The new moon is in Cancer and on July 2nd. It is also a total solar eclipse. This provides us with a unique opportunity to get in touch with our emotions. So what does that really mean? It’s about being in the moment and realizing how potent every moment is.

It’s big picture time with this big ‘ole full moon. A sag full moon puts stars in our eyes and idealistic ideas in our heads. Sounds exciting and perfect for goal setting but are we losing ourselves in it? It’s possible we have gone too far out and don’t have a good ground or foundation to build on.

At some point during a girl’s night out we get to complaining about our problems. We all have that one situation we just don’t know how to handle and we reach out to our best friends for insight or a big ‘ole shoulder to cry on.

Let’s get to know the wonderful Heart Chakra. It is in the center of your chest and a beautiful emerald green. The chakra is a busy little bee because its chief purpose is to process your life events.

Women have been talking about self love for a long time. They even took the scary out of it by switching up and calling it self care. We women have to really put effort into self love or care because it’s not a natural first response in us, not yet.

In June we transition out of earthy Taurus into airy Gemini. This is the season of the mind, communication, learning and being in the now. Gemini has been considered a flaky energy but this is simply not true. This sign of the intellect is capable of processing so many ideas that focusing on one thing just wouldn’t do.

Have you ever thought back on a bad experience and really felt awful about yourself, as if time didn’t do what it promised and heal that wound for you? Yes, I have too and it has held me back and colored my opinion of myself.

The Full Moon in Scorpio occurs on May 18th. Oh boy, buckle up because Scorpio is involved. This full moon is typecast for drama and tragic truth-telling. Alas, it is the way of the Scorpio full moon. You will find that secrets will be revealed.

When you look into the mirror do you like what you see? The best way to gauge your level of self-love is to notice your reaction to your reflection in the mirror. Did you go straight to critical analysis or did you smile at yourself? If you did not fall deeply in love with your eyes, the mirror of your soul, it’s time to re-evaluate everything you stand for and how it’s manifesting in your life.

When you are under psychic attack you need to address it right away. Whether the attack is purposeful or a case of jealousy or anger gone wild ignoring it and hoping it will go away can leave you open to some very uncomfortable times.

You will do this many times in your life, so don’t get bogged down with worries about getting it wrong. Reviewing and re-evaluating where you are on your life path and your own values and morals is such a great way to return to the authentic you.

This month we plant ourselves firmly in the earth with Taurus. Taurus is mostly known for its ruler ship over money, however, there is a deeper side of Taurus that is lost in our quest for material resources and objects.

When it comes to the moon, the most exciting time is when it is full. On a clear night, it reflects so much solar power it lights our way, but it’s when the moon is new we are the calmest. This is the quiet time of new beginnings where we cleanse, rest, reflect and prepare to grow.

The Full Moon in Libra occurs on April 19th, and brings us some special energy and a unique opportunity. Here is what Storm has to say about this Full Moon in Libra.

The Full Moon cycles reflect the period of the month where the Moon begins to decrease in light.

Mary, our sales goddess, asked me to write an article on why Coventry Creations Candles work. I thought what a great question. We leave so much to trust and faith that we miss out on an opportunity to learn why something works.

The New Moon is in Aries on April 5th. This is a powerhouse New Moon. Please pay close attention to it because this is when we astrologically need to begin “new things”. This includes new jobs, relationships, projects, or things that we want to pursue but have put off.

This month we are exploring the way we use our power. Without a source of power and the ability to harness it, we are ineffectual in our life. Kinda like a light bulb. We can not glow if we are not plugged in and turned on.

In April, we are turned toward the mirror and given the opportunity to face our personal negativity again and decide what we want to do with it. It truly is a time for growth on many levels.

Libra has to do with relationships and business partnerships and the Full Moon gives us an opportunity to remove things from our life that are not working. This is a great time to do magic focusing on ending relationships or partnerships in a positive manner.

When making a candle purchasing decision, we often wrestle with whether or not we want beeswax, soy or paraffin. We also wonder if a candle made with essential oil is healthier than a candle made with fragrance oil.
