October Full Moon

Well the October Full Moon has been full on!

First here is my full moon dream board as encouraged by Jamie Ridler:

So - luxury was the theme, and I have been quite surprised by what I experience as luxury. It turns out I'm not a diamonds and pearls girl at all! Lying on the grass in the sunshine is, a comfortable bed - of course - with a pretty cover and a good book, fabric and textiles, patterns, blue skies, stone circles and honey - this is the stuff that I'm made of. I also had to add in ceramics which are a secret favourite, especially stoneware, writing made it in too, poetry, and straw bales - a strange choice maybe, but I spent many happy days playing amongst them as a child - we used to build houses in the barn from the "square" bales - an early expression of creativity - next stop Grand Designs (for those you in the US / Canada - this is a fab UK tv programme that follows folk building their own (real!) houses). I also love the luxury of spiritual unfurling, symbolised by the unfurling fern.

That brings me neatly onto my next full on experience - two days of workshop with Australian Bush Essence hero Ian White - here's the link to the site ABFE booked through Universal Essences. This was a mind blowing introduction to the Light Frequency Essences - for those of you who don't know about them, they're a kind of step on from flower remedies - maybe you've come across FES or know the Bach Flower Remedies. Where as Bach, FES, and the Australian Bush Flower Essences mostly deal with the emotional level, these essences work on the global / higher self - some of them are big essences -  but don't let that put you off - sometimes the world needs big leaps. The essences help you connect with the lands they were made in, and also allow huge shifts in your own spiritual direction. The last couple of days (illuminated by the beautiful full moon) have taken me energetically from Antarctica to China, to Madagascar to Mount Pinatuba. Tears have lead to new certainties, new directions, new frequencies  - I can't wait to see where they will lead!
