A Black Moon, Two Eclipses & The Great Benefic? Wow, May is going to be interesting…

Hi Everyone

I hope you haven’t made too many plans for the weekend! We are in for a bumper dose of cosmic energy as Eclipse season hits us.

On April 30th we will have a SOLAR Eclipse. A solar eclipse can only take place at the phase of new moon, when the moon passes directly between the Sun and Earth and its shadows, also known as its umbra, falls upon Earth’s surface. Just before and during sunset, the Moon will cover a part of the sun causing a partial eclipse. This new moon is also called a BLACK MOON (the second new moon in the same calendar month). It will also mark the end of Ramadan for Muslims which means that their month-long period of fasting has come to an end. The celebration of Eid will be on May 1 or May 2, depending on where you are in the world and festivities will begin after the local sighting of the crescent, slightly illuminated moon.

Astrologically speaking, experts are hinting that this eclipse is a peak point in our collective destiny and that shocks and surprises involving politicians/global figures will shape us all going forward. I have my eye on the British Royal family:-)

Mid-month we will have another eclipse. This time a TOTAL LUNAR Eclipse (May 15/16th). This is a big deal and definitely one of the peak points of this year! We can feel this eclipse energy up to a month before and up to 6 months later. This particular eclipse is happening in the sign of SCORPIO. There is always intensity at any full moon but this Scorpio flavor is emotional and supercharged. Scorpio will bring to light dirty laundry, secrets, and dark and hidden matters which are likely to play out on the public stage courtesy of the full moon. I plan to look at what I can RELEASE that is toxic in my life as well as the shadow matters that I need to air.

Another thing to bear in mind is that from May 11th Jupiter will move into Aries. Aries is the first sign of the Zodiac and a Cardinal Sign. This is another strong energy that I think we are going to feel because Jupiter- also known as The Great Benefic (/bɪˈnɛfɪk/) – will always bring EXPANSION and PERSONAL GROWTH.

**Here’s a fun exercise for you to do**: Jupiter has a 12-year cycle so it moved into Aries in June 2010. Look back at your life and into your old journals if possible. What was happening around June 2010? Which life areas were booming/changing/expanding at this time? This is likely to be the same life area that will be expanding again this time around. You should also look at which HOUSE in your chart is likely to be most affected by this energy. You can do this by looking at your specific birth chart. If like me, you have your Sun/Moon/Ascendant in Aries then this should be a time of huge opportunity and upward momentum. Also remember to take action (Aries is all about action) on things you want to look back at in 12 years’ time and say Yes, that’s what I dreamed-in and worked on in a big way in May 2022!

Friends, we are in for a bumper ride. I am sending you love and I hope that your life is full of unexpected wonder! Astrology is not an exact science but it sure helps to know what energies are at play doesn’t it? Besides, Abraham Lincoln, the 16th US President said: “The best way to predict the future is to create it”.

Please let me know how you feel about eclipses and share any interesting rituals, stories, and facts with me.

Into the Light,

Angel Numbers 222

Hello Lovers

Happy Valentines Day to you! Whether or not you celebrate this day, it is definitely a good time to think about all things love, romance and partnership.

I don’t know if you noticed (I always do because I think in numbers) but this month of love is full of 2s:

February 2, 2022,

February 20, 2022

and February 22, 2022

We won’t see the 222 sequence again for another century, until 2/2/2222!

I was so happy to find out that the number 2 is one of the most significant angel numbers! This definitely resonates with me. Angels have been on my mind a lot and it’s not just the man-of-the-moment – that cute naked Cherub, Cupid. Guardian Angels are assigned to each human being before birth. Some people have just one, while others have many depending on their soul’s mission and unique destiny in this incarnation.

Our Guardian Angels know us very well. They understand our unique set of challenges and they want to help us navigate them. They also know our fears, goals, and dreams. They take a sacred oath to stay with us, advocate for us, and assist us throughout life.

Angels love to leave signs for us to assure us of their presence. Whenever I receive such a sign, I say “thank you” out loud. They love to be acknowledged this way, and it encourages them to send more messages. Try it!

Another way I know my angels are close is through smells. It is usually a waft of a beautiful flowery fragrance that passes through my home/office with no other explanation that assures me I have company of the angelic kind.

I know the names of my angels but if you have never connected with yours, here are some tips:

Journal/Meditate with a clear intention about connecting with your angels
Ask for their name/s
Ask for a special sign (feather, music, a unique smell) that will be unique to you
Pay attention to little messages that turn up on your drive to work, in the lyrics of a song and see if those correspond with the qualities of one particular angel
Keep a dream journal next to your bed. Angels sometimes make an appearance in our dreams and can also come through telepathically during sleep to give us important messages.

In addition to our Guardian Angels, there are a whole range of others on standby. Take Archangels, for example. Archangels are like generals, helping to oversee all other angels. There is one for every purpose and every problem. Archangels like Michael, Ariel, Uriel and Gabriel are the most popular and they love to be called on when we are facing big challenges. Do yourself a favor and read up on the special qualities of each of these powerful celestial beings. They are the big guns, just waiting for you to connect so that they can come to the rescue!

I laughed the other day when my friend’s son asked her why the first words that angels in The Bible always say is “Be not afraid”. I guess they know us human beings too well.

Relationships are a 2-way street. What we put in is what we get out. So invest some time in your relationship with your angels, my friends.

I wish you guidance, friendship, protection, and a sense that you are never alone.

Thank you Betty White, Martin Luther King Jr & Mrs Full Moon

I was invited to a wonderful event over the weekend in celebration of the great Betty White (RIP).

It would have been a celebration of her 100th birthday had she been spared just a little more time on earth. At the event I learned that Betty had been the first woman to produce a National TV show, the first woman to star in a sitcom, the first producer to hire a woman director AND the first woman to receive an Emmy nomination. How inspiring!

I just love this picture of a young Betty White on Monterey Bay

Then, as I sat on my porch anticipating the full moon on Monday on the holiday that commemorates the birthday of the great Dr. Martin Luther King Jr, my sixth sense began to heighten to alert me to the special, high vibes in the air again. So I tuned in.

The energy of both Betty White and Dr. King floated into my awareness. What came through is that they had both served their purpose and that I need to keep pursuing mine. Thank you, Mrs full moon! You always illuminate things for me! Now that my audiobook is complete, I DO HAVE A(NOTHER) DREAM! And yes it does involve the big screen.

As always, you will be the first to know more about that when the time is right. For now, I am just letting the first full moon of 2022 carry this inspired energy out into the Cosmic Consciousness where the blueprints for everything we desire reside!

Before I run off and immerse myself in dreaming-in a few other cool things with the help of some good quality cannabis & fresh air, I also wanted to update you on my audiobook. It will be available for purchase in February. I will keep you posted.

I hope you also find the inspiration to follow your dreams in 2022. If you get stuck, remember the words of the great Martin Luther King Jr when he said, “Faith is taking the first step even when you don’t see the whole staircase.” That’s definitely my plan.

Once in a BLUE MOON

Hey Moon Lovers

I hope you are ready for some one-of-a-kind blue moon magic because this August 22, 2021 moon is a special one. This is the second full moon in a row rising in the sign of Aquarius – which means double the light (illuminations, reveals, conclusions, missing pieces) + double the opportunity.

This moon is also known as the Sturgeon Moon. Legend has it that this name came about because the giant Sturgeon Fish were plentiful at this point in summer and therefore easiest to catch.That is what this moon is all about : Catching those BIG FISH.

Here are my top tips on using the energy of this moon:

Get creative. With this moon rising in the sign of Aquarius, your creative juices are going to be pumping. The need for self-expression will be a theme. Journal, cook, paint, write. Find ways to channel that bubbling energy.
Think of your “big fish”. What are your biggest goals? What have you been working on that you need to finish with a bang? We are manifesting at a much more rapid rate than ever before with the amount of high-frequency light that is currently pouring onto our planet. Don’t sleep on this one. Now is the time to catch those big fish.
Rest. I can’t emphasize this enough. You may feel directionless and overwhelmed by all the energies at play. Ground yourself. Let the light of the full moon show you the best routes/maps/paths while you rest. (I plan to use a CBD strain of cannabis and meditation).

That’s it, friends. I wish you a wonderful weekend and lots of LIGHT,

8/8 = BIG magic at the peak of the Lions Gate/Infinity Portal

Hi Friends

Are you looking for some winning lottery numbers? I would bet on number 8! I’m kidding. But can you feel that? I definitely can. There is an explosive energy in the air. The ancient cultures wrote this. We are at the peak of the Lion’s Gate Portal. I found out that another name for this portal is also the INFINITY PORTAL, represented by the number 8.

Today is special. It’s an energetic activation of the numbers 8/8, August: eighth month, in the sign of Leo the lion, on the eighth day of the year. I LOVE NUMBERS! Can you tell? (I’m a tax accountant by profession and my brain is wired this way)

The number 8 in Numerology represents:

*abundance *prosperity *inner wisdom

It is also a number associated with karma.

The shape reminds me of balance and harmony. I like the way everything is connected in one constant flow. It is symbolic of giving and receiving, our inter-connectedness with every living thing and also a reminder that energy is never static. WE ARE PART OF THE FLOW.

In Chinese culture, the number 8 is considered the luckiest number of all! There are people who make sure that the number 8 goes into their children’s names to give them the best possible chance of success and prosperity.

The Orion constellation also aligns perfectly with the Pyramids of Giza in Egypt at the time that Sirius aligns perfectly with the Sun. This also happens at the time of the peak of the INFINITY PORTAL. Incredible!

So, my friends, look out for the new moon. Don’t miss this opportunity to make a wish list and read it out loud. Manifestations are on offer and, unlike lotto numbers the results are guaranteed. It is written in the stars:-)

Love

P.S. A word of warning: The new moon in Leo is in a conjunction with Mercury. This means that Mercury is essentially combust. It is forming a tight T-Square with Uranus in Taurus and activating some heavy energy — a continuation of energy that has been around with the Saturn-Uranus Square. What a mouthful huh? Well, without going too deep I wanted to mention this because it could mean that many of us will be dealing with INCREASED FEELINGS OF ANXIETY, AGITATION, DESPAIR, AND PAIN. This is stuff we have been dealing with all year, but this new moon will bring it up more. So be aware and take time to ground yourself. xoxo

Thriving During MERCURY RETROGRADE (May 29, 2021-June 22, 2021

Hey Friends

Even if you don’t read your daily horoscope, you have probably heard someone complaining about “Mercury Retrograde”.

Mercury Retrograde has gotten a bad reputation, and it’s not surprising. Computers revolt and refuse to perform. Cars break down and all forms of communication are unclear, at best.

But Mercury Retrograde isn’t all bad. In fact, it is one of my favorite Astrological Seasons.

It’s a great time to find lost objects. Items that have been lost for months and even years seem to materialize out of thin air. It’s also the perfect time to connect with anyone from your past.

Cancelled appointments and rescheduled plans are often the rule and not the exception while Mercury naps. This creates space and opportunity for spontaneous experiences.

I have learned to surrender to the slower pace Mercury Retrograde brings and just go with the flow.

I am never disappointed! I actually look forward to it.

Wanna join me?

Lunar Eclipse on May 26th 2021 = BIG Changes

Hello Sunshines

We are just hours away from the Lunar Eclipse in Sagittarius (May 26, 2021) and we will be able to see the Blood Flower Supermoon in all its glory.

In Western Astrology, Lunar Eclipses are a powerful time. They bring big CHANGE often on a global level. It’s also the first day of a new Trecena within the Mayan count of days. The Trecena of Tijax.

I’m excited.

The sign of Sagittarius and the nawal of Tijax share a similar energy, that of the Holy Warrior.

If there are some big changes in the air (and boy have I been feeling this for months as far as the planet in general goes), then I say let’s learn to adapt and harness the higher vibrational cosmic energy to support the NEW.

On a more personal level, it’s always a good idea to PIVOT/CHANGE DIRECTION/U-TURN as we grow, evolve and expand our consciousness. This is the time!

It’s an opportunity when we can alter and shift our DESTINY/FATE/LIFE PATH in a major way. Here’s the thing, friends, the change is here. It WILL happen. The question is only how willing you are going to be to flow with that which is aligning to your new vibration?

Will you resist OR will you flow? Will you stay where you are or will go to where you are being directed?

I plan to enjoy some delightful Sativa flower and create an outdoor altar for Lady Luna. I will thank my Guides for their support and flow with the big changes coming my way. My preview looks grand!

Happy Blood Flower Super Moon Gazing,

Cara, Seeker of Magic, Spreader of Light

P.S. Can I make a prediction? Donald Trump’s star is going to keep rising. Do some Googling and find out when he was born. I will give you a hint *you will find the word “eclipse” somewhere in there.
