Harmony?

21st october, 21:38

A full moon in aries...

from this month the moon moves into a more harmonious 

cycle of the full moon being in the same sign

 as the previous new moon...

for 15 months of  the reverse being true...

i found out at Into The Mystic
which led me to
The Aquarius Papers

I would say i started feeling

off balance with my moon times for a year or so,

so perhaps this has had some bearing.

I haven't been able to find any articles relating

astrology to pmt,

 but i'm sure the planets have a bearing

on how we are affected.

Red Moon

30th september, 22:47

i've been blissed out with energy levels zinging

then bam! 

today, joints ache & everything's an effort.

check the calendar... uh-huh

red moon approaches!

23:16

everything i've done has incurred some mis-hap

dropped the dog lead... daft dog ran off...

dropped a blind i was putting back up...

broke the little trinket dish that was my grans...

blah, blah on it goes.

planned to write loads

but the crystal thoughts of what about

have turned to turn to foggy remnants.

inspiration has officially hidden behind a cloud.

i ache, i'm tired, but not for sleep.

roll on tomorrow.

Full Moon Anger!

Moon-time misery has barely figured

apart from twice

when pmt occurred at full moon...

a few hours clouded by anger

an inexplicable rage

at what? i don't know

but i haven't had this before

a build up of pressure

like steam waiting to explode...

not like me.

22 september, 05:40

and of course it did.

explode.

and it went.

the red mist subsided 

and everything softened

23 september, 05:58

but... a conversation with someone 

mired in misery, depression & anger

who seeks my attention

but chooses not to be helped

he has exploded

towards others at work

a long time problem

of anger he can't contain

clarity. 

i think.

it is not the first time i have experienced 

the pain, the feelings

of others

but usually i recognise what is not mine

as my body moves towards menopause

 much is written about 

mood swings & scattered emotions

perhaps this expectation clouded my view

i overlooked the signs

perhaps some of the emotional swings

are due to an increased sensitivity

which for me 

seem to be at full or new moon

lessons to embrace

not fear

in order to don

the mantle of wise-woman
