WATER

In the direction of the West we surrender to the elemental power of water in the waning cycle of the moon. After stoking the Fire we surrender to the alchemy that is born by combining these elemental forces. We invite the intention to purify, clear and soften ~ releasing what has been shown to us in the apex of the moon cycle. 

Release

The intangible threshold before a new cycle begins

Welcome to Pisces Season in the final quarter of the waning moon cycle. We move from the fixed air realms of the disrupter and cosmic community visionary (Aquarius) to the mutable sensitive, creative and mystic water sign (Piscies). This sign is emotionally connected. As a mutable sign this is all about being open to change. Ruled by Jupiter it is here to expand our horizons. As the twelfth and final sign of the wheel of the zodiac this sign denotes endings and in the cyclical nature of life new beginnings. This is Water that clears and dissolves. A cleansing and renewal. This season wants to advise us to drop into our emotional bodies and swim in our intuitive nature. This is the season that after a long winter, it can potentially make us feel like we are treading water or completely water logged. It pushes against our need to strive forward confidently and asks us to examine everything through a softer lens.

The moon will transition signs between Scorpio and Sagittarius at this final waning crescent. A welcome uplift from deep moon mother waters to the activated fire seeker. Our creative projects may be able to feel like they get the next shift in their birthings under this moon transit.

We have reached the end of our 13 Moons journey for this spiral. It is with great gratitude that I honour each and every one of your journeys with me here round the wheel. Thank you for your presence and dedication to the path. I hope that it has served you and stoked your own hearth fire. I hope that your onward journey is given more depth and awareness by its presence. May you serve from your own unique Sacred Heartistry in the greater interconnected web of life.

We allow ourselves to be in the diffuse water realms of that which has been before and to dream in that which wishes to take form.

Ritual

This is ideally a night time ritual before bed. The season of mutable waters asks us to explore our inner and outer waters. Consider creating a ritual bath in two parts - consider seaweed, salt, or whichever appropriate plant ally will support you. As you bathe, try to rewind your thoughts over the last 12 months and see the journey you have taken. When you have travelled all that you need to and are ready to release, consciously allow the water to drain out around you. Then, either refill your bath or take a shower. Be present with the spaciousness that Piscies season brings to be receptive. It may feel really good but it could equally feel quite tricky to live through the final month or so of the feminine, yin time of the year. As ever we seek to return to our natural rhythms and be the antidote for our great mother. Living in alignment with this great teacher and healer.

Sending connection of hearth light from my own to yours as we begin the turning once more to the East, the energies of the maiden and the element of Air
