The Moon - Mystery and Illusion
How do the cards always know...something?? Our first collective draw of Pisces Sun season, on a Moonday (as these blessing blogs always are, so maybe we won’t go overboard with that synchronicity) and during the few days while the Moon is in Cancer...the Many Queens Tarot delivers us a blessing from the Moon herself! Lettie Jane Rennenkamp says “Look for the reflected light in the darkness, don’t be afraid of your shadows, it’s safe here with us. Avoiding your shadow self will only delay growth. Be brave and try to find comfort in dark emotions.”
Astro-Glyph and Invocation Sigil
Here we combine the glyphs for the Sun in Pisces Trine the Moon in Cancer with the invocation for “Shadows Honored.”
Questions For Your Shadow to Alchemize Moon/Pisces Wisdom
If you had to admit to yourself that you really really really are magical….what would you list as your otherworldly qualities?
Are you able to find ways to honor your shadows when they show up as self-destructive and self-pitying patterns? What happens when you envision yourself as a nurturing Piscean Mother cradling these patterns as children needing to be soothed? What happens when we tell our shadows that they are allowed to be rather than trying to blast them into “good behavior” with “the light”?
As all mutable signs bridge the transition between seasons, how are you embodying mutable water to usher in spring? Can you feel mutability in your body? Flexibility? Melting? Adaptability? Creativity beginning to flow? What else? List some of your own.
The Moon also corresponds with Goddess Diana/Artemis who presides over childbirth. She not only rules bringing new life into the world, but also answers the cries of women in labor praying for relief from suffering. What creative endeavor of yours feels like childbirth right now? What pain would you pray for Artemis to remove if you could only choose one?
What is the first thing you see when you visualize bringing a secret part of your inner landscape to the outside world to help the greater good?
