New Moon Ritual

In modern astronomy, the New Moon is when the Sun and Moon are aligned,with the Sun and Earth on opposite sides of the Moon.

How to Perform a New Moon Ritual

The New Moon is a time for planting new seeds of our desires

The New Moon is the birthing cycle of the Moon's various phases. It is also an opportune time to attract your heartfelt longings by doing a Moon Ritual focused on what you wish to manifest.

The New Moon is an optimal time for planning and setting your intentions. Seedlings need a period of gestation before they break through the soil and reach for the sunlight. This is also true for cultivating our ideas and clearing the way for our visions to surface and become our new reality.

The dark side of the Moon, with its mysterious unseen forces, offers a nurturing environment where our longings can establish roots. These miraculous manifestations begin to sprout and reach out to the stars as the Moon continues its cycle.
Moon Ritual for Birthing Your Wishes and Desires
Prepare for your New Moon Ritual in advance by setting aside a few minutes each month during the new moon phase to focus on your wishes. This will help give you clarity of mind and fill your heart with promise.

When it comes to setting goals or planning ahead for your future, there is no better time to get started than during the New Moon.

cleansing breaths, play some meditation music or leisurely sip on a cup of relaxing herbal tea.No matter your approach, the goal is to clear your mind, calm your body, and remain in the moment. The now is all that matters and mindfulness on the ritual before you is your priority.

To fully align ourselves with our goals and intentions while we release ourselves from all that no longer serves us and from anything that is holding us back from stepping into our Wild and Sacred Power.

Awake in the Dark hours makes for a much different person.

 

Below is linked an article to read regarding the IQ levels of Night Owls.  I probably don't qualify because I have a very special Mary Time... it is not on their scale.  Safe to say I feel I am breaking the barriers my way.  Reading this has spurned me on to write about this as well.  I too love the Night hours and respond similar to what was written in the article. 

The unusual magnetic powers wielded by the moon have long been the source of the bent stories proffered by those wanting to demonize those who dare to challenge the status-quo.   The 28 days of the moon cycle which is directly linked to women and the menstrual cycle is not a coincidence and if you believe it is then you have a lot to research.  So yes the Moon in Hermetics is the balance of the energy of the Sun.

It is true the moon does have a different magnetic energy to that of our star (Sun).  Firstly, it is purely a reflected light we see, so it is like we are seeing the shadows of everything.  Seeing that which is unseen or unspoken of was reserved for the dark hours.   Secondly, there is good reason, for this was well known by the likes of Pythagoras and Plato and Leonardo Da Vinci and those great men of the past who were the great thinkers of their time, who labored long into the wee hours plying their trade.

Plants need moon energy just as much as they need sun energy.  That tiny fact say's it all.   Because, if plants need this then it would be fairly safe to assume humanity may need similar energy to accommodate the spirit in its walk here on Earth. 

I often speak of balance, operating out of both sides of the brain.  Understanding Zen, and understanding that people have a lower and higher nature and its a choice from which one operates.  This can be greatly assisted by understanding this balance in all things.  Understanding that all things operate on a polar line.  This is the truth of Namaste as well.  Understanding the beloved enemy.. is like loving the dark and scary as well as the warm and bright.

All of this thought is from those dark hours of research and reading.  However I probably don't qualify according to the article because I do go to bed very very early in fact... much earlier than most for some one who is not a shift worker.  I do this because I have a full day in the Garden and I love the energy of night so I go off early so I wake at 3am.  There is still some four hours of beautiful darkness for me to have my time.  Time I can think and make a coffee and take it outside and look at the stars in solitude, no prying eyes watching as you gaze skyward in hope of seeing something even more spectacular than what is already visible above.  I write poetry at this hour.  I think about my children at this hour and I think about the entire universe at this hour.

When the moon is not seen with the sun on the fourteenth day of Adar, the day will complete Nisan.' And this is interpreted to mean that that month of Adar would contain thirty days.

Do you tell your eyes to blink?

Another Blood (Full) Moon

Image Source Flickr: John Quong

When one has a realization that you don't tell your eyes to blink, then you begin to understand that this almighty infinite consciousness of the universe needs no boss either (like us) to make it do what it has to do. This is self generating with the principals of gender infusing all things to the left and right of us.

Today the Earth got in between the Moon and the Sun. Seems its Earths turn at this again.  The Earth's shadow consists of two parts:

• a dark inner core called the "umbra,"

• a lighter outer part called the "penumbra."

Rather than being really dark, this inner shadow is tinted an orange or red colour by light passing through the ring of atmosphere surrounding the Earth.  This is why they name these special moons "Blood Moons".

This total eclipse of the full moon today lasted less than five minutes. This makes it the shortest total lunar eclipse of the 21st century.

Legends told around the subject of blood moons always tell that it is an omen.

The Blood Moon Prophecy is a theory studied and taught by some Christian ministers, such as John Hagee and Mark Biltz, which states that an ongoing tetrad (a series of four consecutive lunar eclipses coinciding on Jewish Holidays with six full moons in between, and no intervening partial lunar eclipses) which began with the April 2014 lunar eclipse is a sign of the end times as described in the Bible in Acts 2:20 and Revelation 6:12.  Wikipedia

A clever sky above!

This is a very exciting time above us in the sky! The energies generated by these planetary movements should not be discounted by anyone as it effects you all. You sort of can't actually stop this because it is governed by true law, we refer to this as Natural Law of which there are seven natural laws. Not sure the tinfoil hat will do any good to the cold and heartless who turn away and smirk. Unlucky! is all i can say because that attitude from the heart generates a resonate frequency the universe recognizes .. just saying! I would be careful during this time as the energy is very strong.

Spring Equinox Supermoon solar eclipse: Rare celestial phenomenon will make March 20 even more special 

March 20th 2015, the moon will cover the sun resulting in blocking approximately 98 % of the light from the sun.   

On the evening of the 19th March the Earth and Moon will be as close together as these two can possibly get to each other and this will cause the phenomenon called the "Supermoon".  There was a super moon when I was at Uluru and the moon was simply huge and pink and Perigee.

Gemini Full Moon and for a house full of geminis that means Party.

It was a Gemini full moon and Victoria is set to announce its new laws on Gay Marriage.
The days leading up to this full moon have been dotted with storms both in the sky and down here on the ground with so much being in two minds.

There was a faint rainbow in the halo of light coming from the moon.

December the sixth Gemini full moon is specifically a gift from the universe. Its time to let the hair down and lighten the load endeavour to make good use of this time and have an uplifting time with good friends or family.  Its a great time to have a get together or party, Gemini full moons are a successful moon for these occasions.  Emotions will be running high so keep this in check and it will be alright.

Gemini Full Moon over Urunga

What Astrologers say:

The Power Path

Full Moon in Gemini maximizes the qualities of fire and air. It's an enthusiastic time of increased activity and connection. We feel the urge toward expansion, looking at a bigger picture and finding our place in the mythic story of life with Jupiter in Leo ruling the Sun in Sagittarius.

When Gemini energy is at its fullest and the Moon peaks in this sign, our minds are titillated, and gathering information and making connections lights up all our circuit boards and that makes us feel alive!

The Blood Red Moon - October 2014

 

From Wikipedia

A Lunar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes directly behind the Earth into its umbra (shadow). This can occur only when the Sun, Earth, and Moon are aligned (in "syzygy") exactly, or very closely so, with the Earth in the middle. Hence, a lunar eclipse can only occur the night of a full moon. The type and length of an eclipse depend upon the Moon's location relative to its orbital nodes.

Unlike a solar eclipse, which can only be viewed from a certain relatively small area of the world, a lunar eclipse may be viewed from anywhere on the night side of the Earth. A lunar eclipse lasts for a few hours, whereas a total solar eclipse lasts for only a few minutes at any given place, due to the smaller size of the moon's shadow. Also unlike solar eclipses, lunar eclipses are safe to view without any eye protection or special precautions, as they are dimmer than the full moon.

Eclipses in the Sky over Australia in 2014

 2014 will be an interesting time up in the sky above us here in Australia .  There will be two total eclipses of the Moon and a partial eclipse of the Sun.

The first event is a  Moon eclipse in April  on the and people all over Australia will see a predicted  shade of  red, and fully eclipsed Moon rising in the eastern sky.   This will be a sight to behold when this happens.  We see the physical evidence of the universes power with our own eyes.   This is calculated on Sydney time

Moonrise	15 Apr at 5:27 PM	102°	0.0° below	Not directly visible	Under horizon
Maximum Eclipse	15 Apr at 5:46 PM	99°	3.3°		Moon is closest to the center of the shadow. Moon close to horizon, so make sure you have free sight to East.
Total Eclipse ends	15 Apr at 6:23 PM	95°	10.7°		Total moon eclipse ends.
Partial Eclipse ends	15 Apr at 7:32 PM	85°	24.6°		Partial moon eclipse ends.

Reality and Thoughts.

Reality is made up of particles all held together in wave forms due to the thought projection of the mental universe. The best way to visualize this is how we see sand particles move into different geometric shapes on a board depending on what resonance is used, as in Cymatics.

Sand and Sound made this shape

When this understanding is applied to the hermetic law of the mental universe we understand that the mental projection is resonance and light projected in wave form from the galactic core through the minds eye of Orion and finally brings us into existence on the material realm through the transmutation of energy of the sun and the moon.

The Sun is the projection of Gods consciousness and the Moon is the birth-er of souls and the souls are birthed through the naval energy center.

The truth that was once hidden from us can now be revealed but we must use this knowledge wisely and for the betterment of all mankind.  We must use this wisdom to enable us to be the fullness of who we were meant to be from time immemorial

 This is a small excerpt from Thyalwaysseek please watch Dee's Video for the full length Mystery Teachings of Ancient Egypt Immortality Reality Shifts and Orion video here below for a better understanding and also take the time to watch the complete series of Mystery Teachings of Ancient Egypt.

August Sports Blue Moon Antics.

Its a FULL Aquarius BLUE MOON ... It goes full at 11.45am tomorrow morning.  So in the morning before it goes down in the west it will be very big and beautiful to see.

If you try hard you can hold the moon between your fingers

 When the Moon is in Aquarius, the interest in new, unconventional ventures increases, and your head is congested with original ideas. During these days you could be selfish, blunt, but you will not refuse help.

Full Moon from my back door

Indulge in science and intellectual work, and also work, connected with society (psychology, sociology, astrology).  Getting down to tin tacks ( to the knitty gritty) by having deep and meaningful conversations with friends is favorable during this Aquarius moon phase.

The period is good for the people who work with electricity, electronics, technology, researchers and astrologists.

When the Moon is in Aquarius, the friends take precedent over the relatives. Empathy, Sympathy, love and affection and a careful attitude towards people reaches  way beyond the family unit.

The "Moon in Aquarius" time is favorable for activities and sport, that strengthen the cardiac-vascular system.

 If you are  handling electrical appliances at home take a lot of care and attention with this task.

Veins, joints, eyes are vulnerable and so surgery to these areas should be avoided around this time.

The Super Moon comes to Urunga!

June 2013 presents the moons closest encounter with Earth until August 10, 2014, at which time the moon will be a scant 5 kilometres closer to Earth.

The full moon will come even closer to Earth on September 28, 2015 and closer yet on November 14, 2016.

November 2016 will feature the closest full moon until November 25, 2034.

The closest full moon of the 21st century will fall on December 6, 2052.

For the moon to come closer than 356,400 kilometres (221,457 miles) is quite a feat. In fact, this won’t happen at all in the 21st century or the 22nd century.

The last time the full moon swung this close to Earth was on January 14, 1930 (356,397 km), and the next time won’t be till January 1, 2257 (356,371 km).

All full moons bring higher-than-usual tides, and close full moons bring the highest (and lowest) tides of all. Each month, on the day of the full moon, the moon, Earth and sun are aligned, with Earth in between. This line up creates wide-ranging tides. High tides climb up especially high, and on the same day low tides plunge especially low.

Bottom line: The full moon of June 22-23, 2013 is the closest and largest full moon of this year. There are three full moons in 2013 that meet the definition of a super moon – May, June and July. But this June 22-23 full moon is the most super of the super moons.

What makes a moon a super Moon? Being one arc minute larger than last months Full moon which was also called a super moon.

On the 23rd of this month June 2013 we will have a super moon again and everyone is discussing the facts surrounding this  and making plans to so some special things in recognition of this.  I acknowledge the power of this moon.

 A ‘Super Moon’ 30% brighter than an average Full Moon’s brightness will occur on Sunday 23 June 2013 (at 9:32 pm AEST). The Moon will appear larger than any other Moon of 2013 as June’s Full Moon occurs within 32 minutes of the Moon’s closest approach to the Earth for the year.
I have seen some saying this year we will have two super moons.  One in May and one in June.

The reason for the increase in the apparent size of the Moon has to do with the Moon’s egg shaped or elliptical orbit. There is approximately a 50,000 kilometre difference between when the Moon is at its closest (perigee) and it’s furthest from the Earth (what is referred to as apogee). June 2013′s Full Moon will occur at almost the same time as the closest approach of the Moon to the Earth for the year at a mere 356,991 kilometers.

For South East Queensland, king tides for 2013 will occur the day after June’s ‘Super’ Moon as the Earth’s oceans respond to the pull of the Moon’s gravity. The next ‘Super’ Moon will occur on 10 August 2014.

More information about ‘Super Moons’ can be found on Wikipedia.

Note that the News.com.au story Brighten up, the super moon is on the way about 2013′s Super Moon occurring in May 2013 is factually incorrect.
The apparent size of the Full Moon for June 2013 is larger than May’s by one arc minute (confirmed by referring to the highly recommended Sky Safari Pro tablet app).    Via Nigh Sky Online

The Sun gives off a fast energy.

The energy and radiation given off by the sun is a very fast energy.  Our bodies simply crave this type of energy.  On another note the body also needs the slow lunar energy that is given off by light hitting the moon and beaming down on us that way especially during the full moon.
The Suns power to use the Moon is such a way to evoke such high tides etc is also proof the CME's emitted by the sun have a marked effect on the timing of Earthquakes in some places>

Given that Earthquakes are now largely man made from the process of mining called Hydraulic Fracturing it is difficult to know which one is causing the quake.  No CME then it is a mining incident.  CME  it is the Sun that caused the Quake.  Its a hypothesis worth looking at.   All involving the study of Electromagnetic Energy.  I constantly hear that we live in an electric universe.

When the power of love overcomes the love of power, the world will know peace.

   SRI CHIMNOY GHOSE

This  morning, a Full Moon Lunar Eclipse occurs. Lunar Eclipses are about relationships and polarities. With the Gemini-Sagittarius axis involved, this Lunar Eclipse presses us to look more closely at our needs, lacks, and wants in our lives concerning the balance between Gemini-ruled and Sagittarius ruled areas of life.
It occurred to me that it is paramount to stop these wars.  War is so childish and immature.   People are so brutal to each other.   I just don't understand the anomaly of not bullying at school but it is alright for our so called leaders to participate in bully activities in front of us and our children.

 "Everything flows, out and in; everything has its tides; all things rise and fall; the pendulum-swing manifests in everything; the measure of the swing to the right is the measure of the swing to the left; rhythm compensates." — The Kybalion.

We have had the pleasure of a full moon in Libra this time and its a young moon and it is getting bigger again.  Friday was lovely / Saturday morning in the west was spectacular and last night was amazing.

When the Moon is in Libra, the desire for harmony, tact, justice, relationship with people, balance, impartiality, partnership increase. I was so balanced in my hunt for this shot. I was organised with times equipment and places. I had covered myself with some repellent this time because it was such a special moon.   Indeed we were not disappointed.

This was our gift for ISHTAR / the moon excites me like the sun and in doing so I am very childlike before such entities and I know in my heart that we are beings of light.  We are here on this Earth plane for a season.  There are many seasons in a lifetime of forever.
