Black Moons, Falling Stars and being who you are

I had this nice little conversation the other day with a gentleman co-worker of mine. We are no where near anything close to being in the same circles on this planet. Yet, for some reason I felt compelled to open my mouth. So it wasn’t really a conversation, it was more a sort of spilling of beans kind of thing. I can’t even remember the first words that tumbled out.

But I was telling him how nice it feels to finally come into my own. With the help of discovering all the astrological influences that have had such an impact on my being-ness all my life. As he was attentively listening I said: ” I never made much sense to anyone. Hell, I never even made sense to myself until I came across my Black Moon and the fears that had such a hold over me.”

My Black Moon is the fear of rejection, and all my life all my decisions have been based on that. Starting with the fact that my mother did not want any more children before I was (even) conceived. It was such a beautiful eye opener to me that I do not have to be a certain way to “make it” through life. That I have choices. Knowing my Black Moon, and keeping my previous responses to anything coming at me as a knowledge data base, I have managed to make much healthier choices for myself.

It was terrifying initially to go against the ingrained behavior of a life time and to make decisions, one at a time, based on the knowledge of how to overcome how my Black Moon has manifested itself in my life. It’s been a liberating experience. The way it literally feels to me, is how I have been stuffed in these extremely uncomfortable clothes all my life, belt too tight, crotch riding up, one sock sliding down my leg, etc etc. you get the gist here, and I am finally taking off and adjusting everything that has been rubbing against my beautiful soul like a small pebble caught in a shoe.

I can only encourage anyone to discover their own Black Moon (or their other astrological aspects), to have the tools to help you come into your own. Here’s the link to the book:
