Eclipse Season June 2020 Energy Update
Themes: Shadow work, Awakening, Ascension & Humanity’s Dark Night of the Soul
This past Friday’s epic full moon in Sagittarius concurrent with a lunar eclipse kicked off the 2020 eclipse season. This year's eclipse season will feature three eclipses: the former lunar eclipse we recently experienced on June 5-6, a summer solstice solar eclipse on the new moon June 20-21, and the third eclipse a full moon lunar eclipse on July 4-5. I find it helpful to think of each eclipse as its own portal, with the heightened energy encompassing a couple days around the actual event. Many are feeling the intensity of the rebirth portal of eclipse season this year and the re-birthing will go well beyond the summer eclipse season. This year the dynamic ascension energy will continue with an additional eclipse happening in November and in December of 2020.
Eclipses are like wormholes of consciousness evolution allowing for individuals and collectives to make quantum leaps, astrologically speaking they usually occur on a Full or New Moon. Eclipses also provide necessary cosmic support for shadow work. While this post is not intended to be a guide to doing your own shadow work, by way of a high-level overview if you are new to shadow work it was a phrase developed by psychologist Carl Jung, in many ways a pioneer of depth and archetypal psychology. Shadow work is doing the work of becoming consciously aware of and integrating all the aspects of ourselves that we have “hidden in the shadows” aka repressed, denied, overlooked or rejected because we deemed these parts to be unacceptable and/or unlovable. Shadow work is connected to healing the places in our lives, where we have been most deeply wounded and experienced the greatest trauma, both in our childhood-adolescence and even carrying over from past lives. We can hide what we fear are the ugliest parts of ourselves in the shadows and we can also hide our power and our greatest gifts in the shadows. (If you are new to shadow work it is highly recommended you work with a trained and trusted healer, mentor, therapist and/or shaman.)
Collectively this year throughout the landscape of 2020, humanity is going through a dark night of the soul and a healing crisis en masse. This current eclipse season is amplifying this energy of “shadows coming to the light.” While this may feel very intense and uncomfortable, it is a very necessary process for humanity to go through. Collectively humanity needs to stop avoiding and start facing its collective shadows in EVERY facet of existence. This includes the very, very important and dynamic #blacklivesmatter movement and the concurrent #c*vid19 pandemic.
What we are experiencing that looks like external crisis or chaos is what being on an awakening and ascending planet is all about. The old is dying to make way for the new. This includes healing all of the viral programming that’s infected our collective consciousness and that has inflicted suffering for way too long.
We are in this for the long haul and this new earth rebirthing process is a marathon NOT a sprint. Just as a baby is not birthed in one push, an entire planet is not rebirthed in one wave of energy. We cannot rush this process! In deep honor of the pain and suffering that all have experienced or may still be experiencing, as well as the pain and suffering of their entire ancestral lineage, we owe one another the gift of true deep authentic healing and listening.
In no way to dampen or distract from the importance of the continued support of the Black Lives Matter movement and healing racism all the way to the CORE and collective HEART of humanity, Spirit is asking me to clearly communicate that there will be continued shadow aspects of humanity that come up to be healed in waves, again stretching beyond this year's eclipse season. This collective shadow work goes incredibly deep and is not something you will likely (yet) see being given any airtime on mainstream media. It is up to us individually to do our own inner shadow work (which may include examining or reexamining beliefs around racism, white supremacy and white privilege) to help support the collective awakening and raise up the consciousness so that in time the individuals who are still deeply entrenched in denial and avoidance will awaken.
So, root down deep into the Earth kids and feel how much stronger you are when you are connected to your body and are committed to the process at hand. Collectively our souls signed up to be here now during these very dynamic times. Yes, you have what it takes to face and find the treasures within your own shadows. NO, it is not your job to take on anybody else's - or everybody else's - emotional shadow work and do it for them. Empaths and anyone healing codependency we are very compassionately talking to you. While no one needs to saved or rescued, everybody deserves to be acknowledged for how much they matter and their intrinsic contribution to the human race and the evolution of consciousness.
Please know it is ok to take necessary time outs to rest and restore, as and when needed. This includes time outs from the intensity of the energy reverberating through social media right now. Spirit has been showing me how the conversation on social media right now is like an emotional wildfire. It’s not contained. Fire has its alchemical purpose, it cleanses and purifies what is rotting, decayed, stagnant and old to prepare for new growth. However, if you feel yourself getting burned, take a step back so you do not burn out. In that same vein, drowning in emotional empathic overwhelm will not truly help you or anyone else either. So let rooting down and resting be daily priorities. Pace yourself and care for yourself in order to truly be able to show up and care for others. We need you strong for the long haul! You do not have to do everything and be there for everyone all at once and all the time. In fact thinking or believing that you do, is likely part of your own shadow wounds to tend to with love and compassion!
How to know when to take action and what actions to take?
Every day you can pray and ask Spirit, your heart, your Higher Self any of the following questions:
1) What work is mine to do Spirit?
2) How and who can I help serve in a way that honors the highest good of all involved?
3) What is being asked of me?
4) Please use me as a vessel of service and show me the way!”
You can also create your own question that is framed similarly to these. The answers will be different and come in different timing for all of us because we all have our unique roles to play. Do not be surprised if the answers that you get are surprising! This is a process of learning to more deeply trust yourself and your connection to Spirit. Spirit always answers the prayers of those who pray and ask to be of service to others.
Trust that your heart and Spirit will show you the aligned actions to take to support the greater healing and ascension of humanity at the right time and one step at a time.... whether it is protesting, donating money, holding compassionate space to listen to those who deserve to be heard, creating art, doing your inner healing work, educating yourself about white supremacy and race, anchoring the light or a delicious combo platter of all of the above. The process of acting based on the loving guidance of the heart (versus the fear-based directives of the mind) will likely take courage and ask you to stretch yourself beyond your comfort zone and beyond your outdated beliefs and limiting perspectives. This is what awakening and ascension is all about, embodied expansion. Each of you has decided to be here for this powerful collective journey of awakening and ascension. Each of you has a gift to give, a space to hold, a wise courageous heart and a capacity for embodying the infinite bigness of your spirit. A bigness that will always ask you to keep growing in your capacity to love yourself and love others the way everyone deserves to be loved.
Lastly, I feel these times are asking us to come together in beautiful ritual containers to hold sacred space for these deep conversations about things like racial injustice and healing hundreds of thousands of years of the wounds of patriarchy. Social media can be deeply fragmenting and is not always the most consciousness or compassionate way to approach deep healing or shadow work – which is better served through connection and coming together in real time and when safe to do so in real life. Let this message be an empowering call to action! Ask yourself and ask Spirit, what roll you can play in creating and facilitating these “contained healing and conversational spaces” in your family, workplace, community, peer & friend group, etc?
Thank you for being here now and doing your part to anchor the light. We see you and we honor you.

QUANTUM HEALING IS THE NEW PARADIGM OF HEALING
Heal your Soul beyond the “limits” of time and space.
With this service, expand into the quantum field — the invisible web of consciousness and infinite intelligence that unifies all of life — for rapid growth and transformation.
When I connect on your behalf with the quantum field, true and lasting healing – beyond what you may have ever believed was possible – is made possible.
We're all meant to access this type of healing, yet very few of us have the capacity to do it on our own. That's why you need to work with a professional, master intuitive healer. Many of my clients are professional intuitives, therapists, coaches and healers themselves. They require a high level of integrity and expertise. That is why they choose to work with me. A quantum healing session with me goes where talk therapy, life coaching and more basic forms of energy healing – like reiki – cannot.
