Beltane Wesak Full Moon Portal
Wesak Scorpio Full Moon
Friday, May 1st: 10:23am (PDT), 11:23am (MDT),
12:23pm (CDT), 1:23pm (EDT)

Sun 11'20 of Ta**us Opposite the Moon at 11'20 of Scorpio
What an incredibly potent day May 1st is this year with the Scorpio Wesak Full Moon falling on the sacred day of Beltane, also known as 'May Day'.

There is so much to share here about this powerful and transformational day so bear with me!

The Wesak Scorpio Full Moon is the most powerful Full Moon of the year, not just because it is in Scorpio but because it is at this Full Moon that the Buddha was born, reached enlightenment and left his Earthly incarnation.

Every year spiritual initiates gather in the Wesak Valley of the Himalayan mountains in deep ceremony to welcome the Buddha and other Enlightened Ones who return to bring profound blessings to the Earth and humanity. It is a sacred time when initiates renew their spiritual vows for the year ahead and devote themselves to their Path of Service. I will share more about the Wesak Festival below as it is incredibly important.

I wanted to share a little about the astrological 'signature' for this
Full Moon:
The Sun will be at 11+ of Ta**us opposite the Moon at 11+ of Scorpio. Notice where this falls in your own astrological chart. It will be particularly potent for those with planets from 3 - 19 degrees of fixed signs: Ta**us, Leo, Scorpio and Aquarius.
The themes for this Full Moon are around our use of the valuable resources of the Earth and in our own lives, as well as the use and abuse of power and sexuality. Issues around these areas of life will be highlighted.

The Scorpio Full Moon will bring the 'shadow' to the surface and help us to transmute, transform and alchemize all that emerges. It is a very deep and powerfully emotional sign, that yearns for soul level connection. It's symbol is the 'Scorpion' that can sting, in it's lower expression, and the 'Phoenix' in it's higher expression that is the Phoenix rising from the ashes of the old.

What are you alchemizing and transforming right now in your psyche and in your life so that you may be reborn and rise up from the ashes of the old??

It blew my mind to find the Sabian Symbol for 11-12 degrees of Scorpio is:
'An Embassy Ball'. After what happened last week with the gunman storming the presidential gathering and the ball room at the White House that is angering many of us it is quite synchronistic that this is the symbol for this Full Moon.

'An Embassy Ball' can be seen as a place that brings together people of different cultures and points of view to find a common ground and to experience a larger group consciousness.

According to many translations this image points to the need for diplomacy and tact in complex relationships, balancing personal ambition with a responsibility to the Collective whole of humanity.
To me this points to the Aquarian Age consciousness that is needing to birth within our larger societal structures and certainly within our governments that are operating from personal gain and greed rather than for what is for the highest good for ALL beings, and all Life, including our Planet. Perhaps this will be brought into focus at this Full Moon!

Also in the signature of this potent Scorpio Full Moon:
Mercury will be in exact conjunction with Chiron in Aries here to help us heal our wounds around communication, bringing into our awareness any ways we have held our voices back, not spoken our truth, or used our words unwisely.

On this day you may become acutely aware of any blocks in your throat chakra as well as any ways you have not felt free to express your true & unique Self, your authentic voice and your individuality. Be very mindful around your communication today and the power of your words to heal or to hurt.

Pluto conjunct Goddess Asteroid Juno
in Aquarius is here to bring deep transformational energies to our
relationships, our issues around commitment and devotion to our beloved ones. It will support a deep cleansing, purification and healing of all that is not in alignment in our relationships.

Saturn is still close to Neptune which is conjunct Pallas Athena in Aries. Tune into your inner spiritual warrior/ess. What is calling you into action right now? What wisdom can you bring with you as you move forward into the new chapter of your life? What higher truth do you need to speak?

Uranus is solidly in Gemini now not too far from Venus who is now in the Solar Plexus Ascent Gateway in her 19 month cycle, reclaiming her power and sovereignty. In Gemini pointing towards our communication and also breaking out of old belief systems and narratives that have held us captive and keep us in duality, polarity and separation.

With so much in Fire and Air planetarily the Ta**us Scorpio Full Moon is here to remind us not to forget about staying in touch with the depths of our souls and our sacred body temples.
To say the least, this is a super potent Full Moon Portal.

In the Great Wheel of the Year, May 1st is known as Beltane and one of four fire Festivals in honor the Sacred Marriage of Earth and Sun, Feminine and Masculine.

In the ancient Gaelic tradition Beltane is a celebration of the peak of Spring as the growing light of the Sun dances with the fecund body Mother Earth.

Through their sacred dance fertility is awakened across the lands.

This ancient festival has been celebrated in sacred rituals of dancing around the May Pole weaving together ribbons representing masculine and feminine integrating together. It was also honored by making and wearing crowns of flowers, as well as jumping over a bon-fire while affirming your dreams, and celebrating this sacred time with song, dance, drumming & remembrance.

This time is also the honored as the mid-point between the Spring Equinox and Summer Solstice in the Northern Hemisphere, with the true astrological mid-point being on May 5th this year when the Sun is at 15 degrees of Ta**us.

In the Southern Hemisphere, it is the mid-point between the Autumnal Equinox and Winter Solstice and is the time there of Samhain, the time to honor the Ancestors as the veils between the world's thins.

The month of May, is named after Maia, the Greek goddess of fertility and flowers of which May is known for.

Today we pause to celebrate the awakening fertility of Mother Gaia and the warmth of the growing Sun in the North, as the Earth comes alive with new life burgeoning everywhere....

As the life force of Mother Gaia
surges forth in the sacred dance
with the rains and the Sun....
as the Nature Spirits and Devas
tend the newly germinating seeds,
plants and flowers...
We give thanks to these ones for
all the energy and life-force
they are bringing forth for all of us
and for the abundance of this
year’s harvest ahead!!
It is truly a time to celebrate NEW LIFE!!!

At this sacred time take a moment to honor the union of Masculine and Feminine within you and within nature all around you...

It is a powerful time to create a ceremony to bring these energies
into sacred balance and harmony within you so you can birth new life, new projects... and new creations in your life...
For it is from the Sacred Marriage
of the Masculine & Feminine within...
The Sacred Marriage Love & Truth...

Love & Light, Dark and Light, Yin & Yang within that the true Power of Creation is Activated!!

You can do a sacred meditation in your heart temple where you invite your masculine and feminine to join you and have them face each other to begin communing with each other.

Maybe there is forgiveness needed for deeper connection to occur, or perhaps they have some things they need to work out to come back into sacred balance and union with each other within your sacred heart temple.

Once they have worked things out and they are ready to come into Sacred Union or Marriage you can imagine a figure eight flow of energy between their sacred hearts, like the infinity sign...
See this flowing freely between them.

You can do this figure eight flow of energy between all of their chakras starting in the heart and then going up to the soul star and crown chakras and then down through the third eye, throat, thymus or high heart chakra, then back into the heart, down into the solar plexus, hara at the belly button, down into the sacral and then root/base and earth star with this flow of energy moving between them.

This is a beautiful way to bring their sacred energies together.
You can also bring your masculine and feminine pillars of light, that are on your left and right sides, into sacred relationship by imagining a figure eight flow of energy between them.

Once this is complete you may be guided to have them embrace or make love to each other within you.

This ceremony can also be done with a sacred partner that you wish to come into deeper union and sacred relationship with and can be consummated in sexual and divine union with your beloved.

This is also a beautiful time to renew any marriage or relationship vows you may have with a partner or within yourself.

Be creative with your ceremony and bring as much Love, Beauty, Light and Grace to this through your sacred heart connection.

THIS IS A TIME TO CELEBRATE...

Back now to the deeper meaning of the Wesak Full Moon Festival.

This Festival is focused in the Wesak Valley deep in the Himalayan Mountains of Tibet where hundreds of spiritual initiates, teachers, leaders, light-workers and yogis, who are devoted to the evolution of humanity, gather on both the physical and spiritual planes. Their intention is to gather this potent light to dispense to humanity in the coming days and months and to inspire their spiritual path of service for the year ahead.

During this most sacred time the energies of Enlightenment are available to all of humanity and the doorways between the spiritual realms and the earth are open wide. It is a potent time to align with the Enlightened Ones and Ascended Masters, with the Sisterhoods and Brotherhoods of Light who guide our planet and assist us in our evolution and spiritual growth.

This is a time when the Buddha and the Christ come together, East and West, joining in sacred ceremony for the benefit and enlightenment of humanity and All beings.

It is truly a time to open your heart and soul to receive the beautiful spiritual energies, light, love and wisdom that are pouring forth from the realms of Light.

Through the Buddha, we are blessed with the profound Light and Wisdom of God-Source.

Through the Christ, we are blessed with the Love of God-Source pouring forth to all of humanity.

Through the Boddhisattvas we are blessed with immense Compassion for all beings.

Many beings join across the Earth in sacred ceremony to honor this most auspicious time, linking hearts and opening to receive the powerful Codes of Light that are pouring forth.

Wesak represents the beginning of a New Spiritual year and is a time when the spiritual energy for the next 12 months is being prepared for humanity.

This is a perfect time to review and reflect upon the passing year, to release your spiritual contracts that are complete now, giving thanks for all you have received, giving thanks for all the blessings, lessons, sacred learning, all the ways that you have grown throughout the year.

Leading up to the Scorpio Full Moon you may have had memories arising from your unconscious, and deep feelings and emotions emerging from the depths of your soul for you to feel, to reflect upon and transmute during this powerful Full Moon. Just allow whatever needs to arise to arise and just be with it as a loving observer but also allow yourself to feel it ALL.

Remember at this sacred time, you don’t have to do it all alone,
there is immense spiritual support during this time to help, support and guide you.

This Full Moon has the potential to bring deep healing and forgiveness forth as all these beings come to bless you, humanity and our beloved Planet.

Remember this is a most potent time of purification of our physical, emotional, mental, spiritual and energy bodies.
So it is best to surrender all resistance and allow the healing and blessings to pour forth to you.

Receive. Receive. Receive and give thanks.

The actual day of the Wesak Full moon is considered the most auspicious day and is called the 'Day of Safeguarding'. It is a time of spiritual retreat, a time to still your mind, find inner peace and prepare yourself deeply.

The Wesak Ceremony has a particularly strong focus during the 8 minutes surrounding the exact moment of the Full Moon as this is considered the time of the most potent frequency of Light. Here the initiates, led by the Christ, gather in the Wesak Valley, and form a pentagram (the Venusian symbol of the world soul) while the Buddha hovers over bringing forth an immense
Light for all to receive.

It is good to feel yourself as a chalice during this time, opening to receive the profound blessings of light into your sacred heart, to then pour and radiate them out to bless Mother Earth, Humanity and ALL beings in the days after this powerful ceremony.

The beauty of this ceremony is that it bridges all faiths, all spiritual paths, all beliefs and reminds us of our Unity and Oneness. It is a time to remember our Divinity and the Divinity within ALL beings, within all of life.

During the whole week surrounding the Wesak Full Moon it is a time to deeply focus on the needs of Humanity and Mother Earth, and to focus on our path of service for the betterment and enlightenment of ALL beings. It is a time to purify our mind, heart, soul and Spirit, to keep our vibration clear and pure, and to focus on the Light and the Love that is abundantly available to us.

So on this most potent day of Beltane and the Wesak Scorpio Full Moon may you feel the immense Love, Light, Compassion, Forgiveness, Peace and Grace pouring forth from the Spiritual Realms flowing into your Heart and Soul... awakening & expanding your Spirit... comforting and soothing your Heart... deepening your Soul!

May the infinite blessings of this day of Sacred Union bring balance to your life.

May you release your old contracts from the passing spiritual year and dedicate yourself on your spiritual path at this time of great change and powerful movement forward.

May Peace be with you and with all beings.

All my love, light and compassion flowing to you,
Deborah El'elia

IMBOLC BLESSINGS beloved Soul
The Sacred Wheel Turns: Mid-Winter Festivals
Imbolc/Candelmas/Brighid's Day
February 1st- 3rd, 2026

February 2nd, marks the sacred turning point of Imbolc, also known as Candelmas, St.Brighid's Day and Groundhog Day.
Imbolc, the ancient Celtic name for this time of year, literally means "in milk" and ‘in the belly’. Imbolc marks the start of the lactation period for the ewes and cows and beginning of the new agricultural year.

It has been celebrated since ancient times in the Celtic and Goddess traditions as a sacred turning point in the Great Wheel of the Year. It is one of the 8 Sabbats, High Holy Days, that includes the Solstices and Equinoxes and the 4 mid-points in between that are the more mystical and subtle sacred moments of the year that include: Imbolc, Beltane, Lammas/ Lughnasad and Samhain.

Imbolc marks the mid-point between the Winter Solstice and Spring Equinox up here in the Northern Hemisphere. In the Southern Hemisphere, it is the mid-point between Summer Solstice and Autumn Equinox, and the sacred turning point of Lammas/Lughnasad, the first harvest when the Earth is bursting with life and things are coming to fruition!

But up here in the North, as the Earth still lies barren, we begin to sense the first stirrings of Spring as the sap begins to rise in the trees around us, and the sparks of new life begin to stir within the seeds and within our own soul.

This is one of my favorite sacred times in the Great Wheel of the Year and I always honor this sacred festival of Imbolc for a whole week.

This year, the actual astrological mid-point is this Tuesday, February 3rd, when the Sun is at 15 degrees of Aquarius, exactly half way between Winter Solstice and Spring Equinox. This sacred time of ‘Mid-Winter’ in the Great Wheel of the Year has many names and deeper meanings.

Before I ever knew what and when ‘Imbolc’ was, during childhood growing up in Michigan, I often struggled during the cold month of February. But once I started tuning into this most subtle and mystical time of year, things really began to shift for me every year at this time.

When we stop and pause, being with the still silence of this time, we begin to feel the first stirrings of Spring ever so gently, deep within the Dark Womb of Mother Earth. Here the first sparks of new life begin to stir, in the seeds, in the animals, deep within our souls, within our womb-bellies, but ever so subtly.

Perhaps at first, we may experience this as an uneasiness, or as an unrest in our soul. But the beauty of this unrest is that it prompts us to reach deep inside our souls, to search for something new that is longing and waiting to be germinated and birthed in our lives. It is in the still darkness of the void that the Light is reborn.

It is now, at Imbolc, that the first sparks of inspiration slowly begin to awaken deep within, and the new seedlings of our creative projects get their first visions of life… then at the Equinox, with the birthing energies of Spring all around us, we can plant these beautiful seedlings of our heartfelt creative visions, and nurture them to grow, tending them with our loving care in the Spring and Summer seasons ahead.

From the fallow-ness of Winter comes the glorious re-birth of Spring...
Take a moment now to tune deeply
into the womb belly of Mother Earth...
deep into your own belly,
heart and soul...

Become aware of the sacred seeds you have held within since Autumn…

Feel them beginning to stir deep within…
What energies do these seeds hold for your Life?

What new life is being sparked and awakened in your Soul right now that you are ready to tend in preparation
for the rebirth of Spring?

Tune into these seeds and these sacred flames of new life and creation awakening within you?

What are they calling you to create?

What is awakening within you that is longing to come forth and take form in your life and in the New Earth?

This is a time to go deep within to reflect upon these questions and the sacred energies and flames stirring within your Soul...

Journal... Make a vision board...

Create a new altar with images and symbols of your seed intentions and visions...

Anoint your candles with sacred oils and light them to symbolize the returning Light and sparks of Inspiration awakening within.
Re-consecrate your Altars and Sacred Spaces…

This is such a perfect time to do this as on February 4th is the Feng Shui Solar New Year of the Fire Horse and on February 17th the day of the New Moon Solar Eclipse we have the Chinese Lunar New Year.

So, use this time between now and then to do deep cleansing of your inner and outer spaces as we are in the very tip of the tail of the Serpent as the Year of the Snake has its’ last days before the Fire Horse charges in.

This sacred time is also known as Candelmas, the traditional Christian festival, that honors the ritual purification of Mary, 40 days after the birth of the Christ. In Pre-Christian times it was known as the "Festival of Lights". Candelmas is a time when all the candles in the churches and homes are brought out and blessed.

"This is the feast of the waxing light. What was born at the Solstice begins to manifest. This is the time of individuation: tonight we join together to each light our own sacred flame, and become uniquely ourselves. Tonight is the time of initiation, of new beginnings, when the divine seeds that we have held within our bellies since autumn will begin to stir... to later sprout and grow at the Spring Equinox. We meet to share the light of inspiration, that will grow with the growing year."
~ Starhawk

February 1st, is also known as Brigantia, Saint Brigit's Day and Brighid’s day when the Ancient Goddess Brigid is honored. She is arguably the most revered Goddess in Ireland and Britain to this day. Because she was so loved and celebrated amongst the peoples of the land, the ancient Mother Goddess was transformed into a Saint when the Christians came along. There are so many legends and stories about Brighid, the deeply loved Goddess and Saint.

Brighid, is also known as Brid, Bride, Brigantia. Her name means "Firey Arrow", "One who exalts herself" and "the Bright One". She is the Goddess of the Triple Flames, the ‘Flame of Inspiration’, as the patroness of poetry and the muse of the bards, the ‘Flame of Healing and the Hearth’, (much like Vesta or Hestia as the Roman-Greek Goddess of the Hearth) as patroness of healing, mid-wifery and fertility, and of the ‘Flame of the Forge’, as patroness of Smith-craft and the marital arts thus She is also seen as a warrioress Goddess.

She was said to have been born at dawn with a crown of fire glowing from her head. Brighid is said to be among the sacred mystical Tuatha De’ Danann, a tribe of magical beings who possessed supernatural powers and reside in the Otherworld and serve as guides to those on Earth.

In the Celtic tradition, it is Brighid that is considered the one that ushers in Spring-time and the new agricultural cycle of the year.
Wherever Brigid walked flowers and shamrocks grew as she radiated great light, inspiration and healing all around her.

She is also connected with the Lady of the Lake, who forged King Arthur's Excalibur sword. In this aspect, she is also known to be the Goddess that watches over all the healing wells and springs, and many springs are named after her. Wells were considered to be very sacred because they arose from oimbelc (literally "in the belly"), or womb of the Mother Earth. In this aspect she is also connected to the Goddess Sullis of the sacred healing waters.

Brighid is also very much connected with the mystical isle of Avalon, also known as the "Isle of Apples", because she was known to have an apple orchard in the 'otherworld', to which the sacred bees would travel to receive their magical nectar.

She is certainly a multi-faceted Goddess and is considered the White Maiden aspect of the Triple Goddess as Maiden, Mother and Crone, and personified as a ‘bride’ or ‘virgin’ at this time of year, as well as a mid-wife, who watches over pregnant women and childbirth.

She is the one that all the bards and poets would call upon to spark their inspiration and awaken them to their creativity once more. Thus, it is so fitting that we call upon Her to help stir our own creative juices and inspiration.

The ancient Celtic word, "Awen", which means the highest frequency of Divine Inspiration, can be chanted at this sacred time especially, and at any time of year, whenever one wishes to summon "Divine Inspiration". Just chant AWEN and feel the vibrations shift!! I now end most of my prayers with Awen and this feels so magical!

"At Imbolc, Brid is pregnant with the seed of the Sun. She is ripe with the promise of new life, as the seeds of the earth deep within its soil begin to awaken at this time, ripe with the promise of Spring, new life for the planet. Although the days of February are filled with winter's bitter cold, the seeds deep within the womb of the earth are safely nurtured as they begin to awaken with life. It is this knowledge and understanding we celebrate at this time, adding our magic to that of the earth's, and assisting the Wheel's turning once again."
~ Christina Aubin

Imbolc is the ancient foundation for our American Groundhog Day, where Brigid's snake was seen peaking its head out of its mound and its behavior was said to determine the length of the remaining Winter, similar to our modern-day ground hog tradition.

This is a very powerful time to cleanse and clear your home and hearth, to ‘Feng Shui’ and re-organize your house and your life with deep sacred intention. It is a time to pay old debts, to clear the slate clean, to consecrate and bless your candles, crystals and altars, and to renew your spiritual vows.

Since it is the Leo Full Moon today it is a perfect time to set your crystals and sacred objects outside under the Full Moon to charge them for the New Solar and Lunar years ahead.

Traditionally, it has been a yearly ritual for Priests and Priestesses to renew their spiritual vows at this sacred festival. So, if your heart and soul are guided, take time to re-write your sacred vows at this most potent and subtle time!

What are you devoting yourself to
on your spiritual path this year?

As you can see this is a very rich time of the year to honor and celebrate, to meditate, do sacred ceremony and ritual.

I always honor this Festival for a good week or so as ‘Lunar Imbolc’ is honored at the New Moon of Aquarius which we will celebrated on February 17th, the day of the Chinese Lunar New Year and powerful Solar New Moon Eclipse.

NEPTUNE TRANSITIONS INTO ARIES UNTIL 2039!
Monday, January 26th at 9:37am (PST) Neptune will leave tropical Pisces and cross the 0 degree threshold of Aries in tropical astrology.

On March 30th through October 22nd, 2025 Neptune first dipped his toes into Aries after being solidly in Pisces
since February 2012.

Now 14 years later, Neptune makes his final entry into Aries where he will stay until March of 2039.

The last time Neptune journeyed through Aries was from 1861 - 1875. This 14 year period held within it the American Civil War, many potent global revolutions, and the transformation of many nations.

During this period of time there was great conflict and change mixed in with major cultural shifts including the rise of new philosophies and spirituality.

For those of us who are sentimental, Neptune, from a Sidereal viewpoint, will remain in the constellation of Pisces for many more years, so we are likely to feel both these energies dancing within us.

But from our Tropical astrology viewpoint, Neptune will be crossing 0 degree point of Aries, known as the Aries Point (AP) of the Tropical Zodiac. This is an extremely powerful point as it is the very beginning of our Tropical Zodiac and the moment of the Vernal or Spring Equinox as the Sun enters Aries and initiates a whole new larger Solar Cycle.

Like the initiation of Spring, there is a renewed and powerful birthing forward as the Earth begins to slowly release the shackles of the Winter and is ready to burst forth with new life. It is truly a time of rebirth and resurrection from the depths and confines of the passing Solar year.

If you tune deeply inward and contemplate this, you might be able to feel Neptune, who has been in the deepest of deep mystical realms for the past 14+ years, in the mists, the foggy realms, in the depths of the ocean... as he is ready to cross this potent Vernal Equinox point and begin a whole new 165 year cycle. YES a whole new 165 year cycle!!!

You can imagine that in moments it may feel like a huge and startling transition.

Since we are all connected in the Great Web of ALL Creation, in the Unified Quantum Field, we too will be walking with Neptune across this threshold.

As Above, So Below!

When I reflect back over the past 14 years of my life since 2012, I can honestly say that I can feel myself beginning to come out of a kind of fog or primordial mist.

I am aware that during this period of time I have been in a much more 'inner world' place in my life and not as much concentrated on the 'outer world' or as goal driven nor focused. I have been in a much more surrendered and amorphous state of being, not as defined, focusing on my spiritual growth and the evolution of my soul, as well as experiencing profound loss and grief.

When I tune even deeper within however, I can feel that so much has actually been going on but on a deep Soul level, not necessarily in plain sight. So much has been transmuting and metamorphosing within the deepest caverns of my Soul.
It has been like being in a chrysalis, in that dark moist inner space, covered in the sticky but nourishing inner waters of the Soul.

What have the past 14 years been like for you?

Using the above metaphor we can feel what this transition might be for us and for Neptune as he crosses this most potent point of the tropical zodiac.

Which brings me to the amazing 'Sabian Symbol' for 0-1 degree of Aries: A Woman rises out of the water, a seal rises and embraces her. This sacred image or metaphor signifies emerging and rising up from the depths of the great cosmic ocean of Oneness, from the undifferentiated waters of life, from the great womb of creation, from the realms of the collective unconscious.
At this very moment of emergence there is immense potential and possibility, a potent entry into a whole new reality with conscious awareness and an experience of Self...

A unique Self or Soul separate from the Great Oneness and merging that was experienced in the deep oceanic waters of creation.

As the Seal rises to embrace her it is as if she is being blessed by her familiar companion of the depths who is initiating her into this new realm of life on Earth.

Perhaps the seal is transmitting a shot of the memory of her time in the great depths of the ocean that she will always carry within her, but now she is ready and prepared for something new and unknown, and so full of potential.

As she emerges and is embraced by her familiar, she is reminded that she now carries the sacred medicine of the Seal within her... the medicine of deep intuition, emotional fluidity, grace and adaptability, playfulness and joy.

She has gained tremendous wisdom and Soul depth. She has experienced great Oneness as She merged with the Unified Oceanic Field of All-That-Is.

She has experienced the realms of Universal Love that is a signature of Neptune in Pisces.

Perhaps she has also tasted the frequencies of Christ-Magdalene- Sophia consciousness within her sacred heart that is so embodied in the deep Piscean waters of Unity Consciousness.

She has learned the ways of the dream-time and how to navigate the liminal spaces in between the worlds.

She has swam in the great waters of the Collective Unconscious and is now ready to deepen her conscious awareness and to individuate as the unique being she is... clearly defined and undeniably authentic.

She now brings all this wisdom with her now married deep within her soul.

Through her time in the depths of the ocean she has also developed a profound connection to the lunar energy of the Divine Feminine and the wisdom of the changing tides,
and she now trusts, with more faith, in the natural seasons and cycles of life.

She has learned to listen to the still deep inner voice of her Soul to guide her now through life.

Like the Seal she has learned to walk between the worlds...
between the worlds of oceanic depths and the shores of the Earth in that transitional liminal border space in between.
She has been prepared and initiated now and is ready to shed her seal skin like the Silkies, those mythical shapeshifting creatures of Irish, Scottish and Norse folklore.

This is so aligned with the ending of the Year of the Snake isn't it?

I also must mention that this Sabian Symbol also points to the the Rise of the Divine Feminine that many of us are experiencing at this most crucial and pivotal moment in time on our Planet.

This time when the nourishing and compassionate energies of the Divine Mother, and the power and wisdom of the Goddess are so needed on our Planet.

There is no mistaking it that She is so, so needed to rise up within each one of us, no matter what gender body we inhabit.

So as Neptune prepares to cross this liminal threshold of 0 Aries, can you feel the rise of the sacred feminine within you?

How do you feel about shedding your seal skin so you can emerge in a whole new human form in your life?

How can you carry the wisdom and depth from the past 14+ years with you into a new chapter of life as you emerge anew?

How do you feel emerging from the great sea of potentiality, from the deep void of the ocean, from the womb of the Mother, from the great sea of the collective unconscious into the dawn of a whole new chapter of your life and life on our Planet??

How can you bring this wisdom of the deep feminine into your life now?

For this is a great turning point for each of us individually and for all of us as a collective humanity.

I am feeling it in the depths of my soul and in the marrow of my bones as I write.

Can you feel it too?

So as Neptune crosses the threshold and begins his journey through Aries for the next 14 years, what are your
sacred intentions?

It will be interesting for you to look at your astrological chart and to see where the 0 degree Aries point is in your birth chart.
What house is it in? Is it aspecting any of your personal planets or angles of your birth chart? This will inform you about where the turning point may be for you in your own personal life.

Begin to notice what is emerging in your conscious awareness right now?

What new seeds of your becoming are stirring deep within?
What new potentials are dawning within you?
What is longing to be expressed and created through you from the deep wisdom of your soul?

How can you invite more playfulness and joy into your life?

Are you ready to begin to take action in your life from all that you have gained and integrated over the past 14 years??

Remember 0 degrees of Aries is the dawning of the New Zodiacal Year, the new Springing forth of creation, a whole new beginning and chapter of life for all of us on Planet Earth..

It is here at this critical moment that the Yin gives way to the Yang.

The dark of night gives way to the light of day.

The dark amorphous undifferentiated gives way to the defined and the formed.

The vast infinite sea of the un-manifested potential gives way to the conscious manifestation of form.

Back to the earlier metaphor:
Let us remember what comes after our deep time in the chrysalis, after our time in the deep, dark dream-time realms...

The emergence of the Butterfly!!

So at this potent zero point of the Zodiac, at the 'Alpha and Omega' point of tremendous initiation, of endings
and powerful new beginnings... let us really experience these primal moments of birth, this portal of powerful transformation we are in right now with Neptune as we prepare to re-birth into
a whole new expression of ourselves in the world and in our lives.

We will be called now to take action, to take new positions of leadership, to be more visible in the world if this be our hearts desire and in divine alignment for our Soul.

We will be called to forge ahead into new territories in our individual lives as well as collectively as a humanity...

Called to bring new creations forth for the benefit of ALL beings at this most crucial time on our Planet.

This New Neptunian Era is bound to bring powerful cultural and generational shifts, along with new expressions of authenticity and individuality, as well as the restructuring of societal structures which Saturn will be assisting with as he crosses the 0 Aries point threshold on February 13th and then joins with Neptune on February 20th.

The old worn-out systems of the patriarchy will be dissolving to make way for the birth of new ideas, new inventions and a new kind of leadership, leadership that will be for the Highest Good of the whole, which Pluto in Aquarius will be assisting with
and making sure it gets done, as will Uranus in Gemini coming soon.

We may feel a huge push forward soon, in alignment with the
Year of the Yang Fire Horse.

There will be no holding back as we pioneer forward with a new conscious awareness of Self.

We will likely feel called into bolder and more courageous and authentic forms of self-expression in our lives and in the world.
This is sure to be a most potent movement forward.

Granted there may be inner and outer conflicts and growing pains in the process.

So remember all the wisdom you are carrying with you from the last 14 years and may it inform all your life choices.

Remember your sacred Seal Skin as you rise from the sea, and the sacred medicine of 'Seal' that is now always with you.

Remember the sacred medicine of Butterfly as you emerge from your chrysalis newly transformed and reborn.

Remember your spiritual practices and your connection with Nature to nourish, ground and sustain you.

May you act now, but with WISDOM informed by Love.

May you feel the Universal Love of Pisces integrated in your Soul so you can truly walk this Earth as an embodiment of LOVE.

May you feel the Christ Magdalene Sophia consciousness blazing within your sacred heart as you move forward into new creations and actions in your life.

May you always remember your connection with the Great Oneness and the inter-connectedness of All-Life that Neptune in Pisces has blessed us with.

May the vibrations of this sacred and powerful threshold, this powerful planetary portal of initiation bring blessings to your soul and to our world in such deep need of healing and love.

May you feel blessed.
May you feel Loved.
May you be at Peace.

May ALL being be blessed.
May all beings feel loved.
May all beings be at Peace.

So Be It and So It Is!
Blessed Be. Blessed Be.
Blessed Be ALL beings and ALL life.
Blessed Be Mother Earth and Divine Source.

With so much love flowing from my heart to yours,
Deborah Sophia
