Style is Eternal
"The image of the spiral and sense of an unfolding process occurring
deep within the heart, circling the material of our lives in all its varied layers
is such a rich imaginative lens through which to navigate the unique journey we are on.
At times, it can be incredibly frustrating and repetitive
as we spin around the same themes, without seeming like there is much movement.
At other times, we encounter some crack where the light breaks in;
what seemed at first glance to be a mere repetition is somehow different,
revealing a piece of the mystery that we couldn't quite see at an earlier time.
The alchemists called this spiral the circulatio or rotatio which was
envisioned as a sacred process,
a touching and re-touching of the heart, of the material of our lives,
where we circle or rotate around the essential themes that are unique for us,
that form the prima materia of our own personal opus.
From an alchemical perspective,
while it may appear that we are no making any progress and stuck,
things are not always what they appear.
Even if we no longer grieve the sense of a personal loss,
we may be asked by forces larger than ourselves to grieve for the ancestors,
the ones yet to come, and the earth and her fertility.
At some point, perhaps we can no longer discern between our own grief
and that of a galaxy being born and dying.
Grieving is not only personal but cultural, historical, and archetypal.
As it humbles and purifies, it opens a portal into the mystery.
The invitation into that place will be unique for each of us and
regardless of how it appears—sweet, fierce, peaceful, or wrathful—
it the activity of love, of the beloved one
as it appears here,
spinning and twirling out of the stars and
dancing the worlds of time and space into being."

Super Blood Moon Eclipse in Leo:
Facing the Shadow
On January 21st, 2019 we have a Super Blood Moon Full Lunar in Eclipse in Leo!
This is INTENSE energy, as we only have supermoons once or twice a year
but to have it also fall on a Full Lunar Eclipse creates a powerful portal of energy.
When a Full Lunar Eclipse occurs, it is completely eclipsed by the Sun,
appearing red like blood.
These are also very prophetic and tend to bring in fated events
that change our destiny.
