As always, a new moon is a time to go inward & reflect, heal, re-build. Check in with your own wisdom, in quiet retreat, So re-treat yourself & clear out the ashes.
I am a Jyotishi & study the planetary energies based on the East Indian tradition of astrology, thousands of years before the western style was introduced. Jyotish astrology readings function as a “life-counsellor” to help you navigate your life.
Magha is the 10th placement of the ‘New’ Lunar Mansion, the Nakshatra resting completely in the sign of Leo – the lion’s forehead. Magha means “Mighty One” or “the Great”
The stellar radiance of the stars is described as a sickle-shape group of 6-stars in the night sky’s with one star – Regulus, which is said to be100-times brighter than our Sun.
Keto – is powerful, mysterious & magical. Ketu is the Sanskrit name for the south node of the Moon, called the Dragonʼs Tail (as in flying snake or the Nahuales Kan) .This is a good time to release & loosen anything that is knotted up inside or strangling you – what is known as “unconscious entanglement”.
He ruling planet & reminds of of the truth. Being in Libra – his transit requires a restructuring with relationships, sense of (self-care) support & stability, as well as your own creativity.
Magha rule the realm of the “Fathers of Humanity” We are coming to the time of Shravana or Tarpana, an important time to support & honour our ancestors. Dennis Harness Ph.D. says: “The great Fathers of Humanity act as guardian angels giving protection in the major events of calamities on earth”.
A lot of the grief is carried as it relates to our ancestors – so why not face the fears, the pain, the sorrows & add power to your lineage as you deal directly with the karmas. Nothing is ever here to harm you.
We celebrated Thursday @ the Studio & during the Sacred Fire Ceremony prayers of peace, light & healing were made to our innermost lineages. We need to live our lives & not just talk about the “someday, I will”. Instead remember the words “What you can conceive you can achieve”
Soon an invitation will go out so you too can join us. I’ll prepare from In The Quiet ~ A Tiny Part of Something Big to make our offerings @ Hersey, as we did last year. You will be guided at the lake to come together & perform with sincerity, with absolute faith to pay homage. We will offer up our gratitude to our ancestors and request their guidance, in the traditional way with the outmost care to return the spirits & keep protected. This will be about making time to assist in freeing them from any unfulfilled desires so that they can complete their journey to the heavenly abode with peace, satisfaction and happiness.
Arrogance, prejudice & hubris are the downfall or shadow side of Magha. Motivated & attached to attaining wealth, material possessions and often not content. “Win the kingdom but lose the soul” … more unnecessary suffering.
Here’s the deal…ask yourself – honestly these questions: What is your ideal definition of success? Do you need to prove to others anything? Who are you in competition with & why? Do they really care? At what cost do we compromise our high standards, just to please who?
Instead, let’s get down to ignite the spark to be creative – ask “What do I want?” and keep asking 21 times…..you will see it when you get there. For ultimately, we must remember, WE ARE HERE TO LOVE, over & over & over again. Slow down & concentrate on your own self-care. Love & Light / Always, Kallisto Lynn Pell
