Sun in Leo: The Courage to Claim Your Light

I look forward every year to the summer Sun’s journey through Leo. I use this as a time to recharge my batteries, amplify my inspiration, and burn through old habits and patterns of resistance and fear.

Leo energy has a direct connection to the Sun, which is why it’s often called the most powerful zodiac sign. Leo’s solar energy is filled with passion and vitality. It offers us the ability to live life to the fullest and burn through all types of resistance, fatigue, confusion and limiting perceptions of who we are. 

Leo requires us to be fully present. Because of its creative power, Leo energy can hold a strong shadow. Leo’s shadow can be active whenever we’re holding on to the past in any way, whether through fear of letting go, or feelings of resistance, frustration, anger or misplaced responsibility. In all these ways the intensity of Leo’s fiery energies can easily lead to stress and overwhelm.

 
Because the Sun is activating these energies now, this is a great time to work with any of these patterns that you are noticing are active in yourself. By connecting with the Sun’s light you can receive your own infusions of vitality and courage. You’ll find the inner strength you need to face any challenge in your life with optimism, inspiration and courage.

 

Sun In Leo: Inspired Courage

When the Sun is in Leo we have a unique opportunity to connect more fully to our own powers of inner radiance. In astrology Leo is ruled by the Sun, meaning that it holds a very unique quality of solar power and light.

The Major Arcana tarot cards for Leo shown below express the personal qualities that the Sun is activating for you now as it journeys through these energies.

The Osho card for Leo is called Courage. The image here shows the inner strength required to grow as an individual and express your unique beauty and creative powers. The light radiating from the flower shows the radiance of the light that we each radiate when we show up fully to our circumstances from the power of our hearts.  

True courage requires the willingness to be true to yourself. In order to germinate, a seed must shatter its protective coat and expand as a vulnerable shoot into new territory.  

Growing from a seed to a blooming flower can be an arduous journey. Every step of the way requires the willingness to face a new challenge in order to grow and flourish. We are all learning to bloom where we are planted.

The Lust card also represents Leo and beautifully expresses the transforming power of the inner flame of your creative Spirit. In traditional decks this card is known as “Strength.” The word Lust is short for “Luster”, referring to the powerful golden radiance of your inner light.
 
The figures in the card remind us of the story of Beauty and the Beast. As Beauty faces her fears, represented by the shadowy figures around her, she and the lion (her inner strength) transform into fiery gold. Together they heal and prepare to emerge in all their glory from the shadows of the past.

Above all else, Leo is about letting your light shine.
 
This is a time to hold nothing back. As you nourish the fire and vitality of your inner flame, you give yourself permission to fully express, without reserve, your unique individuality and creative power. In this way you can face your fears, rise above them with love, and live fully in the vitality of the present moment.
 

Creative Potential: Totality vs. Stress

As I write this message the Sun is transiting 23 Leo, which holds the beautiful archetype shown here of a daring circus performer. The text for this archetype is “In a circus, the bareback rider displays her dangerous skill.” 
 
Imagine yourself as the bareback rider. You are using all of your tools, body, mind, and spirit, to rise to the occasion and face your challenges with audacious courage, exhilaration and grace. Your horse represents your connection to your vast depths of inner power and spiritual support.
 
This expression of pure creativity and virtuosity represents what happens when we live from our inspiration. Leo’s fire gives us the courage to risk being a complete individual, our innate brilliance on display for all to see.
 
This reminds us that when we show up in totality, life can be filled with adventure and fun. The more we are willing to be fully available, to take risks, and to display our brilliance, the more we will inspire others to their own feats of courage.
 
Our challenges may seem insurmountable, however, our spirits have access to infinite creative powers.

Moving from Chaos to Order, Part II: The Tower and the Fool

I hope this message finds you well and that you are taking time to play and relax during these spacious days of summer. In the midst of our busy lives it’s important to find ways to nourish and restore body and spirit.

We are all continually learning to navigate our way from the turmoil of change to the calm of inner peace. Since writing last week’s post about Moving from Chaos to Order, I’ve been reflecting on the dynamic between the power of storms (the messiness and discomfort of life), and the way our spirits love adventure.

The more I explore my spirit’s love of spontaneity the less I am distracted by uncertainty. This allows for more synchronicities to appear, and encourages me to keep moving within and tapping into my natural sense of adventure and play.
 
The frequencies of change are everywhere, requiring us all to build new muscles to navigate the unknown. I’m inspired today to share some experiences and insights related to my own personal practices, including my connection to the tarot.  I find these universal teachings to be immensely valuable in my own ongoing process of awakening.

 

The Adventure of Change: The Tower and the Fool

 

Shown here is one of my favorite combinations in the tarot. Many of you know how much I love exploring the connections between astrology and tarot. I find that the archetypes in the cards beautifully express the ways we can find practical support through the energies of the planets and the zodiac. 
 
The two cards pictured here from the Osho deck, Thunderbolt (trad. ‘The Tower’) and the Fool, represent the planets of Mars and Uranus, which were conjunct a few days ago. 
 
Since both planets are powerful catalysts for change, when they come together the potentials for change are magnified. We’re in one such period of amplified change now.
 
Pervasive change IS happening. The important question is: How we will each respond? There are teachings held within these cards that can help us when we encounter unexpected challenges in our circumstance. As we learn here, the secret is always to move from mind to heart where our spirits reside. This is the journey from chaos to order. 

 

The Tower(pictured here as Thunderboltfrom the Osho deck) represents the creative consciousness of change. The lightning bolts represent new infusions of awareness, jolts of clarity and high-frequency charge that clear density and expand your connection to the light. 

Lightning also represents the intensity and shock of unexpected change. This isn’t necessarily a comfortable experience! The figures falling through space represent a kind of shattering and dismantling of what you have known or thought to be true. 

A Tower experience can happen externally as well as within, dismantling circumstances as well as beliefs, and even attachments to our own identity. This is all part of the process we call ascension and awakening.

The more you are able to receive these expansive energies of awakening and remain balanced in your heart, the more you can allow the Tower experience to clear the past. This quality of inner balance is represented by the flames within the chakras that are fueling the fire of your consciousness.

 

The Fool is a beautiful companion to the Tower.

The Fool represents your ability to live within the total freedom and unlimited potential that is held within the present moment. In this image, the Fool steps off the edge of the known world. This is a continual process. Step by step, moment by moment he is leaving the past behind, moving with open arms into the unknown.

The Fool’s clothing shows that he is guided from within. He wears green, representing the wisdom of living from his heart. His multicolored vest represents the four elements, showing his balance with nature. His open arms are white like wings, showing his connection to the guidance of his spirit. Red boots show his courage and the ability to choose each step with intention.

From the outside the Fool may appear foolhardy, even ridiculous. In the Taoist sense, however, the Fool is the master. He is the one who continually releases the past in order to be available to whatever is present in the moment. New adventures await. This is why the Fool is the number 0 in the deck, holding all of the potentials of the remaining 77 cards. 

When combined together, the Tower and the Fool represent unlimited potentials for transformation, and your ability to break free from all types of limitation. This is why I love working with this pair of cards!

The energies of these cards together are exciting and filled with creativity. They remind you of your ability to transcend uncertainty and fear of change by going within. Here you can experience the exhilaration of adventure that is held within each moment.

Breakthrough & Success: Spirit Always finds a Way

The more we learn to live from our hearts in the present moment, the more we experience our power to create. This image of a tree growing through cement and up the pole of a stop sign reminds us of our ability to reach for solutions beyond what we have been taught to believe is possible. 
 
We are powerful creators, more than we can even imagine. When we connect with our spirits in the present moment, we transcend what we have believed in the past.

Sun in Cancer: Moving from Chaos to Order

I’m inspired to connect today with a message of practical optimism during this time of enormous contrast and change.  We must all deal with these energies of change. It’s easy to feel overwhelmed by the intensity, and thrown off balance by frequencies of confusion, uncertainty, turmoil and fear.  

It’s easy to feel overwhelmed by the intensity of turmoil.
 
In order to connect with the positive opportunities that are available to us all it’s necessary to stay centered, connected and balanced within. I’m hoping that today’s message will provide some tangible touchstones for your own path of balance and inspired new creation.
 

Sun in Cancer: Finding Stability Within

The Sun activates the zodiac with high frequency consciousness and brings these energies alive. The tarot images shown here are the major arcana cards for Cancer, where the Sun currently resides. These cards beautifully express the qualities of inner stability, knowingness and connection to spirit that the Sun is making available to you now.
 
The Chariot (left) shows a warrior clothed in golden armor. The warrior represents you, receiving the protection and support of your Spirit’s light (gold) to help you stay balanced and stable during all types of movement and change.
 
In this image the principle of  stability during change is shown by the warrior sitting in the lotus position (focused within). He is holding the spinning wheel of fortune, which represents the infinite potentials of creation that are available in each moment.

The four pillars of the warrior’s chariot, pulled by four guardians, signify the balance and support of the four elements of nature that give us life.  The word ‘chariot’ is another name for your merkaba, which is the structure of light that houses and animates your body.

Altogether this card speaks of the importance of living from the power and light that resides within your heart. The warrior shows that when you are connected within to the light of your spirit you are able to remain fully present, flexible and secure. No matter what happens you can hold the intensity of all creative potentials, while remaining stable, safe and strong.
 
Awareness (right) is the card for Cancer from the Osho tarot. This image beautifully expresses the principle of the eternal presence of spirit that resides within. This inner spirit is the real ‘you.’ The image shows how the light of your Spirit is always present, and available as soon as you place your attention there in your heart.

This presence of your spirit is your true source of stability, especially during times of imbalance, change or confusion. The more you are able to live from inner awareness and the knowing of your Spirit, the more you can be fully present to your circumstances, while remaining balanced and centered within.

This is the true meaning of alchemy, and how we turn into gold.

 

Moving from Chaos to Order

The process of moving from chaos to order is a natural part of life. Each of us is always in some form of growth, some process of change.  The secret of moving from chaos to order – returning to balance no matter what the circumstance – is to build the habit of going within.

Like the eye of the hurricane, and the still point at the center of an old-fashioned merry-go-round, the more you get to center, the more quiet and still you become. In contrast, like the tumultuous clouds, the more we look outside of ourselves for stability the more we become caught in the swirling energies of the storm.
 
It only takes one breath to return within. Take a breath now. As you breathe move your awareness in your heart. Imagine your heart is breathing, and feel your awareness come back into your body. The more you are able to live from this awareness in your heart the more you move from the storm of turmoil into the quiet peace energy of Source.
 
This shift from mind to heart is what creates the golden armor of the warrior, strengthening your auric field so you can stay resilient and strong. The more you practice this shift the stronger and more stable you will become.
