As the mirror portal comes to a close by the end of this week, we are diving even deeper with our meditation of self. The 121212 portal opened and has confronted us about our karmic behaviour. These behaviours have [and will continue this week] shown what it is we need to really work on through the people we have been surrounded by, the places we’ve gone and what we’ve participated in, during this time. With Winter Solstice quickly approaching, the veil for many is becoming the thinnest it will be on this plane for the year. This brings up a lot of deep rooted issues to be confronted and even receiving more visits from the Ancestors.
As Above, So Below
Here is what the stars are showing in alignment to these downloads I have received:
Neptune has a lot of influence for us this week and will have us wanting to stay in the 5D, instead of facing our present issues. Although this is not something I would recommend to anyone, it is important for us now to become mindful of our subconscious as it Is being mirrored to us in the 3D. With Neptune trine to Mars, expect lots of travelling to the other side, or vivid dreams. When you return you will see the influence through your actions and have many “déjà vu” moments, feeling like you’ve already done this before or been here before; it’s because you have!
Neptune is also square to the moon and Mercury, giving us a lout cloudy thoughts and fear of deception and illusion. Mercury is in Sagittarius so our mind will run wild to big extremes, of “what ifs” this week. Always follow your intuition and be prepared for any conflict that can flare up at this time. Saying yes or signing contacts this week could be a gamble, so try your best to hold off from any important/major decisions until after this portal is closed.
The moon starts us off this week in Leo, making a trine to Uranus and Jupiter. Self reflection of the past, perhaps the past year, is a theme you can see for yourself. As we prepare for the holidays, we know we won’t have much time to ourselves once they arrive. So if you do find yourself constantly reflecting and thinking of the future, go with it! Jupiter is in Capricorn and encourages us to go big with our dreams and have faith in them, because we know that the plan we have set for ourself will get us there. Uranus in Taurus however reminds us that change is sometimes slow and cannot be forced. When creating this plan for your dreams and 2020, ensure you are being practical and not putting too much pressure on yourself.
Venus is having a nasty time being in conjunction to Pluto and Saturn while also making a square to Uranus. There is a possibility that some of you are also ending relationships that do not serve you. It won’t happen quickly, in fact it will be rather painful. You are in a phase of transformation and are redefining the things that are being attracted into your life. And if you are in a relationship/seeing someone, you can expect yourself this week to reflect how much freedom you feel in that kinship, if any at all. As a reminder, Venus is all about attraction, not just love! And while we are in this mirror portal, this is a week where we are really thinking about what the law of attraction means to us and how we are manifesting certain frequencies into our life, affecting our abundance. So if you’re not in any kinship, you can be reflecting on the decisions you made this year and how they’ve manifested in the 3D for you.
As Within, So Without
The stars are always the map and compass I like to use first because I know it is true. But I will always pull cards intuitively to confirm what my guides would like for us to know as well. Here’s what we have:
Ace of cups, 2 of pentacles, 5 of pentacles, 10 of pentacles, 2 of swords, 4 of cups, the hierophant, full moon and new moon in Scorpio, disseminating moon
This is a week to be working closely with our third eye and root chakra. There’s a sense of balance that is necessary while we purge the last of this year away.
Allow Spirit to speak to you and surrender completely. There’s a sense that your heart chakra is over stimulated right now as you are feeling a little bit defeated and disappointed in yourself. As you reflect on this past year or whatever is showing up for you during this mirror portal, it has you deep in a funk. How did this even happen and why is it happening? Weren’t You the one who called all the shots and took control over everything, this year? Is there a possibility that you said “yes” to too many things and now you’re juggling too much and feeling unfulfilled? If you are, it’s okay. You haven’t lost.
Give yourself permission this week to take time out for you and breathe. The mental clutter is cloudy but is also useful. Take time to unplug from reality in order to meditate on this clutter and use it to your advantage. This wisdom will help carry you into next year and ensure you are ready. Just remember there is no need for you to say yes to everything! If your plan is working for you as it is, why change it? Stay the steady course and continue. Only add on and invest in what is going to help your dream grow, nothing else!
Your Ancestors will be speaking to you heavily this week. Ensure you are keeping an open mind to how they choose to speak to you at this time. It’s time for you to ask them for some guidance and wisdom and how They would handle the situation. Going back to a more simpler and traditional way of doing things may actually give you a better result than forcing yourself to do what everyone else is doing. What traditional practices were given to you from your Ancestors, that are not being practiced now? It’s time to return. When you do, your Ancestors will too in various ways and have the message and confirmation you need to hear now in order to thrive.
Double Scorpio energy from the oracle deck is reminding us that we have shadows and fears to work through. As this mirror portal closes on 12/21, the Winter Solstice, we will also be closing this chapter of insecurity. Take the time you need to face your fears as they show up in 3D time for you. There’s no need to confront them all at once. Each fear/shadow thought needs its own time with You so it can truly be banished the way it needs to be. Where do your values of others stand compare to the values you have for yourself? Do you hold yourself to the same standards, or lower/higher? What fear and insecurities do you have that are showing up Now and being magnified, that have you being defensive/anxious in the present, when truly it is a reflection you See? Scorpion energy is also very deep and intense so invoke some water magick this week to help with this process.
Herbs & Tools to Use
With this week’s energy, you can use the following to help keep you free of dis-ease:
Lavender
Chamomile
Lemon balm
Sage
Calendula
Dragon’s blood
Red jasper
Carnelian
Any quartz
Selenite
It is important for us to charge ourselves as we prepare for Yule and Winter Solstice. For many of us Cosmic Coven members, this is a time of year where we spend the most time with our families which can be very difficult. Allow yourself this time Now before the chaos becomes too loud, to recharge.
I send you all Ra & Mehr as you continue to work on your shadow side. Remember, the goal isn’t to banish our shadow side, but to be in tune with it and show it to the light.
