Setting Intentions with Grandmother Moon
Working with the moon when you are setting goals brings in a whole new dimension of help. It means that you are working with the flow of the natural world rather than against it.
The best time to start a new project, start a new habit, start anything new is on or right after the new moon. The new moon, or the black moon is like the womb or like fertile soil. It is a time of growth. So you put your intention, your seed, into the fertile soil of the dark moon and watch it expand with the moon.
Every day the moon is getting brighter and and the seed you planted…

Full Moon Ceremony
You can try to deny it as much as you want but the fact remains, the moon has a strange pull on us. There is something unsettling about a full moon. A strange power. It pulls on us like it pulls on the sea. Plays our notes like a gifted musician. It might also scare us a little bit, we might have heard that people tend to get crazy around the full moon. And that’s of course when the werewolves go out to play. The best way to deal with this powerful force is to face it head on – with a Full Moon Ceremony.
The Journey to the Underworld

Independent Women! The Super Blue Moon Blood Eclipse in Leo
We have a very powerful full moon coming up next Wednesday January 31st. It is a Blue Moon, a super moon, the last in a series of 3 super moons, and a Blood lunar eclipse. Whoa!
It is also the beginning of a new eclipse season that will include this lunar eclipse and a solar eclipse on the 15th of February. These two eclipses are on the Leo Aquarius axis, just like the August 2017 eclipses. The Leo Aquarius axis is all about freedom and power. Which are of course also the main theme of the #metoo revolution.
While the August 2017 solar eclipse was all about kicking us into action this lunar…

Pale Blue Dot
It is very humbling to see our beloved planet Earth from outer space. In this image taken from Voyager I on February 14, 1990 from a distance of more than 6 billion kilometers or 4 billion miles we see our planet as a tiny dot. A tiny pale blue dot caught in an orange ray of light, resulting from taking the image so close to the sun.
This text here below by the wonderful Carl Sagan was inspired by this image and has inspired me so much that I named my album after it. ( You can listen to it here.)
Pale Blue Dot
“Look again at that dot. That’s here. That’s home. That’s…

New Moon Intention – Capricorn Moon
The first new moon of the year is upon us.
Has anybody else not really gotten into 2018 yet? Raise your hands please. The thing is there was a Full Moon on the 1st of January. The full moon is a time of culmination and the waning moon, the phase of the moon that we have been in since the new year is not the best time to start something new. It is a period for going inwards and letting go of things, not starting new things.
But 2018 is waking up. The new year will properly start this week with the first new moon of the year. So it’s a powerful time…

The Moon Cycle
The moon has four main phases: the Dark Moon, the Waxing Moon, the Full Moon and the Waning Moon. Each phase has their own flavour and knowing the power of each phase can be very empowering.
The Four Moon Phases
We can use an analogy of a flower to get a better picture of the four phases.
The Cycle beings with the New Moon.We can picture it as the dark fertile ground. The seed of the flower is still hidden underground, preparing to sprout and grow into the flower it will become. The first phase last for about three days before and after the New Moon.
The next phase is the Waxing Moon. During…
