 💜 Hello lunar lovers 💜

Happy New Moon in Gemini. Here are your journal prompts and my contemplations on the meaning of this time. This is a great time to clear your thoughts, use your voice and call in what you want.

At new moons, my intention is to help you tune in, to reflect, balance and grow, using the moon's energies to write in response to the journal prompts below, Then set intentions to make your dreams manifest. Using the Moon’s cycle supports making your intentions become real. This is why we moon journal. It helps us to know ourselves better, enjoy life and make change. What you focus on grows. Read on for how.

Shout out! Hit reply and let me know your thoughts....I would love to know how you work with this journal process. Everyone does it differently. Feel free to hit reply (it comes direct to me) and tell me what you like, don't like and any suggestions. It would be so helpful and I love hearing from you. Tell me how it benefits you and what you want more or less of. There is a text option on the podcast page too.

Guided Moon Journal is nearly one year old!

We are coming up to our first anniversary of the Guided Moon Journal. Woweee. What to do to celebrate? Hmmmm. I want to make some subtle changes, to keep my interest in my writing and to better reflect the nature-based and personal development knowledge I have to share: Moon, Self and Nature. Thoughts? More deeper reflection in the Meaning of this Moon? Perhaps a little less astrology? More seasonal and nature based practices? Maybe cultural links, e.g. Moon Deity of the Month anyone? I could simplify the journal prompts and intention making process? Maybe less prompts, 7 instead of 13? Would that be helpful / interesting to you? I would love to hear your views.

💜 Hello lunar lovers 💜

Happy Full Moon in Scorpio

What is this powerful full moon bringing up for you? I'm whizzing back from a family mission in Spain and Portugal. Scribbling this over a cafe con leche, to get to you before the moon reaches its peak tonight. In keeping with this new to full moon's theme of relationships and forgiveness, I'm so very glad to say that I have reunited with long lost family here. We begin the process of healing some intergenerational trauma, inherited patterns and ancestral wounds. Lots of love to my beautiful niece Catherine, to whom I dedicate this episode. My heart is full.

TLDR: This moon invites deep introspection and transformation, shedding old layers, intimacy, and the divine feminine. It brings emotional release, encourages authenticity and healing from past traumas. It's an ideal time for facing hidden truths, releasing what no longer serves you (bingo!), examining power dynamics, and deepening real connections through the Scorpionic qualities of intensity, truth-seeking, and emotional depth.

Meaning of this Moon

It’s a Full Moon in Scorpio, all about transformation and rebirth. We see this happening in the rest of nature too, as the season changes dramatically. In the US Farmer's Almanac, it is the Flower Moon. Here in the Northern Hemisphere, the hedgerows and meadows fizz and froth with life and energy. It is the height of spring's lushness turning into summer, for which we celebrate Beltane. In case you missed it, I've included the Beltane writing from the new moon episode in the bonus section. The full moon is the best time to celebrate!

💜 Hello lunar lovers 💜

Happy Full Moon & Eclipse in Virgo, a time of reflection, purification and release. This moon marks the beginning of a powerful eclipse season. This magnifies everything.

It’s also nearly Spring Equinox, bringing fresh new energy, to spring clean inside and out and celebrate the certain arrival of green growth, light and warmth. Ta da!

As attributed to Che Guevara: “You may cut the flowers, but it will not stop the Spring”. We need the inevitability of hope, that whatever happens, nature itself is strong, full of the power of renewal.Each moon journal, the phrase I notice I repeat the most is 'release and let go of what no longer serves' or similar. You may be fed up of hearing me say that! However.....forgive me for saying this but NOW IS THE BEST TIME TO RELEASE!This full moon eclipse is all about that.

RELEASE! RELEASE! RELEASE! RELEASE! RELEASE! RELEASE! RELEASE!

Where to begin? Don't worry, this guide shows you how....
