A fiery full moon in Aries takes place tonight. As an archetype, fire is life force, self-esteem, courage, transformative power. And the full moon is a time for gratitude, for honoring the fullness of life. How has fire been an ally to you? In what ways are you expressing your fire?
Here's a simple spiritual practice you can do tonight to honor the fire within:
***
Center yourself in front of a mirror. Light a candle. A red one would be perfect, but any color will do. Recall all the ways you have been courageous, stood up for yourself, made positive change or expressed your life force this past month. Now make eye contact with yourself in the mirror. Say aloud: "By the power of this fire's light, I honor my own inner power tonight. I see the power in me. I am the power I see." Gaze at your own glorious reflection until you feel complete. Bring your hands together in prayer position. Then blow out the candle.

There were many ways that I had the opportunity to express my fiery life force this month, not the least of which was launching my Seeds of Wisdom Oracle iPhone App! It was a real labor of love that came to fruition through the efforts of many people. And now it's been downloaded around the world!
To my surprise, only 50% of the downloads of the app so far have been in the U.S. The oracle has gone global, with downloads across Europe, in Ghana, Jordan, Bahrain and other countries. (I confess I had to look at a map to locate Bahrain.)
Since the moment I began fundraising to gather resources to build this app, I had the Life Force card on my altar with a special yellow-orange crystal right on the sunflower's center. And tonight, I shall remove that stone, say another round of gratitude prayers, and honor the Great Creator whose power moves through us all.
