It’s the Libra Full Moon on April 12 and here at the Wise Woman School we are dancing with the colors pink and yellow to heal, honour and wave our velvet coated fists in the air to Venus, Goddess of Love and ruler of the sign of Libra which is where the Full Moon resides this month. If you can find 23 degrees of Libra in your natal birth astrology chart it will give you more clues about what this Full Moon has in store for you. If you planted you intentions at the last New Moon in Aries, ask yourself how they are coming to fruition right now.
The Libra meditation I created for this Full Moon will gently help you strengthen your self, create sacred space for healing and meditation and acknowledge any blocks you are hanging onto that can now be released with the help of Venus going direct after 6 weeks retrograde. Time to move forward as Mercury is also direct.
Spring is here (or Fall in the Southern hemisphere) and it’s time to gently so gently ground and center in your spiritual practice and your psychic know-how for we will need your energy to guide us all forward in the coming years as Neptune entered Aries on March 30, Saturn enters Aries on May 24, Pluto is in Aquarius, and Uranus enters Gemini on July 7. With all this air and fire energy we need to know where we are going, confront resentments and anger and open to love.
If you need help with any of this especially strengthening your own spiritual and psychic powers I hope you love this Full Moon Meditation I just created. If you are in my current Moon Magic eClass this meditation is part of your class. I am also here for you as a mentor and soul reader. Below you will find the Full Moon card of the month chosen from my Lefty Deck accompanied by creative prompts to get you in the mood plus Libra Zodiac Goddesses from my Zodiac Goddess Power Deck with suggestions for adorning yourself and your altar this Full Moon.

Libra Goddess Benzaitan by Kathy Crabbe from the Zodiac Goddess Power Deck
Libra Goddess ~ Benzaitan
Dragon Lover
Mating cry
White snakes hover
Beauty flies
Divine balance
In the sky
Guiding talent
Battle cry.
Benzaitan or Benten was one of the seven Japanese divinities of good luck also known as the Dragon Woman and Queen of the Sea, often appearing surrounded by a retinue of white snakes. Benzaitan brings inspiration, talent, wealth and romance to those who honor her.
I Paint Libra
The Libra Meditation got me dancing and twirling in my fringed shawl and long, silk skirt. I danced myself awake, becoming beauty, grace, lightness and perfection balancing beauty and strength.
My Libra painting was strong and sexual; squiggles and lines caressed my Libra Goddess and danced her around the world.
Embrace your Libra essence as you create and feel beauty, power and strength within. Feel the balance within and without.
Crazee Janice by Kathy Crabbe from the Lefty Oracle Deck
Lefty Oracle for the Full Moon:
Crazee Janice Dancing as Fast as She Can
Mantra: I ride the roller coaster.
Affirmation: I slow things down step-by-step.
Element: Spirit
Song
I’m dancing just to keep up.
With what?
I don’t know.
I don’t have a choice.
Or do I?
I’m dancing so hard and so fast
I can’t hear the answer,
or the question.
If only I could slow down.
If this card appears in a reading anything could happen! Things are going fast and so are you. Is it time to slow down yet? Can you manage it? Breathe…repeat. This too shall pass.
In my own life I have been on this sort of rollercoaster life ride before, especially during the early stages of menopause which also occurred during my astrological mid life transition. It’s called Uranus Opposition and it occurs for all of us around the age of forty. It was a ride I could NOT seem to get off! Crazee indeed. But I survived and even though I knew it was going to happen all I could do was to hang on. Sorry, no great advice to offer you, other than to get ready!
Creative Journal Prompt
Take a look at your life and then ask yourself if there are any areas where you feel like Janice. Write them down. Pick one and envision yourself slowing things down step-by-step. Describe. What one piece of wisdom has come to you by doing this exercise?
Expressive Body Movement Challenge
Re-enact the above exercise in a dance or other body movement that portrays your own challenges and then slow it down bit by bit.
