The 9/9 Portal

Hello Beloveds,

We have a powerful few weeks ahead of us as we continue to move towards the Autumn Equinox. Today is the 9th day of the 9th month. It’s the 9/9 portal today and it’s bringing with it some amazing energies. This portal will stay open for the next 9 days. We can expect some massive shifts today, as this portal has opened. We are talking about a literal Stargate into different dimensions. These Divine cosmic energies can really help bring us into better alignment. These waves of energy are full of light codes that are triggering your DNA to activate to your highest purpose. Today is a massive day for activating the magic in which you already carry, spend sometime unplugged in the sun today.

These ascension energies and the inner work that we are doing will allow us to further activate higher vibrations and frequencies. 9 also is the numerology of the completion of a cycle. This really is a new beginning and it’s time to release what no longer serves, and a burning release ritual in tomorrow’s Pisces full moon is ideal. We are shedding our past stories, baggage, and cutting the cords for that which is not free.

We also have Mercury entering retrograde tonight. Since this Mercury retrograde begins in Libra, don’t be surprised if your closest bonds — including romantic relationships, business partnerships, and even your existing contracts — go through shifts over the next few weeks. Exes may come out of the woodwork (this is a common occurrence during every Mercury retrograde, but still). Resist the temptation to respond. Expect to spend the end of the month focusing on rebuilding whatever has been challenged during this retrograde cycle once Mercury shifts into Virgo on September 23.

There are a lot of timelines colliding right now. If past situations or people are coming up it’s to bring you some further healing or need a new perspective. Remember you have come too far to be looking back or give up now. In many ways this combination of energy has been completely dismantling the old. We have an abundance of changes occurring within the grids of the Earth. The old is continuing to shift into the new. These planetary alignments have had a huge influence on the collective. The energies are continuing to rise as we approach the Autumn Equinox.

We have three months left of 2022 and we can expect a massive amount of energy to come with it. The Equinox will help us all come back into balance. It’s very important that you are staying grounded in the midst all of this energy. Really listen to your body during this time, movement of any type–especially dance and yoga are ideal to keep your energetic current flowing. Dive deep or begin a self-care practice; including skincare. Meditate, give yourself extra time, spend time outside off devices, eat well and drink extra water. Be gentle more than anything. Treat yourself like someone you love. Don’t give into overthinking as we are about half way done with Virgo Season. Trust the Universe, and remember you a Divine being. We are now manifesting the rest of the year. Choose wisely and move with intention.

Expansion

What a beautifully strange and wonderful week.

It came through to me this morning that expansion doesn’t always mean more, more, more. Expansion is also allowing the depth of your soul to open up so you can become deeply rooted in your own purpose. That type of expansion is grounding, that type of expansion feels different. I don’t full understand it, but I recognize the shift in my own consciousness, and feel the change in energy from welcoming it in.

I’ve had such blissful week of planning and connection. An overwhelming sense of peace has come over me and I can feel it in my root. I’m grateful and completely here for it.

I’m going to sit with everything and unplug a bit this weekend. Dance in the sunshine, and plant my feet upon the Earth. For so long, I kept trying to make it to where I am now…I’m going to stop and savor it for a bit.

Wishing you rest and reflection.

New Moon in Leo

I’m feeling clear and balanced as I head into the New Moon in Leo tomorrow.

I started my own moon today so I’ve had lots of rest and relaxation in the sun.

Tonight is an excellent night to release everything before tomorrow’s new moon. I also do a few extra things to call in the New Moon.

First off, I do not personally do any manifestation work until the moon has moved into phase and is technically waxing again. (10:55am PST Thursday). I always rest and reflect on the days leading up the the New Moon. I take things slow and easy. They are my declutter and release days. The 14th night when the sky is the darkest is today. I’ll sit with Shiva energy tonight and will both chant and sleep to OM NAMAH SHIVAYA tonight (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ixJiedOVwfo).

Tomorrow, I’ll wake up before sunrise, dry brush my body and have a long cool bath. My New Moon essential oils of choice are Vetiver, Lavender, Lemon and Sandalwood. I’ll also add salt to the water and I’ll wet but not wash my hair so I can immerse my crown chakra. I also use the same essential oils mixed in with grapeseed oil and nourish my skin with an oil treatment that I allow time to fully soak in.

On the New Moon, I fast from Sunrise that morning to Sunrise of the next day. I find this gives me added clarity to focus for the new month. I only do water or water with a bit of lemon. I’ve gotten used to it now but when I first started I would have a small bit of rice in the evening.

Shortly after the moon goes into phase, I write down everything that I desire for the new month in a special journal; I literally only use it for manifestation. I also go through entries of the last month and note everything that was answered or if I decided to release a desire for that “ask” from the previous month. I also use the words DESIRE or MANIFEST instead of want. Want traditionally denoted lack, it is defined as “To be short of or lack,” and I do not honor that energy– I have all but wiped it from my vocabulary. DESIRE and MANIFEST feel much more powerful to my own soul. I write my desires down with green, red or gold ink. I write slowly and intentionally.

On New Moon night, I sit in meditation specifically to Kali. I listen to her Mantra ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kUEIdRUGjrM ) and offer prayers of devotion to her and offer fresh fruit and red flowers and hibiscus tea. This is my own Kali Puja I have created to honor her.

Before bed, I’ll do a hot oil treatment on my hair and let it sit overnight. I go to bed early and rest a little extra since I am on my own moon cycle and honor that within my body and womb.

I thought it would be neat to share. I do much more for the New Moon than the Full Moon and I hope you find something here that may deepen your connection as well.

Let Devotion Carry You

Devotion will carry you farther than discipline ever will.

Devotion is something you get to do, you choose to do, you enjoy doing.

Devotion is seeing life as an exquisite privilege.

You can find joy in the most mundane of tasks if you CHOOSE to.

Discipline, for me, requires me to stay on task for something I am forcing.

Devotion is the heart, discipline is the mind telling the heart what it needs to do.

All of last year, I kept a rigid meditation schedule. I can count the number of times I slept past 5:00am last year on one hand. I turned my practice into something I HAD to do. I would feel like crap if I didn’t have time to keep my rigid routine, and I completely lacked compassion towards myself if I missed my routine.

Life happens! Kids get sick, you’re tired, energy fluctuates. Your frequency changes. I’m not a Sage in a cave. I’m a Mama, Wifey and Entrepreneur. Everyday is different. Hard plans don’t work for me.

Yesterday, I was up at 4:19am and spent all morning in meditation, made fresh juice, had all my supplements and vitamins and took a walk before anyone in my house was awake. Today, I spent the morning with my husband and rolled out of bed around 8am and ate a chocolate truffle while I made toast.

BOTH were good mornings. BOTH nourished my soul.

It’s not this OR that.

It’s this AND that!

You are literally Divine, everything you do is Divine. You are Divine right now this minute. You don’t have to do anything to be Divine.

I’m releasing the “have to’s” of everything and simply just embracing life. I live for today. I can meditate at 5am or 5pm. I can feed my body healthily with love and still enjoy food. You can embody a high frequency and still find magic in being human. We worry so much about fixing things or not effing up things that we forget to enjoy things. Life is more than meeting goals and milestones and taking the next course. You can hear your own soul when you cut that noise down a bit.

When you release that need for control, what’s meant for you comes to you. Joy is the greatest power to attract everything and anything you want. You can can just choose it. It’s so profoundly simple.

Devote yourself everyday and allow that devotion to be what you need that day and that moment. The flow that devotion creates will take you farther than discipline ever will.
