The March moon energies bring us the much awaited, call to spring!!  March 19th, we celebrate and rejoice….. SPRING IS ON THE WAY!!! The Sun will shine directly on the equator and there will be nearly equal amounts of day and night throughout the world. This is known as the first day of spring (vernal equinox) in the Northern Hemisphere and the first day of fall (autumnal equinox) in the Southern Hemisphere. Enjoy the March moon energy my Luna Lovers!!!

A good meditation for March Moon Energy would be ;

“what needs to go, so that I can grow?”

March’s full moon & new moon energies combined with the spring equinox, are a call to spring and I could not be happier about that!! This time period marks the time the light of day comes into balance with the dark of night. Can you feel the expectation of growth inside of you?

For the past couple of months we have been working on clearing house and addressing deep wounds, both within us and with those that surround us. It is time on this full moon, to address these things we have worked on once more. Take this time to tie up any loose ends and prepare yourself for the coming new growth. Take stock of your life and make a new plan. What needs to happen, for you to blossom into the being you want to become?

Spring Cleaning, Inside and Out

Think about this in terms of within your body, as well as life outside of your body. March’s Super Moon and New moon is the time to look back, let go and get ready to implement. What we put into motion now, is what we will become in the future!

Spring is governed by the wood element. The wood element refers to growing entities; trees, plants and the human body. This element oversees our body’s filtration systems, the liver and gallbladder. This is the time of season to nourish and feed our bodies both with exercise, cleansing and adjusting our diets.

We should be transitioning from our winter foods to diets rich in  fruits and green vegetables. While the wood element is active, it is important that we take the time to cleanse our insides and help our body to move out toxins that have been built up and stored there. Are you sluggish, finding it hard to get a move on in the mornings? Spinal issues, arthritis, eye issues, or a greenish hue about the skin are all signs that you may have a wood imbalance.

Cleansing;

There is much written about cleansing and to continue writing about it would set me on the course of writing a book, I will just encourage you to look further into it at this time. It’s a great way to aid your body in letting go of winter and to usher in spring, within the walls of your being. Remember, you cannot blossom into the new you, with the old sludge hanging out, taking up space!

As I said before, our winter diets will be giving way to our summer fare. Be on the lookout for fresh fruits and vegetables grown locally. Greens, greens, greens, you can’t go wrong with them, so start introducing more of them into your diets at this time. Great herbs to introduce into your system at this time would be; dandelion root, sassafras bark and peppermint. Check out your tea isle in the local supermarket and experiment around. And EXERCISE! I cannot stress enough as to how beneficial this is to your body. Exercise gets your lymph and circulatory systems moving and helps to move toxins out. Honestly, I find a simple little walk just gets me moving forward in all things body, mind and spirit. You don’t have to become a world class Olympian, just take a simple little walk every day. Movement. Creating energy. Going Forward.

A possible mantra for March’s moon cycle might be;

“elimination equals illumination”

In closing:

Remember to be kind to yourself as we ready ourselves for new growth. Life will be getting busy as we emerge from our winter inward time. So… during March’s full moon and new moon phases, let us take a quick look back, finish what needs to be finished and then let it go with the wind, We gotta get ready for some seed sow’n and grow’n! Sometimes it helps to howl with that wind, don’t be shy!! Let’s eliminate so we can illuminate!!!
