The Moon
The moon shining it's subtle light into the dark night can be beautiful, mystical, and awe-inspiring. However, it can also create anxiety and fear. Think about it. When you were little, how much more afraid did it make you of the dark places you couldn't see? Where it's light had yet to pierce through for you?
Right now the moon may be illuminating an issue, one deep within your subconscious, that is leaving you feeling just as anxious and just as scared. Our ego and mind likes to play tricks on us, causing us to fear and think irrationally about things. Remember it's okay to be scared. Be gentle with yourself and try to find a different perspective to the issue at hand. This is the time of year when Shadow work is done so this may be a shadow you have long since hidden from the world, only pushing it further and further into the darkest recesses of your mind. Why are you afraid? What is the true issue at hand? The moon can also represent deception and illusion, so is your fear actually what it appears? Journal. Meditate. This issue is being brought to the forefront now because it is time to release it. To heal.
Maybe the issue was brought up in a dream. Maybe something will trigger it today. Hell, maybe it will even just come from nowhere! Regardless of how, now is the time for healing and the most important reminder I hope you'll hear today is YOU AREN'T ALONE. You don't have to deal with this issue alone. You have a whole spiritual team ready to help...you need only ask. Gods, Goddesses, Angels, Spirit Guides, Ancestors...They are there but can't help unless asked.
Brightest of Blessings,
