The Journey Within ~ New Moon in Scorpio

Dear Creative Souls, It's the New Moon in Scorpio PLUS a solar eclipse this Thursday, October 23rd and time again for a Creative Soul Challenge and Creative Soul Card from my very own deck. It's also time to set your intentions for the month ahead. I will also be sharing a Creative Soul Body Challenge in my Facebook group, the Creative Soul Circle where membership is free.

If you like what you see in this article then you will love my Creative Soul Class which will be starting in Nov/Dec, 2014 in Riverside County, California in several locations to be announced soon and also online at the Wise Woman University in 2015.

Creative Soul Card: Ande was ready for any adventure

Affirmation: I adventure within on a journey of soul.

We are going deep within for healing at this new moon to visit the small, scared child within as we go back to a time when tears were held in or released.

We journey.

And we journey.

Until our small, naked self appears and we cry out our own name. We reach for our child self and we hug her or him close allowing the warmth of our touch and our hearts to melt...to melt...to melt our fears and to release their grip on us, washing everything clean.

We allow our child self to reside in us where she/he will be safe and protected forever.

Creative Soul Challenge

Who did this to you? Who caused you grief and trauma and hurt as a child? And can you go back in history to see this pattern repeating itself through the generations?

Malachite's Healing Song

Bless me Mother

Bless me Father

For I am whole and holy

and perfect just as I am.

My healing comes in leaps and bounds

and I am open yet vulnerable

to life's travails.

So I ask for Your protection

and Guidance on this long road

called Life.

And I ask for Your Blessings

as I sing Your song:

I am but a bee

in the flower

in your garden,

where bliss

resides in me

around me

around us all.

Blessed Be

Stand up for YOU and Let Go of Negativity: New Moon in Libra

It's the New Moon in Libra on September 23 at 11:14 pm Pacific time. Libra is ruled by the planet Venus, the Goddess of Love so it's time to take a good, hard look at all your relationships, including the one you have with yourself.

As usual, I have pulled a Creative Soul Card from my own handpainted 'lefty'  deck and written/channeled a New Moon Challenge to go along with it along with a song for Libra's Healing Gemstone, the Bloodstone. I was also inspired by the beautiful setting (see photo to your left) where I held this New Moon Circle; a place where the Green Goddess is very happy, content and thriving.

If you are inspired by this material then you may be interested in attending my upcoming Creative Soul Classes which will meet online and in-person at the New and Full Moon.

Libra's Song & Meditation *to be sung outside if possible*

Listen Listen Listen to the wind. Become the wind. You ARE the wind.

Does it chill you? Warm you? Relax you? Frighten you? Take note. Relax your bones, letting the wind carry you until you are everywhere all at once - at one with the wind.

Breathe in Breathe out Breathe in Breathe out

This is the energy of the Libra New Moon.

Balanced. Beautiful. Becalmed

Song of the Bloodstone ~ a Libra Healing Stone

I am first I am glorious I am healed I am Bloodstone flowing and in tune with Mama Moon.

I cherish I hold I love fierce and true and proud.

O New Moon, take me break me make me whole as I sing your song and I bloom I bloom I bloom.

O Bloodroot, take me down to the depths where each seed I plant is true.

Blessed Be.

Creative Soul Card & Challenge for the New Moon in Libra

Libra New Moon Card: The liar at the crossroads

Affirmation: I stand up for me, not neg-a-tiv-ity.

This card challenges you to seek and find where you're out of balance. To gather with those of like-mind and to let go of negative energy and negative people who feed on your energy and who bring you down. Help them, yes, but don't let them feed on you energetically. Take notice of how you feel after being with them and distance yourself when necessary.

This card accepts and takes from you all that negativity, so let it roll right out of you and into that black ball within the "Liar at the Crossroads". Your choice.

At this New Moon, along with setting your intentions for the moonth ahead, I challenge you to let go of one negative person, thing, feeling, energy, vibe - whatever it is. Make sure to get some support along the way, either from your Moon Group, in the Creative Soul Circle (my free Facebook Group) or from close friends or a counselor.

Dream & Dance & Heal: Full Moon in Pisces

It's almost the Full Moon in that most mystical, magical, and spiritually inclined sign of the zodiac; Pisces so I decided to choose a card from my Creative Soul Deck and to sleep with it under my pillow while requesting Dream Guidance and Insights from Mama Moon & the Divine.

Creative Soul Card for the Full Moon in Pisces

Creative Soul Card: Guess -poet-

Affirmation: I dream the Divine in everything.

This is the dream, the dream called life and you are in the middle of it.

As if we know exactly what we're doing here...well, we don't, but by tuning into Mama Moon we open our hearts creatively as we spoon feed ourselves the nourishment we crave, oh that we crave so dearly.

Moonstone Meditation & Song

A Meditation to be sung or said aloud under the light  of the Full Moon *shared with my Creative Soul Circle ~ all are welcome to join this group on Facebook at no cost.

Creative Soul Challenge

I invite you to join my Creative Soul Circle and Sing the Song of the Moonstone together with your fellow Moon Musers as you catch your first glimpse of Mama Moon; full in Pisces on September 8th.

At this time Mama Moon is joined in the sky by Chiron, the planetoid (?) of wounded healers.

Where have you been wounded?

How will you release that wound by the light of the Full Moon?

You know the way. You ARE guided. Allow the mystical glow and guidance of this Full Moon to cleanse you and shower your dreams with new visions and old visions re-visioned anew.

Then dance, dance, dance in your heart for you are free.

And Guess -poet- always encourages poetry so be open to receiving pearls of wisdom in unexpected ways.
