  • BeSimply...Reflect Honor You {Sol + Luna Full Moon 6}

    "The moon is most happy
    When it is full.

    And the sun always looks
    Like a perfect minted gold coin.

    That was just Polished
    And placed in flight
    By God’s playful Kiss.

    And so many varieties of fruit
    Hang plump and round

    From branches that seem like a Sculptor’s hands.

    I see the beautiful curve of a pregnant belly
    Shaped by a soul within,

    And the Earth itself,
    And the planets and the Spheres-

    I have gotten the hint:

    There is something about circles
    The beloved likes.

    Hafiz,
    Within the Circle of a Perfect One

    There is an Infinite Community
    Of Light" Hafiz

    From: I heard God laughing, poems of Hope and Joy
    renderings of Hafiz, by Daniel Ladinsky

    Every lunar cycle the "moon" reflects light and shadow. We have reached the FULL moon in a month currently identified as August middle of the 6th Lunar Cycle. A time the the Full Moon shines bright and invites you into your inner landscape and outer landscape simultaneously. Nature all around you welcomes you to retain harmony, transform, listen and GO. We are slowly coming to the end of the elemental dance with the yin (water) and yang (fire) energies on planet earth. The dance between these two elements continues to invite us to master within and without. I invite all my brothers and sisters to take a soft gentle sit with the divine melody that flows from your soul.
     
    An opportunity to transcend all things within the possibility of life. Well being for all. As inclined, move into action from the NEW. Leaving old patterns BEHIND.

    The Full Moon Moon Arrives(d) today, August 11(12), 2022 at 6:52 PDT (-7 UTC) The(Summer)Masculine and(Winter)Feminine are still here in their full expression and force. Soon they will be slowly falling way...Sip it UP! We are being invited to make choices for the benefit of self and all. It is with your heart, breath and awareness that you too can shine a bright light for all of humanity. Hold your heart with great certainty, consciousness and wakefulness.

    As you lead into this meditation, welcome yourself to settle deeply into your soul with your heart leading you into the alchemy that exists within you. This inner wisdom will guide you at this juncture in your life into the next present moment and your future you are weaving for you and all your relations. Create the space to reflect, be and then move into full action...committing to Listen Deeply and Let GO of your old ways. Stepping into a new.

    "The greatness of a man is not in how much wealth he acquires, but in his integrity and his ability to affect those around him positively." Bob Marley

    May Peace be within you. My love and blessings are sent to each and everyone of you.

    About Christianna

    Painting is a love of mine that was passed down from my grandmother Evelyn, an award winning watercolorist

    I remember sitting at the table with her while she taught us grandkids how to paint. The smells, the textures, and the awe of watching color turn to life in front of you. 

    Painting through the art of synesthesia is painting with not just my creative abilities, but my with my entire being. 

    Creating in this medium quickly became a passion of mine when I began to hear the testimonies of recipients at the receiving of their own personal artwork. 

    There's something about trusting another individual to listen to their senses; spirit, and allow that voice to guide them into a piece of art unique to only you. 

    It would be my privilege to paint for you, your family, friends. Thank you for being here.
