Happy Imbolc 🙏
Really it's Imbolc week! Traditionally it is celebrated on the 1st of August but astronomically it falls at 6.27pm AEST on the 7th of August in the Southern Hemisphere.

What does it mean ?
Imbolc is a traditional seasonal celebration from many European cultures. Maybe a different name or a different story to weave. Before clocks and the Gregorian Calendar humanity used the changes and cycles observable in the natural world to keep time. The cycles of the Moon and the patterns of the seasons. These cycles created a natural calendar that was marked by families and communities. Imbolc being the midpoint between the Winter Solstice and the Spring Equinox. These celebrations occur every 6 weeks and mark the changes present in the landscape due to the changing path of the Sun.
At Imbolc we are transitioning out of the colder part of the year and rising towards Spring Equinox. The days are getting longer and warmer.
For me in NNSW some of the deciduous trees are reshooting or about to! The stone fruit are flowering 🙏 and so is my beautiful Magnolia 🌸
I love this time of year. The nights and mornings are still chilled but the days are beautiful and warm ♥️
I love connecting with the seasons and the turning of the Wheel of the Year in this way. Taking time to acknowledge the changes and live in Earth time not human constructed time ♥️

Moon Cycle Map ~ honouring the turning of the wheel 🛞
Today marks the last day of this current Lunar Cycle and tomorrow will see the dawning of the new with the New Moon arriving at 5.11am.
The Dark 🌑 Moon is a time of inner communion, rest and surrender. The Moon teaches us that there is a season and a phase for all things. And just as the Moon hides her face at the Dark Moon she calls us to also go within and turn our gaze from the external world to the internal world.
Blessings this Dark Moon night.
May your dreams be filled with insight and magic ✨
And may tomorrow's dawn bring a fresh breeze to carry you forward into the new Lunar Cycle.
Much love,
Mikala

Balsamic Moon Poem for you 🌙
She is calling you to rest.
She is calling you to slow.
Let it all fall and settle on it's own.
There is no need to try.
For that goes against the flow.
Let yourself surrender and be taken where you need to go.
The pendulum swings.
And pauses for a moment.
A stillness that lasts for as long as you hold it.
Gift yourself this sweetness now.
The joy of surrender.
For when the wheel turns you will be needed again.
But just for now let yourself come undone.
Let everything go and just be with the unknown.
The Dark Moon is coming and she will claim you all the same.
All that we can do is resist or embrace.
So lie down sweet one.
Close your tired eyes.
Take a deep breath and find stillness once again.

Pause for a moment.
Take a breath, breathe a little deeper.
Then exhale. Completely.
Take another breath, breathe a little deeper, a little longer. Feel your belly, ribs and chest expand with each inhale.
Exhale, draw your belly button in towards your spine and feel how much more air you can expel.
Do this a few more times.
In and out.
Expansion and contraction.
Notice the pulsing.
The fullness and emptiness.
Feel the pulsing of breath down in your belly.
Feel the internal space created with each inhale.
Feel the internal massage created with each exhale as you gently draw your belly button in towards your spine.
Pulse here with your breath.
Feel the movement continue and make it a little bigger and more exaggerated then you usually would.
Breathing in this way you are waking up and activating the physical and energetic functions of this space.

Physically you are increasing blood flow and movement through the internal pressure created by your breath and movement of your diaphragm. You are waking up and utilising the muscles of your core and gently massaging and increasing blood flow to your internal organs.

Energetically you are increasing your presence and awareness of this important energetic space in the body. You are directing new energy to this space and helping to wake up, clear and bring movement to held, stuck or stagnant energy.
❣️
Place your hands over your Womb space 🌹
Breathe and soften into awareness of your Womb, Ovaries and Yoni. Your whole Root.
Spend some time breathing here.
❤️
Send your Womb space a gentle smile of love, acceptance, gratitude.
When your ready gently open your eyes.

Taking a few breaths each day to drop into your Womb Space can help increase your connection to your body, your inner voice, intuition and feeling of well-being. Your body will tell you if your feeling tired, energized, depleted, activated.
Your Womb with thank you for the attention ❤️
And you will likely feel more energised, present and grounded

Winter Solstice - Yule - Friday 21st June, 06:51am
Take a sacred pause, nourish yourself and reflect on the cycle that has been. Meditate and open to insights for what is brewing for the new cycle ahead. Tune into the Void, the sacred stillness, the end of the cycle. This is the fertile darkness where all things are possible.
Traditionally for many European Cultures the Winter Solstice was celebrated as New Years Eve and still is for those living in the Northern Hemisphere. For us living in the Southern Hemisphere our Winter Solstice falls in the middle of the calendar year when everything is in the swing of happening. We don't have the culture or societal structures in place that would allow us to honour this time of transition, to have a pause, a holiday, a break from regular activity to acknowledge the Solar year that has been and welcome the new solar year to come.
I am reclaiming living by the natural cycles of the Earth and am offering a Winter Solstice Womens Gathering this Sunday near Kyogle, NNSW. If you would like more details please get it touch.
Swipe right for some ideas of how to honour the Winter Solstice in your own space ✨️✨️

When Women Gather - Mid Winter Solstice edition
Join me for a luscious Sunday spent dropping into your body, deeply relaxing and tuning into the energies of Winter Solstice - the ending of one solar cycle and beginning of the new.
Winter Solstice is the deep pause in our annual solar cycle. The Dark Moon of the yearly cycle. It is a time of inner reflection, nourishment and healing.
In our modern culture we tend to follow the ques for our yearly celebrations from our Northern Hemisphere friends. New Years Eve and setting New Years Intentions is one of those things. For those living in the Northern Hemisphere setting new intentions around "New Years Eve" in January makes sense because it is working with the annual seasonal cycle and their Winter Solstice, deep drop time.

For us in the Southern Hemisphere however celebrating New Years Eve and setting New Years intentions in December in the middle of our Summer is counter productive and not aligned with the natural cycle we are in.

So this Womens Gathering is a reclamation of living in the cycle we are in. Acknowledging the natural energy of descent and rebirth that is present for all of us in the Southern Hemisphere as we move through Winter Solstice and into a new Solar year.

We will be moving through some releasing and intention setting practices to help clear the old cycle and plant seeds for the new. This will be done through:
-embodied movement / clearing the physical body
-Womb Yoga /connecting to your inner sacred Womb portal for healing, insights and deep inner knowing
- guided inner journey / communicating with your inner landscape and knowing
- ritual / active intention setting + releasing practice.
-Optional Womb Moxa or Womb Blessing

This day will be relaxed and grounded.
We will move and breathe,
rest and dream.
We will eat and talk.
And tune into the turning of the Wheel.

Join me for a beautiful way to acknowledge the Winter Solstice and the Womens Wisdom of this season.

Get in touch to reserve you space.
Spaces $65 pp or get in touch to "pay what you can".

Descending Moon Yoga this Wednesday evening ✨️5.30-6.30pm
We will ride the descending energy of the Moon and turn our attention to nourishing our internal energies, releasing tension in the body and deeply relax to balance with the over doing world we live in. ❤️
If your feeling tired, overstretched or frazzled then this practice is for you.
It's also a great practice for the premenstrual phase and for those in menopause.
Bring a Yoga mat and some pillows/bolsters.

When Women Gather - this Sunday the 26th of May Green Ligeon Hall

Join me for 3.5 hours of Womb Yoga, embodiment practices, a guided relaxation and fire ritual to honour our descent into Winter.

This circle is available to Women of all ages who would like a safe and sacred space to journey into their body, connect with their Womb space and inner landscape.

The evening will begin with a guided movement practice that will help you slow down, release tension in your body and anchor into your pelvis and Womb space. We then transition into a deep guided relaxation where you will be invited to commune with your inner wise self and find deep nourishment. Our closing circle will involve a fire ritual where you will be invited to write down things you are ready to release with the descending energy ✨️ of the solar cycle and burn in the warming hearth fire in the hall. We will finish our evening with a warm meal to help ground and nourish.
Spaces are still available❤️

Womb Yoga teaches us to tune into our own inner cycles (whether we are still in our bleeding years or not) and the larger cycles that influence our lives like those of the Sun and Moon.

With this awareness we can make choices about our Yoga and our life that are most supportive for us.

In the Womb Yoga series I am currently teaching on Wednesday nights we are moving into the Waxing Moon phase which corresponds with the energy of Spring, the beginning of a new chapter and post menstruation. Menopause has also been referred to as a Woman's second Spring in life 💚

Yoga for this phase is starting to warm up and become more dynamic. We have just been through the Descending and Dark Moon phases which have been all about resting, rejuvenation and deep relaxation. In comparison the Rising Moon class is all about waking and warming the body, expanding, stretching and strengthening. It's like waking up after a deep sleep and moving your body to feel alive 💫

It's the perfect practice if you have been feeling stagnant, uninspired, low or depressed. It helps clear the cobwebs and bring some vitality and flow back into your body.
Spaces are available for tomorrow's class.
Join us at 5.30pm Uniting Church Fellowship Hall, Kyogle
$15 or $10 concession/unwaged
*for Women of all phases and stages of life
See you there,
