How to be spiritual in the modern world

Published on by andycandypants1 Comment

I bet you have heard before the saying, ” have you found your tribe yet” well in this crazy, hectic, social media filled world its hard not to want to be part of something bigger than yourself. These days there is more spiritual “tribes” and religions around that its hard to figure out what one do you feel more comfortable and connect with.

Spirituality has so many definitions and meaning to each person that one is not more important than the other, so how can you incorporate your curiosity, creativity and gain wisdom in your life?  Here is a guide to increasing awareness and strengthening your relationship with yourself and the wonderful world around you.

  •  There is not right or wrong way to express yourself.

 

  •  Find someone who is in line with your values and that you admire. Let them guide you.  Who inspires you? Who drives and motivates you to change and grow for the better? It can be someone of this time or a previous life!

 

  •  Use the Moon as a guide. Yes our ancestors before us have been using the Moon as a guide, for rituals, agriculture, manifesting and healing. The Moon controls the tides and water on earth so what makes you think it can’t rule our emotional? our body is made up of 70% water,  Use the Moon phases as a guide to helping you through the month, New Moons are for manifesting, Full Moons area time for releasing that which no longer serves a purpose in our life – people, emotions, habits.

 

  • Smudging. Burn some white sage to cleanse your home, office, anything that occupies your personal space. Sage is traditionally been used for healing, cleansing AND PURIFYING  and medicinal purposes. Smudging is a great way of dispelling any bad left of energy and negative influences. it’s believed the left over smoke detox and purifies a room,home, object and person.. give it a try!

 

  • Use your intuition instead of your logic. Ever get that ” Gut feeling” when you knew that knot in the pit of your stomach was telling you something than your brain was registering was right.. ” I just had that feeling, The bad feeling wouldn’t ease up, we have an internal compass that guides us, that feeling is the balance between the head and the heart.. start listening you will be surprised on how well it guides you.

 

  •  Start off small. If it all seems to much to begin with and nothing seems to resonate with you, take small steps at a time.  New belief systems and practices can be overwhelming so take it back a step and do what feels right for you.

 

  • Gratitude. Practicing gratitude is essential key element to a happy life. If you want to read about gratitude and the power it holds read my article here. The power of gratitude 

 

  • Complain less! There is no point wasting your time, energy and emotions on situations and circumstances you can’t change.

 

  • Don’t think about the value of money! Stressing about money causes you to attract a negative frequency and it can weigh you down. Simplify your life, do what your heart tells you to do. You can afford a happy, fulfilling life, what brings joy to your life? rather than determining whether it will be cost-effective just do it, don’t deny yourself the pleasures of life because of some monetary detail, don’t base your happiness on a discount. If we focus on the lack in our life, or a price tag you create a barrier of resistance. Don’t make money the guiding principle for what you have or do or your soul happiness, free yourself from placing a price on everything you do and have, try to see the value on everything and not the dollar price after all the world of spirit does not have a dollar price on the actual value of something.

Just remember every moment of your life is an opportunity to start fresh, no one wins or looses as a person and you can always dance to the beat of your own drum.Take every sweet unexpected moment as blessing and enjoy life.

 The Sun in Aquarius trines the Moon in Libra.

The Moon in Libra opposes Uranus in Aires and conjunts Jupiter in Libra.

The Moon in Libra opposes Uranus in Aires and conjunts Jupiter in Libra. With the Moon and Jupiter in Libra there is an added component of good luck, harmony and attention to our relationships.  The Sun in Aquarius trines the Moon in Libra so here we see that added element of intelligence. Today like yesterday the atmosphere is ideal for romance, but less intense than the actual valentines day. Today extend the love, extend that romantic mood from yesterday and do something fun with the one you love, as today is more clam and less intense than the actual valentines day. Today extend the love, extend that romantic mood from yesterday and do something fun with the one you love, as today is more clam and more natural overtone.

Have a great day

The Moon in Leo opposes the Sun and Mercury in Aquarius.

Mercury in Aquarius forms a sextile to Venus in Aries today.

The Moon in Leo opposes the Sun and Mercury in Aquarius. Than the Moon Sextiles Venus in Aires. Wow this is an amazing day for new beginnings, a new job, a new relationship, having an interview. Any kind of practical or physical circumstances that you can put out there in the world today will have positive outcomes. Today is the day to do so! This is because you will be more switch on, confident, articulate and you will find that you can put your ideas into practice. Communication and your thought process is sassy , quick, very new age and upbeat if you have been dreaming of that holiday maybe today you can put a deposit down or get out a map and plot the places you want to see! Anything you can put out there in the world today that benefits your dreams and the dreams of those close to you, well today is the day to do so. You can thanks the universe for this – because you will be more switched on, confident, articulate, focused and you will find that you can put your ideas into practice, and these ideas will be strong so if your gut tells you to peruse something go for it.

Mercury in Aquarius forms a sextile to Venus in Aries today. When Fire and Air combine we MUST take care when negotiating, please clarify feelings and miss communication particularly in love, with family and any partnerships and plans. Have a discussion with others and make sure that you are on the same path and have the same understanding. When Mercury the ruler of communication, travel and the mental realm dances with Venus the planet of love and creativity gives our charm a boost , social grace, romantic overtures, grand gestures of love, self-love and sensuality. We’re inclined to verbal or analyze our feelings and relationships more than normal. We might also communicate with more warmth and style and try to see others point of view.

The Moon is in Leo all day, reaching full tonight. How exciting as we are so close to the  Full Moon  Lunar Eclipse. Full Moons and Lunar Eclipses bring issues in our lives to fulfillment. have you felt the build up of intense emotions this week? People acting impulsive or strange. Our emotions can and will heightened or those around you. I can tell you I have barely slept all week, but still full of energy and my emotions have been like a whirlwind, but on that note, thank you Universe, as it’s all been positive emotions with a dash of over thinking lower emotions but I am a Cancerian and Moon Child so that is natural around Full Moons.

This weekend however with all this intense lunar energy, often some drama may evolve. The areas of our life that seem to be a problem or not resolving even if you have tried every resource to fix them may see dramatic turns , when activated by the Eclipse , after which the path is clear to move forward.Something may  come  light at the time of the Full Moon. Remember Full Moons are a time of release so do a physical, spiritual, emotional and mental cleanse this weekend. Epiphanies are likely now and can propel us into affirmative action.

So  get in touch with your emotions, only so you can get a better idea of what needs to change, needs to be cleansed or what needs to go.

Have a great Lunar Weekend! Down here in Australia we will be getting the hottest weekend since 1800’s the high will be 108 Fahrenheit  that 43 degrees Celsius to all us amazing humans down under.

Happy Friday.

The Moon goes into playful Leo.

The Moon opposes Mercury in Aquarius and trines Venus in Aires.

The Moon goes into playful Leo. Today you will be confident, playful and your energy levels will rise. The Moon opposes Mercury in Aquarius and trines Venus in Aires. What an exceptional Thursday. The energy levels couldn’t get more creative, playful and highly intense. The air is lighter and there is more opportunities to have fun.. You will love the spotlight and your confidence will soar today. You will see things from a lighter point of view! Lively and fun is the theme today, plan something fun, meet up with others socialize, flirt, engage in activities that awaken the soul.

The Moon entered Leo this morning and is building towards full. The Full Moon in Leo occurring tomorrow night is actually a Luner Eclipse, but not the only Eclipse we see this month we will get the chance to witness a Solar Eclipse 26/2/17. Astrological speaking Eclipses are a time of significant discoveries, changes and epiphanies.

When the Sun in is Aquarius, astrology speaking it is a great time  for doing things outside of the box, new age and independent thinking, embracing change, taking radical actions and joining forces with other Kindred Spirits or people from your own tribe who have similar causes or ideals they are fighting for!Mercury is also in the sign of Aquarius, and our thinking and communication is radical and revolutionary.However the way we think and feel can sometimes be so Big, that the Bigger Picture is all we focus on and we are not so interested in the details.

Have a great day everyone , Many blessings

The Moon is in Cancer.

The Moon forms a  T-square with Jupiter, Pluto, and Uranus.

The Moon is still in its home sign of beautiful Cancer. The Cancer Moon opposes Pluto in Capricorn, it than squares Jupiter in Libra and Uranus in Aires, so again we have a lot of energy with a lot of planets interacting today.

Today you will find emotional strength and have the ability to overcome challenges. So any problems that felt so big on Monday and Tuesday that you thought were too large to overcome,  will start to shrink! They become the right size and you will see them for what they truly are and you will gain a proper perspective. Today with this semi grand square in our skies you will find it easier to commit to working through difficult these problems now. Tap into your  inner master and genies and put it to work to problem solve.

Again you will succeed the most today if you can connect with other people. So whatever you are doing today include others… Whether its your job, at the gym at home , or just simply having conversations with others, if you have the chance to include others and bring them along do so, brainstorm with others, get support and you will utilizing these energies at their highest peak.

The Moon goes into wonderful Cancer.

Mercury moves into  Aquarius.

The Moon goes into wonderful Cancer today and we see Mercury move out of grounded Capricorn and go into forward thinking Aquarius. Mercury in Aquarius is brilliant , its beautiful and fantastic.Mercury in Aquarius is so happy and comfortable in this planetary position , your thoughts will be free-flowing today, you will be able to find inspiration all around you ,you will be able to think outside the box and your connections with others will be strong. Communication today is much clearer and very focused compared to yesterday, you can find yourself having the time and space to be innovate , you will have new ideas and create some extraordinary and beautiful projects.Inspiration will be all around you today. Just watch out for the shadow side of Mercury in Aquarius. We can tend to be over rebellious and over revolutionary in our ideas and communication. We can also get stuck in the way we think and feel is the right way,and it can be easy to annoy, agitate and walk all over how others think and feel.

The Moon enters Cancer today and  we seek out comfort and familiarity today. Surround yourself with family and friends, throw a dinner party, go for lunch, entertain for those you love. When the Moon is in Cancer we love the comforts of home and family and well yummy food, so why not combine all three and have a nurturing time.

As the Moon gets closer and closer to being Full, it’s time for stamina and charging ahead. Don’t give up. Don’t allow any doubts, fear or the ego to spoil your plans and manifestations. We are what we think and feel. We are moving closer to a Full Moon in Leo this Friday can you feel the build up of energies?

Have a great day!

The Moon leaves Aires and enters Taurus.

Venus leaves dreamy Pisces and enters Aires.

There will be big changes today as Venus moves out of Pisces and into Aires. The planet of love, beauty  and creativity  goes from feeling and sensitivity of Pisces to the more direct and focused Aires . Venus in Aires energy is a lot tougher , a tad harsher and a lot more focused on getting your own insight. Some may have been picking up this energy over the past few days. The energy is more of ” My needs ” My emotional satisfaction” and more of”lets gets these met before i can focus on you”. Its very forward, intense passionate and at times confronting energy . Venus will be touching on  Aires until June as we have Venus retrograding in March back through the signs. However when Venus is in Aires the energy and intent can also be overly focused on me and what i want and not necessarily on others.Aires is a  sign that likes a lot of freedom and independence we are bold, fresh, and a little impatient when it comes to matters of the heart.

The First Quarter Moon occurs in the sign of Taurus and it forms a square with the Sun in Aquarius. This leaves us wanting and need some predictability especially on an emotional level, in spite of how much progress we are making. Whatever projects we started off at the New Moon should be making progress, and the Quarter Moon phase means that we may be facing our first obstacles and we may feel the need to take action which is very possible as the Moon goes into grounded Taurus.

Have a great day and an amazing weekend.

Mercury in Capricorn squares Jupiter in Libra.

The Moon in Aries trines Saturn in Sagittarius, conjunts Uranus in Aires,  and squares Pluto in Capricorn.

The Moon in Aires forms a lot of relationships with planets today. The Moon trines Saturn in Sagittarius, conjunts Uranus in Aires, opposes Jupiter in Libra and squares Mercury and Pluto in Capricorn. Today the energies floating around seem complicated and complex, so it makes for a great day to really focus on your own needs, focus on your own projects and what you can do to really make changes in them. Today stay within yourself or as much as you can to work and focus this manic energy on you, as it may not be the best day to be working with others. Communication breakdown will occur as Jupiter can be excessive and with the Moon and Uranus in Aires communication can be some what forward and volatile. You may lose your patience and tempers could flare up today.

Jupiter in Libra squares Mercury in Capricorn. Jupiter in Libra asks that we seek to find common ground when working with others,and to compromise and to have compassion with others especially when it comes to communicating and the way we think and feel. However be aware that today our thoughts and actions may be expansive and exacerbated, we may  blow things out of proportion.Today we may exaggerate, and have a hard time putting our ideas to practical use under this influence.Today however can be great for learning, teaching and speaking Truth!

Have a great day Andy J xx
