Clouds – 6th Moon day – we listen to the voice of Universe

September 13, 2018 Mariana Ivanova Comments 0 Comment

I pay attention to the world and its signs and it lead me to happiness!

This is the day when we listen to the voice of Universe and the God’s will. We follow the calling of powers of high and are filled with silence in order not to lose a moment when the destiny brings us to happiness, joy and love. We listen to everything that doesn’t depend on us – a wind blow, a jingle of a bell, music or silence. We listen to the world! On this day you should be attentive to the signs of the world – to everything you see and hear. It’s a good sign to see clouds on this day as a symbol of the world’s harmony. If the sky is fully covered with clouds it’s a sign which says that the world’s harmony is broken.

Today your intuition grows stronger and you are able to understand things which were not clear for you before. This day is full of love, forgiveness, prophecy, mental and verbal work for opening the Universe’ signs.

Fill in your room with odors; listen to silence and music of the wind. Do your routine but stay involved into cosmic rhythms. On this day we learn to take everything that happens with wisdom and submission without showing dissatisfaction. It’s the day of getting balance in life. Take everything as it is, don’t look for something else.

It’s important on this day to spend time in contemplation and inner calmness even if you stay active outwardly.

Don’t complain about your life, situations or close people this day.

«Breaking Up the Clouds» Practice

by Larisa Renar

According to ancient thought the sky is covered with clouds when the world or a person’s soul loses harmony. While breaking up the clouds a person establishes connection with himself.

Stand still, feet on width of shoulders, hands down. Cross the wrists of your hands with your palms looking inside a little lower than your navel is. Women put their left hand on the right one, men- vice versa. Bent your knees and look straight before yourself, breathe deeply. Stay still and collect the energy. Unbend your knees and put your hands up with wide flap up to sides. In the upper position stick your hands into the middle of clouds. Fist your hands and take the energy. Turn your palms and put them together by outer sides, connecting your inner energy with the power of clouds. Put your hands aside intensively and then down, bringing the energy flows by them. Return to initial pose. Perform the practice once at a time.

This practice helps to join the word energy flows and stay in harmony with them.

Clouds Meditation

by Larisa Renar

Clouds symbolize a prompting of skies, elusiveness or lofty feeling. For example, angels are often drawn standing on a cloud or a God’s hand is seen among the clouds. Clouds are the signs that the Universe gives us and we should read them.

We are lying and looking up to clouds. They are writing the signs of our destiny on the sky. A flying high cloud is enlightened with sunlight – these are the creative ideas born in our soul that we can realize. A cloud in a form of shield and with steel shadow symbolizes smth we should be afraid of, look where it goes to. A dark cloud is a thunderstorm met on our life way. And elusive lacy spindrift clouds are our hopes. The pictures seen during this short meditation tell you what signs you can meet today and will help you to understand them. Take the clouds of your sky with gratitude, calmness and readiness to follow the signs of your fortune.

I trust my soul to choose the good and light, creation and love!

This is the day of getting united with your family. A tree symbolizes a person himself, whose roots are connected with his forefathers that give him power, and a top aspiring to new heights and comprehension of higher sense. We recall different events which happened to us and think over the main lessons we got from those events. We thank the world for the lessons given and an opportunity not to repeat our mistakes. We ask our guardian angel to help us to choose the right way.

This is the day of switching on the powers of the good and the evil. Today we should make our deliberate choice between the good and the evil and the world checks us, giving provocative situations. Before doing or saying anything or making a decision on this day, read a prayer of «Intercession of the Mother of God», asking her for support: «Virgin Mother of God, rejoice, Mary full of grace; the Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, for thou hast borne the Savior of our souls». Or read a mantra «Om Mani Padme Hum».

This day is good for being all by yourself, performing some passive routine, communications with close people. Streams of different energies are raging and you should be very attentive and sensitive when making any decision today.

It’s important on this day to communicate with close people; positive thinking and belief in success. A meditation is desirable.

On this day one better not participate in collective work.

«Joining the Family Power» Practice

Our parents and forefathers give us life powers like roots feed a tree with life juice.

Stand up straight, feet on width of shoulders, hands down. Put your hands together behind your back, palms looking backwards like wings. For women: put your left hand into the right one, for men it’s vice versa. Make a full breath with your nose.

This practice lets us join the energy, power and potential of all our clan, our forefathers and descendants.

«Family Tree» Meditation

by Larisa Renar

Tree is a symbol of growth and support, longing upside and rooting into earth. Besides, a tree symbolizes birth, dead and revival – symbolizing life and contribution of mankind. The tree of life has often become a metaphor for creating the world. According to many cultural traditions it grows on a sacred mountain or in paradise. The flow of spiritual energy runs out from under its roots.

We are coming to our family tree and rest our back upon it. We are putting our palms on it and touching it with the back of the head. Our feet are touching the roots of the family tree and we feel the power and energy of our clan go up along its roots from the earth. Juices of life are getting into us from the tree, filling us up with power and with our inner sight we see the moments when women from our clan were really happy.

But there are also pictures that we should make lessons from. These dark juices are going into us as well in order we don’t repeat mistakes of the past. We feel unevenness and twists of cortex with our palms – they are the destiny lines of our clan, our family wisdom, our present time. Look up to the sunlight seen through the leaves. Every leaf of the tree is our descendants, our future. We absorb everything our clan gives us.

Leopard – 3rd Moon day – day of aggression

September 10, 2018 Mariana Ivanova Comments 0 Comment

I put all my power and passion to achieve my dream. My dream comes true!

It’s the day of aggression. So, passion and your active position in achieving wishes reveal themselves today. We feel the strength of our will and an ability to jump into the future and to achieve any aim, just like leopard, which symbolizes possess and full power concentration does. Make the first step to fulfill the ideas – the most important is to start actions. This can be something very simple: just a telephone call, a meeting, signing an agreement, buying some goods needed.

On this Moon day your activity, even if excessive, is good for you, while your passive position destroys you and your life. All passive people are weak today. The inner physical energy is so strong today that it’s enough for self-protection as well as for completing all the deals. Don’t be afraid of keeping your position and saying NO on this day, transform your negative emotions and your anger into power. Fulfill the complex of exercises, go to sauna, make manicure – don’t keep your energy inside and turn it to creation (mind that your deals should be peaceful). Complete the routine and simple tasks.

It’s important on this Moon day to show your will and keep your position, but at the same time to keep inner concentration and calm.

One shouldn’t jealous and show proud today.

«NO!» Practice

by Larisa Renar

«No» is like a compressed spring. If you always restrain a desire to stand for your point of view on the questions you consider to be inadmissible or to show your feelings, negative emotions start destroying you from within making a victim of you. It’s not always possible to argue with real people but you always can express everything that tortures you when you’re alone.

Stand on your knees in front of two pillows, hands together on your knees. Put straight hands in a lock, move them up and backwards. Make a breath and on an exhalation strike pillows with your hands as strongly as you can and rap out «NO!!!»

During next three minutes strike pillows with your hands as strongly as you can, each time moving your hands backwards above your head as far as possible. Let all the emotions leave you and transform into power. During the next three minutes you just sit down silently in an initial pose and follow your inner processes.

The «NO!» practice helps to build inner firmness and transform negative emotions into power.

Leopard Meditation

by Larisa Renar

Leopard symbolizes anger, aggression and fearlessness. Leopard is warlike and brave, impetuous and cunning. In its character is to hunt actively for a victim no matter what the latter is. Points on the light leopard’s fur are often compared with the eyes of nature gods looking at us.

We are going to transform into a leopard and become as brave and resolute in reaching aims as it is. We are hunting out for everything we need and are not going to return without a prey. Today we roar, stand for our opinion and reach our aim like experienced predators. Depict your aim like a prey that you’ve been looking for and watching out for a long time. And now you see it. The blood gets boiled, your muscles are tightened, and mind is cold. You feel the power of a real wild animal ready to jump play in you.

Jump, another one and the next one!.. Your plans are starting to come true from this day and you’re persistent like leopard, gracious and dangerous like a panther. You act and get what you want.

September 9, 2018 Mariana Ivanova Comments 0 Comment

Deeply with my soul I accept everything that the World gives me!

It is the day of filling up. On this day you should gather energy and knowledge to make your wishes come true. We attract everything we need to realize once thought. We call up the fountains of wisdom, look for an inspiration, absorb nature’s energy and ask each of the four elements to reveal its secrets, thinking of the Horn of plenty as the symbol of this day. Gather information; think over the strategy of aim achieving, start making energetic practices or the complex of exercises.

Listen to your own feeling while communicating with different people. If your feel sickness, most likely this person is dangerous for you. On this day one can understand what is pleasant for him and what is not in all the spheres of life. We fill ourselves up only with true values and most sacred wishes. These are things which give us true pleasure.

Anger and irritation take our energy away and today we need it all to fill the power of the sail of our dream with the wind. Be generous, make presents, get rid of the things you don’t need any more. Then the World will give you much more in return. We give things away generously and without any regret, revealing our generosity to the World and accepting its generosity in return.

It’s important on this day to be generous.

On this day one should not be angry and irritable or conflict with others.

«Switching on the Rhythm of Pleasure» Practice

by Larisa Renar

When a person enjoys every moment of his life – his work, relationship and the world around, he gets into the abundance stream of Universe.

Stand up straight, feet on width of shoulders, hands down. Put a little finger and a thumb of your left hand together and bring them to the dimple under your nose. It’s a point of pre-memory, a point of our aim. Make a breath, and on an exhalation turn left and say aloud «ONE», taking energy from the past and asking permission for getting pleasure. Return to initial pose.

«Horn of plenty» Meditation

Horn of plenty

Horn of plenty is a symbol of the world giving its presents to us. It symbolizes fertility, both male (horn is a phallic symbol) and female one (empty horn is a symbol of female stark). It’s an attribute of Gods that patronizing plant’s reproduction and wine-making, as well as the goddess of destiny and god-mothers Fortuna, Ceres and Althaeas.

We are getting everything we need to make our dream come true from the horn of plenty – wealth and powers, abilities and meetings, beauty and pleasure. But the horn of plenty is inexhaustible and we sharing its gifts with close people. We make presents and pleasant surprises to make the life of every person close to us a little happier and wealthier. And the more we give the more we got from the world.

The Lamp – New Moon – dreaming and planning for the month

September 8, 2018 Mariana Ivanova Comments 0 Comment

The Universe helps me with my plans!

Moon is called the lamp of night. And every lamp symbolizes life, wisdom, eternal life, intellect, pointing out the way. Its light is our kind deeds and plans, defeating the darkness of chaos and showing everything hidden before.

New Moon – a day for cleansing when we start to create our own reality while dreaming and planning for the month. So we clear ourselves of everything old, dead clichés and old behavior models, get free of abuses for the world, the kin and our parents. We get rid of the items carrying the energy of previous relations, like presents given by ex-lovers or husbands. If it’s hard for you to drop the goods, they could be easily cleaned in salted water in order to cut invisible energetic threads tying us with the past.

Sometimes problems chase us on this day, revealing our weak points, like a light which enlightens the dangers and wrong places to go, showing things which are to be dropped. The most important on this day is to realize the Worlds lessons and to find decisions in order not to repeat the same mistakes. At the same time it is a day when we can create our new reality.

Write down everything you dream about in accordance with 12 parts of your life (12 Moon life aspects from «Women Time» calendar) and looking at the candle light imagine that everything is already achieved. The more realistic we imagine the wishes, the more details we attach to the picture and the more positive we become of the imagining aim achieved, the more possibilities to realize it are there. In addition, say: «the thought is written down, the written is realized.»

It’s important to write down the monthly plans today.

One shouldn’t start new deals on this Moon day.

«Dismissing grudges against the World» Practice

Grudges against the world mean our dissatisfaction with our motherland, a family in which we were born, an epoch we live in, and everything we cannot change. These grudges take away our energy, health and joy.

Stand up straight, feet on width of shoulders, hands down. At exhalation raise your hands in front of you to the chest line. Your fists are tight, thumbs up, as if you show to the World: I’m fine!
