New Moon in Gemini

New Moon in Gemini June 12, 2010 4:14 am pdt

This month the New Moon enters the airy, mutable sign of Gemini, the twins. If you’re looking for fun and games this moon then you won’t be disappointed! Gemini tries hard to keep it light and entertaining. During your New Moon Meditation allow yourself to sink into wonder, curiosity and awe. Remember to keep it simple because the mood you’re after is fun, childlike, light and playful so if you’re feeling heavy, serious and weighty then you know you’re not on the  Gemini carousel ride. You may also be feeling a little distracted or even bored right now, so make sure and keep things interesting by tuning into the child within, the part of you that remembers what joy felt like, in the beginning.

On June 12th when the New Moon enters Gemini get ready to: - Seek the unexpected - Flood your sense with stimuli - Let your curiosity keep you on the move - Weave your social networks - Juggle tasks and cross-pollinate ideas

Introducing The Moon Muses

The Moon Muses are intuitive guides and question askers that offer insight and wisdom along with exercises to heal and inspire you. They are creative leap takers forming a glowing moonlit bridge between your rational self and your higher self, a self that dwells in pure intuition, clairvoyance (clear seeing), meditative reflection and dreaming. This month you will meet Agate, a Gemstone Muse and a Lefty Oracle Muse by the name of Guess, Poet. I encourage all of you to create a Moon Musing Journal to record your monthly moon explorations (more about this in my new eCourse, Awaken Your Divine Feminine Soul).

A Message from Agate

With this multi-hued stone as your ally, get ready to make some delightful mischief and stir things up in the name of Fun! Can you feel this Moon reaching out to you with her long, shimmering, moonlit fingers as she points right at you and says, “You, ya you!”

(Suggested musical ambiance ~ “What I Am” by Edie Brickell). Now, stay wide awake for this part because you don’t want to miss anything!

Wake-You-Up Gemini-Style Suggestions: - Feather dusting (to loud music) - Nuts anyone? - Running and giggling at the same time - Jumping over things - Disco dancing - Tickling or being tickled - Rhyming - Tasting something new for the first time – how ‘bout seaweed? Yum!

My Version of Gemini – Guess, Poet "Guess, Poet" is part of a series of 500 or so left-handed (my non-dominant hand!) drawings I created over a period of five years. These drawings were later turned into an oracle card deck that I use for giving Soul Readings.

Guess, Poet celebrates fertile minds and minds that love to share EVERYTHING with EVERYONE! What three things do you absolutely love about yourself? 1.

Take a moment to assign a color to each of these things and pick a symbol or secret code to represent each one.

Create a Poetically Designed Happiness-Reminder Fun Card

Take all these elements; your favorite things, their colors and their symbols, and turn them into your own personal business-style fun card to remind yourself of what happiness looks like and feels like!

Kathy is currently teaching  “Awaken Your Divine Feminine Soul” at the Wise Woman University. “Celebrating the lunar cycles is an important part of building a spiritual framework. Each month we can tune into her cycles to keep ourselves on track. At the new moon we plant our intentions for the month ahead, at the full moon we watch them flower, and at the waning moon we release and share our wisdom with the world. As women we are naturally able to resonate with these cycles in deep and meaningful ways.

Full Moon Fruition Collage

To get things rolling for my brand new course - Awaken The Divine Feminine- which just debuted on this New Moon, March 15, 2010 I'm going to be sharing some ideas that are a part of this course such as the Full Moon Collage (pictured here) and the New Moon Collage I created this self study course especially for women to help awaken, inspire and engage your passionate, intuitive, creative selves through the creation of a Moon Musing Journal, Moon Collages and Moon Musing Exercises in honour of the new, full and waning moons.

I believe that the moon can help guide and challenge us to know and resonate with our instinctual, emotional selves in a balanced, harmonious and soulful way.

The course will start on the new moon of each month and includes four lessons plus a supplemental Moon Musing email specifically geared to the zodiac sign that the moon falls in for that particular month. My course is offered through the Wise Woman University which has lots of other interesting and goddess-oriented self-study programs as well, so stop on over and check things out!

If you have any questions about the course, please let me know and I'll be happy to respond here or via email.

Libra Full Moon Collage - the Fire Bird Rises!

This is for the the Divine Female within all of us - she is Goddess unbound, unfettered, free. She knows the blood mysteries, worships the moon and calls upon no man to complete her. She stands alone yet united with women everywhere, strong and capable of earning her way in the world, healing her sorrows, tasting her joys, and feeling one-ness with the All.

I celebrate this Full Moon in Libra with simplicity and simple pleasures. My Full Moon Collage is a manifestation of all I believe in and am present to at this moment in time.

She is full tonight, the moon and I worship her beauty as I worship my own. Together we celebrate, as together we share our stories, our creations and our inner knowing.

Join with me, Divine Goddesses of the Moon as we come together to make magick, make merry and make our dreams and hopes manifest.

My collage consists of my recent painting Fire Bird, a Libran symbol (for me) of Cardinal fire and air. I have also incorporated the astrological symbol for Venus and within her circle have placed an Isis Goddess Crystal, then in the blood red ink of passion have scrawled out the script, and to finish things off have included a clipping from a recently planted native plant species called Ribes indecorum (great name!) which is a White Flowering Chaparral Currant.
