More On The Moon And Your Feeling Body

You have noticed, many of you, how many people are on edge - nervous and worried. I have spoken of these things before but I feel it's important to bring up this matter again. I do not expect you to be able to command calm nor do I recommend it but I do feel that there's something you need to know - for certain things happen with purpose. So this is a bit of an awareness tip-off.

There is a time towards the motion of the moon to reflecting less light that is important for you to note. When the moon gets to the last quarter and starts moving towards the new moon this is a time when people get less support for their feeling body.

The moon provides a great deal of support for your feeling body and as a result without that light and if you do not live near a large body of water - a lake, the sea for example - and even more so if you live or work in a large building and don't get out very much you might find yourself getting a bit more nervous and jumpy. I know some of you know exactly what I'm talking about. So, couple of suggestions.

During this time of the last quarter until the new moon and then also the new moon to the first quarter of the moonlight it's very important for you to pay attention not only to your own jumpiness or nervousness but also that in others.

So, suggestion. Try to be around bodies of water if you can - but many of you cannot. In which case if possible, get out and walk around unless your work or your activities take you outside. If you're able, move around briskly on your walk or if you're able run if you can or jog - only if you are able and it's healthy for you to do so. But there are some of you who cannot do this for various reasons - then I recommend you do this.

When the moon is more full than the first quarter but at least a day before the full moon, because the full moon has other activities that it supports, or when it's at least a day after the full moon and the moon is moving back towards that first quarter but is not quite there yet - if you are able look towards the moon in the sky and say the following Living Prayer. "I am asking that even when I am unable to access the moon energy or the energy of the natural water in the sea or in the lake or at the headwaters of a river or at the spring that I receive light from the moon or extra light from the sun or extra light from Creator and Angels and other beings of light and love to support my feeling body and the feeling bodies of all beings."

That's what I recommend you do. Goodlife.

Support During The New Moon Cycle

Originally uploaded by kimbar

This is for some of you who are very sensitive to the cycles of the moon.

At this time of the month that I refer to as the New Moon Cycle which is 3 days before the new moon, the new moon and 3 days after the new moon you may be particularly sensitive.

You might notice that your feelings are a bit more edgy or ragged and this is because you are not receiving your normal nurturing from the moon. The moon does nurture your feminine side and it doesn't matter whether you're a man or a woman.

Therefore for those of you who are particularly sensitive to moon energy this is a time when you need to have an alternative. This is the best alternative and the simplest one that I have to offer.

I recommend that you go out sometime during the day. It doesn't have to be noon or any specific time but it would be helpful during the New Moon Cycle if you can go out and close your eyes but look towards the sky where the sun is.

Keep your eyes closed so your eyes are not affected. If it is a cloudy day but the sun is bright behind the clouds you can keep your eyes open but if you wish or if the clouds are thin and present sometimes over the sun and not present other times then close your eyes and look at the sun and just breathe in and out normally - 10 breaths ought to do it. If you're a little rushed for time you can take 3 deep breaths and slowly let them out.

Generally speaking this is something that will give you more strength but it will also give you more light. You can do this once a day during the New Moon Cycle and it will help your strength, your balance, to a lesser degree but present your co-ordination - yes - and it will nurture your spirit. That's what I recommend. Goodlife.

The Moon As A Relevant Participant In Your Life

You have all noticed lately that there are times in the month when you feel more - how can we say - when you feel it is more difficult to go about and do your life.
For some of you this is because of the Moon and the experiences you might have in your body because of the regulation of the Moon. Now why do I call it the regulation of the Moon? Moon has many aspects to it - beauty of course and it is noticeable - the affect of the Moon on the tides and yet what is often overlooked is that the Moon has an effect on all fluids.
When women have their Moon time it is an effect on fluid, yes and yet different women will have this effect at different times of the month. This has largely to do with your bodies regulatory system but also has to do with your personal interaction with the Moon. The Moon is a, how can we say - a physical extension of your own bodies. You might find that hard to understand but what this means is that your physical bodies are made up of the Earth, yes - yes of course they are and even though Creator is contributing to your immortal soul your physical bodies are made up of Earth and what is available on Earth. The Moon however is the companion of the Earth and as the companion it supports the Earth in its fluids and anything on the Earth that contains fluids.
The Moon therefore is your companion in not only fluids and liquids but is your companion in the feminine. The feminine is flexible and while the masculine stands for strength, strength is not always flexible. Therefore given that strength can be shattered and flexibility cannot be shattered, it only bends, strength cannot live without flexibility. Man does not always have woman available for flexibility but man has Moon available. Moon then is contributing not only to the feminine but contributing in a very profound way to the masculine and without the Moon the masculine simply could not exist on Earth.
Do you know that the feminine, a feminine being could exist someplace with no Moonlight, meaning the feminine could exist in a perpetual state of New Moon but the masculine could never exist that way. That is why almost all the old stories of great fears and the old superstitions of great fears because of New Moon were all generated because of the masculine's experience with New Moon which is difficulty.
I'm going to give something today just for men and that's a Living Prayer you can say for yourself and as you know Living Prayer does effect others whereas Benevolent Magic is something you say only for yourself even though it may have an extended benevolent impact on others and this is what I recommend you say if you are a man or a boy and you are interested in these things.
I recommend you say, "I am asking that at times when I have an insolvable problem in my life that I experience the most benevolent influence of feminine energy available to me to support my own flexibility and my ability to stretch and grasp inspiration and inspiration's meaning and my ability to move beyond rigid standards." And since I do not wish to leave out the women readers I would like to offer a Living Prayer you can say as well if you wish. If you'd like you can say, "I am asking that all male energy on Earth in form or in influence experience a pervasive, nurturing feminine counterpart at all times when flexibility and inspiration would be most benevolently welcome."
That's my recommendation for today. I'll say more about these things as time goes on. Goodlife to you all and goodnight.
