Tis the New Moon tonight, I see her silvery crescent
beginning to grow, she is setting early tonight and stunning me against the purple and pink sunset sky.
I celebrated the Dark moon on Sunday with a
burning of the contents of my God Jar in my cauldron as the sun set.
Faerie, what is
a God Jar? You ask perhaps..
I found the concept of the God Jar within the
life changing book The Artist’s Way
by Julia Cameron. God is seen as Good Orderly Direction for the non-religious
amongst us and the idea of the God Jar is to place things that are overwhelming
and too much to deal with, burdens and fears within the God Jar for god, the
great creator to deal with them for you so you don’t have to stew it all in
your brain.
Writing stuff down really helps me
Burning stuff really helps me
So putting the two together is really a case of
bippity boppedy boo! It just works for me :D
I place the New Moon midway between the eve of
the Dark Moon and the first quarter both falling on a Sunday this week so
Wednesday seems to work for me and that is the actual key - make it work for you!
I know some folk who celebrate the New Moon at
the time of the Dark Moon. I like to separate them as I feel two different
types of energy at work here and in an over culture dominated with perpetual go
go go, I value the Dark Moon as a time to STOP, reflect, let go and listen. It's like the
blessed pause between two breaths. Lets take a moment to breathe right now
Inhale for a count of 4 …. Then pause
Then exhale for a count of 4 …. then pause
Ah the simple wonder of our breathing – I love
it!
The Dark Moon holds the energy of taking the
time to stop and breathe and come back together before a new cycle begins ..
tonight!
So the first New Moon of 2016
Hello my sister, my friend la luna. I would like to plant some dreaming seeds this blessed night.
Some seeds to help my creativity grow this
coming year.
Some seeds of intention and love to bloom in my
heart garden for the Handmade Wonderland community to enjoy.
Dream – 1
Publish my Colour-In Book
Dream -2
Finish the Faerie Oracle
Dream - 3
Create a Handmade Wonderland Exhibition of my
original paintings and enchanted forest faeries and creations
Dream -4
Continue to combine my magikal spiritual path
with my Art for your Heart workshops and truly share my heArt with the
community.
So I am just going to put it all out there because I also have sparkly inklings towards Yoga
Teacher Training… eep and while I’m at it I also want to travel and hold heArt workshops
and I’d love to train in Vienna at the Visionary Art Academy and in Sweden to
learn more about Vedic Art … squee!
