Weekly Energetic Weather: Feb 23rd - March 1st
Overall Themes
Hold. Your. Nerve. This has been my inner mantra/subconscious statement since the eclipse hit a week ago. We are in a jolting capsule of unpredictable change. What needs to come to an end, will. What needs to begin or start anew, will. A lot of it won’t make logical sense right now, though you may feel the intuitive accuracy in your body. Let it ride. You don’t actually need to DO anything. In fact, I would advise stepping off the gas as much as possible during this time and allowing yourself to cruise through. If a decision requires action, do it, but know that it could go on a journey before it actually lands.
Relationships, career, home, opportunities, trajectories, appetites, health states, government, and more are all available for change right now. This could feel chaotic or just straight up frustrating if you are trying to maintain control or even a semblance of it. There’s no good or bad, right or wrong in this time. It’s about closing your eyes, softening your breath, opening up your hands, and allowing whatever needs to go to go and whatever needs to come to come and holding none of it to merit until the end of March when this season closes. Then we can shake off the dust and look around at where we’ve landed. From here, we will be able to move forward with more confidence and steadiness.
Until this time - HOLD YOUR NERVE. What goes may come back, what comes, may not stay. Let it all play out. Give it time.
Pisces season is about surrender. flow. floating. vision casting. belief. faith. release. love. How can you weave more of this into your approach to life right now? I know. Very very counterintuitive to the growing energy and fiest inside of you thus far this year. Your spirit has come back online, and you want results, you want action, you want movement, but first, you must close out what is still hanging on, reset what is stagnant, and make space to fully embrace what is attempting to enter. This requires patience. Patience right now looks like: learning to allow, and even stoke, our internal fire, our passion and aliveness, while also honoring the purity and potency of our fully realized end desire. The temptations will be high to burst and take some rash action to force a result or just to relieve built-up tension. Don’t let yourself get here. The key is to channel this newfound energy and passion into a creative expression - dance, sing, talk, act, feel, cry, run, swim, row, ski, laugh - move, move, move. Get the energy flowing towards channels that use it well and bless you as a bonus!
I fully understand the battle with internal intensity and lack of healthy expression. I was never taught how to hold my fire in life. I was told to squelch it or at least to hide it, put it away. So I did. I let it die, and anytime it popped its head back up I would press it back down again. I would say that most women receive this same messaging, but there are definitely men who have been told the same. We are guided to be still, to be less. To be chill. To not be too much. And while most of you may be thinking about this in reference to your body or voice, I also think it applies to simple joy and zest for life. Excitement, hope, anticipation, passion, joy, love – these emotions and states are powerful and as a result taught to be dangerous by those who wish to keep us out of the ring. I say - Nope. Turn it back up. Full blast. Be completely ALIVE.
If this terrifies you, at the core, I can say from experience, it’s worth it. The journey of returning to your aliveness, to allowing passion and intensity and joy and love to drive you, will be a bumpy ride at first, but it’s the healthiest and most energetically aligned act you can take for yourself this year. You’re ultimately coming back online. Returning to who God made you to be. It’ll be challenging. It’ll be messy, but all rebirths are. We learn through experience, and experience-gain requires embracing imperfection and loss of control. I can promise you this: if you keep moving forward, you will find your ground again. I can also promise that it’ll take longer than you want, but it’ll be genuinely worth the saga. Hang in there, cause once you find your footing, you’ll learn the ultimate skill required to have a life of impact and influence.
I can safely say it’s one of my biggest life lessons. With potent fire and earth in my makeup, I am here to master the art of stable intensity – the holding of an intense internal burn while moving with steadiness, intentionality, thoughtfulness, and grace. I come from a long line of strong women who had their own struggles with wrangling this balance, so now it’s my turn to attempt, and I’m determined to take it as far as I can go in my lifetime.
Do you feel this tension between aliveness, passion, and action, and the call to hold steady, to surrender and to flow with grace? It’s a beast of a challenge we are being called into this week, but I know you can do it. Roll this over and over in your mind: Hold. Your. Nerve. Something beautiful is building within this fog.
Moon Schedule
As a little reminder. We care about the energy of the moon because it directly impacts our bodies. The pull of the moon’s magnetic field on the water of our earth and in our bodies (we are 65% water) shifts how our cells communicate to each other, which affects organ function, which affects our energy and hormone expression, which affects our perspective and nervous system response for the day... We feel and live out the influence of the moon, whether we want to acknowledge it or not. The “personality” of the moon, plays into how and where it hits us. It’s both woo woo and yet not. Lean into it and see what holds true for you over time.
February 23rd ~ Moon Enters Gemini
Talk, talk, talk. Let it out. Gemini rules the speech centers of the brain, your lungs, breath, shoulders, arms, wrists, and hands. I have a lot of Gemini in my mapping so I’m laughing bc I’m picturing me talking and wildly demonstrating everything with my arms and hands. This is the energy under this moon. Talk it out. Breathe it out. Move it out. This is not the time to stay quiet or hold your tongue or cocoon. Get social. Your body needs you to express to stay healthy right now! If you feel a sore throat come on while doing this, it’s a sign your body has lots to clear and needs some love. Gargle sea-salted water 2 x daily, drink my immune tonic (email me), keep your throat and back of neck warm, and get extra hours of sleep!
February 25th - Moon Enters Cancer & Mercury Retrograde in Pisces
Cancer is the ultimate nurturing energy, so spend these days giving your body extra nutrients - really focus on eating hardy vitamin and mineral-rich foods. This is a lovely time to get a gentle massage or lymphatic treatment or to start adding in smaller and gentler at-home practices. I love the chi swing, heel tapping (literally just lift your heels and let them land over and over again) 100x each morning, theracane neck work, and lymph zone patting (10 hardy pats on R and L side of traps, wrists, inner elbow, armpit, just below hips, behind knees and in foot arch).
Mercury retrograde is not something to be feared, just noted. Where is Pisces in your birth chart? Use the whole house system to see which house is ruled by the energy of Pisces and then chat gpt the themes of this house to see what areas of your life may have some hiccups until March 30th. Pisces rules the water in the body - especially intercellular, so the lymphatic recommendations above are helpful everyday supports, as well as consuming higher doses of potassium and magnesium.
Extra Note: around February 27th you may feel an enhanced restlessness and will need to really be active and channel your passion or else this may be the day you explode… you may also notice this same energy in the humans around you, so take care of yourself, be safe.
February 28th - Moon Enters Leo
The HEART. Circulation, blood flow, brain clarity, energy are all impacted by the strength of the heart. If you have a healthy rhythm and flow, you’ll feel good under this moon. If not, symptoms - messages from the body - will arise! Notice if your skin or face is more red or you’re short of breath, or your feet and hands are cold… all requests for help! One of the easiest and best ways to support your heart is through getting your B vitamins in – all of them. Your B levels need to be replenished daily since they are water-soluble. Supplement AND eat foods rich in them: bee bread or royal jelly, grass-fed/finished beef/bison/elk, seafood, and dark green lettuces are a good start. For quality B-vitamin supplements, choose yeast-free brands, like Thorne. As you all know, I am a supplement savant, so feel free to stop by for guidance as needed.
Heads Up: March 1st we start feeling the intense energy of the Virgo Full Moon and Solar Eclipse hitting on March 3rd that will close out this eclipse season that we started last week with the Full Moon in Pisces. Check out your Virgo and Pisces placements for this impact or schedule time with me to review it all together. This is a big moment.
