Awakening codes of Divine will, harmonic purpose, and radiant embodiment.
August opens with the breath of destiny on its lips. The sacred 8:8 Lion’s Gate—cosmic pulse of Sirius and the Great Central Sun—aligns with your heart to initiate a higher octave of remembrance. This is not just a portal. It is a frequency gate, an ignition point in your soul’s architecture where memory and mission braid into one golden flame.
You are not walking through time anymore—you are weaving it. With each step, you unseal codices written long ago by the Oversoul—codes of Divine will, harmonic purpose, and radiant embodiment. This is the month when the soul makes a vow—not to try harder, but to be truer, more resonant and align with the soul self.
Restoring Sovereign Coherence
The Sirian and Lyran councils are especially close now, guiding you through the frequency bands of remembrance, creativity, and sovereign service. August is an alchemical month: Fire becomes Gold, and Truth becomes the Path.
The Sirian Sapphire Flame is working through the solar plexus now—clearing shame, guilt, and all stories of powerlessness. Call it in to dissolve cords of control or coercion. Feel your soul reclaim direction, without domination.
The Lyran Golden Flame reminds you that joy is your inheritance. The more you play, the more you remember. Invite this flame to rise in your creative body—paint, sing, move, tend your temple.
Together, these star frequencies realign your will and love as One—empowering your embodiment as a Creator.
Frequency Overwhelm & Nervous System Sensitivity
As Lion’s Gate light intensifies, your nervous system may feel overstimulated, anxious, or weary. You are recalibrating to hold a higher wattage of soul light. Rest, recalibrate, and ground into Gaia’s magnetic field. This is not regression. It is integration.
Shadow Resurgence Before Soul Radiance
Before stepping fully into your light, you may be shown where you’ve hidden it. Old identities, fears of visibility, or ancestral vows of silence may rise. Let them. These are echoes of the past dissolving. Don’t collapse—breathe light into them.
Creative Confusion or Delay
If your vision feels scattered mid-month, it is because you are learning to listen differently—to create not from force, but from resonance. Let the fire slow, purify, and reclarify your inner knowing.
Lion’s Gate Initiation Can Feel Like Pressure
Especially around 8/7–8/10, some may feel like they are “failing” to activate. This is false. You cannot miss what your soul has encoded. Simply be present. Presence is the portal.
Lion’s Gate Activation of the Solar Heart Flame
The higher heart—seat of your sovereign joy—activates through the 8:8 portal. Expect pulses of clarity, truth, soul purpose, and sacred rebellion against anything that dims your fire.
Soul Star Descension into the Body
Your higher self is not hovering above—it’s descending into you. This month bridges the Oversoul with the Inner Child. Together, they awaken the Original Self: radiant, rooted, and real.
Creative Renaissance Begins
After the Lion’s Gate, the New Moon on August 23 offers a powerful window to launch new creations. This moon is an architect’s moon—what you build now has longevity, resonance, and encoded purpose.
Sacred Synchronicities & Soul Reunions
Be open. Many will meet kindred spirits, new allies, or beloveds returning—physically or spiritually. Soul contracts activate with grace when you are in resonance, not in seeking.
"The Stargate of Sovereign Light"
The Lion’s Gate marks the heliacal rising of Sirius, the spiritual Sun behind the Sun, and a harmonic alignment between Earth, Orion’s Belt, and the Great Central Sun. This is the day the Golden Codes of your divine architecture are reawakened.
This year's 8:8 is intensified by a near Full Moon the following day and Uranian harmonics that bring quantum leap potential in your timeline. You are not simply receiving energy—you are remembering your original encoding.
This is a day of conscious co-creation. What you speak, you energize. What you choose, you anchor.
Ritual Ideas:
“The Future Cries Out Through the Heart”
This Aquarius Full Moon arrives like a thunderclap of clarity. It is the soul’s vision looking back at the self and saying: You’re ready now.
Expect activations around collective service, innovation, radical soul truth, and liberation from outdated roles. This moon carries a higher harmonic tone—a calling to step into your field of influence as a frequency, not an identity.
Soul Evolution Focus
Ritual Focus:
"The Soul Makes the Sacred Practical"
Virgo brings order to the cosmic downloads. This New Moon asks: What new structure will support your soul’s flame?
It is the time to rework your daily patterns, create aligned containers, and build systems that nourish your true mission. This is not about perfection—it’s about resonance. You are being called to sacred stewardship—of your energy, your body, your service, and your time.
New Moon Soul Focus
No more performing for approval. You are not a mask—you are a flame.
Pause before each action or choice and ask, “Am I doing this to be seen, or to be true?” Then consciously remove the mask of performance, breathe into your heart, and act from the fire of authenticity rather than the hunger for validation.
No more clinging to the past out of fear. Let it die with dignity.
When old stories or identities arise, bless them with gratitude, then visualize placing them into a sacred fire and whisper, “I honor what was, but I no longer live there,” allowing the ashes to become fertile ground for your soul’s becoming.
No more over-responsibility. Carry only what is yours. Return the rest.
Scan your body and field at day’s end and ask, “What burdens am I holding that are not mine?” Then speak aloud: “I release what is not mine to carry,” and visualize handing it back to Source or returning it to the rightful soul with love and freedom.
No more Avoidance of sacred structure. Your mission needs a vessel.
Instead of resisting routine, choose one meaningful structure each day—be it a journal, altar, or sacred schedule—and declare, “This is the temple where my soul can breathe and create,” allowing form to become the container for your fire to flow through.
Lion’s Breath to release fear and reclaim voice. The Lion’s Breath is a powerful yogic breathing practice that helps release fear, tension, and suppressed emotion by activating the throat chakra and solar plexus. With a fierce exhale through an open mouth and extended tongue, it clears stagnant energy and awakens your authentic voice—restoring courage, presence, and personal power.
Solar Plexus Healing with sapphire flame light, especially during overwhelm. Place your hands over your solar plexus, breathe deeply, and visualize a spiraling sapphire flame entering this center—cooling overwhelm, dissolving fear, and restoring calm, clear power to your core.
Daily Joy Invocation – Each morning, say aloud: “I greet this day as a sovereign being of light. I allow joy to guide me.”
Future Self Counseling – Speak aloud to your Future Self during the Lion’s Gate. Ask, “What timeline do I choose now?”
This is a month to rise, not rush. To burn true, not burn out.
You are the temple and the torch, the initiate and the sovereign. The Lion’s Gate opens not just a door to the cosmos—but a door within. Walk through it. And let your radiance become the path.
With much love and cosmic blessings, Katherine Skaggs

This New Moon in Leo arrives with powerful fire energy, calling us into radical responsibility and the restoration of divine sovereignty in our lives. The mythical goddesses of the Tarot speak through this reading with a clear message: it’s time to burn away what no longer serves, return to our heart’s coherence, and embody the truth of who we are.
The first card, Fire – Self-Destruction, reminds us that fire is both a destroyer and a purifier. This New Moon’s energy shines a cleansing light on all patterns of self-betrayal, those moments when we have gone against ourselves to please others or out of fear. Fire strips away egoic attachments and old wounds, initiating us into a deeper state of authenticity. It’s an invitation to release the narratives that keep us small and to come home to the heart.
The second card continues the theme of fire, urging us toward centering and inner stillness. In a world filled with noise, distractions, and negativity, this is a time to withdraw from external chaos and refocus on the quiet coherence within. The message is clear: do not get pulled into the turbulence of the outer world. Instead, trust your inner light. In silence and self-connection, you realign with your true essence.
The third card—yet another fire card—speaks of integrity. This New Moon holds the potential to either illuminate truth or inflate the ego. The choice is ours. We are asked to practice radical honesty with ourselves, especially regarding the shadows we prefer to avoid. This is not about judgment but about seeing clearly and integrating all parts of who we are. True integrity means coherence between what we feel, what we say, and how we live. This alignment opens the way to soul coherence—a state of harmony between inner and outer worlds.
As for actions during this lunar cycle, the guidance points us toward Aquarian energy, the wisdom of the Higher Mind. Here, we step into the role of the visionary—the wise woman, the eagle who sees from above. The seeds for the future are already in your hands, waiting to be planted. Ask yourself: What does my higher self want me to know right now? What vision am I being called to bring into form? This is a fertile time for creativity, innovation, and long-range dreaming.
Finally, the outcome of this New Moon is embodied in the archetype of Lilith, carrying the fiery independence of Aries. Lilith reminds us of the time when the feminine was first demonized—when sovereignty and equality were stripped away. Her presence now signals restoration: a return to balance between the masculine and feminine, a reclamation of true worthiness and power. As we burn away the ego and live in integrity, we rise into freedom and unity. This is not domination but harmonious strength, a remembering of the sacred within us.
In essence, this Leo New Moon is a cosmic initiation. It burns away the false, clears the path for authenticity, and calls us to create from our higher vision. Through fire, honesty, and inner stillness, we come into sovereignty, coherence, and the radiant expression of our true Self.
This month opens a new harmonic octave in the soul’s journey. After the tumult and intensification of June’s inner clearings and outer destabilizations, July arrives as a recalibration field—an invitation to consciously anchor your reality in a higher harmonic timeline while navigating the residue of density still surfacing in the collective matrix.
The stars, particularly the Pluto–Chiron–Uranus activations, stir deep healing and liberation codes. We are shifting the architecture of identity, piercing veils of illusion around power, purpose, and projection. July is a crucible month—refining soul light through the alchemical fire of truth, grief, love, and liberation.
This Capricorn Full Moon brings a sobering yet empowering clarity. Opposing the Cancer Sun, it asks:
Chiron squares the lunation, pulling ancestral wounding to the surface. It may feel raw. But this is the medicine: to let the inner orphan be seen, held, and finally re-parented by your divine self. This is the perfect opportunity to come home to the love you deserve. It lives within you. Your inner child is ready to come home by acknowledging her/him. Take time to nurture your innocence and purity. This is where your true power lives. Protect this with the love of the fierce and protective Divine Mother, and know you are reconnecting to something vital within your very being.
This New Moon opens a Lion-Heart Gateway. It is the first spark of the Lion’s Gate Portal (8/8), seeding the frequencies you’ll be living by then.
Expect soul downloads, dream visioning, and profound urges to change direction, especially creatively or in relationships. This moon touches the North Node in Aries, activating soul mission and courageous embodiment.
July is supported by Sirian and Lyran star frequencies—they are the architects of higher harmonic systems and guardians of creative sovereignty. They offer assistance in:
The Sirian and Lyran star councils work in harmonic resonance to assist in anchoring New Earth architecture through your own light body. This is a conscious act of remembrance: that you are the temple, the pillar, and the bridge.
Begin by aligning your spine as the central staff of Earth–Sky connectivity, breathing into your root and crown until you feel the vertical axis hum with presence. Then, call upon the Sirian Blue Flame Architects and the Lyran Golden Flame Weavers to gently infuse your field with the codes of crystalline coherence. Visualize a golden-blue lattice forming within and around your body, extending lines of light into Gaia’s crystalline heart and up into the Celestial Lattice of the New Earth template.
Your body becomes a tuning fork—each breath harmonizing planetary and galactic energies. This is not passive. You are the anchor. You are the grid. Daily practice, ceremony, or even walking in nature with intention can help stabilize and extend these structures into the Earth plane.
The Lyran Star Elders hold the original Joy Template—a frequency matrix encoded with divine curiosity, play, and creativity that predates trauma, control, or karma. To recall it is to remember what it is to create from pleasure and innocence, not pressure or wounding.
Begin by placing your hand over your heart and the other on your sacral or solar plexus. Breathe gently and invite your Lyran soul aspects to step forward in golden light. Ask: “Show me the frequency of my original joy.” You may receive a tone, a color, a memory, or a visceral sensation. Anchor this through sound—toning, singing, humming—or through physical play (dance, art, nature connection).
The key is not to seek joy externally, but to recognize that joy is hardwired into your soul light. When you vibrate from this space, you activate timelines of abundance, soul-aligned creation, and higher resonance naturally.
The Sirians, with their mastery of vibrational precision, assist in rewiring trauma distortions in the solar plexus (power center) and heart chakra (divine love center). These two chakras are often entangled in fear-based control programs from both Earth and off-world sources.
To heal, invite the Sirian Sapphire Ray to gently enter your field—cooling the burn of over-control, shame, or survival distortion. Visualize a band of indigo-sapphire light spiraling through the solar plexus and then rising into the heart, dissolving rigid walls, ancestral overlays, and false identities. As the light pulses, allow any grief, anger, or fear to rise—breathe it out. Then call in the White-Gold Flame to reweave the divine design: the solar plexus becomes a seat of sovereign will, the heart a source of radiant, unconditional presence.
You will feel more able to act from truth without force and to love without collapse.
At the heart of distorted control is the forgetting of Divine Will.
Now is the time to reclaim the pure force of Source as loving directive energy aligned with the Whole.
The Lyran Flame teaches that true will is joyful, elegant, creative.
The Sirian Flame teaches that true will is structured, precise, and never in conflict with the soul’s mission.
To reclaim this, sit in silence and call upon both frequencies. Say aloud: “I align with the Divine Will of my Oversoul. May all lesser agendas dissolve.”
Visualize any cords of manipulation, fear-based drive, or external expectations disintegrating. Then, feel the Divine Will rise within your solar plexus and crown simultaneously—an axis of aligned intention. This is a frequency you walk in, not strive toward. It allows you to take bold, clean action free of distortion. It may feel subtle at first, but it is your truest engine of creative manifestation. From here, the need to control vanishes. You become the embodiment of coherent power.
This is a month of soul choice—to collapse into fear… or rise into frequency. You are not being punished by your challenges—you are being summoned by your future self.
As the full moon exposes old stories and the new moon ignites new ones, trust the wisdom of your inner flame. Let what wants to die, die. Let what is being born, be welcomed. You are not behind. You are right on time.
With great love, a transmission from Katherine Skaggs and the Galactic Councils of Light
Visionary Author, Artist, and Weaver of Light
It is our time to remember who we are. I have come to assist you in your remembering. We have a sacred mission together, to be the light we seek, to recall it is within is, and to reclaim it as our sacred right. There is a threshold here that we have been waiting for. It is our time to cross the threshold that we may hold more light and joy within our own beings. Our becoming is the healing we have been awaiting, individually and collectively.
Join Katherine Skaggs for a Summer Solstice Reading - a 5-card spread with the Mythical Goddess Tarot. It is time to step into the light of summer, a threshold through the Summer Solstice, to activate us more greatly into our own light, that we bring light into the density of a world asleep. If you are watching this summer solstice reading, I know you are connecting to a light that is far more great than the shadows. Turn your attention to this light in acknowledgment, in ceremony, ritual, and fire to purify the old fear patterns in yourself and the world around you, that you claim your sovereignty, your freedom, your voice, and your worth, as you are equal no matter how unique you are. Let's take our power back as the fullness of the Summer's light shines upon us.
Enjoy a 5-Card mythical The Mythical Goddess Tarot reading and summer solstice blessing.
It is time to step through the threshold of the Summer Solstice Gateway and to stand in our honesty and power that we are sovereign, equal beings born of the same light, unique and amazing to shine as we are. To overcome fear that controls us, to cut the cords in our physical reality that manipulate us, to take action on earth that reflect our ending of a cycle that we may claim our connectivity and support, and that through this threshold of the Summer Solstice we are the opportunity through these things to return abundance and fruition of our dreams and hard work into this world... that there is enough for everyone, that all get to receive and not just a few. I offer this to your soul and all of your life, that you are being offered great light so you may release density, difficulty, and old patterns born of another day and time.
On this Summer Solstice, as the Sun reaches its peak in the Northern Hemisphere and stands still at the gateway of Light, a great ringing echoes through the corridors of the cosmos, calling all awakened and awakening souls to remember the fire within. This is not only the longest day of the year—it is a pillar of golden codes, a luminous ladder stretching between the Earth and the Heart of the Great Central Sun.
Now is a time to celebrate the fullness of the light, the Solar Summer Solstice. It invites us into ceremony and ritual, spaces to focus on the light and to let go of the darkness, let go of the fear. It reminds us we are born of light and fire, encoded with beauty and luminosity, sculpted by eternity.
Each soul is being asked to choose—not from fear, but from knowing. You are being summoned to embody your Living Codex of Light—the gifts you brought here encoded in your breath, your hands, your voice, your vision. Let the grief of the old be fuel. Let the longing in your heart be proof of what is already on its way. You are not behind. You are right on time.
At the moment the Sun enters Cancer, it crosses the threshold from the airy realm of thought (Gemini) into the sacred womb of water, the Great Mother’s chalice.
This Solstice is a sacred hinge—a gateway of global recalibration, where light reveals what must dissolve and what must rise.

May this bless you and assist you in reflecting from a higher perspective what is taking place in your life as well as the world around you.
Much love and blessings,
The Full Moons represent the end of a lunar cycle. As they rise, they bring to the surface emotions, challenges, menses, intestinal parasites, and other once hidden situations that must be dealt with. Endings arise, clearing that which no longer is in your best good is possible, and letting go is often at hand.
The full moon in Leo brings in the energy of the lion in all its beauty and all its challenges.
At its highest vibration, Leo is the vital pulse and expansive joy of creativity, the child-cub that loves to walk in the sunshine, roll around with its cub mates in play, and ultimately express themselves without the need for praise or fear of judgment. This moon energy is opposite the solar sun energy of the genius, progressive sign of Aquarius.
Now is a time to bring in the heart warming energies of Leo with the higher mind of Aquarius through creative expression, courage, and inventiveness. Leo rules the heart. With this full moon in Leo we are guided to get quiet, listening within to the heart's true desires and wisdom. Then, to be brave enough to believe that love is a self-renewing life force to guide us into true authenticity and expression.
Uranus, the planet of sudden change, chaos, and radical independence, is square both the full moon in Leo and the sun in Aquarius. This great awakener of Uranus will most likely bring a great deal of chaos into our need for change. With the mix of these energies know that unexpected solutions will be born out of the crazy releases and change of scenery being called for in our advancement as souls in human experience.
No matter the astrological influences, you will find it important to do your best to let go of what is no longer serving you as you open to great change that brings you into greater alignment with your soul's blueprint and purpose.
Take some time for ritual, a releasing ceremony, a time to go within, a sea salt bath, and a focal point on bringing in more awareness to your life focus. Focus on letting go of dense energies (fear, worry, trauma) as you bring in more light, more joy, more authenticity and courage to be your true self. Be yourself and get out of the box of what others think of you or what you feel you are supposed to be or do.
The universe is saying, BE YOU and let the rest settle out that does not serve your joy.
Pluto into Aquarius November 19th, 2024 brings great change. It moves out of Capricorn, the symbol for the patriarchy, the government, the banking systems and all the old ways that are worn out, moving into Aquarius, the new way of being that support WE the People.

Spring Equinox Tarot Reading
Join me, Katherine Skaggs to welcome the Spring Equinox (in Northern hemisphere Tuesday, March 19 at 9:06pm MDT) energies of rebirth and reset. The equinox marks the astrological new year, the East in the medicine wheel, and the place of new beginnings. It is the perfect time to plant seeds of your intentions into the great cosmic void of possibility, as well as physically for all you desire at this time.
This Spring Equinox Mythical Goddess Tarot reading reveals more about the energy of the Spring cycle and what we need to know to proceed in greater harmony and well-being in our lives. This esoteric tarot reading also offers practical guidance and advice for clearing old, limiting patterns, as well as birthing new ways of being. Katherine will address Who We Are as we enter this Spring cycle, What is the Big Picture of this time, What are our Lessons and Opportunities, What Action to Take, and Outcomes we can expect as we follow our highest pathways. Enjoy! Much love, Katherine Skaggs
This is a reflection of who WE are — you, me, and humanity, and what we are working through as we enter this new cycle:
Crone of Seas - Resurrection - This is a card of wisdom and endings of cycles, signally a massive emotional rebirth from the Dark Night of the Soul. She signals both heart and soul transformation and resurrection from death into new form. This Crone Mama is the pure feminine expression of rebirth from the underworld. Know that no matter who beat up you may feel from your journey that you are here, transformed and wiser. Know that you have all it takes to move into Spring with emotional healing and capacity to love more deeply.
7 of Wind - Pessimism - And though we have come through it all with deep emotional challenges and healing, we still have some lack of clarity mentally in how to move forward in a positive way mentally. Old patterns of limitation are up for us to heal as we enter Spring. It is good to expose them now so we can do our work to let go of any boxes we have put ourselves into, or that others have put us into. Time to break out into new ways of being! Get honest and you can move forward.
The Sun - Amaterasu - The Shinto Sun Goddess - Though our mind may want to hold us back, our soul says WE ARE THE LIGHT! YOU ARE THE LIGHT. On a deep level we are emerging with greater light no matter what our lower ego false personality wants to say. With the return of the light on Earth, there is also a deeper emergence of the light within.
3 of Wind - Isolation - This card is about balance and perception of the mind. Don't let your mind skew your perception as you watch others off playing in a world without you. Now is the time to go within, to be with yourself in deep spaces. You are loved and you belong. Take your space to be with your own processes, your time to practice your skills, and to enjoy yourself in your world. You are the love you seek in your life, and you are the source of all happiness. There is a time to be with community and you will know when that is. Don't let your mind make you envious or feeling alone. Reconnect at the deepest levels with your Self and you will be in flow with your tribe.
5 of Wind - Fear - In the Big Picture our Spring Cycle is exposing the fear we have mentally so we can overcome it. It is time to move to the heart and soul of life and what we truly desire. If you have fear arising still your mind and sit in your heart. Watch your thoughts. Feel them in your body. Then cast them out with your intentions and healing practices. Take them to the fire and ceremonially release them so they no longer have control over your future. Work with the medicine of going within with the 3 of Wind. Be honest about what you are afraid of so you can refocus through love as best as possible. Ask what it may be like to choose based on love and joy rather than fear.
Child of Fire - Creative Spark - This card is the energy we need to engage within our very beings to overcome the lower mental energies of fear and isolation. What might it be like to be focused on creating what you love? Your creativity is your super power when focused on a new way of being, a future of possibility, and a life lived in joy and love.
The High Priestess - Egyptian Goddess Isis - You are the High Priestess of your own life. You are the one to give birth to your new life through intuitive knowing, inner reflective spaces, ceremony, ritual, magic, and intention. Pay attention to your inner knowing, your inner voice. It is time to receive nourishment from the Divine. It is also important to know your rebirth is supported by this Divine Mother energy.

Join Katherine Skaggs, artist and original publisher of the Mythical Goddess Tarot, for a Mythical Goddess Full Moon Tarot reading for the February Full Moon in Virgo.
Join Katherine Skaggs and the Mythical Goddess Tarot to look at these energies and how to work with them for the best experiences for the next 28 day cycle.
In astrology, new moons bring beginnings and change. They’re a time to lay the groundwork for the goals you wish to accomplish in the next several weeks. February’s new moon rises in innovative Aquarius, urging you to question your values and how you fit in the world. This zodiac sign is ruled by Uranus, the planet associated with rebellion and progressive change, which can translate into abrupt endings and plot twists that shake you to your core.
There is a great Humanitarian vibe that comes with Aquarius, so grab this energy and know your changes are part of the leveling up process we are in on a global level. “It has the potential to liberate you in ways that are hard to even imagine right now. A new pathway is unfolding before you, which can come with a healthy dose of uncertainty about where it leads or if you’ll be capable of handling it,” he says. With the support of Aquarius by your side, those who luck out during this new moon will be empowered by the fixed sign’s unwavering ethic." says astrologer Ryan Marquardt. “

3 of Seas - Compassion - Look for the pearls within the challenges. With the healing it is important to look for the gold, the alchemy, and the gifts that come from the hard stuff. This returns us to compassion for ourselves and for those around us, and the world at large.
2 of Seas - Love - Our lesson is to move into the playfulness of loving ourselves, and others. This is not necessarily about a personal relationship with another person, but can be. Learn to flow emotionally and with enjoyment of an open heart.

Uzume brought the Sun Goddess Amaterasu out the cave and brought the light back. She did so through her irreverence and with play. Find that for yourself as you move out of the dark spaces in your life, and in the life of humanity's fears and you will know all is well, in spite of the appearances of things. Be the light!
5 of Fire - De-Light - We are moving to a place of passion, light, and fire within ourselves as we heal.
Crone of Seas - Resurrection - The Crone of Seas has been through the gambit of the most difficult emotional depths. This card indicates great emotional healing and wisdom because you committed to that healing.
9 of Wind - Criticism - This is a negative mental suit card... but does not mean that in our healing we will become more critical. It is an indication that as we heal our heart spaces the mental critical thought forms will have to arise to heal too. There is an opportunity in our journey to heal all the hard edges within and around us. To let go of the harsh crictical thoughts.
Who's Helping us Who are we section - Archangel Michael - Protection -We are protected!! Stay the path of the heart.

Enjoy a Mythical Goddess Solstice Tarot Reading with Katherine Skaggs for Solstice Thursday, Dec. 21st at 8:27pm MST.
This is a 15-Card spread with the Mythical Goddess Tarot and an esoteric look at the Solstice Cycle. It is practical too as to what is important as we end one cycle and begin a new one, both from a spiritual perspective, and what serves us as souls on Earth. Katherine will help you look at Who are We as we enter into this changing cycle, What is the Big Picture, What Lessons and Opportunities are at this time, What Action to Take, and What Outcome will follow as we act on what is best for us. In the Northern Hemisphere we celebrate Winter Solstice, the darkest day of the year before the return of the light.
In the Southern Hemisphere it is Summer Solstice, being the brightest day of the year. Solstice is the still place of pause, where the Sun's daily path as seen from Earth reverses direction seasonally. Spiritually and symbolically, this is a time of ‘pause.' It is a good time to access the Void, and the place of possibility and potentiation. The void is the place between past and future, the place of all possible futures.
REFLECT AND LET GO
Now is a time to reflect upon what you truly desire to create and to experience as you let go of what has been. It is a great time to write down what you are letting go of onto a sheet of paper, with all the ferve and emotion you can draw forth as you place words and energy onto paper. In reflection what wisdom and gratitude can you draw forth from your journey in life? Even in the hardest of times there are lessons and teachings that offer wisdom from your experiences.
REFLECT AND BE GRATEFUL
On another sheet of paper admit your blessings that have come across the last 6 months to year or more. What wisdom has come? What are you grateful for in the journey? What healing and awareness have you received along the way?
REFLECT AND DREAM ANEW
On a third sheet of paper take time to dream anew. What hopes, dreams, and desires do you wish to put your attention on now? What new seeds of life do you wish to plant and fertilize with your attention at this potent time? Pour forth your desires to create and to receive.
ALCHEMIZE WITH FIRE CEREMONY
To alchemize your words and your experiences, take your writings to the fire and ceremonially release them. The fire is the symbol of the Sun on Earth, tangible, bright, and alchemical. Move close to the fire and release these papers, and any other offerings you would like, such as seeds for new beginnings, leaves of what has been shed, holly, twigs, etc. Place organic items into the fire to let go and to call forth anew. Then stand close enough to the fire for its energy to purify your field with its warmth and life force. With everything you release into the fire you will receive an expansion of chi, prana, and life force to revitalize your energy and all of your life.
May this Solstice bring you many blessings! May the Holidays bring great joy, and the New Year be fertile with great love, abundance, adventures, and heart. Love, Katherine
