Saturday marks the first full moon of spring 2018! This is a full weekend for sure. This full moon typically goes by the name of the sap moon or the worm moon. As we enter spring the sap begins to flow. Maple producers all across my region celebrated "Maple Syrup Weekend" last weekend. Warming weather wakes up not only the bears but the trees. The dry stiff limbs begin to have fluid movement again. Our region is showing signs of the sap from the maple trees running strong. This sap is collected and boiled into a delicious treat of maple syrup. As we mirror nature, our winter blood is beginning to thin and our energy begins to return and flow; pushing away those winter blues. Are you feeling as though you are ready to let the juices flow on some new spring projects?
This moon is also known as the worm moon. The earth is now softening, so we can see the path of the earth warm in the grass. The robins have returned and the earth worms are close enough to the surface for the birds to feast. Are you feeling like the early bird that gets the worm? This full moon is at direct alignment at 8:37 am EST Saturday morning. We are able to release our final sluggish baggage from the winter months. This is a great time to smudge our homes and offices. We can do this using smoke smudges, herbal sprays, and also sound vibration. Changing the vibration to release density from our field is part of the manifestation process. With this full moon support, we will begin to truly feel inspired to get a head start on spring cleaning in our inner and outer worlds! This moon cycle falls during a Mercury RETRO-grade. A time when the planet Mercury appears to be spinning in a backwards orbit. Without getting into to much detail, the larger planet Jupiter is also in RETRO-grade. When large planets shift, they bring with those shifts great pulls of energy. When Mercury is in RETRO-grade, this is historically a time to stay away from new financial contracts or agreements. Not that you could not choose to sign a new contract; yet typically, that contract might need a future tweak or two. A "REdo" down the line. It can also be an interesting time for communication and technology during a Mercury RETRO-grade period. As we are just beginning to clear out what is ready to be released from winter, why not take some time over the next few weeks to REcycle, REorganize, REdesign, and REalign your life in a new season. You may already be in alignment with this rhythm? I know I have been. I plan to incorporate a food detox to clean out and REadjust my lymphatic system so that my body is ready to filter the spring pollen that will arrive as the trees bud. This moon is also noted as a Blue Moon. It will be our final Blue Moon until Halloween night 2020! This is merely a term given to describe a second full moon within a calendar month. Based of how time is currently tracked, it is not as rare as described. We notably have a "blue moon" once every 2-3 years. As you have followed my guidance, you may have noticed I don't get overly interactive with the term "blue" moon. The cycles of the moon have been set to nature since the beginning of time. Ancient cultures like the Mayan followed the ebb and flow of the moon cycle. The moon cycles close to a 28 day rhythm. It wasn't until recent modern times that we began tracking the moon in an uneven manner. When we began to track time by the Gregorian calendar, we lost the rhythm of nature. A month, used to also be labeled a "Moonth"; for time passed with the ebb and flow of the moon. As you embrace this first full moon and the manifestation rhythm, you begin to align with the cycles of the moon regardless of the date on the calendar. Of course we also have a connection to many celebrated holiday traditions this weekend connected to this full moon. May you all be blessed with bright moonBEams as we reconnect with the dawn of spring and new growth begins to stir! As a reminder, on 4/4, we will take another step up the time spiral of 2018!

The new moon for March arrived at direct alignment at 9:14am EST, (Top O' The Mornin') on March 17th. This is our final new moon of the winter season here in the northern hemisphere. This coming week, we will once again align with the time of equal balance with the spring equinox, in the northern hemisphere; and the fall equinox, in the southern hemisphere. Our new moon is in Pisces, so what does that mean? We are also in a Mercury RETROgrade. The Pisces' energies may have you feeling a bit emotional or flowing as it is a water sign. Even though this is a new moon, you may also find yourself feeling ready to RElease and REdo some of your past desires. This is a REflection of the energies that are also contributing to the field at this time through Mercury RETROgrade.
As we begin to also gain support from the planetary shift of seasons, those of us in the northern hemisphere begin to stir and dream of possibilities. Depending on your location you may still be in a deep freeze or snow covered, yet your heart is beginning to flutter awake with urges of future seeds to start planting. Be guided this new moon to allow your region of the earth to speak to you. Be guided by your inner knowing. In my region, although spring arrives in a few days, the landscape and inner guidance is leaning more towards taking care of the final stages of inner work prior to stepping outside to create. This is also a literal message. We are snow covered so no yard work. Clean the inside of the house first this spring and the outside will line up soon enough. In the southern hemisphere the final harvests and bounties will be gathered as dreams of a peaceful reflecting period will be next to arrive during your winter season. This new moon, falling on March 17th, is also within the time spiral of the celebration of Saint Patrick. He is a symbol of joy, good fortune, and luck. Embrace all of the particles of light streaming in from the universe as you dream like an Irish dreamer and write your wish list to the new moon tonight. All the Irish eyes will be smiling down upon you. On a side note, Saint Patrick was the patron Saint of Ireland yet his family lineage was not "from" Ireland. Another truth to the expression everyone is Irish on Saint Patrick's Day. Allow the joy of celebration to shine today as you create your wish list for this new moon cycle! Allow yourself time during this new moon creation cycle to ease into spring. The Irish also celebrate Beltane Day on May 1st. This is roughly the halfway point between spring and summer. On Beltane Day, the fields were smudged to clear and release all the winter energy and the livestock was welcomed back into the countryside after spring cleanup and a long winter. Many bright moonBEams to all of you as we approach the equinox this week. Today we walk another step in the time web of life as we spiral through the energies of 2018. When we are aware of frequencies in our dimensional travels through life, there are certain days which carry a certain rhythm which amplifies the frequency. Any time there is a repeat in a numerical pattern, the frequency is amplified. The journey up the time spiral is measured each year beginning on New Year's Day. We begin anew on 1/1. As the month fades we again meet a mirrored number pattern on 2/2 and now 3/3. What are the important qualities of the number 3? As stated by Joanne Walmsley of Sacred Scribes: "Angel Number 3 encourages you to be communicative and social with others and to live your life with joy, optimism and spontaneity." When you review the additional vibration in 33 she notes: "Angel Number 33 is a message from your angels that any positive changes or projects you are considering right now will be well worth your while, and you will be assisted in the undertaking. Angel Number 33 gives you the courage to live your life with enthusiasm and optimism, safe in the knowledge that you are well blessed, loved and supported in all that you do. Live your life with joy, passion and purpose as this will manifest your true desires. Be prepared to expand and increase your spiritual development and awareness. When you consider this day has aligned right after a strong releasing full moon it is a clean slate for you to begin to allow the 3 vibration to support your journey. I am creating a new course and plan to continue it's creation today! I hope you each begin to realize that we embed all our creations with frequency. Today's frequency is extra special so embrace the day ahead and play with the incoming codes of light! We are entering March and exiting March with full moons. Another month with a full moon sandwich. The full moon is at direct alignment at 7:52 pm EST tonight, March 1st. This is the final full moon before the spring equinox. This moon is supporting your release of winter baggage that is no longer required to bring forth with our internal growing period. We are a mirror of nature. As we begin to stir and emerge from a deep rest of winter, what are you ready to shed? March is coming in like a lion. Consider looking to the animal spirit totem of the lion and see what resonates with your field. This full moon will be the blue moon as well as the worm moon. Worms dig deep, decomposing left overs into fertile earth to allow new seeds to sprout. You may feel your emotions are digging into the depths of your soul over these next few days. Rest assured the light of the moon is assisting to turn these releases into fertile ground to plant new seeds of growth.
May you all be blessed with a shower of MoonBEams that wash away the winter “blues”. |
