"Full moon December 25 in Cancer" by Patty Shaw.

The sign of Cancer brings both nurturing energy and unbalanced moody energy. When we are courageously stepping out of our comfort zone and consciously choosing to grow up, it can be the source of great happiness and pride, but beware of the spiritual hangover waiting for you under the tree.

 

Christmas day can be the trigger that takes you back to old feelings you worked so hard to forgive and move past. It is also the opportunity to test yourself. Believe it or not, today’s frivolities are exactly what is needed to finish the work you did in your healing sessions or workshops. Before you react, pause and take a moment to remember the goals you set for yourself. You may even want to practice before hand or write a short script. Then, when the manipulation, insult, guilt trip, anger, yada yada yada happens you’ll be ready for it and do the thing you’ve been training for.

It’s not the insult you are responsible for, it’s your reaction to it. How does the new you want to react? Use your will to override your emotions and be in charge of your dynamic. The rewards are tremendous. Let Coventry magic support your moon magic with this suggestion. Before you gather with the family tree, do a ritual of self-love. Light the Inner Beauty and Goddess Affirmation candles in your honor, affirming that this Christmas season is filled with love for you. Even if those around you have not learned how to express their love, it is still there, in the very air you breathe. Be open and let the love in.

"New moon December 11 in Sagittarius" by Patty Shaw.

It’s what it feels like when your life doesn’t match the new you. You can be out of phase with people and situations and your emotions run the gambit anywhere from sad to having a full out meltdown. It goes the same for people close to you. For a while, they feel out of phase with you. When you are the trailblazer in your world, going first in the personal evolution department you are more prone to SH’s. If you are the one bringing up the rear you may be the author of someone else’s spiritual hangover. Don’t laugh.

During this new moon in Sagittarius we can pull in the archer’s energy to help us through our spiritual hangovers. This moon nudges you to rise above regrets or resentments, use a little humor to soften the edges and take your life a little less seriously. Yes you’ve changed, but they haven’t, so go easy on everyone. Sure your new empowerment means releasing the past, but it takes time to let go and get used to the new you. Sometimes you need the comfort of old habits while you gain courage to act differently, think differently and be different. May I suggest you do a little affirming? Get yourself a Luck affirmation and affirm that you are the lucky bastid who cheated the Grinch out of spoiling another Christmas for you.
