Full Strawberry Moon

By Tara Sutphen

 
 

The Flower Moon is at 26* Scorpio will culminate May 17, 2011 4:08pm pst/ 8:08pm est (almanac). This Full Moon is an opportunity to evaluate how you create resources through your job. Have you been effective as well as productive. Can you bring into position your values with making money, your principles may need to match your ideology. Believing in yourself and attaching importance to your career creates a valuable lifestyle. It’s easy to tolerate a passable job. Majority of people get by with not thinking life is too bad, ending up with living in places they didn’t want to be and in jobs that run them ragged, knowing if they really thought it out, they could come to a conclusion of where is it all going. When you act in self interest logically and sensibly you can move your life into what you want in every aspect. It’s not about packing your bags and immediately moving randomly without plans, it’s time to get those tactics in place and then progress.

How is clarity found – First of all, what is not working, sometimes we can differentiate what is wrong before we recognize what is effective, useful and helpful. There are many signs that give us indications that it’s time for a change or to elevate status and/or education. These signals can be an unpleasant boss or co-worker, money is sparse, heavy workload, no gain, bad behavior (yours or others) and many different grievances. Evaluating all these unacceptable feelings, attitudes, and objectionable actions and being honest with what you need and want. We are often stuck with problems, not feeling like we can break free. Taking a few minutes to breathe, be mindful of not overreacting when making decisions, as one simple and easy solution can be all it takes. We must create balance, “our mind meets our voice meets our actions”. It only takes one step on the road to improvement.

The Power of Asking

By Tara Sutphen

 

I have this little sorcing story to tell…When the Tsunami happened in Japan, I looked out to the sea and knew this could easily be me and my beloved family, friends and pets…I thought wow, I could harbor a nice Japanese family, and then I became a little emotional and said, I really hope my friend, Michael Walker living in Japan for 11 years is safe and if I need to harbor him — I will.

 I met Michael in the early 90’s in London. He is Australian and was on a London Cricket Team. We both had this love of Edinburgh, Scotland and spent many tea’s going over where was best and why. The Children and I remained pen pals with him when he went home to Australia. In his letters he would say…come do seminars in Sydney.We’ve met up with him across Europe and Australia many times.

 He is now at my house.

Fly Butterfly

In our lifetime will we become the butterfly instead of the caterpillar. Look at the caterpillar with it’s 3 sets of legs and 8 eyes, it leisurely slinks along the ground, drags the earth and slowly gets to where it wants to go until it uses it’s ability to transform. Once in the cocoon, growing, deep in thought and plans for the change. Emerging brand new, forming beauty and wonder, flying and no longer crawling. The butterfly flies with grace and easily lands on soft flowers instead of dirt. The metaphor is much like us as humans, we go slowly and deliberately feeling half blind at times with narrow ideas and untried measures until we soon get tired of not taking steps to right our lives. Knowing we must change into our best and highest selves, striving toward securing our lives. And once we are the butterfly to spread light and love to anyone in our path. We all need assurance and the will to accomplish, to try new things. A butterfly tastes with it’s feet. How do we get to butterfly status. We don’t want to wait till we die to know, we want it now…on earth.~Tara Sutphen

 

13* Taurus New Moon

By Tara Sutphen

 
 

 13* Taurus New Moon (no moon – starry dark sky, the time of dreaming), culminating May 3, 2011. This Taurus New Moon is all about security and how you survive on a daily basis. This can be about money, your job, how you present yourself, what title you position your job, what learning you’ve done to become a specialist or an authority. First you should have training. The objective and your course usually isn’t easily conquered in a week or a month, it can take a little while to become skilled at a craft or career. Leaping into anything only works sometimes, and very rarely. Establishing oneself from the ground up and everyday is a rendezvous of labor and effort, in some way. This is not always easy, yet we choose work for our well-being and most often it was our own choice. And if we find ourselves in situations that were not our selection, how do we create the life we want to live, so we don’t become full of angst and feeling stuck.

We can find what we are passionate about, having to make sure it’s a realistic or practical enough to establish. If we feel confused, we can ask our friends and family for their opinions. We may need to brace ourselves, as they may not coddle our feelings. But you do want to keep all of their views in mind. And there are ways to promote yourself and your business prospects. If it’s a good idea or vision you will be able to spark others with your enthusiasm or new found identity. Remembering to be subtle and richly share.

There are easy ways to exchange ideas and helpfulness, other’s follow the lead and begin to support what is needed. You notice when you are being enriched by others either spiritually, emotionally, mentally or physically. Try to remain within these guidelines, using your intuition and gut reaction to positive outcome. When this isn’t the case and others are not willing to share or participate – especially if you are pulling more than half the load, it could be time to admit they need to learn without you. Many people can resent you or the situation, if you give, give, give and it may be you projecting on them your need to be liked or accepted. Recognize when you are not letting go of someone needing to find their own path. We want control, but we also want what is right for those we like or feel devotion toward.

Communicating how we present ourselves can be important. Being who we want to become is central.

Full Pink Moon

By Tara Sutphen

 
 

The Pink Moon at 27* Libra will culminate April 17, 7:44pm pst/10:44pm est (almanac). The moon is your personal spotlight in the world, as you are on the earth’s stage. This Moon is about creating confidence and wellbeing with others, processing your position of being steady support. What needs to be done to brought into balance is self-assurance. If you aren’t strong how can you expect to move into helping those you love. Relationships need constant directing to create balance. If we stay steady in our health, our emotions, our sense of self then we move into collected development and composure. When we become reliable is when our lives change for the better. Willpower is a key to resolving any weakness. There are those that sink instead of swim, you should never willingly drown. It’s not about detachment, if we all only reach out to help one person, our life will be noble. We know others who take and take or resist and oppose our better nature, abusing graciousness and honor, we need to assess and compare as these are “life’s road signs” pointing us in another direction. If boundaries need to be established then make a start and come into being. Act with kindness and compassion, as benevolence will follow.

13* Aries New Moon

By Tara Sutphen

 
 

 13* Aries New Moon (no moon – starry dark sky, the time of dreaming), culminating April 3, 2011. This Aries New Moon is all about action. No more procrastination, bring to the fore clear thought, direct speaking and movement. Step up your energy, stretch your arms to the sun and allow it’s radiance to enter your body. And if the sun isn’t out, the light of the day will do. Awaken dear soul…awaken. It is your time on the planet, your purpose awaits you.

Last month we were allowed to look at our pain and it’s origins, this month is about moving past render-less wandering. If you’ve been misunderstood in any way, take deep breaths and come back into your center of being. You are a clear thinking human, no more confusion. Honor the temple of your mind, body and soul. Alight the fire of your passion, isn’t it time to reveal the real you, your true self. Begin by restoring order every day. You know the truth and you speak it gently. You are straightforward on what you want and why you want it. That is not to say that you won’t have to take steps to acquire a wonderful career and job, wisdom and devotion, love and happiness. It can be a process, you deserve a good to great life. We can all own mediocrity but why not move past it. Night dream your perfection, day dream your perfection, step directly into your aptness. Perfection is an essence, there is no such thing as flawlessness but within the capability of our trying there is grace. There is a path before you, activate……….

Full Worm Moon

By Tara Sutphen

 
 

The Worm Moon at 28* Virgo will culminate March 19, 2:10pm pst/ 5:10pm est (almanac) The moon is your personal spotlight in the world, as you are on the earth’s stage. You are seen in the world and this Super Moon is about doing your best, creating optimum health and vitality. Taking the initiative and becoming a robust and purposeful human. Are you moving toward your goals or away from everything you ever dreamt possible. You either rally gaining access to your goals or you give up, let’s not allow surrender be an option. It could be that you are not aware of relinquishing what you do well or finest on the planet. You may not realize you aren’t trying as hard anymore, that health, wellbeing and your zest is waning. You may look in a mirror and not recognize who is staring back at you. When did this happen and why is it happening, look deeper than surface sight.

Have that self talk in the mirror, let’s not go into the outer aspects before tuning into the inner you. The outer you is how you are manifesting in the world, the inner you is quite a beautiful creation, within you houses your soul and the depth of your being. On the inside we work at gaining perspective, truthfulness, activation of the life force, creating love, becoming aware of our individual purpose, gaining inspiration on what we do well, talents and hidden capabilities. The recognition of vitality, who we are and the capacity to find what is foremost for you. If only to create solutions easily, adjusting little things, allowing bigger issues to be fragmented toward gradual results.

No more ignoring yourself or feeling out of sorts, establish strength in all areas of body, mind and spirit . Brave your life, it’s trials and tribulations, acting accordingly to rectify your confidence, learning to live easily in your body and brain. Try improving behavior and attitude, and developing talents and ideas. You may not live in the prettiest area, but start enjoying and thriving in your living space and surroundings. Look for finding purpose in your job, it might only be to bring comfort to your family or to yourself. Establish grace in your social life, seeing the good in others. Do not be someone you are not, and access your needs. Tune in to know what you are doing right and what you are doing wrong, where are you working against yourself. You can certainly see when others are out of whack, questioning their appearance, unhappiness, boisterousness, boundary issues, self absorption, mental issues, self destruction, wasted time, and unused talent. We get self conscious or too busy in the outer world to work on ourselves and sometimes lose our way. Use the gravitational pull to clear your life, allow angst and insecurities to leave your psyche. Come back to you, The Real You…

 

Journal Questions:

Take a notebook with you into your bathroom or full length mirror – create notes on how you can change your appearance, Try not to be mean to yourself, make observations – don’t be self loathing. Critique, not criticize… Write down all nice things about yourself. What do you feel about your spirit, your capacity for love, your interest in knowledge, your connection with nature. Create some real time with yourself. Do this with your clothes on and off, be vulnerable even to yourself. Meditate for a few minutes on being really alright with who you are. Soothe your soul. Be connected to your mind, spirit, body and the earth…

  Life is an evolving process. It will take us on rides of passion and pleasure to the very depths of despair. At times we consider life sheer madness, and the universe random and thoughtless. That’s when our survival instincts kick in. We strive for hopefulness, mercy and grace. From the deepest parts of ourselve’s we hold on and maneuver the ups and downs, transformation and harmonizing will bring us great wonder and some satisfaction.
  

  “There is a vitality, a life force, a quickening that is translated through you into action, and there is only one of you in all time, this expression is unique, and if you block it, it will never exist through any other medium; and be lost. The world will not have it. It is not your business to determine how good it is, not how it compares with other expression. It is your business to keep it yours clearly and directly, to keep the channel open. You do not even have to believe in yourself or your work. You have to keep open and aware directly to the urges that motivate you. Keep the channel open. No artist is pleased. There is no satisfaction whatever at any time. There is on a queer, divine dissatisfaction, a blessed unrest that keeps us marching and makes us more alive than the others.”
  

  ~Martha Graham (American Dancer, Teacher and Choreographer of modern dance, 1894-1991)
  

 

13*Pisces New Moon

By Tara Sutphen

 
 

 13* Pisces New Moon (no moon – starry dark sky, the time of dreaming), culminating March 4, 2011. This Pisces New Moon is the darkest and deepest of dreaming. How deep can you speak to your conscious and subconscious mind, going inward to reconstruct and sway yourself to thrive at life. There is an unreasonableness that we all grapple with, tempers, anger, stubbornness, loneliness, unhappiness, laziness, unworthiness and it takes an inner dialogue to remedy and balance our motives and intent. Without this unease we might react superficially through mishaps or hardships, but it’s usually radar to take a step into being more thoughtful and releasing problems. If we can’t shake our worries, fears and phobias, some of us stay in misery, denial and downright lost. We have to find that formula to gain insight on what needs to change and why. And this is that time, where we delve very deep, reaching further than we usually go with ourselves to give those pep talks and create antidotes.

Most of the time, when we look at the experiences that really hurt us, we can begin to break the cycle of connection to those people, places or things. From a deep rooted perspective, we must energetically let go of what holds us back from attaining love, jobs and career, happiness and great health. And to move on we recognize the fear and begin progress. Really letting go, usually when we reach adulthood we’ve been hurt by others plenty and must remember not to hurt ourselves. In our frustration or karma we can live out drama or trauma or get stuck and can’t make a move. I’m not talking about real tragedy for we know how painful that can be. And to overcome a sense of helplessness is daunting. That too must be examined and soothed. It’s good to have a refreshing cry, but it’s not good to cry every day. We shouldn’t stay locked in a deep space just as we shouldn’t be too on the surface.

For a whole month we are allowed to look closely at our pain and its origin and how to fix it as best we can by next new moon when we go rushing into life full on. For it’s to rest as well, deeply resting the organs, cells, and blood, the core of our being, our spirit…allowing all the pressure to float away as we intellectualize the process. And if we’re holding onto suffering we can unlock the energy attached, you may not be able to put into words how that force is locked to your body but you can release all trauma and unease.

  Loneliness affects much of the population. Self criticism hinders many from taking a chance at change, money or love. Try and look at the consequences of your speech, your manners toward others, your reactions to relatives, friends and the general public, and also how you treat yourself. Regard others as you want to be viewed and respected. Value yourself. Look deeply at all areas and if you need to correct a few of the bad habits, let it begin. Slowly and with grace, know that every day is a new day and it is yours to begin again. It is never too late…
  

   
   

   

  But you now, you wear your soul on your sleeve, exhausting your energy, propping yourself up on a tree, mumbling, or bent over your desk, asleep. Heaven gives you a form and you wear it out by pointless argument. ~Chuang Tzu (c.360 BC – c. 275 BC) early most significant interpreter of Taoism
