 Hello! Are you ready for the first blue moon, total lunar eclipse in 150 years (in the Americas)? Pretty exciting stuff! We started January 2018 with a full moon on the 1st, and now, here we are again. So let’s start with the facts: What makes this a ‘Blue Moon’: When there are two full moons in a calendar month it is commonly called a “Blue Moon”. January 2018 stormed in with two full moons, but sadly February will have none. :( The last Blue Moon occurred in July 2015, but 2018, we'll experience two of them, a phenomena that won't happen for another 19 years. (The second Blue Moon this year will occur in late March.) What makes this a ‘Super Moon’: A super moon occurs when the moon is full or new, and closest to earth. The full moon on January 31st will be the third full super moon since December 3rd. The full super blue moon on the 31st will pass through the earth’s shadow, giving us a total lunar eclipse. A Blue Moon combined with a Super moon is rare. Super moons generally only occur once every 14 months and will not happen again until January 2019. The last time all of these events occurred simultaneously in the Western hemisphere was 1866. You remember 1866, right? The US House of representatives passed the 14th Amendment - The Civil Rights Act, Andrew Johnson was President, and Jesse James completed his first robbery.  Wait, Isn’t this also a ‘Blood Moon’?
Lunar eclipses are always interesting, though the "blood moon" is a much rarer event. Instead of a total eclipse, the moon is bathed in a red-orange hue of refracted light coming from around the Earth. Although some people think of this as a bad omen, but according to Indian mythology, a red Moon is luckier than a regular Full Moon. (We will discuss this further in this months Full Moon Class.) What this means for you: Full moons are times of awakening and completion, and everything is magnified. January 31st is a powerful time to recognize the amazing opportunities before you and celebrate your recent success! The upcoming moon will be the regal sign of Leo. This moon will foster and increases your desire for strength, equality and good things. Some people are calling this event “The Superwoman Full Moon” - this full moon will emanate special and rare feminine lunar energy, infused with the creativity, leadership, and dignity of fire sign Leo. This moon is also about ‘who you are’ and who you are becoming. You will probably find yourself more willing to try new things, be more open and honest about your true feelings and feel more driven to be the best you, during this powerful phase. And heads up Empaths! It’s likely this coming full moon/lunar eclipse, will bring heightened sensitivity and more intuitive dreams. Eclipses affect our personal fields just as they change the earth’s electromagnetic energy field. So expect to extra intuitive and more emotional than normal. Overall, this will be a dramatic time for most people as the lunar eclipses bring up emotional and internal issues to be examined and healed.

Reiki Blessings, Sarah  From today’s card pull on snapchat, my id is sarahpthomas if you want to see the whole reading. Life can be frightening. Between threats of terrorism, natural disasters and media overload we can easily get caught up in fearful thinking, I think we tend to forget that fearful thoughts of danger can trigger feelings of vulnerability and anxiety. Often the key is to remember they are just “thoughts” not facts. Today's card on the (almost) daily card pull on Snap Chat summed this up. We get caught in fearful thinking and it is difficult to move past it. We then manifest more anxiety by worrying. The key is to remember that we are safe and to trust our own judgement. Listen to your intuition and your body, if you feel something is a bad idea, then don't go. But also don't let fear from the media or other people stop you from living your life. The affirmation for this card is: “I am safe. I am secure. I am completely protected at all time.” Repeat as needed throughout the day to dispel anxiety and fearful thoughts. The card is from the Fairies Oracle Deck and the stones pictured are green aventurine and tumbled quartz. If you need a bit of direction or support today you can book a mini card reading for guidance with me or one of the gifted card readers here at Serenity. (Email or message for a special deal!) Reiki Blessings, Sarah Are you ready for the new energy?
