(00:01): On may 26, we'll be experiencing a full moon
in Sagittarius with a lunar eclipse.
On top of it, say, now full moons are already intense enough as it is, but then add an eclipse
on top of it.
And it feels more like this, but don't worry because my guides have given very simple advice
on how to work with the energy of this full moon eclipse.
So you can move forward in your life with a lot more clarity.
Enjoy in this video, you'll learn the top characteristics for this full moon in Sagittarius.
Then we'll go into the one key theme for this full moon, and then I'll share two simple
practices that you can use during this full moon to help harness its power.

All right, so it's happening on may 26.
We're having a full moon plus lunar eclipse in Sagittarius.
So let's break these parts.
Let's break this astrological event down in parts to make it easier for us to interpret
the energies and know how to work with the energies.
All right.
So the first part let's go into the full moon aspect of it.
Okay.
(01:30): So whenever there's a full moon, full moon
occur once a month and whenever there's a full moon, this is an energy of completions.
This is an energy of harvesting reaping what you sow.
This is an energy of just a lot of completions, a lot of endings completing cycles.
This is also, um, this word is coming into very strongly, not just for full moons in
general, but for this one in particular, I've really been, um, my guides have been emphasizing
the word, uh, the term maturation or maturation of energy.
Okay.
So it's almost like we're reaching a certain level of spiritual and emotional maturity
within us.
Okay.
So our energy is maturing.
And so that is really been emphasized being emphasized here in this full moon.
Okay.
So this is, this is generally what happens in a full moon.
There's a lot of full moons are traditionally where farmers harvest.
(02:24): Okay.
So they plant things in new moons and then they harvest and full moons.
So this is when the cycles, the there's a cycle that's ending, uh, there's major things,
ending, major completions and a lot of maturation of energy.
Okay.
So that's, that's the aspect, that's the full moon aspect of, of this astrological event
now to the lunar eclipse aspect of this astrological event.
Okay.
So lunar eclipses, what they do is they activate, what's known as your lunar notes.
Okay.
Now, if you don't know anything about lunar nodes, uh, there you have a South node and
a North in your astrological chart and when a lunar eclipse comes in, it really highlights
these aspects, especially that North node.
Okay.
And so essentially what your North node is, it's sort of your destiny where your soul
wants you to go.
So when there's a lunar eclipse, the aspects, these lunar lunar nodes are very highlighted
and activated within your chart is especially if your North and South node fall under the
sign in which the eclipses is, is at, okay.
(03:28): So if you have a North or South node in the
sign of Sagittarius, then this is really going to play out in the full moon that's coming
up.
Okay.
So I'm not going to go deeper into North and South nodes and what they actually mean because
I shot a whole video on that.
I shot a whole video on the importance of the North node, and I'll leave links to that
video in the description box below.
So you can watch after this one, aside from activating your lunar nodes, lunar eclipses
really eclipses in general, they really speed up and accelerate things.
They amplify things.
Okay.
So when you have an eclipse and eclipse just takes the energy of the full moon and just
exponentially increases, it speeds up and accelerates the energy.
Okay.
So eclipse is really do that, that they really accelerate energy.
And when it comes to, when it, when, when we're talking about a lunar eclipse, what's
happening is in general full moons, you can see the full moon really brightly because
the whole, that whole front surface of the moon is being lit by the sun.
(04:27): And that's why you can see these beautiful,
full moons.
But when you have a full moon plus lunar eclipse, what's happening is the, the, the moon is
being hidden from the sun.
So the earth is actually sandwiched between the moon and the sun.
And that's why in full moon, lunar eclipses, they're not bright.
They're not bright because the, the earth is, is kind of blocking the sunlight from
hitting the moon.
All right.
So this aspect of the, the lunar eclipse makes it a little bit different type of full moon
because it's not bright like regular full moons.
The third aspect of this astrological event is the Zodiac sign in which this full moon
lunar eclipse is happening, which is in Sagittarius.
So whenever an astrological event, like a full moon happens within a specific Zodiac
sign, then the, the full moon takes on the energy of that Zodiac sign.
(05:17): So in this case, we're talking about Sagittarius.
That's my, that's my, uh, my natal chart.
That's my sign.
Um, Sagittarius is this full moon.
So that is the Zodiac sign of the truth seeker, the seeker in general, that's the, that's
the, the, the sign of a constant expansion.
So Sagittarius are it's, it's a sign of constant expansion, world traveler, adventure, explore
truth seeker.
These, these are some of the characteristics of, of Sagittarius Sagittarius is of fire
energy.
Okay.
So it's a fire sign.
So very fiery, very passionate on the flip side, Sagittarius can be an impulsive energy.
Okay.
Especially if the, if the fire aspect of it isn't tempered.
Okay.
So these are some of the characteristics of Sagittarius that then play into the full moon.
That's coming up, especially the lunar eclipse too, because the lunar eclipse just amplifies
the characteristics of this Zodiac sign.
(06:14): So these are some of the general characteristics
for this full moon, but there's one of them that I really want to focus on.
There's a major theme that I want to focus on.
And this takes me to, to part two of the video, which is the one key theme for this full moon.
Okay.
So the one key theme for this full moon, actually, when I, when I tapped into the energy and
I got a feel for the energy, I immediately got the image of a turtle.
Okay.
Cause it seems a little bit weird, but I immediately got the image of a turtle.
My guides gave me that image as a way to convey the idea that, uh, the, the key, you know,
there's a saying with the turtle that goes, you know, slow and steady wins the race, okay.
Slow and steady wins.
The race says the turtle and that essentially that image of the turtle, that image of slow,
slow and steady wins.
(07:01): The race is really the main theme for this
full moon.
And it was really emphasized a lot by my guides because what's happening is this slow and
steady wins the race, this, this turtle, the turtle moves very slowly flows through nice
and slowly.
And that's the energy that's coming in as the major theme for this full moon.
And it could seem like it's a little bit, um, you know, a little bit contrary to the
energy of Sagittarius.
And that's one of the reasons why it's, it's really important for us to work with kind
of even working with the totem animal of the turtle, even invoking that spirit animal could
be a great way to work with this full moon energy.
And the reason that the turtle is coming in, um, as a major theme for this full moon is
because what's happening is where this full moon is occurring at a time where there's
enormous amounts of acceleration.
(07:54): We've been in a totally accelerated speed
of evolution since the start started the COVID pandemic in the beginning of 2020.
And it's really accelerated us into what's known as the new age of Aquarius, right?
So there's already intense energy movements occurring in general, but then when you layer
it on top of this full moon, plus lunar eclipse in Sagittarius, which is a sign that can be
impulsive and very fiery and always wanting to be on the move.
Now you can see that the energy can, it can get so powerful that your system can actually
short circuit.
So my guides are giving the image of a turtle as, as a way to kind of impart this message.
And that is that we need to temper the impulsive and fiery energy of Sagittarius.
Okay.
So another way of saying this is slow down, go wth the flow, right?
Like slow down, relax, go slowly, move slowly.
(08:56): Okay.
This is, these are, these were saying the same thing in different words, but really
what this turtle energy is coming in.
It's, it's saying it's helping us to not short circuit, especially if you're a fire sign,
because whenever an astrological event occurs in your Zodiac sign, you're even going to
be effected by this more.
So that's, that's me.
And that's all of the Sagittarius people out there.
We even have to be more careful when it comes to this energy because it'll affect us even
more, but this is affecting everyone.
Really the Sagittarius energy is coming in to really amplify this, giving it a bit of
a fiery, fiery, full moon fiery characteristics.
And so we need to temper that energy, really temper that energy slow down, slow and steady,
wins the race, be nice and slow, be meticulous in our movements.
And that's the way that we could prevent ourselves from short-circuiting.
(09:49): And from going into exhaustion, uh, with all
of these accelerated energies that are not just from the lunar eclipse and full moon,
but compounded on all of the other changes that are occurring on the planet right now.
Okay.
So that's, that's the biggest theme that my guys have been giving for this full moon is
that image of the turtle.
So don't forget it as you're working with this full moon energy now to part three of
the video, the top two practices for this full moon.
So when I was tapping into the energies and feeling, feeling into the energies of this
full moon, it's interesting because the energy felt different.
So usually when I'm working with the full moon and a full moon lunar eclipse, there's
a lot of ceremony involved.
I like to do a lot of ceremony during a full moon and lunar eclipses.
(10:32): There's a lot of ceremony involved, but when
I was tapping into this energy, there was, there was a difference in the energy and the
practices that the guides were recommending for it.
Okay.
So you can still use ceremony, nothing wrong with that.
I love doing ceremony in a, you know, for full moon and by ceremony.
I mean, you know, lighting some candles, having some drumming music, using sacred smoke to
kind of clear up the space, all of the things that we generally use for a ceremony, you
can still do that, but the guides have really been focusing on two practices, two very simple
practices, but two practices that will, again, help kind of embody the turtle energy, the
totem animal turtle.
Um, so I'm going to share those practices with you.
The first one that the guides are really emphasizing and probably the most important is breath.
(11:19): Okay.
So breathing, it's a focus on the breath and, and it could be just something as simple as
you sitting down, you can do, maybe start with your ceremony, do your thing, and then
sit down in the middle of the ceremony, just sit down, close your eyes and begin to focus
on breathing.
And the type of breathing that the guides are emphasizing here is it's not a fast fiery
breath.
Okay.
Cause that, that would really rile up even more energy.
It's a slow deep breath.
So it's, what's known as belly breathing or di formatic breathing.
Okay.
So this is the type of breathing that's coming from the belly.
It's very deep.
Okay.
So this is the type of breathing that you can emphasize when working with this full
moon energy, you take a nice deep breath.
Let's actually do one together right now.
Okay.
So three, two, one belly breath
(12:09): And then release.
(12:16): See long, deep inhales, long, deep exhales.
Okay, nice and slow.
This is the type of breathing that's very, very good to use right now during this full
moon.
And just by doing run round, I don't know if you felt it, but I could feel it just by
doing one round of a slow, deep breath.
My system comes down immediately.
And that's that specifically why the guides brought this practice up because by focusing
on the breathing on these deep belly breaths, what you're doing is you're calming your system
down, which is you're embodying that turtle energy.
Okay.
You're just calming your system down.
You're calming the fiery energy of Sagittarius.
You're calming that down.
You're bringing your system more into a state of relaxation and alignment.
The second practice that the guides have been focusing on is on body relaxation, actual
body relaxation.
So, so I feel it as like a softening of the body, just to softening of the body, that's
really being emphasized right now.
(13:17): And this goes hand in hand with the breathing
technique.
And it goes hand in hand with embodying that turtle energy, right?
Like just soften, soften, soften your body.
Uh, and this could be done with gentle stretches with, um, just gentle movements.
It could be even done with, um, with self massage, if you want to.
So the, the point here, it could even be done with the breathing.
So when you start to do deep belly breaths, that deep diaphragmatic breathing, when you
start to do that deep, slow breathing, what you do is your body starts to relax automatically,
right?
So, so this is a great way to actually compliment the breathing exercise.
As you just start to focus on just relax, you know, you can round, you can just do some
circles with your shoulders and just relax, command your body to relax as you're doing
the deep breathing exercises.
(14:11): Okay.
This body relaxation is also going to calm the energy system down.
And so you're going to be more in an energy of flowing in an energy of just, um, you know,
of just kind of moving forward and enjoying life, but enjoying life in a nice calm kind
of way.
All right.
So, so these are the two practices that the guides have have emphasized.
And again, you can keep doing your ceremonies if you want to, there's nothing wrong with
that.
You can do your regular full moon ceremonies, but just really emphasize, really focus on
these two key practices that are really going to help in this intense, full moon plus lunar
eclipse.
