Lady Jesamyn Angelica’s Oracular Musings for the Week of October 18th
Sun in Libra into Sun in Scorpio
Season: Fall Equinoxtide
Moon Passages:
10/18: Waning Crescent Moon in Libra
10/19: Dark Moon in Libra
10/20: New Moon in Libra and void-of-course Libra; Waxing Crescent Moon in void-of-course Libra and in Scorpio
10/21-10/25: Waxing Crescent Moon in Scorpio and void-of-course Scorpio, and in Sagittarius
There is a lot of movement and transitions here for us this week, Beloveds. The Dark Moon gives way to the New Moon in Libra on Tuesday morning, and the Sun moves from airy Libra into watery Scorpio on Wednesday night. It is the last full week of the tides of the Autumnal Equinox Season.
Another ending has arrived—or is arriving—Dear Ones. Yes, this can be painful and grief-filled, yet it is time to wake up and face reality. Hiding away from what is true does not serve our highest good, and it will prevent us from following through on the sacred missions we have set for ourselves.
So drag yourself out of bed, take a cleansing shower or bath, and release that which must go. Choose a candle in a color that calls to you, and bless it in the name of that which has died. Light it with reverence and speak your truth into the flame. Allow the candle to burn down and turn your attention completely to the present, the holy moment of now.
Beloveds, the plant medicine of the Chiming Bells is here to bring us hope and inspiration, to stoke our joy and our optimism, and to grant us peace and renewal. This card offers us this affirmation of life: “I open my heart to the loving energy of the Divine Mother. I joyously celebrate my physical existence.”
