Full Moon Lunar eclipse in Libra 22nd/23rd March - The Worm Moon

This week we have a full moon lunar eclipse in Libra. This moon is called the Worm moon, it gets it’s name from the worm casts that begin to appear at this time of year , the North American Indians saw this as sign nature awakening in the spring time, hence the first full moon after the spring equinox is given the name The Worm Moon.

Eclipses are a great time for cleansing and letting go of old energies that are no longer serving you and this energy fits in really well with the transition from winter into spring. Time to look forward into the rest of the year, welcome in the warmer longer days and to let go of the winter energy.

This full moon is in Libra and Libra likes balance, it is a good time to think about balance in your life, things like your work life balance may be bought to the fore during this next month. Also the balance in energy that you give to other versus the energy you give to yourself. 

In nature the spring time brings

nurturing energy to the fore, people nurturing their gardens and animal nurturing the young. Why not follow natures lead and nurture yourself over the next few days.

The energy of this full moon is powerful and gives an opportunity to be kind for yourself,  and to bring more balance to the energy you give to your own happiness if you need to.

It is also a good time to express gratitude, living in an energy of being grateful for what you have rather than focusing on what you think you lack allows the universe to give you more things for you to be grateful for. Think of it this way, how likely would you to be to give a gift to someone who did not thank you for the last gift you gave? The universe is your friend, be thankful and it will continue to give. Often when we have troubles we forget what a privileged existence we have, for example , how many of you reading this post even think about going to your tap and pouring a glass of water, millions do not have that privilege yet many of us think nothing of it, a small thank you for those things around us we take for granted raises your vibration and attracts more good to you.

I have drawn a card for the full moon energy from the beautiful Thelema Deck which is one of my favourites, the card I have is the Hierophant, this card talks about structure and form together with spirituality, so in it’s own way it also speaks of balance , the ability to be part of a material structured world but also to be aware of your higher self and the more spiritual side of you. The Hierophant can be seen as a religious card and it is interesting that it has appeared in connection with this full moon phase which leads us into and important time for those of the Christian faith. For those of us in the UK even if not Christian or particularly religious the long weekend does offer up an

opportunity for some work life balance adjustment as well as a chance to hopefully enjoy getting out into nature and enjoying the spring.

A brief look at dreams

As both a Tarot reader, intuitive and therapist I work a lot with the subconscious mind, I am particularly interested in dreams.

 I have studied the work of Carl Jung on this subject and if this is a real area of interest for you I recommend his work most highly. His theories on dreams are fascinating and the interpretation of dreams can be a fascinating journey into your own subconscious.

The first thing I would recommend that you do if you want to understand your dreams and to use them more effectively is to keep a dream journal.

Keep it at your bedside and jot down any dream that you have as soon as you wake. Note any themes, people, objects in the dream and any feelings you have. The more you keep the journal, the more dreams you will remember, it is like saying to the universe ‘I am listening’ it rewards you by giving you more recollection.

I would also recommend setting a positive intention before you go to sleep each night,  that you wish to remember your dreams, it’s surprising the difference this can make.

When it comes to interpretation of dreams it is important to remember not to take them literally, the people, places and objects you dream about are symbolic and often represent parts of your own personality: for example if you dream about a child, this will often represent your inner child telling you that maybe it’s time to embrace that part of you more.

The important thing to remember is what those places, people or objects in your dream mean to you, after all we all see things differently. For a person who had a phobia about spiders dreaming of them would be quite scary and the dream may be talking about some inner fear you have.

Whereas if you just see spiders as a pretty cool clever animal that makes a beautiful web to live in your dream could be about you being able to renovate your home. It all depends on perspective.

The more you keep a journal the more you will start to understand your dreams, if you keep a little note of the things going on in your life at the same time it will really begin to make sense. In mine I use the left hand page to note daily thoughts, feelings, things that are happening around me and on the right hand page I note my dreams (I do it this way around as the right side of the brain is the side that deals with intuition, subconscious, art, colours, emotions dreams etc.). If you do this over a period of time you will notice the patterns as they start to emerge.

Most of all have fun with this, use your dreams to enhance your life they will often show you the good around you and how to get more out of life, if you can understand and use them you just might find you feel more in touch with who you truly are.

I do offer dream analysis through my website www.crystal-sparkles-readings.co.uk . If you would like a personal tarot reading or dream analysis you will find prices and contact details there.

New Moon solar eclipse in Pisces 9th March

Tonight we have a New Moon, solar eclipse  in Pisces, with this new moon being in the sign of Pisces you will probably find that this energy will be affecting your emotions, especially if you are a water sign yourself. 

The energy of the Moon in tarot is all about the subconscious mind, imagination and dreams are especially important when this card is shown in a reading, Pisces is the sign of feelings, compassion, emotion and the subconscious so having both of these energies around together will mean that intuition is strong, psychic abilities are strengthened. Pay attention to your dreams over the next few nights.

Our intuition and emotions are there guide to us, most of us spend a lot of time in the left (thinking and logical) side of the brain on a day to day basis, the intuitive right side of the brain can get a bit neglected, so take this opportunity to indulge in daydreams, feel rather than think and allow your intuitive side of the brain to guide you.

Creative energy will also be strong at this time so maybe make time to draw, paint of colour, allow your creative side out for a few days.

This new moon is accompanied by a total solar eclipse in Pisces and is also a super moon, so this is a very powerful time. Eclipses are good times to let go of any negativity  as their energy  is very cleansing, so a good time to be out with the old and in with the new. It's a very powerful spiritual time so it’s likely everyone will feel it, however, empaths, intuitives and those who work with spirit are likely to feel it very deeply so be kind to yourselves and rest if you need to.

As with all New Moons this is a great time to focus on the new things you would like to manifest in your life and send out your cosmic orders. These can be placed in many ways, wishes, prayers meditations, whatever works best for you.

Your wishes will have more power if you place them out there in a way that resonates with you.

Just remember to keep the wish positive, don’t get distracted by what you don’t want, just keep focused on what you want to bring into your life, also keep the feeling of already having what you are asking for, using statements like, ‘the universe surrounds me with love and abundance’ keep it positive , keep it present.

Hopefully you have a little insight into the New Moon on 9^th March now, if you would like your own reading please contact me through my website or my facebook page Crystal Sparkles Readings.
