Hello out there...anyone else feeling frustrated? Grrr.....I have a beautiful quote from Earth Medicine by Jamie Sams to share with you.
Frustration, along with a bunch of other emotions we usually label as negative, isn't really bad...it's a message that something needs to change. Same with anger! But if it gets stuck or if we turn against ourselves, or get lost in a battle with what is, it can be a huge barrier to clarity and to manifesting what you want.
This is on my mind today because today is the October new moon and because I'm feeling frustrated as all get out!
New Moons, and especially the three days leading up to the new moon, called the dark of the moon, are great days to begin or continue manifesting new things. That's why I always begin the 5 day Joyful Manifesting momentum program (I believe it's time to drop the word "Intensive" as the program is more like manifesting e-z) on the new moon.
The next Joyful Manifesting program isn't till November and you can read more here: www.joyfulmanifesting.com. Why wait when you have the power to manifest each and every day, and you have the new moon energizing you now!
Do you know what it is you are wanting to experience, or create in your life? Do you feel clear on the mental and emotional levels about your ability to manifest?
Or are you feeling stuck, frustrated, angry or in despair? There are a LOT of planetary energies impacting us right now...you may want to do a full belief clearing with me or a 20 minute Emotion Code clearing. Just call me at 973-655-1745 to set that up.
From Jamie Sams: "Healing Frustration":
When frustration and anxiety overwhelm our sense of well-being it is time to take a break. Nothing can be done about the confusion or the lack inof clarity when we are in the same environment (physical or mental environment) that created the situation. When everything we touch or try do ends up falling short, we are out of sync with our body's rhythms, the Thought World, and the rhythms of the Earth Mother that allow our lives to flow with ease.
Healing this type of frustrationis accomplished by stopping all activity. That is to say we can change the chaos, allowing the ease of desired manifestation, by changing our internal rhythms. Taking a walk and breathing deeply, calming the senses, and noticing things we can admire about the outdoors can shift our perceptions.
When we feel the new rhythm of calmness flow through our bodies, we step into a new point of view, allowing clarity to come. When we see the clear picture of what we want and intend, we ask the Earth Mother to bless that idea or mental picture by manifesting it in the tangible world.
When we show our gratitude for new clarity and the manifestation of our ideas, we have completed the circle between the Thought World and the natural World. We have then healed our frustration by being in sync with both worlds and we become the connection that brings the two worlds together as one. From this point of balance, all things become possible and we can create at will. "
It's a gorgeous golden fall afternoon in Santa Fe. Anyone want to join me for a walk?
Many blessings,
Ellen

Time to turn within before Joyfully manifesting!
Before the New Moon time which is so good for asking, and deciding "What do I want to manifest?" is the Dark moon. The New Moon is September 15th which is preceded by the dark of the moon from the 12th to the 15th.
Astrologically this has been a year to look backwards, introspect on past choices and phases of li, and make decisions about what you will and won’t take with you into the future. With the many planets in retrograde, we are asked to slow down and really consider what matters, what we truly care about and are willing to commit to.
We are now in the month of Elul, the last month in the Jewish calendar, also a time of reviewing the year just passing and doing some introspection, before the High Holy days In late September.
Soon there will be a new moon in Virgo, on September 15th…To support you in manifesting, the Joyful Manifesting Intensive will begin on September 13th. What is cool is that the start of the Intensive coincides with the dark of the moon--the three days just before the new moon. What a powerful time to look inside!
Here is some interesting writing about the dark of the moon by astrologer Molly Hall:
The Dark of the Moon—the power of the Dark:
The dark Moon is private, intimate, richly renewing and full of
depth. The waning Moon is a time of letting go, and as you're stripped of what you've known, there's a moment of standing naked, not knowing who you are. This might be what dying is like, an awesome mystery that makes us feel fully awake at that final moment. What comes next, we wonder?
I've found the dark Moon to be the most powerful time for organically unfolding soul-searching. The inner Self starts to grow in power, and make its presence known. Ideally, you can listen, integrate, and set intentions that will bring you into harmony with yourself during the waxing Moon.
Stillness is the key word for the dark Moon. Restful, rich solitude gives you the chance to hear that inner voice. With the lunar face hidden, the intuitive-psychic self takes over. Make space for a clearing of the mind and spirit, so that you can be ready to receive.
There's a historic pattern of fearing the dark, and denying death. But it's a fact of nature, and if embraced, can be met as the winding down before the next new beginning. The Moon is associated with women, and many Goddesses like Hecate, Kali, Lilith, represent her dark aspect. The dark Moon reminds us of nature's cycles of death and rebirth. The grave and the womb become the same place, a transition when you're held in the mystery beyond physical existence.
Each dark Moon is a chance to be renewed, to experience unknowing, and to gain timeless wisdom. The dark Moon opens a door to the past, and it reaches back far into the collective memory. Make it a sacred time for yourself each month, a time to connect to the great mystery of life.
