СКАЧАТЬ back and place your hands gently on your knees.

       Ground yourself with the floor and gently extend your spine as you inhale. Imagine light flooding through the crown of your head.

       With your eyes closed, take deep breaths through your nose and fill your lungs with oxygen. Pause and hold your breath for a few seconds.

       Slowly exhale all of the air from your lungs through your nose, creating a gentle ‘oceanic’ sound in the back of your throat.

       Repeat this practice for two to three minutes.

      Aspiration/mantra: Let it go!

      Full Moon in Cancer (19.21)

      The Full Moon is the time to release and let go of any habits, people or situations that don’t serve our hearts, minds or higher purpose. Also, this Full Moon is what’s known as an ‘Appulse’ eclipse, when the Moon is obscured by the Earth’s shadow. It is this lack of light that, perhaps, awakens us and allows us to recognize our own shadow side. I believe that there is no more powerful time to face our demons and, in doing so, release them to the light.

      In days gone by, when we were all God-fearing people, eclipses were seen as bad omens. They are extremely powerful and, for this reason, monks in many Buddhist monasteries in the East take vows of silence at this time, believing that the karma is magnified under the Full Moon; they pray and meditate for world peace.

       Write down all of the aspects of yourself, or your life, that you wish to release, such as ‘I want to release: my anxiety, my aversion to fitness, toxic relationships’. You can ask the Moon Goddess to help you to surrender, release and move on!

       Burn your list (safely) under the magnificent force of the Full Moon. Ask for help from the unseen forces; have faith, trust that all is well and know that there is an underlying plan.

      This will be a double impact, as the Moon governs the sign of Cancer. Watch out for people overreacting today; stay calm, calm others and breathe deeply. You have the power to transform this energy into empathy, affinity and great kindness. Because you have the knowledge!

      Sunday 12th January

      Saturn forms an exact conjunction to Pluto in Capricorn today, causing an extraordinary energy surge for us all. You may feel the need to reassess your goals and commitments in life, but this surge is more geared towards Capricorn and, to a lesser degree, Scorpio. Both planets trigger the need for profound transformation and rebirth. To be able to do this smoothly, forgive, forget and find new ways to operate.

      Reflections …

      If you managed to complete this week’s mission, how did it make you feel?

      If you skipped on anything, did you feel any different?

      Did the Full Moon impact you?

      How did the week’s aspiration unfold? Did it help you to remember to breathe more, or become aware of when you, or another, over-reacted?

      List a few things, or even just one, that you are grateful for.

      Are there any takeaways from this week that you would like to address next week? Try reflecting without judgement.

      Monday 13th January–Sunday 19th January

      Forecast

      Mercury moves into Aquarius this week, ushering in powerful, high-vibrational and exhilarating energy.

      The best use of the week is to align with the higher mind, as Aquarius is working steadfastly for the shift in consciousness, sending sacred wisdom to remind us of who we really are. These cosmic downloads lift us out of a purely worldly existence and help us to realign with the collective consciousness and, indeed, our true selves. Busy minds cannot capture the above, though. When your phone’s memory or computer’s hard drive is full, it simply cannot receive or retain any new information, and it’s the same with your mind. So, if you wish to attune to, hear, feel and use the knowledge provided by Aquarius, spend time alone, meditate daily and do not get caught up in trivia. Although the week is likely to be busy and brimming with exciting opportunities, allow yourself some freedom from the rat race and time to be quiet.

      Uranus, the ruler of Aquarius, is flowing forwards and because it’s in the earth sign Taurus we need to steady its electric flashes and keep our feet on the ground. I’ve said this before, but daily meditation and Yoga, or perhaps Qi Gong, will protect you and keep you in tune with your mind, body and soul. Uranus is the master of the unexpected and likes to send surprises that invigorate and cause shocks of electric energy. Being steady will protect you and help you enjoy the opportunities for learning that the week ahead will provide.

      In addition, Venus moves into Pisces, which is a sensitive, gentle and mellow sign at its best. Pisces ‘gone right’ sees clearly, avoids toxins, including alcohol, and stays present in the wonder of the moment. So this can be an amazing week for creative expression. To avoid Virgo ‘gone wrong’, which potentially impacts at the beginning of the week and heightens anxiety, a total clear-out is advised. Prepare for the week ahead as much as you possibly can and, on a practical level, arrange your work and home space in order to ‘feel’ organized. Go through paperwork, pay bills and recycle. Venus shifting into Pisces on Monday lightens up the Virgo vibe, but it’s prudent to heed the above before allowing Pisces ‘gone right’ to flood the senses with feel-good СКАЧАТЬ
