halfway through the astrological year

As we transition from summer to fall, September acts as a portal of change, restarting the elemental cycle with Leo/Virgo energy. Fire to Earth. Many of us feel a cleaning energy, a need to prepare for winter and the changing of things. Leo’s fire offers a chance to burn bridges, set your life ablaze and watch it all go up in flames. An opportunity to release the pieces of ourselves, our lives, our habits and our routines that are slowing the process of evolution, distracting from the divine goal of knowing thyself and providing the chance to create the very ashes we will be reborn from, like a phoenix. This September, with its full moon eclipse in Pisces, shed that stagnancy and prepare to consistently, solidly, live anew.
From August and September we literally got from Lion to Virgin. What a crazy jump!
This Leo season burned a lot to the ground. The whole 2024 year has been a whirlwind of changes and this fall were coming off a strong eclipse season in early spring and a summer of retrogrades paired with unique astrological events, the new moon in Virgo is lighting a fire or rather ‘digging the earth’ of cycle completion, cleaning and grounding energy. We’ve created space for whats next, but just because there’s space doesn’t mean were ready.
A deep clean is also needed to welcome in this new force. Organizing and finalizing the projects you envisioned for this year. The halfway mark gives you permission to toss what you can, rearrange others and finish what you started.
Give your floors and yourself a good wash with essential oil.
Detox the air in every corner of your spaces; closets, ceilings and crawl spaces - some energies know how to hide.
Walk barefoot, repot some plants, lean on a tree, drink tea; anything to ground yourself.
Light candles daily and notice your intentions.
It’s giving sent, paid for, done, accepted, chosen, deposited.
Spirit is saying a lot this season. Summer offered a ton of transformative lessons asking you to open yourself up to something different and use this fall to slow down and explore self in conjunction with your core wants and needs. We are all one, and every action and inaction is exactly right for the energy needed to be provided back to the tree of life ensuring vitality for all.
Adopt this intense energy of renewal, of return, of refleshing, and reviving the buried parts of our divine existence. You are a butterfly, letting the last of the now unneeded cocoon to fall away, stretching your wings and preparing for flight. What did the cocoon teach you about who you are now?
