“No tree, it is said, can grow to heaven
unless its roots reach down to hell.”
― Carl Jung
Blessings Cosmic Being,
How is Eclipse Season treating ya?
All I can say is thank goodness for this ancient practice of Yoga to help keep us sane in an insane world.
The overall intensity and uncertainty that arises during eclipse season is what makes this time so transformative and cathartic!
Eclipses are catalysts for individual and collective evolution.
This Sunday May 15, 2022 at about 9:15 PM MST we have a Full Flower Moon Lunar Eclipse 25° of Scorpio!
A Lunar Eclipse occurs on a Full Moon and supercharges its powerful energy.
Eclipse season occurs about every six months and lasts for about 34 days.
On top of Eclipse season we had Mercury go Gatorade… I mean Retrograde on Tuesday May 10th teaching us how to be patient with ourselves and others, forgive, let go, slow down and be thorough.
The Moon is all about reflection, after all the Moon reflects the light from the Sun.
Full Moons are about Full Expression, Celebrating Progress and our Intentions Manifesting.
Each Full Moon is named based on the season and geographical location.
Can you guess why this May Full Moon is called a Flower Moon? ;)
This Transformative Full Flower Moon in Scorpio brings in the second eclipse of the season.
Scorpio is a powerful water sign ruled by Pluto, the Great Revealer planet.
Water represents our emotions and subconscious.
Scorpio leads us through the cycles of Life & Death, teaching us about Transformation.
As an interpersonal sign, Scorpio inspires us to merge in union and share with another person.
This Fixed sign gives us lasting productive energy.
