Happy full moon!
Happy full moon everyone! It’s almost peaking…
The message has become clearer, for us women anyway, there is a theme of it being about us individually, going deeper, with love and respect and healing our wounds and loving and nurturing ourselves.
This is a big shift for us all this weekend, and if there is anything we still need to let go of, then today is the day to do it, tomorrow too if necessary.
I’ve been taken on a bit of an inner journey and it’s all become clearer where this was headed, towards greater self love and acceptance, so that we can be less burdened by our past. Clear about our yes and no and the values we have for our self and ensuring these are lived and indeed met.
The only person who can meet our needs is us each individually. This can be a bitter pill to swallow, especially if we are still stuck in the victim mind-set of blaming our parents for not having met our needs…they’ll never meet our needs. Not because they didn’t want to, but because they couldn’t, and that’s OK. very few of us were seen and heard in the way we craved. This is OK too. Once we accept this, it can be extremely liberating.
It does mean however that we have to step up though, and take care of our own needs, releasing ourselves from our victimhood of waiting for someone else to do it for us. Another person will not make us whole and to seek a partner for this reason merely feeds more of the illusion and keeps us trapped in the old paradigm of it all being outside ourselves. It isn’t. It’s in us.
Only we can love ourselves in the way we truly need and only we can make ourselves feel whole as we connect the self and Self. It’s not easy, which is the reason so many look outside of themselves for it and blame their parents, because this enables them to not step up and stay stuck instead - “it’s not my fault I cannot make my life work, this happened to me and ….’. Yep. Stuff happens. But at some point we have to find the courage to let it go and move on.
The trouble is, we’re scared of our power and our magnificence. We’re scared to be all of who w are because of our inherent fear of rejection, of being criticised, of not being accepted. But the thing is, if WE have accepted OURSELVES, it really doesn’t matter what anyone else thinks or says, because they’re opinion is merely that, an opinion, and opinions change. Why spend our whole life playing it small because we’re worried about what others think of us. Life is way too short.
This brings us back to the inner world, to bolster any fragile sense of self, any insecurity we have about who we are and what we are here to offer the world. but actually it’s more than that and it’s actually very simple, it’s about loving ourself. Looking in the mirror and being contented. Of seeing our naked form and accepting it. Of letting go of all the subtle and not so subtle negative self-chatter and laughing in the face of it. This is love and this is freedom and THIS is what the moon is bringing…the opportunity for greater freedom.
With that comes playfulness and prettiness, and just having a good old laugh. It can become a bit too serious on this spiritually-orientated path, we can take ourselves way too seriously. The moon wants spontaneity and fun, lighthearted and joyful dancing and an opportunity to soak in the moon’s healing and calming rays and just be.
Enjoy every single minute of it!
Enjoy the robin!
