Maybe they emphasize the cyclic theme of this reading: from the new moon to the dark moon, one full lunation<br />It does help to acknowledge your feelings.

Not that it's particularly pleasant, but sadness usually doesn't resolve itself - it waits for acknowledgement. Sigh! Oh life. Yes, the reflection of "cycles" in both of your cards is nice to see. It's interesting how the crescent moon in the Wheel is waxing, and in the Moon card it is waning (but lit up with yellow).

I could worry about floods. In Canada here we've had a dreadful monstrous fire that has whipped out a whole city and about 90,000 people were evacuated. I could worry about fires all across Canada and global warming.<br /><br />It would be easy for me to awefulize everything that is going on in the world that I have little to no control over, including the goings on in my own life. But I remain hopeful, work at letting go, and draw on the inner wisdom, like the owl who sees in the dark, and the moon reminds me to draw on my intuition, and ignore the crazy making that I can create all by myself!<br /><br /> I have to remain calm and make sure I don't got caught up in the daily stress of my own problems which only leaves me not being able to see the forest for the trees because I have forgotten to be grateful.

This is such a great insight. I love this post, your honesty, your heart, your musings. Bev's got some great practical advice there in looking to the tree for grounding and you've connected it up with the one in your yard. Love when the community comes together like this.

Things are going to change on their on timetable, not mine. I love the evergreens that frame the Moon. They've got deep roots that can keep you grounded no matter what is confusion clouds our understanding. May you nourish yourself with those roots until the clouds clear, my friend!thesycamoretreehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15182019323050600440noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8158245992923239671.post-23054418702480713972016-05-07T18:56:12.527+02:002016-05-07T18:56:12.527+02:00Yes, taking is slow is the best way for now.
