The New Moon in Aquarius is on Feb 9th at 3:59 pm MST. This represents the end of one lunar cycle and the beginning of the next.

Astrologically, both the Sun and Moon are conjunct in Aquarius at about 20 degrees. The new moon is a time for new beginnings so it’s time to start a new chapter and see things from new perspectives as you set your intentions for the month to come.

Aquarius is unconventional and focuses on grand humanitarian ideas, sparking fresh perspectives and often challenging traditional methods of doing things.

Aquarius is very individualistic. This the new moon in Aquarius offers you the chance for innovation and change, both in your own life and the world at large. Expect changes for the better as you release the old and bring in the new, with transformative opportunities for growth as you break free from limitations and manifest your true potential.

It’s time to really look at your deepest desires and start embracing those new goals and dreams to propel you forward into success and fulfillment with the recognition that we are all in this together.

Tonight (Feb 3rd) is our Imbolc ceremony at 5 pm MST on Facebook Live. Tune in or watch the replay.

The January Full Moon is on Jan. 25th, 2024 at 10:54 AM MST (AZ time). This is known as the Wolf Moon because this is the time of year when wolves howl due to several reasons, including hunger, defining territory, finding other pack members to name a few.

We have a Full Moon when the Sun and Moon are astrologically in opposition. At this Full Moon, the Sun is in Aquarius and the Moon is in Leo. This is a time of compassion, generosity, empowerment, enthusiasm, and creativity.

It’s also a time to make significant announcements and make changes that bring more joy, passion, and happiness into you life in many ways, as you strive for a better future. The support of other like-minded people give impetus to new beginnings. Inner guidance reveals ways to come more fully into your power.

Please note that our Imbolc ceremony will be on Druids of the Light Facebook Live on February 3rd at 5:00 PM MST.

This New Moon period begins on Thursday, January 11th, 2024 at 4:57 am MST.

This represents the end of one lunar cycle and the beginning of another. Astrologically, both the Sun and Moon are in Capricorn. This is a time of new beginnings and a time to set your intentions for the month to come. Capricorn is resourceful, disciplined, ambitious, and prudent, all of which will assist you in achieving your intentions. This is the perfect opportunity to make decisive moves.

Push yourself out of your comfort zone and start building towards a spiritually fulfilling future. This may call for patience, hard work, and discipline, but it will be worth it. Capricorn is very rational and practical and will help you to focus on long term goals. Sometimes reasonable boundaries and rules will release worry so you can focus on what matters.

Save the date: Imbolc will be on February 3rd at 5:00 pm on Facebook Live on the Druids of the Light Facebook page. Replay will be available.

So, after a month, I realized I haven’t been getting enough response to have classes, so I decided to postpone classes for a few months. I am thinking I will try again in the spring. But it would be helpful to see what kind of interest there is in attending these classes. So, if you ARE interested, let me know, and I will be sure to contact you with details. 

I will most likely be doing these classes online, and people can join in the class online, or purchase the replay after the fact. 

Just so you know, we are following the Study Program which is outlined on the website. 

We will be doing classes in sections…. so, for example, the first section is BASIC information, and that will take 5 weeks. After that, each topic will be covered in classes. I expect the classes to last 60-90 minutes each week.

The idea is that you can pay $20 per class, or you can get a section for $75 each, or the whole class portion of the initiate’s program for $275. You get to choose which level you would like.*

*Please note that these prices may change, but registering any time before we start will ensure these prices for are locked in for you when the time comes. 

Here are the details for the Initiate’s program:

The December Full Moon is on December 26, 2023 at 5:33 pm MST.

This is known as the Cold Moon due to colder weather and the desire to hunker down in the warmth of your home with family and friends. It also related to the longest night of Solstice.

This full moon has the Moon in Cancer and the Sun in Capricorn. Cancer tends to be emotional and sensitive so do watch your feelings. It’s a good time to compassionate to others as well as yourself. Capricorn, on the other hand, is responsible and productive, so this will help you to get things done often for the benefit of others.

Watch the video to learn more.

Make a note that our Winter Solstice ceremony was on December 16^th on Facebook Live and the video is still available to watch both on Facebook and YouTube. As for classes, we haven’t had much interest, so we are pausing it for now, and maybe will resume with something in the Spring.

Blessings of this Full Moon to you!

The New Moon is in Sagittarius on December 12, 2023 and is exact at 4:32 pm MST.

The New Moon is traditionally a time of new beginnings so this is a great time to start a new chapter and see things from different perspectives as you set your intentions for the month to come. This New Moon is about optimism, expansive viewpoints, and maybe even some travel as you enthusiastically explore new ideas.

This New Moon has a strong aspect to Jupiter, the ruler of Sagittarius, and it is currently in Taurus which may help you dream big and yet ground some of those new ideas. Mars is also conjunct the moon which may make you a bit impulsive, so that groundedness may help you quite a bit.

Also, as a reminder, our weekly Druid classes have resumed and we meet on Tuesday nights from 6:00-7:30 pm at Crystal Magic Psychic Center. These classes are also available online. If you are interested in attending, please leave a message here on the website, or a Facebook message for Druids of the Light.

Finally, a reminder that our Winter Solstice Celebration is online on Facebook Live on December 16th at 4:00 pm. Replays will be available.

We are FINALLY resuming our weekly Druid classes as of November 28th, 2023, They will be every Tuesday evening from 6:00-7:30 pm at Crystal Magic Psychic Center in Sedona.

This is a study group dedicated to a deep and rich understanding of the Druid Path. It is open to the public and those new or experienced with earth-based studies. We will cover both beginning to advanced topics from various sources, including the history of the Druids based on mythology and archeological discoveries, the cycles of Nature and how to apply them in our own lives, and some of the deeper sacred practices and ceremonies that are still applicable today.

The address is 2970 W SR 89A, across from the Green Tree Inn, and next to the Crystal Magic store.

We are also hoping to make it possible for people to attend online via Zoom. We will be doing a test run for the first class, so if you are interested, let us know and we will let you know what next steps will be to attend remotely.

Please let us know if you have any questions.

This Full Beaver Moon begins early Monday morning, November 27th at 2:16 am MST (AZ time). This is known as the Full Beaver Moon as beavers are plentiful and preparing for the cold Winter to come.

Astrologically, the Sun and Moon are in opposition at a Full Moon and at this time, the moon is in Gemini and the Sun is in Sagittarius. This lends itself to communication and spontaneity. However, there is also a restlessness that needs to be considered. Also the Sagittarius Sun Carrie’s the potential for exaggeration and embellishment, so be as diplomatic as possible when dealing with others.

This New Moon is exact on November 13th at 2:27 am MST (AZ time), and both the Sun and Moon are exactly conjunct at that time in the sign of Scorpio.

The New Moon is a time of new beginnings. So it’s a great time to set intentions by journaling, meditating, and visualizing the future. The New Moon in Scorpio is emotional and introspective so do take time to delve into your feelings as deep as possible. It’s a great time to do your inner work and clear out old wounds, fears, and triggers. Scorpio is the sign of transformation and rebirth so it’s a great time to make some deep changes in your life.

Mars is conjunct this New Moon less than an hour after it is exact, and that may provide you with a strong drive to do what you need to do to move forward.

Watch the video to learn more.

Please note. We are resuming The Path of the Druid weekly classes on November 28th, from 6:00-7:30 pm at Crystal Magic Psychic Center.

I am still trying to find a platform to offer these classes online also, but I am not very techie, so if anyone has any suggestions to a solution that is affordable and easy, I would love to hear them!

Contact me to learn more about the classes or about Druids of the Light.
