Hello beautiful beings, I hope that this week you feel that you have more space to breathe!  We progressed into Autumn and into Libra Season, where our fixed judgements can be set aside, to breathe new life into fresh ideas and paradigms!  I am so excited to witness what will unfold! 

As I feel into the energy of October, there is a pull inward and then outward, like breathing.  In the northern hemisphere, we are moving into longer nights, less time with the sun.  One of the benefits is that we are called into home, and into ourselves, with more time to examine the outer world that you have been living in, and the ways it resonates with the inner realm...

The 'outer world' is created by the ways we relate and perceive.  Our relationships with our friends, family, work/life balance, money, movement, time all reflect the relationship we have with ourselves.  And so if the outer paradigm is not what you would wish...

This week is a profound one, so I wanted to spend some time walking you through the energies at play, so that you can dance with them, instead of fight against them!

We spent the past 2 weeks with watery Neptune flooding us with emotion, intuition, dreams.  Some of us have felt caught in storms, drowning, unable to breathe.  All of this, along with the Full Moon in Pisces (which is ruled by Neptune) has really highlighted our relationship with the water element, and the ways it influences/enhances our lives.

For those of you ready to dry out, I have good news!  On Wednesday we change seasons with the Equinox, and the Sun moves into Libra.  Let's break this down a bit...

At the Equinox, day and night are of equal length, which reminds us that we are neither all dark nor all light.  We are complex, layered, deep and interesting.  And though we often try to make things appear 'black or white', to simplify or ease our minds, life is rarely that...

Even though we've moved out of watery energy we've inhabited for most of March, many of us are still working with our current relationships, attempting to navigate the next steps. And the Libra Full Moon on Sunday is really going to help us to gain discernment on our alignments, or lack of.

When it comes to relationships, we can overcomplicate things, feel lost in the layers, overwhelmed by the moving parts. A relationship between 2 people also includes subconscious perspectives from their parents, siblings, grandparents, ancestral lines, community, cultural expectations, and influences from many differing points of view. You are a world interacting with another world. (And we wonder why it can feel difficult!)

I find that when decisions, understanding, or any other aspect of a relationship feels complex, the consistent answer is to strip it back to the core. And a core issue that surfaces repeatedly is a desire to belong. Brene Brown beautifully defines belonging, and what it is to...
