Change, Journal and the Hunter Moon
Autumn always reminds me of the cycles of life. The cold air setting in makes my morning walks brisk. Autumn is also that last blaze of glory before winter calls us inward. Days are shorter and the squirrels are gathering pine cones and acorns, we have a regular, daily visitor to our garden and bird swing collecting and gathering for his/her storage.
Nature knows how to take care of itself, how to provide, how to shelter, how to grow, how to adapt, how to die and be reborn. Everything is connected. Everything ebbs and flows, and change is the only constant. Spend enough time in Nature and you notice how alive even a blade of grass is.
Last night was the stunning Hunters Moon which was especially big and bright. It was lovely to gaze at it last night and I woke early with it this morning. The forecast was good for the weather so I grabbed the opportunity to get outside down to the beach with my flask, journal and oracle cards. This was 6.30 this morning and I got to the beach for 7am. It was weird to walk with the moon and dark on my right side and the daylight coming up on my left. It was lovely to watch the sunrise and was surprisingly warm.
For an hour I sat there and journaled, drank my coffee and watched the sun come up. I certainly went through some emotional and monumental thoughts with the energy of the moon and sun.
Moon Focus:
Injecting new life into projects
Taking bold steps forward
Pouring love into the things that make you happy.
This has certainly come up for me over the last 24 hours and one word that has kept popping up for me ‘BEGIN’ This word means a lot to me and will be my word for 2025. We have some goals coming together next year and it is all about crone years, next chapter, beginning of a new way of life, a new way of working, adventures and so much more.
This morning just makes me realise how lucky and blessed I am to where I live and my life. I do miss the mountains and rugged coastline but to be sat on the beach next to a flat coastline is just as special.
I watched the sun come up onto a very clear blue sky day and thanked the Universe for giving me the opportunity to experience this morning.
