July Full Moon Circle & Light Body Activation

Full Moon - The Soul's Reckoning with Reality
A Time to Release What No Longer Serves You

And how do you like this title? The soul's reckoning with reality. Sounds like an important time to clean out that which cannot move into our futures and to vision a new future that serves our souls.

This full moon in Capricorn is asking some very important questions that will assist us in aligning to our soul path, rather than the path of suffering. We will take advantage of these energies to clear what no longer serves us, and to align with heart, soul, love, and truth.

  • What responsibilities are we no longer needing to carry? Meaning, put down what is not yours.
  • Where has life (work, relationships, health) become a shell instead of your soul vessel?  But pay attention to where you inauthentic and out of alignment.
  • Are you building your life in truth and love or are you falling into fear patterns to make your choices?
  • Ancestral wounding is also coming to the surface so we can heal it. 

The Agenda in Your Sacred Circle of Alchemy and Return to Soul Self:

  • Gather in sacred ceremonial circle.
  • Clean and clear with smoke (palo santo and sage).
  • Open a medicine wheel and call our allies.
  • Vibe up and Blessing with flower water.
  • Work with a fire ceremony if weather permits to alchemize the old
  • Cleansing and Healing Ceremony with Selenite Swords of Light to clear old patterns
  • Light Body Activation with Goddess Sekhmet and other Solar light codes with Selenite Swords of Light
  • Return to Joy as our true nature
  • Shamanic Drum Journey with Sekhmet to the Golden Harmonic Realms of Restoration
  • Closing of the medicine wheel

What to bring for the evening:

  • Offerings of love for the altar - flowers, candle, sacred items to be blessed
  • Your prayers, an open heart, and anything you wish to release or bless to the fire
    • Written stories you desire to let go of
    • Old photos (on non-toxic burnable paper)
    • Organic items that symbolize release and reset
    • Sage, palo santo, sacred tobacco or other herbs that purify
    • Seeds that symbolize new life as you let go of the old
    • Cotton rope or twine that is knotted (symbolizing the stuck energies you are sacrificing to the fire)
    • Old journal pages
    • Anything organic that must be let go via fire for purification and illuminatio

Let us sit in circle, as wise ones have for eons, and call forth the light that guides us home.

With love and moonlit blessings, Katherine

Full Moon in Scorpio Sun in TaurusWesak Fire Ceremony
A Night of Illumination, Healing & Renewal

You are warmly invited to gather in sacred community for a May Full Moon Circle and Wesak Celebration, honoring the powerful convergence of lunar illumination, spiritual blessing, and inner awakening. This sacred evening will honor the Wesak Festival, the time each year when the Buddha is said to return in spirit to bless the Earth with profound spiritual energies. It is a portal of enlightenment, compassion, and divine alignment—a moment to receive and radiate higher frequencies of love and service.

What is Wesak?

Wesak is celebrated at the Full Moon in Scorpio and marks the spiritual festival of the Buddha, commemorating his birth, enlightenment, and passing. It is said that during this time, great spiritual Masters and Light Beings gather in the higher realms, and a cosmic blessing is poured onto the Earth to uplift all beings.

This is not a celebration tied to any one religion—it is a universal event of spiritual awakening, a time when the veil is thin, and we may more easily receive light, insight, and healing from Source.

Wesak and the Full Moon in Scorpio is also a profound moment to:

  • Anchor higher light into the Earth
  • Awaken to our true purpose and soul path
  • Release karmic burdens and emotional heaviness
  • Offer blessings to humanity and the planet

What to expect for your evening:

  • Gather in sacred ceremonial circle.
  • Clean and clear with smoke (palo santo and sage).
  • Open a medicine wheel and call our allies.
  • Vibe up and Blessing with flower water.
  • Gather under the Light of Grandmother Moon
  • Offer our prayers and intentions into a Sacred Fire Ceremony
  • Cleans and release old stories into the fire for transformation and healing
  • Receive blessings and transmissions from the Wesak energies
  • Open our hearts to joy, soul clarity, and luminous embodiment
  • Shamanic Drum Journey to Shamabala and the Wesak Celebration
  • Closing of the medicine wheel

What to bring for the evening:

  • Offerings of love for the altar - flowers, candle, sacred items to be blessed
  • Your prayers, an open heart, and anything you wish to release or bless in the fire.
  • Offerings for the fire:
    • Written stories you desire to let go of
    • Old photos (on non-toxic burnable paper)
    • Organic items that symbolize release and reset
    • Sage, palo santo, sacred tobacco or other herbs that purify
    • Seeds that symbolize new life as you let go of the old
    • Cotton rope or twine that is knotted (symbolizing the stuck energies you are sacrificing to the fire)
    • Old journal pages
    • Anything organic that must be let go via fire for purification and illuminatio

Let us sit in circle, as wise ones have for eons, and call forth the light that guides us home.

Healing Ceremony with Full Moon and Lunar Eclipse in Virgo

This will be an evening of ceremony, clearing, reset, reflection, visioning, and illumination.

A full moon in Virgo is the perfect time to focus on organization, health, and details that need to be attended to. This full moon can be a time to clear out clutter and make room for new things.  This full moon can be a time to release things that no longer serve you, whether that's physically or emotionally. It is a time to realign with your true desires and to breakthrough into new ways of being. Expect a time of growth as winter fades and spring approaches.

Egyptian Goddesses Isis, Sekhmet, Hathor, and Ma'at will assist us

I will have just returned from a major spiritual trip to Egypt, bringing home the energy and blessings of the Great Goddesses and ancient medicines from these timeless places. We will be working with consciousness activations in the temples upon this trip, helping to bring peace and healing for all in our time in the great pyramids and sacred sites.

  • Gather in sacred ceremonial circle.
  • Clean and clear with smoke (palo santo and sage).
  • Open a medicine wheel and call our allies.

Summer Solstice

Welcoming the Sun, Awakening the Light in Our Hearts and All Our World with Summer Solstice

The Summer Solstice represents the next step of this divine rhythm. Always occurring at the start of the Cancer Sun Season, the Summer Solstice reminds us to turn inward and find the nourishment needed to grow and evolve. We will gather around the night fire to connect to the solar light represented as the fire, to expand the light within us, and to release any shadows that cannot go on the journey.

Fire Ceremony to Bring in the Light and Let Go of the Past Cycles

Come prepared to let go of what no longer serves you. Bring written old stories, old photos, and organic items that represent what you can no longer take on your journey. Can you imagine your future self free of all burdens and old  stories that keep you in suffering? What doe she/he want you to release now? What is your willingness for change? Take action and come to the fire of your heart and soul, as well as the hearth of my backyard fire pit to ceremonially release the old and to bring in the light of the new season and cycles. (If the weather is windy or non-conducive to fire we'll resort to other means to release.)

Bring any of the following to release:

  • Written stories you desire to let go of
  • Old photos (on non-toxic burnable paper)
  • Organic items that symbolize release and reset
    • Sage, palo santo, sacred tobacco or other herbs that purify

Bring Items for the Altar to Be Blessed

Activation with Selenite Swordmaker Tom Ledder

On this special Summer Solstice Full Moon Celebration, expect to top off a wonderful evening with fire ceremony with an extraordinary spiritual activation by Tom Ledder, a master spiritual tech selenite Swordmaker. The evening will not disappoint. I have had one of his blessings and activations and they are extraordinary.

Capricorn Full Moon Energies

The balance between hard and soft comes into view under the Capricorn full moon on June 21, asking us to be honest about our personal boundaries and how they help or hinder certain situations or relationships. Now is the time to get serious about your life, taking into consideration where you need more freedom, structure, or control. Lean into your sense of personal authority, taking a stand against that which is not working for you. Just be mindful that the duality between our sun and moon will strain emotions, and you may need to guard against the feelings of others in order to stay true to your own.

You’ll become more aware of the passage of time under Luna’s glow, especially if you’re not exactly where you thought you’d be by now. Rather than allowing yourself to feel pressured or downtrodden over milestones yet to be hit, use this energy to appreciate the resilience and maturity you’ve gained throughout the years. Instead of viewing your timeline as slow moving, take into consideration how excitement and optimism may have clouded your sense of pace, causing you to set unrealistic goals. It can also be helpful to acknowledge plot twists or roadblocks that were out of your control, temporarily leading you off the path you’d initially set forth on.

Professional goals will become increasingly meaningful during this time, and you may notice temperamental or competitive behaviors amongst colleagues. This energy could also bleed into your home life, making it important that you and your closest companions focus on ways to support and lift one another up, even if frustrations around money come into play. In a culture that obsesses over occupation and materialism, dare to place value on human worth first. With that being said, now is the ideal time to think about where you’re heading.

With Saturn as the ruling planet of this lunation, responsible action and pragmatic thinking will be the key to making the most of these vibes. However, that doesn’t mean you need to brush the dreamer within you aside. Instead, lean into the visions you’ve held for yourself throughout the years, taking a more serious look at how you might manifest these dreams. The universe will enthusiastically bless dedication to one’s agenda, though these breakthroughs in fortune might not be instant. Capricorn energy can move slowly, understanding how much value there is in appreciating one’s journey. The more present you are in the moment and moving forward, the more you will gain along the way.

As we settle into Cancer season, this full moon also offers a chance to release baggage or grief and reclaim composure. As a collective, we’ll ride many emotional waves under the sign of the crab, which is why finding your center now is particularly important. Adopt coping mechanisms that will allow you to keep a level head and heart as we continue through this astrological era. It’ll also be important to spend more time at home, so be sure to examine your schedule closely to ensure you’ll have plenty of time to recharge moving forward.

Sagittarius Full Moon: A Time for Transformation

Unveiling New Paths

As we wake up on the morning of May 23, at precisely 7:53 AM MDT, we’ll be greeted by the full moon in the expansive sign of Sagittarius, making a harmonious sextile with Pluto in forward-thinking Aquarius. It’s a moment that blends optimism with depth, encouraging us to look beyond the horizon.

Under this Sagittarius full moon, expect a dash of revelation and personal transformation. Full moons are like cosmic spotlights, revealing what usually lurks in the shadows, and nudging us to acknowledge and release it. With the added influence of Pluto, known for its transformative power, we’re invited to shed old skins and step into new versions of ourselves.

This isn’t just about small adjustments, but about embracing the bigger shifts that can reroute our life’s journey. Think of it as a celestial push towards evolution, prompting us to expand our understanding and embrace change. Whether it’s in our thoughts, habits, or relationships, this full moon is about finding freedom in endings and excitement in the fresh starts that follow.

The trine of Pluto with Aquarius on May 22nd prepares us for a deep conversation with what we truly desire, preparing us for personal and collective breakthrough. Be prepared for moving out of the status quo as we change at deep levels in what truly matters. Share ideas that inspired and open your mind for big potentiation of our collective future.

Heart, Romance, Divine Justice, Balance, Equanimity, and Diplomacy

We will work with the energies of the Full Moon in Libra in ceremony and ritual to awaken and heal the heart. The full moon in Libra with a lunar eclipse excites the heart with its romantically charged energy. Libra is the sign that governs the heart spaces. We'll use this time to reflect upon our closest relationships of the heart. We'll practice finding gratitude for those that ground, encourage, and inspire you to be the best you possibly. And also time to let go of the energies that keep us from the heart of what matters. It is time to find balance in how you relate and connect.

Detox and Heal Subconscious Destructive Patterns & Shadows

Full moons are a great time to release the old and to manifest the seeds of what we planted on the New Moon. This full Libra moon brings the energy needed to clear up the old and come into greater balance. The period of influence of this Full Moon is 6 months from the day of the lunation. It is time to reset out of the old ways so new life can be manifest.

Crow Woman is the Divine Justice Card in the Mythical Goddess Tarot, and the Goddess we need to help us release the energies that keep us in our linear reality and out of balance. She is here to teach us about Divine Justice, aka Divine Law.

We will invoke Crow Woman into our ceremony, and bring her as our focus for Shamanic Journey to help us cleanse the patterns of injustice, imbalance, lack of equality, and issues of the heart. We'll ask her to help us accept our shadows so we can heal the wounds that caused them.

Snow Full Moon in Virgo Full Moon Healing Circle
Hard Work, Manifestation, Healing the Shadows, Order

The Full Moon in Virgo brings the hardworking energy of Virgo into all we are creating in our lives. Now is a great time to work hard and manifest what you truly desire. You may find yourself organizing and putting your life in order in ways you haven't been able to do for a while. The Full Moon in Virgo can help you tie up loose ends and complete cycles and tasks you haven't been able to get done. A great time to finish your taxes!

Detox and Heal Subconscious Destructive Patterns & Shadows

This moon energy is also a time to detoxify from old thoughts and beliefs that limit you, or make you feel not good enough. The Virgo Full Moon can also bring subconscious fears and doubts to the surface so you can heal the shadows that lurk below the surface. Once you clean out the subconscious you can lean into your dreams and know that YOU ARE good enough to have what you truly want. It is a great time to share your talent and stand in your brilliant light.

Full moons are a great time to release the old and to manifest the seeds of what we planted on the New Moon. This full moon brings the energy needed to clear up the old and come into greater balance.

Mother Goddess Kali

Heal the Shadows with Kali Journey on the Virgo Full Moon

For years I have been working with Great Mother Kali, the revered Hindu Mother Goddess of Creation and Death, and the death card in the Mythical Goddess Tarot. She asks to join us on the Full Moon in Virgo to help us face our shadows and release the fears that stop us from living the life we want.  She is the perfect Mother Goddess to assist us in shifting our inner blocks, uncovering unconscious patterns and emotional that prevent us from realizing our dreams.

We will invoke Kali into our ceremony, and bring her as our focus for Shamanic Journey to help us cleanse and let die the patterns of pain and unworthiness. We'll ask her to help us accept our shadows so we can heal the wounds that caused them.
