Nourish the Sacred Feminine

illusions, fear or anxiety about the unknown, potentially missing something that you can't see, a time to let go of negative self-talk and to tap into your innate inner knowing, work to be done with the shadow self

Now is a time of deep introspection as you wait for an idea to grow and develop. You've planted the seeds, and sometimes divine timing requires a period of rest as things culminate and ripen. The moon asks you to open to receive. To pause and collapse into waiting. She's the waning crescent that casts a moonlit glow over the landscape of your life. She has trickled light onto your path but only very dimly; because she hopes that you will listen for the subtle signs and the wise whispers that are all around you.

It's time to look directly into the shadows at any lingering wounds that may continue to affect your current understanding. Remember that in the dark, it's easy to blow fear and illusion out of proportion. Don't strain to see that which you cannot see right now. Instead, focus on your inner knowing, and on what you can see. Allow your intuitive nudges and any persistent feelings to help you translate her gentle illuminations. You must trust yourself.
