FULL BLUE MOON CANDLE RITUAL IN SCORPIO

This Full Blue Moon on May 18th will be in Scorpio opposite Mercury. What this means is that most of us will be more self-centered and overly rational in our thinking which could lead to disagreements and making irrational choices without any foundation. The moon will also be in connection with the Sun and the planet Sedna and a dishonorable star Algol will bring memories that are painful to us and the feeling of things we have lost in our life that may make us feel ill. We might even have fits of behavior.

On an environmental level, it could bring more violent earthquakes or even volcanic eruptions on the planet as well. We will not only feel more aggressive but will have a victimization attitude which may not be merited. Having said all this we can reverse it through meditation and positive thinking and by trying to feel more empathetic with the circumstances and the people around us. When you do so, it will help you dissipate any negative attitude that you have in relationships that are causing disharmony. Overall one of the reasons this is all happening is because Pluto will be in retrograde until October 2nd which causes a lot of emotional distress and can affect us both personally and politically. When Pluto is in retrograde it also can cause more deaths than usual. (It’s as if the grim reaper is having a two for the price of one sale!) We may see some governments being overthrown and we may even have more dramatics in our own government. It would be nice if everyone in Washington, DC would take time out to meditate.

LIGHT all around you! Mano ;-)

BEST DAYS TO LIGHT YOUR CANDLES

MAY 17TH, 18TH & 19TH
THE STRONGEST DAY IS APRIL 18TH
The moon will be in Void of Course during the full moon from 2:11PM to 6:21 PM PST. It is like a mini Mercury in Retrograde and things are just more haphazard so it would be advisable not to light candles during that time frame.

MY PICKS

BLUE

Blue, for harmony. As you light the candle visualize what you want to see in harmony.

YELLOW

Yellow, for protection. Visualize yourself in a yellow light so nobody can wish you harm.

BROWN

Brown to make you stronger and make you more grounded with the earth. Visualize your feet being grounded with the earth so you can stand taller and stronger.

PURPLE OR LILAC

Purple or lilac for our psychic abilities and to feel more empathetic. Visualize that you are using the best of your intuition and always making the best and right decisions.

GREEN

Green for love. Think of your loved ones when you are lighting the candle and send empathetic energy to them so you both will understand each other on a deeper level of your intuition and always making the best and right decisions.
