Cancer Wolf Full Moon Opposite Pluto: Yin Alchemy

 Happy Cancer Wolf Full Moon Dear Ones,

We are in another grand portal of magic, miracles and full
feeling with this Cancer Full Moon (exact tonight, Monday January
17 at 5:50 pm central) opposite Pluto, in the Venus Retrograde
and Mercury Retrograde period, with Uranus stationing direct
tomorrow and the Lunar Nodes shifting from Gemini/Sagittarius to
Taurus/Scorpio--something that only happens every 18.6
years!

This is a period where the yin approach of creating greater space
for stillness, time in nature, meditation, journaling, self
reflection, daydreaming, nurturance of self and other will yield
the greatest benefits over time.  As will simple messing
around just for the fun of it with no agenda except to try new
things that make you smile!

As a dear friend of mine, intuitive Julie Brown remarked so
wisely in a chat last week, the new year doesn't REALLY begin
until the Chinese New Year in early February (which of course is
also the Imbolc/Candemas Cross Quarter).

I hope you have had some time to slow down, to refresh and
reflect, to nourish your body, your soul, your psyche and your
heart.  If you have not yet, please consider doing so. It
will benefit you so greatly in your ability to truly offer
yourself over this coming year. 

It may seem paradoxical but in the midst of this larger period of
continued reflection and integration of 2021 and visioning into
2022 and beyond, we also have Venus rising as Morning Star now so
it IS important to INITIATE.  I see it as planting the first
seeds of our visions, beginning to set in motion the larger plans
we won't fully launch until February or beyond.

We are invited to move ever more fully into trust and flow,
allowing Spirit to inform us of next steps as they arise, taking
steady actions yet simultaneously continuing the undercurrent of
deep self care, listening, reflection and building our energy for
the months to come.

Missing the Last Podcast and Celebrating Accomplishments!
It was delicious, and a bit of a stretch!--to take a
pause from the podcast and bi-monthly emails for the Capricorn
New Moon, as I was in need of deep integration. This was the
first break I have taken from the podcast since I began in April
of 2020--since that time I have published 50 podcasts and
received 16,600 downloads!  Woo HOO! Celebrating that and
feeling so much gratitude for all of you out there for listening
and sharing!! I am so grateful to you!

I also realized I have been publishing a regular newsletter now
always at least twice a month *(initially weekly!), since
2008--that is 14 years this year!  I feel proud and happy to
have been able to offer this to you for all these years and
grateful beyond measure for the privilege and honor. 

I am in a phase of much internal and external change where I am
listening ever more deeply to the call of Spirit.  What I
know for sure is more collaborations, new offerings as Spirit
calls, and more on the ground weaving of Earth community here in
Missouri and in travel across Turtle Island.

Stay tuned and I share much more in my Podcast here!
