New Moon March 11th

This New Moon brings me new to the blog scene, with high hopes of expanding the light and love of the Universe to all.   It is a beautiful spring here in the Sierra Nevada Mountains, the glistening snow, like sparkling stars, covers the landscape. Each snowflake a mini universe in itself, just as we ourselves are the reflection of the greater universe.
Through the snow, the first robin has been seen, heralding the return of the light here in the high country. The depth of the blue in the sky reflected by the great waters of Lake Tahoe is breathtaking in its brilliance.  

Take a moment this day to marvel at the wonders of nature wherever you are and let yourself relax into that timelessness of childhood awe.  The scope of our lives is before us, the perceptions of our daily lives opens up into new possibilities when we take a deep breath and RELAX!

With swift Mercury, the planet of communication now in retrograde motion, we are allowed to let our mental energy deepen into our subconscious minds and make contact with that on the mental level which can now be released through love and forgiveness.  Our minds wish to seek out the truth with Mercury being placed in this decanate of 7 degrees Pisces.   We may find ourselves engaged in problems from our past that are wanting to be healed on the karmic level.

Now is the time to face your darker issues and consciously choose to bring the healing light to them.  Surround the dark within, in Light and Love, to bring balance to your life as we move towards the Spring Equinox on March 20th.  This one moment of balance between the light of day and the dark of night happens only twice a year, providing us with the blueprint to forge ahead in our own knowledge of light and dark, yin and yang, the balance we can manifest within, to calm our minds and refresh our soul and spirit. 

Remember, right before each New Moon is a great time to clear away old and stagnant energies, any negative emotions lingering on in your environment and any habits you wish to now let go of, making room for the fresh, invigorating and exciting energies you wish to invite into your home.  Smudging with a variety of aromatic herbs such as sage, rosemary, lavender, cedar or sweetgrass will clear and clean your space on the physical and astral levels. Infusing your highest spiritual intentions into the blessing of your home or office will bring new awareness and clarity to those who live there.  Good health and high energy are enhanced when you choose to consciously make way for the New Moon's vitality and power.

This New Moon, placed in the watery sign of Pisces, in the ninth house of Spirituality and Higher Mind will flood you with new understanding, mentally and emotionally, of your chosen path.
As the moon grows through the month, from new to full, chart your course carefully, navigate the deep waters of this time with your highest ideals as your guiding compass.  
The growing light of the moon, reflecting the light of our sun. reminds us that we too are illuminated, like the moon, by the Divine Essence of Spirit residing in each of us. 
As Above, So Below.
Blessings to all on this fine day!
