The first thing about June that is exciting is that it begins on the heels of the New Moon Gemini. Soft, loving, Feminine … full of beautiful gifts and new beginnings. Overall, June is a quieter month than May (thank Goddess), as we also disentangled ourselves from that Eclipse portal that started with the New Moon Solar Eclipse in Taurus, and the Full Moon Lunar Eclipse in Scorpio.

Mercury has been in retrograde since May 10th … want to just think for a moment about all that’s gone on with you since then? It’s been a lot of deep, soul work and now, with lightness in our hearts, we can take an adventure, build connection, and love a bit deeper. (hint: start with Self first.)

Aries New Moon on 3.31.2022 at 11:24pm; stellium in Aries and Aquarius, Saturn sitting in between Mars and Venus, and Jupiter inching closer to Neptune in Pisces. The perfect storm for change.

A gorgeous Full Moon illuminates the sky on March 18, 2022, 12:17am pst, at 27 degrees Virgo. This Full Moon happens days before the Spring Equinox, the turn of the season. It’s all about letting go, finishing a chapter of your life, and culminations of projects. It’s also about transitions, recalibrations, and complete liberation from the past so you can truly step into a new life.

The New Moon happens March 2, 2022, at 9:35ampst, at 12 degrees Pisces, the 6th and final time the New Moon will land on 12 degrees this year. This is a time of endings, and lovely new beginnings. We’ve been through a tough time yes, but we are somewhat on the other side.

The Full Moon Leo illuminates its glorious, loving, light on 2.16 at 8:56am pst. This Full Moon is FULL and pregnant with all the qualities of LEO: LOVE ~ PASSION ~ LOYALTY ~ LEADERSHIP ~ GENEROSITY ~ JOY ~ ENTHUSIASM. Leo is the King of the jungle and loves to ROAR when it’s time to creatively express the deepest bits of the heart.

The New Moon Aquarius happens on the bridge between two months:

January 31, 2022, at 9:46pm pst, and February 1, 2022, at 1:46am est. Keep in mind, this **New Moon happens just after Venus goes direct, and just before Mercury stations direct.** Lots has been up for review, swirling around, realigning, leaving, and arriving. Aquarius is about the bigger picture, humanitarian causes, and fast-moving changes. **Once Mercury goes direct on February 3rd, all the planets will be direct, which means … speed. **

On January 18th, 2022, the North Node entered Taurus and the South Node entered Scorpio.

This happened just AFTER the Full Moon Cancer and on the same day that Uranus went direct.

The Nodes represent our karma and our destiny. They represent where we have been, and where we are going. The South Node in particular, is about past lives and karmic activity. So, what we’ve done to get “here” and what lessons we have learned along the way. The North Node is connected to our future and offers us opportunities to shift our karma and re-write our life story.

On January 17, 2022, at 3:48pm pst, the Full Moon lights up the sky in the sign of Cancer at 27 degrees. (In numerology, the number nine (9), is an auspicious sign of new beginnings, and powerful endings). Before that though, on January 14, 2022, Mercury goes into retrograde, in the sign of Aquarius at 10 degrees. (the number of instant manifestation.)

Admittedly we are feeling the reverberations of Venus Retrograde and Saturn/Uranus square. Good – we “should” …

• Pay attention

• Go inward

• Re-evaluate

• Visualize our life

On March 19, 2021 at 8:50pm pst, we experience the Spring Equinox in the Northern Hemisphere. Equinox defined is the time or date, at which the Sun crosses the celestial equator, when day and night are of approximately equal length. This is a time of renewal, when we begin to come out of the dark and into the light.

And wow, it’s been dark hasn’t it?

But darkness is necessary. Without it, how do we have the time/space to truly do inward? Yogis say that the inward journey is paramount to understand and remember who we truly are

What yoga has taught me is that we had no control to begin with.

And that’s when I remember. I remember that I am the Co-creator of my life. I have a birth chart that outlines what my life could be, I have a connection to my breath, and I have a tether to the Divine, in every second. When I lose that breath, or my Divine connection, I wander off my path. I go into reaction and fear. I act from that reptilian brain and make decisions that maybe aren’t quite the best.

….”Cried hard into my pillow so my youngest wouldn’t hear me. Sat in the tub or at the bottom of my shower thinking, WTF now? Is this shit for real? This is truth; for those of you who know me, you know I am as tough as nails. A warrior you call me. Uh huh … and 2020 kicked my ass to the curb. I lost a lot and wanted to reach out for support, but I didn’t. Everyone else had their stories; and I knew this was an old karmic loop, coming back to be reckoned with.

And so I sat, on my mat. I kept practicing, and breathing. I sat at the ocean and held my daughters in prayer. All the things we learn in this practice of yoga, it’s not the asana, it’s in all the other things. It’s the subtly of all of life. And every time we step on our mat, we begin again.”

Remember the foundation you built. We’ve all grown so much. I’m not sure about you, but my mojo fell flat more than once last year. I felt depleted. Like I had been bullied to my core, unable to take it anymore. I’ve been there before, only with less tools. I got up, dusted myself off, and I kept going.

This New Moon falls at 26 degrees Leo, and is snuggled up against Mercury, the thinker. And just in perfect timing, Uranus goes retrograde. The planet of unexpected miracles, breakthroughs, and change, joins Pluto (transformation), Saturn (systems, structures, and karma), Jupiter (wisdom, knowledge, discovery, expansion), Chiron (healing), and Neptune (illusion dreams).

It’s been a bit off hasn’t it - these past several months. I mean, remember when we were actually counting the days we’d been quarantined? And how we scoffed at Florida for opening their beaches and then California opened ours and there we were, trying to decide if we needed to wear a mask at the beach or not.

And remember when we thought we were actually going to Bali in May?And Santa Cruz in June?Hell, I was planning a retreat to Patagonia for the eclipse in December … but no more.

On Saturday, July 4th, we will experience a Full Moon Lunar Eclipse in the sign of Capricorn at 9:44pm PST. This is the final of the Capricorn/Cancer eclipse cycle with signifies an end of an era, and the beginning of a new one.

We’ve been taking in the story of Capricorn/Cancer for about 18 months now and it’s finally coming to a close. The structures we have lived by that no longer make sense are being dismantled. As a whole, and also as individuals, we are experiencing F R E E D O M. I know it doesn’t look like it … but if you think about it, it makes total sense. Before we can experience true freedom, we’ve got to witness what’s truly holding us back.

If you don’t have time to read this … you can

Sunday … LIVESTREAM Yoga - my kinda church

But for now … we rest. We pause. We re-evaluate. We come home to our hearts. Everything outside of you is telling you that we are doomed. That you must go and get, and hoard and keep going. That’s not truth – it’s illusion. Take care of you yes … take care of your family, your necessities, your health, your love… yes. But do not rush into anything as if there won’t be enough later. There will … there is ... and there always will be.

Pachamama is asking us to pause and we’d better listen.
Ride the wave.
Let go of your ideals ~ expectations ~ frustrations ~
Heal … just heal.

I have my finger and heart on the pulse in the yoga community in San Francisco. SF was my first real yoga home, where I learned to use my voice. SF holds the teachings of my heart and it holds one of my tribes that I love so very much. My teachers, Janet Stone and Mark Morford at Yoga Tree Castro Temple, are leaders of this thing we call yoga and they are ahead of the curve and the effect of COVID-19 we are only beginning to feel here in Encintias/Cardiff, aka “the bubble”.
