FEBRUARY 2,
2018 CANDLEMAS-VIRGO MOON
Today is the
quarter point in the heavens between the Winter Solstice and Spring Equinox
when the Sun is in Aquarius. The name itself explains much – candle = flame and
mas = mass or celebration. The Earth begins the first signs of rebirth and
life. All of nature stirs to awaken through budding of trees and many animals
begin preparing to start families. To be in sync with this time of year, many celebrate
by lighting bon fires and having church services to pay reverence. This is a
wonderful time to align with nature and acknowledge the great awakening that is
also within you. A single candle flame is sufficient. Having a meal with
intention, accepting that you will be moving forward into a new time of greater
light and blessings is also sufficient. If you find a bunch of people
frolicking on a hillside with torches then great! Otherwise, your own personal
moment of connecting is just as meaningful.
