We have several powerful events converging towards the end of December 2022. 

1) Our Sun lines up with the Galactic Center on December 18-20. This alignment provides us the opportunity for downloads directly from the center of our galaxy! Conjoined with these energies is the Kuiper Belt Object Varda. She is known as Queen of the Stars, and is supporting us in receiving these upgrades of consciousness. 

2) On December 21, we have the alignment of four directions on the Winter Solstice, something I will be covering in a live gathering on 12/21 @ 11am PST. The link to join my email list to get access to this gathering is here as well as in the image at the end of this post. For now, I will offer that the four directions are always active, but are particularly active on equinoxes and solstices. The gathering is titled Solstice Energy Alchemy Healing Circle, all levels of experience (including no experience :) are welcome. 

3) On the 23rd of this month we have a Super New Moon in the sign of Capricorn. This is the second of five new moons taking place at 1 degree of their sign, one of many signals pointing us towards new beginnings and rebirth. Luna and Sun are conjoined (working together) and squaring Jupiter at zero degrees of Aries. As I mention in the podcast, squaring energy provides us with appropriate challenges and information to support us in raising our vibration and consciousness. Jupiter at zero degrees of Aries is all about new beginnings (Aries is the first sign of the zodiac and zero degrees is the first degree of the first sign). Signaling the penultimate of new beginnings! The challenges we face are likely about our own sense of self: worthiness, fears, long term blocks that are coming up to be forever cleared. 
​
Jutpier as the planet of expansion ultimately wants and supports us in creating the very best version of our past stories and fears. Things that seem like our deepest fears and/or the things we've been hiding from are actually not to be feared; they can be brought into broad daylight and understood as valuable training experiences. This is deep stuff, but also these energies can now be transmuted and upgraded without much work on our part! All that we need to do is to be willing to face our fears. 

When we look at the charts for these two events we can see them dancing together, although seemingly on opposite sides of the chart, balancing and harmonizing the energies that are present. Let's look first at the chart for the Solstice at left, we see the sun at 27 degrees of Sagittarius conjunct the Galactic Center, but what might go unnoticed is that Varda is also conjunct the Galactic Center at 25 degrees of Sagittarius. Simply by joining with the Galactic Center, she is able to inform the Galactic Center, which in turn informs our Sun. As the one who created all the stars, this is not only her stead, but this is Varda's divine role in helping humanity ascend. ​

Next, at right the chart for the Super New Moon: here we see Manwe conjunct Jupiter squaring the Sun, Moon and just 1 degree beyond the square are Varda and the Galactic Center, still informing this new moon so to speak. 

It is telling that these two are dancing together during this powerful time, lighting up the squaring/challenging action in unison. As if to remind us of cosmic harmony and balance. 

Finally, to invite you to join me for a live/in person healing circle at 12 noon PST on 12/21/22. We will be incorporating basic alchemical principles into our healing circle. 
It is quite fitting to do this on the Solstice as the four directions are powerfully charged at this time. To join live you can sign up for my email list here. You can also find the recording on my youtube channel within 24 hour here. 

On December 7 2022 at 8:07pm pacific time we have a full moon in the sign of Gemini (this corresponds to 4:07am UK time). This full moon is packed full of energy supporting us in recognizing our limiting beliefs and rising above them. Now, that might sound like an ongoing theme, because it has been!

The nuance here is that inthe past "raising our vibration" or recognizing outdated patterns may have felt like energetic heavy lifting, and now with the Gemini Full moon it will likely feel much easier. The words that kept coming through as I was recording the podcast were: "Quantum leap forward." We are going to be able to instantly shift our perspective, our beliefs, our vibrations to something higher and better!

I discuss in the podcast the Kuiper Belt object, Altjira, as being in conjunction (in support of and in sync with) the moon in Gemini. Luna is at 16 degrees of Gemini, which in numerology this is the energy of 7. 7 represents wholeness and perfection and is associated with ascension and the ability to move above and beyond any obstacles in life. Altjira is at 17 degrees of Gemini, with reduces to 8 in numerology. 8 is the number of infinity, symbolizing infinite energy and possibilities, also the cycles of time and the recycling and upcycling of energy. 

Altjira is an aboriginal term which has been translated by anthropologists and ethnographers to mean 'dreaming' or 'to dream.' It is worth noting that our current definition of dreaming is much more limited than what the aboriginals may have understood. I offer in the podcast that the dream time, which is also associated with songlines, is available to us every moment of every day and is an essential and powerful part of our role in the process of creation. altjira also means ‘eternal’, and so the idea of dreaming also includes the ‘seeing’ of eternal things during 'the dreamtime.'

Altjira was also understood as a deity or primordial being who brought all things into physical form, everything from the landscape, to the plants, animals and people... EVERYTHING was understood to be created by altjira and to also have altjira existing within it. 

The Rainbow Serpent or Rainbow Snake is a common deity often seen as the creator God, known by numerous names in different Australian Aboriginal languages. It is a common motif in the art and religion of many Aboriginal Australianpeoples. Much like the typical mother goddess archetype, the Rainbow Serpent is no different. The Serpent creates land and diversity for the Aboriginal people but when disturbed can bring great chaos.

There are many names and stories associated with the serpent, all of which communicate the significance and power of this being within Aboriginal mythology, which includes the worldview commonly referred to as 'the dreaming' or 'the dreamtime.'
The dreaming (or dreamtime) or stories tell of the great spirits and totems during creation, in animal and human form that moulded the barren and featureless earth. The Rainbow Serpent came from beneath the ground and created huge ridges, mountains, and gorges as it pushed upward. The Rainbow Serpent is understood to be of immense proportions and inhabits deep permanent waterholes and is in control of life's most precious resource, water. In some Aboriginal cultures, the Rainbow Serpent is considered to be the ultimate creator of everything in the universe and is represented in rock art up to 6000 years old. Below are some rock art images of Rainbow Serpent. Enjoy!

In sync with this Full Moon I am offering a free healing circle for those on my email list. We will gathering on zoom, I will give a brief presentation of energy healing and my experience of both doing healing and teaching healing. Then we will move into a group energy healing session. Please join my email list to get access to this event and the recording.
