the first full moon - the wolf moon

under a white blanket of snow, I contemplate the blessings blooming in my life...under the full moon I pray, giving thanks and asking for continued guidance...

"Characteristics and behaviors that no longer serve your spiritual purpose are being culled from your consciousness. Make cooperation a priority over competition. Valuable insights, ideas, and new teachings are coming your way, so pay close attention. It's important to maintain your self-esteem and integrity and deeply trust in your inner knowing, even when you feel misunderstood or misaligned. You're being spiritually and pscychically protected at all times, so there's really no need to fear."

- Dr. Steven Farmer

"Women and wolves are relational by nature, inquiring, possessed of great endurance and strength. They are deeply intuitive, intensely concerned with their young, their mate and their pack..."

- Dr. C.P. Estes
