MEDITATING WITH THE MOON – Tuesday, January 24, 2017
MOON IN SAGITTARIUS THEN CAPRICORN
Excitable emotions around security, home, beliefs, moral questions, or boundaries could lead to misunderstandings with others, or you could experience tension between your feelings and your ego, your heart and your desires. Elevate the passionate energy by championing someone or something you feel strongly about and positively answering the call to courage. Be direct and open, and be kind.

HOW TO MEDITATE WITH THE MOON
Using these simple Moon thoughts are a wonderful way to begin a daily meditation practice that keeps you focused on, and grounded in, the emotional energy of the Cosmos each and every day.
You can do a very simple 8/4 count meditation, which means you settle into a comfortable position, close your eyes, focus on your breath, and breathe in to a slow count of 8, hold it for 4 counts, and then breathe out for a slow count of 8. Hold your breath again for 4 counts. On the in-breath recite a word or phrase from the Moon Meditation in your mind, focusing on that energy and holding it, and then consciously release that same energy out into the world on the out-breath. Then empty your mind space for 4 counts, and begin the process again on the in-breath, either using the same word/phrase you’re working with (until it feels comfortable and “right”) or move on to the next word or phrase from the Moon Meditation.
