The Moon’s Cycle is a Creativity Cycle

The Moon’s Cycle

August 17, 2001

Welcome to The Wisdom Teachings with Amber Flynn! This is a “free” weekly emailer. My hope is that this weekly wisdom emailer will give you an ongoing understanding of the art and science of Astrology and perhaps enlighten you on a weekly basis about the deeper mysteries and wisdom teachings in life.

Perhaps the most crucial cycle to consider of the many Astrological cycles is the cycle of the Moon. The Moon’s Cycle is a Wisdom Teaching that is understood as a Creation Cycle. Following the Moon, the cycle helps you stay in the natural creative flow with the universe. Each particular phase of the Moon allows you to understand what part of the creative process is up and what you need to stay attentive to that will help you to reach your goals.

A Moon Cycle consists of eight phases. The following four are the most important to follow. First, the New Moon starts tomorrow!

*New Moon (August 18th) in the Astrological sign of Leo!

The first part of creation! A new start, new beginnings. What do you want? Could you write it down? Initiate new contacts, and start a new adventure.

Develop a clear plan.

*First Quarter Moon (August 25th) in the Astrological sign of Sagittarius. Act upon your desired creation! The universe will act as well, creating circumstances that help you reach your goals! Could you do it now?

*Full Moon (September 2nd) in the Astrological sign of Pisces. Power time. Time for significant realizations about your creations. Use this time to meditate, go inward and expect an inner revelation about what you have created. You are a creative being. Rejoice in this!

*Last Quarter Moon (September 10th) in the Astrological sign of Gemini. Time to let go. Time to make a change and release whatever you’ve been holding back around your creation. Complete old projects, terminate and end any strategy that is not working for you.

“Quote For The Week”

 “The Moon came to me last night

with a sweet question.

She said,

The sun has been my faithful lover

for millions of years.

Whenever I offer my body to him

Brilliant light pours from his heart.

Thousands then notice my happiness

and delight in pointing

toward my beauty.

Hafiz,

is it true that

our destiny is to turn

into light itself?

And I replied,

Dear Moon,

Beloved Moon,

now that your love is maturing

we need to sit together

close like this more often

So that I might be here with you

as you become

who you really are.

~ Hafiz
