New Moon in Cancer

June 23

7:31 PM

New Moons are when both the Sun and Moon align in the same sign, offering us an opportunity to hit the re-set button, re-think and renew our ideas and commitments in the area where this alignment occurs. This month it is Cancer. So, our focus turns to home and family, belonging (or not) and what makes us feel safe and secure.

The comforts and familiarity of home and spending time in the garden or nature is pulling at our hearts! This is very instinctual pull, and can be a time of profound healing that takes place quietly deep within us as we allow our family……or……nature to make us feel loved, safe, and protected!

The impacts of this New Moon run deep, particularly since we have such strong planetary presence, (Mars and Mercury join the Sun and Moon) in this area of the Cosmos!

Our feelings will need attending too.

And, expressing them in loving, kind ways is our Best Practice!

Family, children, parents, generational issues, may resurface for you to take a look at and Heal.

Overall you may be quite emotional as this energy is very strong!

* Mercury is conjunct the Sun and Moon: Linking your consciousness with your soul/higherself. This allows us to bridge these two aspects more easily.

*Jupiter is a major player and is part of a t-square with Pluto and Mars

forming a quincunx with Neptune and Venus.

Meaning….. issues and conversations will be Magnified in some way. It’s important not to let them get blown up out of proportion! Keep focus on the positive side of situations, and a win win for all!

Here is a crystal grid for this New Moon to help Balance and calm these energies!

I am calling in the Love with Rose quarts for Jupiter in Libra, Moonstone to set a new beginning in Cancer, Labradorite for higher perspective, and of course Amethyst to calm and connect, along with Selenite! You can use any or all of these for your intention ceremony!

Let’s amplify Love for our Global Family!!!

As you prepare for your New Moon Ceremony…..Remember, this is special reset for the summer, your family and friends, taking time to enjoy, relax a bit, and plan some down time to take care of your self! The Summer Solstice was late on the 20th, and has long been celebrated as a turning point for the next 3 months! So this New Moon energy is extra powerful for manifesting what your heart desires!

And…if you are in LA….please join us for a powerful New Moon Ceremony, Sound Bath, Meditation at the AURA SHOP on Main St. Santa Monica! Details and sign up here http://aurashop.com/event/new-moon-ceremony-meditation-july/?instance_id=130

June 2017 Overview!

Posted on June 5, 2017 by Shelley Warren

Happy Birthday Gemini!

As we begin the month….the shifts just keep on coming! Interestingly…..this month they occur in 3’s, overlapping each other.

So let’s get into it….

June 4th- 7/20….. Mars into Cancer…Focus on the home-front! Emphasis will be on family and home. We will be feeling more emotional, vulnerable, and possibly nostalgic!

June 5th – 7/4….Venus into Taurus! Venus Rules the sign of Taurus, and she Loves her annual visit here! Emphasis now on sensuality/passion; your resources/finances; nurturing self and others, natural beauty!

June 6th- 6/21.… Mercury into Gemini! Also its ruling sign, he functions well here! This placement helps with clearer communication, processing info, and overall mental functions. Conversations and interactions are easier because you and other tend to be more open, adaptable and flexible!

Mars, Venus and Mercury are referred to as the “personal planets” because the are closest to Earth and they Rule areas of our daily life. They do change signs more often than the larger more distant Stars, but, it is rare when all 3 shift within 48 hours! These are not bad transits! Just note that these first few days the energy will feel a Unsettled,until each planet moves in to the sign!

The second group…..

June 9th Jupiter stations direct! Yippee! The planet of blessings and expansion has been resting that last 4 months, and when he turns direct, especially at the time of the full moon, things will feel bigger and more expansive than perhaps they really are. Jupiter’s high agenda is always to enlighten us with new insights and information, and it may be that whatever events are occurring now relate to this. Jupiter in Libra will likely bring attention to legal matters and courts as well as issues related to equality and justice. While retrograde it is likely that information was being gathered but not made available. Now, going direct, at the Full Moon, it is likely that this planet, who rules honesty, integrity, and courts, will be shinning a light on something important! ( Interesting that Comey is set to testify on the 8th…..hmmmmmmm!!!!!! )

June 9th …Full Moon in Sagittarius….Sagittarius is the Truth Seeker and the natural ruler of Jupiter! The emphasis now is on Truth and Honesty…..personally and collectively! Issues around power, control, exaggeration, and misinformation will be brought into the light! Be clear in how your speak your words and ideas, relating to just the facts, keeping an open mind to hear others opinions! More Details posted on the Full Moon page, along with info on our Full Moon Horseback ride and ceremony in Griffith Park

June 16th – 11/22….Neptune stations Retrograde.

While Neptune is in retrograde motion, it stimulates our inner process, assisting us to come to a better understanding of our own personal Spiritual Path. Best Practice …. spend time in meditation, learning, going on Spiritual retreats, and time in contemplation! Neptune, more than any other planet, holds our visions. Take time to dive into the mysteries, magic, and energy of the Divine, and Vision your highest life!

June 20th Sun into Cancer…Summer Solstice! A new season begins! It is a turning point where we look at the next 3 months and decide what’s next? How do we want to spend our time? Family, nature, gardening, nurturing ourselves and our community? Warm summer nights, long days, vacations, rest, relaxation?

Now is the time to plan it!

June 23rd….New Moon in Cancer!
Time to hit the reset button, and start a new cycle! This New Moon in Cancer is quite emotional, and will bring up family, home, how you nurture yourself and others….more details and your Ceremony on the New Moon page, and here is the link to our live Full Moon gathering at the AURA SHOP on Main Street….please join in if you are in LA

And finally…….The last few days of the month….. a little challenging!

6/27: Mercury squares Jupiter

6/28: Mercury conjuncts Mars

6/29 Mercury opposes Pluto

To make this easier to understand…the Keywords during this time: Transparency, disruption of some kind, impulsive behavior, conflicts, clashes, turning points, renewal and new beginning!!

In general, this is likely to be quite an emotional and intense time with a lot going on at a personal level, as well as the world stage. Some possible issues taking place are related to the abuse and misuse of power, and the revealing of hidden information. The underlying dynamic now wants truth and transparency. Jupiter in Libra will assist bringing strong energy to fairness, balance, and what is right and just!

Best Practice at this time line…….Slow down, pause before you react angrily or out of frustration, and be transparent, speak the truth, and seek win win solutions!

I have several great workshops planned this Summer from Full Moon rides on horse back, Astrology and Tarot workshops, to an amazing Spiritual Adventure in Costa Rica!

Please check my events page off for all the update!

Stay

Inspired….Connected….Empowered!

Peace and Blessings

Full Moon in Scorpio May 10th..Wesak Festival of the Buddha!

Posted on May 2, 2017 by Shelley Warren

Full Moon in Scorpio @20*

Wesak Moon, Festival of Buddha

May 10th @2:42 PM

Full Moons occur when the Sun and Moon are in opposite signs. It is a time when what is hidden comes into the light, and we seek to BALANCE any energy that is hidden or needs to be released!

Every year when the Sun is in Taurus and the Full Moon is in Scorpio, the annual descent of the Buddha takes place. It is quite a mystical and magical Full Moon, and one that allows us to receive much needed love, compassion, guidance, and blessings from our Spiritual Masters in the ethical realm.

Esoteric teachings tell us that there are Great Master of Light and Sound residing in the Himalayas in a mystical valley called Shamballa,a scared place that doesn’t’ quite exist in the physical realm, but rather in the etheric.The Wesak Festival is generally known as the Festival of the Buddha. In legend, full of imagery, He is said to make an annual appearance at exact time of the full moon in Scorpio. He appears for a brief period and enacts a water ceremony before his great brother, the Christ, and an assembly of Spiritual disciples. It is said that these Masters descend from Shamballa to bless mankind with their grace, and to offer guidance^!

The potency of the Buddha’s presence is such that it cannot be endured for long by the assembled group. The moment of His approach is characterized by a great Silence, said to be brimming with vitality and significance. The Buddha’s blessing, stepped down by the Christ, is radiated throughout the gathering and into the world.

During this Spiritual high point of the year our greatest service is to prepare ourselves spiritually for the energy pouring into humanity, and to hold the inner connection in daily life, visualizing ourselves as a pure channel of light . The goal to live consciously within the aura of the spiritual group to which our soul naturally belongs.

During this special time, we all receive the flow from the Buddha, into our human hearts and minds, unifying, lifting and revealing our Spiritual connection and destiny!

Please join Linda Lightfoot and me for a very special Full Moon gathering as we honor and receive the Blessings of the Buddha and many other Spiritual Masters!

Place:Mothers Beach in Marina del Rey ( in front of Jamaica Bay Inn)

Time:7 to 9 PM

Ceremony Includes:

Astro overview, meditation, essential oils, crystals, and amazing Full Moon Buddha Light!

Cost: $25 ( please bring $ or sign up on line on the events page)

RSVP Required!

This is a Very Very Very Special time and Gathering!

If you can’t join in person, please go out and sit under the Moonlight and imagine Shamballa and receive your blessings from the Buddha and the Spiritual Hierarchy!

Crystals to use:your Moonstone, and Malachite for it’s trans formative powers! I Would also include Rose quartz for Love and Compassion, Herkimer Diamond for Clear Connection, and any other crystal that wants to come. Also, it is a great practice to place your crystals out in the moonlight….particularly this one! They love it and will soak in all this great Cosmic energy for you!

Astrologically….this is quite a beautiful line up of energy!

The Scorpio energy will bring focus to your money, finances, power or empowerment around power, sexuality, sensuality and intimacy. Self worth and your values will come to play.

There will be a lot of passionate energy flying around which can either be very motivation and inspiring or overwhelming and chaotic! You will want to watch out for and release any jealousy obsessions, watch out for impulsive purchases that create future debt, and misusing power that is given you….Karma is watching!

Best Practice:

*Tap into the benevolent energy of the Wesak moon by asking the Spiritual hierarchy to bring you strength,clarity and protection!

*Open yourself to RECEIVING the abundance of Universal Grace that is present!

* Ask How can I best boost my self esteem?

*What resources are available that I can use more efficiently?

*What empowers me…what can I release that dis- empowers me?

*How can I empower those around me?

This is the opportunity to get really honest with where you are, where you want to go, and call in the Spiritual Hierarchy to assist!

Ask and it is Given!!!

Sending you all Love, Compassion, Abundance and Peace

Stay

Inspired….Connected….Empowered!

May 2017 Overview!

Posted on May 2, 2017 by Shelley Warren

Happy Birthday Taurus!

As we enter May, I am happy to say that Mercury goes direct on the 3^rd Yippee!! It has been a tough 3 weeks, but things, ideas, and situations will begin to make much more since! We have a beautiful Mercury/Uranus connection that holds for the first 2 weeks of the month and will assist in guiding us in new, powerful, directions made clear by the Mercury retrograde three week review!

The Sun, being in the sign of Taurus thru May 20th, will bring our attention and focus to our money, finances, abundance, or lack, and values! The Bull also encourages us to nurture, maintain, and cultivate all the things we love most!

This is a pretty exciting month with many possibilities! It won’t be a complete walk in the Roses, but great, solid progress can be made! Here are the Key events to mark your calendar:

May 3^rd…. Mercury Stations Direct at 24* Aries!

Mercury rules all forms of communication and links things together, mentally. During the 3 weeks of Rx, the mind turns inward more naturally. This allows for subtle, yet significant shifts to take place, through recognizing them can be tricky!

Here are a few indications about what is occurring on the inner realm:

You have more aha moments than usual.
You gain understanding around something that has perplexed you.
You remember something that once had meaning, and is now relevant!

Also on the 3^rd, as Mercury turns direct, he is conjunct Uranus! This is an awesome aspect! Uranus rules the higher mind, while Mercury rules the lower mind, and when they kiss, the link between them is amazing, allowing for brilliant insights, innovative ideas and solutions!

Mystical, magical experiences abound!

Expect synchronicities and coincidences! They are meant to bring pieces of info that will empower, and move you forward.

Be sure to write down any ideas, thoughts, or chance meetings. Remember, this is a link from your higher self to your lower self.

Ask questions, and be ready to receive amazing info from your higher self and the Cosmos and download the information!

(This aspect holds for the first 2 weeks of the month!)

And, as a precautionary note…please recheck all the appointments and plans you made during the last three weeks, making sure everyone is still on the same page! Always best to be safe, not sorry!

May 10th Full Moon in Scorpio….Wesak Full Moon…Festival of Buddha!!

Esoteric teachings tell us that there are Great Master of Light and Sound residing in the Himalayas in a mystical valley called Shamballa….a scared place that doesn’t’ quite exist in the physical realm, but rather in the etheric realm.The Wesak Festival is generally known as the Festival of the Buddha. In a legend, full of imagery, He is said to make an annual appearance at exact time of the full moon in Scorpio. He appears for a brief period and enacts a water ceremony before his great brother, the Christ, and an assembly of Spiritual disciples. It is said that these Masters descend from Shamballa to bless mankind with their grace, and to offer guidance^.!

During this special time, we all receive the flow from the Buddha, into our human hearts and minds, unifying, lifting and revealing our Spiritual connection and destiny!

Please join us for a Full Moon gathering at Mothers Beach from 7 to 9 PM.

This is a Very Very Very Special time and Gathering.

More details on the Full Moon Page…and you can resister to attend on the events page!

Mars in Gemini is very active this month which is sure to bring movement and change!

Mars is known as the great catalyst as it is a trigger or initiates a chain reaction of events, like a domino effect!

It can be something you are excited about, or totally unexpected! Remember…Timing is everything…. Particularly this month!!

Mars is about How and Where you place your basic energy and focus,and the sign he is visiting gives you the best indicator of aligning with this energy. When you work with the flow of Mars, you can accomplish and make progress on what ever you’re working on or doing this month.

Here are a few tips for working with Mars in Gemini!

*Gather your thoughts and think things through before acting!

*Come up with a plan and Write It Down so you can refer back to it as needed.

*Keep a journal or log of how things are going.

*Begin each day with “ What do I intend to do today? And at the end of the day…What did I accomplish today?”

This simple process will keep you conscious as to how you are utilizing and directing your energy.

This is your BEST PRACTICE to making the most of Mars in Gemini!

Here are the key dates Mars is especially active:

May 11th Mars Squares Neptune

May 12th Mars Trines Jupiter

May 19th Mars Quincunx Pluto

May 28th Mars Opposite Saturn

May 30 Mars Sextiles Uranus

These are the days when noticeable events occur, significant actions are taken, important conversations happen and impactful information comes forward. They are dynamic and high octane times!

May 18th Saturn Trines Uranus

This is the 2nd of 3 Trines in an 11 month period. The 3rd will be 11/11, and after that they won’t meet in this empowering way until 2047!!!! And, note, and this aspect holds strong for the last two week of May!

This is a good news Astro influence as it brings beneficial energy! Combined, these two planets bridge your ideals with reality and work to bring your dreams into manifestation! Help,guidance and support is taking shape behind the scenes from our Spiritual team, and will appear as Divine timing and coincidences! You can truly come up with innovative ideas and solutions that are viable and practical. The opportunity is for you to establish a foundation, allowing your innovative ideas to solidify! Life works!

This is a time when Gratitude and Thank you to the Cosmos is in order!!! Blessings Flow!
