What does it mean to live from the heart? What does it mean to chase after, and long for, and claim that liminal space inside our beings that abides consistently in the flow of creativity? Holy Play. And what does it feel like to be 100 percent genuine… true to who we are? What if every interaction, every action, and every part of our daily lives was completely infused with the love that flows through us unconditionally when we are aligned with our hearts?
Wouldn’t that feel like pure joy? And isn’t this way of living what we are striving for? Isn’t that the way of giving that we aspire to? Welcome to the Lion’s domain!
The Full Moon in Leo is a culmination of themes and events that were merely seedlings back in July. Back then creative gems stirred in our hearts, and they needed to be tended to in a way that would allow them to blossom in a garden that was more than a weekend inspirational project. The work was bringing the discipline, maturity, and long term mindset that Saturn represents, so that when the monsoon arrives our garden doesn’t wash away. (Saturn opposite the Moon)
We’re being encouraged to become a version of ourselves that knows the difference between true joy, and momentary happiness. True joy doesn’t leave when difficulties arise. True joy can plan for the future, and learn from the past, but lives in the moment. In the present moment we continually ask, “What is true for me now?”
Square Uranus in Taurus, we can expect some parts of who we thought we were to fall away. Where does true security come from? We can expect some of the stable things in our lives that we mistook for our identity, or security, to reveal themselves as no longer a part of our journey. This might feel destabilizing. It may require an undoing of mental constructs and perceptions that we’ve held for a very long time. (Uranus trine Pluto/Mercury in Capricorn) There is freedom in the release.
Perhaps it's time to use our courage to speak of the wounding, to name the fears, to say when we disagree, and to voice who we are. (Mars in Gemini sextile Jupiter/Chiron, Sun in Aquarius) To gently, bravely, honestly be ourselves. Not who we wish we were, not who we’re afraid of becoming; simply, magnificently, who we are. (Leo Moon sextile Mars in Gemini, square Uranus in Taurus, and Trine Jupiter in Pisces) That is healing, (Jupiter conjunct Chiron) that is instinctual, authentic living (Uranus in Taurus) and *that* allows us to live in limitless creative potential with Spirit. (Uranus sextile Venus in Pisces, Mercury sextile Neptune in Pisces)
One more thing... don't forget to play and Roaaarrrr! : )
What is your version of playful? Send it out!
