Disconnection
WOW! What a month it has been! We have been in an auspicious transition phase this month with three eclipses, five planets in retrograde, and the Solar eclipse falling on Summer Solstice.
During this period I had a strong feeling I needed to retreat and go inward, so I escaped the city and headed to the very magical South West of England. I had to take my own advice, slow down, and find time to be in silence and receive, in order to see the next steps more clearly.
I disconnected from social media but I couldn't switch off. The sad truth is I am addicted to my phone.
I was almost afraid that if I wasn't on it I would miss something and it would be disastrous. On the Solstice night I lost my phone on top of the Glastonbury Tor, forcing me to let go and be in the flow, and actually take a holiday (and honour the promise to myself.)
It was a relief in many ways, as this is an important time to hear your inner wisdom. A cycle is completing and there have been a lot of sudden changes that we have had no control over, leaving many of us unsure of what direction to take.

Whatever is being set in this next cycle, will be the process for the next twenty-five years. From the biggest decisions to the smallest, whatever you are choosing in the next few months, to Autumn Equinox, will have long term implications.
My advice for this period is to prepare for where you want to be. If you are not happy with where you live, this is the time to move. If you are not happy in a relationship this is the right time to leave. If you are not happy in your job, find something more fulfilling.
Life is pushing us out of our comfort zones, so we can see where we have become 'comfortably numb', and forcing us to make changes. This third and final Capricorn full moon eclipse on Sunday is bringing up whatever is still suppressed, feelings of being limited or stuck, and unfulfilled desires.
We are also having to face the consequences of decisions we made in the past, and we will start seeing karma play out in the most strangest of ways.
If things start wobbling we must find the balance of the mountain goat and learn to be comfortable at the edge, however precarious it may be.
