Earth & Moon The Great Space Holders - New Moon In Taurus
It’s nearing the end of another day, the sun is lowering in the sky, the birds are calming down, and there is that mystical glow that happens just before the sunset. It’s my favourite time to write, meditate, chant, rest and contemplate…..
Globally we are still going through a huge conscious shift as we navigate the world during this pandemic. Life as we knew it just over a year ago will never be the same again. During this rapid transition, we have had to navigate new territory, and everyone has experienced it in their own unique way. It’s been terrifying, peaceful, strange, heartbreaking, confusing, inspiring, deepening, unprecedented and transforming. So many diverse feelings and thoughts.
Throughout it all, the sun rose in the morning and set in the evening, just as it is now.
The moon waxed and waned through her cycles, month after month, holding her space so beautifully, an outer body rock for us all to lean on.
The seasons shifted from spring to summer, from autumn to winter and now to spring once more. The wheel turned full circle, oblivious to the metamorphosis taking place upon her. Mother Earth holding space for her children, steadfast, reliable and unwavering.
It is so easy to get caught up in the external world that us humans have created. The media reports, the confusing mixed messages, and the huge amount of information that is available to us all, 24/7, at the flick of a finger. Recently I realised I was picking up my phone, looking at Facebook, then Instagram, email, and then Whatsapp. Once satisfied, the phone would go down and I would resume with the task I had momentarily completely forgotten I was undertaking. Only to find that ten minutes later I was somehow repeating this cycle again! Madness! Caught up in the external world, taken away from the beauty of the moment, and transported into someone else’s life or mind.
So I made these promises to myself this new moon, as the sun set in the sky:
I let go of unhealthy patterns, that leave me feeling depleted, and disconnected to my true nature
Walking barefoot on the earth everyday, taking conscious deep breaths, in rhythm with the heartbeat of our Mother, is a priority
Expressing my gratitude to the Earth and the Moon for being my rock during these turbulent times, is a daily prayer
I will always endeavour to look to see the bigger picture, the bird’s eye view, one that is spacious, kind and freedom seeking in all situations. I will forgive myself and others when this has not happened
I commit to my spiritual practices everyday, so that I may be the best version of myself, for myself, my loved ones and every living being in this universe
I invite you to write your own new moon list, and share with the Luna Rhythms Yoga community so we can inspire and lift each other up.
It’s so easy to get lost in it all. But we are all blessed with a steadfast, unshakeable rock beneath our feet. Our home! She is our anchor to everything, and a place we get to experience all that we do, in our one life.
The waxing and waning of our days, weeks, months, and years all happen under one moon. Never getting tired of holding her majestical light in the infinite darkness of space.
For these graceful, unspeakably magnificent space holders, I am forever your humble servant. May I serve you with my heart open, and may all my actions support your wellbeing, now and forever more.
Thank You, thank you, thank you.
If you have been feeling lost in the sea of wifi, the shifting global crisis, or wondering how you are ever going to let go of the impending feeling of doom when you wake up each morning, I may be able to support you. I want to learn from my teachers, Earth and Moon, and so I am here to hold space for you too. To share the insights, teachings and knowledge that has been passed down to me, that have helped me navigate, much more easefully, the stress, love, heartbreak, joy, and tears that have flowed through the seasons of my life and my business.
I have opened up my calendar for anyone that would like to connect with me about anything at all. I will listen, hold space and carry you through whatever is present for you now. I can be your rock. I hope you will leave feeling connected, natural and empowered, as I do when I commune with my great teachers: Earth and Moon.
