New Moon 22°44′ Gemini – June 13, 2018
A New Moon is Nature’s directive for each of us to expand upon our unique potential. It is up to us to review the energetic opportunity and decide to set an intention.
Before our embodiment, I imagine we were traversing endless passageways and landscapes of time/space. Living other lives as other names in other places and following the ways of the culture, our ancestors, and the tug in our hearts. If you believe in past lives, that is.
I do.
We are wild ones. The more we pretend otherwise the more twisted things become.
If we try to pretend we are not angry, we blow up when we least expect it. When we try to ignore energies like attraction, they can grow into a giant that drives us into situations that lack grace and integrity. If we instead tap into our wildness we can experience our insights and emotions as they come. We can see things as they are and see ourselves as we are, but we have to be fearless enough to let our wild self out.
A New Moon is a time to set our intentions for the upcoming month. By understanding the choices we make while the energies are playing out, we can ensure that our actions will provide the positive results we are looking for.
Scorpio has a reputation for being the “bad-ass” sign of the zodiac. It is represented by three symbols; Scorpion, Eagle, and Phoenix.
My first introduction into Swara Yoga was in India, attending Yoga School in an immersion course. Prior to my first induction, I had no previous awareness that my nostrils took turns being dominant or that this had anything to do with which tasks I could perform more effectively or how my psychology was affected by such. The thought had just never crossed my mind, nor the wisdom, my path.
