Hello Beauties,
The energy is incredibly calm today as we are experiencing a full solar eclipse on the New Moon in Leo. This is a turning point. The future is still unknown, which can be exciting or terrifying. Excitement will open you up to possibilities, fear will only close the doors. Which story will you choose? It is all very unfamiliar. We are stepping into a portal as we release everything from the past and step into a brand new way of Being. Choose wisely. What do you have to lose?
The 8/8/8 portal we had over the weekend brought everything into focus of what we have been manifesting and envisioning to expand and come through. That being said, it is also a reminder to be aware of what is blocking you from your wealth and abundance. I'm not only talking about financial freedom, but the people you surround yourself with, your everyday life and how you treat yourself and those around you. This energy is offering abundance beyond your wildest dreams with Jupiter expanding in Leo.
Leo rules the heart and amplifies your life force and vibrance to recognize what makes you feel fully alive. What is the project you can't stop thinking about, conversations that spark something in you or when time becomes an illusion when you are completely present. It's the quiet knowing that this life matters. This is your time to shine. What does that look and feel like?
Allow this energy to fill you up and give your nervous system the reprieve it so desperately needs. When your nervous system feels safe and secure, life is able to fill in where you have already planted your seeds and cultivate your dreams.
Spend some time alone to feel into this beautiful energy and life coming for you. Sit in silence and see what this life you are living can become. We have an opportunity to create anything and everything we want. It will require a check in on your nervous system. When you envision the life you want, how does it feel? Do you automatically start second guessing and find excuses why it can't happen. For just a moment sit with this life you want. Imagine everything, the feeling, the environment, the people, everything. Then send it off with a blessing...and so it is. Now is the part where you have to allow it to Be. No more worry, regret, shame, guilt, only excitement and focus. You may feel a little crazy or naive at times when you start living "as if" it is already happening, it is always right around the corner.
Eclipses exacerbate old wounds mending the gap between your past and moving on with the New You. Your old stories are coming up to be released, not re-lived. They are no longer yours to recount. Excavate every room. Remove what is blocking the door you need to walk through. No one else needs to validate your life anymore. Follow your heart. What's going to light you up with this anticipation of possibilities?
Work with this New Moon in Leo energy. Where has your life force been flowing? Where have you been focusing your energy? Get out in nature and let it teach you what you need. Light a candle, envision your dreams, write them down and give gratitude to what is showing up in this life. So many synchronicities and de je veux are occuring. Pay attention. We are receiving signs from the universe on a daily. When we are so in our head or embedded in the problem at hand, we miss the subtle secrets only meant for us that are being shown. A license plate, a song, an old acquaintance, anything that resonates with you and what you are thinking or feeling at the time. Be aware. It is happening. Ask your guides for what you need, they are always listening and waiting.
Never give up the promise that life is working for you on every level. Notice what shifts...When we connect with what genuinely inspires us we bring more creativity, generosity and more inspiration into the world. What calls you forward and makes you feel more alive?
This eclipse is bringing to attention all the ways you have been playing small and dimming yourself to not take up too much space. This Leo energy is gently guiding you to take the stage and giving you the confidence to shine. This is an opportunity to shift. You can't ask or expect your life to move forward while still being attached to what was and reaching backwards. We have been clearing out our proverbial house for quite a while. Give it grace and gratitude and welcome in a brand new way of Being moving forward. All is well...
Become all that you have always felt you are, but never dared to dream or even thought possible. It is so much more than you could ever imagine. It doesn't come through with sparklers and confetti, but a silent knowing with a path opening up through the trees. Opportunities will appear out of nowhere. We just have to be aware and brave enough to walk through. Trust yourself. You have all the power and gifts to create anything into this new reality. Make it so...
Enjoy the quiet nuance of this eclipse and New Moon Leo energy. Allow it to bathe you in possibilities while you sit with your sweet self. Also, while the night sky is in full view, check out the Perseids meteor shower and never miss a chance to look up. Have a beautiful rest of your week lovelies!
So much love and appreciation,
Colette
