Happy May! May day, Beltane, Mother's Day - It is my intention that this newsletter finds you content wherever you are and with whatever you are doing.
May 1st was a gateway day with the energy fresher and the momentum at a much higher level. The world has been adjusting rapidly and people, places, things, values and beliefs have been changing rapidly . The way things were, is no longer the present situation, and things are in the process of shifting themselves, metabolizing and adjusting. What was "sane" is no longer, what WAS no longer IS and hopefully you have managed to move forward and untangle yourself from your own constraints or those of others, to learn to be in balance no matter what situation presents. Discernment, personal focus, balance and clarity is high (although perhaps not what you wish to see). Temperance, awareness, acknowledgement and self-discipline are fabulous skills to implement in your routine at this time, along with a good sense of humor and the fun of play.
The New Moon on May 3rd is in Taurus - New moons are new beginnings. A great time to launch a new project, new idea, new concept in conjunction with this moon it is a good time to evaluate what you are creating - as your thoughts become your reality, be careful what image you are projecting regarding the value of your worth and identify if your value is coming from within or from the opinion of others. It is a good time to observe your personal areas of "stubbornness" and release those beliefs that no longer serve you. Intrinsically it is a good time to evaluate and utilize an objective level of discernment. Go within to review your choices and options. This month there will be the opportunity for greater understanding and decisions regarding relationships and personal direction.
Tarot for the month of May is the Page of Cups:
The suit of Cups is the Tarot suit that represents emotions. The Page of Cups card is, at its core, a manifestation of youthful emotions. There is creative energy trying to burst forth into your consciousness. The unconscious is trying to speak to you, possibly through your dreams or through synchronistic encounters with significant people. The message to be taken is that you must be open to the unexpected, occasionally bizarre impulses of the creative spirit and not shut out inspiration simply because it does not fit in with a rational point of view.
This month it would be beneficial to not entangle yourself or be easily tossed about by impersonal forces in the environment. This Page must work to achieve a stronger will and more calculating mind to balance all that sensitivity. You may wish to consider the importance of creativity, giving, and sharing. The tarot card has likely appeared as a warning that these gifts may be out of balance. I give, I receive, I receive I Give. The action begins with you - not with others...
In general, this card shows a need to play, to dream, to have a little fun. When this card appears, it sometimes means that you've been taking yourself far too seriously. Margot Fonteyn said "The one important thing I have learned over the years is the difference between taking one's work seriously and taking one's self seriously. The first is imperative and the second is disastrous." Know the difference.
Listen to your body with great care and great compassion. What might it be telling you? For example, if you're having back pain, are you carrying (literally or figuratively) too much?
Spirituality: You may need to revisit your spiritual rituals if your traditions have begun to feel stale. It might be helpful to give yourself the time and space to consider if or where you can pursue new spiritual information that might be interesting to you. Explore. Read spiritual things from other traditions/belief systems than your own. Expand you possibilities and remain out of judgment.
Questions to ask yourself of the Page of Cups:
What is your creative outlet? Are you being sensitive? Do you have your own personal style?
Inspiration is seen to be something which comes upon us most unexpected. Be honest, accountable and responsible for yourself, your behavior and your actions. Extend your observation to the impact YOU and your behavior has on others, and the behavior that others have upon you. Listen within, stop being a victim, and move forward embracing your true self.
The Full Moon on May 17th is in Scorpio. Loyalty, control, manipulation and relationships, things that may swing back from your past to bite you... Seek personal fulfillment by letting go of the desire to control of depend upon others. Full moons are a good one for letting go, as they are symbolic of completing a cycle and an ending. A great time for releasing control and sharing with others. Selfishness, overzealousness in ego and the need to be in control, judgment, needed for loyalty, power, or feelings of insecurity, manipulation are impeding your own value, self worth, freedom and relationships. Open your heart to GIVING and get out of your own way.
There is a Solar Eclipse June 1st in Gemini The Solar Eclipse is giving us a wakeup call and telling and commanding us to realize that this period in our evolution is a turning point in which we must take serious steps, and to make it happen. Change is not the only keyword, but versatility, adaptability, improvisation, and our need to be spontaneous with wisdom and judgment. To know also that everything beneficial or malefic placed in our path is for a purpose, and with wisdom and discernment, we will make the right choices for progress.
Personally, I am excited about the new WANNAHEALYAH Wellness Center that opened this year. I have an office within the center now, so your appointment can be scheduled for that facility as well. There are several wonderful practitioners that work there also, so there is a greater opportunity to connect with other like-minded people and complimentary light working modalities. I will be physically traveling again beginning in mid- June -July. As always, it is a pleasure to serve and facilitate for others, and of course, this wonderful planet we currently call home.
Safe travels,
Jara
