Eclipses bring matters to light that have been repressed, and this lunation is urging us to be honest with ourselves — to free ourselves from the old and move into newness. I think I used to tell myself I was ready before, out with the old and in with the new. But this time, I am really ready.

It’s comforting to hold on to what we’ve always known, even if what we’ve always known was chaotic. I think I like holding on to memories because those memories come with feelings. I know my feelings are intense and they run deep — sometimes it’s too much for me to even handle, but I somehow handle them, like I handle everything else in life.

Sometimes I catch myself in a panicked state of mind, wanting to chase, but I want to surrender this eclipse and let go. Let go and let God lead the way. What’s meant for me will find its way to me.

I think I’ll spend time this weekend alone, meditating and taking it slow. I’ll be sure to look out for the signs from the universe — they are always there. Often I find myself feeling alone, and that’s not a bad thing; I like being alone, but I need to remember I am never truly alone.
