I’m prepping for tonight’s Full Moon Circle – we’ll be making aromatherapy “potions”! We have a Super Moon (characterized as such because of how close the moon is to earth) in Pisces. And this lunation is perfect for releasing, particularly with an emphasis on old grief, that which has “died,” and moving on to the next phase of our lives.

“During this lunation, it may be important to recognise what is dead and gone; to celebrate what once was and to mourn its passing because it is only by surrendering to this process that the light finally comes. And that light is hauntingly beautiful, sweetened by tenderness; adorned by compassion and unconditional love. If you were hurt, forgive yourself, release the past, reframe, paint a new picture to inspire you for the future – because you are still here, standing at the shores of new adventures, if you allow it. Mars in Leo perfects a quincunx to Pluto in Capricorn shortly before the Full Moon, pointing the way ahead. It’s about knowing that you can take action, even when in the face of death – physical or metaphorical. It’s about recovering your passion for life when everything else has been stripped away. It’s remaining young at heart and vital, even when old age creeps up, tapping at the door. Love unconditionally. Accept what was, surrender to what is and trust that the tides of life will carry you to further radiant experiences.”
