We will be having a Full Moon in Aquarius on July 31st at 10:43am Universal Time. It is the second one of July, which we refer to as a “Blue Moon” in modern times. This happens every 2-3 years.

The origins of the term Blue Moon trace back to the Maine Farmer’s Almanac in the 19th Century. However, it originally referred to the 3rd of 4 Full Moons in a season, and interestingly was not associated with a calendar month like it is today. Therefore we now have both seasonal and calendar Blue Moons, this one being the latter. I have found that in some cases the events and circumstances which occur during these Moons may ring true to the “once in a blue moon” definition.

About Full Moons

Full Moons are the peak of the Moon cycle, as this is when the light of the Sun completely fills the Moon and marks the beginning of the following 2 week period when the light starts fading. This is known as the “waning phase.” Symbolically, because this is when the light begins to recede, this represents a time of release. Full Moons are generally the most intense and lively time of the Moon cycle.

God said:

You were always meant to be. There never was a time when you were not. Always you have been My beloved. Never have you not been, only now you are My beloved Sleeping Beauty.

I went Knock Knock, and one day you clearly heard My knock. The rest is history, as they say.

We are One Breath. We are superimposed upon each other, as it were. There is togetherness. We walk in Oneness. My robes are yours.

My children, you, the version of Me in the form of yourself, tend to get absent-minded. Your mind goes off on a tangent. We can call the world a tangent. It is a tangent. Nevertheless, it is a tangent that inevitably leads to Me, that is, inevitably leads to your Awareness of Me. We can call it a Meeting with Me as if for the first time.

You are catching up. You are catching up right to where you sense Our relationship of Oneness unlike any other. You never were the image you have had of yourself. You were not made in your image but in Mine, solidly in Mine.

Your desire for Me is My desire for you. We are Oneness. We swirl in Oneness. We do a dance of Oneness. You believe you sweep across the Universe and have adventures. We are the adventure, beloveds. Oneness is the adventure. We sit at home by the fireside of love. The figment called you sees pictures pass before you. We always are at Home in Infinity. We are established in Infinity. In Truth, there is nowhere else to be.

And then you ask: “Why this misadventure into the physical world then? Must we have it, God?”

Suburbanization and industrial deforestation are decimating the world’s trees, and there are only 2 intact giant forests remaining on planet earth. However, across the globe, some other phenomenon is causing standing trees to wither and die in record numbers, and at present, the problem is receiving considerable mention in California, where millions of trees are dying during the worst drought the region has seen in perhaps some 1200 years.

“We are seeing major tree die off everywhere in N. CA. On my property i’ve seen walnut, apple, cherry, mimosa, olive and pine trees die off in the past three months alone. I’m up in Tahoe and it’s the same with the mountain pines and my friends in Marin are seeing bay trees die off in strands.” – California farmer, Jamie L.

HJ: Everyone is on the path towards love.  It takes us all different amounts of time to ultimately get there, but it is our ultimate destination—to return to the wholeness, joy and peace of truest selves.  And forgiveness is an incredibly fast path to that destination.  Learn why and how in the great article below.

THE MOMENT OF CALM: Tips on forgiveness from Dada J.P. Vaswani

By Anjali Mani | The Mindful Word

What does it really mean to forgive? Oxford Dictionary describes it as the following: “Stop feeling angry or resentful toward (someone) for an offense, flaw, or mistake.” When we’re wronged by another human being, it can take years, sometimes lifetimes to overcome the hurt and the pain...

At this stage in history, many of us are fed up with “humanity.” Yet, we find goodness in people all day long, love one another, and manage to act kindly. So, we are made of light and dark. Unfortunately, however, our collective darkness has shrouded much a bright future for humanity. But with a little help from our friends, each of us, at any moment and for the moment, can act brightly and kindly — with excellence.

Outspoken climate science researcher and professor emeritus of conservation biology, Guy McPherson, is the one who planted in my head this notion of pursuing excellence at this crucial time in history. He speaks of exhibiting good manners, especially in the face of turmoil. This essay explores what I think is needed to pursue a life of excellence and what it might entail relative to our ailing biosphere and our own species on the edge of extinction (as communicated in this article from The Atlantic magazine.)
