The Lunar Lowdown – a few notes

While not a transcript of our current video by any means,
I’ve included the notes below if you’d prefer to read or for referencing the information later!

Actual Time of Celestial Event: Wednesday October 20th, 2021 @ 8:57 am MDT
Sun’s position:           2 degrees Libra (The Scales)
Moon’s position:        2 degrees Aries (The Ram)

Libra speaks of balance, and partnership… at the same time, the soulful moon in Aries speaks of new beginnings, new starts…

I see traditional imagery for this time of year: a scarecrow… and corn… bundles of cornhusks, stalks of corn bundled together in the fields and one of them is quite large and opens!  It has an opening like a teepee, it is shaded within there… an elder sits within, beckons us to come inside this hut.

The elder sits here with a knife and a bowl and she is working with food – it is the busy harvest time and her hands are not idle – she’s processing and bringing in harvest, taking out seeds, pits and preparing for winter.  Her hands are messy and she says something like, “you have to break some eggs to make an omelette!”

…the feeling I’m getting from her is one that this is a time harvest, of processing. it’s a busy time, almost a frantic time as this good weather won’t last and the cold is on its way and so now we are in the process of gathering, digesting as we prepare to enter this new phase of the year.

This full moon cycle is a time to take advantage of the warm heat the energy that you feel within you to tuck things in around you …bring in the harvest before the freeze… whether  that’s literally happening where you are or not, it’s a metaphor for battening down the hatches!

And to any kind of fear this elder, this grandmother, pats my hand and she says it’s been a very abundant year and yes maybe abundant in some things that you didn’t want but it’s rich – do not worry; instead look around at the abundance that has grown around you this year and is now coming to fruition.

“nourish” she says “nourish yourself that you can shine with the radiant wisdom of balance …meeting the reflection of change in the world!”

In other words find and practice that what you need to be balanced in your soul, in your heart, in your mind and your feelings – in your expressions into this complicated world

new things, new ways, new change is constantly coming towards us from the future.

Nourish yourself in the ways that you know how.
