breathe in “Life”
  4. Don’t Make too many Decisions – But be decisive 
  5. Take a break every few hours – Revive

We can fail many times, but we’ll find what we are looking for eventually. If it’s people, places or things, we are to remain hopeful, polite and adventurous. It’s our birthright to survive and thrive in this world and allows us to become the very best we can be.

—“Progress lies not in enhancing what is, but in advancing towards what will be.”

– Khalil Gibran, Lebanese writer, poet and artist
