Weekend Forecast

Today, Mercury sextiles Neptune. Mercury, the mind, is plugged into the ocean of consciousness. We can tap into our Soul’s guidance. Our intuitive awareness is heightened. We can sense and feel the truth. We are being guided. Write down your dreams and notice downloads of new ideas. Follow your inspirations this weekend. Listen to your intuition. Trust your gut. This is a great weekend to meditate, journal write, do something creative, dance, sing, write, draw, connect through music, or walk by the ocean. Explore and grow.

Today, the Last Quarter Moon is preparing us for the New Moon on February 9th and the changes in energy coming in as we progress into February. Mercury will enter the sign of Aquarius on February 5th and conjunct Pluto for the first time in 200 years! We are living in transformative times, more on this rare conjunction in my next blog. For now, pay close attention to the subtle changes inspired within you and in your outer world. Notice dreams, synchronicities, and signs from the Universe. You are being spoken to. Learn to listen. Notice what and who shows up in your life, and the leaves that fall from the tree of your life. Don’t resist change. Keep walking forward.

The Last Quarter Moon, invites us to review what no longer serves us. As the Moon loses Light, life is taken away from the areas of our lives that need changing. From now till the next New Moon, we get a chance to notice what is no longer serving us by being honest with ourselves and listening to our hearts. Take stock of your life. What is missing? What has died? What is growing? What is birthing? What do you truly want? What is life bringing to your attention?

A powerful lesson I have learned from the sign of Aquarius is to practice compassionate non-attachment. Particularly, detaching from the past. Holding on to the past prevents us from living in the now. We find comfort in holding on to the past. Yet, the past is gone. Whatever you were doing yesterday, is now the past and will never be repeated the same, exact way again. No moment in time is repeated twice. And yet how often do we seek to repeat moments in time? For example, how often do you order the same food, expecting it to taste the same way it did the last time you had it? The truth is that it is not the same food. And yet we do it anyway. But what if…you ordered the same food but this time welcomed it for the new experience that it is? How would it taste then? What if you could meet this new moment in time without comparing it to the past? How would your relationships change? What if you could see people in your life as if it were for the first time every time you saw them? You would let go of your preconceptions, assumptions, and past experiences and allow people to be who they truly are in this new moment in time. They would be free to be themselves, and to show you who they’ve become. And you would also be free to be yourself.  Holding on to our past experiences limits our ability to live in the now moment completely. Pluto and Mercury in Aquarius will open our eyes and wake us up by teaching us to rise above our outdated mental constructs, and past experiences and welcome a brand, new way of seeing the world around us. Stay awake!
