Tell me, what is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life? Mary Oliver

I wrote the following letter to my friends after I had to cancel a New Moon Circle morning at my house. I had been so excited the week leading up to a little gathering in my new home. I had been planning and gathering information. And then the morning of, Deia woke up with a fever so I had to cancel. I was S O sad, but instead I channeled my energy and information into an email for my friends……

“Happy New Moon in Leo, Lady Loves!

I have really been focusing on BEING IN THE FLOW since Conner was born. Trusting that the best laid PLANS usually don’t happen and being OK with that. I can’t tell you how many times I have tried to make something like this happen and something always gets in the way. Ya know what? I think it’s the universe telling me that I’m giving too much outside of myself, and my family. It’s been such a constant lesson to me the past couple of years….. Being the LEO that I am- I just want to give give give (because that truly fills me up!)…. but I think Spirit always checks in with me and asks “oh but Emily…. are you giving first to yourSELF and then to your kids and husband?”   And then Deia gets a cold and snot is being wiped on me at 11 PM and I’m pouring (fucking) doTerra oils on her feet all night in between breast feeding sessions and I say “SHIT!! nooooo! You’re right, Spirit! I was spreading us out to thin! My (and my kids’ ) energy was leaking because I had our days jam packed this week and I didn’t slow things down and just SIT and enjoy my kids!”

And then I have to cancel a morning that I was SO looking forward to. But I do have trust that it happened for a reason and the timing will work itself out.

I trust that you are all getting filled up in your own ways, too. SO I really want to share a few quotes that I was going to share today. And then to ask a few questions for you to ask yourself…. maybe even carve out a few minutes to journal! And maybe even meditate!

“The capacity to is equally as powerful as the capacity to .”

and then….

“Nurture and support yourself in equal proportions to how you nurture and support others.”

Where do you feel like your energy is leaking?  Or maybe with whom?

What can you eliminate in your life starting TODAY?

The following question really provoked deep thought for me “What are your true responsibilities versus your obligations?”

What are your priorities at this point in your life?

What GIVES you energy lately?

This new moon in Leo is a very powerful time (especially the next 8 hours) to WISH and DREAM and HOPE for some big things in your life. I encourage you to think about how you want to FEEL in your relationships with SELF, partner, children, parents, friends and of course SPIRIT or God or the earth.

What are the top 10 feelings that you are CRAVING right now and would like to bring forth in the next 6 months?! Tell the Universe “I WANT TO FEEL ………!!” “I want to feel………”

and I will leave you with this quote…..

love love LOVE
