New Moon in Aries - Confidence, Passion & Questions to Self 🐏 ♈

 

New Moon in Aries ♈is the first New moon in dominant fire element for the year. That’s why this moon is especially amazing for Manifesting what you want in your life, for building strength and confidence. 🌙

New Moon in Aries is the time to ignite and activate your Fire energy (which happen only 3 times a year, in each Fire new moon!).

This is one of your opportunities for change, transformation and moving forward without delay.

Aries has dominant fire energy, as they are cardinal sign. (The same as Libra is dominant Air energy). Fire is the most active and powerful element to work for inner and outer transformation, and for manifesting your desires. This is also energy of NEW beginning, in all spheres of life – but especially good for work, carrier, family and any creative projects.  ♈

     In this new moon, we are invited to activate our Yang positive qualities: willpower, confidence, self believe, resilience, motivation, fearlessness, determination. All these are Aries good qualities. We also need to set healthy boundaries with others, and let go of people and situations that no longer serve us.

Before we ask for anything in the material world, we need to acquire these qualities. At this time you can also invoke the power of your Totem animal. (Do you know what is your Totem/ guardian animal?). make short meditation and ask your animal to appear, so you will know it. Work with your totem guide for more strength and fearlessness in your life.

Remember: Just wanting to have something without to do what is required on your side, is like wanting to grow fruits, without planting the seed. 

💎

At this time, you can work with crystals to support your creative energy, motivation and keep you close to nature. These can be red and some black crystals: red jasper, garnet, black obsidian, strawberry quartz. They will keep you connected to the present moment and give you courage to go through any challenges. You can also work on your Root chakra, and Earth star chakra with them.

For all fire signs I also recommend using tigers eye at this time.

 ⭐Every New moon is good to ask questions to yourself and journal. You can write these questions in your diary:

 

🌙     What areas in my life need to change?

🌙    What new project I want to begin?

🌙    Do I feel enough confident in myself?

🌙     Do I have enough willpower?

🌙       What do I need to change about my work and environment?

🌙      What is something that I`m proud of in my life now?

Take time to observe and think on these questions. Write down the answers, being totally honest with yourself. You will be surprised what interesting answers may appear in your mind, when you are focused on these questions.

This new moon in Aries gives you amazing new opportunities to begin, so you can try to make the New moon ritual and meditation – follow the next article. >>

Love tree & Lovers - III

[ Passion, Romantic time ]

   Passion – another aspect of love-relationships, that cant go without. We have all and understanding, tolerance, honesty, sharing moments …but something is missing. If passion – and physical attraction is not there –then we can be just good friends (maybe soul-mates) but not love-mates. Love is designed to give humanity inheritance, offspring. We need the inner impulses of passion and desire for another in order to feel complete. The truth is –perfect love-tree is very rarely to be found and grown. Passions often are expressed and directed in wrong way, many relationships fail or are without basis, due to different fears, judgments, low self-esteem, unknowing. Fear to be left “alone” is sadly among the most common. Even if you have intimate life with your love-mate – but you don’t enjoy it, unlike your partner – this will make a big imbalance in your relationship. The fear to lose him will make you to hide the truth about your feelings. You wont be able to overcome that, but one day the whole relation will fall apart. Suddenly and fast.

    Passions are not very common cause for relationships failure…but: Actually we cant be sure of that. The problem is, too many people wouldn’t reveal the real cause of their damaged relationships. Specially about social tabus and stigmas like passion and intimate life of the partners. Many couples do not want to admit such problem even in front of themselves, what about in public. Sexuality and sexual relations still have long way to go to be understood, as now they are in very low, primitive levels, pressed from social criteria.

No matter of that – if you have passion, attraction and sexual desire to your partner most probably you`ll be able to continue building your relationship. (even if you don’t have a basis) Sadly without basis, and without the first triad I mentioned –will be too ugly, crippled, deformed relationship, which (take care of that) will not be able to continue for long if one of the partners is on the spiritual way. Without basic qualities required to maintain the purity of human feelings –just the physical attraction is really equal to brutality or violence. It ll be diminished to the level of animal instincts. Even so – most of people practicing this kind of relationship only by attraction – exist, out of spiritual striving; they need mostly comfort, safety and joy in life in their own way. With them the attachment on primitive level will exist, but nothing more.

 ~  Romantic moments sharing ~

    The lovely rose of romantic moments can be seen everywhere in the true love-mates. They love being together, holding hands, looking to each others faces, being close, feeling the touch of another, just being silent together, caressing their hairs and hands…Much can be said, mostly in poetry you can feel the best of the love-spring. If romantic moments and simple joy of togetherness is plenty with young people and first love – sadly its not so by grown and adult people. The second seem to “have forgotten” the charm and innocence of the first love thrills, they are like thick –skin, their feelings become more “wise” and not easy to go with the flow. Specially after so much bitterness collected in their hearts. Who can blame them? Its wonderful and amazing to see couples who still maintain the love-flame in older ages and feel so attached. They are example of well grown love tree with blooms and fruits.

The fruits of the love-tree are: unconditional love, joy, being thankful and content with what you have. Give love and you`ll receive three times more. That’s the rule. Such couples are really happy. But for that you need to have all available elements daily in your life. To water daily yur tree, to put it in a sun-light, to care of it, clean it from leaves, change the soil, have fresh air in the home. All of that factors together will make him grow and thrive.

Romantic moments if not the root are the water and fertilizer for the relationship; without them it wont survive long, and will be in stage of “dying”.

Love tree & Lovers - II

   The next amazing triad of the love-tree belongs to: faithfulness – forgiveness – passion. These qualities are from higher order –forming the branches and blossoms of the tree. They all are most important for growing exactly the love-sort of tree, and not another.

   Faithfulness – everyone knows what it is, but how many have it really in their heart? Faithfulness is not given, but learn from life and love lessons. It`s closely related to qualities as: honesty, loyalty, honor, respect, faith, authenticity, devotion. To be faithful to someone means to be strong and stable in your devotion to him, in your personal values, and put him always in first place (in front of other people and situations). It means also –to eliminate negative emotions, thoughts and pitfall situations – that are hiding behind every corner in relationship – and say to them “Go away”. Be confident and strong in your feeling so you can provide your partner safety that he needs. Faithfulness builds the trust with time. Even so trust as a feeling don’t come from the loyalty only – its learn and grown inside of your heart from young age. If you have faith in yourself and your own qualities – you can be also faithful, or have faithfulness of your partner. Other qualities, that are much neglected in today society – respect and honor (but not in Islamic style honor!) – are very important for growing the love tree. Respect and honor for your love mate –means you cant have any thought of betrayal or dishonesty, because you know this will hurt him, and put him down. For that you should first respect and honor your own self. People without these qualities cant be faithful.

    Forgiveness-  this is one aspect of the relationship communion, that is hardest to achieve. Just by words anyone knows what forgiveness means and that we “have to be forgiving”. But in reality this quality is not well manifested. This comes from the inability of humans to love “unconditionally”. They always put their selfish ideas and masks, specially in love relations. They are not empathetic to others –means its hard for them to be really forgiving. Forgiveness comes together with qualities like: compassion, understanding, tolerant, hopeful, feel the way other is feeling, touching the heart of another. Moreover forgiveness comes with a doze of sacrifice. Example: a mother always will forgive her naughty child, if he broke an expensive crystal vase by mistake! A mother will be nervous, but will  forgive the child for his bad marks in the school. Moreover – mother will even forgive and defend her criminal son who made an explicit crime (which cases are many to be found around !). This is example of unconditional love. Yes, you will say –here we speak about another kind of love – between man and woman; exactly that`s why I said – the forgiveness is not easy to be achieved, in any case of betrayal. This is not your mothers heart. But if you reached to the higher spiritual vibration, if you let your heart to be open and flowing –you ll have also forgiveness as one of the highest principles. Why? Here is the simple answer! All is written before us, and nothing is new in the universe. Should I be forgiving for another? Why? If I found my partners betrayal I can condemn her and our relation will fall apart. About the end or continuing of your relationship in this case –everyone is free to decide what to do, as everyone is in unique situation –only he knows what to do.

   But no matter of falling apart, forgiveness will make your heart out of pain, out of negative feelings like anger, hatred, jealousy, depression. This is the healing potion for your heart and mind! I`ll answer here the question why. Forgive and you`ll be forgiven –is the short answer. The next step is forgive and Let go. By letting go of sad events – you ll make space in your heart for divine energy. Love and you`ll be loved –in divine way. As we said forgiveness comes from unconditional love. Your heart should be open, as well as your Mind. See other as you see yourself. This is the way. (New Testament, John (8:7) tells the story of Jesus, saving one fallen woman from death by stoning. Jesus said: “He who is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her”. This is showing amazing courage, love, strength in heart of Jeshua to save the life of a poor and sinful woman. Yes, moreover she was not his relative, or close to him; this was unknown woman, fallen in trap of sin. Only a strong, compassionate heart can defend such people. (until today it is the same).

Reaction of Jesus in these ancient times are now unknown and not discussed, even disliked from many Muslim groups, who still participate the stoning punishment (Iran, Saudi Arabia) or beheading punishment. This is a clear sign of barbaric society, not understanding or following any human values –let alone love and compassion. Killing and violence are best values for them. (I speak about groups and not of all Muslims here, some may not identify with these killing laws, but still they are fact in Sharia).

   I return back to the topic of forgiveness, about Sharia I`ll write in separate text. Jesus shows in deeds and words how to be forgiving, and what is that mean. Forgiveness is opposite of violence, corruption, destruction, judgment, fear. Forgiveness means – strength, courage, confidence in once abilities, love, peace, faith. That’s why is one of the highest principles in love-trees.

    I want to explain now clearly what is forgiveness and how we make acts of forgiveness. Some people may think forgiveness is stupidity, and equal to “let someone who betray our trust and love, to do it many times again without consequences for him, and hiding our sadness". That’s simply wrong. When you forgive someone, just you by yourself can decide if you want to remove the love tree – if its wilted, or to broke your relationship, or to give your lover second chance. The second chance is always something good, but only if you have forgiveness in your heart. If you cant reach to this stage –that means you have to separate. Forgiveness means to accept the person and situation as it is, without holding negative feelings and judgment to it. The best way is to turn to yourself in the mirror – the same as Jesus did and ask your reflection: am I free from sins and do I have the right to cast a stone now? If you feel you are free and able to throw stones - do as you like; remember that – if you judge, you`ll be judged. Many examples show that.

To let flower of forgiveness bloom inside you –means you are cleansing yourself from all bad memories and negative emotions that will stop your own spiritual way. And something more. If not you, who done infidelity and betrayal, why should you be affected and worried for deeds of others? Is it not better for you to feel, that actually your partner, who is guilty, is aware of that and suffers much more than you? is it not better to find out the real causes for that and why this happened? When you search well, you`ll find that in one relationship, never only one person has the whole blame for an event. Always two parts are involved. If you cant forgive –then also you wont forgive yourself. That ll lead to many more chain – consequences and repeated events in your life.

    Forgive and forget. What means to forget? Again you are wrong if you think forget means to really erase all memories of something happened. No, it would be hard to do that –you are not a record. You have the memory always with you, and that’s how you have basis for learning and growing. Forget means to not cling to the sad events from the past, and transfer them into the future by not letting them go. Forget means to not hold negative feelings and judgment to these events and people, to let them be on their way in free heart, to let them continue their development. You cant do more than this. You are to blame also – so turn to yourself, think and realize your mistake. Turn to the partner and see what qualities you should avoid, that you find in him. And have an honest conversation with him, talk, ask, understand! What leads him on this way? You`ll soon find out.

Whatever the reason is, human is complicated creature with having to handle both physical impulses and spiritual energies. So be merciful to humans, still not knowing how to fly!
