Thursday brings us the powerful Full Flower Moon in Scorpio and then we move into celebrating our first Covid Mother’s Day. We are in the energy of the Divine Feminine in her “fem-type” as Mother (if you want to learn more about “fem-types" Deborah Roth and I will be leading a 6-week series: Ignite Your Goddess Wisdom).
Scorpio is always about major transformation and we have an opportunity to transform and heal many issues. We can shine our light on any place we are holding fear, anxiety, feelings of unworthiness, confusion, guilt, shame or blame.
Since our “Mother” energy of empathy, fertility, caring and creativity are enhanced at this time, looking at how you relate to yourself, others and community is a big theme this week.
As Matt Kahn beautifully said in a video I watched recently, the main attribute of The Light is to add value to anything around it.
So, my question to you is, “ How can we build relationships that improve our lives and the lives of others?"
None of us know how much time we have here, but all of us can appreciate the people and experiences we do have. This is the gift that God/Goddess has given us this Mother’s Day. Be the Light you want for the world.
As a sidebar: For those wanting to conceive it is said that this Full Moon has magical attributes that are advantageous for conception. I have facilitated many successful fertility ceremonies so feel free to reach out for more information.
Mother’s Day Ritual
The idea of making an Appreciation Box which I wrote about in The Joy of Ritual seems even more called for this year. This can be done for anyone who is a “mother figure” in your life.
To Make an Appreciation Box: You can use a shoebox, hatbox, cigar box, or any kind of container that appeals to you. Decorate it with markers, ribbons, flowers, photographs, beads, feathers, or jewels. Use your imagination. This is great to do as a family project and can include small children as well as adults.
Place drawings, home baked cookies, Mom’s favorite bath oil, a poem or any other objects and symbols that show love and appreciation for your mother. Write down things that you love about her: “I love the way you bake me banana bread on my birthday” or “I love the way you always see the bright side of life”. Also, include written promises to do something special for Mom.
By taking the time to really appreciate your mother you will be giving her the best gift possible. And let us not forget Mother Earth, who is responsible for the bounty of all of life.

As we are slowly shifting away from self-quarantine, this is the perfect time for an intuitive tarot card reading to get overview on where you are right now and clarity on the practical steps you need to take to bring you healing, success and love.
For those of you graduating, celebrating a birthday or anniversary, it may be the perfect time for a celebration ritual.
