A threshold of fullness, gratitude, and illumination. The moment when the Earth stands fully turned toward the Sun and the light reaches its greatest expression. Something in us responds.

Beltane, whose past and present significance is deeply steeped in ritual rites of sexuality and fertility, celebrates the height of spring, and the coming of summer, the earth has warmed, and May 1st is astrologically the end of darkness in the sun cycle, when we gain more and more light each day.
As the earth warms and life surges forward, we are invited to cross our own thresholds and participate consciously in the season of becoming.

In a lunar eclipse, the earth momentarily blocks the illumination from the sun that creates a full moon, resetting the current emotional cycle. Solar eclipses reset the energy field or archetypal configurations, where as, lunar eclipses are culminations of emotional cycles that have run their course. Both encourage us to evolve.

There’s a power that lives in the space ‘between,’ that subtle instant when something ends, and what follows next hasn’t yet begun. This is a beautiful and necessary space for growth. In the spaces in between, all possibilities exist, and none have been chosen.

Earlier this month on September 7, we had a full moon lunar eclipse, which was all about completion, letting go, and leaving the past behind. This energy is still lingering but will shift as the partial solar eclipse energy takes over around Sept 21. If lunar eclipses are all about endings, solar eclipses are all about new beginnings. Read more about what this means for you in the upcoming months.
