Moon rises high overhead
And light from HER hand
spills down like droplets
of soft rain.
Stars sparkle in the
velvet of HER night
cloak and darkness
beckons to be held
in HER embrace.
All of earth moves
in the rise and fall
of Her breath and
the great waters
are quickened under
Her watchful eye.
I sit in the silence
of moonlit night
and weep at the
profound beauty
of Luna’s rise.
For in this moment
of moonlight’s grace
SHE and I are one.
Monday heralds the first of the Full Moons of the calendar year 2012. It is a full moon in Cancer- the Moon being the planetary ruler of this astrological sign. Cancer is also a Cardinal sign- meaning that it’s energies are that of beginnings or first outpourings so that something more concrete may be attained. So, opportunities abound for healing, strengthening and fine tuning your emotional SELF.
As I sit on my porch gazing up at the moon, now almost Full, the magnetic pull is palpable and I am reminded of the deep waters that are held within me and how they are reflections of the moon’s tides. I am called to review and assess what the energies of this New Year will bring and how I may more fully embrace my intuitive and compassionate nature. My birthday is also just a few weeks away, so this time of the year always brings out a more reflective side of me. And, the time feels ripe for gathering up and drawing inward what needs to be nurtured in the months ahead.
What calls to you as the fullness of the Moon takes hold? And, what areas of your being will you allow HER Light to pull to the surface for a closer look?
Blessings of Moon Light’s Magick!
