Heart of Gaia

Hello Fellow Travelers,  This new moon eclipse is a perfect time for a ritual. Ritual is using your intentional thoughts to create and manifest an outcome or desire. Before you decide what outcome or desire you are wanting to manifest or create, you must first take some time to release. Release is the key for this new moon/eclipse.  A s a collective we are all in the healing waters, desiring to let go of all that has hurt us, caused us to feel victimized or martyred. You may have worked diligently to overcome feelings of victimization, become more connected to your own sense of power, and handed over the chains of martyrdom long ago.
