New Moon is Tuesday, January 20 at 6:13 AM Mountain Standard Time (MST)

An important day for some kind of activation ceremony, ritual or special focus on something new that you are creating in your life. If you have a project or a new relationship or personal practice that is important to you, spend some extra time and energy honoring it and “feeding” it with creative energy as well as an upgraded commitment to do what it takes.

Full Moon is Sunday, January 4 at 9:53PM Mountain Standard Time (MST). This full moon is a real recipe for activation on many levels.

Winter Solstice is Sunday, December 21 at 4:03 PM MST (Mountain Standard Time) followed by the New Moon at 6:35 PM MST.

This is a uniquely powerful time and because the solstice and the New Moon fall on the same day, it is truly a time to say goodbye to the old and to anchor something new

Full moon is Saturday, December 6 at 5:27 AM MST (Mountain Standard Time).

This is a great time for observation and choices regarding RESPONSIBILITY. Make an inventory of what needs attention. Set some good boundaries and make some new choices. Do something that takes advantage of an opportunity that has emerged out of some situation that looks at first glance like a challenging limitation.

New Moon is Saturday, November 22 at 5:32 AM Mountain Standard Time (MST).

This is a reset. The time can be confusing and you may not have a great grip on what your reality is. Take some time this day to go back to basics and review the last few weeks. What is working, what is not working, what did you intend to do but have not done yet, what feels incomplete or completely disorganized, what are you afraid of, what needs to end and what do you want to begin.

Full Moon is Thursday, November 6 at 3:22 PM Mountain Standard Time (MST).

How can you make your container bigger and stay practical at the same time?

What you do here on this full moon will carry you forward. So take advantage and set new patterns in any way you can. Do some clearing of anything that feels old and fearful. Become more aware of your resources especially the physical ones and take some time to be in great gratitude for what you do have and honor how those resources support you. Be creative in how you can take your present resources and use them to expand that container. Be open to the unknown resources that are just around the corner that may manifest in your reality if you allow them to.

The New Moon with a partial Solar Eclipse is Thursday, October 23 at 3:56 PM MDT (mountain daylight time).

This is the second eclipse of the month and serves as a bookend to the most highly eccentric aspect of the month. Take some time today to just breathe. It’s as if you have just witnessed the most radical circus act and your adrenalin is settling back to normal. If there is any way to take a bit of a retreat here just to honor yourself and your authentic self with gratitude and awareness of your many talents, do it. It could just be that you give yourself an hour to be in contemplation or you leave work early to take a walk.

Full Moon with a total Lunar Eclipse is Wednesday, October 8th at 4:50 AM MDT (mountain daylight time).

This is truly an intense and possibly highly emotional time that will trigger and push everything to the edge and beyond. Instead of retreating or freezing up in fear and terror, go out and become part of the storm. Harness the tremendous energy that has the potential to feed your creativity and dreams in ways you could never have imagined.

The Autumn Equinox is exact on Monday, September 22 at 8:59PM MDT.

Pluto also goes direct on this day. The Equinox is always a great time to RESET and to honor endings so that you can make room for new beginnings. The endings or completions are especially important during this season and especially in light of changes that may be occurring in your life. Acknowledge the changes and honor the endings that are coming about because of them.

It is always important to mark the equinox through a ritual of some kind. You can honor your endings through a burning or burial of a representation of them. Follow this with writing intentions for something new.

The New Moon is Wednesday, September 24 at 12:13 AM MDT (or the night of the 23rd).

Since this new moon is right on the heels of the Autumn Equinox, the same suggestions apply and you can honor both the new moon and the equinox at the same time.

Full Moon is Monday, September 8 at 7:38 PM MDT.

Celebrate a change in your life. Even if it is a challenging one and you are struggling with accepting it, celebrate it anyway. This is a time to embrace change and use its power to expand yourself into new territory. It is also a good day to anchor the beginning of a new project, a routine or a relationship, OR the beginning of a new phase in a project, routine or relationship. Celebrate it.
