I pointed out in the last Surfcast that I’ve been going through something and have been feeling a little lost, I’ve been going through bit of a existential crisis, where the ground became the sky for no real explainable reason - well maybe Eclipse Season and personal twelfth house cycle 🤠
But I’m not alone in this.. It’s pretty clear that we’re all going through something, there is BIG CHANGE afoot which is usually accompanied with some kind of internal conflict because it requires letting go and that process is hard.
When life become so serious, cluttered and lackluster or when the sky becomes the ground..
It’s time to ask a lot of questions…
Like:
How can I make this more fun?
What do I like?
How can I create more space?
What feels good to me?
How can I play more?
What kind of creative expression feels best?
How can I add to the overall vibes rn?
Or just “???” 🤷🏼♀️
Have you been searching for something?? 👀
Well, this New Moon provides the cosmic energy to bring that quest to fulfilment 🎯
If you’ve been stuck on or looking for something, time to throw out the rules, think outside the box, try new things, reframe the problem and see it through the curious lens of a child.. problems then seem like a fun opportunity to investigate and experiment, less like a frustrating and boring chore..
This New Moon has a very curious, playful, nostalgic, sensual and seductive energy.
Which brings the necessary energy to question everything that you “think” you know and “believe” to be true.. When did life get so boring and fixed and you just resided to that fact that this is just how it is now 🤷🏼♀️..
Idk about you but a lot of the things I thought or believed were one way, have recently shifted and now it’s totally different, we’re on the edge of a Collective Paradigm shift and adopting a curious and openminded perspective will help adapt to the intensive speed of new ideas and technologies.
I grew up in the hardcore music scene which instills independent thinking and values questioning everything especially societal, political and authoritative rules. I appreciate adopting this rebellious and creative outlook on life at a young age because it asks you to always think for yourself and in times like this I’m grateful to look for the upside even when things feel like they are the wrong way up..
It is taking place in the fifth Lunar constellation known as Mrigashira which bridges between Taurus to Gemini, it’s placed evenly between them and this New Moon takes place on the Gemini side (Sidereal)
It’s made up of three faint stars located at the head of Orion (the hunter). It’s called “the searching star” and shows the beginning of the search for bliss and the divine cosmic nectar.
There is a quality of longing and searching here. It is also often called “the wandering star” which reflects the crossing the cosmos in pursuit of beauty, but this search is gentle one.
Symbolised by a deer and people born with Mrigashira placements are said to be doe-like🦌 gentle, curious, shy and beautiful.
Henri-Georges Clouzot, The Mystery of Picasso, 1956
There is a curious and strange magnetism that you draws you close.. it’s weird and wonderful and all things in-between. Creativity has no boundaries or parameters and no rules and we really get to see that here, it’s also reflected in nature and children (there’s no playbook or limits just pure imagination and possibility.)
The New Moon motto “it just isn’t that deep”
So if you’re overthinking or getting stuck in the seriousness of life.. time to start asking questions, embody your inner child and think about how silly things are, how dumb we look when we’re all serious, generally how weird life is.. it’s really not that deep, life is mean to be fun!!
It’s really just one big divine creative act or intersection of energy and physical matter. Which you could even say energy and intellect.
This asks you to invite more space, creativity, play and fun into your life.. which in turn helps strengthen your connection to your identity, meaning and purpose in life.. and helps you to communicate and express yourself creativity..
This process should be fun not forced.
