Lit By A Summer Solstice, New Moon In Cancer In Later June & Gentle Allurement Into New Adventures Of A Full Buck Moon In Early July

Posted on by under Spirituality, Uncategorized

A New Moon In Cancer on June 25th emphasizes a feeling of safety with relation to home, family and other back to hearth-related activities such as cooking and gardening.

Cancer reflects the water element, and the creative-imaginative realms that keeps our chi flowing in abundant ways.

However, be mindful of the power of water and the accompanying emotional fluctuations thereof.

Remember there is God in forgiveness, and letting go of past transgressions so as to to avoid depression and excessive thinking.

Further, when we succumb to the psychological experience of analysis paralysis, rigid thinking and devilish ideas; they will take over our energy fields, and we will lose our wits about us.

Keep in mind that digesting bitter is a taste to appreciate but not overindulge in.

Trauma is a real experience that is inviting an opportunity to let go of and rework into new pathways for empowered living.

Release any lingering blocked energies. They will allow for any renewed vision at the New Moon.

Deeper play calling of self-care and soul nurturing should be highlighted in life’s game plan.

May we tune into heightened intuitions and telepathic awareness at this moment in time.

Be mindful of dreams and deeper psychic impressions, inner visions, and soul promptings.

A Full Buck Moon will happen on July 10th 2025. In general, Deer symbolize a gentle allurement to new adventures.

Meditation on the energy of Deer can help you effectively connect with Creator, God, Great Spirit, the Universe or Higher Self.

The key dynamic is to not demonize demons or get sucked into fear or any negative energies. We all have the sovereign right to connect with the Divine.

Alas, if you are committed to watching the news ‘to keep informed’; kindly give yourself the assertive right to turn it off after 30 seconds or so. By then, you’ll get the feed that you desire.

After that, it will be hard not to get sucked into consuming the peddling of fears and fall prey to hate.

You know how it goes, the Empire makes a killing off of the marketing and selling snake oil . . .

Yet, in this Year of the Snake- that’s a paradoxical pun to awaken personal alchemy in spite of global toxicity. In the venomous snakebite, a healing tonic is waiting patiently to awaken.

By allowing ourselves to rest, unplug and slow down to a turtle’s pace . . .

May we unhook from the dramas of the so called outer world.

Remember the power of prayer and meditation.

And in those prayers and meditation; try to stay as close to love and as far away from fear.

Given all the chaos and conflict in the outer world right now it is so important more than ever to stay grounded, connected to nature and live in the dimension of inner peace as much as possible.

Take care of yourselves everyone,

Ari

A Full Buck Moon Digs Into The Earth and Kindles the Fiery Flames of Super, Dragon-Like Lairs of New Adventures

Posted on by under Consciousness, Spirituality, Uncategorized

A Full Buck Moon will happen on Monday, July 3, 2023.

Meditation on the energy of Deer reveals gentle allurement into new adventures.

This moon will be the first of three consecutive Supermoons during the rest of the year.

And then the second arrives on August 1st, third on August 31st, and fourth on September 29th.

Supermoons are like regular moons on steroids.

This Full Moon goes by many names, including the Salmon Moon by Native Alaskans, Time Of Much Ripening by Mohawk, Blueberry Moon by Ojibwe, Squash Are Ripe by Algonquin and Hay Moon in Anglo Saxon culture.

Modern society forgets that pre-colonized Europe has Indigenous roots too.

Just like it forgets that early Christianity mixed paganism and shamanism into its teachings.

Christ Consciousness, which is an internal state of consciousness, is in alignment with these teachings.

Autumn Eclipse season will happen in October with a solar eclipse in the middle of the month and a lunar eclipse at the tail end of the month.

Eclipses are catalysts and always shake things up in our world and consciousness.

Also there will be two New (Super) Moons on January 21st and February 20th.

New moons are always associated with new beginnings.

A New Moon in Cancer will happen on July 17th.

Feeling safe is a good place to cultivate internally, especially right now.
In spite of emotional fluctuations, it is wise to learn to let go of the past.

Forgiveness will help avoid depression from thinking too much about things.

Having an attitude, chip on your shoulder or holding grudges are all self defeating.

Our perceptions of the world can be very subjective.

Giving yourself space to create distance without being bitter is a healthy form of self care.

A regal emotionally abundant manifestation will create a real sense of belonging in the world.

Do this with a healthy sense of detachment.

Remember the Q-TIP mantra by quit taking it personally.

Keep in mind that it’s still the year of the Rabbit according to Chinese astrology and will be until February 10th, 2024. And then, it will be the Year of the Dragon.

Dragon symbolizes power, change and spirituality and can awaken self-love and empowerment by tapping into your inner royalty and power.

Dragon represents masculine soul power or yang.

Consider Dragon’s connection to the Phoenix, which symbolizes the sacred power of the feminine or yin. The Yin and the Yang, masculine and feminine are at their natural best when flowing in balance with one another.

Give up the indoctrination that says that the light should defeat the dark or vice versa.

Can you imagine what it would be like to not have a nighttime to sleep at, or women living on the planet? Conversely, can you image no sunlight to walk around in or men around?

Equanimity of all energies are needed to sustain our well being.

Rabbit energy reinforces the calling out of our fears and a good reminder that what we resists persists. Its energy reflects fertility, the feminine powers of the moon, fertility and new life.

Do you need to start over in your life in a new chapter or even book?

May Rabbit inspire us to plan for a field of possibilities and make the necessary leaps and hops in that we need to make down the rabbit hole journey of life.

If you are paying attention, the outer changes in the world are resonating within your own soul. This magnifies the recognition that you can’t go back to the past, nor know with conviction what will happen in the future.

Also, the energy of Lizard is good medicine to tap into at this time. Use its energies to amplify your powers of perception, if you so choose to do so. It can awaken your dreams- even if you don’t dream at night, or remember your dreams rather, you can dream in the day.

However, if you become aware of your dreams, then you are lucid dreaming. If you have a lizard in your life that you connect with, study its qualities to learn more about yourself. Their energies can also help us trust your intuitive and psychic faculties.

Mediation on Lizard can reinforce the power to trust your own intuition over anyone else’s. Lizard is a powerful spirit guide to help us harmonize with our environment, through conscious dreaming to manifest what we want in our waking lives.

Envision a conversation between Rabbit and Lizard to examine any fears about what future possibilities might want to manifest. Remember to surrender and trust that the Universe will bring us to the shoreline, even if you have no idea of how that will happen.

Be mindful of control issues because this will be especially challenging but doable nonetheless, if only people oriented in this way choose to believe in and access their internal power.

It is good to have a game plan in the jigsaw puzzle of life.

But like John Lennon said, “life is what happens when you’re busy making other plans.” We can’t always control what happens to us but we can control how we respond to what happens.

Do this by letting go of the grasping and clinging to the status quo. Might as well get in alignment with the changes coming our way.

And there will be massive changes coming that will make the 60s and technological advances appear microscopic.

These seismic shifts are all connected to the New Earth Golden Aquarian Age that is unveiling before our eyes.

Yes, the world is on fire. But remember that out of the ashes, the Phoenix Rises!

Take care of yourselves everyone,

Ari

When In A Rut, It’s About Time To Buck Up To A Full Moon & Then Tell It To A Tree On A New Moon In Leo

Posted on by under Consciousness, Shamanism, Spirituality, Uncategorized
Photo by Kristen Bouse

A Full Buck Moon on July 13th is a gently alluring time for

new adventures along Nature’s trail way.

A New Moon in Leo on July 28 entices your soul to come out to

dance in the light and shine like the sun.

Are you hearing the Universe’s signs and synchronicities

telling you to chase fantastic opportunities?

Remember the Tao does nothing and yet leaves nothing undone.

No worries, mate.

Slow and low, that is the tempo.

Remember that Turtle can turn its head up on a log and be loved by Grandfather Sun for hours.

That isn’t narcissism.

Rather, ancient wisdom at play down by the river’s edge.

If you need to express yourself naturally, get outside and be with the trees!

They want to hear what you have to say and they can help spread your messages,

along echoes of whispering wind kissed leaves . . .

Consider giving a tree a hug or sitting underneath one to yield to their power,

and get in touch with the strength of your roots.

Breathe in Mother Earth supporting your breath.

Are you struggling with the Empire’s duality and paradox right now?

Is it the new politics of of Roe V Wade overturned or the legal right to carry a concealed weapon?

Exhale any dirty energy . . .

Can you see the cyclical death and rebirth without clinging and grasping?

(Equanimity)

And then there’s Mark Twain’s wit about Congress being America’s only criminal class

ringing through the cracked Liberty Bell.

Oh My God, Lord have mercy!

Right about now. Right about now. Right about now.

What?!

Now that’s gangsta.

When Blue Lives (really) Matter,

Constitution is promoting the General Welfare for everyone.

There are no good guys or bad guys or demonized Evil Doers!

(Mantra: Peace Officers)

The only defunding Taoists are talking about is Investing In Loss.

When we invest in loss, we transform our pain & suffering into a gain.

To understand this spiritual concept experientially and energetically

consider this practical strategy:

Touch a tree and perceive it’s energy flowing into your hands, through your arms,

down your body, and then

sink through the balls of your feet into the roots of the tree, down into the ground.

Imagine inner mulching and composting circulating heavenly chi through your body,

whilst being mindful of your spirited, recycled breaths.

Take care of yourselves everyone,

Ari

Slithering Out of Our Ruts During This Full Buck Moon

Posted on by under Consciousness, Uncategorized

Rebirth

The Eclipse season passes our orbit on this Full Buck Moon on July 5th, 2020. The third, and final eclipse gleans the skies with a Full Lunar Eclipse.

The next Eclipse season will be at the end of November, and mid-December, about a week before the Winter Solstice.

Movement into a New Age and Paradigm continues to accelerate at a more rapid rabbit-like pace.

A respected professional astrologer I know predicts a major doorway for souls to access opening into the Age of Aquarius at that time.

Some people ask that if reincarnation exists, then why do most of us forget our past lives?

Without the gift of forgetting, we wouldn’t be blessed with an awakening to the mystery of life, and choices we are given to make along the roadmap of discovery.

But nobody said becoming mortal, and growing up on Planet Earth would be easy.

And yet it is deeply empowering to take responsibility for the personal choice to find meaning during this lifetime.

Sometimes, finding meaning can be difficult, and require digging deeply into the dark bark mulch of the soul.

Yeah, past lives matter, and future selves are important.

But the gift of the present moment is where the true mystical divinity lives.

Right here, right now.

Is a male deer conscious that his new antlers are going to grow into larger, more powerful ones, or preoccupied with how many points he will end up having on his new rack?

Is he going to get stuck in a rut of analysis paralysis over it?

Probably not.

In much the same way as a deer’s budding antlers, coupled with the New Moon coming on July 20th – the old tracks are fading into the backdrop.

And so it is with the old tracks of a dying old world.

As the past ways fade into yesterday’s rearview mirrors, the birth of a New Earth is growing out of the rubble.

The unknowing facing humanity can be looked at as an opportunity for gentleness on the self, with compassionate allurement into new adventures.

When I think about the masterful predictive algorithms of the stock market, consumerism, and the weather, I am amazed at the mind boggling level of intellectual progress in human manifestation.

But the thing is, everything is changing, and up in the air.

What once served me, or functioned as dazzling spiritual tricks, no longer does.

There are new rules to learn, and respect.

In this process, there will be a new normal. We will need to acclimate, and become wise to it, while saying fairly well to the old normal.

Every soul is here to experience its evolutionary path. This expansion tends to happen by way of a catalyst of adversity.

Sometimes, that evolution looks like taking one step up, and two steps back, or the feeling of being caught up in a holding tank of conservation.

Other times, with the spirited winds at our backs, the opportunity for growth is exponential.

If we are willing to follow through with the commitment, the growth organically attriculates, and shines onto all areas of Being.

Experience teaches that by surrendering to the will of the Universe, I can trust that my boat will be carried to wherever I need to go.

If I can let go of the shores, avoid trying to push the tides, and make myself small, then I can trust, and allow my boat to carry me to my new destination, so that my inner light can shine on the world.

Like when a snake sheds its old skin, the alchemic rebirth of transformation takes place with a new vision, and a renewed sense of choice.

We can all do this.

Till we meet again,

Ari

Slithering Into Another Full Buck Moon With Snake Medicine

Posted on by under Shamanism, Uncategorized

A Full Moon arrives in our consciousness today.

As always, Father Sky reveals orderly cycles in the heavens,
in much the same way as Mother Earth does with seasons down here on Earth.

But like the seasons, we are not without
changing latitudes and attitudes.

Like when a Deer begins to rut this time of year . . .

To wit:

Or whether or not a manic stock market appreciates
how many points a buck has or the alchemy behind the
nightmare that we see playing out on the surface of the planet.

Even with the advanced intellect behind algorithms and
fancy nanotechnological advances:

You can’t forget about human rights, and the general welfare of all sentient beings.

But you already know not to demonize demons.

Remember that Deer symbolizes the spiritual power to dissolve the monster of fear.

This happens via a strong gentle gaze that awakens
the mythical quest that invites us to connect with Great Spirit.

The sacred union of Snake reflects transformation.

We are all vulnerable to the poisionous toxins in our world.
But remember that in the venom, there is a healing tonic.

Even if you have fallen off the wagon wheel, you
can still get back the eye the tiger with the magic of Crow.

Try not to become seduced by your fears – regardless of how real
you believe them to be, or proof or evidence you have to back them up
and make convincing arguments accordingly.

Heaven and Earth are meant to be in a collaborative relationship.

They are competing together for mutual-aid, rather than against one another.

You can’t have the yang of brotherly order,
without the yin of sisterly chaos.

Nature’s theater of cosmic sibling rivalry is shown
on the screen of a silver lining.

When I think about our ancestors that named this Full Moon after a male deer,
I can appreciate the point that predators and prey, like the yin and the yang
show us the cycle of life.

We humans did not weave the web of life –
we are strands in the web, and our actions have a ripple effect on
the multidimensionality of our experiences.

Put that in your peace pipe and smoke it,
and drink it in your meditative tonic of healthy choice.

Is it a coincidence that our planet has been attracting more attention
from other dimensions since the splitting of the atom, and then the
decision to weaponize this technology?

The reason history tends to repeat itself is due to
the density of the habituated mind.

Destiny only exists when we are unconscious of it.

Isn’t it nice to wake up to a mindful awareness?

Traditions might be time-tested, but not without novelty
and creative outlets.

But if we can learn from the sweet and satisfying souldful dance step
of Grandfather Sun and Grandmother Moon, then we can deepen
our understanding of balancing ritual with sacred meaning.

Otherwise, we just become ensconced in our robotic doings.

We all need a sense of safety and security.

But not at the expense of sacrificing freedom and liberty.

Getting swayed too far in either direction leads to a chemical imbalance
and hard times on the self.

Be gentle on yourselves peeps.

Till we tweet again,

Ari

A Unified Field of Dreams with Snake

Posted on by under Consciousness, Native American, Shamanism, Uncategorized

A Full Buck Moon entered into our skies earlier today . . .

Snake slithers out of its dark hole in a spirited way,
coming out of the closet into the light of day . . .

Like primal emotions that get triggered right about now

What feelings are simmering beneath the surface of your defense mechanisms –
waiting to jump out of the deeper waters of your soul?

Metaphorically, our old world is shedding old skins of toxicity . . .

Each and every one of us must release scar tissue that no longer
serves nor protects our sleepwalker ability
to pass through life in a hypnotic trance

Simultaneously, we are awakening to the healing tonic of the snake bite

What layers are we ready to let go of during the intense storms of a
forthcoming August astrological eclipse season?

Do we need more economic strangulation, military might
and escalating violence to wake us up?

How will your relationships with self and others transform and
realign their maps during these blowing winds of change?

In the Northern Hemisphere, summertime is in the air
Social activity and community connections are alive and free-spirited

Summer Solstice’s summit is fading into the backdrop . . .

Believe it or not, we are slowly making our way down the mountain
toward balanced light and dark forces again on Autumn Equinox in late September

Then after that, the dark night of feminine yin energies
will rise until Winter Solstice in December . . .

In truth, know that we are all diverse expressions of Oneness –
We belong to an interconnection that binds us in the
open arms of a loving Cosmic Consciousness

See you up the trails,

Ari

Woodchuck Sleeps Under a Full Buck Moon

Posted on by under Consciousness, Native American, Shamanism, Uncategorized

A Full Buck Moon arrives at the tail end of this week . . .

May the gentle lure of Deer guide you into points of
New adventures during your journey here

Baby groundhogs have surfaced from their wintry womb . . .
Their mother’s are kicking them out of the house now

Their energies reflect boundaries in spacial congregation,
with roommates or other family members . . .

Adopt the kind of respect embodied by Woodchuck . . .
The approach doesn’t have to be hard, rotten or bitter

Humanity could stand to learn how they develop their communal spaces
that harmonize with their social living environment

Notice how the wisdom of their parental launching style
Synchronizes with August’s forthcoming astrological eclipse season

Mother Nature can become a bit of a bear –
Especially when she is poked and prodded by dirty energy

Old selves are tested and fading into the backdrop . . .
This clears space for a death without dying perspective

A New Self and a New World want to be born in harmony

See you further down the trails,

Ari

Riding Out Summer Storms with Finch

Posted on by under Consciousness, Native American, Shamanism, Uncategorized

Finch flies in along with a Full Buck Moon this week . . .

But just to amplify the growing heated points right now,
we are lured further into positive summery vibrations
with the gentle nature of Deer

True, subtle momentum of Yang might be slowing down
as darker energies have been moving Yinward since the Summer Solstice

Yet intensities and activity levels expand in conjunction with magical opportunities

Witness the old world and your old selves dying
while at the same time a new world and new selves are budding

Kind of like Butterfly . . .

It can be hard to sit with the darker emotions and darkness in our world today
We sit in the tension of crisis and opportunity

But the power of love is transformative
The calm of love relaxes nervous woodland creature energies

How will we co-author a new script for our one human family,
including all other energies that share our
multidimensional unfolding budding reality?

Time to dance to the beat of a soulful Tango . . .

Step outside of your comfort zone into the realm of diversity in unity:

“If you understand, all are one and the same;
If you do not understand, there are thousands of differences and distinctions.
If you do not understand, all are one and the same;
If you understand, there are thousands of differences and distinctions.”

We are living in changing times, where it is becoming more challenging
to bury our heads in the sands of denial

Let go of the viewpoint that we are all divided and separate,
because we are all cut from the same cloth

Make friends with the magical bird inside your being
Sunlight and dark nights all matter

There is God in letting go of judgments and allowing for forgiveness . . .

We all are a matter of spirit!

Spirit wants us to make friends with that!

Everything that you see outside of yourself is really within you

You might just need to search and find in your soul what you are looking for
Might as well do so from a position of curiosity, compassion and empathy

Move closer to love and further away from fear

See you up the trails,

Ari
