With a Sagittarius Strawberry Full Moon coming up on the third, I’m feeling the extra vibes of truth, abundance, and optimism that it carries. This feels amplified, personally, with my natal Sagittarius Moon. I hope this Moon will illuminate a little more of these for each of you as well.

I’ve been spending a lot of time in the garden and hiking, with my crystals and fur babies, as well as even got in a little creative painting side project – all of which always nurture my soul and helps keep things balanced in a wild and wobbly world. Dave and I also spread 500,000 mountain wildflower seeds in the forest where our tree friends were taken away so that we can help with renewal.

And speaking of renewal, here’s two friends I spent time with in the garden that brought a smile to my heart. Alongside their energy of regeneration and transformation, their appearance also messaged to me the key elements I’ve been focusing on.

I didn’t intend to, but I also just happened to pick up the very only and last strawberry plant at the store this past week – a Sequoia Strawberry. How perfect for this Strawberry Full Moon. I have a feeling one magickal rabbit had a hand in directing me to it and bringing it home.

Astrid is excited for garden fresh strawberry surprises.

It’s been exceptionally pretty outdoors, as we’ve been having ongoing afternoon thunderstorms that bring gorgeous clouds and create dramatic skies along with bringing some sprinkles, short-lived downpours, and cooling to the always-prevalent alpine rays of sunshine. It’s reminded me of our time in the Rockies while living in our Magick Bus during RV days. Without fail, every afternoon there would be thunderstorms and rain at the same time. No trace before or after, though.

A lot is in motion and I continue to mostly stay in my own little world, peeking out like a turtle when aligned and deepening in gratitude by the day.

That’s a quick little update for now. I’ll share more on things like where I’m floating along the frequency streams, garden, faery, and crystal energy upcoming, but today I was guided to share an old blog post that weaves in with this Moon’s energy.

Rather than reblog an old August 2014 post, I decided to copy and paste it into today’s so that I could link things and add to it easier. It was so old I didn’t even remember writing it! LOL!

It takes me back to echoes of Egypt, my days of intense painting, processing, and integrating, as well as reminders of the sacred tattoos I wear on my Spiritual Skin. It also reminds me of days when my personal work was detailed, complex, involved, long, and hard. Thank goodness those days are behind me.

The reason I was guided to share the post is because of learning how it ties into the upcoming Full Moon. My faery twin sister, Laura (who also just turned 50), and I were recently texting and I learned about her upcoming Full Moon forecast and how a few themes had popped out for it that both of us separately had received in our own ways. We didn’t get into any details at all, so I have no idea what her video will share. I only read the snippet from her recent blog post, below, on this Full Moon.

I am excited to see her video and interested about the elements woven synchronously between us and the collective, however, it will post tomorrow. As soon as it goes live, I’ll either embed it in this post or link it in the comments below for you. So, please check back then.

UPDATE: Here you go!

For now, Laura shares this in her June 2023 Forecast:

June 3 Full Moon in Sagittarius at 11:42 p.m. Eastern US time. The Sabian Symbol for this Full Moon is: (SAGITTARIUS 14°): THE GREAT PYRAMID AND THE SPHINX. KEYNOTE: The enduring power of occult knowledge and of its quasi-divine Custodians, “Seed-men” of a previous cycle of existence. … THE POWER OF SPIRITUAL ANCESTRY. Arriving with Jupiter still in tight orb with the North Node and Venus still trining mystical Neptune, this Jupiter-ruled Full Moon reaches far into the past to remind us who we are and why we came here. Allow any fixed beliefs to open and expand.

The energy she is talking about (including other astrological aspects for the month of June) is EXACTLY what my painting, Earth (shown below, from my In Lak’ech series), holds in relation to Sagittarius balancing energies I worked into the painting AND OF COURSE Egyptian key codes, including Venus, The Hathors and SO many other key Egyptian figures – one of which is Osiris, whom I speak about in the old post I’m pasting in below.

Egyptian energy has been on another recurring high for me – I’ve actually been wearing my Egyptian harem pants I got in Hawaii nearly every day while home or in the garden and have had some conversations with my parents around our time together in the King’s Chamber. Our cat, Boojum, has strong Egyptian connections as well to our time together there and he’s been a huge part of daily focuses for me while I’ve been helping to rewire him – drawing upon that time period for ways to do that. Many of my crystals have also been activating things from then, but also from many other ancient timelines and civilizations on and off Earth.

I also happen to wear sacred tattoos of an Egyptian asp and Ankh on my right hand and wrist, as well as a story-rich image on the right mid area of my back that depicts Isis wrapping her wings around Osiris – this is a rendition of Susan Seddon Boulet’s painting that I always loved.

Of course my “spiritual skin” is a way of not only remembering who I am, but embodying my wholeness spanning the ages and invoking my multi-dimensionality.

But before resharing the blog post, a quick crystal update felt in order given some other tie-ins with Laura – again, I have no idea what she’ll be sharing, but only that a few shared theme words popped through our dialogue one day.

All of the crystal skulls and crystals Astrid and I recently released have connected with their heart homes except for one amazing Lemurian Seed Crystal who’s still awaiting to be seen. Thank you dearly to everyone who has found their cocreators and given them a heart home.

I updated a few photos since this one’s a hard one to capture the internal dimensions of, as well as added layers of info about Lemurian Seed Crystals at the link. You can also find general info about crystal skulls at that page for anyone interested in what they’re about, as a way to tie in an understanding of the bigger picture at work, even if it’s not your particular path to work with crystals.

I sense a WHOLE lot more upcoming to share in this realm just as soon as, and if, I get the go-ahead. Well, I guess I’ll have to receive the full story too! I still have only an inkling about what they’re up to.

But back to Laura. It’s not surprising, given our history, that we discover so many mirroring synchronicities when we touch in, but it’s still fun to see unfold. The same goes for all the rest of the synchronicities so many of us share across the collective. There’s too many wild stories that reveal our unified connection, but they sure are beautiful to hear about and experience with others.

Sometimes there’s just too many backstories to share about how the dots connect between all of those synchronicities, but for today’s post let’s just say Egypt, crystal skulls, crystals in general, and Lemurian Seed Crystals have been some of these current syncs. There will likely be more once I listen to Laura’s video since so many other posts and videos of hers and mine have revealed things we never talked about previous to sharing them.

It makes perfect sense to me why so many new crystals are being unearthed these days, how people are finding themselves drawn to work with crystal skulls who NEVER were drawn to them, and how boldly crystals are speaking like never before. And these are but one category of evolvements. There are many more things on the scene now, louder than ever, that once used to be more in the background because the collective energy hadn’t caught up with them yet.

The time is now.

Perhaps, even, the In Lak’ech series of Five – Fire, Earth, Air, Water and Spirit are finally catching up to their time and are more relevant now. If I shared the intricacies of each painting with you, it would be a book of key parts of the Earth collective’s integrative journey weaving past and future in the now. In fact, the notes, research, and processing for each painting I’ve kept in a journal. Perhaps one day it will be turned into something. More likely I’ll eventually burn it as a transmutational process and the paintings will stand on their own, or it will simply be found one day by someone it will have meaning for, when I’ve moved onto another dimension.

In any event, they were an integral part of how I remembered and how I got myself to where I am now.

The share below is a reflection of how each Moon cycle can represent our creative journey from seed to wholeness, over and over. We are boundless innovation in motion of being.

Here is the old post, The Moon & Egypt ~ A Commemoration of Wholeness:

As I was tuning in to the upcoming Full Super Moon in Aquarius on the 10th, I was also reminded of some Egyptian symbolism that I had delved into through integrative personal and collective work while taking my sacred journeys in Egypt and channeling one of the five paintings of my series, In Lak’ech – “Earth”.

Likely the Egyptian influences that have trickled in a bit recently, are stemming from the Egyptian pendant I released into the Bimini waters on our retreat week – all that has been released is circulating in new, integrative ways.

But the Moon and Egypt reminded me of something, which has symbolic significance, and so this share stems from that.

It’s not that the literal symbolism is important, but the value lies in what we can take away from these stories to integrate into our lives. Whether myth or not, all stories have symbolic messages for us to decipher and expand through.

As you read the symbolism and brief stories below, see what personal messages speak to you that might be of value.

The Moon has played a predominant role in many societies and ancient cultures throughout history. Her energy is equally powerful to that of her more overt brother, the Sun, yet she works in mysterious and magickal ways.

To the Egyptians she was a symbol of rejuvenation, cyclical renewal, fertility, and growth. The Ancient Egyptians commonly referred to the Moon and the Sun as “the two lights” and interpreted these lights as the eyes of the Sky God, Horus. The left eye representing the Moon and the right eye representing the Sun, while the cycles of the Moon also relating to Horus’ phases of life.

The most predominant myth of the Moon relates its cycles to the battle between Horus and Seth over the inheritance of Osiris. The moment of the Full Moon was equated with the adult Horus declaring his true voice and joy, in victory over Seth, as he assumes control of the sky, rejuvenated.

The Egyptian Lunar Calendar is the most consistently followed calendar throughout the Dynastic times. It determined most regional festivals for the temples and marked periods for making offerings at tombs. While Lunar energy is viewed as feminine energy by the Egyptian culture (and in general), the phases of the Moon are uniquely embodied in the story of Osiris; a deity and important Lunar God closely associated with the different faces of the Moon.

His resurrection was recognized in the Lunar cycles, his body was equated with the Moon, and his dismembered body parts represented the days of the waning Moon.

In other areas of Egypt, his entire life cycle is related to the Lunar cycle, from conception and birth, to murder, dismemberment, and resurrection. Specifically, his dismemberment is mourned during the dark period before the next New Moon, his reappearance celebrated at New Moon, and his restoration commemorated with the Full Moon.

Another God associated with the Moon is the Baboon and Ibis God, Thoth. Thoth who restores the Eye of Osiris, is the wisest of the Egyptian Gods and is known as the God of the Moon, magick, and writing. It is thought that the Ibis has a crescent shaped beak, which creates its link to the Moon. The magickal powers of Thoth were so great that the Egyptians had tales of a sacred “Book of Thoth” that if read, was believed to allow one to become the most powerful magician in the world.

Hence, the Moon has great significance and ties with the Egyptians.

The symbolism of commemorating the restoration of Osiris, the true voice of Horus, and the magick of Thoth on the Full Moon, directly mirrors our own personal journeys to wholeness.

We come into the journey of life at different phases, individual to each, looking to integrate wholeness and get in touch with our inner truths. And as we make the journey, one by one we piece together our own parts and open to a wider, more expansive experience. So that by the time we reach the Full Moon of each phase of our lives, we conclude our journey; the bringing together of those parts symbolically resembling our own restoration.

In honoring the energy of the Full Moon and the Ancient Egyptian commemoration of Osiris, we honor ourselves and the wholeness of our being, as everything is but a mirror of our experience.

The Lunar orb phases represent symbolic perfection of our Universal connection. The New Moon introduces enterprising beginnings and enhances the growth of new endeavors. It also represents the planting of physical “seeds” in the womb of time, which will come to fruition at the Full Moon – a time when the body is inhabited by the Spirit and Illumination takes place.

We have the opportunity to look at everything in life with greater depth and meaning. Everything is connected and everything is reflective for us, providing codes of life for us to interpret and activate once again.

Blessings to you for this Full Moon journey to wholeness.
