Moon Day Break
Last Quarter Moon Taurus, Chiron Rx in Taurus & Venus Moves to Libra
Happy moon-day, loves 🌙🫶 this week welcomes the last quarter moon in Taurus 🌗🐂 & Chiron in Taurus stationing retrograde today—a central theme around our self-worth & inherent value steps up to the mic. A conversation that is ultimately here for our healing but will we cut the power to the mic or let it become the next poem … or thirty ? ;) That’s up to us of course as we always get to choose. But wait—there’s more, here to sweeten the mix, Venus enters Libra to re-balance this loving & valuable equation … let’s dive in … (press play on audio)








Spirit Animal Fun ::
This week’s inspiration is a mix of spirits from the Leo Season tribe & one very potent little hummer. To find out why I chose this mix to lift us, press play play on the audio ;)
Luna Dancing ::
Sun-Tue :: Aries—Alchemy is here with the moon & sun in fire signs. Clarity returns around wisdom gleaned from this lunar cycle. Take time to integrate, taking empowered action not impatient action. Thoughtful steps forward paired with play time will go far. Dance party anyone? Whistle while you work & let your sassiness come back online.
Tue-Fri :: Taurus—What is reflecting here..? Any adjustments? Or more acceptance of your own generosity, your own love? Ground into this beautiful energy & listen to your heart. Last quarter moon is Wednesday. Enjoy your senses—invite in favorite healthy activities. Use breath breaks to manage intensities. Love yourself even more.
Fri-Sun :: Gemini—Any repetitive thoughts need releasing? Invite in beautiful sounds baths & affirmations of who you are now to fill the airwaves inside you & out. Use healthy boundaries to feel safe enough to notice patterns & ‘open a window’ for fresh air to clear out the old mental clutter. You got this!
Sun-Tue :: Cancer—Let the sun warm the inside of your crab shell & invite in figurative or literal water-play to clear out any remaining debris around the old self-value. Add in affirmations & activities to fill this newly free space with the new self-value. Choose activities based on your heart—water these new sprouts with extra love & humming.
Breath Break :: Humming
Poetry ::
Diane Ackerman :: We Are Listening from The Universe in Verse collection by Maria Popova
David Whyte :: excerpts of “Burnout” from Consolation II collection
Zach Beach :: The Real Miracle from 108 Savasana Poems
esso :: noticings on a sunday morning …
Prompts ::
* listening for a sound …
* small steps & giant dreams …
* i smell smoke …
* building my life around love …
* the pattern of my twinkling light …
* when i sit & listen …
* what is most loving here is …
Affirmations ::
I choose Kindness in loving myself & loving myself some more. It is through receiving my love & its reflection back that a necessary gentleness builds.
A gentleness which softens outdated beliefs, a gentleness that allows for a new belief to form & with it the acceptance of my own high value, right to rest & beauty.
