All month long we are travelers on
a narrow path seeking illumination.
Illumination of truth, especially
the truth behind any masks, is found on our pilgrimage today.
So be aware, once again, that
things may not be as they first seem.
The Moon creeps up on the
Black Moon for their first conjunction of the Black Moon's transit through
Leo.
The exact conjunction happens late
tonight, but the energy will build all day.
We will get our first glimpse of
this energy's nature and how it is affecting us.
Remember that the Black Moon in Leo
involves issues related to order, position, status, hierarchy, arrogance… and
knowing it all, ego-centricity, and the fear of change.
These sorts of themes play out
today and we will get the first opportunity to practice flowing with
changes.
Changes to the existing order
underlies the energy.
With this, we are not inclined to
appreciate being told what to do or being called out on something for which we
are not responsible.
In my book on the Black Moon, I
discuss how the Black Moon in Leo can assault one's ego.
Ego has become a bad word.
But ego is a part of our
nature.
It is a natural thing.
It directs us toward what makes us
happy and what helps us actualize our potential as humans.
It also helps us stand up and
defend ourselves.
Many believe we are supposed to
"overcome" our egos, but I believe that the ego is a necessary for
action in the world.
Ego-centricity is the negative
aspect.
Being focused solely on oneself is
unnatural because we are all one and no one is above another.
That said, taking good care of
yourself is not ego-centric unless it becomes the sole focus.
We need to make friends with our
ego, not try to banish it to the badlands.
Remember also that Mars is now
moving retrograde (appearing to move backwards in the sky).
Mars is fiery.
Anytime the Moon, which is the catalyst
for events, moves into the fire signs of Aries, Leo, or Sagittarius… but
especially Leo since the Black Moon is there, anger will rise to the
surface.
Mars retrograde is changing how we
use our energy, so situations where our energy is out of balance will come
forward for us to see the need to change.
We are clued in to this based on
what we dread, procrastinate doing, and are avoiding.
Take in the data that comes from
today's events.
What are you being shown?
The overarching mission this month
is to load the field of dreams.
We are connecting to higher
callings, higher purposes, higher development and infusing our thoughts and
wishes with them.
We're creating a "wish
list" for the universe and putting in our two cents on how we want life to
be.
Our desires are powerful and they
use the law of resonance to order our lives.
If you find yourself becoming mired
in the complexity of the energy, flip out of that stream of thought and back to
the notion of loading what you want to manifest.
Remember that the energy is about
change, so envision what you want to change.
Balsamic is the magical time of
year when the veils between the worlds are thinnest.
Don't forget how strong your mind
is and what it can do.
Yes! Thank you! <3
