Hoping for good weather for Tuesday night but if its too cold or the rainy no worries we will have this indoors. There will also be an eclipse of this blood moon so don't miss this chance to set your intentions the energies will be high!

Full Hunter’s Moon or Full Harvest Moon – October 8th 6:51 am

This full Moon is often referred to as the Full Hunter’s Moon, Blood Moon, or Sanguine Moon. Many moons ago, Native Americans named this bright moon for obvious reasons. The leaves are falling from trees, the deer are fattened, and it’s time to begin storing up meat for the long winter ahead. Because the fields were traditionally reaped in late September or early October, hunters could easily see fox and other animals that come out to glean from the fallen grains. Probably because of the threat of winter looming close, the Hunter’s Moon is generally accorded with special honor, historically serving as an important feast day in both Western Europe and among many Native American tribes.

I am going to be doing a Native American full moon ceremony at my house if anyone wants to come. I will have a fire and I will keep it short - like just 1hr or so... to participate write the date on a piece of paper and a few things you want to bring into your life in the coming cycle and then a few things that you would like to release that no longer serve you, meditate on these intentions and bring them with you. There is no charge for ceremony but donations are welcome in order to balance the exchange of energy if you wish. ($10 -20 is customary but whatever you can afford is fine)
If you have a drum or rattle or anything please feel free to bring it as we will join our energies in a short chant and dance to bring down the moon energy for us. I now have my own full sized native American hand drum so I do like to use it for a bit! Also if you feel so inclined please bring a log for the fire, weather permitting we do this outside around my fire pit.

Hope you can make it.... if not feel free to join in spirit!

With Love and in the Light, Cassie

Total lunar eclipse!
The total lunar eclipse takes place on Wednesday, 8th October 2014, 10:54:35 am (CEST) simultaneously with the full moon. However, it will only be completely visible in countries of the Pacific region (Australia, New Zealand, East Asia, Hawaii, West Coast of North America etc.). Here you find all information inclusive a summary of different time zones for large cities:

The Full Moon Fire Ceremony is an ancient one passed down from Incan times to the people living in the Andes. It is a time for healing, reflection, and gratitude; a time to be able to come to the Fire with your innermost prayers. Since the Full Moon is such a powerful time in between waxing and waning, it is a time where you can let go of what no longer serves you and you can pray for what you feel would make you more whole and would like to bring into your life. We pray, release and bring in while knowing that this is what we want. We understand and are open to the reality that it is in the Creator's timing that things happen - not on ours. Yet, we must meet half way - this is where free will enters and why we chose to stand by the Sacred Fire and pray. You bring an offering to the Fire that is made from nature that is burnable: a stick, flower, pine cone, etc. Spend some time with the item, and with your intention put into the offering what ever you want to release, heal, or bring into your life. As we stand by the Fire chanting, drumming, and rattling we are brought closer to the Universal Light Source, or who the Andean people call Wiracocha.
