Full Moon in Wild and Wise

This wayfaring tree has been calling to me.  It grows near our patio, and I don’t remember its leaves remaining this far into December. They are such a lovely shade of purple.

It is said that if you come across a wayfaring tree, you are either on or near your path. (Let’s hope so!)

It is also said that they are invasive in Illinois. So, this wayfarer may be going away fairly soon. Sad!

Anyway, it’s a full moon today, and I am feeling such a big energy surrounding and uplifting me.

It feels celebratory and liberating. It feels like a good day to sing really loudly. 

Per my daily routine, I pulled an oracle card. Today’s was from Alana Fairchild’s Sacred Rebels deck, and the card chosen was: Relax The Hold Of Darkness And Be At Cause.

I love this card. It captures today’s energy perfectly. Here’s an excerpt from the guidebook: 

“You have to leave behind the dark weighty grip of hesitation, procrastination, second guessing and the belief you have to do everything on your own. You may fear for your life! How will you be safe in the wild, electrical pulse of so much aliveness? How will you function without the hazy, sleep-inducing paralysis of playing it safe, taking too long and placing lesser priorities above your sacred art of life? How will you hold yourself back if you don’t hold on to fear? You do not need to worry about such things. Life is wild, but it is also wise. It is a force of starling raw awakening at times, but it is also the natural process of evolution where all things mature according to a seasonal cycle, in right timing. You are a part of, not apart from, that process.” 

Be wild and wise, All!
