Mabon, Autumnal Equinox & More

How did the New Moon in Virgo feel for you? Is it a time of setting new intentions, or more a time of release? While there are traditional ideas on how to work with major moon phases, what matters most is what the energy is bringing up for you and how is it affecting your lived experience. For many of us, this feels more like a time of harvesting, taking stock of where we are, what's working and what's not, and how we might refine a certain area of our lives. All is important and welcome. Let your intuition be your guide.
 
In just a week's time, we will be transitioning into the autumnal magic of Libra season. No sign better symbolizes the balance of darkness and light achieved at the peak of the equinox, that moment of perfect alignment. In pagan traditions, the equinox is known as Mabon, and signifies the second harvest in the cycle of the planting year. Light and life are dwindling, and it is a time of gratitude, reflection, and preparation to ultimately clear away the fallen fruits to give up to the bonfire. In the flickering light of the flames, we are encouraged to turn inward and engage with our shadows.
 
Speaking of shadows, we have finally emerged from Mercury Retrograde! While many people fear retrogrades, it largely depends on how you regard what comes up. We all want things to work out the way we want when we want. If they don’t, we might complain, feel defeated, or find someone or something to blame. Instead, we can choose to observe the perceived setback and ask – was our planning hasty? Are we pushing due to impatience or fear of missing out? Is the tension at home with our partner urging us to revisit a long-simmering issue? 
 
And then sometimes things just happen and it’s not about you, and learning to meet it with a bit of grace and acceptance is the best course of action. Yes, your computer isn't working or your kid is picking a fight --- you can flip out or you can take a pause. Why am I so upset? Am I scared? Angry? Anxious? Hurt?  Try to identify the root emotion. You might have felt similar discomfort with the recent Venus Retrograde, which has mercifully passed. Venus is a very personal energy, so all our tender spots around desirability, relationships, and prosperity felt very poked! Again, your thoughts and feelings during this time are powerful feedback for you and can tell you so much about what still needs attention, compassion, and possible development. You are not defined by your responses, but they are brilliant clues to the multifaceted kaleidoscope that is YOU.
