Working with the 8-8 Lion's Gate Portal Plus Pluto Square the Nodes of Future & Past: Letting Go & Making Room for the New.

Let go. It's time to cleanse, clear, and be done with it.  Now.  For real.  
​
What do you need to push past once and for all?  What's that feeling, that discomfort, that unconscious thing that creeps up from the depths that keeps you jumping back into old habits and patterns every time you get close to breaking free into the new, the unfamiliar that's both unknown AND desired?

I call it "the ickies."  It's that feeling of discomfort that sends you running right back to what you were committed to moving away from.  It can feel like a wobble, like loneliness, like emptiness, like anxiety or fear, like uncertainty or overwhelm, and it can be so intense it feels like you can't stand being in your skin.  It feels REAL, and URGENT. 

​And, if you aren't working with this very unconscious patterning consciously, it can send you right back to what you were wanting to break free from, perpetuating this feeling of being stuck and going in circles in your life, unable to break free.

So...deep breath now.  Stay the course.  This is a transition, and all you have to do is keep working that edge - keep working the transition.  It's easier to do this when you realize that what are feeling is normal, it's okay, and it's just something you are moving through.  (And there are tools to help you get through it!

This is on strong now, Friday, 8/4, through Monday 8/7, but you can consider it a major theme of this entire year - as I've been saying, 2023 is a transition year.
​
Let it go. Let it be. Unstick yourself and allow FLOW!!!

New things want to come in, but they can't if you are too busy clinging and blocking flow.

"Grippy-ness" and clinging are going to get increasingly uncomfortable, so take note now and be proactive.

The Energetic Dynamics at Play (The Astrology):

• We are in the waning gibbous moon now until the last quarter moon on Tuesday 8/8 (that lands the same day as the Lion's Gate portal, when the earth, Sirius, and the Orion constellation come into alignment) - the waning gibbous moon is the time between the full moon illumination/realisation, and last quarter moon choice point where we hold appreciation and integrate what has come to light to determine what it's time to release.
• Sat. 8/5 & Sun. 8/6, the moon is transiting Aries - and this "get things done" moon will be in league with Venus and Lilith (one at a time) in fellow fire sign Leo. The moon broadcasts and is our every day feels, and this means we are feeling fiery! It's about facing the shadow and releasing shame that has kept us shrinking and playing small. Remember - this is just a point in the larger journey.
• Mon. 8/7 & Tues. 8/8, the moon moves on into Taurus, slowing things down and providing more grounding, but Lilith and Venus RX in Leo arrive at their 2nd in a series of 3 conjunctions. Lilith is the wild feminine, the renegade, the one shamed for breaking free. Venus is love and money by way of self-value. Venus RX is a rebirth to self-worth, and this is a big turning point on our journey from 7/22 to 9/3. Where, how, are you ready to step into your creative power and full self-expression to expand into even more love and abundance by being uniquely you?
• These next few days are also the peak of Pluto in T-square to the nodes of future and past, destiny and karma. Pluto is the planet of death and rebirth transformation - the ultimate letting go to die to the old consciousness and be born to the new. This can feel daunting - even terrifying - and it requires us to face the unconscious/subconscious and our old conditioning and programming. This is peaking now, but it really has been in play since March and will linger all the way into December - that's why I say 2023 is a year of transition - but this weekend is your turning point.​​

​Not only is this the peak of Pluto in square to the nodes, bringing us to a major crossroads, an intersection of past and future requiring us to let go to move forward, Tuesday is the 8-8 Lion's Gate portal - an auspicious time for making major moves towards our goals and manifesting our desires.

Miracles can happen when we are really willing to fully let go and let the current carry us and stop the resisting. It takes courage, so have heart. It's all around you, it's all hovering, waiting for your energy to open in alignment so it can come into your reality - but you have to make the dimension shift, the energetic shift - you have to step forward into the new, into the unknown, into the unfamiliar.

​You have to be wiling to let go of the old. And that means not just that person or job or thing - it means the energetic pattern, that deep subconscious programming, that thing that you run on autopilot that is running your life - until now.

Here's what you are going to do:

• Stay conscious and tune into any discomfort that comes up - those twinges, those compulsions, those "have to haves," - especially if they are driven by insecurity, a sense of not enough or not lovable/valuable, and are in someway grippy, clingy, or keeping you stuck in the past.
• Practice grounding your body and then from that stable grounding cord, expanding through your heart center, seeing your heart flame grow bigger and brighter until it fills your entire aura and beyond, so that you are completely filled with the essence of "you." Root down, strengthen through your core to support your frame, fill up your solar plexus with bright sunshine and then let your heart expand as your collar bones spread, your shoulders roll up and slide back and down, your throat chakra opens, and the top of your head grows up towards source as the 3rd eye and crown open. Everything you need is right here within you in the present moment. You are held by the earth below, connected to and guided by source above. This is your vertical alignment, your very own cord. You do not need to grasp around horizontally.
• Sweep out the old to make room for the new in every realm and dimension - it's all energy. You can get things started on the physical plane by making a ritual of removing from your space everything that is no longer in alignment and not supportive of where you want to go. Be ruthless! You can do the same with email contacts, phone contacts, and even photos on your phone and old documents. Start with a drawer or your car or one closet and go from there.
• Pattern interrupt every time that same old fear or feeling comes up - go back to the above three bullets. Take a break. Change your surroundings. Listen to music and move. Go outside for a walk. Reset your body and mind and then open back up to the new. Just keep working the shift.
