Letting Go Meditation
Closing your eyes and taking a nice deep breath. Allowing yourself to breath. To stop and take a moment for yourself. Noticing any heaviness or tiredness in your body as you breathe in and out. Relaxing your muscles and allowing them to let go. Just say to yourself, “I now allow myself to let go”. Every time we let go, we allow Spirit to help us. To take the burdens we are carrying. To restore responsibility back to its rightful place. To show us solutions to issues at hand. To enable us to feel reenergised. Now noticing that in front of you there is a circle. Within this circle appear things that are creating heaviness in your life. It may be activities, people, attachments or a certain situation. Take your time and notice the circle slowly filling with images, words and symbols that represent each thing that you need to let go of. Now imagine that you could wrap all these up together like one big present. Notice the colourful paper. Ask your spiritual helpers to assist you. They may even provide a pretty ribbon to tie it all together. Now see this big present being held in the palm of the Spirit’s hand. The Universe has got this. You don’t need to hold onto it anymore. You can let go. Allow Spirit to take this wonderful present from you and feel yourself lighten as you see it disappearing into the distant until it is no longer in sight. Feel your spiritual helpers sending you a wonderful Lightfilled energy to restore you to wholeness right now. Breathing it in, feeling it coming in through your breath. And with every in-breathe feeling yourself filling up with this wonderful resource. Feel this light expanding all throughout your body. Penetrating through your skin, from the outside to the inside. Feel it expanding outwards as you fill up. The more full you are with this light, the more you have to give. Feeling this dual effect of expansion and contraction with every in-breath. Breathing it in through your skin now. With every out-breath feeling it expand. As you breathe it in, you receive it. As you are breathing out, you give it. So you have this balance of the in-breath of receiving and the outbreath of giving. If there is anything in the way of receiving please let it go on the out breathe as well until you feel as if you are completely full of this wonderful loving Lightfilled energy. You have all you need right now. When you are ready open your eyes.

Full Moon’s signify a right of passage, spiritually, emotionally, and metaphysically. As above so below is one philosophy that takes precedence when it comes to our soul’s evolution. This aspect puts our male and female expression in opposition with the risk of projection. Spheres such as our planets, and asteroids, are created by light and sound and vibrate much higher than humans. They have earned the right to create and sustain life. We are downloaded with their essential codes at birth and activated by transits during important global cycles for our healing and evolution. This Full Moon chart is not only ruled by Scorpio Rising/Pluto but will be in quincunx to the ascendant in Scorpio/square Jupiter, Pluto, and Saturn. The Moon will then square Jupiter 1am on the 3rd, then Pluto 10am, conjunct Mars at 2pm, square Saturn 4pm. Each phase of the moon takes 3.5 days. What does this mean for the collective? It means we are being offered the opportunity to dig deep, look at our beliefs and paradigms both culturally and environmentally to find what requires reviewing, rebirthing and restructuring, both in our immediate neighbourhood and Globally. Its time to take action steps that will improve our daily lives and ensure that deep seated rage and anger is transformed and directed where it is most appropriate; for the necessary changes we require to move forward. Many will be tempted to unconsciously fall into old emotional habits and behaviours and may lash out, feeling victim to their circumstance, however this will only add fuel to the fire of humanities own creation. Humanities unprocessed, disowned anger, resentment, victim consciousness and entitlement projected into the field over centuries has finally manifested into our physical reality in the form of things we do not want. Remember, where focus goes energy flows, and our time is up. We must own our unconscious drives and be willing to restructure old outworn programs that can no longer sustain us in the current vibrational shift. This is a time to work on self at a deeper level than ever before. For those feeling spiritual growth and downloads, take the time to shut yourself away for a while, and give your mind, body and soul a chance to readjust to the new vibrations. Only self-reflection, study and open mindedness can support the release and growth you seek. NEW MOON IN LIBRA @23 Degrees 17 OCT 2020 | 5.31AM AEST
Two weeks after this energetic invitation we will be presented with the New Moon in Libra - Libra and Venus being the chart ruler. This puts the Luminaries together to bring about a peaceful union as we learn to harmonise and integrate our masculine and feminine side, while in deep contemplation. We must remember our outer world is a reflection(moon) of our Inner world or spirit (sun). We affect the planetary vibration and our subconscious drivers dictate how that will be for us. Over the following 4 hours the Luminaries will make a square aspect to Saturn, the lord of karma, time, and foundations. This will be a great time to go through the old patterns found on the full Moon that no longer serve and look at how it is dominating your decisions and actions. Apply what is happening now to your early family conditioning and look for patterns that have brought you your current results and be ready and willing to let go of these outworn beliefs. As Mercury will be in Scorpio in the 1st house, and in opposition to Uranus, the ruler of freedom, innovation, change and chaos, in the 7th, be conscious, and

aware of your thoughts and how you express them to others. There is an unstable energy driving these deep unconscious thoughts and Uranus is just the man to trigger projection and curve balls as humanity struggles to release the bond of resistance toward those who dare to think differently and challenge the status quo. The 1st of November is our Blue Moon month AEST while for EST it will sit in October. On November 1st, we flip back around to a fixed Moon and Sun opposition to review the Scorpio/Taurus frequency from another perspective. The Moon will be conjunct Earth and Uranus in Taurus, while in Opposition to the Sun and Vulcan in Scorpio. This brings us the opportunity to allow higher knowledge to download and ground. This will assist the anchoring of Uranian energy. Uranus rules our electrical nervous system. Please take care of yours and ground daily. Watch how fast many will change their views as this opposition over the next few days aspects Jupiter, Pluto, and Saturn, which bring to light what many are thinking but not asking or questioning. This semi harmonious energy will support the restructuring of rules, hidden agendas, and cultural beliefs that are unsupportive with a fresh new wave of energic earthing from spirit to matter. NEW MOON IN SCORPIO @23 Degrees 15 NOV 2020 | 3.07PM AEST This energy will be quite intense as the Luminaries are conjunct in Scorpio in the 8th house. Here I feel the uncertainty as humanity attempts to sort itself out. New Moons offer us the opportunity to set new standards, or reset past actions, feelings, and ways of being. Some will call for a total restructuring of government and laws while others will stay stuck in their old paradigms while projecting and resisting change. Those in power will not change easily or willingly. There is a lot of stuck energy in this set up. There may be a lot of rage coming out into the open. Many will speak out with vengeance while others attempt to keep the peace. With Neptune going through the 12th, there may be a bit of confusion around what the truth is as we attempt to uncover the depth of what is being offered by those in power. Neptune is in hard aspect to the south Node, pulling us back into the past to look at
I l l u s t r a t i o n s b y M a r t a M a d i s o n cultural paradigms that require reviewing and replacing. This is the age of technology and information, use it diligently, dig deep within, and observe your environment closely, do not get trapped in the delusion that allows those in power to use your confusion for control. If we are to create the change, we want to see in the world it must start with us. Stand up and be
counted. FULL MOON IN GEMINI @8 Degrees 30 NOV 2020 | 7.23PM AEST
This Full Moon is referred to as a Blue Moon. Here we are being offered the ability to sit in our subconscious from a lighter perspective and ask ourselves how we would like to live, based on our truth. Our quest is to find meaning and purpose of life here by reviewing past thoughts and actions. I know that our subconscious holds the key to our freedom. Perhaps it is time to really look at why we follow so willingly those concepts we know nothing about with blind faith. Perhaps this Full Moon is asking us to step up and really look at what we have created and why we settle for a community that is built on separation and delusion.
