Moon and Jupiter in Cancer | 19 December 2013
Our capacity to love is directly related to our ability to love our self. Shedding our skin, going back to basics, having get togethers and heartfelt conversations in the home. It's been a rather busy period for many, with the year almost over, and the holidays coming. We are once again asked to redefine relationships that feel closest to heart. Honesty and simplicity can rule at this time, guiding us to keep on inspiring others as our world is filled with beautiful light and wisdom.

Moon in Leo | 21 December 2013
Focus on the positive aspects in your life. The air is once again more social with the Moon back in playful and upbeat Leo. A little drama and playfulness can add more colour and excitement into our life now. We are evolving by leaps and bounds, so this is a time to fill our heart with gratitude. Having brilliant untapped potential waiting to be explored, we get creative and get ready to make our mark on the world. Explore, dream, discover!

Moon in Virgo | 23 December 2013
Today's message comes from the Angel Feather Oracle, and the card I picked is the Black Angel Feather* "The Angels would like to encourage you to be disciplined at working through difficulties so that you can achieve freedom. Use your strong visionary ability to seek out new ideas, new beginnings and wealth. Symbols; Preparation, creative, artistic, idealistic, protection, self discipline, mystery." ○ The week begins on another good note with the Moon back in hardworking and practical Virgo. We can feel inspired to tie up loose ends in our home and working life just in time for the holidays + New Year. Whatever we think and feel can be done at the beginning of the week will be done. Just follow our inner guidance and passion to help us work our magic. Onward and upward!

May your holidays be as bright as your spirits are light. Happy Merry Moon in Libra!

Moon, North Node and Saturn in Scorpio | 28 December 2013
Today's message comes from the Vibrational Energy Oracle Cards, and the card I picked is Breathe Deeply* "You are not openly accepting the vibration from the breath of life. You have somehow blocked off your divine right to inhale deeply and fill your lungs with the life force that is yours. Take 3 deep breaths right now and clear the struggles you have inside. Breathe in the energy of life and let go of anything that no longer serves you." ○ Behind our breaths, therein lie our true feelings.

Moon in Sagittarius | 30 December 2013
Small opportunities are often the beginning of great enterprises. #Demosthenes ○ With the Moon back in hearty and optimistic Sagittarius, we can feel more energized and inspired to have new hopes for the new year. We also get a great start in making resolutions that feel more authentic and real. It's time to release and set free our creative vibration. Whatever we choose to create now can be more fitting and well timed. By sincerely listening to our inner guiding light, we are on the way to new enlightening experiences and revelations. Keyword; Liberation.

New Moon, Mercury, Pluto and Venus Rx in Capricorn | 1 January 2014
Dream about your intention for 2014. What do you want to feel? What do you want to experience? Who do you want to spend time with? #CherylRichardson ○ Super Happy New Moon and 2014! This is a year of manifesting our dreams through more practical steps. In 2013 we had learnt many lessons on what it truly means to live consciously in the higher vibrations of life. We were also able to discover and understand what will ultimately be the best for us and others in our world. With this new understanding, comes divine responsibility. Always be in the place of higher good of mankind. Take a leap of faith, have fun and trust in the future!

Moon in Aquarius | 4 January 2014
Today's message comes from the Angels of Atlantis Oracle Cards and the card I picked is Jophiel Forgiveness* "When you draw this card, Jophiel asks you to release the negative feelings of the past, to let go of the substances of the pain that stops you from living a life of unlimited joy and love. Forgiveness doesn't mean you accept inappropriate behaviour towards yourself. It means that you no longer are prepared to carry the pain of reaction within you." ○ With the Moon back in humanitarian and individualistic Aquarius, we can be reminded once again to let go of some parts of our self that are no longer relevant and embrace our true individuality. By discovering new ways to connect with our self, we will find a way of connecting deeper with the hearts and emotions of others. This is definitely the right time to call + send letters, e-mails or text messages to family, friends and new people we meet. Enjoy connecting in new ways and feel your heart enlivened.

Juno, Neptune, Chiron and the Moon in Pisces | 5 January 2014
May all beings be lovingly peaceful. #DharmaSangha ○ What have we learned lately? About life and love. The way we think, and the way we feel. . . We are awake. We are part of the awakened human beings filled with more light and love. We know who we are, what we want, what is most important to us and how to achieve it. We know who we are on a soul level, and we are no longer letting other people dictate our life and run it for us. What was previously hidden is now out in the open for us to see. We're seeing the world through new eyes, and healed more parts of our past. Soon will come new appreciation and recognition. Be open this week. Keywords; Vividness - Magick - Wisdom.

Moon in Taurus | 9 January 2014
How Do YOU Define Yourself? is the title of a TEDx Talk I recently watched on YouTube by Motivational Speaker + Author, Lizzie Velasquez. I've heard about her for quite some time but this was the first time for me to hear her speak and I was truly blown away. How simple question can be so profound. How DO we define our self? By what we do? By what we say? What we create? The way we feel? Or is there something else? The most important point she made at the talk was, "I've had a really difficult life, but that's OK. I'm going to let my goals and my success and my accomplishments define me, not my outer appearance." The more I look at her photos and videos the more I admire her bravery. Maybe someday I will get a better idea of what defines me. But today know I will always try my best to follow my heart, my passions and my inspirations to keep on doing something that can be meaningful to other people. With the Moon in generous and earthy Taurus, we can be reminded once again to be grateful for what we have. Be open to the vibrational blessings of life that are coming. They may come in many guises, but they will find ways to remind us of the happiness we once felt.

Moon in Gemini | 13 January 2014
Our soul is guiding us to stand in our light and speak our truth. Speaking + taking action from the heart, loving unconditionally, and going on a vision quest. Remembering that a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. It's time to follow through on our commitments and goals. By figuring out what can be done in the short run, we can get a clearer picture of what can be possible for us in the long run. Always be open to love and life, have trust, and honour your emotions.

I think this will be my last update on Astrology for now. I feel I have expressed many inspirations I wanted to
explore through writing in a way that's been truly enlightening for me, and right now I'm in a time when I
need to put more focus on other creative projects that I've been working on. I am happy with the
experience and looking forward to writing again sometime :) PS. There will be a Full Moon in
Cancer on January 15th marking the culmination of all that we've learnt since the
New Moon on January 1st. New Year resolutions, new thoughts and
feelings, it's time for another personal transformation.
