Tingly Love: A New Moon Flower Meditation

New Moon in Cancer Meditation Channeled by Kathy Crabbe
July 12, 2018 - 7:48 pm, Pacific Time

Rest your eyes, nose, mouth, ears, face, heart.

Breathe deeply and sink into the delicate (or bold) colors of your favorite flowers. Allow yourself to be held and caressed by their gentle petals. Smell them (or not, if you're sensitive) and feel their gentle magic light up your soul tingling all your cells.

Say thanks or give a small blessing to Mother Earth.

Now, go even deeper within to where the still, small voice inside resides and ask your question (if you have one) allowing it to bubble up naturally, like breathing. If you don't have a question then set an intention for the moonth ahead. For more support turn to the Lefty Oracle of the month below.

New Moon Lefty Oracle: Gonna Fly*

Mantra: I change.

Affirmation: I am free to be me.

Element: Air

Song
I'm ready to go.
To fly right outta here.

I know no boundaries
on earth or elsewhere;
above or below.

I am a force of nature;
divine in body AND soul.

My magick fills me
with purpose and freedom
and yes, flight.

I surrender.
I let go.
I am free to be me.

If this card appears in a reading either your spirit or your physical body, or both are ready to fly, move, shake things up, make a change, shift directions, vamoose! Perhaps this will enable you to see things from a different perspective or perhaps you’ll actually shift your reality in a big way by making a major change in your life. Whether big or small, this card signifies change. So embrace it, welcome it, prepare for it ‘cause it’s a coming…soon.

In my own life I kept pulling this card over and over until it felt like my mascot. I didn’t yet know what direction it would take me, but I opened my heart to receive and surrender to guidance and change. And move forward I did without mental distraction. This is how the Lefty Oracle deck and guidebook was birthed and exhibited in a fine art museum for all to see!

Gemini; the inner child, the trickster, guides us during this New Moon time so working with my Lefty Oracle Deck is the perfect choice for helping us access our inner child.

Be still, quiet...let the chatter subside. Fill your inner space instead with Faery Blessings of moonlight and starlight and the songs of gods at play. Welcome!

If you've already chosen your Lefty Card for the New Moon from my previous blog post or social media posts then read on for the results of your choice.

New Moon in Gemini Lefty Oracle Card Reveal

Card No. 1: At night Karya dreams of wings

Mantra: I am magical.

Affirmation: My dreams have wings and so do I!

Element: Air

Song
There is magick in the night.
When small sounds become big,
and feathers form wings.

I fly to meet my maker,
angelic, pink and proud.
Heart aflutter.
Mind still.

Light years flash by -
Moon-Clear,
Heart-Wise.
Intuition awakens.

If this card appears in a reading your dreams are ready to take flight. So make them good dreams, dreams that light you up inside and add roses to your cheeks. Small dreams or big, it's not important, but you do have dreams and it's time to start believing in them by taking that first step towards realization. Let them come alive in your heart, your  soul, your body, your mind. Believe in YOU. You are Divine.

In my own life, dreams have always guided me although it's far from easy to pay attention to them. Often my body knows the truth when my mind does not, so I listen on as many levels as I can because truth can often be subtle.

Card No. 2: Demon

Mantra: I transform.

Affirmation: I journey into the dark to discover inner truths.

Element: Spirit

Song
Be brave dear Soul,

face your fright.
open the door,
welcome the light.

If this card appears in a reading expect the unexpected! There is a trickster in your midst. Maybe it's you? Not a mean trickster, but a true trickster; one who shifts your reality and helps you see things from a new perspective. Perhaps you've become complacent, or lazy, or overly self satisfied, and are no longer seeing the big picture becuase you're too caught up in small details and worries. This WILL change soon so get ready to open your eyes wide and see the world in a whole new way.

In my own life I do my best to see negative, challenging experiences on a deeper level and I ask questions, such as, "What is the teaching in this? What is being mirrored back to me about myself? What changes need to happen now?"

Card No. 3: I refuse to take sides

Mantra: I flow.

Affirmation: I stand for truth, beauty, intelligence and integrity.

Element: Water

Song
By my nature
I flow.

I am rhythm: inexorable,
changeable, unstoppable.

I cannot live on land
Or in the air (for long)

I am water,
lake,
ocean,
pond,
river,

healing tears,
blessed rain,
ice, and snow.

I will not fight for you, or your gods,
but I will invite you
beneath and below,
where your will becomes gills
and your choices nil.

Welcome. 

If this card appears in a reading you ARE in your power. Un-swayed by others, you know what you want. Guided by your own moral compass, intuition and intellect, the path is made easier. There is a fated quality to your decision. This is what you were put here to do.

In my own life there is a lot of second-guessing, so when the above happens and things feel fated I just KNOW I’m on the right track. Often a dream will confirm it. It’s so much easier to move forward with pluck and confidence when this happens. I can only describe it as a bone-deep knowingness; so deep that nothing can touch it because it’s meant to be.

Let Go of Fear: Inspiration for the Taurus New Moon

Each month I share a Lefty Oracle from my self published deck to inspire your Moon Heart Journey into the mysteries. The New Moon is the best time of the month to set your intentions for the moonth ahead. This month the New Moon is in Taurus on May 15, 2018 at 4:48 am, Pacific Time.

Lefty Oracle for the New Moon: Homer, on the verge of greatness*

Mantra: I strive.
Affirmation: I let go of fear to be here now.
Element: Water

If this card appears in a reading it’s about time you asked yourself who you’re trying so hard to please and why it’s never enough. Instead of seeking approval outside of yourself go within and be your own best friend. You ARE good enough and, in fact you are the best YOU there is and the only YOU that will ever exist.

In my own life this card was inspired by my dad, and that story is a long one indeed. I learned a lot about what not do to in life from him, and for that I am grateful.

Creative Journal Prompt
Do you ever feel like Homer does, “On the verge of greatness?” If ‘yes’ then describe what that means for you and explain what it refers to as well. If not, then describe a feeling of being on the verge of greatness or something similar.

What does greatness look like to you? What meaning does it hold?

Are you on the way to achieving this greatness, and if so, what needs to happen for you to get there and to know greatness?  Try breaking it down into numbered steps within a timeline.

Now, congratulate yourself BIG TIME for your foresight and diligence in acknowledging right now, that even without all this, YOU ARE GREAT just by saying these words:

I am great.
Thank you Divine One for blessing me and my work.
I am great and so are you.

Homer's Song
“Stop trying to be soooo great,” 
my inner critic whines at me, 
but do I listen?
No way. 
I AM great
…in my own mind, 
or am I?
Isn’t that supposed to be the End Goal?
Sadly, it feels like the race will never end.
If only…
if only…
I could be present right now
and have THAT be enough.

*Excerpted from the Lefty Oracle Deck & Guidebook

The Lefty Oracle Deck and 92 page Guidebook will help you break through creative blocks, identify your gifts and empower your intuition so that you can move forward in a playful and profoundly life changing way.

This month's Art Giveaway is a digital print of Homer. The winner will be announced at the next Full Moon. To enter this giveaway simply sign up for my Museletter below.

New Moon in Aries Meditation

As we enter this most auspicious time of the year (in the Northern hemisphere) for beginnings - Spring and the first New Moon of the Year (in Aries) I'd love to share with you a short and vibrant New Moon Meditation I channeled just for you along with a Lefty Oracle card.

Blessed Be.

Aries New Moon, April 15, 2018

New Moon in Aries Meditation

Begin this New Year in silence. Perhaps beside your altar, or outside in nature.

Allow the Lefty Oracle card of the New Moon to speak to you. (see below)

Ask what you need, right now, from the Universe, the Divine, God/dess.

Ask for a light to shine upon your heart's most hidden desire, right now.

Don't dwell too long in this space, for you have work to do!

Next, I suggest that you write out a one word affirmation to help you connect with your heart's vision anytime/anyplace. Add a special, memory jogging symbol next to this word as well.

To end, thank your guides, the Divine and this Lefty.

Lefty Oracle for the New Moon: Miss Talitha Spider-Sister*

Mantra:  I am hidden.

Affirmation: I acknowledge the darkness within for out of the darkness comes the light.

Element: Spirit

If this card appears in a reading you are heading into the unknown and that can be scary, but at least you will be prepared. It may be a journey within to the hidden depths of your soul or it may take place in the mundane realms. It may be a time of deep emotion, facing fears, overcoming a challenge, seeking truth, legal issues, or worries and stress but you will come through it transformed and stronger than ever.

About Kathy Crabbe

Around age forty I became a professional Soul Reader because fate basically forced me to share all my mystical know-how with others rather than keep it to myself. I facilitated Moon Circles in California and Canada and turned much of my work into oracle decks which I use in my soul readings, both online and in person.

I continue to paint series inspired by my shamanic practice, nature, Goddess and my love of animals; both domestic and wild.

You DO have a choice: a Pisces New Moon Meditation

As I begin my Pisces Moon Meditation I can feel emotion washing over me, so I let it. And I breathe. Relax. Sink into the depths of this oh-so-waterey New Moon darkness.

Whatever little thing you do, that you think doesn't matter, it does. The magick is in the details. Allow your being to flow into this knowing-ness and rest there a moment...absorb.

Sparkly Blessings!

New Moon in Pisces Reading by Kathy Crabbe

Allow all else to fade/flow away until, like a vessel or bottle lost at sea, you are empty, awash, awake, yet dreaming. THIS is the space in-between (a very Piscean space to be). Remain un-tethered and float; safe, protected, warm, cherished, held, by the water of the sea, the river, the lake, a small still pool, deep in the forest.

There is a gift awaiting you here; allow yourself to hear/feel/see/taste it.

Now, take a moment to acknowledge your gift by gifting yourself with it! Journal it, draw it as a symbol, pull some oracle cards, and get intuitive.

How are you sharing this gift in YOUR life?

If you need assistance please ask my Lefty Oracle card of the New Moon to help you.

New Moon Lefty Oracle: Choice

Mantra: I am fearless.
Affirmation: I always have a choice. I am in Divine knowing-ness guided by my lucky star.
Element: Fire.

Song
Choice is one of the more challenging words in the English language.
I make choices every second! 
Or do I? 

Am I just doing what’s expected of me, 
or as I’ve been told to do? 

What if choice means that I stand alone against the world? 
What then? 

Each day in every way I choose integrity; 
an open mind, 
self respect, 
and education. 

The choice
is mine.

If this card appears in a reading it’s time to make a choice. Something important needs to be decided upon right now and you need to take the steps necessary to do so. Sometimes our choices can feel pre-ordained or just too difficult to make so we deal with it by burying our head in the sand. If you’ve been procrastinating, now is the time to move forward. This card demands that you make the tough decisions now so that you can move forward in your life. If unsure of what choice is best, take your time to weigh your options, make a pros and cons list or talk to a trusted friend, advisor, the Divine or your higher power. But act now while your options are open.

In my own life this card has a radical quality to it calling for decisive fearlessness. With Aries Rising in my astrological chart I MUST move forward bravely and strike while the iron is hot, so that the momentum of my decision can carry me full steam ahead. I see a choice as an opportunity to do what’s best for me first and foremost because only I know what my needs really are for optimal well-being.
