 Moon in Cancer | September 17 2014 
Your experiences open your mind's eye. Our mind's eye is a part of our divine soul. And as we get more in touch with the light of the soul, through our experiences, we open and awaken our mind's eye more and more. With the Moon in Cancer sextiling Venus in Virgo + trining Chiron in Pisces, we can understand better all the lessons we've learnt through our emotions and find a way to apply our new-found wisdom and knowledge to our everyday life. It's time to let go of our self-judgment and blame, as well as the challenges we've held tightly in our hands. Open our arms, mind, and heart to new life experiences.

 Moon in Scorpio | September 27 2014 
Sometimes the answers you're looking for lie in between the lines. The Moon is in Scorpio and we can be guided well at this time by feelings of the heart. Our emotions and feelings can reveal to us clues that our eyes and ears can't provide. What signs have we been receiving lately from our emotions? These signs can let us know what we previously couldn't see, and where to go from this point forward. Begin listening more to our own intuition, and don't be fooled by the games of the mind. It's a wonderful time to quiet our mind and follow our heart. See beyond the obvious, and notice the signs we receive as validation that we are on the path to a more awakened awareness.

I want my life to be ___________ ___________ ________ The Moon is in Gemini and it's time to communicate. With Mercury - Gemini's ruling planet going retrograde in the sign of Libra, it may take extra effort to communicate in a clear way what our heart and mind are trying to say. With a little patience and open mind, we can find more effective ways to express what we really want to say. We are now safely guided to make the changes we want to make and to go forward with our hopes, goals and dreams. Know that by remembering what we truly want from life, we can find new clarity of vision and reawaken the power of intention within us. Pose questions to the universe, then take note of the energy, space and consciousness we feel. Dismiss all negative patterns from our life that can prevent the free flow of abundance and happiness, and watch as we unfold future moments that are filled with better feeling words and outcomes.
