Eclipse Advice
Are you not in complete awe of the synchronistic size and distance of the Sun, Moon, and Earth?! Today is a full Moon in the sign of Pisces. And a lunar eclipse. The Moon fully reflects the Sun’s light. Then the Earth steps between the two luminaries, precisely blocking the flow of light and causing the Moon to go dark. What magic is this?!
This is the magic of reality on planet Earth. This is the magic of a reset of consciousness. Pisces being the sign of dreams and depths, sensuality and martyrdom (among other keywords), and the eclipse being an opportunity to completely end and begin anew, take this moment in cosmic time to stop and re-calibrate. Try the classic witchy technique of writing an intention on a slip of paper and activating it by setting it afire. Or settle in for some breath work and meditation. Or drumming. Or, knowing the door has completely closed on one phase of your life, willingly, bravely, open the door to a new one. Or simply experience what you feel today and allow.
Now, the poem.
Eclipse Advice The earth says stop. A Shadow is imminent. You will want to pause - take a slow deep breath - make time to consider each step - as the moon does her seasonal pas de deux.
With thanks, as ever, to the original word witch, Kate Belew.
