"I treat today like the dawn of a bright beginning.
I see my reflection like it has just been born into this brand new morning.
Yesterday sleeps. Tomorrow stays where it is.
How sublime it is to be only here—never having been here before."

Full Moon 5°07’ Libra | Monday 3/25/24 at 12:00 a.m. PT

"Libra teaches us that while our life's mission holds great significance, prioritizing inner peace is of utmost importance. Maintaining inner harmony surpasses all else. When we are energetically balanced, our vision becomes clear, and we can discern the next steps on our path. Even in the face of adversity, we possess the knowledge of how to navigate through it. A true warrior remains calm amidst the chaos of battle.

Libra also teaches us that our path is sweeter when shared with another. The challenge, however, lies in remaining true to our own journey while supporting the unique path of our partner...We must choose our battles wisely, knowing when to stand firm and when to go with the flow."

~Spirit Daughter

Eclipses

March 25: Penumbral Lunar Eclipse at 5° Libra gives us pause as the light dims. We may want to cover up, but instead use the renewed illumination to reveal ways we can share our true selves in harmony.

April 8: Total Solar Eclipse at 19° Aries. As the Sun darkens, lead by intuition to the places your heart awaits for renewal. Invite light to bring the spiritual grit we need, and look for a plot twist to reclaim your game.

Dancing Time | Crystals for the Full Moon in Libra

“The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance.”

~Alan Wilson Watts

"Love doesn't just sit there like a stone; it has to be made, like bread, remade all the time, made new."

~Ursula K. LeGuin

The Full Moon in Libra is concerned with matters of balance, relationships, and inner peace. All of these are continuous processes, active endeavors, instant upon instant of present moments linked like dancers flickering by firelight. For support in this dance, here are three crystals to ground, inspire, and soothe:

‍

Green Moonstone | A relatively uncommon form of moonstone, this crystal vibrates to the frequencies of intuition, magic, emotional balance, love, and compassion. Green Moonstone calms and encourages, teaching us the natural rhythms of life. It opens the heart to empathy and assists in the acceptance of love. Plus, this dreamy crystal is deeply connected to divine feminine energy, which balances your energy fields and encourages a peaceful and relaxed state, as well as promoting an overall sense of clarity and purity.

‍

Hematite | Hematite symbolizes balance, strength, and grounding Earth force--Feet planted firmly on the dance floor. Deeply linked to the root chakra, this stone serves in stabilizing the overthinking mind and calming excessive thoughts. Hematite brings you back the grounding energy of Mother Earth and transmits to your energy field a deep sense of protection and safety. It supports you in finding your unique gifts, and intentionally surpassing the bounds of self-imposed limitations.

‍

Rose Quartz | The ultimate stone of love and relationships, Rose Quartz is also a powerful stone to cultivate and nurture self-love. It is a deeply gentle, comforting crystal that soothes and brings solace in times of grief or loss. It restores trust and harmony in relationships, bringing deep inner healing and reassurance, while helping you to love and value yourself more completely. Rose Quartz invites love vibes into your life and is like a warm, fuzzy hug.

Open Yourself to the Universe

“At this moment, you are seamlessly flowing with the cosmos. There is no difference between your breathing and the breathing of the rain forest, between your bloodstream and the world’s rivers, between your bones and the chalk cliffs of Dover.”

~Deepak Chopra, The Book of Secrets: Unlocking the Hidden Dimensions of Your Life

‍

As the Full Moon in Libra teaches us, opening yourself up to others is a vital step on the way to being more receptive overall, and another important practice is to open yourself up to all the universe has to offer. After all, there are things you can receive from nature along, like the calm that being in a beautiful setting provides or the awe that an intense thunderstorm can produce. Try this meditation to open yourself up to the universe.

‍

~Sit in a peaceful place, on the ground or on a chair or cushion. Take a few big breaths, hold them in for a second or two, then release them sharply and with intention.

‍

~Expand your awareness from yourself and your immediate surroundings. Go slowly, zooming out your internal camera. Pull back until you can see your whole house or the building you live in, then your neighborhood, then your town or city, then your state or country, etc., until you have zoomed out so far that the earth is no longer perceptible.

‍

~Think about all that this universe has to offer you. Think about the unsolved mysteries, the questions left unanswered--and the questions we haven't even thought to ask yet--and all the beautiful, wonderful things in the known universe.

‍

~Know that when you open yourself up to receiving from the universe, you are also inviting awesome experiences into your life. Commit to staying open to receiving whatever the universe has in store for you.
