The wishing moon


I allow the special relationship/partnership I am seeking to come into my life now. Today, I open my heart, mind and arms wide to receive this special being and experience more love I have ever known.

It is a number three day full of communication, short jaunts and intellectual pursuits. The Moon is in her most fertile phase and ready for planting the seeds/wishes for our future dreams. Now we can consciously ask for our desired outcomes and coat them with love and intention. Make a list for what we believe will enhance our lives and begin the process with an open heart and mind.

The Chariot is the first major arcana card this morning. The Cancerian ruled card is about choices – which direction will we take? The choice is ours to make – we have control of the reigns. The Lovers optimises the cosmic flow of the day with love and communication on the menu. The Emperor reminds us it is essential that we follow through on our wishes and not just sit there on our bums. He is a hard task master who suggests the planting of the wishes but demands action in the sowing phase. It is your star – reach for it now!

Today is a rest and rejuvenate day for me – a massage this morning and then a manicure and a pedicure at home – some astro-research and then some time with my Book of Shadows to plant this months New Moon wish list. What about you?

Remember: My intentions inspire me. When my intentions are while, I am inspired (in touch with spirit) and enthused (in touch with divine intelligence). I am successful.

Have a totally brilliant and successful day – you deserve it!

Peace and Love,

Nothing is beyond our reach



The life partner that is perfect for me is attracted to me now, as I am to him/her. We come together at the perfect time in the perfect way.

This morning I’ve woken from a deep sleep feeling sublimely joyous. I feel sated, nurtured and love beyond the realms of my imagination. While transiting the corridor between slumber and awake-ness I heard Angels singing in a church which took me to the height of my passions leaving me feeling vibrant and alive. I am blessed and I am profoundly grateful – for what? For everything!

Today the Sun and Neptune escort the mystical side of us into the weekend. WE are free to explore the spiritual side of ourselves and to allow the joyous moment of being human take us to new levels of awareness. Why is this alignment so special and brilliant? It is because we are able to tap into this energy without using any illicit substances. If we are open to the subtleties of Neptune then we are able to absorb this mystical Neptunian influence freely and more importantly without the downside of addiction.

So, why is this dunking of our spirit into the Neptunian well so important? It is because we mere mortals are subject to so many distractions here on earth. We toil away at our job’s diligently achieving our outcomes, focusing our energies on the goals of living a good life and so on. Is this agenda a bad thing? No, definitely not! As a matter of fact this tall order is part of our mission here in Earth School.

However, it is days like this that remind us of the true purpose of our soul evolution and give us the opportunity to explore the internal voice or journey to the rim our of existence. We can tap into the cosmic flow and channel the influences beyond the curtain of reality. Indulge your passions! Enjoy the journey! As William Blake reminds us, “those who restrain Desire, do so because there is weak enough to be restrained.”

The shimmering orb is my first card for today. The Moon is in her secret phase and is secluded ready to receive the wish list of our desires. Temperance seeks the philosophical mantra of peace and love; balance and prudence while striding the mountains toward enlightenment. The World is my oyster – but what if I don’t like oysters? Then the world is my cornucopia of all things delectable – fresh and vibrant!

It’s an 11/2 day which portends as a public/private affair. Sure a great day to undertake the Saturn-day obligations. Conversely, it is a day to socialise. The Sun and Moon are in Libra which is an invitation to seek the pleasurable side of life – what indulgences are on your menu? You are an expression of unconditional love – who is your mirror? How will you honour yourself and others today?

On days like these we are all capable of being; the poet, actor, romantic soul so don’t wallow in the misery of what is not but rather explore the possibilities of what is to be.

Tomorrow is the New Moon in Libra. I have suggested some Libra aspects to consider in Harlequin’s Haven this month. However there are many, many more facets to the Libran ardour. Libra is ruled by Venus the planet of beauty, love a wealth so consider these areas as the nucleolus as you explore around her centre. Take your own magical mystery tour – step right this way. Allow the Neptunian pan pipe wish you away into the beauty and truth of your existence everything else is non existent. Pipe your favourite music into your conscious mind all day and allow yourself to be free from the confines of the to do lists and disempowering language of the ‘woulds’ and ‘coulds’ – instead – just BE!

Remember stand strong in your personal power, with true power that comes from within, nothing is beyond your reach.

Peace and Love,

24 Days to go – Day XIX – New Moon in Virgo



Loreena McKennitt lulls me into a Celtic bliss. Her melodic seductive tones are engaging as she sings The Mummer’s Dance (Book of Secrets). Her sons transport me into a lush grove and circles of magic and repose. I am uplifted and connected to the sounds of the forest in the early morning light.

Actually, I have returned to my childhood residence (my mother’s house) for the weekend. I am here to reconnect with family. Last night I slept (soundly) in my old bedroom. Familiar visitors come to me during the night to heal the scars of sadness and disappointment. The crash and bang of the Universe has played out in my life and now it is time to surrender and gather my strength ready to move on.

I am reminded, as above – so below! I’m not denying that the treble eclipse season and the crash of the heavy weights (Saturn-v- Uranus) has not left me a little bewildered and somewhat punch drunk. However, as the New Moon peeped through the crack of my discontent I felt a rush of hope. The dark phase has given me a clean slate to write the next act of my script. This morning the seeds of optimism, health, well-being, love and joy are planted in the richness of this fertile meadow.

Throughout my life I’ve been a ware of the cycles of the Moon. From the intensity of the full moon to the opulence of the new moon I’ve honoured and integrated changes within me. The individual cycles have created seasonal shifts with planting, sowing and reaping. These phases have influenced my thoughts, emotions and ultimately my world.

This New Moon is a season for me to gather my individual skills and abilities and to forge ahead into a new territory. Saturn is supportive this shift – Chronos loves the project plan. Goals and outcomes have been considered and I am off to satisfy my hearts desire.

It’s day XIX of my detox and I’ve stared the day with a cup of warm water. The cleansing of my system is integrity to the purity of my mind. Negative thoughts and rancid conversations are rinsed from my aura and I am open to receive the positive and fresh experiences coming my way.

Hermes offers all of the tools necessary to carry out a magical future. Prometheus suggests going with the flow; whereas the Moon in all her splendour shines brightly in my spread offering messages of creativity, loyalty and peace.

The morning song of Ms McKennitt pacifies me and I am in a trans-like state. The journey of reflection is a powerful elixir for my soul. Decisions are made; plans are in place for the next episode of my alchemy.

Peace and Love,

Julia Ashton-Sayers
