Welcome dear friends.
This is Sarah and I'm so happy to be back with you again.
This practice is for the full moon and lunar eclipse in Capricorn.
As always it is a guided practice and it's interactive so we'll take some time to do some reflection and journaling together as we explore the themes of this big full moon that we have happening.
It would be helpful if you had a journal or just some paper and a pen handy and just to find a comfortable place to be for the next little while.
If you need to go and grab those things do that now and if you're here and you're ready let's just take a breath together.
Let's just inhale deeply and just fully exhale and see if we can just let go a little bit of that swirling storm that's going on outside.
It can be difficult to find a port in the storm so we have to learn how to be our own and we have to learn how to ground in and breathe in and tune in when we need to.
With this full moon we have a return to the Capricorn energy that we started the year with.
This week we have had Jupiter,
Planet of expansion and Pluto,
Planet of transformation meeting up in Capricorn for the second time this year and this time they are both in retrograde.
We also have Saturn moving back into Capricorn and this full moon will be in Capricorn too and if you've been with us on this journey since the start of the year you'll know that the themes of Capricorn are around dismantling structures.
Capricorn rules big business,
It rules governments,
It rules societies and hierarchies and societal constructs and ways of being and we see these themes this year of these things being dismantled and they are being dismantled so they may be rebuilt but it can be difficult to be amongst the storm.
Think of this full moon and this return to the Capricorn energy as a check-in point.
When Saturn started to move through Aquarius we experienced all these themes of humanity coming together and making change and we've had a little taste of that now and what it could look like and then we have this check-in point that says what are the lessons you've learned?
Is there anything that we've missed out?
Is there anything that we haven't done?
Is there anywhere that we are still giving away our power?
Because these themes of power and control are all tied up in this energy too.
These Jupiter and Pluto conjunctions are expanding both our personal and the collective transformation and the taking back of power.
So let's begin by reflecting together and let's just take some time to reflect back to the start of the year when we first had all this Capricorn energy.
We had a stellium of planets in Capricorn.
Let's consider everything that's been dismantled in our lives since then.
Think about structures with Capricorn.
So these are structures that we have created for ourselves that maybe we thought were holding us up but now we realize that they weren't serving us.
They are belief systems that we realize that we've outgrown.
They are relationships,
Friendships,
Work relationships where we realize that we have been giving our power away.
All of these things which are no longer serving us we have had this opportunity to review really from January into now.
So let's consider all these things and write them down.
What have you been dismantling and discarding this year?
I'll keep an eye on the time for you and I'll come back to you in two minutes.
There's one minute left.
Capricorn is represented by the sea goat.
The sea goat is able to swim all the way down to the depths and then climb back out and climb up.
This is the energy that we have available to us now.
This is our final check-in point where we ask ourselves is there anything I have missed?
Is there something that needs to go I've been avoiding?
Have I slipped up somewhere and let myself fall back into old habits?
These are all the themes that we can consider because this eclipse in Capricorn is the last in a series of eclipses on the Cancer and Capricorn access that have been happening for the past couple of years.
It's our final goal.
Capricorn is strong earth energy and while it dismantles structures it also builds them and it builds them from a strong foundation and that's what we have the opportunity to do now.
It's to re-examine the beliefs,
The behaviors,
The attitudes,
The patterns,
Everything and rebuild anew and it's an opportunity for us to fully claim back our personal power because we're just starting to understand how much personal power we have.
So let's take two minutes now just to think about whether there's anything that you've missed,
Whether there's anything else that needs to go,
Whether there's something that you've been avoiding dealing with,
Where you've still been giving away your power or where you might have slipped back into old habits despite the realizations over the past months.
Write all that down and I'll keep an eye on the time and as always I will come back to you in two minutes.
You have one minute left to go.
You have one minute left to go.
A full moon is always a release point and with it comes this energy that we can tap into this higher energy that allows us to let go and all this Capricorn energy reminds me of a piece of art that I have and the words on it are create and destroy and it reminds me that there is no creation without destruction and that we need to dismantle,
Break down,
Destroy in order for us to move forward.
We have this huge huge opportunity at the moment to really tap into this power that we hold within us for creation.
Jupiter and Pluto coming together in conjunction help us with that and this Capricorn full moon is that last push to destroy before we begin to create again.
It can be really helpful with the full moon for us to write down everything that we now wish to be free of,
That we wish to dismantle,
That we wish to break down and ask that the full moon helps us to be free of it.
So let's write these things down together and let's write them as powerful affirmations,
We create what we speak.
So let's take two minutes and write down some power statements.
I am free from,
I no longer give power to,
I take power back from.
I'll keep an eye on the time for you and I'll come back to you in two minutes.
There's one minute to go.
You can take your list and if it's helpful you can use the energy of the full moon to help you symbolically release everything that you've written down.
You can burn your piece of paper,
You can rip it into pieces,
Anything you like but use that as a ritual and use it to really help you to fully let go now of everything that doesn't need to come with us.
The energy might feel chaotic but it is the building block of something much better and you might want to finish with a power statement and you might want to write it down or you might want to speak it aloud and you can say I claim my power,
I step into my power,
It is done.
This is our personal transformation point of the year and it's time for you to find your power,
To take it back,
To stand up for what you believe in and to stop giving your power away.
It's time for you to start.
Wishing you a happy full moon.
Talk to you soon.
