We got many moons than a deeper place

So I keep an eye on the shadow’s smile

To see what it has to say” – RHCP

First Quarter Moon in Virgo.

First Quarter Moon in Virgo. Ode to the stars and moon above.

Mmm. This energy. This flow. My sun sign is in the moon tonight. Although you might feel a sense of urgency to be full force, I beg you, take this one slow. This is a time to reflect…even though your intellectual side is telling you to raise your voice and speak your analytical mind…set that inner voice in check…and say not tonight. Unless, of course, you know what you’re getting yourself into. In that case…by all means go for it. 

For me…I’m going to take this one slow…even when I have this urgency to be on point….I’m taking this one slow. I’m reflecting back to this past new moon. I’m radiating love, grace, and adventure. I am a friend of all friends. If you need me I’m here to listen. Even if you don’t personally know me…I can be a sounding board. Tonight…I’m slowly, methodically, reflecting on my journey.

Love & Moonlight,

Kelly

PS. You might find yourself in a battle of wits…if you do, take care with your words and remember the lasting effects of the things that come out of your mouth.

Lotus Flow inspired. Everyday I find a new stretch..breathing deeper into each move. I find myself growing. Flowing. I am truly on the right path.

Moving On.&.Flowing.

Flowing to my own rhythm. Greeting the Sun each day. Moving on from what I used to be to what I need to be. People come and go. I’m learning this. I stretch. I sit. And then I stretch some more. The Sun. The birds. My own quietness. 

Full Moon in Leo tonight.. Ganesha Mudra Yoga Meditation for the Full Moon.

Tonight there will be a Full Moon in Leo.

I felt this one coming. I felt the intense build up to this point. Lately I’ve been making peace. Finding grace. Giving grace. I’ve felt a shift in the people around me, felt the shift within me. Practiced silence. Fell in love with the word considerate. Felt my body, mind, and soul plant firmly into the ground. Became grounded.

Fell in love with Ganesha. Practiced Jivamukti. Felt a connection.

Tonight…with the FULL MOON in Leo…think back to your new moon intention. Here was mine. Looking back I have really honored myself. I have felt a great shift in myself. I’ve been practicing yoga more, being mindful of those around me, staying open, giving grace. GIVING GRACE has been my greatest accomplishment thus far this year.

Leo may send you some extra playfulness and creativity your way. Use that to your advantage. If you are feeling super inspired to CREATE and be CREATIVE…make it a FULL MOON ritual. Block off time for yourself…at least 30 minutes to do a ritual FOR YOURSELF. Here are a few examples:

  1. Meditate. Believe it or not…this will set you free. It is proven to reduce stress. Above is a video of a morning yoga meditation I did last Sunday. For my meditation I performed a Ganesha Mudra. Ganesha is a Hindu God…a deity. Best known as the remover of obstacles. He is depicted with an elephant head. A Mudra is a hand gesture that seals or marks an intention…the Ganesha Mudra is practiced to remove obstacles from your path…be it something as simple as removing an unwanted feeling that is holding you down. Let go of those feelings that pin you down. Remove them from your life and set yourself free. Move yourself.
  2. Start a diary. This is another proven way to reduce stress. It is also fun to reflect on paper and then look back at it. Given that MERCURY IS STILL IN RETROGRADE until Monday…now is truly a time to just reflect. No big decisions need to be made. Just jot down how you feel. Write your life. It is yours.
  3. Burning ritual. My ALL TIME favorite. Tonight if you feel like you need to let go of some feelings…write them on a piece of paper and burn them. Remember…Mercury is still in retrograde…so just release some feelings that have built up…burn them and feel relief. No big decisions need to be made…just reflect. (Be safe…if you don’t know how to work with a safe fire…don’t try this.)

 

That is it I suppose…I plan on meditating and doing a burning ritual tonight!!

Love & Moonlight,

Kelly

First Quarter Moon

For this first quarter moon phase…I’m just honoring my body, mind, and soul. 

Usually I talk about the zodiac sign that the moon is in during my moon posts…BTW it is in Taurus… But tonight, I’m just going to talk…about what is inside me…a little diary piece.

Yoga is changing my life…mentally, physically, deeply. Every day I find progress in my emotions, my physicality, my soul. I’m learning how to let go of pain…how to find peace within it. 

I don’t cry anymore. I’ve learned to just be. I flow. I flow. I flow. 

I’m working on balance…On the mat…and in my heart. 

I don’t cry anymore. I’ve learned to just be.  I flow. I flow. I flow. 

Silent. Considerate. Grounded. 

Love & Moonlight,

Kelly

Baddha Konasana & Motherhood

Baddha Konasana everywhere. Anywhere. 

This will be brief…

I am not interested in resolutions this year. Rather, I’m interested in making the NOW more meaningful… in slowing down… taking it in… And awakening my divine feminine… 

I am no longer interested in living in the past… Or longing for the future… 

I am interested in right now…

And right now…I’m sitting in the Baddha Konasana position with my littlest daughter snugged up on my feet while she is fast asleep… I’m interested in being at her side while she doesn’t feel good. Because that is what moms do…

Pray over your children.. Meditate over your children… Love your children. 

Love & Moonlight,

Kelly
